Chapter 83 White Rabbit Milk Candy
Ye Rou was in a daze throughout the afternoon, and her concentration was always distracted when her master was talking to her. Her master told her to go home and rest for three days to adjust her mood.
She sat there from dawn to dusk, with the tragic and bloody scene in the courtyard in her mind and Wang Cuiwei's singing lingering in her ears.
Jiang Chen pushed the door open and strode in, his expression cold: "What's wrong with you?"
Seeing Jiang Chen, her restless heart finally found a haven. She stretched out her arms and said softly, "Jiang Chen, I want a hug."
Jiang Chen immediately opened his arms and hugged her tightly.
Ye Rou sat in his arms, her chin resting on his shoulder, and she recounted everything she had seen today in a calm tone.
Jiang Chen stroked her long hair and listened to her talk about Wang Cuiwei chopping off Liu Jiankang's head and Qian Guimei's arm, without any emotion.
If it were him, he would not poison the two people first and then chop them up. He would let them be conscious and see the coming of death clearly and painfully.
But the little monster was different from him, she must have been frightened by the scene.
He asked, "Are you scared?"
Ye Rou shook her head and nodded, as if she didn't understand either.
She only heard her tone confused, as if asking herself, "Why did she want to die with them?"
Jiang Chen played with Ye Rou's hair and said nonchalantly, "She doesn't want to live anymore."
Ye Rou froze when she heard this answer: "Is she doing this out of hatred?"
Jiang Chen didn't notice her stiffness and replied casually, "Hatred is ingrained in our bones. There's no getting rid of it. Perhaps only death can make us forget it."
The tears that had been rolling in Ye Rou's eyes for a long time finally fell.
She finally knew why she was sad.
When she saw Wang Cuiwei, she seemed to see Jiang Chen who had taken revenge in the book.
At the most glorious moment of his life, he shot himself. It seemed that apart from hatred, there was nothing in this world worth his attachment and stay. Everything was so boring.
Wang Cuiwei is the same as Jiang Chen, and Jiang Chen's hatred is even deeper and darker than hers.
Just like Jiang Chen said, hatred is something that will never fade once it is ingrained.
His expression was calm beside her at the moment, but his heart was trapped in a storm of hatred without stopping for a moment.
Ye Rou hugged Jiang Chen tightly, crying inconsolably.
She was wrong.
She was born in a peaceful era, her parents were loving, and her life was smooth. She was born because of love and grew up in love. She knew what love was and how to love someone.
Jiang Chen is the opposite of her. He has a rough and turbulent life and has experienced tragic things. He does not know how to love and has never been loved by anyone.
She didn't understand how deep Jiang Chen's hatred was, and Jiang Chen naturally didn't understand what kind of love she wanted.
Jiang Chen lifted her face up and saw that she was crying miserably and looked pitiful. He thought she was scared because of Wang Cuiwei's matter and said helplessly, "You are not a little monster, you are a coward."
He spoke with disgust and wiped away Ye Rou's tears gently.
Ye Rou let him do what he wanted. The calluses on his fingertips stung her cheeks slightly. She suddenly said, "Jiang Chen, let's make peace."
He couldn't let go of his hatred, and she couldn't let go of her love for him.
Instead of worrying about it, it is better to let go and love. Even if the final result is not good, at least the process is beautiful.
Jiang Chen lifted his eyelids to look at the little monster. Her eyes were filled with tears, like crystal dewdrops on flower petals in the early morning, which would roll down with the slightest touch.
But she was smiling, and the smile was very complicated, seeming happy and sad at the same time. Jiang Chen couldn't understand it, but when he saw Ye Rou's smile and heard her say that they had reconciled, he was not happy. Something heavier and more profound enveloped his little demon.
He took something out of his pocket and threw it to her.
Ye Rou picked it up in confusion, and it turned out to be White Rabbit Milk Candy.
"This is?"
Jiang Chen said uncomfortably, "Don't you girls all like sweet things?"
He specifically asked his younger brother, and Zhou Liang and Fang Tian, who both have younger sisters, said that girls like to eat candy.
Ye Rou clutched the candy and asked uncertainly, "Are you trying to coax me?"
"Stop talking nonsense and eat quickly." He threw away his discomfort and spoke in a domineering tone.
Ye Rou ate a piece of candy.
Jiang Chen stared at her intently and asked, "Is it sweet?"
Ye Rou smiled, and this smile was the same as her usual one, gentle and bright.
She leaned over and placed a kiss on his lips, which was full of milky scent.
"Is it sweet?" She slowly stepped back after the kiss and answered him with the same question.
Jiang Chen carried her back: "It was too fast, I couldn't taste it."
As soon as the words were spoken, the two of them touched lips and teeth.
——
The next day, the courtyard in the town was very quiet.
Meng Guan was sitting at the table doing the accounting. Although he had only been with Jiang Chen for a short time, he had successfully taken over the job of doing the accounting and counting the money because of his clever brain and superb calculation ability (better than Zhou Liang and Fang Tian).
Zhou Liang sat opposite him, his dark circles under his eyes looking like they were caused by beatings. He hadn't slept for two days in order to find Wang Meng.
Fang Tian sat dejectedly on the side. Wang Meng lost because of his poor supervision, and he hasn't been in high spirits these days.
Zhou Liang complained, "If this continues, even the strongest man can't handle it."
Meng Guan wrote a string of numbers and replied casually: "Let's wait for Brother Jiang and sister-in-law to reconcile."
Zhou Liang didn't believe it at all: "Brother Jiang and sister-in-law are arguing? How is that possible?"
Meng Guan nodded affirmatively: "They definitely had a fight."
Zhou Liang was so confident in what he said, and thought about how Brother Jiang had been looking for people these past two days, with a cold face and no popularity, which was indeed a bit like before.
His tone was uncertain again: "Why are you arguing?"
Meng Guan thought of the night when Brother Jiang was thrown out along with the quilt, and added: "To be more precise, my sister-in-law was angry with Brother Jiang."
Zhou Liang understood: "Brother Jiang must have bullied his sister-in-law!"
Brother Jiang bullies Ye Rou?
Fang Tian shuddered. She could crush Jiang Yu's leg bones with one foot. Who could bully her?
Zhou Liang couldn't sit still anymore. He was worried about Brother Jiang.
My sister-in-law is such a good woman. If she were anywhere else, she would be a hot commodity that everyone would fight over. She is beautiful, has good medical skills, is considerate, and speaks gently. His brother is so confused!
"No, we can't just stand by and watch. We have to make Brother Jiang and Sister-in-law reconcile!"
Zhou Liang spoke passionately, but the other two did not agree.
Fang Tian was hoping that Brother Jiang and Ye Rou would quarrel, so he naturally wouldn't try to stop them and make them reconcile.
Meng Guan said, "This is Brother Jiang's family affair. It's not right for us to interfere."
Zhou Liang slammed the table, pointed at the dark circles under his eyes, and said angrily, "I haven't slept for two days. As long as Brother Jiang doesn't reconcile with my sister-in-law, he will continue to be crazy. Either find Wang Meng or let my sister-in-law stop him. It's your choice."
They searched the town for two days but couldn't find anyone. They guessed that Wang Meng had already run out of town, so where could they find him?
What Zhou Liang said makes sense. We can’t let Brother Jiang go crazy. Brother Jiang is always hungry. He can still survive by commuting between the town and the village every day, but people like them can’t.
Meng Guan was the first to respond: "You're right, we must calm Brother Jiang down!"
Only Fang Tian has not expressed his opinion yet.
Zhou Liang glared at Fang Tian and warned him, "Stop those irrelevant little thoughts of yours."
Fang Tian then responded reluctantly.
Zhou Liang nodded: "Very good, from today on, our cooperative to help Brother Jiang find a wife is officially established!"
"What cooperative?" The door was pushed open with a creak, and his brother Jiang's low voice suddenly sounded.
At this moment, it is no less than a call from the underworld.
The three of them shuddered at the same time.
