Chapter 297 Have you cried?
A few minutes later, Lin Ya endured the pain in her feet and walked quickly into the woods, followed closely by Qi Yue.
The two of them walked deeper into the forest. Since it was the afternoon and everyone was taking shelter from the rain, there were not many people here.
Lin Ya still looked around vigilantly and lowered her voice and said, "To make a long story short, Wu Yue may come at any time."
Qi Yue grabbed her wrist and squeezed it hard, "Are you doing this on purpose? You always make excuses every time we meet!"
“Let go!” Lin Ya struggled but failed to break free. “I ran into him when I was meeting you today, and he intercepted me!”
Qi Yue sneered and shook her off: "Your brother's test report."
He pulled out a photo from his inner pocket, shook it, and put it back: "The lung infection is out of control and it's getting worse."
Lin Ya's pupils suddenly shrank, and she reached out to grab it: "Give it to me!"
"Want it?" Qi Yue suddenly pinched her chin and forced her to look up. "The higher-ups are very unhappy with us. We are unlucky enough after losing Xia Nan. I gave you so much time, but you couldn't get rid of Xu Nuo and take down Lu Chen. What do you do every day?"
"I'm trying my best. And you also said that this is not something that can be achieved overnight, so let me be cautious." Lin Ya said coldly.
"I've changed my mind now." He said viciously, "If you don't complete this task by the end of the year, your brother will die! And you won't be able to live any longer either!"
Lin Ya's voice trembled: "But it is illegal to destroy a military marriage."
"Ha!" Qi Yue pushed her against the tree trunk behind him. "Stealing secrets is not a crime? Let me tell you, the higher-ups have already found out that Lu Chen was on a business trip some time ago and participated in a big project related to technology and weapons. He is a key training target in the army, to put it bluntly, a big fish! If you can't handle him, I don't need to tell you the consequences again."
Lin Ya turned her face away, tears falling from the corners of her eyes: "I'm already trying hard. I'm trying to chase Xu Nuo away."
"You call that hard work? Lin Ya, use your brain!"
Facing Qi Yue's scolding, Lin Ya felt very angry.
"Okay, I came here to remind you to hurry up and take down Lu Chen! Oh, and stay away from Wu Yue. You're in a relationship with him, so how can you get close to Lu Chen? Do you hear me?"
Lin Ya bit her lower lip and nodded slightly: "I understand."
After coming out of the woods, Lin Ya went to the bathroom. When she came out, she ran into Wu Yue who was wandering at the door.
He held two wet tickets in his hands, and dark water marks appeared on the shoulders of his military uniform.
"I saw that you had been here for such a long time, and I was afraid that you might be lost, so I came to look for you." Wu Yue explained awkwardly.
"How long have you been here?" Lin Ya asked.
"Just arrived." As Wu Yue was speaking, he noticed that Lin Ya's eyes were red. He was startled and asked hurriedly, "Have you cried?"
Lin Ya subconsciously touched the corner of her eyes, and her fingertips felt wet.
"Yeah." Since it seemed so obvious, there was no need for her to deny it, so she said, "I just met an unreasonable person. It was obviously my seat that I got first, but she took it away from me, and she even had a quarrel with me. I was tongue-tied and couldn't win the argument with her, so the more I thought about it, the angrier I got, and then I started crying."
Wu Yue clenched his fists and made a creaking sound: "Who is it? Point it out to me and I will help you vent your anger."
"Forget it." Lin Ya forced a smile, "They've already gone far away. Let's hurry up and get on the boat. Brother Lu Chen and sister-in-law must be getting anxious waiting."
"Okay, let's go!"
Wu Yue brought Lin Ya to the dock and handed the two tickets to the staff before they were allowed in.
They were floating on the river in a four-person pedal boat. The rain was still falling, and fine raindrops fell on the awning, lotus leaves, and water above their heads, making a rustling sound - quiet yet slightly noisy.
Xu Nuo noticed Lin Ya at this time. Her eyes seemed to be red again, as if she had been crying.
"Why are your eyes red?" Lu Chen seemed to have noticed this as well.
Before Lin Ya could say anything, Wu Yue explained for her: "Someone took her place in the toilet just now, and that person scolded her and made her cry."
Seeing Lu Chen frowning, Lin Ya hurriedly explained, "I'm just angry at myself for being tongue-tied. It seems I have to practice more in the future. If I encounter an argument with someone again, I must give it my best shot."
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Xu Nuo didn't care too much. He just smiled faintly and said, "Bring Wu Yue with you. He is very eloquent and will definitely win."
Wu Yue gave Lu Chen a look that said "good brother, you understand me".
Lin Yaquan pretended not to hear and looked into the distance, admiring the scenery.
The four of them floated on the lake for two hours. Seeing that the rain was getting heavier, they hurried to the shore.
Lu Chen bought three umbrellas to shelter from the rain. After leaving the park, they found a restaurant to have lunch, and then the four of them separated.
Xu Nuo saw that it was still early. She had taken out her passbook and put it in her bag before going out today to withdraw some pocket money, so she might as well withdraw some more money and buy a refrigerator at the mall.
Lu Chen agreed.
The two were quite lucky. When they arrived at the mall, they went straight to the refrigerator counter, handed in the coupon, paid the money, and bought the last refrigerator.
Lu Chen carried the refrigerator downstairs. Xu Nuo went to the door and called a tricycle to transport goods. He made a deal with the tricycle for ten yuan and asked the tricycle to help deliver them and the refrigerator home.
By the time I got home, it was already past five in the afternoon.
Xu Nuo was quite happy as he accomplished in one day what he had originally planned to do in two days.
After finishing all this, the two took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and curled up on the sofa looking at the photos taken during the day.
Wu Yue bought these two rolls of film to take pictures of Lin Ya. Unexpectedly, he only took less than five photos of him and Lin Ya in total, and the rest were all taken by Lu Chen and Xu Nuo.
Xu Nuo turned over the photo of Wu Yue and Lin Ya and laughed for a long time.
Suddenly, she remembered that Lin Ya's eyes were red when she came back from the toilet today, so she said to Lu Chen: "I remembered one thing. Your sister Lin Ya has cried more than once."
"What do you mean?" This was said incoherently, and Lu Chen was a little confused.
"I saw her eyes red several times when I was in the hospital, as if she had been crying." Xu Nuo recalled, "And she often got distracted for no apparent reason... Lu Chen, was your sister Lin Ya always so unhappy?"
If Xu Nuo hadn't told these things, Lu Chen would probably never have known about them.
"No, she has a cheerful personality and likes to laugh. She used to be a lively and enthusiastic girl." At least in Lu Chen's impression, that's how she was.
"Then do you feel that Lin Ya has changed a lot?"
"People change." Lu Chen said, "After so many years, it's normal for her to change. I'm not the same person I was before."
"No! That's not right!" Xu Nuo immediately retorted, "I think I know what's wrong."
