After coming out of the dean's office, Zhou Yan quickly calmed down after being blown by the wind.
The dean's words just now were not meant to be partial. In the past, when there were awards, Wen Rugui never fought for them and let everyone choose first.
With his efforts and contributions, he could have been chosen first, but he always let everyone else.
Once his mother was sick and hospitalized, he even gave him two bottles of maltose.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yan's anger disappeared. It's
just that he has already walked to the door of his office, and if he doesn't go in and ask for clarification, he will definitely not be able to sleep tonight.
Wen Rugui saw Zhou Yan coming in, and said in a light voice: "You are here."
Zhou Yan snorted: "It seems that you know why I am here?"
Wen Rugui said "hmm", stood up and took out a bottle of malted milk from the cabinet and said: "This is to compensate you."
Zhou Yan's eyes swept over the malted milk, and he was more and more confused: "If you want 'Dacron', why didn't you tell me that day?"
Wen Rugui raised his eyebrows and glanced at him: "Will you give it to me if I tell you?"
Of course not! ! ! !
Stab your brother in the back for the sake of your partner!
Don't mention brotherhood to him just to get a wife!
Wen Rugui had an expression that said, "I knew it would be like this." "Take the malted milk, I have a use for the 'Dacron.'"
Zhou Yan looked at him suspiciously, "Rugui, you know our work is special, and it's not easy to find a partner. If you want to use it yourself, can you give it to me this time?"
Their salary is much higher than that of ordinary people, but their work is also much busier than that of ordinary people. They spend most of their time in the base. Sometimes when they are doing experiments, it is common to have no news for more than ten days.
This also means that they cannot always be with their partners or wives. He had been on blind dates many times before but failed, and a big reason was because of this, definitely not because he was ugly.
Now that he finally has a partner, he can't always be with him, so he wants to buy something to coax him, but Wen Rugui is the problem.
Wen Rugui shook his head: "No."
Zhou Yan gritted his teeth: "You don't have a partner, what do you want 'Dacron' for?"
Wen Rugui's eyelashes trembled slightly: "Can't I give 'Dacron' to someone I don't have a partner?"
Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment: "It's not that I can't, do you want to give this 'Dacron' to your grandfather?"
Wen Rugui didn't say anything.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Yan thought he guessed right.
Grandpa Wen is a poor old man. He lost his wife in middle age and his son in old age. Now he only has a grandson like Wen Rugui, and this grandson can't be with him all the time.
It's right to give "Dacron" to the old man, at least it can make him feel the filial piety of his grandson.
Thinking of this, he looked at him with sympathy and gentle eyes: "Okay, I'll give it to you this time, and you don't need the malt extract. You can take it back for the old man."
Wen Rugui raised his head and met his "affectionate and passionate" eyes. He couldn't help shivering: "You..."
Zhou Yan waved his hand to interrupt him: "You don't have to say anything, just leave it like this."
After speaking, he walked out with his chest puffed out, feeling that he was bathed in the light of kindness.
Wen Rugu:? ?
At this time, the old man in the military compound sneezed.
He looked at the two chicks in the chicken coop, his tone was full of resentment: "Rugui's unfilial grandson, the more I think about it, the more I feel that he did it on purpose. He must be taking revenge on me for eating the pickled fish that day!"
Uncle Zong defended Wen Rugui palely: "Rugui is not that kind of person. He has always been very filial to you, Commander."
Old Master Wen snorted: "You don't have to say good things for him, I think he did it on purpose! Nencao's cooking skills are so good, the braised Xiaowu must be delicious."
Uncle Zong: "..."
I always feel that why Xiaowu would die with his eyes open?
Grandpa Wen threw the rotten leaves to the two chicks, muttering: "Xiaoqi and Xiaoba, eat more and grow up quickly. I will take you to see the young grass later."
Uncle Zong: "..."
Poor Xiaoqi and Xiaoba, they are not even as big as a palm, but the commander is thinking about them.
**
After two o'clock, the state-owned hotel stopped serving lunch.
Master Meng made a small pot of mung bean soup and went back to rest. He would not come back until the evening.
As soon as Master Meng left, Tan Xiaoyan glared at Tong Xuelu and followed him.
Tong Xuelu and Guo Weiping were the only two people left in the hotel.
Tong Xuelu was a little worried about Tong Mianmian and wanted to go back to see how she was doing.
But firstly, it was her first day at work today, and it would not be good for her to be absent from work like this, and Guo Weiping could not be left alone in the hotel.
Secondly, if she ran back like this, it would seem that she was very worried about the Wei family.
In the short term, Tong Mianmian still had to ask the other party to help take care of things, and it would not be good if she angered the other party.
After thinking about it, she gave up the idea of going back.
The state-owned hotel was quiet, with only the sound of cutting vegetables coming from the kitchen from time to time.
Tong Xulu supported her chin with her hand and was in a daze.
The job in the state-owned hotel was indeed easy, and the food was better than in the factory, but it was too leisurely.
There were still three hours before dinner, and she couldn't just sit there and do nothing during this time, right?
So she began to think about her future.
Before the reform and opening up, if nothing unexpected happened, she would have stayed in the state-owned hotel. With so much free time every day, she had to find something to do.
Soon she made a decision. She planned to pick up her studies again before the college entrance examination was resumed.
This body only went to junior high school, but when the college entrance examination was resumed in 1977, the academic requirements for candidates were not strict. As long as they had a junior high school education or above, they could sign up to participate.
If she wanted to go to college, she had to seize the first two college entrance examinations. Otherwise, if she wanted to participate in the future, she would have to go back to school to study in high school and follow the steps.
No matter what time it is, education is very important. Since she can't go back, she must get a diploma here.
Not to mention that college students in the 1970s were very popular.
But she didn't have junior high and high school books on hand, so she had to think about where to get a set.
Suddenly, Wen Rugui's face appeared in her mind, and her eyes lit up.
Wen Rugui is a researcher and must have a high level of education. He should have hundreds of years of junior high and high school books. I don't know if he has lent them to others.
Thinking of this, she stood up and called to Guo Weiping: "Xiao Guo, I'm going to make a phone call and will be back soon. Please look after the hotel."
Guo Weiping ran out of the kitchen, holding a shining kitchen knife in his hand, and smiled shyly: "Sister Xuelu, then you go, I'll just look after the hotel."
Tong Xuelu thought Guo Weiping was a good kid, thanked him and turned around and walked out of the state-owned hotel.
**
The post office is not far from the state-owned hotel, and it only takes fifteen minutes to walk there.
She called and the same cold female voice answered: "Research Center, who are you looking for?"
"Hello, I'm looking for Comrade Wen."
The other party was stunned for a moment before saying: "Wait, I'll call you now."
Tong Xuelu quickly stopped her: "Then I'll call back in five minutes."
The last call cost her 70 cents, which could buy a pound of eggs. She was really hurt.
After hanging up the phone, An Yuemei's face flushed with excitement.
She recognized the voice, which was the same as the last time she looked for Researcher Wen!
But she didn't know what the other party's relationship with Researcher Wen was?
She stood up and was about to go to the office to inform Wen Rugui, when Wen Rugui's figure flashed past the end of the corridor.
She hurriedly chased after him: "Researcher Wen, wait a minute!"
Wen Rugui stopped when he heard the shout.
An Yuemei ran over, panting, "Researcher Wen, there's a phone call for you."
After that, she stared at Wen Rugui's face and added, "It's the woman from last time."
Wen Rugui's heart moved, and his face was expressionless and he said, "I'll go right away." As he
said that, he walked towards the reception room with his long legs.
An Yuemei didn't expect him to walk so quickly, so she hurried to follow him.
But Wen Rugui was tall and had long legs, so she had to jog to catch up with his pace. I don't know if it was her illusion, but Researcher Wen seemed to be walking faster and faster, and she couldn't catch up with him even at a jog at the end!
Wen Rugui walked to the phone and saw that the call was hung up. He frowned
immediately: "What's going on?" An Yuemei caught up with him and looked him in the eye. Her heart trembled: "The female comrade said she would call back in five minutes."
Wen Rugui's tense face relaxed when he heard this.
Seeing that he cared so much about the call, An Yuemei became more and more curious. Her heart seemed to be crawling with ants and it was itchy.
But the two were unfamiliar, and Wen Rugui looked so serious that she didn't dare to ask.
Every minute, Wen Rugui looked at his watch.
Every time she looked at her watch, An Yuemei's heart trembled.
Fortunately, after a few minutes, the phone finally rang, and Wen Rugui and An Yuemei both breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Rugui picked up the phone as if he was afraid someone would snatch it away: "I'm Wen Rugui."
Tong Xuelu: "Hello, Comrade Wen, I'm Tong Xuelu."
"Hello, why are you calling?"
"Comrade Wen, do you have any junior high and high school books at home?"
"Do you want to borrow them?"
Tong Xuelu: "Yes, I want to borrow them. The ancients said that learning has no end. Although I can't take the college entrance examination now, I think it's useful to learn more knowledge."
Wen Rugui: "My books are still there. When you need them, I'll ask... I'll send them to you then."
He originally wanted to say that he would ask his uncle to send them, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly had an idea and said that he would send them himself.
After he finished speaking, he felt that An Yuemei's gaze on him became even hotter. His ears turned red and he turned away.
Tong Xuelu: "I can come anytime. Just send it when you are free."
Wen Rugui thought for a moment and said, "Then I will send it to you after I go back, but it may be next month."
He has taken three days off this month and it is not easy to take another leave now.
Tong Xuelu: "It's okay. I am not in a hurry. Thank you very much, Comrade Wen. I will not bother you then."
Wen Rugui: "No..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a "beep" sound from the other end of the phone.
"..."
Wen Rugui was stunned for a moment while holding the phone before hanging up.
An Yuemei saw him turn around and quickly lowered her head to pretend to do something.
As soon as Wen Rugui walked away, she rushed to the office next door with the enamel pot.
"Breaking news, that woman called Researcher Wen again!"
"Is it true? Could Researcher Wen really have a girlfriend?"
An Yuemei shook her head: "It doesn't seem like it. He sounded quite polite. When you talk to your girlfriend, do you call each other comrade?"
Several people in the office thought about it and shook their heads: "No, maybe when you first get to know each other, but once you have established a relationship, you will definitely not call each other comrade."
So, that person is not Researcher Wen's girlfriend? After
several people discussed it, they still couldn't come to a conclusion.
Tong Xulu hung up the phone, and
then she heard the postal employee say: "Three cents." She felt a pang of pain again. Five eggs were gone just by saying a few words. It was really expensive!
After giving her the money, she did not dare to stay and hurried back to the state-owned hotel.
Guo Weiping was surprised to see her come back so soon: "Sister Xuelu, why are you back so soon? I thought you would be like Sister Xiaoyan and come back at four or five o'clock."
Tong Xulu smiled and said, "I live far away, and it's not very convenient to go back and forth." In fact,
she didn't want to lose this job.
Tan Xiaoyan has a backstage, and Master Meng is a veteran, and he must have his own connections. If they are caught, someone will protect them.
But she can't, this job is still very important to her at the moment.
Guo Weiping responded, and then shrank back to continue cutting radishes.
Tong Xulu sat in the lobby and took a nap.
At four or five o'clock, Tan Xiaoyan, Master Meng and others came back one after another.
The state-owned hotel began to get busy again, and they had dinner at five o'clock.
After dinner, people who were off work came one after another, and soon the tables and chairs of the state-owned hotel were occupied again.
Although everyone has no money these days, the state-owned hotel is still not short of guests.
Tong Xuelu had observed that those who came to the state-owned hotel to eat were generally dressed better, and many of them had briefcases under their arms, and they looked like they worked in offices.
Those with families rarely came to the state-owned hotel, after all, there were too many people, and a meal would cost a lot of money.
After seven o'clock, the state-owned hotel closed on time.
Master Meng distributed the remaining uncooked vegetables to everyone, and Tong Xuelu also got a portion.
Tan Xiaoyan looked at the vegetables in Tong Xuelu's hand, then looked at her own, and said dissatisfiedly: "She is new here, why does she get more vegetables than me?"
Master Meng snorted through his nose: "I am happy with it!"
"..."
She was so angry, so angry!
Tan Xiaoyan was so angry that her face turned red, and she stared at Tong Xuelu fiercely.
Tong Xuelu was too lazy to pay attention to her. After thanking Master Meng, she took the vegetables and went back.
When she got home, it was already dark.
Tong Jiaxin saw her coming back and shouted happily, "Great, we can finally have dinner!"
Tong Mianmian ran over with her short legs, hugged Tong Xuelu's legs and looked up and said, "Sister, why did you come back just now? I was so worried!"
The little girl looked at her with her big watery eyes, and her childish voice was like candy, which made people's hearts melt.
Tong Xuelu squatted down and looked her up and down: "Sister has gone to work, did Mianmian have fun at Grandma Shen's house today?"
Tong Mianmian nodded like a chick: "Happy! Grandpa Wei made a lot of delicious food for us, and Sister Zhuzhu also taught me to count."
"Then did Mianmian learn it?"
Tong Xuelu saw that she had no wounds on her body and her eyes were not red and swollen, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
The little girl's head was heavier: "I have learned it, sister will count for you, 1, 2, 3, 6, 5..."
"Hahaha... Stupid Mianmian, you counted wrong!"
Tong Jiaxin burst into laughter on the side.
Tong Mianmian's face flushed red: "Mianmian is not stupid!"
Before Tong Xuelu could speak, Tong Jiaming stopped Tong Jiaxin: "You apologize to Mianmian, or you will sleep alone today!"
The last sentence was very lethal, and Tong Jiaxin was shocked.
"Little Mianmian, Third Brother was wrong, Third Brother apologizes to you." He saluted Tong Mianmian, "Sorry, salute, fart, stink you to death!"
Tong Xuelu: "..."
Tong Jiaming: "..."
Where did this naughty child come from?
Tong Xuelu almost rolled her eyes, but as long as the brothers and sisters didn't go too far, she never interfered.
She took some vegetables and prepared to cook for the brothers and sisters, but she found a small piece of meat hidden under the vegetables.
Although it was only the size of a palm, it was meat.
Staying in a state-owned hotel really makes you eat delicious food.
She quickly made them stir-fried cabbage with meat, and fried tomatoes and eggs.
Tong Jiaxin screamed when he saw the meat, and was so happy that he wanted to roll over on the ground.
Tong Xulu had already eaten and didn't move her chopsticks: "If you are hungry in the evening, you don't have to wait for me to come back, just cook your own food, and I will eat in the hotel."
Tong Jiaxin looked envious: "When eating in a hotel, is there meat every meal?"
Tong Xulu thought for a while and nodded: "There is meat for lunch and dinner today." As for whether there will be meat tomorrow, no one knows.
Tong Jiaxin became more envious after hearing this. He suddenly clenched his fist and swore with gritted teeth: "I must be a butcher in the future!"
Tong Xuelu: "..."
No, you are a future design master, can your goal be a little higher?
Tong Mianmian tilted her head and said in a baby voice: "I want to be a waiter in a hotel like my sister in the future!"
Tong Xuelu: "…………"
Mianmian, you are a future big star, what is a waiter, we don't care.
Tong Jiaxin asked Tong Jiaming while eating meat: "What about you, second brother? What do you want to do?"
Tong Xuelu heard this and her eyes immediately fell on Tong Jiaming.
Tong Jiaming thought for a while and said: "Be a loader like our father."
Tong Xuelu: "………………"
Forget it, she didn't want to say anything.
**
It was Sunday, and the sun was shining brightly.
Tong's mother got up early in the morning, had breakfast, and then took the snacks she had prepared to catch the bus.
Seeing that Tong's mother was about to go out, sister-in-law Chen Yueling said quickly, "Mom, why don't I go with you? I haven't seen my little sister for a long time, and I miss her so much."
Tong's mother frowned and said, "I can go alone, and I told you before that Zhenzhen is your little sister, don't call her the wrong name again in the future!"
Chen Yueling didn't expect her mother-in-law to suddenly attack her, and she was stunned for a moment before nodding, "Mom, I remember, I just said it wrong because I was too quick to speak."
Tong's mother nodded and turned to go out.
As soon as Tong's mother walked away, Cai Chunlan appeared from nowhere and sneered, "Someone flattered the horse and hit the horse's leg. It's so funny!"
Chen Yueling's face flushed, glared at her, and turned back to her room.
After returning to the room, Chen Yueling told her husband what had just happened: "What do you think is wrong with mother? It seems to me that she has opinions about my younger sister, I mean, Xuelu?"
Brother Tong was still lying on the bed, turned over and said, "You think too much, mother has always loved my younger sister."
Chen Yueling curled her lips: "You have to be careful in the future. I just said my younger sister, and mother scolded me with a dark face!"
Mother-in-law used to love Tong Xuelu very much, but at that time she thought Xuelu was her biological daughter. Now she is not a daughter anymore, how can it be the same?
What's more, Tong Zhenzhen's incident happened, and now Tong Zhenzhen is still locked up in the farm.
Although it is Tong Zhenzhen who asked for trouble, people's hearts are biased.
But she didn't dare to say this, not even to her husband.
Tong's mother walked to the station and waited for more than an hour before she got the bus. Then she took a bumpy ride in the car for more than an hour to Yanqing County.
Then she asked for directions and walked for more than half an hour before she arrived at the family compound of the textile factory.
She was peeking at the gate of the family compound, and Aunt Cai happened to come back from buying vegetables. Seeing her like this, she asked loudly: "Sister, who are you looking for?" Aunt
Cai's voice has a speaker effect. Tong's mother was startled, and when she stepped back, she missed a step.
With a "bang", she fell backwards and sat on the ground.
Aunt Cai was also startled by her, and hurriedly helped her to stand up: "Hey, sister, are you okay?"
Just as Tong's mother stood up, she felt a pain in her ankle.
Her face turned pale: "I think my ankle was sprained."
Aunt Cai saw that she fell because of her, and felt a little sorry: "Why don't you come to my house and sit for a while, I will rub you with medicinal wine, and it will be fine soon."
Tong's mother shook her head: "No, my daughter lives inside, you just help me go to her house."
Aunt Cai helped her pick up the things on the ground, and asked after hearing this: "What's your daughter's name? Why have I never seen you before?"
Tong's mother: "My daughter's name is Tong Xuelu, and to be honest, I am her adoptive mother."
Tong Xuelu's adoptive mother?
"So you are Xuelu's adoptive mother," Aunt Cai sighed again, "That's not right. If you were Xuelu's adoptive mother, how come you didn't know that she moved?"
Tong's mother was stunned: "Moved? When did it happen?"
Aunt Cai looked at her suspiciously: "Are you really Xuelu's adoptive mother?"
Tong's mother felt blocked in her heart when she was looked at like this: "Of course I am her adoptive mother. I have raised her for fifteen years. What's there to lie about?"
Aunt Cai saw that she was carrying a lot of bags, her dress was not like that of ordinary people, and the information she said was consistent, so she believed her words.
"That's strange. Xuelu moved out a few days ago. She changed her job in a state-owned hotel. Didn't she tell you? Even if she didn't tell you, your son should have mentioned it to you. It was your son who drove the car to help her move that day!"
Tong's mother's eyes widened and she was shocked: "What did you say? She changed her job?"
Aunt Cai nodded: "Everyone thought you helped her change her job before, but now it seems that she did it herself. Xuelu, the eldest lady, is really capable!"
Tong's mother was shocked. She didn't expect Tong Xuelu to change her job to a good job in a state-owned hotel.
But when she thought that she didn't tell her, she felt uncomfortable.
"Do you know which state-owned hotel she moved to, and where she lives now?"
Aunt Cai said, "It seems to be a state-owned hotel in the south of the city, but I don't know where she lives."
Tong's mother's face became uglier.
She couldn't go to find Tong Xuelu in this state. She took a rest at Aunt Cai's
house, and when her feet didn't hurt so much, she carried her things and bumped back to the city. As soon as she returned to the Tong family, she scolded her two sons: "Who of you helped Xuelu move? Since you knew she moved, why didn't you tell me in advance?"
The round trip took six or seven hours, and she sprained her foot. The key point was that she was laughed at!
The woman was surprised and said that she was the adoptive mother, so how could she not know about Tong Xuelu's job change, as if she was a liar.
A big pot fell from the sky, and the eldest and second brothers Tong were stunned.
"Mom, what did you say? We didn't help Xuelu move?"
"Yes, and we didn't know about Xuelu's move at all!"
Tong's mother frowned and looked at them: "You really don't know? People in the compound said that Xuelu called that man brother, and said he was the brother of her adoptive parents. Who else could it be but you?"
The eldest brother Tong: "..."
The second brother Tong: "..."
It was frost in June, they didn't know anything at all!
Seeing that they didn't seem to know anything, Tong's mother told them that Tong Xuelu had changed to a state-owned hotel.
Everyone was shocked again when they heard it.
Cai Chunlan: "Mom, did Tong Xuelu really change her job?"
Tong's mother didn't answer her with a sullen face.
Seeing this, Cai Chunlan said "tsk", "If she's not our biological daughter, then she's not our biological daughter. Look, after she left our house, she never came back once except for the last time when my younger sister got into trouble. Now she changed her job and didn't tell us!"
Tong's mother's face got even darker.
**
Tong Xuelu didn't know that Tong's mother was looking for her.
After a few days of work, she gradually adapted to the state-owned hotel.
Except for the annoying Tan Xiaoyan, other people in the state-owned hotel were relatively easy to get along with.
Although Liu Dongchang was Tan Xiaoyan's brother-in-law, he had to avoid suspicion, and secondly, he was often not in the hotel, so he did not pose a threat to Tong Xuelu.
After work that day, Tong Xuelu was carrying a bunch of vegetables and preparing to go home.
As soon as I walked out of the state-owned hotel, someone called me: "You crybaby!"
Tong Xuelu looked up and saw Xiao Chengping leaning against the electric pole next to him, wearing a pair of white sneakers, a white "Dacron" shirt, and blue cloth pants, looking at her with a frown.
Before Tong Xuelu could say anything, Tan Xiaoyan was excited.
She didn't care about having to fight with Tong Xuelu, and took Tong Xuelu's hand and said, "Who is that man? Do you know him? It's so fashionable!"
Tong Xuelu: "..."
Just like that?
Well, "Dacron" and sneakers are rare these days, and it's really fashionable.
It's a pity that she really couldn't appreciate it.
She pulled back her hand and said, "What does it have to do with you whether I know him or not? You should look in the mirror more often when you have time!"
Tan Xiaoyan was so angry that she almost vomited blood: "..."
Bitch!
Tong Xuelu was too lazy to pay attention to her and walked towards Xiao Chengping: "Are you looking for me?"
Xiao Chengping saw the short and fat woman staring at them, raised his chin and said: "Let's talk while we walk."
Tong Xuelu didn't want Tan Xiaoyan to hear them talking, so she walked in front to lead the way.
Tan Xiaoyan heard what they said from behind and gnashed her teeth in anger.
After walking for a while, Tong Xuelu spoke: "Can you tell me now?"
Xiao Chengping looked down at her: "You crybaby, why didn't you tell me last time that you were not the daughter of the Tong family?"
He was busy this time when he came back. It was not until yesterday that he found out that Tong Xuelu was not the daughter of the Tong family. After some inquiries, he knew that she worked here, so he hurried over.
Tong Xuelu looked at him strangely: "Why should I tell you? We are not familiar with each other."
Xiao Chengping was upset when he heard her words: "We grew up in the same yard since we were young, how can we not be familiar with each other?"
"Okay, if you say we are familiar with each other, then so be it. What do you want to talk to me about?"
Tong Xuelu still didn't understand what he wanted to do. It was getting dark and she wanted to go back early.
Xiao Chengping was even more upset when he saw her look of "you are annoying and I don't want to talk to you". He took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to her, saying: "This is for you!"
Tong Xuelu didn't take it: "What's in it?"
Xiao Chengping said with a thick neck: "Just take it if I tell you to!"
Tong Xuelu didn't take it.
He shook his head and yelled, "It's money! But don't get me wrong, I just feel sorry for you, kicked out by the Tong family and having to support several younger brothers and sisters, so I want to lend you some money!"
"..."
Tong Xuelu looked at his expression of "I'll lend you money but don't even think about me", and was speechless.
"Thank you, I don't need it!"
No reward for no merit, and she didn't need to borrow money from others.
After saying that, she walked past him.
Xiao Chengping suddenly got anxious, and chased after her to put the envelope in her hand.
Tong Xuelu struggled to accept it, and at this moment, a warm voice came from the entrance of the alley -
"What are you doing?"
Tong Xuelu's heart moved when she heard the words, and she turned her head to look over.
Wen Rugui was standing at the entrance of the alley, the orange street lights shining on him, stretching his shadow on the ground.
His eyes fell on her and Xiao Chengping's hands, his long eyelashes covered his eyes, making it difficult to see what he was thinking.
Tong Xuelu raised her eyebrows slightly.
Didn't he say that he would have time to return to the city next month? Why was he here?
