This sarcastic tone... As a temperamental mammal, would Fan Xiaofan just let others make veiled insults like this?
She suddenly slammed the hard-boiled egg she was holding onto the table, making a crisp cracking sound, her voice carrying the unique crispness of a young girl: "Isn't that right? It's quite a coincidence, I have the same problem. Why is it that when I'm traveling, I never run into kind people who can understand the hardships of other travelers? We could learn from them!"
The girl's mother, who was pushing her daughter, froze for a moment.
Liu Fang couldn't help but burst out laughing, echoing, "Just eat yours, when you're out in the world, give others some face..."
Fan Xiaofan blinked innocently: "I'll eat, I'll eat. Is it that boiled eggs aren't tasty, or am I not sleepy?"
She took a few bites of the boiled egg, then obediently lay down on the bed and yawned.
Liu Fang glanced at Gu Wenyan, who nodded. They would take turns resting. Liu Fang then went to the shop across the street, lay down, and looked at Fan Xiaofan's coquettish yawning across the street. She couldn't help but smile a little.
She closed her eyes, ready to rest. A faint smell of disinfectant lingered in the air, indicating that someone in the family worked at the hospital. It must have been the middle-aged couple. She noticed their hands; the man was probably a doctor, and the woman was likely a nurse.
The family's financial situation is quite good, and the girl seems to be a spoiled child, so there's nothing wrong with that.
As for the rest of the family, when they arrived next door, the elderly couple looked honest and simple, while the two boys looked refined and gentle.
Gu Wenyan sat in the aisle, keeping watch. The girl's mother's eyes flickered, and she called her daughter over in a low voice. After saying a few words, the girl's eyes widened, and she glanced at Gu Wenyan before blushing instantly.
Then he nodded, awkwardly took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket, and sat down next to Gu Wenyan, just a small table away.
"They're all resting, why aren't you resting?"
Gu Wenyan glanced at her indifferently, showing no interest in chatting.
"My name is Wu An'an, I'm seventeen years old and still in school. I came to Qingcheng to visit relatives. Are you also from Qingcheng?"
Wu An'an was a little annoyed. She had said so much, but the man hadn't said a word. If it weren't for his good looks and decent clothes, she wouldn't have sat here and started talking to him.
She's now of marriageable age, but her reputation in their small town has been ruined by her bad temper. Although her parents have good jobs, it's hard for her to find a good husband. She came to Qingcheng this time specifically to ask her uncle's family to help her find a husband.
My aunt said that life in Qingcheng is so good now. The grain supply has been almost perfect, and the textile factory is doing well. Qingcheng is benefiting from this too. If she could marry into a well-off family here, she wouldn't have to worry about going hungry. She would be living in a paradise.
Gu Wenyan frowned: "You talk too much."
Wu An'an was so angry that she stood up and stomped her foot: "You're so annoying..."
Gu Wenyan felt no joy at the prospect of finding love; instead, he was somewhat speechless. "Girl, don't let this interfere with your business."
Gu Wenyan's reaction to the thought of a girl being so delicate and weak was to shiver.
Wu An'an climbed onto the bed, sobbing. She felt incredibly embarrassed. It was the first time she had ever spoken to a man so proactively, and this was the result. Why was she so unlucky?
Stinky man, stinky man! Humph!
