Jiang Xiaofei could hear herself asking with a trembling voice.
"So, you saved her first and then came back to save me?"
A chill spread up along the coccyx, making Jiang Xiaofei involuntarily loosen the hands that were restraining Xue Weidong. She had never been so clearly aware of her position in Xue Weidong's heart. As a man and woman who were about to get married, she was actually not as good as Su Niannian. It was absurd and ridiculous!
So what is she...
Xue Weidong noticed that the person on his back suddenly became depressed, and he quickly explained: "No! I didn't see you just now, Xiaofei, I'm sorry."
"What about Su Niannian? Did she hide my existence too?!" Jiang Xiaofei's eyes gradually turned cold. As a girl in the passionate love period, she kept asking, "What is your relationship with her? Who are you? What do you want to do? Xue Weidong, I seem to have never understood the real you.
You had a falling out with Jin Chuan tonight, and it seems like you didn't leave yourself any way out. Do you not want to stay in the research institute anymore? Or do you not want to live anymore? Was the fuse of your quarrel because of... Su Niannian?"
The last two words made Jiang Xiaofei almost unable to utter. Facing her series of questions, Xue Weidong remained silent, which was rare. Every question precisely touched upon the secret between him and Su Niannian, which was not suitable to be told to outsiders.
The long silence brought the warmth between them to the freezing point. Jiang Xiaofei struggled to slide down from his back. After a while, after meeting Xue Weidong's concerned eyes, Jiang Xiaofei tried her best to make her smile look decent.
"I know the answer in your heart."
"You don't have to say it if you don't want to. No matter what you want to do, it will have nothing to do with me in the future. Xue Weidong, you should let someone else accompany you on this road."
She was about to leave, but her hand was grabbed by Xue Weidong. Jiang Xiaofei shook him off fiercely. She did the same action two or three times, and she became angry. Jiang Xiaofei's eyes gradually turned red. She glared at Xue Weidong and said through gritted teeth, "Don't force me! Jin Chuan must not know that it was you who rescued Su Niannian, right? Otherwise, you might not be able to come out safe and sound!"
I can't stop him from going crazy. Who gave Su Niannian the antidote? Was it you? ! Xue Weidong, what do you think of me? A piece of stone that can be used to climb to the sky, or a piece of linen that can be thrown away after use? In your heart, I will never be as good as Su Niannian. You frequently go back and forth between the art troupe and the family compound! Can you tell who you are doing this for? Let's break up——!"
"No, I don't want to be separated! It was Captain Gu who took her back, it was Captain Gu!" Xue Weidong's Adam's apple rolled and he felt extremely uncomfortable. But those secrets could not be told to anyone. That was the oath he had made to Su Niannian.
Even though Jiang Xiaofei cried and made a fuss, Xue Weidong did not give a clear explanation in the end. He just followed her and silently sent her back to the family quarters. From beginning to end, Jiang Xiaofei never looked back.
Xue Weidong watched the other person's back as he left, then looked up at the sky. He finally understood why Su Niannian wanted to get rid of Jin Chuan quickly. It wasn't fast enough, not fast enough! He had to speed up!
I just hope that I will have the chance to explain to Jiang Xiaofei by then.
He wants to survive.
…
The next morning.
When Su Niannian woke up, Fubao was already crawling on the bed. She grabbed her son into her arms and kissed him twice. Su Niannian then put on her clothes and went downstairs. In order to cover up some traces, she specially picked out a shirt to wear. Su Zhaodi, who had just sent her child home, saw her coming downstairs and breathed a sigh of relief for no reason.
"When my brother-in-law came back with you last night, I thought something had happened and I was so scared! By the way, breakfast is in the pot, Nian Nian, my mother left Xiangyang Village yesterday. In order to save time, she took a county truck and took a shortcut. She estimated that she would reach Ning County this afternoon.
You decide whether I should go pick her up or you should wait for her to go to the provincial capital together. Fubao is still young, and I am always a little nervous when I take him out..."
Because Fubao had been lost once, everyone wanted to treat him like the apple of their eye. Su Niannian picked up a sweet potato from the pot, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go pick her up. Gu Zhiye will take care of her in the provincial capital for the time being, so I'm not in a hurry."
Fubao clung to her and wouldn't get off.
Su Niannian specially asked the military wife in the family compound to help apply for a car to pick up Shen Xiu'e at the station. All this was to save time. When Shen Xiu'e came out of the station carrying a lot of bags, Su Niannian once again felt that it was a good thing that she had applied for a car in advance, otherwise, she would have been very tired.
The perceptive little soldier quickly stepped forward to help Shen Xiu'e get her things. The latter's eyes rolled around and she looked around. She felt that her eyes were not enough. When her butt touched the car seat, she didn't even dare to sit down. She just whispered, "Oh my God! There is still a car to sit in. I am lucky to have you. No wonder Zhaodi and his wife don't want to go home. This building, this car, I don't want to go back either!"
Su Niannian glanced at her vaguely. She had a neutral impression of this second aunt. She had not forgotten the sarcastic words she had said to her when she first went to the countryside.
Su Niannian's status has risen to a new level now, and she is no longer someone Shen Xiu'e can talk about. Even Su Niannian herself does not know that her position in Shen Xiu'e's heart has long surpassed that of Su Zhaodi. It is said that when one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit. At this moment, Shen Xiu'e only wants to cling to her niece's thigh and live the life of a city dweller.
Seeing Su Niannian's unhappy expression, she immediately put on a shy face and said enthusiastically, "Niannian, what's wrong? I don't know how to talk, I can only speak from my feelings. By the way, this time when I came to the northwest, your second uncle asked me to bring you a lot of pickled meat. It's your favorite game. No tickets are required. If you like it, ask him to send it to you next time!"
Su Niannian straightened her sitting posture and reminded the other party: "Aunt, you don't have to worry about food. I will give you living expenses. Your main task here is to take care of grandma and big brother."
"I understand, I understand! Don't worry, I'm the best at taking care of people. When my mom was paralyzed in bed, I went back to her house to take care of her. I have plenty of experience, and I'm also good at taking care of children!"
"..."
Along the way, Shen Xiu'e kept chattering, and Su Niannian felt that she had never heard her so noisy in her life. After returning to the Su family, after Su Zhaodi's advice, she finally restrained herself a little. After packing up the things Shen Xiu'e brought, the two quickly rushed to the provincial capital. Gu Zhiye had limited time and it was impossible for him to stay in the hospital all the time. Su Niannian knew this.
When they arrived at the hospital,
She found that the only person waiting in the hospital was Gu Zhiye. Seeing the empty bed, she felt suffocated. Su Niannian's eyes went dark and she almost screamed, "Where's my brother?! Gu Zhiye! Where is my brother?"
