After taking several photos of the two of them, the little girl clapped her hands in joy and said, "Haha, can you teach me how to take pictures? I want to take a picture of you and sweet sister."
"Okay, come here, brother will teach you!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile. He also wanted to have a photo with Wen Sitian.
After teaching Funniu, Xu Jianguo hung the camera's leather lanyard around the little girl's neck, then stood up and stood next to Wen Sitian.
There was a distance of nearly twenty centimeters between the two of them. Xu Jianguo was fine, but Wen Sitian became a walking tomato again.
"Haha, sweet sister, please come closer!" Funiu said in a baby voice.
Xu Jianguo turned to look at Wen Sitian beside him, mustered up the courage to take her hand, and said, "Comrade Wen Sitian, this is the first photo we took together. You don't want us to regret it when we see it in the future, do you? Besides, I can't live without you in this life, and I'll stay by your side no matter what! I guess you won't leave me either, so don't be shy. This is a fate destined by God!"
Xu Jianguo spoke in a gentle voice, his tone sincere and firm. Wen Sitian's delicate body trembled when she heard it. She raised her head and looked at the man beside her with red eyes.
The two looked at each other, and time seemed to stand still at this moment. Wen Sitian felt the unwavering love from Xu Jianguo's clear eyes. After a moment, a bright smile appeared on her face.
This smile is exactly the same as the one he had in the cafeteria of the Red Star Machinery Factory. It is still the most beautiful smile Xu Jianguo has ever seen in his two lifetimes.
Xu Jianguo also gave her a gentle smile, and the distance of less than 20 centimeters between the two of them began to narrow unknowingly, and finally they were leaning tightly against each other.
“Crack!”
Funiu pressed the shutter to record the best time of the two.
"Haha, sweet sister, I'm done taking the photo!" Funiu shouted and ran over to take credit.
"Funiu is so great!" Wen Sitian let go of Xu Jianguo's hand, touched her little head, and said with a smile.
"Yes, my sister is the best!" Xu Jianguo also said with a smile.
The little girl was so happy to receive the praise that she walked with a lot more arrogance, which made Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian laugh and cry.
"Jianguo, it's getting late, let's go!"
"Okay!" Xu Jianguo agreed, and the three of them walked out of the yard hand in hand. After locking the door, they walked towards Sandaliang Village.
On the way, Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian talked about Li Dashan also wanting to come home to celebrate the New Year. Wen Sitian did not show any unhappiness after hearing this, but instead agreed with his approach very much.
The three of them walked on the deserted road. Funiu was running in front, jumping and skipping. Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian were walking side by side behind, holding hands. The two of them smiled at each other from time to time.
After walking almost halfway, Xu Jianguo said, "Sitian, shall we take a break?"
"Okay!" Wen Sitian agreed with a smile.
"Funiu, come, let's take a break!" Xu Jianguo shouted to the little girl not far ahead.
"Okay, haha!" Funiu agreed and ran over.
Xu Jianguo, like a blue fat man, took out a military water bottle from his arms, unscrewed the lid and handed it to Fu Niu, but he didn't expect the little girl to not drink it. Instead, she came to Wen Sitian with the water bottle and said with a smile: "Sister Tian, drink some water!"
"Funiu, I'm not thirsty, you drink first!" Wen Sitian said.
"Oh, okay." Funiu held the kettle and drank it in big gulps. After drinking it, she handed the kettle to Wen Sitian.
Wen Sitian took the kettle and took a sip. The warm and slightly sweet honey water made a hint of surprise flash in her eyes. She couldn't help but glance at Xu Jianguo beside her, but didn't say anything.
After drinking the water, Wen Sitian returned the kettle to Xu Jianguo. Xu Jianguo took the kettle, took a big sip, and then screwed the lid on.
Seeing that Xu Jianguo had no disdain for the water bottle she had just drunk from, this time her pretty face only blushed slightly, and her heart felt even sweeter and more determined.
After resting for about twenty minutes, the three set off again. Soon they passed the commune and came to the fork in the road between Sandaliang Village and Shilibao Village.
Just as they were about to head towards Sandaliang Village, five people suddenly jumped out from the woods beside the road. This sudden scene scared Funiu who was running in front.
The little girl stood there in a daze for a few seconds, then turned around and ran towards Xu Jianguo with her short legs, shouting as she ran: "Haha, help!"
Ever since she was abducted by human traffickers last time, the little girl has become much stronger mentally.
The moment the few people appeared, Xu Jianguo opened the Eye of Time and Space and observed them carefully. When he saw the pistol on the waist of the man standing in the middle, his eyes narrowed immediately, and then several Dragon Spirit Needles appeared in his hand. There was no other way, as he had used up all the pebbles he picked up last time.
Xu Jianguo ran towards Funiu and picked her up. Wen Sitian also rushed over and took Funiu in her arms.
"Who are you?" Xu Jianguo looked at the people in front of him and asked with cold eyes.
"Little brother, don't be nervous. It's the New Year now. We brothers are desperate and are planning to borrow some money from you." The leading man said with a smile showing his big yellow teeth, but there was a threat in his tone.
"Oh? How much money do you want to borrow?" Xu Jianguo asked with a smile.
"Hahaha, of course we'll borrow as much money as we have!" The leading man laughed, and the younger brothers around him also laughed.
"You should have told me earlier. Here, I only have one dime on me, and I don't have any more!" Xu Jianguo took out a dime from his pocket and threw it on the ground, then said.
"Damn, little bastard, you are so shameless!" said the leading man.
"There are children around, so I advise you to watch your mouth!"
"Brothers, this kid doesn't want to lend us money. What do you think we should do?" The leading man ignored Xu Jianguo and said to the others around him.
"Fuck, this guy is asking for death, fuck him!"
"Yes, fuck him!"
"Brother, the girl behind him is pretty good. It's Chinese New Year, shouldn't we have some meat?"
"Hahaha……"
The five of them started talking one after another, and finally burst into laughter. They looked at Wen Sitian with lustful eyes, scaring her so much that she hid behind Xu Jianguo.
Xu Jianguo turned to look at Wen Sitian, smiled gently and said, "Don't be afraid, you two. I'm here! Funiu, cover your ears. Let's not listen to their nonsense."
Funiu hugged Wen Sitian and leaned her little head on her shoulder. After listening to Xu Jianguo's words, she covered her ears with her little hands.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind Xu Jianguo, and Wen Sitian's eyes instantly showed a look of fear, and she shouted loudly: "Jianguo, be careful!"
