Chapter 163 The Matchmaker Comes Again
Su Tang walked forward and looked at Wang Xinxin.
The hospital resumed normal work, so of course Su Tang had to go.
After all, the bacteria testing brought by Su Xinyao has not been completed yet.
Coupled with other messy things, she felt that only by being busy could she stop having random thoughts.
She didn't know how far Zhou Rui had come or how much danger there was in the northwest.
But Lu Xiao was right. Since nothing was happening, they should take precautions and not sit idly by.
Zhou Rui will definitely come back.
"What was that just now?"
Su Tang asked Sun Zhijie as he walked away, and Wang Xinxin explained to her.
"Did you meet Chen Zhengnian?"
Hearing this, Su Tang raised his eyebrows slightly.
Wouldn’t Chen Zhengnian be jealous when he sees Sun Zhijie?
Just as the two were talking, they walked to the door of their house and met the matchmaker from last time again.
"Sister Hong?"
"Hey, Xinxin is back?"
Sister Hong smiled and walked forward to hold her hand.
"I came here this time for no other reason than to go on that blind date."
"Wasn't he too embarrassed to talk about himself last time? This time, he said that if you're willing, he'll come to see you in person."
Wang Xinxin subconsciously glanced behind her, her cheeks suddenly turning red as if she was afraid someone would hear what she said.
"Sister Hong, didn't I tell you that I don't want to see you for the time being?"
Sister Hong seemed not to hear her rejection, and she squeezed her hand and smiled even more warmly.
"Oh, that guy is really good. He works at the county tractor station, a stable job! He's asked me to help him three times, saying he thinks you're a good match based on the photos."
"He likes her very much, otherwise he wouldn't come so many times. He said that if you agree, he will give you the full gift after three turns and one ring."
Su Tang saw it clearly from the side. Seeing Wang Xinxin's face flushed red, she hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Sister Hong, Xinxin is still young. There's no rush for this."
"What's so special about being a little girl? In two years, she'll be an old girl!"
Sister Hong's eyes moved around Wang Xinxin twice.
"Besides, we ordinary people don't want to climb high branches."
She didn't finish her words, but deliberately dragged out her tone. The scrutiny in her eyes made Wang Xinxin feel uncomfortable.
She had heard about what happened between Wang Xinxin and Chen Zhengnian.
But the two of them haven't decided yet, doesn't that mean that the other party doesn't agree to this?
Chen Zhengnian is quite good, but the difference between him and Wang Xinxin is as great as heaven and earth.
Different identities, different family backgrounds.
Wang Xinxin pulled her hand back and clutched the corner of her clothes: "Sister Hong, I make my own decisions about my own affairs, please don't mention it again."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the yard, his steps so fast as if he was running away.
Su Tang smiled apologetically at Sister Hong and followed her into the yard.
As soon as I closed the door, I saw Wang Xinxin sitting on the sofa.
"You really don't want to go?"
Su Tang handed over a cup of hot water.
Wang Xinxin looked up, her eyes misty: "Cousin, I don't like him."
"What about Chen Zhengnian?"
I heard Su Tang ask softly.
Wang Xinxin paused, her fingertips running across the daisies on the fabric, and after a long while she said sullenly, "He treats me like a sister."
"Would my sister keep the floral fabric for you to look at a little longer?"
Wang Xinxin raised her head and curled her lips: "Cousin, you are making fun of me too!"
"I'm serious with you."
Su Tang put away her smile and said, "If you really don't have any feelings for him, why were you so anxious when Sister Hong mentioned a blind date?"
These words exposed Wang Xinxin's forced calmness.
She buried her face in her knees and said in a muffled voice, "I just feel... I feel awkward."
Why did he feel awkward? Because he felt his attitude was unclear.
If you don't like her, why do you still tease her?
Is it really as Sun Zhijie said, that he is old and has to consider a lot?
"Things like love are something you can only think about on your own. We can't help you."
Su Tang stood up and left these words.
The people involved can't figure it out themselves, so no matter how much others say, it's useless.
At this time, Chen Zhengnian returned to the camp, still thinking about the backs of Wang Xinxin and Sun Zhijie walking away.
He didn't even see the comrades he ran into.
"Chen Lu, what are you thinking about? You didn't even hear me calling you."
Chen Zhengnian snapped back to his senses and saw that it was the communications soldier, Xiao Li. He frowned slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"
"I just received a call from division headquarters saying they're holding an emergency combat meeting at 3 p.m."
Xiao Li handed over the notebook and glanced at his face.
"Chen Lu, you don't look well. Did you not get enough rest last night?"
He responded vaguely, turned and walked towards the office building, but his steps were much heavier than usual.
The appearance of Sun Zhijie made him feel a great sense of crisis.
As soon as the office door closed, Lao Zhang came in with a document in his hand. "I heard that you went out to meet Wang Xinxin this morning?"
Chen Zhengnian paused as the pen in his fingers dripped onto the paper, leaving a black blob. "You're quite well-informed."
"Everyone in the camp knows about your affair."
Old Zhang leaned back in his chair and smiled maliciously.
"The political officer I introduced to you a while ago, you said you were busy. And you asked the messenger to return the banner that girl from the logistics department gave you. So, is it that Wang Xinxin is the only one you like?"
He didn't respond, his mind was in a mess.
"I heard that there are quite a few people pursuing her, and the matchmaker has come to her house several times."
Hearing this, Chen Zhengnian knocked his knuckles on the table, interrupting him.
"The meeting is almost time."
Old Zhang tactfully stopped talking and said something before leaving.
"You fought the tough battles without blinking an eye, but why do you become a coward when it comes to love?"
"If it's really interesting, then go for it. Don't dither. In the end, you'll just end up giving it to others."
Chen Zhengnian sat in the chair, but Lao Zhang's words seemed to penetrate his mind from all directions.
So the next day, when Wang Xinxin just got home from get off work at the commune, she saw Chen Zhengnian waiting at the door.
The setting sun stretched Chen Zhengnian's shadow very long, and his military green uniform was ironed and straight.
He just stood there under the tree, looking at her gravely, with an indescribable solemnity in his eyes compared to when they met yesterday.
"I heard about Sister Hong's story."
"I'm not here to call for punishment."
His Adam's apple rolled: "Lao Zhang said that if I don't come, I will have to drink at your wedding."
Wang Xinxin looked up and met his eyes.
There were emotions surging in there that she couldn't understand.
"you……"
"Xinxin."
Chen Zhengnian took a step closer to Wang Xinxin: "I know I was too hesitant before."
"You've been thinking too much and are hesitant to act, but Lao Zhang is right. If you wait any longer, someone else will snatch you away."
"The stable job at the tractor station is great, but what I can give you is the confidence that no matter how far you go in the future, you will have someone to support you."
Wang Xinxin lowered her head, somewhat afraid to look at him.
His smiling voice came from above: "So, Comrade Wang Xinxin, are you willing to give me a chance and stop being a coward?"
After saying this, Chen Zhengnian was so nervous that he didn't dare to look at her.
Wang Xinxin didn't say anything. He opened his mouth and wanted to explain more, but suddenly he felt a soft touch on his face.
"Chen Zhengnian, you are really a coward."
