Chapter 32
Lu Xun's arrival was unexpected, but unexpectedly welcomed.
Jiang Qiao thought that it was because of his good looks that the others stopped playing and gathered around him to gossip about his relationship with Jiang Qiao.
"Oh my god, you're only eighteen?" Yuan Yi asked in surprise, obviously not believing it: "I thought you were about the same age as us..."
After Yuan Yi finished speaking, he realized that what he said was misleading, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't say you look old, it's just that, you look quite mature."
Lu Xun: “……………………”
Yuan Yi gave up explaining: "It's not about the mature look... Can you understand?"
Lu Xun smiled politely.
Yuan Yi became autistic and stopped talking.
Jiang Qiao held back his laughter.
She could understand Yuan Yi's feelings, just like when she first met Lu Xun, she also felt that he was different from the other high school students around him.
It's not that he looks outstanding, but Lu Xun always gives people a calm, composed and calm temperament.
The complex and poor environment in which he grew up made him mature prematurely. Before he had the chance to enjoy the wild and passionate youth, he was forced to grow up in a bumpy way by the ever-changing life.
There were no extra rooms in the B&B, so the two male college students took the initiative to invite Lu Xun to stay with them for a night. Jiang Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, almost imperceptibly.
She had to admit that compared to her previous ease in completing tasks, now that 166 allowed her to play freely, she was a little unsure of how to deal with Lu Xun.
[Can you still do it? Have you found a solution?] She couldn't help but ask 166,
Just now, 166 said that he was going to inquire about other systems, and disappeared for more than two hours. Now he just came back, and heard Jiang Qiao's angry question, he felt inexplicably guilty: [No, I didn't find it.]
Jiang Qiao: [……………………]
166 is a small system with a strong sense of self-esteem. It quickly explained that it was not useless, but that other systems had never encountered such a problem.
Jiang Qiao sneered: [So, you blame me?]
It's all because of her great charisma.
166: [I didn’t say that.]
It made up its mind: [How about you just go along with him first, and then find a random reason to make him leave on his own initiative. Anyway, as long as you guarantee that you will be separated from the male protagonist for six years, it will be fine.]
Six years later, at the wedding of the hero and heroine, Jiang Qiao ran over again and jumped into the sea, and the main storyline was successfully completed.
Jiang Qiao frowned after hearing this: [Is this possible?]
[Okay!] What else can 166 do? It said through gritted teeth.
The next morning, Lu Xun silently helped her pack her things. Jiang Qiao followed Lu Xun closely, like a child who had done something wrong.
Lu Xun reluctantly asked her to sit aside and wait.
After saying goodbye to the others, Jiang Qiao followed Lu Xun and got on the car back home.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the bus service stopped. Fortunately, there were still some taxi drivers who came out to make a living. It cost more than 200 yuan to take the taxi from the B&B to the old alley.
Jiang Qiao's eyelashes drooped as he watched Lu Xun scan the code to pay.
Thinking about it carefully, even when she was still the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, Lu Xun never asked her to pay anything.
Those expensive gifts were returned intact.
Jiang Qiao immediately regretted his decision. Damn it. If he had known earlier, he would have forced Lu Xun to accept it. Who knows, maybe he could have exchanged it for some money now!
Lu Xun didn't know what she was thinking. Seeing her standing at the door with a frown on her face, he thought she didn't want to come in.
“… Jiang Qiao, please bear with it a little longer,” he suddenly said.
He won't always be this poor.
The young man looked serious. Jiang Qiao reacted and sighed.
She didn't dislike Lu Xun's poverty at all. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lu Xun had a bright future.
But she still had to act like a spoiled child: "Your bed is so small, and the bed board is so hard..."
Lu Xun touched the bed and didn't feel it was hard. He looked at Jiang Qiao's tender, fair, and slightly chubby face and felt that Jiang Qiao looked too much like a child.
If you want something, you must get it. If you encounter difficulties, you will just hide.
Time has not had any effect on her. She has not grown up. She is still very spoiled and complains. She cannot bear even the slightest hardship.
Lu Xun silently took out a thick quilt from the closet and put it underneath.
The bed was so soft and comfortable that Jiang Qiao finally stopped complaining. She sat on it and bounced up and down a few times. She raised her face and smiled with her eyebrows curved: "It's really soft."
Like a child.
Jiang Qiao moved into Lu Xun's small house and openly "occupied" Lu Xun's bed, while the owner of the house slept on the sofa in the living room.
Lu Xun was tall and was sleeping on the sofa, with his two long legs awkwardly propped up on the ground.
One night, Jiang Qiao was thirsty and got up to drink water, and saw this scene.
Jiang Qiao stood there and watched for a long time, until the water in the cup became cold, then she went back to the house.
Lu Xun still went to work part-time as usual, but because he had to support a picky young lady like Jiang Qiao, he returned to the Hong Kong Coliseum again.
I prepare meals in the morning and go to the coffee shop. I come back at noon to bring lunch to Jiang Qiao. I go to the Hong Kong Coliseum in the afternoon. I go home in the evening to cook and tutor Jiang Qiao.
Jiang Qiao was shameless, but she knew how much trouble she had caused others. She began to take the initiative to do housework such as cooking and sweeping the floor.
At the beginning, 166 scolded her for ruining her character. Jiang Qiao is a rich lady who has never been involved in women's daily life. How could she do such a thing?
Jiang Qiao criticized it indifferently. The plot has become so distorted, and he still has the time to care about the characters?
If she doesn't help share the burden, Lu Xun might die of exhaustion in six years.
166 was speechless after being criticized, and was so frustrated that he kept sending garbled messages.
When Lu Xun returned home that day, he saw the steaming food on the table and thought he had come to the wrong place. He went out and confirmed that this was his home before walking back in.
"Is there any takeout nearby?" he asked.
Jiang Qiao's eyes widened with anger: "I did this!"
A simple dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried vegetables, and rice porridge does not really look like takeout.
Lu Xun ate a bite of the greens under the girl's expectant gaze. As soon as he put it in his mouth, Jiang Qiao asked anxiously, "How is it? How is it?"
There was not enough salt and oil, so it tasted more like vegetables boiled in water. However, facing Jiang Qiao's bright peach blossom eyes, he nodded slowly and said politely, "It's delicious."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiao quickly took a bite herself, her face immediately turned bitter, and she accused Lu Xun of lying.
Lu Xun said he thought it was really delicious.
Jiang Qiao then said that there was something wrong with his taste buds.
Lu Xun's cold brows softened a little and he said nothing more.
His parents died too early, and he grew up eating at many different houses. At that time, he was only concerned with filling his stomach, and he couldn't tell whether the food tasted good or bad.
Later, when he grew up and was able to earn his own money, the food he ate most was steamed buns and fast food.
For many years to come, his definition of home cooking was light stir-fried vegetables and scrambled eggs with tomatoes and plenty of soy sauce.
