Chapter 73 The sudden confession scared him
Zhao Linfeng had a boyfriend before she went to the countryside, but her boyfriend joined the army. After that, they broke up and got back together several times in the end. Zhao Linfeng is not a person who is content with loneliness. She has dated two boyfriends in the past four years. The first one lasted for half a year before he joined the army. The second one returned to the city and worked in a factory last year. In total, they were single for less than a year!
It may be true that she was attracted to Jiang Zian, but it was not entirely out of attraction; it was also out of curiosity! After all, Jiang Zian is indeed handsome, and his temperament is different from that of the male educated youth. In addition, there are many legends about him. This may be the reason why Zhao Linfeng had the idea of flirting with him! I just ate too much of the same food and wanted to change the taste. After the novelty wears off, the passion may fade away, but Jiang Zian won't be easily seduced by her, he knows his own limitations.
In his previous life, An Linfeng was admitted to the Art Academy and became a famous singer. When he was having an affair with Jiang Zian, Huo Qingqing's life was on the decline. Her husband did not come home, and when he did, he suppressed her in various ways. She was not living a happy life and no one wanted to see her.
Liang Li said, "Think of a way to let them see less often! Don't wait until something happens and it will be too late." Liang Li is Zhao Linfeng's good friend. She is worried that Zhao Linfeng will follow the same path as Huo Qingqing, and there will be no turning back.
Even though Liang Li kept praising Han Jianwu in front of Huo Qingqing and envying her good life, she actually looked down on her in her heart. Behind her back, she had the same opinion as everyone else that there was a high probability that she would not be able to go back in this lifetime.
Just like what some educated youth said, "It's not worth sacrificing your whole life for the sake of temporary enjoyment."
Of course Huo Qingqing could understand what Liang Li meant. Wasn't she just worried that Zhao Linfeng would follow her path?
Huo Qingqing smiled and said, "We are all adults and can be responsible for our own actions. She has been in the countryside for four years and she is not new here. You can rest assured. She knows what is going on."
Liang Li: "I'm just worried that she doesn't know what's going on."
Jiang Zian and Han Jianwu made臊子面 for them with dried noodles. But when the two came, Huo Qingqing asked them if they had eaten. If you haven’t eaten yet, let’s eat together. As a result, Zhao Linfeng said, “I came to your restaurant to eat! You have to pay!”
So Han Jianwu cooked two more bowls of noodles.
The臊子面 made by Han Jianwu was so delicious that Zhao Linfeng and Liang Li wanted to have a second bowl but they held back.
After the meal, the two beauties offered money, but Huo Qingqing refused to accept it. "Why give me money on New Year's Day? Maybe next time!"
From the time the two educated youths came in until they finished their meal, Jiang Zi'an worked with his lips pursed, without saying a word or looking at the beauties. He looked as calm and composed as a monk.
Zhao Linfeng made small talk, "It's embarrassing to eat for free, how about Liang Li and I wash the dishes?"
Huo Qingqing, "It would be better if you just sit by the fire and don't make any more trouble. Two grown men are asking you to wash the dishes here?"
Zhao Linfeng said "Oh", and finally couldn't help looking at Jiang Zian, and said: "Hey? Your name is Jiang Zian, right?"
Jiang Zian glanced at Zhao Linfeng and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhao Linfeng, "It's okay! I'm just curious if I've offended you in some way. Why do you act like you don't know us?"
Huo Qingqing and Han Jianwu looked at each other, then at Liang Li. Was this guy unable to hold it in, or was he dizzy from eating too much?
Jiang Zian, "No, I'm just not very familiar with him."
Zhao Linfeng said, "Oh! I knew it! It was you who escorted us back from Qingqing's house that day! How come you don't know each other when we meet today? You thought I had offended you?"
Jiang Zian, "No." They were not from the same world, why would he cause trouble for himself?
After clearing away the pots and pans and putting out the fire in the stove, Huo Qingqing said, "Then we'll go home. The next time we open the store will be in February when the market opens."
Seeing them walking away, Zhao Linfeng ran to catch up with them and looked at Jiang Zian, "Jiang Zian, can I have a word with you alone?"
Huo Qingqing "?"
Jiang Zian pursed his lips and looked at Zhao Linfeng, "If you have anything to say, just say it here. We are not outsiders."
Zhao Linfeng looked at Huo Qingqing, "Qingqing, you guys go first!"
Han Jianwu looked at Jiang Zian, "What's going on?"
Jiang Zian: "I don't know either."
Liang Li had already caught up and grabbed Zhao Linfeng, "Zhao Linfeng, you crazy woman, what are you doing?"
Zhao Linfeng, "Stop minding your own business."
Huo Qingqing: "???" She was really shocked by Zhao Linfeng's behavior. She only knew that she had a cheerful personality and was fearless. She would get over the breakup in less than a day. In fact, she had a bad reputation on the farm. After all, many girls couldn't do what she did.
Huo Qingqing pulled Liang Li away, "Don't worry about it. What could happen in public? Since she is not giving up, let her talk."
Zhao Linfeng looked at Jiang Zian, "Do you have a partner?"
"No."
"So how about we both get along?"
Jiang Zian's pupils trembled slightly, and he frowned and said, "Not very good." After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
Zhao Linfeng opened his arms to block him, "What do you mean?"
Jiang Zian, "Why should I ask you what you mean? Why are you making fun of me?"
Zhao Linfeng, "You, you." His eyes turned red with anger.
Seeing that he had made the man cry, Jiang Zian softened his voice and said, "No, I just feel that we are not familiar with each other at all. What you said is weird. What's more, you, an educated youth, suddenly said this to me, a farmer. I really think... you are very strange." He swallowed the abnormal words back.
Zhao Linfeng, "It may seem strange to you, but not to me. I have noticed you for a long time. I am not making fun of you on a whim. I really like you and want to be with you."
"..." Jiang Zian didn't know what to do. He looked at Han Jianwu in the distance. The man was holding two kids and talking to Huo Qingqing and Liang Li. He didn't even look in their direction!
Save him! This woman must be crazy.
Zhao Linfeng also made a sudden decision. After he said this, he didn't feel it was so difficult and he relaxed. Then he realized that he had scared the man. A normal person would be scared by her confession without any reason.
Zhao Linfeng said, "But I may have to go back to the city next month, so you don't have to feel burdened. But I must say this before I go back to the city, otherwise you will regret it if you hold it in."
Jiang Zian, "What do you like about me?"
Zhao Linfeng, "You are so handsome!"
Jiang Zian couldn't help but chuckle, then quickly turned stern and said, "Can I go now?"
Zhao Linfeng, "You haven't said a word to me yet?"
Jiang Zian, "Thank you for your sympathy. I have to go to work starting tomorrow." I don't have time to play with you.
When Huo Qingqing and her husband, along with their child and Jiang Zian, walked to the foot of Nanshan Mountain, Huo Qingqing gave Han Jianwu a look. Han Jianwu asked Jiang Zian what Zhao Zhiqing had said to him.
Jiang Zian said, "I guess that woman was stimulated by something and is just talking nonsense."
