At this moment, Lin's mother thought for a moment and said, "Alright, let Xiaohe give it a try!"
Lin Jingshuo was somewhat puzzled by his mother's decision, but he still refused, "No need, sister-in-law, I can handle this."
Su He smiled, knowing that he was afraid of troubling her, but still insisted, "Big brother is a man, it's not suitable for him to step forward, let me do it, I have experience in this kind of thing."
Lin's mother nodded in agreement. "Xiao He is right. How could a grown man like you understand a young girl's thoughts? Xiao He used to work at the police station and must have resolved many disputes among the public."
Su He nodded in agreement.
Hearing her say that, Lin Jingshuo didn't insist anymore, but simply said, "Be careful. The people here are quite united. If you can't reason with her, come back."
Su He nodded in agreement.
...
In the afternoon, after asking for the location of Sun Zhaodi's house, she left the military base and headed towards the surrounding villages.
The island is actually quite large, with several villages. Sun Zhaodi's village is near the military base, otherwise Lin Jingshuo wouldn't have saved her on his way back to the base.
However, Su He did not go straight to the Sun family. Instead, she walked around and looked around, occasionally taking notes.
She only slowed down when she arrived at the Second Brigade, where the Sun family lived. She looked left and right, seemingly interested in everything.
Just then, a villager passing by saw her, a stranger, and asked curiously, "Girl, what are you doing?"
Su He smiled and explained, "I'm doing field research."
"Going out to collect folk songs?" The man seemed puzzled and turned to leave.
He muttered to himself, "Isn't the wind just blowing? How can you pick it?"
Su He just smiled and ignored it when she heard it.
After circling around the Second Brigade, they didn't see Sun Zhaodi, but they managed to get a child to tell them where she lived by using a piece of candy.
She went to see it too. The Sun family's house was very dilapidated, clearly indicating a poor family, even worse off than the Su family. However, no one was home at the moment; she heard that the Sun family had gone fishing with their family.
So Su He didn't stay long and strolled back.
Although she didn't find anything, she wasn't in a hurry, since they weren't in a rush to leave anyway.
The next morning, after Su He finished eating, she wanted to take a stroll again, but as soon as she stepped out of the guesthouse, she saw Sun Zhaodi waiting downstairs.
Seeing this, Su He raised an eyebrow and walked towards her.
"What brings you here? Is something the matter?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Zhaodi pursed her lips and looked at her, saying, "I heard you went to our village yesterday and asked about my family."
Su He nodded and didn't hide anything, "Yes, I happened to pass by when I was doing field research, so I took a look."
Sun Zhaodi's ears turned a little red when she heard this, clearly knowing that her family's situation was somewhat embarrassing.
He opened his mouth as if to say something, but then didn't say anything.
Su He wasn't curious; she happened to need to talk to her, so she asked, "Do you have time right now? Shall we chat?"
Sun Zhaodi glanced at her unexpectedly, then thought for a moment and nodded gently.
Seeing this, Su He led her to a more secluded place.
He stopped when she was out of sight, glanced at her, and said, "I won't keep you in suspense any longer. I suppose you already know that my older brother has a fiancée. She is very outstanding and a perfect match for my brother. He will not marry you."
Sun Zhaodi pursed her lips again, seemingly with great effort, until her lips turned white. Finally, she couldn't help but look up at her, her expression somewhat stubborn, and said, "But he touched me!"
