Chapter 23 Early Adaptation
Shen Qingqing knew that Lin Fengmian didn't like her, so she didn't plan to go to the Lin family early.
It would be more practical to go back and translate a few pages of the manuscript and earn some more royalties.
"Where are you going?"
Shen Qingqing didn't even turn her head, "Let's go back to the guesthouse."
If it was before, Jiang Zhixun would have no objection.
But Mrs. Wang's words still left a mark in his heart.
I imagined Shen Qingqing staying alone in the room, feeling lonely, and for some reason I felt a little pitiful.
She went through so much hardship before coming to the Northwest.
Since she won't be here for many days anyway, just be nice to her for now.
With his hands in his coat pockets, he said calmly, "Come back to the dormitory with me to get my things."
Shen Qingqing refused, "I can't get into the dormitory, so I might as well wait for you here."
Jiang Zhixun's expression was serious. "Is this your attitude?"
"What's my attitude?"
Shen Qingqing found this person inexplicable.
Since he wanted to draw a line between himself and her, shouldn't he be happy now?
I looked at Jiang Zhixun nervously. Could it be that he took what Sister Wang and the others said seriously?
"When will you submit your application?"
The hands in his pockets curled up.
Jiang Zhixun said: "If you keep doing this, don't blame me for not cooperating with you. After all, you didn't cooperate with me well, causing me to be criticized by my sister-in-law."
Shen Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Mrs. Wang was still standing at the door and watching them leave, she said with a fake smile, "As long as you are happy."
Jiang Zhixun's mouth curled up.
It quickly flattened again.
I always feel that Shen Qingqing is a little different this time when she came to the Northwest.
Thinking that three years had passed and that it was impossible for people to remain unchanged, Jiang Zhixun felt relieved.
With a step of long legs, he walked ahead of Shen Qingqing, "Follow me."
Shen Qingqing waved to Mrs. Wang, signaling her to go home, then turned around and followed Jiang Zhixun.
Just like before, the two of them were walking one after the other.
But people who knew Jiang Zhixun could see that he deliberately slowed down his pace.
Shen Qingqing caused quite a stir on her first day in the compound.
After two days of fermentation, everyone knew that Jiang Zhixun was married and his wife was a great beauty.
While walking on the road, Shen Qingqing found that someone was secretly looking at her.
There were even some female comrades who came in groups of three or four, and hurried over, but did not come forward to talk. Instead, they stood in the distance and looked at her and Jiang Zhixun awkwardly.
Shen Qingqing guessed that it was Jiang Zhixun's admirer.
It is normal that outstanding gay men are always easy to attract the love of lesbians.
The conduct of men and women is strictly controlled. Even though he hasn't been here for three years, Shen Qingqing never doubted whether Jiang Zhixun would do anything out of line.
He just didn't like her and felt that he was being schemed against by her and Grandpa Jiang.
Not the kind of scum who plays multiple games at the same time.
The man in front suddenly stopped, and Shen Qingqing stopped too.
Keep at least three meters between two people.
Jiang Zhixun turned around and looked at her, "You are a tortoise, why are you walking so slowly?"
Shen Qingqing also had a temper, "Why don't you go get it yourself? Why do you have to make me follow you?"
Her eyes and brows were cold and she didn't look like she was deliberately being petty.
More eyes were on them.
Jiang Zhixun pursed his lips and turned back to Shen Qingqing.
Someone hugged her shoulders and Shen Qingqing was confused.
He had held her like this before in the county guesthouse. The circumstances were special at that time, so it was understandable.
But now, why was he suddenly hugging her?
"Don't move."
Shen Qingqing took a deep breath and said, "It's broad daylight, be careful of the impact."
Jiang Zhixun suddenly wanted to tease her.
Is it okay to do it at night?
He changed his words when the words came to his lips, "With so many people watching, don't give others the opportunity to make wild guesses."
Shen Qingqing tilted her head to look at him.
Jiang Zhixun happened to be lowering his head, so one could see his deep and sharp eyes.
He chuckled, "Since when do you care about this?"
Jiang Zhixun said calmly, "Now."
He turned around, took Shen Qingqing's hand, and quickly left with her.
Seeing this scene, someone whispered, "Didn't they say that their relationship is not good? Why is Captain Jiang so proactive? It doesn't look like what the rumors say."
"Comrade Shen is beautiful, and she is Captain Jiang's legitimate wife. There are many ways to coax her. I guess they have reconciled."
"I didn't expect Captain Jiang to be proactive sometimes. He was as cold as an ice cube and wanted to stay away from female comrades. I thought he was stupid and would be single for the rest of his life."
"Now that I have a wife, of course I can't see other lesbians..."
As soon as these words were spoken, someone covered his face and ran away.
They came here just to see what kind of woman could make Jiang Zhixun agree to marry her.
Now I see it.
Shen Qingqing is indeed beautiful. Standing next to Jiang Zhixun, the man is handsome and tall, while the woman is beautiful and slim.
He has a very good temperament and you can tell at first glance that he is cultured and knowledgeable.
How can lesbians like this compete with others?
Besides, they are already married, so there is no room for dispute. You can't lose face and destroy other people's marriages.
That's courting death, and the consequences will be dire.
No one with a clear mind would do such a stupid thing!
Someone shook his head and said, "Captain Jiang is getting married. So many female comrades who like him will probably be sad."
"There are so many outstanding gay men. Jiang Zhixun is married, so he can just find someone else to like. It's no big deal."
"How can love be so simple?"
"What can I do? They are already married, and I can't do anything immoral."
"Unless Captain Jiang and Comrade Shen divorce someday, there will be no chance for other female comrades."
“…”
The man was hot-tempered, and Shen Qingqing's hands also felt hot when Jiang Zhixun held their hands.
It spread all the way and crawled onto the face.
Jiang Zhixun was also feeling a little dizzy; this was the first time he held Shen Qingqing's hand.
Three years ago, when they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the marriage certificate, it was Shen Qingqing who took the initiative to hold his arm.
Compared with the current state, holding hands is obviously more intimate.
I don’t know what she used to wipe her hands, but they were so soft and slippery, as if they had no bones.
Jiang Zhixun pinched it subconsciously. It felt so good that he couldn't help but want to hold it tighter.
As Shen Qingqing's fingertips with thin calluses rubbed the back of her hand, her face suddenly turned red.
In my peripheral vision, Jiang Zhixun still looked cold and absent-minded, and I didn't know what he was thinking.
It was like being splashed with a basin of cold water, and the blush on her face disappeared instantly.
Shen Qingqing woke up and said, "It's gone very far."
As he pulled his hand back, the man suddenly increased his strength, "There are still twenty meters to go. Wait for me downstairs."
Jiang Zhixun turned around and warned seriously, "Don't talk to other male comrades."
Shen Qingqing glared at him and turned her head away unhappily.
No more struggling.
The weather is very cold.
Jiang Zhixun's ears felt hot, and the steaming heat couldn't be suppressed.
He finally told himself.
Shen Qingqing is his wife according to his household registration book, and they are going to have a baby soon.
Start by holding hands and it will take some time to get used to it.
Otherwise, they would both be embarrassed if they did that directly.
Maybe... he is going to escape again.
