Chapter 62
Dou Zhengrong called Lu Chen at the place he had to pass by on his way to and from work.
Lu Chen was indeed surprised that he would appear here, so he went to the other side with Dou Zhengrong without any hesitation, because Dou Zhengrong must have something important to tell him.
After the two of them stood still, Dou Zhengrong first briefly inquired about Lu Chen's studies in the county town before he spoke.
Sure enough, Dou Zhengrong's first words stunned Lu Chen.
he asked Lu Chen.
"Do you know a male educated youth named Song Yue?"
Lu Chen's eyes changed and he said in a deep voice.
"know."
When he heard the name Song Yue, he couldn't help but think of some previous scenes, including the scene where Song Yue was obsessed with Meng Yinyin.
"Maybe he did something during the days I was away."
Although it was a question, Lu Chen's tone was very firm.
Judging from Lu Chen's expression, he should know what Song Yue felt for Meng Yinyin. Realizing this, Dou Zhengrong felt somewhat relieved, and then told Lu Chen what happened in the vegetable field that day.
When he heard that Meng Yinyin was almost taken advantage of by Song Yue, anger instantly filled Lu Chen's eyes and his hands hanging at his sides were clenched tightly, but fortunately Dou Zhengrong happened to be there.
If he wasn't there, he wouldn't even dare to guess what the consequences of that day would be!
After being extremely scared and panicked, Lu Chen suppressed the complicated thoughts in his mind, and then said thank you to Dou Zhengrong in a solemn voice.
"Brother Dou, I don't know how to thank you for this matter. If you need any help in the future, please let me know."
Jump into boiling water and walk through fire and water without hesitation.
This is the most significant promise Lu Chen can make.
Dou Zhengrong could naturally hear the seriousness in Lu Chen's words. He didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but thinking that what Lu Chen needed was peace of mind, he nodded.
"It's okay, it's just a simple task, I would help anyone."
It would have been fine if Lu Chen didn't know about this. Now that he knows about it, while he is filled with anger at Song Yue's actions, he can't help but feel sorry for Meng Yinyin.
How distressed she must have felt when she faced Song Yue at that time.
But it had been a day since he came back, and she hadn't even told him about this.
Maybe I don't want to make him worry, or I just don't want to tell him.
Lu Chen pursed his lips, his mind filled with complicated thoughts.
When going to work, Lu Chen's gaze coldly swept towards the Youth League and accurately captured Song Yue's figure.
Song Yue, who was waiting here for the captain to give today's encouragement, suddenly felt a chill on his back. He suspected that he had sensed it wrong, but he still turned around carefully and looked around. Then he saw Lu Chen standing not far away, looking at him expressionlessly.
His eyes were as cold as a pond, and Song Yue even felt a murderous intent!
His heart skipped a beat and he turned around immediately. Although his appearance remained unchanged, his heartbeat was gradually speeding up.
Why was Lu Chen looking at me like that? Did he already know what I had done to Meng Yinyin some time ago?
Song Yue was not stupid, and after some thought he quickly confirmed this guess.
Although he had been mentally prepared for such a scene, his eyes still turned fierce when he thought that Meng Yinyin actually told Lu Chen about this.
Well, since she is really so shameless, he won’t be polite either!
Originally, Song Yue thought that he had not accomplished anything after all, and if Meng Yinyin never mentioned this matter again, he would let go of everything with her.
But if she still cares about it and insists on using this matter to deal with him, then he will not give in!
For the entire morning, because Lu Chen and Song Yue worked in different places, the two had no chance to meet each other, let alone talk.
But Lu Chen was holding his breath in his heart, which made him particularly silent when working in the morning. Although he used to be a man of few words, people around him felt that Lu Chen seemed to be threshing the grain with extra strength and speed today. Why did they inexplicably feel like the grain was his enemy?
But think about it, Lu Chen doesn't seem to have any enemies. He is so strong probably because he is young and has no place to use his strength!
It seems that young guys like Lu Chen are the ones who should do the job.
So everyone happily watched Lu working dully, without knowing that he was really using the opportunity of working to vent his anger.
It was not until he returned home at noon that Lu Chen gradually adjusted his mood.
Since Meng Yinyin chose not to tell him, he decided to pretend that he didn't know for the time being. However, the price Song Yue would have to pay would definitely not be small.
After adjusting his mood, Lu Chen returned home. At this moment, Meng Yinyin had already very graciously prepared a meal for him. Although the dish was just simple stir-fried vegetables, it was at least edible and not as difficult to describe as the braised potatoes yesterday.
Meng Yinyin also thought it through. She thought that her cooking skills were just like this and she wouldn’t make much progress no matter how much she studied. So she didn’t plan to torture herself anymore!
Besides, what was her original intention in cooking? Wasn't it to make Lu Chen feel cared for and let him mend his ways and start a new life? So the taste is actually not important. What is important is the thought and friendship!
So Meng Yinyin decisively gave up the taste and pursued cooking the rice, and finally finished the rice before Lu Chen got off work.
Although Lu Chen already knew that Meng Yinyin was planning to cook for him, he was still moved when he saw the scene in front of him.
Meng Yinyin was wearing a small apron and holding a dish in her hands. She noticed him coming back and raised her head to look at Lu Chen.
"You're back?"
The scene before him was almost identical to the home and lover of his dreams.
At this moment, the anger that had been suppressed in Lu Chen's heart for the entire morning also dissipated a little.
"Yeah, I'm back."
While speaking, Lu Chen's eyes involuntarily looked towards the table. He saw three dishes on the table, one was stir-fried vegetables, one was cold cucumber, one was sugar-mixed tomatoes, and then there were two bowls of porridge. These were very light and simple dishes, and could even be said to have no technical content at all. However, Lu Chen felt that they were more appealing than the banquets in state-owned hotels.
Meng Yinyin noticed his gaze. Although she realized that her cooking skills were poor, she still felt a little ashamed.
Especially since Lu Chen was staring at those three shabby dishes, as if he wanted to stare a flower out of them, she was so embarrassed!
"Hey, stop looking at me. Aren't you hungry? Eat quickly. I'm hungry!"
Meng Yinyin's voice suddenly rang out, and it was quite loud, but it successfully brought Lu Chen back to his senses.
As if realizing that Meng Yinyin was a little embarrassed, Lu Chen obediently sat down and started eating.
Meng Yinyin also sat down, but while eating, she couldn't help but stare at Lu Chen. She started to get nervous when she saw him pick up a dish with his chopsticks.
Although she didn't know why she was so nervous, it was obvious that her cooking skills were not as good as Lu Chen's.
But she just wanted to know how he felt after eating it, but she was too embarrassed to ask. After all, it was a great honor for her to cook for him!
Meng Yinyin was complaining in her heart, but her eyes were honestly full of curiosity. She blinked as if asking - Is it delicious? Is it delicious? How does it taste?
Lu Chen was always quick to react, so he understood it immediately and told her about it right away.
“It’s delicious.”
It wasn't enough to finish it, he added in a serious tone.
“It’s the best dish I’ve ever eaten.”
His expression seemed very sincere, but Meng Yinyin knew that her food would never live up to such praise, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise a little.
"Ahem, since it tastes good, eat more."
Meng Yinyin suppressed the twitch of her lips and spoke to Lu Chen in a calm manner.
"You know, I actually learned to cook just for you."
She spoke out the words that she had already prepared in her mind while staring at Lu Chen's reaction.
However, she found that Lu Chen's expression didn't seem to have changed much. The only change was that his eyes became a little softer?
Meng Yinyin wasn't sure, but when she thought about it, it seemed that Lu Chen was just like that, so it wasn't too strange that he didn't react much.
After thinking about it, Meng Yinyin felt that everything was normal and continued to recite her lines.
"I cook for you, are you happy? Are you happy?"
Lu Chen nodded vigorously, but his eyes were reluctant to leave Meng Yinyin for even a second.
Meng Yinyin gradually became shy when she saw his eyes. She always felt that Lu Chen's eyes seemed to carry a cluster of flames, and her face began to get hot when he looked at her.
"Well, since you feel happy with this kind of life, then, let's live like this from now on. You work hard and I'll wait for you at home. Then you will find that this world is still beautiful and our life is still happy. Live every day with a positive attitude!"
These last words sounded more and more like educational speeches.
Lu Chen always felt that something was strange. He even felt that the look in Meng Yinyin's eyes seemed to say "You must listen carefully and don't do anything wrong."
But what could he do wrong?
Lu Chen suspected that he was overthinking, and then continued to listen carefully to Meng Yinyin's "education".
In the end, Meng Yinyin had said almost all the words she had prepared, and she stopped only when her saliva was almost dried up.
After taking a sip of porridge, she stared at Lu Chen intently and asked with a serious face.
"Did you hear everything I said?"
She has wasted so much effort and words, if he still doesn't repent and continues to become evil, then she will really cry to death!
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen naturally nodded vigorously.
He listened carefully to every word Meng Yinyin said just now. Although he never understood the meaning of her words, he would listen carefully and remember everything she said.
At this point, Meng Yinyin felt that her mission should have been mostly completed, and the dark side of Lu Chen's character should have been partially corrected.
Just when she breathed a sigh of relief, she suddenly saw Lu Chen in front of her moving his lips, with an expression as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Meng Yinyin frowned, wondering if her little plan had been discovered, and suddenly felt a little nervous.
But fortunately, the next second, Lu Chen spoke, and the topic was not what Meng Yinyin was talking about before, but another one, which was.
"Yinyin, has Song Yue bothered you during the days I was away?"
He spoke in a light tone, as if he was worried that Meng Yinyin would be frightened by this disgusting name, but it was clear from his expression that he was very worried.
Meng Yinyin was stunned and asked subconsciously: "How do you know?!"
This self-confessional statement was an indirect admission that Song Yue had caused her trouble.
Lu Chen's eyes darkened instantly, and he suppressed the anger in his heart before continuing to speak.
"I heard it from someone. Don't worry, I will make Song Yue pay the price."
Did he hear it from someone? Who told him? At that time, only a few of them knew about it. She didn't tell anyone, and Yu Xiaoyu also told him not to tell Lu Chen about it. It was even more impossible for Song Yue to tell him on his own initiative.
Therefore, the only person who could have told him this could be Dou Zhengrong!
How come they are in touch again!
Meng Yinyin felt as if her eyes went dark. She had just spent so much effort to change a part of the plot, but now Lu Chen was in contact with Dou Zhengrong again. Was he going to the Dou family again and fall in love with Lin Xiuzhi next?
As if to verify Meng Yinyin's guess, Lu Chen continued to speak the next second.
"I may be back late this afternoon. I was in a hurry this morning and didn't have time to thank Brother Dou properly. I'll go to his house this afternoon to give him some gifts..."
Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Meng Yinyin interrupted him without even thinking.
"Don't go!"
Lu Chen was stunned, as if he had not expected Meng Yinyin to refuse.
"I, I mean, I'll go, I'll just go!"
