Chapter 21 She Rushed into Huo Jianguo’s Arms

No matter how harshly Li Yuan scolded her, Su Mei no longer wanted to pay attention to him. Anyway, the person had woken up, and she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

She came to Aunt Wang's yard next door.

The fire in the yard was still burning, and Aunt Wang was roasting a piece of bacon over the fire. Seeing Su Mei coming in, Aunt Wang hurriedly greeted her:

"Su Mei, come in and sit down. By the way, I seemed to hear Li Yuan shouting just now. Is he awake? What is he shouting?"

"She was shouting thank you to me. Maybe she was too excited and shouted a little loudly." Su Mei said nonsense seriously.

But Aunt Wang actually believed it:

"I should thank you very much."

"Oh, don't be so polite. It's so late now, Aunt Wang. You can just make some simple meal and stir-fry some vegetables. There's no need to go through so much trouble." As Su Mei spoke, she moved a small stool and sat next to Aunt Wang to warm herself by the fire.

She really didn't want to eat meat, because the 200 kilograms of fat on her body made Su Mei feel sick no matter how she looked at it. She had to give up meat.

Losing weight is nothing more than controlling your diet and moving your legs. Since this body will be used by Su Mei in the future, she still wants to work hard to lose weight as soon as possible.

Aunt Wang put the roasted meat into the basin and said:

"It's not enough to just eat vegetables. Teacher Huo once said that he would give you the money for meals so that you would not have to eat at other people's restaurants. Didn't you complain that you couldn't eat meat every meal with the money he gave you and that you couldn't live without meat?

Although my auntie's conditions don't allow you to eat meat every meal, she can still treat you to a meal, so you don't have to be polite to her."

Su Mei: “….”

Why not bring up the issue? She was not willing to talk about the original owner's dark history of eating for free as a daily routine.

Fortunately, Aunt Wang only said this and didn't say anything else. Instead, she concentrated on washing the meat by the light of the fire.

Su Mei roasted the fire for an hour before Aunt Wang finally finished cooking and called Su Mei into the house to eat.

The rice cooked by Aunt Wang is delicious. The rice is steamed from the stove, and small potatoes are placed at the bottom. It has a fresh potato fragrance when you eat it.

The meat was fried with dried chilies. She fried the oil very dryly, so it tasted fatty but not greasy. After finishing one bowl, Su Mei wanted another.

But in the end, she resisted the urge and put down her bowl and chopsticks. No matter how much Aunt Wang urged her, she didn't eat another bite.

She has always had a strong ability to control herself, and no matter what her desires are, she can easily control them after she feels itchy.

After dinner, Aunt Wang followed Su Mei to her yard and asked Jiang Wei to go and eat.

At the door of Huo Jianguo's room, Su Mei told Aunt Wang:

"You can sleep next to him. You don't have to stay awake all the time. Just touch his head every hour to see if he has a fever. If he does, call me immediately."

"Okay, I've got it. It's already very late, you should go to bed quickly. Thank you so much for today." Aunt Wang kept thanking Su Mei all night.

"It's okay. Good night, Aunt Wang." Su Mei responded softly with a faint smile on her face.

In the room, Li Yuan closed his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep again, but his blinking eyes betrayed him. He was too embarrassed to open his eyes to look at Su Mei. He always felt uncomfortable when he thought of this woman.

Su Mei didn't have time to pay attention to Li Yuan's thoughts. After explaining the precautions, she yawned, rubbed her eyelids which had begun to fight, and returned to her room sleepily.

In the afternoon, Su Mei lit a big fire in the kitchen. She took off the quilt and mattress on the bed, put the sheets and quilt cover on the bed, and covered herself with a thick coat.

When she finished her work and returned to the room, she found that the sheets and quilt covers had been baked dry and had a faint scent of soap.

She made the sheets and quilt covers, then went to the kitchen to light a fire.

This kind of bed - in the north it should be called a kang, with a fire burning underneath for heating, so people sleeping on it will be warm all night long.

After lighting the fire, Su Mei poured out the water from the kettle to wash her face and brush her teeth before going to bed.

The bed is comfortable. Last night, Su Mei sat on a chair and lay on the table to barely make it through the whole night. It was so uncomfortable.

Nestled in the warm quilt, Su Mei was quickly dragged into a dream by the sleepiness that had already swept over her.

In the middle of the night, a rapid knock on the door woke Su Mei up.

Su Mei woke up from her dream, quickly pulled open the switch next to the pillow, put on her shoes and got out of bed with the speed unique to an emergency doctor.

She thought something happened to Li Yuan in the middle of the night, but when she went out she found out that it was two soldiers who brought the drunk Huo Jianguo back.

In order to get Su Mei to rescue people in the afternoon, Huo Jianguo placed Lu Zhenhai under house arrest. He wanted to make amends for Lu Zhenhai, so naturally he had to let Lu Zhenhai drink to his heart's content at the table.

This is a unique way of reconciliation for Chinese men, the so-called forgetting all grudges over a drunken stupor.

It's just that Huo Jianguo is usually a self-disciplined person. Except for a few drinks with some important people during festivals, he hardly drinks at all on other days, so he has no alcohol tolerance.

With his limited alcohol tolerance, he was no match in front of Lu Zhenhai and the old leader. It didn't take long for him to get drunk by these two men.

Looking at the big guy being carried by two warriors and standing in front of her door, Su Mei was a little at a loss.

She doesn't live in the same room with this man. How could she let a man in in the middle of the night?

Just when Su Mei was hesitating about how to settle Huo Jianguo, Aunt Wang came over from the next room and said as she walked:

"Su Mei, please move aside quickly. Master Huo is such a big guy. It must be tiring for the two little soldiers to hold him like this all the time."

After hearing what Aunt Wang said, Su Mei noticed the expressions on the faces of the two little warriors. She subconsciously moved aside and stood behind the door.

Then the two little warriors helped Huo Jianguo onto the bed, and kindly took off his leather shoes and moved him to the inside of the bed.

After settling Huo Jianguo, the two little warriors said hello to Su Mei and walked out.

Outside the house, Aunt Wang saw the two little warriors leave, then she poked her head in, glanced at Su Mei with a smile, and said:

"Su Mei, the night is short, go to bed early."

After saying that, Auntie Wang considerately helped Su Mei close the door.

Su Mei: “….”

She heard the hidden meaning in Aunt Wang's words. As a neighbor, Aunt Wang knew very well that she did not sleep in the same room with Huo Jianguo.

Aunt Wang was deliberately helping Su Mei to create an opportunity to be alone with Huo Jianguo.

Looking at Huo Jianguo who was drunk and unconscious on the bed, Su Mei felt extremely bitter and resentful. She had finally been able to sleep on the bed, but now the bed was occupied by Huo Jianguo again.

Looking at how she had been sitting on the bench all night last night, Su Mei almost bit her teeth to pieces.

As the saying goes, from extravagance comes difficulty. Last night, Su Mei was sleeping soundly on the table, but tonight, after she lay on the cold table again, she tossed and turned, and her arms were numb but she couldn't fall asleep at all.

She sat up and glanced at Huo Jianguo, and found that he had maintained the same sleeping position.

.......Seeing this, Su Mei immediately thought that she could sleep just as well. The kang was so wide, why couldn't she climb up and sleep half of it?

Although she was from the south, Su Mei remembered that in her previous life she had seen the kang in the north on the Internet, which could accommodate several people.

Therefore, if she is honest and just sleeps alone with Huo Jianguo, it shouldn't be too much!

It is better to act than to think. Su Mei immediately stood up, walked to the kang in a few steps, and lay down on it quietly.

"Wow, it's so nice to have a bed to sleep on!"

Su Mei was already sleepy and fell asleep almost as soon as she hit the bed.

But she overlooked one thing, that is, the so-called quiet sleep was the body she used before.

But the body she is using now is fat and plump, and it is not comfortable to sleep in the same position.

So Su Mei changed her sleeping position not long after she fell asleep.

She lay sideways...

She lay upright...

She lay sideways...

She rubbed it back and forth...

She slipped into Huo Jianguo's arms...
