Chapter 38: Tryst

"Okay, I'll figure out a way to deal with this myself. It's getting dark, and if a girl like you doesn't go home after dark, people will gossip about you. Go back." After saying that, Lu Yunchen left.

The last time Lu Yunchen went to look for Huang Xinran, he was blocked by Jiang Yurou. He deliberately let Huang Xinran see him and sow discord between the two. Unexpectedly, he failed in the end and was punished by lightning.

That day, she was unwilling to give up and followed Lu Yunchen, only to find out that Lu Yunchen was determined to find a job for his comrade-in-arms and was asking people for help.

She immediately saw the opportunity, and then found Uncle Wang and got the accurate information.

She just didn't believe that Lu Yunchen could reject her this time?

Lu Yunchen did not reject her, but he did not agree to her either.

The comrade had to be discharged from the army because of an arm injury during a mission. Although he looked fine, he could not do heavy work. He lived a tight life these years and was starving to the point of being skin and bones.

When he saw him, he wanted to help him find a job to make ends meet.

As for the tea plantation that Jiang Yurou mentioned, he also knew about it, but he had not heard that they needed people, and he did not know what the situation was.

Lu Yunchen's steps as he left became slower and slower.

Although he had 40 days of vacation this time, the round trip by train took five days, so he only had one month to visit his family. He had to help his comrades find a job to make a living before returning to the army.

The work in the tea plantation was not easy, he would have to look around to see if he could find a better one.

Seeing Lu Yunchen leave without looking back, Jiang Yurou stomped her feet in anger.

I had no choice but to look for Huang Xinran again. I happened to see Huang Xinran pouring out the bath water after helping Yaya take a bath. When he saw her, he was very surprised: "Why haven't you left yet?"

Jiang Yurou: “…”

Does this sound like something Huang Xinran would say?

They are a couple, so annoying!

"Of course, I have something to tell you."

Jiang Yurou hurriedly approached her and lowered her voice: "Have you forgotten what I told you last time?"

"What's that?"

"Are you pretending to be stupid?"

"I really don't know. If you have something to say, just tell me quickly. I still have to give Maomao a bath!" Didn't you see that Maomao was staring at me with his eyes wide open?

Jiang Yurou was so angry that she wanted to turn around and leave. But thinking of her purpose, she still forced herself to hold back her anger: "It's Xiao Huayu. He asked me to bring you a letter, saying that he will wait for you at the old place tonight, and we will meet there or not. Remember it!"

Xiao Huayu?

Huang Xinran slapped her forehead. If she hadn't mentioned it, she would have forgotten about this man.

When she eloped with Xiao Huayu, she bumped into Lu Yunchen at the station. Afterwards, she was caught by Lu Yunchen and even her luggage was left with Xiao Huayu.

Not to mention the clothes and other things, her luggage also contained the money she had saved by living frugally, and the two hundred yuan that she had "borrowed" from her parents after being deceived by the other party.

Let alone the fact that she had forgotten about it before, now that the other party had come to her door, she naturally had to find a chance to get the money back!

Xiao Huayu took the initiative to find her, it was like a perfect match for a sleepy person.

"Okay, I understand."

Huang Xinran agreed readily, took Maomao with him and went back into the house.

The door closed, Jiang Yurou opened her mouth, but didn't say anything more. She had already agreed, so she wasn't afraid of the other party playing tricks. She could either not go or go. After this trip, she would have plenty of ways to deal with her.

Thinking that she would soon be able to live together with Lu Yunchen, Jiang Yurou smiled happily.

Even the steps when leaving were a little lighter.

Huang Xinran poured water, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to give Maomao a bath.

But Maomao had a frown on his face, his hands clenched into fists, and he looked like he had something to say.

"What's wrong? Didn't you just say you wanted to take a shower? Hurry up, so we can go eat after you take a shower."

If it weren't for the sticky feeling on her body, she would choose to take a shower after dinner.

Maomao lowered his head and did not move for a long time.

"Hurry up, do you want to wash or not?" Huang Xinran was almost losing her patience. This kid was so nosy.

“Hey!~!”

Just as she turned around, Maomao spoke. Huang Xinran turned around and saw Maomao questioning her seriously, "Are you going to fool around with that wild man again? Your dad is back, why are you still going?!"

"Who taught you that?"

Huang Xinran was angry, raised her hand and flicked his earlobe: "You are a child, don't ask about these things. Take off your clothes quickly, take a shower and then we will go to eat."

"I don't……"

He held her collar to prevent her from taking it off, stubbornly waiting for an answer: "You haven't told me yet, are you going to meet that wild man?"

"Is it okay if I don't go?"

A little kid with a smart mind.

Huang Xinran pulled him over helplessly, forcibly took off his clothes, and pushed him into the bathtub to give him a bath.

Maomao seemed relieved and let her do what she wanted.

When she finished bathing Maomao, the family had already called for dinner. Huang Xinran hurriedly poured the bath water and then hurried to eat. When she finished washing her own and the child's clothes, the moon was already high above the willow trees.

She felt sleepy and fell asleep immediately.

I felt as if I had forgotten something, but I couldn't remember what it was. But I still couldn't sleep well and couldn't help but tossing over.

Maomao was waiting anxiously, fearing that Huang Xinran would go out.

It was not until Lu Yunchen came back from outside that he lifted the quilt and pushed Yaya and Maomao inside. Then he took a stool and placed it next to the bed, lay down on the edge of the bed, and soon fell asleep.

Maomao put his worries aside and soon fell asleep.

In the darkness, Huang Xinran opened his eyes.

She just couldn't remember what she had forgotten. But she counted the money in her dream, but it didn't make sense. She always felt that a large sum of money was missing. Then she remembered the luggage she had left at Xiao Huayu's place.

I woke up all of a sudden from my doze.

She got up quietly, carefully stepped over the child, and slipped down from Lu Yunchen's side. She didn't even dare to put on her shoes, and walked out of the house barefoot. She waited until the door was closed before she dared to breathe a sigh of relief.

What she didn't know was that the man on the edge of the bed opened his eyes the moment she tiptoed away.

Hua Huang happily went straight to Hetao.

In fact, after so many years, she even forgot where the "old place" was.

After much thought, I finally found a place in my memory and hurried over.

As expected, Xiao Huayu had been waiting here for a long time.

In fact, according to Xiao Huayu, he didn't want to see Huang Xinran at all, after all, he had almost spent the money in Huang Xinran's luggage. But Jiang Yurou had the leverage over him, so he had to come here secretly under the threat of the tigress at home.

But he waited and waited until he was tired of waiting. Just as he was cursing angrily, he suddenly heard movement in the distance, and he couldn't help but feel happy.

When the figure came closer, he found that it was indeed Huang Xinran, and he immediately went to greet him.

"Of course, you are here at last..."
