Chapter 12: It’s over. I accidentally exposed my true identity.



While blaming herself, she did not forget to carefully put the train ticket in a small box next to the mirror on the dressing table.

Before putting it away, she took a special look at the time on the train ticket. It was 9:30 in the morning.

She guessed that when Lu Zhengxiang went there, there was probably only one train left to Beijing at this time.

When she was lying in bed, she suddenly realized that she had spent two days in this era.

According to the current situation, she had no choice but to make the best of what she had. Survival was her top priority.

As she was thinking, she fell into a deep sleep.

After Lu Zhengxiang finished his meal, he washed the dishes and entered the house with a military green jacket slung over his arm, probably because he was sweating slightly from eating.

It’s a pity that Ruan Suhe had fallen asleep and didn’t see the smooth muscle lines on his arms.

Lu Zhengxiang consciously walked to the place where he slept on the floor yesterday, quickly spread out the mattress, simply covered himself with a thin quilt and lay down.

...

...

He was originally lying down facing the two little guys Tiedan and Ruoruo, but he didn't expect Ruan Suhe to roll over and appear in his sight.

He only looked for two seconds and immediately closed his eyes with some disgust. The saliva that was about to flow from the corner of Ruan Suhe's mouth, the half-open and half-closed sleepy eyes, and the heavy breathing due to obesity kept circling in his mind.

This forced him to turn his body over, face the wall and close his eyes to rest.

For a straight man like him, there is no way he can understand Ruan Suhe's behavior of giving up on himself and getting fat.

The morning arrived as promised. Because we were in the countryside, the air pollution was not as serious as it was in 2024. There was not a trace of haze.

Lu Zhengxiang was the first one to get up. It was difficult to adjust his biological clock in the army.

He tiptoed to fold up the mat and planned to go out for a five-kilometer run. Although he came back to recuperate, he did not intend to neglect the most basic training.

"Dad, where are you going? I want to go too."

Just as he quietly pushed the door open and was about to lift the curtain, Tiedan, who was half sleepy behind him, suddenly got up, put on his clothes and shoes quickly, and walked towards him with unsteady steps.

"I'm going for a run, do you want to go?"

Lu Zhengxiang didn't know what Tiedan was thinking. He half-knelt down and helped him fix the buttons on his clothes that he had remembered wrong, while asking him patiently.

"Go, I'll go." Little stars immediately popped up in Tiedan's eyes. He was so full of admiration that he nodded his little head like a chick pecking at rice.

The two of them simply washed up, opened the door, and ran slowly along the small dirt road in the village.

Taking Tiedan's physical strength into consideration, Lu Zhengxiang deliberately slowed down his pace.

"You don't know, the village committee secretary's family wants to kick out their eldest son who is a soldier. I heard they want to kick him out with nothing, and they don't plan to give him anything."

"Yes, yes, yes, I heard about it. I heard about it. Yesterday afternoon, the couple of the village committee secretary's family went to their eldest son's house to catch chickens to eat. The couple had no choice but to catch a big fat rooster."

"I'm not saying that as a person, you should still leave yourself some room for retreat. The couple from the village committee secretary's family treated their son like this. I'm afraid they will be punished by God."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, that's hard to say."

Lu Zhengxiang really didn't expect that so early in the morning, there would be people squatting under a big tree in groups of three or five discussing their own affairs.

"Shh..."

When Lu Zhengxiang and Tiedan ran into their sight, someone urgently called a halt. After they had run a distance away, they started talking in a low voice again.

Although Lu Zhengxiang remained calm, he couldn't help but admire Ruan Suhe in his heart. Only then did he understand what she meant by what she said yesterday.

He was a little worried that these rumors would affect Tiedan, so he took him to run around the path outside the village for about three kilometers before turning back.

When the two of them returned, Ruan Suhe and Ruoruo had already woken up.

"You are sweating so much, you must have gone for a run."

Ruan Suhe, who came out of the kitchen with porridge, just turned around and saw two figures, one big and one small, with sweat on their cheeks, who had just entered the door.

"No, Tiedan's clothes are all wet, he must change into something clean and fresh."

She originally wanted to hold back and not say anything, but she was worried that Tiedan might get sick, so her tone became even more unhappy.

Lu Zhengxiang did not refute anything, and took Tiedan's hand and walked into the bedroom.

Ruan Suhe saw this and walked towards the living room with the porridge in her hand with confidence.

"Someone on the way was discussing what happened yesterday afternoon."

The two of them changed into clean clothes, and Lu Zhengxiang walked into the living room and told them what he saw and heard in the morning.

"I guessed it. This is the effect I want. At least they can be quiet for a while."

Ruan Suhe took a sip of porridge and took over the conversation calmly.

Perhaps because no one came to disturb her sweet dream this morning, Ruan Suhe, who slept until she woke up naturally, forgot for a moment that she was a transmigrated soul, and unconsciously revealed her true nature.

Lu Zhengxiang, who had just sat down, noticed that the way she spoke was a little different from usual, and he had a lot of doubts in his heart, but he kept silent.

"Just take the things we packed yesterday. We'll buy the rest when we get to the family compound."

After the family of four finished their meal, while Lu Zhengxiang was helping to clean up the dishes, he looked up and talked to Ruan Suhe.

"Okay, I understand."

After Lu Zhengxiang helped carry the pots and pans to the kitchen, he did not come out immediately. Instead, he stood beside Ruan Suhe and helped wash the dishes.

Ruan Suhe was in a very good mood this morning, so she didn't notice his strange look at all. She washed the dishes by herself and even hummed a song accidentally...

By the time she realized that Lu Zhengxiang was standing next to her, it was too late: "Ahem, that... I'm just in a good mood, ahem."

In order to avoid exposing more clues, Ruan Suhe quickly ended the battle of washing dishes.

When Lu Zhengxiang went to buy the train ticket yesterday, Ruan Suhe secretly stuffed some of the original owner's private savings into the package.

On this point, Ruan Suhe was quite sure of the original owner's plan. Saving some private money could be used to prepare for some emergencies in advance.

"Have you packed? I just asked, Aunt Hu's ox cart is going to the county soon, and it can take us to the train station."

Lu Zhengxiang, who had been out for a while, lifted the bedroom curtain and walked into the room to ask.

"Oh, okay, okay, just these few packages, let's go."

As Ruan Suhe spoke, she picked up the package that contained her private money, and with her other hand she pulled Ruoruo, who was standing there in a daze, and walked out the door.

Tiedan was of course left to Lu Zhengxiang to take care of. That stubborn little boy still had a strong resistance to her, so it would be better to leave him in the care of Lu Zhengxiang on the way to the capital.

Strangely, after the family of four got on Aunt Tiger's ox cart, Ruan Suhe's right eyelid began to twitch inexplicably.
