Chapter 14: Don't Come Near Me
Chen Miaomiao's smile faded, and Lu Miao withdrew his gaze and said coldly:
"I can't control what you want to do, but I'm telling you clearly, it's best not to get close to me."
This is both a reminder and a warning.
Lu Miao had no control over who Chen Miaomiao wanted to curry favor with or conquer.
But if Chen Miaomiao insists on coming up to disgust her, don't blame her for being rude.
Chen Miaomiao nodded and forced a smile, "I, I understand."
After saying that, he stumbled over the threshold and temporarily disappeared from Lu Miao's sight.
Lu Miao rolled his eyes, took a deep breath, and complained softly:
"Hiss...it hurts, Ren Bingxin, be gentler!"
"Okay, okay, it'll be over soon. Just bear with it." Ren Bingxin slowed down her movements. "Miaomiao, although Chen Miaomiao is a bit strange, she did speak up for you just now. I don't think you should say that to her."
Geng Xiaoyun also said:
"Yeah. We didn't have any conflicts before. Why do you dislike her so much?"
"If I don't like it, I don't like it. Do I need a reason?"
They both sided with Chen Miaomiao. Lu Miao was unhappy and pulled back her hand to stop Ren Bingxin from picking her blisters. "I just feel uncomfortable and uneasy being with her. What's the problem? She insisted on sticking to me!"
"Besides, I just asked her not to get close to me. I didn't say anything!"
This is indeed the case.
Moreover, Geng Xiaoyun also understood Lu Miao's personality a little bit. Anyone she liked was really generous, willing to spend money, and not stingy.
But if she doesn't like it, her words will be really unforgiving.
Seeing Lu Miao acting like a little girl again, Geng Xiaoyun quickly coaxed her:
"Okay, I didn't say you were wrong. You're so quick-tempered, and I'm just worried that others will have a bad impression of you."
Lu Miao snorted lightly.
Geng Xiaoyun's words reminded her that in the future, when she met someone she didn't like, she could argue with him or her, but she also had to pay attention to the direction of the response and not let people think she was bullying them.
It would be fine if it happened once or twice, but if it happens too often, even if she is right, the public may not be willing to stand on her side.
After spending a few days in the cornfield, working in the morning and resting in the afternoon, Lu Miao's sunburn on his face not only did not heal, but became more and more serious.
When the peeling is severe, it is not only painful, but the reflection in the water is also scary.
Lu Miao couldn't stand it anymore and asked for two days off before he had even started working for two days.
When she felt a little better, she went to see Chen Guifen again.
Last time she spoke in a subtle way, but this time she started crying and acting like a spoiled child:
"Aunt!"
It was lunch time at the He family's house. He Hongjin and Chen Guifen were eating at the table, and Fu Jingyou was also present.
Lu Miao suddenly came running over crying. Chen Guifen was startled, thinking something had happened. She quickly pulled her aside and sat her down. "What's wrong? Why are you still crying? What happened?"
"Auntie, I've been working very hard recently. Look, my hands are almost covered with calluses. My hands are almost used to it, but look at my face!"
Lu Miao first extended her hand, then tilted her face left and right, motioning Chen Guifen to look at her face:
"Auntie, it hurts so much, it never gets better, I can't sleep every day because of the pain!"
Chen Guifen glanced at Lu Miao's face and was also shocked. "Oh, is he badly sunburned? Did he work without a hat or something?"
Speaking of hats, Lu Miao glanced resentfully at Fu Jingyou who was eating at the table.
The latter's peripheral vision met hers, and he quickly turned slightly to avoid her gaze.
Lu Miao felt a pang of anger in her heart. But facing Chen Guifen, she acted well-behaved and sensible, and pleaded softly:
"Aunt, can you give me a job that doesn't get sunny next time?"
“Cough… cough cough——”
A grain of coarse grain choked into his trachea, and He Hongjin coughed violently.
Look, look what are these words?
Which member of the cooperative doesn’t work under the scorching sun?
And assign a job that doesn't make the sun shine...
What? Is she going to pick the sun down or something?
He Hongjin glared at Chen Guifen, and his meaning was obvious.
Chen Guifen was a little embarrassed, but Lu Miao still held her arm and shook it gently, calling her "Auntie Auntie" all the time, which was so sweet.
Otherwise, why do they say that crying children get candy?
Chen Guifen sighed and said:
"I remember there are some plots of land next to the woods. There's more shade there. Why don't you try that one tomorrow?"
Lu Miao's eyes lit up in an instant, "Thank you, Auntie! You are so kind!"
He Hongjin let out a breath, left the table with a gloomy face and went straight to the kitchen to eat.
Lu Miao's eyebrows and eyes were bright and almost ostentatious, and this smile made her look even more beautiful and charming.
No one would dislike a pretty little girl. Seeing Lu Miao smiling, Chen Guifen also started laughing, and she didn't even notice He Hongjin leaving the table.
Chen Guifen held Lu Miao's soft little hand and squeezed it, then asked curiously:
"Come here at this time, have you had lunch yet?"
Lu Miao shook his head truthfully.
Chen Guifen smiled. "There's still some porridge in the pot. Can I serve you some?"
Lu Miao's eyes sparkled, "Is it okay?"
"Why not?"
Chen Guifen stood up with a smile and went to serve porridge to Lu Miao.
Seeing her walk away, Lu Miao groped his way to the main table and sat down opposite Fu Jingyou.
She didn't say anything, but just pouted and glared at Fu Jingyou stubbornly.
Fu Jingyou had no choice but to turn around and look at her. When he saw her, he was stunned.
The little girl's skin, which was as delicate as a baby's, was really "broken" this time.
Probably because of his white complexion, the sunburn on Lu Miao's face was very obvious. His skin looked like it had been burned. Not only was it peeling, but it also had a faint purple bruise, which formed an extreme contrast with his previous appearance.
He didn't knit her a hat...
For a moment, Fu Jingyou felt guilty.
Seeing that Fu Jingyou was staring at her face, she thought that her face had not recovered yet and must look extremely ugly at this moment.
Lu Miao hurriedly raised his hands to cover his face, his watery eyes widened in anger, and he cursed in a delicate voice:
"fraud!"
It's all Fu Jingyou's fault. He clearly promised to knit her a hat, but it's been so long and he still hasn't finished it...
It's all his fault that she became so ugly!
Lu Miao was originally very angry, but when he thought about the embarrassment of hiding and not daring to see anyone these past few days, he felt aggrieved and sobbed, and his watery eyes really misted up again.
Is this person made of water? Why does he cry so easily?
Fu Jingyou was dumbfounded. His usually cold and indifferent face suddenly became bewildered. "I'm not lying to you. I knitted a hat, but I haven't finished it yet..."
Fu Jingyou didn't dare to say that he didn't make it up, and only promised Lu Miao:
"Don't cry, I will give it to you today!"
Lu Miao's long eyelashes were covered with crystal tears, and she glanced at Fu Jingyou sideways with grievance:
"real?"
She was born pure and pretty, and usually when she begged people with sweet words, it was hard for people to refuse her. Now, with tears in her eyes and aggrieved look on her face, it made people even more reluctant to ignore her.
Fu Jingyou was silent for a moment, then nodded firmly.
