Chapter 40 Lu Chen is back



He stopped complaining and became more amiable.

Upon seeing Ye Zhiyu, a look of amazement flashed in his eyes, but the ticket was still the most important thing.

"Little sister, you need a stroller, right? Here, take it." He said in a cheerful tone.

Ye Zhiyu smiled and asked, "Then?"

Tian Xiaofen glanced around and, seeing that no one was paying attention to them, lowered her voice and said, "Milk powder."

Her niece recently gave birth, and for some reason, even though she ate well throughout her pregnancy and postpartum period, she didn't have much breast milk, which worried the whole family.

If she manages to get a milk powder coupon now, her family will shower her with praise.

Ye Zhiyu remained expressionless, pulled out a milk powder coupon from her bag, and then covered it with two pieces of chocolate.

"Thank you so much, ma'am. You're so kind. I'll take these two candies home and sweeten my child's mouth."

Tian Xiaofen laughed even harder, "Then I won't stand on ceremony, big sister."

To others, she is a helpful older sister and a grateful young woman, which makes them think how wonderful she is.

Only the two people involved in the transaction know the truth.

Ye Zhiyu pulled the small cart over.

Wu Wenwen asked curiously, "What did you say to that lady? Why is she so happy?"

She's been working in the countryside for two years, and every time she comes to pick up a package, this woman has never smiled.

"It's nothing. We gave her two chocolates and asked her to lend us her cart. Otherwise, we have too much stuff and we can't get it onto the oxcart."

When the group looked, they realized it was true; regardless of size, each of the five people had a package.

Ye Zhiyu didn't tell them about the milk powder coupons; the fewer people who knew, the safer it would be.

It will take two trips to deliver it. Since Ye Zhiyu is currently still considered a patient, she will wait here.

A moment later, Tian Xiaofen came over again, "Hey girl, do you have any extra milk powder coupons? Just two or three will do."

After the initial excitement, I realized that one can of formula might not be enough to last until the end of my postpartum period. Since I've already encountered this situation, I'll just switch to another can.

Ye Zhiyu raised an eyebrow, thinking that it wouldn't hurt to know more people, since she had plenty of money and tickets anyway.

So she nodded, suppressing her excitement, "Want to trade? I won't let you suffer a loss."

How would you like to change it?

She didn't agree immediately, not wanting to give the impression that she was being taken advantage of.

Tian Xiaofen coughed, glanced around, and then said, "I know someone at the slaughterhouse. I ordered a pig leg there, and I'll share half with you."

Although it's a bit much, it's not a bad deal. This girl looks like she has money. If she wants to change things in the future, she won't be anxious and unable to find a way.

Ye Zhiyu understood after a little thought, but since she wouldn't lose out, she agreed.

"When do you have time? I'll take you to get the pig's leg."

"It might be next week."

"Okay."

They quickly finished the two deliveries, put the trolley back in its place, and left.

......

After a bumpy hour-long ride, we finally arrived at the village entrance.

Just as she was wondering whether to give the old man who drove the cart two cents to take them home, Lu Chen rode up from behind on his bicycle and stopped next to her.

"Lu Chen?" Ye Zhiyu looked at him in surprise.

Her cheat code is back, and it's such a huge cheat code!

Then Lu Chen noticed that Ye Zhiyu's eyes were full of stars when she looked at him.

Although I was a little confused, I was more happy than puzzled. Seeing her as soon as I got back was the most important thing.

"Okay, I'll take it back for you?"

Lu Chen glanced at the packages on the oxcart. Based on his intuition, the two largest ones belonged to Ye Zhiyu.

"Okay." Ye Zhiyu readily agreed and quickly got out of the car.

Lu Chen secured Ye Zhiyu's package to the bicycle with a rope.

She glanced at the other female educated youths who looked similar and asked, "Do you need any help?"

Several people quickly waved their hands, shaking their heads like rattles, "No need, no need."

Just kidding, that's Lu Chen. Ever since Wu Wenwen saw Lu Chen at the foot of the mountain last time, she has been telling them about Lu Chen's heroic deeds.

He's someone who's fought bears; they wouldn't dare get too close to him.

If they anger someone, one punch could take half their lives.

Moreover, Lu Chen's face, combined with the scar on his brow bone, looks too fierce. Boss, my legs are weak, please let me go.

Seeing that they refused, Lu Chen did not press the matter. He had only asked them because helping Ye Zhiyu alone would be a bit conspicuous, and it was just a side thing. It was good that they refused.

As a result, this scene appeared on the road.

Lu Chen pushed his bicycle, which was loaded with things, forward effortlessly, while Ye Zhiyu strolled beside him with her hands free.

Wu Wenwen, Liu Shengnan, Wang Qing, and Zhou Xue followed at a distance that was just enough to hear Ye Zhiyu and Lu Chen talking.

It wasn't that they were deliberately eavesdropping; Ye Zhiyu and Lu Chen, a man and a woman, walking together on the street would easily attract gossip, so they didn't dare to stray too far away.

They could clearly hear Ye Zhiyu, who had been cold and ruthless to Fu Tingshen at the state-run restaurant, speaking to Lu Chen in a sweet and coquettish voice.

"Lu Chen, why are you back so soon? Wasn't it supposed to be a week?"

Lu Chen, whom they were afraid of, answered obediently and in great detail, without any perfunctory answers.

"It took two days to get from Northeast China to Haishi. We rested for one day, then picked up the goods from there and came back today."

He was telling her that he was listening to her and wasn't in a rush.

He completely forgot that they were supposed to rest for two days. He said that time was tight and the task was urgent, so he compressed the two-day loading time over there into one day. He wasn't in a hurry, but he made the other people work themselves to the bone.

"That sounds pretty relaxing. Is Shanghai fun?"

"It's alright, there are quite a lot of people."

"There are so many people, what's going on? I'm asking you, is it fun?"

Ye Zhiyu frowned, feeling that he was just giving her the runaround.

"I didn't notice." Lu Chen frowned and thought for a moment, but he really couldn't think of it.
