Chapter 409 Let's go, let's go without stopping.
Jiang Nuanzhi immediately blocked Li Rong's large hand, and under his confused gaze, she took several deep breaths again.
He secretly reminded himself, "I'm just a man, what haven't I seen in this modern world?"
All the top male celebrities are her husbands. She changes her favorite every week. What's so great about that?
So what if Li Rong is a bit better looking, a bit taller, a bit stronger, and has a few nicely sculpted abs?
Cough cough cough, it's nothing serious.
Speaking of which, his kissing skills don't seem to be very good. In a daze, the image of her head being held tightly and restrained flashed through her mind again, and Jiang Nuanzhi's breathing became disordered again.
"Why is your face so red?" Li Rong's deep voice sounded, and the next second, a pair of dry, large hands gently covered her forehead.
"She doesn't have a fever, but is Anuan feeling unwell?"
"No! How could I be in trouble! Hehehe, I'm fine, are you alright?"
Jiang Nuanzhi jumped out of bed and stared intently at Li Rong.
Li Rong spread his hands and looked himself up and down: "Me? I'm fine, Anuan."
"Ahhh!"
Li Rong's words were cut off, and the next second, Jiang Nuanzhi covered her nightgown and stared at him with wide eyes.
"Li Rong, you! You, you, you!"
Jiang Nuanzhi pointed at him, speechless for a long time.
Today, Li Rong wore a white robe, his sideburns were neatly styled, and his black hair was perfectly combed, making his deep-set eyes stand out even more. His beard was also clean-shaven, making him look more refined than he had in the past few days. All traces of his former dejection seemed to have vanished, and he appeared clean and refreshed. Even Jiang Nuanzhi was momentarily stunned by his appearance, forgetting what she was about to say.
"Anuan, don't worry about it, I didn't change your clothes."
Jiang Nuanzhi was taken aback: "Huh?"
Li Rong nodded firmly: "Yes."
Jiang Nuanzhi: "."
"They're worse than animals."
Li Rong's thick, sword-like eyebrows furrowed tightly, his deep eyes filled with confusion: "Hmm?"
Jiang Nuanzhi rolled her eyes at him, put on her coat, and before leaving, stepped on Li Rong's foot.
Then, he snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Li Rong gasped in pain, then looked at Jiang Nuanzhi's retreating figure and asked, "Nuanzhi, Nuanzhi, what's wrong?"
However, the person didn't even glance at him the whole time and went straight downstairs.
Li Rong paused for a moment, then grabbed the clothes lying by the bed and immediately chased after him.
"Anuan, wait for me. What's wrong? Tell me, and I'll change, okay?"
Jiang Nuanzhi in front: "."
Just as he was grinding his teeth, he saw Chi Heng carrying a bag and stopped in his tracks: "Brother Chi, what's this?"
Chi Heng glanced at Li Rong beside her, rolled her eyes, and then bowed to Jiang Nuanzhi: "Sister-in-law, I have already been delayed for several days. Now that the end of the year is over, it is not appropriate for me to stay here any longer. I should return to the capital to report back. I was thinking of waiting until you wake up before I could say goodbye to you."
Jiang Nuanzhi frowned: "So soon? It's only the first day of the new year. Can you wait a couple of days? I'll make you some food to take with you."
Chi Heng quickly shook his head: "Chi Heng thanks you for your hospitality, sister-in-law. I have already troubled you. When you come to the capital in the future, Chi Heng will certainly do his best to be a good host."
Just then, they saw several young soldiers carrying bundles coming from the guest rooms.
What are you doing now?
"Doctor Jiang, the general has sent us back to report to General Wan. We must return to Canglin now."
"Yes, yes, we thank Doctor Jiang for his hospitality. When we return to Canglin, the whole city will probably envy us."
"That's right, that's right."
Jiang Nuanzhi looked at everyone and hurriedly said, "Don't rush off. It won't make a difference if you leave today. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so let's have one more farewell feast. I'll also make some food for you to take on your journey."
Upon hearing this, everyone declined.
Seeing that everyone had made up their minds, Jiang Nuanzhi sighed inwardly: "We won't eat at the banquet, and there's no time to cook food. I'll have time to bring you some food, so let's wait a bit."
As Jiang Nuanzhi spoke, she went to the cellar to retrieve something.
In this freezing weather, it would be best to bring them some instant noodles for the journey, but we don't have many at home, and it's too late to make them ourselves, so we'll just give them whatever we have.
They also brought a lot of extra dumplings and wontons that were made for Chinese New Year. They also brought some noodles, so they wouldn't spoil in the winter.
Give them some of the homemade sauces too; they're the most convenient things to have on a snowy road.
It can be eaten after boiling in water; it's quick, warm, and high in calories.
Li Rong seemed to know she was angry today, and even though he didn't know why, he behaved very well. Jiang Nuanzhi ordered him around quite easily. She had to admit that she herself felt she was being a bit unreasonable, but Li Rong didn't seem impatient at all. On the contrary, whenever she had something in her hand, he would immediately take it from her.
He's just like a nice guy.
Aside from not letting me touch it, everything else is so-so.
Jiang Nuanzhi's pent-up anger dissipated completely.
To be honest, I breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from Li Rong's appearance, he probably had resolved most of his inner turmoil.
"Arong, get some canned goods. Brother Chi likes sweets, give him a few."
Li Rong frowned immediately: "Anuan, there's so much, can he finish it all?"
Jiang Nuanzhi: "And Chen Shu, take some of that too. Give him all three cans of meat. How many jars of Qingxing wine do you have left? Bring them all out."
"Take them all out?" Li Rong's expression remained unchanged, but when Chi Heng happily took the jars, he held on tightly.
She even looked at Jiang Nuanzhi with a somewhat aggrieved expression.
Jiang Nuanzhi was taken aback. What did this mean?
"Let go, you stingy little devil! You won't even give me this little bit of food. Who was it that gave you your pants when you ripped your crotch while practicing martial arts? Let go right now!" Chi Heng muttered as she snatched the food.
When the jar in Li Rong's hand was finally taken away, he glanced at Jiang Nuanzhi, a rare occurrence. Jiang Nuanzhi strangely noticed a hint of resentment in his eyes.
"Father loves that canned peaches and the apricot wine. Mother, Father didn't eat any of them before, but you gave them all to Uncle Chi?" Ping'er whispered in Jiang Nuanzhi's ear at the right moment.
Clearly, Li Rong and Chi Heng on the other side heard this and looked over together.
Chi Heng looked smug, while Li Rong became even more resentful.
Jiang Nuanzhi choked, it was rare to see Li Rong like this.
It seems like Li Rong eats everything, so she really didn't pay attention to what he actually liked.
She then went up to Li Rong and poked his arm: "There are still two jars inside. If you like, I can make some for you later. I also have plum wine, grape wine, and rice wine. How about I get you some of them?"
Li Rong looked down and met Jiang Nuanzhi's smiling eyes. He coughed for a moment and said, "I don't care about such gluttony. Nuanzhi doesn't need to coax me like a child. Since Heng will hardly be able to drink this wine in the future, let him take it all with him."
After saying that, he gave both jars behind him to Chi Heng.
Chi Heng: "."
The next second, he didn't even bother to take the wine jar: "Let's go, let's go now, without stopping!"
He couldn't stand this awful place for even a quarter of an hour.
