Xu Ying and Li Yulan hugged each other, their bodies trembling like leaves, their minds blank with worry.
Isn't Lin Ye supposed to be wild and irritable? How come Lu Wanqing isn't afraid of him, and he's protecting her like she's a chick?
So, his savagery and temper are only reserved for outsiders!
Today I've really run into a bullseye.
Two figures flashed past the doorway, about to flee. Xu Ying, with her sharp eyes, spotted them and quickly shouted, "Liu Jie, Su Dazhuang, hurry and help! Lin Ye is going to beat someone up!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? My man would never beat people up. All you need to do is give me the money you owe me." Lu Wanqing didn't want anyone to misunderstand Lin Ye.
Her man is actually very gentle.
Liu Jie and Su Dazhuang, who were standing at the door, originally wanted to make a quick getaway when they saw Lin Ye standing there, but Xu Ying stopped them, and they were filled with hatred for her.
Everyone knows that the captain specifically told them not to mess with Lin Ye, otherwise he wouldn't be able to help them if they suffered losses. He could only trip up Lin Ye in the dark, and would never have a direct conflict with him.
"Xu Ying, just pay the money back to Lu Zhiqing. It's only right to pay back debts. Even if the Party Secretary and the brigade leader came, they would probably say the same thing," Liu Jie said, rubbing his nose. A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. He didn't need to speak up for Xu Ying. Usually, she didn't even give him a second glance, but now that she had a problem, she knew to ask for help.
Su Dazhuang chimed in, "You two, I told you not to take advantage of Lu Zhiqing, you should just pay her back!"
Despite his name, Su Dazhuang is actually quite thin and timid.
Li Yulan almost ground her back teeth to powder. These two had taken advantage of Lu Wanqing quite a bit before. She had only helped her with some work, and they thought that would make up for it. Now they were starting to boss them around.
However, forced by circumstances, she had no choice but to give in and get through this hurdle first, and settle accounts with Lu Wan later.
With trembling hands, she pulled a wad of cash from her pocket, counted it one bill at a time, and handed it to Lin Ye after counting ten bills: "Here's all my money. Here you go. Wanqing, you must have encountered some difficulties to do this. We'll still be friends."
"Pah!" Lu Wanqing thought to herself, "Who wants to be friends with you!"
When Xu Ying saw Li Yulan taking out money, she shoved her aside and started banging her head against the wall like a madwoman: "Are you trying to force me to my death?!"
Unexpectedly, she was lifted up by the back of her collar. Lin Ye lifted her up like a chick, leaving her completely airborne and unable to hit the wall. Her short legs kicked wildly in the air, but she couldn't hit anything.
"So many people are watching, Xu Ying, don't try this trick on me. If you don't pay me back now, I'll bring my man here every month so everyone knows what kind of person you are!" Lu Wanqing said, hands on her hips.
She stood beside the woods, exuding an imposing aura, like a little fox standing next to a tiger.
Lin Ye's heart trembled. His wife had said for the second time that he was her man. He was so excited!
Moreover, her tone was full of pride, her eyebrows were raised in a beaming manner, and she looked very smug.
Xu Ying had no choice but to beg for mercy with tears streaming down her face: "Okay, I'll pay you back. I only have 5 yuan in my pocket right now, I'll pay you back all of it, and I'll pay the rest next month!"
After hearing this, Lin Ye turned to look at Lu Wanqing, seemingly waiting for her to give instructions.
Lu Wanqing thought for a moment, then reluctantly nodded: "You'd better keep your word, or you'll see how formidable my man is!"
She was exhausted today and wanted to go home and rest early.
After Lin Ye and Lu Wanqing left, Xu Ying and Li Yulan huddled on the bed, unable to recover for a long time.
Even though Lin Ye hadn't touched them at all, they still felt like they had survived a disaster.
The two of them thought bitterly, "Lu Wanqing shouldn't be too smug. Once we get back, Lin Ye will show his true colors and definitely torment her."
Unbeknownst to them, the two who had left the house were now walking one after the other along a country path, feeling incredibly relaxed and happy.
They had a fight, and it was already dark by then.
The moonlight spread across the fields like a layer of silver gauze, giving people a dreamlike feeling.
Lu Wanqing held a snowball in her left hand and gently ran her right palm across the half-meter-tall rice seedlings, feeling a tingling, itchy sensation in her palm.
She looked up and saw the bright moon in the sky, then her gaze was drawn to the fireflies that suddenly appeared in the rice paddies. She took a deep breath and smelled the fragrance of rice seedlings. How wonderful it would be to walk with her beloved in such a clear night!
Shengli Production Brigade, under the jurisdiction of Hongqi Commune, has always been one of the top-ranked production brigades in the commune.
This is a typical land of fish and rice. The terrain of the entire brigade is varied, with rice paddies scattered in an orderly fashion, and the homes of the team members are like chess pieces, scattered in various places.
Lin Ye's home is at the end of the village, and there is a long ridge between the fields to walk along.
They passed several houses where people were eating by moonlight in the corridors. When they saw Lin Ye passing by, they quickly took their bowls and went inside. Then they saw Lu Wanqing following behind, and she was peeking out of the window.
Lu Wanqing chuckled as she looked at the burly figure in front of her.
Everyone's a little afraid of him!
Only she knew that when he cherished her, he was like a big dog.
The thought of how he doted on her in her previous life made her grin from ear to ear.
Suddenly, her forehead slammed into a solid wall of flesh. When she looked up, Lin Ye was staring at her with a flushed face.
He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, with very deep-set features. His skin was a bit dark, probably due to years of hard work.
Besides his obsidian-like eyes that captivated her, his thin lips were extremely sensual, and every kiss left her wanting more.
At this moment, he's looking down at her like this. Could it be that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and he wants to kiss her?
Lu Wanqing bit her lip, gently raised her head, and slowly closed her eyes.
To his surprise, Lin Ye simply led her to the front of him and then said softly:
"There's a pond ahead, walk carefully."
It turned out that they had gone to the pond where she had fallen in last time, and he just wanted to protect her and prevent her from falling in while she was confused.
Lu Wanqing felt a burning sensation in her ears. What on earth was she doing?
This is the 1970s; she has to be reserved and demure, or she'll be seen as a female hooligan.
Lin Ye, walking behind her, appeared calm on the surface, but inside he was setting off fireworks.
Just now, they were only a few centimeters apart, and he could see her delicate, porcelain-like skin—an unprecedented level of intimacy.
Moreover, she seemed to be smiling, tilting her head back, as if waiting...
No, impossible...
She went with Qi Wei.
She probably likes educated young men from well-off families like Qi Wei!
They are like a perfect couple; marrying her is already incredibly lucky, and he shouldn't have any unrealistic fantasies.
From now on, he will protect her as if she were his own eyes, and as for their marital life, he will only do so when she is willing.
She's still too young, and it's not the right time for her to have children...
He gazed at her petite figure from behind, as if everything around him had blurred, and only she shone brightly…
