Chapter 41



She saw a stall selling all kinds of hair ties and hairpins, and out of curiosity, she opened the car door and walked towards the stall.

"Girl, would you like to buy a hair tie?"

The stall owner was a middle-aged woman in her fifties or sixties, with dark skin and a face that bore the marks of time, looking haggard.

Jiang Yu looked at the colorful hair ties and liked them very much.

She squatted down and began to select carefully.

At this time, a young man in blue clothes came over and his eyes also fell on Jiang Yu.

"This red hair tie suits you very well." The man suddenly said.

Jiang Yu raised his head and glanced at him, somewhat surprised.

The man smiled and continued, "My sister also likes this kind of hair tie. She looks about the same age as you, so I thought you would like it too."

Jiang Yu couldn't help but smile after hearing this: "Really? Then I can pick more."

"Qingsheng, why are you here?" The stall owner next to him spoke to the man.

"Mom, the factory is not busy right now, so I came to see you," the man named Qingsheng said with a smile. He did not forget to take out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the sweat off his mother's forehead.

Jiang Yu looked at the affectionate actions between mother and son and couldn't help but think of his parents in his previous life.

It has been so long that she almost forgot what her parents look like.

Jiang Yu's eyes couldn't help but turn red when he thought of this.

Suddenly, a red rope was handed to her. "The red rope not only matches your skin tone, but also brings you good mood."

Qingsheng looked at Jiang Yu gently and said as he thought about it.

Jiang Yu wiped his eyes in a cowardly manner and took the hair tie. "Thank you!"

Sitting in the passenger seat of the car, watching this scene in the distance, I felt like a needle piercing my eye, which was not only piercing but also painful.

He pushed open the car door and strode towards the stall.

Jiang Yu picked two hair ties and two pairs of strawberries and checked in. "Boss, how much?"

"This is for you," Qingsheng spoke first.

"How can this be? It's not easy for you to do business." Jiang Yu shook his head quickly, unwilling to give the money.

This small business is cheap, she is not willing to be greedy.

Qingsheng smiled gently, "It doesn't matter, these are worthless things. Since we are destined to meet..."

"She has no connection with you"

Suddenly, a magnetic and slightly angry voice sounded from behind Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu looked back and saw the tall and stern-looking Lu Xingzhou standing behind him, his face looking a little gloomy.

Lu Xingzhou looked at Qingsheng, took out a five-yuan note from his pocket and put it on the stall, "This money should be enough to buy what she has in her hand!"

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Qingsheng to say anything, he took Jiang Yu's hand and turned away.

Jiang Yu was in shock the whole time. At this moment, Lu Xingzhou's overbearing behavior seemed to be asserting his sovereignty.

So handsome! So manly! So domineering!

She even became obsessed with him!

Lu Xingzhou pulled Jiang Yu back to the front of the car. He saw that Jiang Yu's cheeks were red and her eyes were full of stars when she looked at him.

His gloomy expression softened instantly.

"What's up?"

Jiang Yu came back to her senses after hearing that and shook her head. She looked down at the two people's hands that were still held together, and couldn't help but twist her fingers and hold the other person's hand in return.

Lu Xingzhou felt the burning heat of his hand, and his eyes, which had been as calm as a clear spring, suddenly became like his head falling into the water, rippling and becoming turbulent.

A blush crept up to the tips of his ears. He looked down stiffly at his clasped hands, his heart beating violently without him noticing.

The two of them stood quietly beside the car, Jiang Yu blushed and looked down at the ground.

Lu Xingzhou looked down at the top of Jiang Yu's head.

Even though both of their hands were sweating, no one took the initiative to pull their hands back.

Time ticked round and round until half an hour later, when Huo Jingqian and Wen Yao returned home carrying large and small bags of food.

"Hey, what are you two doing standing in the car?" Wen Yao asked puzzledly.

When Jiang Yu heard the voice, he looked up and saw Wen Yao and the others coming back. He subconsciously withdrew his hands and put them behind his back.

Lu Xingzhou's hands were empty, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He coughed lightly, trying to cover up his embarrassment, "Um...you guys came back so soon."

"Very soon?" Wen Yao asked with a half-smile.

She and Huo Jingqian looked at each other and smiled.

They had just seen the two people standing in front of the car from a distance, holding hands.

I didn't expect that in just half an hour, the two of them had made such rapid progress!

She and Huo Jingqian deliberately let the two stay to create opportunities for them, and it seems that this decision was quite correct.

The blush on Jiang Yu's face had not yet faded. She opened the car door somewhat awkwardly and got in.

Lu Xingzhou helped take the ingredients from Wen Yao's hand and put them in the back of the car.

Wen Yao quickly took the co-pilot seat.

After Lu Xingzhou put his things away and prepared to get in the car, he found that Wen Yao had already taken the seat before him.

He finally opened the back door and got in.

Lu Xingzhou and Jiang Yu lived under the same roof, and saw each other every day. Logically, they should have been used to it.

At this moment, the two of them seemed as restrained and unnatural as when they first met.

Along the way, Wen Yao and Huo Jingqian were chatting happily in the front row, while the two people sitting in the back row didn't say anything, but the atmosphere was very harmonious.

At this time, the Jiang Yu's heart was in turmoil and could not calm down for a long time.

She found that she didn't mind Lu Xingzhou's touch, but rather enjoyed contact with him.

These two days, Lu Xingzhou brought her breakfast and seemed not as cold to her as before.

After returning home, Lu Xingzhou and Huo Jingqian moved the ingredients into the house together, and then he carried the sewing machine back home.

After saying goodbye to Wen Yao, Jiang Yu skipped back into the house to play with her new baby!

Jiang Yu looked at Lu Xingzhou who was busy at the sewing machine, and couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart.

Maybe, they can try to start over...

Jiang Yu is not a person who is timid, procrastinating, or indecisive. Once she is sure of her true feelings and thoughts, she will choose to face them bravely without hesitation, rather than avoiding problems or delaying.

"Okay, go back and try to see if it works. If you have any problems, tell me," said Lu Xingzhou after he set up the sewing machine.

"Well, thank you," Jiang Yu said.

Wen Yao was busy here. She was measuring the size of various parts of Huo Jingqian's body.

Huo Jingqian was wearing a white shirt and a pair of black casual pants, and his closet was filled with military uniforms.

These simple and plain clothes highlight his military temperament and unique charm.

"Yaoyao, you can do it for yourself. I spend most of my time in the army, so it's okay to wear a military uniform." Huo Jingqian looked at Wen Yao and said softly.

"No! It doesn't make sense for a man to not have a few decent clothes, and you also need some casual clothes. You can't always wear military uniform." Wen Yao said.
