Chapter 35
Meng Xuan didn't need to think too much to guess that the clothes definitely belonged to Lu Chen, but didn't they have any intimate behavior? Then why were there Lu Chen's clothes in her room?
Could it be that these two people teamed up to deceive me?
When Meng Xuan thought of this, he felt sick all over, his mind was full of thoughts that his cabbages were really eaten by pigs.
He couldn't help but turn around and glare at Lu Chen fiercely.
Lu Chen had no doubt that Meng Xuan would attack him in the next second.
Fortunately, Meng Yinyin's voice rang out in time, and she nervously explained: "This dress is mine, I made it especially for you, brother!"
In this case, she certainly didn't dare to say that she made the dress.
No matter how stupid she was, she could see that her brother couldn't accept this fact. Fearing being scolded, she could only tell a little lie.
But to a certain extent, since Lu Chen didn't want the clothes, she was originally planning to give it to someone else, she just changed that person to her brother.
After hearing what Meng Yinyin said, Meng Xuan's anger subsided a little, but only a little.
He took another careful look at the clothes in his hands and realized that the stitching was in such terrible condition that it was barely wearable.
Looking at the craftsmanship, it really looks like Meng Yinyin made it herself.
As long as the clothes were not left in her room by other men, Meng Xuan would not be so angry.
What he feared was that when he and his parents were not around, Meng Yinyin would be bullied, or that he would lose his mind and do something bad.
As long as there are no problems, he won't worry.
After confirming that the clothes were made by Meng Yinyin herself and not some wild man's clothes, Meng Xuan said in a neutral tone, "It's just average. You need to learn more."
Meng Yinyin: “…….”
If she could beat her brother, she would have punched him directly!
In the end, Meng Yinyin was still angry and tried to take the clothes back with a frown, "If it doesn't look good, give it back to me!"
However, Meng Xuan raised his hand and easily lifted the clothes to a height that she couldn't reach.
"Be humble, little brat. I'm trying to urge you to improve. You won't let me tell you the truth, right?"
Meng Yinyin:!!!
So angry!
Seeing that the person was about to cry, Meng Xuan coughed lightly.
"Okay, it's getting late, it's time to take a shower and go to bed. I'm going to take a shower."
After saying that, he took the clothes and ran away.
In the end, Meng Yinyin could only stare at his figure, stamped her feet, and turned around to see Lu Chen standing beside her.
He pursed his lips, his eyes fixed on the piece of clothing that Meng Xuan had taken away, looking gloomy, not knowing what he was thinking.
As the sky darkened, Meng Yinyin was unsure whether she saw regret in Lu Chen's eyes.
Regret?
What did he regret? It couldn't be that he regretted not accepting the clothes at that time, right?
Although she was not very sure, she had to say that this guess made Meng Yinyin feel relieved.
Humph, her brother actually complained that the clothes she made were not good. Didn’t he see that there were still people who wanted them?
Moreover, does Lu Chen know what it means if he really accepts this dress? If he really accepts it, it means that their relationship will deteriorate!
It went from being a simple partnership to that kind of relationship...
As Meng Yinyin thought about it, she felt a little awkward for some reason.
She couldn't help but steal a glance at Lu Chen.
He was facing her sideways, the moonlight shining on his face, projecting his profile clearly, his straight nose, his sharp and smooth jawline, and even his long and thick eyelashes.
How can a grown man have such thick eyelashes?
Meng Yinyin muttered to herself, but couldn't help but look at Lu Chen a few more times. The more she looked, the more handsome he seemed to her.
Her heart suddenly started beating uncontrollably faster. Meng Yinyin blinked, forced herself to ignore the inexplicable nervousness, and quickly said something to Lu Chen.
"I'm going in too!"
After saying that, he fled from the yard, leaving Lu Chen to come to his senses. He turned to look towards Meng Yinyin, but he only saw a closed door.
Unable to see Meng Yinyin's expression, Lu Chen could only slowly retract his gaze, and then looked again at the house where Meng Xuan disappeared.
Meng Xuan quickly packed his clothes, took them out and walked towards the small bathroom. He seemed to be in a good mood and whistled along the way.
The bathing room was a simple little wooden hut. Fearing that his newly washed clothes would get wet, Meng Xuan hung his clean clothes directly on the door frame and then took a bath in it without distraction.
Listening to the singing in the bathroom, Lu Chen hesitated for a moment, but finally walked towards the kitchen, picked up the ladle, filled it with water, and walked out.
…
Meng Xuan took a longer bath than usual. After all, he was outside the army and had no time to rush. In addition, it was hot and a cool shower would be more comfortable, so he stayed in the bathroom for a while longer.
Meng Xuan thought it was getting late and would be skinned if he continued to rush, so he stopped, wiped off the water and prepared to pick up the clothes hanging on the wooden board to put on.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, he heard the sound of water splashing outside, followed by Lu Chen's apologetic voice.
"Comrade Meng, I'm sorry. When I was pouring water, I accidentally splashed it on your clothes."
What?
Before Meng Xuan could come to his senses, he heard the sound of Lu Chen coming from outside again.
"I got your clothes wet. I'll go get you a piece of my clothes. Don't worry, it's new and I've never worn it before."
After saying that, Meng Xuan noticed that the clothes hanging on the wooden board disappeared in an instant, and then there were the sounds of Lu Chen's footsteps leaving without any hesitation.
Meng Xuan: “……?”
He couldn't say a word the whole time, and Lu Chen just stuffed another piece of clothing into his body.
However, Meng Xuan was not angry, nor did he think too much about it, because the new clothes Lu Chen brought him were obviously much better than the one Meng Yinyin gave him. Both the workmanship and the material were incomparable to Meng Yinyin's rough craftsmanship.
He just felt a little embarrassed.
"Your clothes are new, it's not good for me to wear them, why don't I just wear the one I just wore, it will dry up in a while anyway in the hot weather."
However, in response to his actions, Lu Chen simply picked up the clothes that he had put into the washing basin and were soaked inside and out, and said to him.
"I have already washed your clothes."
Meng Xuan: “…”
Is this person a little too diligent?
However, the clothes were already wet and obviously could not be worn. In the end, Meng Xuan did not bother about it anymore. He just said thank you to Lu Chen and hurried into the house.
His steps into the house were no slower than Lu Shen's before, and were even faster.
Because from Lu Chen's strange behavior tonight, he seriously suspected that this guy was trying to take the opportunity to please him!
Otherwise, why would he be so kind and do the laundry for him? Wasn't it just to show off in front of him?
Meng Xuan was amazed at how thoughtful Lu Chen was, but at the same time he admired him for being so open-minded. In short, his mood was very complicated.
It was so complicated that I completely forgot about the dress.
And Lu Chen in the yard finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and his heart fell back into his stomach.
Looking down at the black cloth jacket in his hand, his mood was actually very complicated.
After all, he was the only one who knew that the so-called accidental wetting of Meng Xuan's clothes by pouring water was completely intentional on his part.
He knew that what he was doing was despicable, but he still didn't want anyone else to wear the clothes.
So let it be, as long as he doesn't say it, no one will know about his hidden possessiveness.
…
The next day, when Meng Yinyin woke up and found that her brother was not wearing the cloth jacket she gave him yesterday, she looked confused.
Later I found out that her brother's clothes got wet before he even put them on, and he just washed them directly, and then I understood.
Looking up at the coat hanging in the yard, Meng Yinyin frowned slightly, always feeling that something was not right.
Why did Lu Chen go to the bathroom to pour the water? He could obviously pour the water behind the kitchen.
But after thinking about it, she still couldn't think of any other reason for the sinking, so she finally gave up.
The matter was over for the time being. It was time to go to work in the morning. Lu Chen warmed up their breakfast in the pot and left.
When Meng Yinyin got up, she didn't see him at all. She only saw the warm porridge in the pot and the boiled eggs on the side of the pot.
Lu Chen also raised chickens at home. According to the regulation, two of the three chickens were laying eggs, so he could pick up two hot eggs every day.
However, he did not touch the two eggs himself and gave them all to Meng Yinyin and her brother.
Meng Yinyin felt somewhat guilty while eating the eggs. Thinking that she had already lived in Lu Chen for a few days, she felt that it was time to give him the money.
Otherwise, she would feel embarrassed to continue eating and living for free.
After breakfast, she decided to go to her brother to talk about giving money to Lu Chen and ask him how much would be appropriate.
However, before they could figure out what was going on, they heard some movement coming from Lu Dashan's house next door.
"...You guys wait here first, I'll go to the field and call them back."
The person spoke softly, but she could still hear clearly, and Meng Yinyin also recognized it as Lu Xiujuan's voice.
Lu Xiujuan is back?
Does it mean that Wang Chengwu has settled the matter?
