Chapter 41: I have a feeling that there is a secret hidden in his heart
She secretly took out the comic book that Xu Nuo had sorted out and stuffed it into her bag. After finishing these things, she locked Xu Nuo's drawer, returned to her seat and pretended nothing had happened.
Under the setting sun at dusk.
Lu Chen and Xu Nuo walked home side by side. Lu Chen was carrying a heavy load of vegetables, meat and some cooked food, while Xu Nuo was carrying a few bottles of soda.
"What time will your friend arrive?" Xu Nuo asked.
"It's about seven o'clock." Lu Chen raised his wrist to check the time. "There's still more than an hour to prepare dinner. Will we be able to make it in time?"
Xu Nuo nodded: "Yes! In time!"
"Thank you for your hard work tonight."
"Don't be so polite!" Xu Nuo said uncertainly, "My cooking skills are just average. I'm a little worried that I can't take good care of the guests for you."
Lu Chen's lips curled up slightly: "He's not picky. He can swallow any meal, no matter how bad it tastes."
"Is the requirement so low?"
"That's about right." Lu Chen said.
Xu Nuo suddenly felt a lot less pressure: "Okay, then I'll just do whatever I want!"
After returning home, Xu Nuo went straight into the kitchen, picking and washing vegetables, thinking about what to cook.
Fortunately, there are a lot of things to buy in the compound service center, including various vegetables, even luncheon meat, ham and so on.
She was surprised to find that there was even sesame paste.
Now it’s easier to explain!
You can make a few quick dishes easily!
When Xu Nuo was busy in the kitchen, someone knocked on the door. Lu Chen put down what he was holding and went out to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Xu Nuo saw a green figure rushing in. The other party seemed very happy to see Lu Chen and rushed forward to hug him tightly.
"Good brother! I'm finally back! I never thought in my life that I could still be with you!"
Lu Chen naturally raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "What's unexpected? We are soldiers, and we are deployed wherever the country needs us, right?"
"Did you expect that I would be transferred to the Southern Military Region?"
"No!"
"Yes! I thought I would be in the south for the rest of my life! I never expected that I would be back! To be honest, I, Wu Yue, don't want anyone else except you in this life!"
Lu Chen's mouth curled up: "Me too!"
"Hehehehe! Right!"
Xu Nuo's hand that was picking vegetables froze in mid-air as he watched two big men over 1.80 meters tall hugging each other and chatting animatedly for more than a minute.
Uh...this scene can be described as a reunion of lovers.
"Hey, you are really good! When did this become your arranged childhood marriage? I didn't know anything about it! You didn't even inform me about the marriage. You are so mean." Wu Yue couldn't help but complain.
If you don’t tell your good brother that he is getting married, does he still consider him as your own?
"I wanted to inform you, but Mr. Wu was seriously ill at that time, and you returned to the south in the blink of an eye. So, I didn't want to alarm you about my own affairs." Lu Chen said.
"That's true." Wu Yue nodded, feeling a little regretful. "It's a pity that I didn't see you get married. I heard about it from Uncle Lu."
As he spoke, he took out a red envelope from his pocket: "Here, you missed your wedding, so the gift money can't be missing!"
"You're welcome." Lu Chen took it and squeezed it in his hand. "It's quite thick."
"Of course, that's two months' allowance, brother!"
"You are so generous!" Lu Chen said with a smile, "You are so kind to me. I won't be able to repay you later."
"What the hell! What's the relationship between us? I'm willing to give you any feelings!" Wu Yue became more and more excited, "Come on, brother, give me a hug!"
Lu Chen smiled faintly and opened his arms.
Xu Nuo counted silently in his heart: two.
This is the second hug tonight!
She was a little curious. Aren't the two grown men just not seeing each other for a few years? Why would they keep hugging each other when they meet?
etc!
It doesn’t seem so!
Did Lu Chen go to see Wu Yue when it rained before the wedding?
"Come, sit down! I'll make you some tea!"
"You're very thoughtful!" Wu Yue sat down, picked up the cup and drank it in big gulps. "It's a bit rude, don't mind. It's too hot today, have another cup."
Lu Chen filled his tea cup again.
Wu Yue looked around the room and began to sigh: "Wow, it's really different with a woman here and without a woman here. Your house has a bit of a homely and warm feeling."
Lu Chen looked around, smiled and nodded.
"Hey, let me ask you, are you really planning to live with her?" Wu Yue asked, "Didn't you say before that you would never get married? What made you change your mind? Are you not worried about those things anymore?"
Lu Chen was silent for a while, picked up the teacup, and whispered: "I don't know. Let's take it one step at a time."
"You are so careless!" Wu Yue seemed dissatisfied with Lu Chen. "How long did it take you to get over that? I thought you would never get married, but you turned around and left me behind! That was Lu Cheng's marriage, whether it succeeded or not was up to him! Why did you marry this child for him?"
Xu Nuo heard these words clearly in the kitchen.
What is that thing?
What left him?
Is marriage really a siege?
Could it be that Lu Chen married her just for the Lu family's face, so he fulfilled the marriage contract for Lu Cheng?
Thinking of this, Xu Nuo's heart sank inexplicably.
"It doesn't matter. If it doesn't work out, just divorce." Wu Yue said, "Brotherhood will always support you."
After a long pause, Lu Chen said slowly: "Let's talk about it later."
"Oh!" Wu Yue sighed softly, stretched out his arm and held Lu Chen's hand, then pulled Lu Chen into his arms.
"Three." Xu Nuo counted again.
The third time, the third hug tonight.
What is the relationship between these two people?
Xu Nuo realized that Lu Chen must be burdened with something, which was why he had not gotten married yet.
Could it be related to this Wu Yue?
But she quickly denied it, saying that both of them were soldiers, and the relationship between them must be a frank brotherhood!
Otherwise, two people wouldn't be able to hug each other so openly again and again.
But, what is Lu Chen hiding in his heart?
Xu Nuo wanted to know, but didn't know how to ask. After all, their current relationship seemed more like living together.
Forget it, let's take it one step at a time.
"It's time for dinner!" An hour later, Xu Nuo came out of the kitchen carrying two plates of food.
She had her hair tied in a high ponytail, wore a floral skirt, a striped apron around her waist, and had a bright smile on her face.
Wu Yue stood up upon hearing this. When he saw Xu Nuo, his eyes widened instantly: "This is... the girl from the countryside?"
Well, he got it first!
He used to feel sorry for Lu Chen, thinking that it was hard for Lu Chen to marry a country girl who knew nothing.
Why is the situation in front of me a little unexpected?
"Wu Yue, right? I'm Xu Nuo! The meal is ready, please take a seat!" She turned out to be Lu Chen's friend. No matter whether the other party had any opinions about her or not, she had to greet him warmly.
Now it was Wu Yue's turn to stutter: "Hello... Hello, sister-in-law!"
"Little sister-in-law?" Xu Nuo couldn't help but frowned when he heard this title, "Is there a big sister-in-law?"
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I meant that you are young!" Wu Yue scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, "You are only eighteen years old! Old Lu is really an old cow eating young grass... He made a profit, really made a profit!"
Xu Nuo smiled and said, "Please sit down and eat first."
The specialty tonight is the spicy hot pot made by Xu Nuo herself. She likes to eat this on weekdays, so she replicated it tonight with the ingredients she had on hand.
In addition, I fried rapeseed hearts, tomatoes and eggs, and cut the luncheon meat and ham into a plate and served it on the table.
Soldiers are not allowed to drink alcohol, so they can only drink soda.
When the two brothers reunited, they were still feeling regretful about this incident, but the spicy hot pot that Xu Nuo provided hit both of their hearts hard.
This dish is spicy and numbing, and has a rich sesame paste, which makes it particularly appetizing.
Coincidentally, Wu Yue and Lu Chen both like spicy food. In the blink of an eye, you took a chopstick and I took a chopstick, and we almost finished the dish.
Seeing that Xu Nuo couldn't even finish two bites of food, Lu Chen quietly gave the last chopstick to Xu Nuo.
Xu Nuo looked up and happened to meet his eyes.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly: "Thank you."
When Wu Yue looked up again, he saw that the big bowl was empty. He was still unsatisfied, "It's delicious! Sister-in-law, this is the most appetizing thing I've ever eaten!"
"Come back if you want to eat it next time and I'll make it for you." Xu Nuo said politely.
"Okay! Then I'll take it seriously!"
"Um. "
Xu Nuo ate a few bites of food, then left all his time to Wu Yue and Lu Chen and went upstairs.
As soon as I sat down, the phone in the bedroom rang.
She picked up the phone and surprisingly, the call was from Xu Laoer and Liang Xiulan.
