"Are you okay?" Tong Xiuxiu hurriedly pulled someone.
Chen Nongmo held her hand and stood up straight, subconsciously looking towards the school gate.
There was still some distance between them, so my second brother probably couldn’t hear their conversation.
But when she spoke again, she subconsciously lowered her voice: "How did you think of pursuing my second brother?"
Hearing this, although Tong Xiuxiu felt a little embarrassed, she still tried to express her true thoughts: "I have pursued him before, you know that, right?"
"Yeah, I know."
This answer was too straightforward. Tong Xiuxiu pursed her lips in embarrassment before continuing: "I haven't thought about your second brother for a long time. Really, I thought I had forgotten him, but... But the moment I saw him yesterday, I knew it was not possible."
At this point, she paused, looked up at the tall green figure at the school gate, and then said in a softer tone: "We meet again after so many years, and he and I are still the same person. Isn't that great?"
Of course, but that's not what Chen Nongmo wants to ask: "Don't you want your second brother to chase you?"
Tong Xiuxiu lowered her eyes. Of course she wanted to, but. "Your second brother doesn't like me, so why is he chasing me?"
Chen Nongmo. Chen Nongmo was just wondering whether he should subtly remind the silly girl that his second brother had a crush on her, when he felt his arm tighten.
She looked up and found that the two were almost at the school gate.
It was inappropriate to say anything more at this moment, so Chen Nongmo simply kept silent and communicated with the gatekeeper first to allow his second brother to enter the school.
"Second brother, when Xiuxiu and I came to pick you up just now, that Wang Caihua came and said some misleading words again." On the way to the cafeteria, Chen Nongmo immediately started to complain and repeated Wang Caihua's disgusting words.
Cao Liu frowned, the method was indeed a bit despicable.
But it is not difficult to see that he first pursued it through words and poetry, and then changed his strategy to mislead everyone after finding it was useless.
This guy named Wang Caihua is just a coward.
Only the kind of person who can hide his thoughts and then hit the target with one strike is a powerful character.
But, in the current environment, if Wang Caihua's disgusting methods are used well, they can indeed have unexpected effects.
Thinking of this, Cao Liu looked at the girl who was trying to remain normal but still felt very uncomfortable because of his arrival, curled the corners of his mouth and comforted her: "Don't worry, I'll go talk to him after dinner."
Tong Xiuxiu, who had just said she was ambitious to pursue someone, had now become a quail. She didn't dare to look up at the person after hearing the words. She stammered for a long time before humming out two words: "Thank you."
Chen Nongmo. That’s it?
= The school cafeteria is not very big.
Fortunately, many students who live in the dormitory like to eat in the dormitory after getting their meals.
So even though it was crowded during meal time, we could still find a seat.
Because I had to pick someone up at the door, I was delayed.
When Chen Nongmo and the other two arrived at the cafeteria, most people had almost finished eating, and there were only a few people left queuing at the food window.
Without the obstruction of the crowd, the three of them became the focus of almost everyone.
In the past, no matter where Chen Nongmo and Tong Xiuxiu went, they would be looked at twice by many people.
After all, who doesn't like to look at beautiful women? When the two of them stand together, they are doubly beautiful.
But this time, everyone focused more on Cao Liu.
There's nothing you can do about it. This guy is too imposing in terms of both height and figure.
Plus the military uniform he was wearing had four pockets.
All of them are eye-catching.
Many people present knew Chen Nongmo, and they also knew that she admitted on the first day of school that she was married, and it was a military marriage.
Now seeing an officer walking with her, people who don't know the situation will inevitably be curious whether this man is Chen Nongmo's military husband.
Gao Hong was also curious. She had a good relationship with Chen Nongmo. She felt a little unhappy when she heard all kinds of speculations from others.
She also knew that Wang Caihua was harassing Tong Xiuxiu, so instead of giving someone the opportunity to make up stories, she decided to just ask directly.
Thinking of this, she stretched out her hand and called out, "Yuyu, here."
Chen Nongmo looked in the direction of the voice and not only saw the empty seat next to Gao Hong, but also saw Wang Caihua, who was sitting behind her with a gloomy look in his eyes.
This is such a coincidence: "Second brother, the one wearing glasses behind the female classmate who called me just now is Wang Caihua."
Hearing this, Cao Liu nodded, but did not look over there intentionally. Instead, he protected the two of them and went to the empty seat behind them.
= There are exactly three empty seats.
There is one next to Gao Hong and two opposite her.
Chen Nongmo sat down next to Gao Hong without hesitation, leaving two empty seats for his second brother and Xiuxiu.
Seeing this, Gao Hong immediately knew that this man should not be Yu Yu's husband.
She didn't want to speculate, so when they started eating, she asked, "Yu Yu, who is this soldier?"
"My second brother."
The two people's voices were not small, and people at the surrounding tables all heard them.
Gao Hong didn't expect this answer. Just as she was about to laugh and joke that the two looked nothing alike, she heard Chen Nongmo say calmly, "Oh, he's still Xiuxiu's boyfriend."
".Ahem" Tong Xiuxiu, who had never expected to hear this sentence, almost spit it out. Fortunately, at the critical moment, she turned her head and did not cough towards the table.
Cao Liu, on the other hand, didn't even bat an eyelid at what his sister suddenly said.
He just took out a handkerchief from his pocket, handed it to the girl beside him whose face was red from coughing, and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
If it's really the one for you, he will raise his hand to help smooth your back.
But this is not the right time.
Tong Xiuxiu acted faster than she thought. By the time she reacted, she had already reached out to take the handkerchief and covered her mouth with it.
It was at this moment that she smelled the dry, refreshing, yet unfamiliar scent of soap, and she belatedly realized what she had done.
He didn't know whether to return the handkerchief in his hand or not, and his whole body was stiff.
Of course, she definitely didn't want to pay it back.
This is... this is the first time Cao Liu gave her something.
But, isn't it a bit too shameless to pretend to be stupid and stay?
Thinking of this, Tong Xiuxiu, who had stopped coughing, clenched her handkerchief. While stealing glances at people, she couldn't help feeling guilty about the despicable thoughts that suddenly arose in her mind.
Chen Nongmo, who was watching anxiously from the side, reminded: "Xiu Xiu, where is your handkerchief?"
Hearing this, Tong Xiuxiu looked up, and when she met Yu Yu's meaningful gaze, she thought of the ambitious ambitions she had just made.
So she gritted her teeth and took out a handkerchief with small floral patterns from her pocket and handed it over: "I...your handkerchief was soiled by me, do you want to use mine first?"
Cao Liu looked at the pink handkerchief and the trembling white hand. His eyes softened and he stretched out his big hand like a palm leaf fan to take it: "Okay."
Across from her, Gao Hong, who was watching this scene with bated breath, suddenly felt sweet inside for some reason. She thought the two were really together, and she laughed and teased, "You two have such a good relationship, but Xiuxiu is too shy. We are progressive young people in the new society, so we should be a little bolder."
Hearing this, Tong Xiuxiu's face turned even redder, and she didn't know how to respond.
Cao Liu, on the other hand, put the handkerchief into his pocket and said with a smile, "Xiu Xiucai and I have only been together for a short time, and she is shy."
Gao Hong chuckled: "No wonder, then you should come here more often, and you will feel more comfortable everywhere."
Hearing this, Cao Liu turned his head to look at the girl who wanted to bury her face in the bowl, and a smile flashed across his eyes: "I am usually busy, and she is the one who tolerates me. She took the time to come here today because she heard that a male classmate was harassing her."
When he said this, he did not deliberately raise his voice, and his tone was very calm, but it still made people around him feel their scalps tingle.
Especially Wang Caihua, who was sitting in the back row, felt very uncomfortable.
He didn't understand. It was obvious that the soldier opposite him never even looked at him from beginning to end, nor did he say any fierce words.
But at that moment just now, he felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast, and the hairs on his back stood up.
Wang Caihua was extremely sure that the other party was talking to him.
He was warning and deterring.
Use the most ordinary words.
But miraculously, the other party did it.
At least at this moment, Wang Caihua didn't dare to leave.
The soldier's intimidation was so great that he was really afraid that he would be knocked down by the other party's punch as soon as he stood up.
Besides...if the matter gets out of hand, he won't be in the right.
What made Wang Caihua even more ashamed and angry was that the other party clearly looked down on him and refused to even glance at him.
But no matter how angry and unwilling he was, he didn't dare to show it.
I could only try my best to ignore the vague contemptuous looks from those around me, sitting there stiffly and gritting my teeth secretly.
Gao Hong laughed: "Comrade Soldier, you are right, but I think those shameless people will not dare to do that in the future. After all, destroying a military marriage will result in imprisonment."
Then, she added, "It's not easy to get into university, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, several people around who knew what Wang Caihua was thinking burst out laughing.
Chen Nongmo even gave Gao Hong a thumbs up.
Although this meeting was different from what she expected, the effect was good. Wait until after dinner.
Chen Nongmo, who didn't want to be a light bulb, took Gao Hong's arm and threw Tong Xiuxiu directly to his second brother.
Cao Liu was not surprised by his sister's behavior.
He reached out and took the lunch box from the girl next to him: "This is my first time here. Are you free? Can you take me around the campus?"
Tong Xiuxiu: "All right."
After getting a response, Cao Liu curled his lips, put the lunch box into the bag and carried it, then led everyone out.
But when he turned around, his indifferent gaze glanced at Wang Caihua, who was fidgeting, for the first time.
Then, without saying anything, he protected the beautiful girl in a domineering manner and left without looking back.
The classmate who had been sitting next to Wang Caihua and thought that he just liked Tong Xiuxiu advised: "That soldier must have seen blood on his hands. The look in his eyes just now was too scary. Caihua, he has a partner. Don't do anything stupid. If I report you, the least you will get is a demerit."
Of course Wang Caihua knew that the look was scary. When he first came into contact with it, he thought he was a dead person.
But, he was unwilling to give up the wealth and beauty that were about to be in his hands.
He needs to think about it carefully.
At this moment, Wang Caihua would never have imagined that he would be called in for a talk so soon.
= On the other side, Tong Xiuxiu took Cao Liu for a stroll on campus.
The stories and features of various parts of the school will be explained in a slow and gentle voice.
About half an hour later, the two came to a ginkgo forest.
In winter, most leaves have fallen, but there is still some snow on the branches, which is quite beautiful.
According to senior students, the ginkgo forest is most beautiful in autumn every year, and many students or campus lovers love to come here.
Tong Xiuxiu brought people here intentionally.
Along the way, she kept introducing the various sceneries of the campus, but in fact she was also constantly building it in her heart.
It was not until he reached the ginkgo grove that he stopped and looked up at people.
This was the first time Tong Xiuxiu looked directly at Cao Liu after their reunion.
Although she was still nervous, she didn't know how long good luck would be on her side.
So, she has to seize the opportunity and fight for it bravely.
She thought that this joy would bear fruit in eight years.
Thinking of this, Tong Xiuxiu took a deep breath, squeezed the handkerchief hidden in her pocket, and then said with gritted teeth: "Cao Caoliu, I plan to pursue you!"
Cao Liu raised his eyebrows: "Oh? How are you going to chase her?"
Tong Xiuxiu was totally stunned to hear this. After a while, she said honestly: "I will buy you delicious food, clothes and write letters to you."
"You don't have to write a letter." Hearing this, Tong Xiuxiu's breathing stagnated and her face turned pale. Thinking she was rejected again, she pursed her lips, held back her sore nose, and tried to find words to argue in her chaotic mind. Then she heard the man laugh again: "You don't have to write a letter. Just come to the army to see me."
After realizing what the man said, Tong Xiuxiu, with red eyes, looked up at the man: "You and me."
Cao Liu didn't expect to make her cry. He bent down, raised his big hand like a palm leaf fan, and gently stroked her red eyelids with the tip of his thumb. He smiled gently and said, "Come to the army. I'll wait for you to chase me."
