Lu Qinglin was observing the people moving around in the car when suddenly his right shoulder sank. He turned around and saw a furry head. The early morning sunlight shone on her tender little face, and the fine hairs were clearly visible. Her long black eyelashes occasionally trembled slightly.
At that moment, memories began to merge, and the thick layer of ice in Lu Qinglin's eyes began to loosen unconsciously.
Su's father Lu Yulong and Lu's father Lu Guan were good brothers who grew up together. After Lu Yulong got married, he would take his wife and daughter to live in the countryside for a few days whenever he had time. Su Tangxue and Lu Qinglin could be said to have known each other since childhood.
Lu Qinglin is ten years older than Su Tangxue. When Su Tangxue was a child, she couldn't speak standard English and could only follow Lu Qinglin and call him Sixth Brother.
All this changed after Lu's father passed away.
Lu Qinglin's temperament gradually turned cold from a lively and cheerful child. Even when he joined the army, he was still the quiet type.
Su Tangxue took a four-hour train ride and then a two-hour bus ride, but still hadn't arrived.
It would take another two hours of walking to reach the village.
Sihe County is large and is divided into Shanghe Village, Zhonghe Village and Xiahe Village. Lu Qinglin's home is in Shanghe Village, which is close to the foot of the mountain and is usually difficult to get to.
Under the scorching sun, wearing small leather shoes, dragging a suitcase in hand, Su Tangxue had not yet recovered from the motion sickness, but she had to hurry on. She wanted to settle down by the road and live in her own village from now on.
Finally, his feet ached so much that he could no longer walk, so he called out to the figure in front of him, "Lu Qinglin, can we take a break? My feet hurt!"
Lu Qinglin turned his head and saw Su Tangxue looking at him with a twisted face. She frowned slightly and started walking towards him.
"Where does it hurt?"
"Leather shoes rub your feet."
Lu Qinglin immediately squatted down to check. There was a slight wear and tear on Xueli's ankle, and a little blood was seeping out.
"Come up, I'll carry you."
For a moment, Su Tangxue's heart was pounding. He was indeed the male lead, powerful and responsible.
Su Tangxue didn't hesitate. Her feet were really painful. Every step she took felt like a knife cutting through them. In order not to delay the progress, she immediately lay on Lu Qinglin's back.
This was the first time in her life that Su Tangxue was carried on someone's back. She felt warm in her heart and couldn't help but speak out her true feelings.
"Lu Qinglin, you are so nice. I am almost falling in love with you."
But after saying that, Su Tangxue couldn't help but think about beating herself to death.
Lu Qinglin's expression showed no reaction, he remained indifferent and did not respond.
Su Tangxue was lively and found everything about this ancient creature novel, so she became more talkative, and all the time she was talking about little flowers or little grass.
In contrast, Lu Qinglin was very quiet. He carried Su Tangxue on his back and focused on getting on his way. He didn't even say a word.
I just thought she was from the city, had never seen the world, or had forgotten everything since she was a child.
Su Tangxue was not annoyed and continued to talk about her. Gradually, she became more bold towards Lu Qinglin and would occasionally ask him a few questions.
Lu Qinglin chose to answer based on his mood and the outrageousness of the question.
When they passed the village entrance, they happened to see the brigade leader leading the educated youth to work in the fields. Su Tangxue was afraid of embarrassment and asked Lu Qinglin to drop her off in advance.
Captain Li Bing recognized Lu Qinglin.
He walked over and patted Lu Qinglin on the shoulder, saying, "Qinglin, you didn't even tell me you were coming. I could have sent a bullock cart to pick you up."
"The team is busy with farming. How can I have the nerve to ask Uncle Li to send a bullock cart to pick me up?" Lu Qinglin said in a cold voice.
"You've really grown up a lot since joining the army!" Li Bing nodded with satisfaction. Suddenly, he turned his gaze and looked at Su Tangxue standing beside him. "Qinglin, who is this?"
