Chapter 176 The Next Sucker
"Why didn't he come back with you?"
The forced smile on Li Meiqian's face froze slightly and almost couldn't be maintained.
"Last time, I heard someone say..." The female neighbor thought seriously while cracking melon seeds.
"Oh, by the way, your sister, didn't she say that the man at your candy factory got promoted to deputy director? Why did you move into this shabby place?"
"Could it be that the candy factory's tall building is uncomfortable to live in?"
The female neighbor became happier and happier as she spoke, with the corners of her mouth almost reaching behind her ears.
"Sister Liu, I have to go out for a while, so I can't accompany you." Li Meiqian's face turned cold.
Li Meiqian's eyes swept over the melon seed shells on the ground, and she felt annoyed again.
"What's up? Are you going to pick up that deputy factory director man of yours?" Mrs. Liu's melon seeds were crackling with a sound.
"I'm going to buy some rice and vegetables." Li Meiqian grabbed the keys on the dining table and walked out.
I completely lost the desire to deal with my female neighbor.
The female neighbor was not angry. She spat out the melon seed shells in her mouth and left.
After watching the female neighbor enter the house next door, Li Meiqian walked in with a broom.
The more I sweep, the angrier I get. The more I sweep, the angrier I get.
Just when Li Meiqian was about to explode, footsteps were heard outside the door.
She subconsciously turned her head to look.
I was caught off guard by a pair of smiling eyes.
"Wen Yu..." After a moment of surprise, Li Meiqian immediately showed a gentle smile on her face.
"Why are you here?" There seemed to be joy in her voice.
"I heard that you and him divorced, so I thought of coming to see you." There was also a hidden joy in He Wenyu's eyes behind the glasses.
He Wenyu, Chen Jianzhou, Li Meiqian, and Jian Zhongliang were all junior high school classmates.
But later He Wenyu was admitted to high school and then went to a normal school.
I have less contact with these junior high school classmates.
Li Meiqian has always been a resourceful person.
When she was in junior high school, several boys were fighting for her.
Chen Jianzhou is the one who fights the best among them.
In addition, Chen Jianzhou's father used to be a small leader of the street, and he looked very impressive.
Li Meiqian thought she had found a thigh, and fell into Chen Jianzhou's arms with a somersault.
In the first few years after she married Chen Jianzhou, they did enjoy a few years of prosperity because of Chen Jianzhou's father's relationship.
But with the death of Chen Jianzhou's father, those glorious days are gone forever.
It is not known whether it was due to genetics or years of alcoholism, but a few years after his father passed away, Chen Jianzhou also fell ill.
"Come in and sit down!" Li Meiqian put down the broom, turned around, picked up the thermos and poured him a glass of water.
He Wenyu placed the canned fruits, cakes, malted milk and a bag of apples in his hands on the low cabinet against the wall.
"We just moved here and haven't had time to buy tea. Just make do with what you have." Li Meiqian smiled and handed the cup of water to He Wenyu.
He Wenyu reached out to take it.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, their fingertips touched each other.
At that moment, it seemed as if an electric current was surging in the air.
For some reason, Li Meiqian's cheeks flushed.
He Wenyu couldn't help but stare in amazement.
He looked like a young boy who was experiencing love for the first time.
"Don't just stand there like an idiot. Sit down!" Li Meiqian blushed and gave him a stern look. That shy look completely captivated He Wenyu.
"Mei Qian..." He Wenyu's ears had turned red without him noticing.
"Let's have lunch here!" Li Meiqian had a smile in her eyes and eyebrows, and her voice was as gentle as water.
"There's not much at home, if you don't mind..." Li Meiqian's voice became smaller and smaller, and she lowered her head.
It seems embarrassing and aggrieved.
He Wenyu took out a small stack of Great Unity from his pocket and stuffed it into Li Meiqian's hand.
"Tell me if you have any difficulties in the future." He Wenyu stared at Li Meiqian's slightly haggard face with burning eyes.
"No, how can I take your money?" Li Meiqian blushed and was about to give it back to him.
"We are classmates, and you are still polite to me." He Wenyu held her hand.
"I really can't have it..." Li Meiqian was still pushing.
He Wenyu directly grabbed her hand that was holding the money.
When big hands hold small hands.
The current in the air is almost as high as high voltage electricity.
"There's no need to be so polite between you and me." He Wenyu clenched the little hand in his palm.
Li Meiqian blushed and lowered her head. She didn't refuse anymore, nor did she pull her hand away.
"Cough cough..." Two light coughs were heard in the yard.
Li Meiqian and He Wenyu quickly withdrew their hands as if they were guilty thieves.
Li Meiqian immediately stuffed the big unity in her hand into her pocket.
Perhaps to avoid suspicion, the two of them each took a step back, creating more distance between them.
"I'll go back first." He Wenyu sounded a little nervous.
"Aren't you going to eat here?" Li Meiqian blushed and looked shy.
"Let's do it another day! I have to report to school later." He Wenyu said gently.
The look in their eyes when they met was almost tearing.
"You've been transferred back?" Li Meiqian's face lit up with obvious joy.
When he was in junior high school, He Wenyu fell in love with Li Meiqian, who was pretty and spoke softly, but his family background was not good.
Li Meiqian didn't like it at all.
When Chen Jianzhou was seriously ill, Li Meiqian also considered him, but he was demoted to a remote mountain area at that time, so the matter came to nothing.
It was really a pleasant surprise that he was transferred back at this time.
"Yeah!" He Wenyu nodded with a smile.
"Then go quickly! Don't delay important matters." Li Meiqian advised softly.
"Then I'll leave." He Wenyu seemed reluctant to leave.
"Go! Be careful on the road." Li Meiqian sent him out.
He Wenyu also looked back every three steps.
The reluctant look on their faces was like that of a newlywed couple.
Only when He Wenyu's figure disappeared around the corner of the slum did Li Meiqian turn around and go back into the house.
Chen Xiaojing also came out of the house at this time.
"Mom, did he give you money?" She took out a box of pastries from her net bag, opened it and started eating.
Li Meiqian nodded, took out the big unity that He Wenyu had stuffed into her pocket and counted them.
two hundred.
"How much?" Chen Xiaojing waited until she finished counting before asking.
"Two hundred." Li Meiqian had a smile on her face and a cheerful voice.
"That's quite generous." Chen Xiaojing took a piece of cake and fed it to Li Meiqian's mouth.
"It's okay! Better than that guy named Zhuo." Li Meiqian lowered her head and took a bite of the pastry.
In Li Meiqian's heart, the best man should be like Lu Yujing.
Compared to what Lu Yujing gave to the dead girl.
The two hundred given by He Wenyu...
It's better than nothing.
"Mom, everything is fine. What are you talking about him doing?" Chen Xiaojing threw the pastry she had just picked up back into the pastry box.
"It really ruins my appetite."
"I just want to remind you not to get too close to him." Li Meiqian put the Great Unity back into her pocket.
"I know!" Chen Xiaojing patted the pastry crumbs on her hands.
