Knowing that she didn't want to go back home, he asked his leader for leave. He also had selfish motives. She said she wanted to go back to her hometown with him, and he always remembered it.
"Go back home?" Shen Liwu's eyes flickered slightly.
"Okay, I'll take a leave too. It's just in time for me to go back and visit my parents."
She was even looking forward to returning to the countryside.
Chen Liwu was a person of action. She immediately got up, dressed, and called to ask for leave. The dean had seen her efforts during this period, and he readily approved a long vacation for her, allowing her to come to work at any time.
Time was running out, so the two packed up and went to the station early the next morning to buy tickets. They quickly got on the train home.
Not long after they left, Jiang Wei came. She was holding a box of chocolates and stood in front of the door, knocking.
After a while, no one came to open the door. She wanted to knock again, but Zhang Damei's voice came from behind her:
"Comrade Jiang, stop knocking. They've gone back to their hometown."
Zhang Damei frowned when she saw the things in Jiang Wei's hand, "Comrade Jiang, are you here to give Zhou Yanjing something again? He's already married, why are you still thinking about him?" Zhang Damei was standing at the door of her house, holding a basket of vegetables in her hand, her brows slightly frowned, her tone filled with confusion and displeasure.
Jiang Wei's fingers tightly grasped the chocolate box.
"Mrs. Zhang, I just stopped by to take a look." Her voice was a little vague, like smoke blown away by the wind, with a hint of forced calmness.
Zhang Damei sighed, shook her head, and her expression became more serious.
"Comrade Jiang, you are a sensible person. Zhou Yanjing and Shen Liwu are already married. Why do you come here every day? What do people think of you?"
Jiang Wei's face became even uglier, and the chocolate box in his hand was almost deformed.
She pressed her lips into a straight line, and her eyes flashed with resentment and unwillingness. She looked up at Zhang Damei and forced a smile, "Sister Zhang, you misunderstood. I just came to see you. After all, we all knew each other before."
Zhang Damei frowned, with a bit of vigilance in her eyes, "Comrade Jiang, let the past be the past. Zhou Yanjing is living a good life now, and Shen Liwu is also a good girl, so don't get involved anymore."
Jiang Wei lowered his head, his voice so low that it was almost inaudible, "I know, Sister Zhang."
After saying that, she turned around and walked away quickly. Her high heels made a crisp sound as they stepped on the ground, and her back looked a little flustered.
Zhang Damei looked at her from behind, shook her head and sighed, "This girl is so stubborn. She's still trying to get close to him even though he's married. She has no shame."
…
South city.
Chen Liwu and Zhou Yanjing rushed to the town as soon as they got off the train. It was Chen Liwu's first time back to her husband's house so naturally she couldn't go empty-handed, so she bought a lot of things and changed trains twice on the way to the village.
It was already the next morning when they got home. The villagers had already gotten up one after another to do farm work. When they saw Zhou Yanjing and Shen Liwu coming back, they stopped and greeted them.
"Hey, isn't this Yan Jing? I haven't seen you for a long time. Is this your wife? She's so pretty!"
Zhou Yanjing smiled and nodded, took Shen Liwu's hand and introduced her: "This is my wife, Shen Liwu. Everyone, come to my house when you are free."
Shen Liwu had a polite smile on her face, but she was a little nervous. She subconsciously held Zhou Yanjing's hand tightly, feeling the warmth of his palm, and felt a little more at ease.
"Okay, okay, we will definitely go! The young brides in the city are so pretty, with fair and tender skin." The villagers responded enthusiastically, their eyes full of kindness and curiosity.
