Mei Xiangcao went into the house to get a flashlight and gave it to Jiang Ye: "Shine it on Nuannuan."
Xu Nuannuan and Jiang Ye went out together. It was pitch black outside. Jiang Ye turned on the flashlight, shone a bright circle of light on the ground, pointed it at the direction where Xu Nuannuan walked, and disappeared into the darkness.
Xu Nuannuan laughed and said, "You only light the way for me, how can you see clearly?"
His eyes fell on the circle of light below her, so he moved towards her and moved the circle of light of the flashlight forward so that the road in front of them could be illuminated.
Jiang Ye had a psychological struggle when he approached him just now. He was wondering if Xu Nuannuan would subconsciously move away from him and continue to keep a distance from him after he approached.
If she stays away from him, it either means that she really has someone else as her partner, or it simply means that she doesn't like him and doesn't want him to get too close.
However, the fact is that she did not stay away from him, so the previous two assumptions are not true.
"Comrade Jiang Ye, why didn't you go to your cousin's house for a drink today? According to your cousin's family, Zhang Xiaogang actually wanted your cousin to treat you two. Why didn't you go?"
"I, I wasn't feeling well, so I didn't go."
"Are you feeling unwell? Where do you feel unwell?" Xu Nuannuan stopped and said, "If you had told me just now, I would have taken a look. It's okay, you can take a look now."
"I'm fine now. I don't feel uncomfortable anymore." Jiang Ye said with a smile. He thought about it and decided to ask Xu Nuannuan about the identity of the man at the post office door today. If it was confirmed that the man and Xu Nuannuan were not in the relationship he thought, he felt that he could speak out his heart.
"Xu Zhiqing, I want to ask."
He had just uttered these words when he suddenly noticed a figure sneaking around the well.
"There's someone over there."
Xu Nuannuan also saw it, "There is someone, let's go and take a look."
There are two wells in the village, which supply drinking water to all villagers and play a vital role in the entire village.
They were all quite fast and rushed to the well, where they found Zhao Pandi standing by the well.
Xu Nuannuan grabbed her and said, "What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Zhao Pandi was caught, but she didn't seem nervous at all and just wiped away a few tears.
"Meng Anbei has been captured, Dabao is missing, we've all been evacuated, and everyone in the village is against me. I can't live anymore. I want to die, let me die."
Xu Nuannuan did not persuade her, but let her go.
"So you're someone who wants to commit suicide to save food for the country and the collective. Go ahead and die. But if you jump into the well, you'll pollute the water. There are a thousand ways to die. I think you can hang yourself at home, hit your head against the wall, or drink poison to death. Just don't pollute the water everyone drinks."
Zhao Pandi snorted coldly, "What are you talking about? It was you who reported our Meng An, otherwise he wouldn't have been arrested. I don't want to live anymore anyway, so why not avenge Meng An before I die? Bitch, I'm going to strangle you to death."
As she spoke, she reached out to pinch Xu Nuannuan's neck. Before her hand touched Xu Nuannuan, Jiang Ye kicked him away without Xu Nuannuan having to make a move.
She fell to the ground unwillingly and rushed towards Xu Nuannuan again. This time, as expected, she was kicked out again, and she screamed in pain.
"Murder, murder, someone is going to kill someone."
Perhaps her shouting was too loud and woke up some of the members around her, so someone came out to check what was going on and saw that the person shouting was Zhao Pandi.
Zhao Pandi told the man that Jiang Ye and Ye Nuannuan had hit her. The man shook his arm and said, "Well done, well done! The people of the Shen family have done so many evil things, they deserve to be beaten."
Zhao Pandi glared at the man in the dark, feeling extremely hateful.
You are all bad people, go to hell.
Later, someone else came out of her house and said the same thing to her. Since no one helped her, she quickly got up from the ground and went home in shame.
Jiang Ye and Xu Nuannuan walked for a while. Xu Nuannuan remembered what Jiang Ye wanted to say to her just now, but after what happened just now, there was no follow-up.
She didn't ask any questions, but waited for him to speak.
When they were about to reach the educated youth station, they came to a relatively open area. Jiang Ye stopped again and called her, "Xu Zhiqing."
"Hmm?" Xu Nuannuan also stopped.
In the darkness, they stared at each other. Jiang Ye mustered up his courage and asked Xu Nuannuan, "Xu Zhiqing, I actually want to ask you a personal question. Do you have a partner now?"
Xu Nuannuan suddenly smiled: "I just told you a few days ago that there wasn't one. It won't be available so soon."
"That's great." That Fang Wenji wasn't like that at all. He finally felt relieved and continued, "Xu Zhiqing, I know you're a smart girl. When a man asks you about this, you should know what he's thinking."
Xu Nuannuan didn't say anything and continued to listen to him, but she found that her heartbeat had quickened.
In this life, it was the first time I heard the gay man I liked confess his love to me. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous.
Jiang Ye continued, "Xu Zhiqing, I know we haven't known each other for long, and you probably don't have a deep understanding of me. However, I've always thought you're great. From the first time I saw you, I was attracted to you. You're the first girl I've ever liked... It might be too early to say these words now, but I'm afraid if I don't say them, I won't have the chance to say them later."
Xu Zhiqing, I have been holding this sentence in my heart for several days. I also wanted to wait until we had spent more time together and you understood me thoroughly before I said it, but I found that I couldn't wait any longer.
