The savior Jiang Wanpeng brought was none other than Gu Zhiyun!
The two men, carrying toolboxes on their shoulders and lifting a barrel of diesel fuel together, walked toward the truck.
Shen Jingyan's brow twitched.
How could she explain riding in Jiang Wanpeng's truck to town?
Just as she was feeling uneasy, the two of them walked over.
As he passed through the car window, Gu Zhiyun glanced at her and casually tossed a water bottle into the driver's seat.
The kettle landed squarely on Shen Jingyan's lap.
The kettle was warm, and the warm feeling quickly spread from her thighs to her whole body.
A slight stirring in Shen Jingyan's heart caused her to place her hands over the kettle. Her hands, which had been stiff from the cold, slowly regained feeling.
She curled her lips into a smile, hugged the kettle to her chest, and gently stroked the words engraved on it with her fingertips.
The characters "Gu Zhiyun" are written in a strong and vigorous style, clearly indicating that Gu Zhiyun carved them himself.
Holding the water bottle felt like leaning against Gu Zhiyun's broad chest—warm and giving her a strong sense of security.
Wait a minute...
Gu Zhiyun is always meticulous, so it's no coincidence that he brought a kettle filled with hot water to repair the truck!
The act of throwing the water bottle through the car window wasn't random; it was...
The kettle was originally prepared for her!
In other words, Gu Zhiyun knew she was in the car all along!
Shen Jingyan's body, which had just warmed up, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat again.
This morning, Gu Zhiyun saw her riding in the truck driven by Jiang Wanpeng.
Oh no, this is another misunderstanding! How is she going to explain this?
Gu Zhiyun was still angry that she had mistakenly thought she had taken the initiative to go on a blind date with Jiang Wanpeng!
Last night, her lips were almost swollen from being kissed so much. She sacrificed so much, but she still hasn't gotten 10,000 points.
Now Gu Zhiyun is even angrier!
Sitting in the driver's seat, Chen Jingyan was feeling agitated as she touched the water bottle. Underneath the truck, Gu Zhiyun quickly fixed the leaking fuel tank.
When he crawled out from under the truck, Jiang Wanpeng reached out to help him up.
Gu Zhiyun merely glanced at him coldly, didn't reach out, and with a leap of her long legs, nimbly climbed out from under the car.
"Comrade Gu, I never knew you could repair trucks! You're truly a jack-of-all-trades!"
Jiang Wanpeng praised sincerely.
He had previously thought that Gu Zhiyun was just an intellectual who was good with a pen, and that he was good for nothing except for his eloquence.
"You'll be able to fix it after driving it for a while," Gu Zhiyun said casually.
The truck was refueled, and the two men walked toward the driver's seat together.
Gu Zhiyun opened the driver's seat door before Jiang Wanpeng and sat in the steering wheel.
Jiang Wanpeng's expression was somewhat flustered: "Comrade Gu, I was driving this car..."
Gu Zhiyun first glanced at Shen Jingyan sitting next to him.
The little girl obediently held the water bottle, her big, watery eyes fixed on him.
Gu Zhiyun smiled and said politely, "You've driven all the way, take a rest. I'll drive the rest of the way."
After saying that, he slammed the door shut.
Jiang Wanpeng was driving, and he let his little girl sit next to the soldier while he sat in the back of the truck, exposed to the elements.
Don't even think about it!
Jiang Wanpeng stood still.
For some reason, when he saw Shen Jingyan sitting next to Gu Zhiyun without moving, a strange sense of crisis rose in his heart.
Something's not right. When he was driving, the little girl was sitting very, very far away, so far that he couldn't even touch a single hair on her head!
But why was the little girl sitting calmly next to Gu Zhiyun while he was driving?
Could it be that the young girl has a better feeling for Gu Zhiyun than for him?
He had a competitive personality in the army, and his unwillingness to admit defeat came out immediately.
"Comrade Jiang, the driver's cab is not very spacious, so please sit in the back."
A subtle glint of cunning flashed in Gu Zhiyun's eyes.
Shen Jingyan thought to herself: You, Gu Zhiyun, are actually quite cunning!
Jiang Wanpeng glanced at the back of the truck.
Why can Gu Zhiyun sit with Shen Jingyan while he has to sit in the back and starve?
He walked to the other door of the driver's cab, opened it, and squeezed into the cab.
"This seat is quite long; it can easily seat three people!"
As soon as he squeezed in, the space in the driver's cab immediately became much cramped.
Three skinny people could sit in the driver's seat without any problem.
The problem is that Gu Zhiyun is 1.85 meters tall, and Jiang Wanpeng is also 1.8 meters tall and particularly strong.
Two people can fill the driver's cab completely.
Shen Jingyan was squeezed in the middle, with Gu Zhiyun on her left and Jiang Wanpeng on her right, so that she barely had any room to breathe.
The two men exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with displeasure.
Sparks seemed to crackle and pop in the air.
Shen Jingyan clenched her fists nervously.
Something's off, really off...
They were fine just now, but now they seem like they're about to start a fight.
Shen Jingyan felt that she was surrounded by a tiger on her left and a wolf on her right, and she was like a pitiful little white rabbit. In the fight between the tiger and the wolf, whoever won would become her food.
She moved her left arm with difficulty and said to Gu Zhiyun, "Yun... Comrade Gu, please drive quickly."
Gu Zhiyun withdrew his sharp gaze and started the truck.
Throughout the journey, both men sat ramrod straight with tense faces.
Chen Jingyan was caught in the middle, his mouth dry and his throat parched.
It was still freezing cold, but she felt as if she were surrounded by two huge furnaces, each one blazing hotter than the last, almost baking her dry.
She unscrewed the lid of the kettle and started drinking the water with gulps.
The water even had a slightly sweet taste, which was due to the addition of rock sugar.
"Jingya, you..."
Jiang Wanpeng watched in surprise as Shen Jingyan drank half a pot of water. "Isn't this pot Comrade Gu's..."
Why did the little girl drink Gu Zhiyun's water without any hesitation?
Chen Jingyan felt a sudden sense of unease.
I was careless!
How could she drink Gu Zhiyun's water right in front of Jiang Wanpeng!
Their relationship was not made public. In this conservative era, a man and a woman sharing a kettle is practically equivalent to an indirect kiss!
Seeing Jiang Wanpeng's shocked expression, Gu Zhiyun raised his eyebrows triumphantly. Then, under Jiang Wanpeng's astonished gaze, he took the water bottle from Shen Jingyan's hand and drank the rest of the water clean.
Jiang Wanpeng: "Comrade Gu, you..."
Gu Zhiyun didn't say anything, but his eyes clearly told him: We've been sharing a water bottle, so you've already lost your chance!
"You two..."
"Well... I... Comrade Gu has been in Dalin Village for three years, we're quite familiar with each other..."
Chen Jingyan stammered as she explained.
Gu Zhiyun said frankly, "Comrade Jiang, I also want to date Jingya. The matchmaker I hired has already gone directly to her uncle to propose marriage."
Jiang Wanpeng: "???"
Chen Jingyan: "???"
