Chapter 16: Men know men best. (1/2)



Li Sui's call of "Sister Xiaoxue" made Lu Qinglin extremely uncomfortable.

Look at the wild flowers in his hand.

Men understand men best.

The next moment, his deep eyes were filled with frost and his voice was calm.

"Xiaoxue is fine, she's out."

After Lu Qinglin finished speaking, his face turned as black as the ash at the bottom of a pot, and he exerted force with both hands to close the door.

"Then when will she come back?" Li Sui stretched out his hand to hold the door, with a pleading look on his face.

"I don't know." Lu Qinglin said coldly and closed the door directly.

"Hey, I'm not done yet! Is this how you treat your guests?"

Li Sui was not convinced and shouted at the wall.

However, the only response he got was a closed door.

Li Sui scratched his head in annoyance. Damn it, he was so busy asking where Xiaoxue was that he forgot to ask who the man was.

Could it be the fiancée his father mentioned?

Then he shook his head and denied this idea. It must be a relative of Xiaoxue's family. His father lied to him so that he could marry Fatty Erya from the next village.

He overheard it all at work today, and his father wanted to keep him in the dark!

Li Sui looked back, snorted and left.

As long as he doesn't hear Xiaoxue tell him that she's married, he won't give up! !

Not long after Li Sui left, Lu Shan came back with Su Tangxue.

It was getting dark, and Lu Shan was worried about his younger sister going back alone, so he escorted her all the way back.

"Fourth brother, please go back! If you're late, Second Uncle will beat you."

"What are you afraid of? Your fourth brother will be beaten no matter if he comes back early or late, so it's better for him to come back later!"

Su Tangxue said this, glancing up at her fourth brother and finally giving him a thumbs-up. "Fourth brother, you're so brave."

He was clean and tidy when he came here, but now his face and body are extremely dirty. Not only are there some mud spots on his face, but his trouser legs are even more terrible.

Even that grey shirt is going to be lost. If I go back like this, I’ll definitely get a beating from my second uncle!

In contrast, Su Tangxue looked clean and fresh. She had just been picking up some small snails and shrimps by the stream, and her clothes were not wet at all.

She now had reason to suspect that her fourth brother had skipped work to come and play with her, but in fact, he just wanted to play on his own.

Su Tangxue brought her fourth brother back home. After pushing the door for a long time, she found that it would not open. Helplessly, she could only shout to Lu Qinglin across the courtyard wall to open the door for them.

"Why did it suddenly close?" Su Tangxue was a little puzzled.

"I'm afraid the village dogs will come to visit."

Su Tangxue frowned slightly, "Is there anyone around here who has a dog?"

She had never even heard a dog barking. When did her neighbors get dogs?

Lu Qinglin remained silent. Just as he turned around and was about to leave, his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of the wild flowers in Su Tangxue's hand.

Lu Qinglin's thick eyebrows were tightly furrowed, his lips were tightly pursed, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

Su Tangxue saw Lu Qinglin staring at the flowers in her hand and thought he wanted them.

He immediately picked it up and said proudly, "It looks great, doesn't it? Fourth brother picked it for me."

Lu Qinglin looked at the gentle smile on Su Tangxue's face, and his frown slowly relaxed.

As long as it wasn't given by him.

Su Tangxue wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lu Shan's voice.

"Little sister, come quickly, these shrimps seem to be dying."

Following Lu Shan's words, she quickly ran over and saw that the small river shrimps in the basin had lost their vitality.

It might be because Lu Shan had been holding the shrimps in his clothes for too long, so they were all squeezed together and wilted.

Suddenly, she felt a little lost.
