Gu Changzheng was so anxious he wanted to hit someone.
Lu Huaijiao raised her hand and rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand.
I'm hungry.
Gu Changzheng: ? ? ?
Gu Changzheng, who had already rolled up his sleeves and was ready to fight anyone who bullied his wife, immediately lost his temper when he heard Lu Huaijiao's sweet voice saying she was hungry.
"You cried because you were hungry?"
"Is it not allowed?"
Lu Huaijiao sniffed her slightly red nose, looking utterly aggrieved.
She looked up, her eyes brimming with tears, and pitifully gazed at the man opposite her: "I only ate two bites of food for lunch today, and I didn't take a nap. I'm hungry, sleepy, and tired. Can't I shed a couple of tears?"
"Sure, of course."
Gu Changzheng smiled slightly, stepped forward and touched her hair, then looked up at the man standing not far away.
The smile on his lips turned cold.
However, when she looked down at the person in front of her, the coldness on her face disappeared completely, replaced by an incredibly doting and gentle expression.
"Our little darling has suffered such a great injustice, we need to go home and make up for it properly."
As he spoke, he turned around, then seemed to remember something, stood up again, and lifted the person up in his arms.
"Let's go home and eat chicken legs."
"I want to eat two."
Lu Huaijiao wrapped her arms around his neck and raised her face.
Her fair face was still wet with tears, but her expression was already quite proud.
Gu Changzheng felt incredibly soft-hearted.
"Okay, you can eat as many as you want."
"You're not allowed to take it from me."
"No, no, you're my ancestor! How could I dare to steal food from my ancestor?"
Gu Changzheng carried the person towards the tram station. Such an intimate and uninhibited action could probably only be done by Gu Changzheng and Lu Huaijiao.
There's a tram stop right outside the school gate, so the flow of people is quite large.
Moreover, the vast majority of them were from their school.
Many people around them turned to look.
The woman blushed slightly, and the man probably felt envious and jealous.
In short, what others think is none of Lu Huaijiao's business, as long as they don't come up to cause trouble for no reason.
The tram arrived shortly afterward, and Lu Huaijiao then got off Gu Changzheng's arms and pulled him onto the tram.
The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was beautiful and charming. Individually, they seemed like an unlikely match, but when they were together, they were exceptionally well-suited.
It seemed as if a barrier had automatically formed between them, one that no one could penetrate.
Whether it's the women who think Gu Changzheng is handsome or the men who think Lu Huaijiao is beautiful, they all realize at the same time that trying to get involved in their relationship is like trying to climb to heaven.
Zhao Lei, who had witnessed every single moment of this scene, also understood this principle.
After a moment's thought, he realized that their intimate actions were meant for him, to extinguish any lingering feelings he might have for Lu Huaijiao.
Zhao Lei smiled.
He turned and walked in the opposite direction.
She's just a woman, right? If she doesn't like him, that's her loss, he doesn't care. But why does he feel a little jealous of that man?
Judging from his clothes, he doesn't seem like a rich man. Why should a delicate flower like Lu Huaijiao be stuck with a piece of cow dung like him?
Zhao Lei, who had just convinced himself to give up a second ago, immediately changed his mind.
From childhood to adulthood, there's nothing he hasn't gotten what he wanted, and this time, he's determined to get Lu Huaijiao too...
The bus home was crowded; there were no seats left.
Gu Changzheng stood on the side closest to the aisle, using his body to block the people on the other side of the aisle, and made a small enclosure with his arms for Lu Huaijiao to stand inside.
It was cold in winter, so the car windows were closed.
The various smells inside the carriage were mixed together, making it a bit unpleasant.
Lu Huaijiao nestled gently in Gu Changzheng's arms, closing her eyes and dozing off.
The environment on the tram was actually not good, and for Lu Huaijiao, who was a pampered girl, it was even very bad.
But even in this environment, without even a seat, she leaned against Gu Changzheng's chest and almost fell asleep.
She kept banging her head against Gu Changzheng's chest like a chick pecking at rice.
"young married woman……"
Gu Changzheng was heartbroken.
He reached out and pulled her into a surprisingly tight embrace, telling her to hold on a little longer and go home to sleep.
Lu Huaijiao nuzzled her head against his chest and put her hands inside his coat to hug him.
"Let me sleep for a bit."
She was really sleepy.
Coupled with my inherent laziness, once I finally get close to someone who makes me feel at ease, sleepiness comes crashing down on me like a tidal wave.
She simply couldn't resist.
They couldn't withstand it either.
Gu Changzheng sighed silently.
"Go to sleep, I'll wake you up when we get home."
"good."
Lu Huaijiao spent almost the entire half-hour, shaky journey sleeping.
When the train arrived at the station, Gu Changzheng called out softly, and she slowly opened her eyes.
After taking a nap, she wasn't so sleepy anymore.
But I was still very hungry.
"I'm home, I'm home! Let's go home for dinner!" Lu Huaijiao jumped off the tram, full of energy, and walked home with great enthusiasm. She was so energetic that there was no trace of the tiredness she had just felt.
Gu Changzheng followed behind, shook his head with a smile, and started walking home.
His wife was wronged at school but didn't want to talk about it. He'll investigate and find out.
From the start of the school year, Gu Changzheng insisted on picking her up and dropping her off every day. Lu Huaijiao made do and adapted to school life. Before she knew it, winter had passed and summer had arrived.
The fifth month of the lunar calendar.
It's the hottest time of the year.
Lu Huaijiao had no classes in the afternoon, so she went home after school at noon.
On the tram, she saw a young woman who looked somewhat familiar. She was heavily pregnant and her eyes held a mixture of curiosity and trepidation about the unfamiliar environment.
Lu Huaijiao couldn't recall who the other person was for a moment.
She glanced at it briefly before looking away.
When the tram arrived at the station outside Tianshui Hutong, Lu Huaijiao picked up her things and got off the tram.
She noticed that the pregnant woman also got off at this station, but instead of walking towards Sweetwater Alley, she went towards the park.
Lu Huaijiao didn't take it to heart.
As she walked to the entrance of the alley, Gu Jianhua, who was sitting under a tree outside the convenience store enjoying the cool shade, greeted her when she saw her return.
"Why are you back? Didn't you have class this afternoon?"
They have been in the city for five months now, and both Gu Jianhua and He Meizhu have already integrated into life here.
He Meizhu takes care of most of the household affairs, while Gu Jianhua is responsible for looking after the convenience store and picking up his three grandsons from their after-school care class when he has free time.
Their small shop is doing surprisingly well; after deducting costs, they can earn about fifty yuan a month.
Neither Gu Changzheng nor Lu Huaijiao wanted the money. Their intention was that the money Gu Jianhua earned was their retirement money.
