Upon hearing Jiang Xue say that Zhao Lanxi was shameless, Pei Hengzhi's expression instantly turned cold.
"Jiang Xue, watch your words."
"You want me to watch my words? Fine, then give the car back to my sister right now, and I won't say anything more."
Jiang Xue looked arrogantly at Pei Hengzhi. His older brother and sister were both there, so he wasn't afraid of Pei Hengzhi at all. Besides, there was Lu Jingnian, who was even better at fighting than his older brother.
"But Jiang Yue has already given this motorcycle to Hengzhi."
Zhao Lanxi seemed no longer afraid. She got off the motorcycle, stood next to Pei Hengzhi, and frowned as she looked at Jiang Yue.
"Jiang Yue, this is really pointless of you. You give things away and then take them back. Do you think that will make Hengzhi like you?"
I'm telling you, you're wrong.
No matter what you do, Hengzhi will never like you; doing this will only make him dislike you more.
Jiang Yue's hand was suddenly gripped tightly by the man beside her. Lu Jingnian looked down at her intently, his expression showing a hint of nervousness and worry, as if he was afraid that Jiang Yue would listen to Zhao Lanxi.
Jiang Yue didn't know if he was really drunk or pretending.
Jiang Yue patted Lu Jingnian's hand reassuringly and smiled at Zhao Lanxi, "Zhao Lanxi, you're talking about the Jiang Yue who used to chase after Pei Hengzhi every day, not the Jiang Yue who's married now."
I no longer like Pei Hengzhi; his dislike or affection is completely irrelevant to me.
Zhao Lanxi was stunned by Jiang Yue's answer. What did Jiang Yue say?
Does she no longer like Pei Hengzhi?
How could that be? Jiang Yue was willing to die for Pei Hengzhi before, how could she suddenly stop liking him? Zhao Lanxi didn't believe it.
This was the second time Pei Hengzhi had heard Jiang Yue say so frankly that she didn't like him anymore. He couldn't quite describe how he felt. He should have felt happy and relieved to have finally gotten rid of a burden who was always bothering him.
However, when Pei Hengzhi looked at Jiang Yue and Lu Jingnian's hands clasped together, he felt a bit uncomfortable and did not feel as relaxed and happy as he had imagined.
"Jiang Yue, I hope what you're saying is true."
Pei Hengzhi said coldly.
“I believe in Yueyue.” Lu Jingnian suddenly spoke, startling everyone present.
No one expected that Lu Jingnian would actually protect Jiang Yue. Everyone knew how much Jiang Yue used to cling to Pei Hengzhi; everyone knew that Jiang Yue was almost obsessed with Pei Hengzhi.
Jiang Zheng, standing next to him, looked at Lu Jingnian as if he were a ghost. He couldn't believe it. This iceberg had changed after getting married. He even knew how to protect Yueyue. Not bad!
Jiang Xue looked at Lu Jingnian with disdain and muttered under his breath, "I didn't realize that the living devil could flatter my sister. No wonder my sister likes him so much now."
However, this is much better than Pei Hengzhi, who always complains about his sister.
Fine, considering that Lu Jingnian still knows how to please his sister, he'll hold off on letting her divorce him for now and observe for a while longer.
Zhao Lanxi's words did not make Jiang Yue leave in a way that made her feel uncomfortable. She took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Jiang Yue, if you really can't dislike Hengzhi, that would be a really good thing."
"But it wouldn't be good to take back something that's already been given away, and Hengzhi and I have urgent business to attend to; we urgently need this motorcycle."
Zhao Lanxi practically berated Jiang Yue, accusing her of being shameless for taking back what she had given away and delaying the person's urgent business.
If someone is easily embarrassed, they might actually leave.
But Jiang Yue is not.
Jiang Yue was not affected by Zhao Lanxi's words at all. She nodded frankly, "You're right, I really am shameless."
It was all my fault for shamelessly giving Pei Hengzhi so many things before.
"I was immature before, so I won't mention the things I gave you. But this motorcycle was bought with my dowry and betrothal money. I made things clear with Hengzhi beforehand, and he promised to return it to me. If he hadn't promised to return it, I wouldn't have come to see Hengzhi today."
Isn't it just about being disgusting? Jiang Yue is really good at it.
“I was worried that Brother Hengzhi wouldn’t have time, so I specially asked my older brother to help me ride back. What do you mean by this, Brother Hengzhi?”
Are you trying to back out and not give it back to me?
"This is my dowry and bride price money."
Five thousand yuan in the 1980s was a huge sum of money.
In fact, Jiang Yue felt that if Pei Hengzhi really disliked her, he should have clearly rejected her instead of accepting whatever she gave him and giving her many unrealistic fantasies.
Pei Hengzhi finally got off the motorcycle, but was stopped by Zhao Lanxi just as he was about to speak.
Seeing that Jiang Yue couldn't understand, Zhao Lanxi asked Jiang Zheng in frustration.
"Brother Jiang Zheng, aren't you going to do anything about Jiang Yue? Why are you letting her act so irresponsibly?"
She still needs the motorcycle, and she has already made arrangements with her younger brother Zhao Di to pick her up on the motorcycle every day once she starts night school.
If Jiang Yue really takes the motorcycle back, how will she get home at night after starting night school?
It was so late, and the road was so dark. What if something happened to her?
Zhao Lanxi looked at Jiang Zheng, eagerly awaiting his reply. In the past, when she was bullied by Jiang Yue, Jiang Zheng would always stand by her side and teach Jiang Yue a lesson.
Zhao Lanxi thought this time would be no exception.
But then Jiang Zheng said, "Didn't you just hear that? My sister herself admitted that she was indeed ignorant. Moreover, this motorcycle was bought with her dowry and betrothal money. It's worth more than five thousand yuan. It's so valuable that even if it's a gift from relatives or friends, let alone someone who is not related to her, most people wouldn't dare to accept it."
Pei Hengzhi, my sister is immature, but you won't be immature like her, right?
Five thousand yuan in the 1980s was a huge sum of money.
As the male lead, Pei Hengzhi pays great attention to his appearance and reputation. Jiang Zheng has already said so much, if he still doesn't give Jiang Yue the motorcycle, it would be considered that he is being unreasonable and refusing to give it to her.
How could Pei Hengzhi act like an unreasonable rogue? He immediately wanted to return the motorcycle to Jiang Yue.
"I promised Jiang Yue, you can take the motorcycle back."
"But we have an urgent matter to attend to and need to go out, so we have to use a motorcycle."
Zhao Lanxi said anxiously.
She really had an urgent matter to attend to today.
It's too late to ride a bicycle or take the bus now.
Pei Hengzhi was immediately at a loss. He looked at Jiang Zheng and Jiang Yue, "Can..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Zheng said directly, "Jing Nian drove a military vehicle back today. If you have any urgent business, drive there."
Once you're done with your work, just drive back to the military base and return the car.
Now Zhao Lanxi had no more excuses to prevent Pei Hengzhi from returning the car.
Once a military vehicle is lent out, it generally cannot be lent to others. However, since Pei Hengzhi is in the same unit as them, it's fine to lend it to him.
Pei Hengzhi took Zhao Lanxi to the Jiang family and drove away.
Before he left, Jiang Zheng reminded him, "Be careful when you drive, don't damage the car, otherwise Jing Nian and I won't be able to explain it to our superiors."
