Why is Lu Huaiyan here?
Jiang Xiachu was a little surprised. She raised her eyes and met Lu Huaiyan's gaze, frowned slightly, then looked away and looked behind him. After making sure that there was no one else behind him, her face was full of suspicion.
What a coincidence! Did Lu Huaiyan also come to watch this movie?
Is there something wrong with a grown man going to watch this movie by himself?
Jiang Xiachu was full of doubts, but Lu Huaiyan smiled, walked to her side naturally, lowered his eyes to look at her, and asked: "Are you ready to go back?"
As he said that, Lu Huaiyan raised his eyes and looked outside. "It just so happens that I am also going back. Let's go together."
"Jiang Lin's house is in the other direction, not on the way there, so there's no need to trouble him." Before Jiang Xiachu could speak, Lu Huaiyan spoke again.
Jiang Xiachu: "...?"
How come Lu Huaiyan had already arranged everything for her before she said anything?
Jiang Lin was listening to him, his face stiffened for a moment, and then he said, "It's okay, I want to take Xia Chu home, I'm willing to go the other way."
Jiang Xiachu was confused again, and quickly waved his hand to refuse him: "No, I can go back by myself, I'm not a child anymore."
Although she and Jiang Lin talked a lot today and became more familiar with each other, it had not reached this point yet.
His home was in the opposite direction, so there was no need to send her there. He shouldn't cause trouble for no reason.
Jiang Lin knew what Jiang Xiachu meant, but he still insisted, "It's okay, no trouble. I'm worried about you walking alone. Human traffickers are rampant now. I'll just follow you from a distance, just as a walking exercise."
Jiang Lin had said so much that Jiang Xiachu had no reason to refuse and all his words were blocked.
She was speechless, looking at Jiang Lin's serious expression, and sighed silently.
Jiang Xiachu ignored what the two said and walked out of the cinema. He opened his car that he had locked on the side of the road and pushed it out.
Jiang Lin and Lu Huaiyan did not move, still standing at the door, their eyes fixed on Jiang Xiachu.
The movie had just ended and many people were heading out, so it was a bit crowded, but no one dared to crowd around the two men.
Both of them were over 1.8 meters tall and good-looking. From a distance, they attracted the attention of many passers-by. Many young girls couldn't help but look back to take a few more glances.
This is so cool!
It's not just the face, but more importantly the aura and temperament. She is very special in the crowd and can be seen at a glance, making people unable to help but look at her more.
Young and old love to watch it.
The two of them stood by and didn't move.
Jiang Lin's eyes were always on Jiang Xiachu. He watched her unlock the car and push the cart. The corners of his mouth raised, and there was a gentle and faint smile between his eyebrows.
He had liked Jiang Xiachu to begin with, and after spending so much time alone with her today, he liked her even more.
Even when Jiang Xiachu was pushing a bicycle, he couldn't take his eyes off her. He thought she was so adorable that his heart beat faster and faster.
Lu Huaiyan turned his head slightly and glanced at Jiang Lin, watching the scene quietly. His eyes sank and he remained silent.
But the two hands hanging at his sides slowly tightened without him noticing.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Lin spoke first. He turned to look at Lu Huaiyan and asked softly, "Do you still remember the time when Xia Chu came to the army to look for you in the winter one year ago?"
Lu Huaiyan frowned, turned his head to look at him, and those memories gradually surfaced.
Jiang Lin looked at his reaction and knew that he had remembered, so he continued, "That time Xia Chu came to the army to deliver something to you, and I happened to see her when I came out of the dormitory, so she asked me to call you."
Lu Huaiyan lowered his eyes and said nothing.
At that time, the weather was really cold. The snow had just stopped and wherever there was water, it all froze into ice.
He was a little surprised when he heard Jiang Xiachu coming to see him.
"When I saw Xia Chu that day, I felt so sorry for her. It was so cold, and a little girl came to the army to deliver something to you. Her hands were frozen red and purple."
"Even after all this, she was still afraid of delaying your business, so she stood outside waiting for you. She didn't dare to go up to look for you. She was such a skinny girl, I felt like she would be blown away by the wind, and she was still standing there in the cold wind."
Jiang Lin looked at Jiang Xiachu's figure, sighed deeply, and his heart became more determined.
At that time, he knew that Jiang Xiachu liked Lu Huaiyan.
But he still couldn't help but look at Jiang Xiachu a few more times. A strange feeling arose in his heart, which made him think of her from time to time and he especially wanted to protect her.
He had also heard some rumors and knew some things about the He family.
Jiang Xiachu's biological mother, Jiang Hongyan, brought her with her when she remarried. For some unknown reason, Jiang Hongyan seemed to dislike her daughter Jiang Xiachu and treated her very badly.
It was so bad that all the neighbors on the surrounding streets knew that Jiang Xiachu had suffered a lot.
Once he was on vacation, and after returning from the army, he happened to meet Jiang Xiachu and her mother.
The two seemed to have gone to the market to buy things and were about to go home after buying them.
As a result, no one knew what happened on the way, but Jiang Hongyan became very impatient with Jiang Xiachu. She kept cursing at him as they walked, and was very aggressive towards him all the way.
He was quite far away and couldn't hear clearly what Jiang Hongyan was complaining about.
But it can also be seen that it is definitely not a good thing.
Because Jiang Xiachu's face looked very ugly and aggrieved, he walked behind her, clutching the corner of his clothes helplessly.
Jiang Hongyan kept scolding, and occasionally she would raise her voice to say something. Every time, Jiang Xiachu was so scared that she dared not move. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she dared not cry.
Because whenever she shed tears, Jiang Hongyan would scold her loudly, "Cry, cry, cry, all you do is cry! I've raised you to this age, and I can't say a few words to you?"
These were the only words Jiang Lin could hear clearly.
Afterwards, Jiang Hongyan would glare at her, curse her a few words, and then leave her alone.
Jiang Xiachu didn't dare to talk back to his own mother. He could only stand there and watch Jiang Hongyan walk further and further away, feeling very aggrieved.
The neighbors around often saw this scene, so sometimes there would always be some kind-hearted aunties and grandmas who would secretly give Jiang Xiachu some delicious food.
The more Jiang Lin learned about Jiang Xiachu, the more he felt sorry for her and couldn't help but pay more attention to her.
I don’t know when it started, but his love for Jiang Xiachu suddenly changed and became different.
He began to look forward to meeting her and wanted to know her.
Every time he had a holiday, Jiang Lin would deliberately take a long detour and pass by the He family's door pretending to be casual, thinking that if Jiang Xiachu went out, he could still see her.
He was not a fool. Later he also noticed the strange feeling and knew that he had fallen in love with her.
