After the matter was settled, Liu Guofeng left with his hands behind his back.
Su Ruoli and Lu Chen started pulling out the weeds. Both of them were quick workers, and before eleven o'clock they had finished.
When the two of them pushed their bicycles back home, Zhang Sitong had not returned yet, so Lu Chen unloaded everything from the bicycle.
Lu Chen said, "Xiao Li'er, these are all bought for you, please put them away."
"Why are you buying so many? I have everything here. Give them to Lu Jinyan." Su Ruoli said as she stuffed more things into Lu Chen's hands.
Lu Chen said, "It's okay, they don't need it. I brought them some things when I came. These are specially bought for you, so please keep them!" Then Lu Chen stuffed the things back into Su Ruoli's hands.
Liu Kaifan: If you don’t want to give it to us, then don’t give it to us. And you say we don’t need it. But we do need it, and we need it no matter how much you give us.
"Okay!" Su Ruoli couldn't refuse, so she could only take the things and said to Lu Chen, "Then you wash up first, I'll put the things away."
"Okay, go ahead!"
Su Ruoli brought all the things into the room, piled them all on the bed, and then left the room.
Lu Chen was washing up when he felt Su Ruoli coming out. He raised his head and drops of water flowed down his cheeks and Adam's apple, looking indescribably sexy.
Su Ruoli was stunned and swallowed involuntarily.
Su Ruoli didn't come back to her senses until Lu Chen started washing up again.
Su Ruoli also went back to her room to wash up and changed her clothes. Her clothes were covered in dirt from working every day.
When Su Ruoli came out, Lu Chen had already finished washing up.
Su Ruoli asked, "Brother Lu, what do you want to eat?"
Lu Chen said, "I have to go back to the army this afternoon. How about we go to the state-owned restaurant to eat? You don't have to cook."
"When are you leaving this afternoon?" Su Ruoli asked.
"Just go back by seven o'clock." Lu Chen said.
"Okay, I have to tell Sitong." As soon as Su Ruoli finished speaking, Zhang Sitong came in from the door.
"Ruoli, what do you want to say to me?" Zhang Sitong asked as she put down the backpack.
"Oh, I'm planning to go to the county town for dinner with Lu Chen. Do you want to go? Or let's go together." Su Ruoli said.
"You guys go ahead, I'll just eat something at home." If I go with you guys, I'll just eat dog food, and I won't go.
"You really aren't going?"
"No! No! You guys go quickly!" Zhang Sitong shook her head.
"Then let's go! Just eat something at home first, I'll bring you some food when I come back." Su Ruoli said.
"Okay, then you guys go! I'll go back and take a shower and sleep for a while." Zhang Sitong said as he walked into the house.
Lu Chen pushed the bicycle and Su Ruoli walked beside him. After they were out of the yard, Lu Chen stretched out his long legs and straddled the bicycle.
"Come, get in the car, I'll take you." Lu Chen said.
Su Ruoli did not hesitate and sat sideways on the back seat of the bicycle, holding the back seat with one hand and gently pulling Lu Chen's clothes with the other hand.
Sitting on the bicycle, Su Ruoli was still wondering whether this was her first date with Lu Chen.
Lu Chen was riding a bicycle and could occasionally smell the faint fragrance of Su Ruoli, and his ears turned red.
His mind was in a mess. The road was difficult to walk on. Lu Chen was not paying attention and his bicycle hit a rock, causing the body of the bicycle to tilt.
Due to inertia, Su Ruoli's nose hit Lu Chen's back. Her nose felt sore instantly and tears were about to burst out, but Su Ruoli held them back.
Lu Chen parked the car steadily, propped up his long legs on the ground, and turned to look at Su Ruoli, "Xiao Li'er, I'm sorry, are you okay?"
Su Ruoli got out from the back seat, covered her nose with her hands, and said with a nasal voice, "It's okay. Why is your back so hard? It hurts so much." But the words sounded like a coquettish thing.
Lu Chen also got out of the car and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! It's all my fault. Are you okay? Let me rub it for you. I won't let you get bumped again." As he said that, he raised his hand and rubbed Su Ruoli's nose.
As a result, seeing Su Ruoli looking like she was about to cry, he felt itchy in his heart and couldn't help but raise his other hand to rub Su Ruoli's head.
Lu Chen's hands were big, with a faint smell of soap, and a thick layer of calluses on the palms. Su Ruoli's face turned red immediately.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore!" Su Ruoli pulled Lu Chen's hand down.
"Are you really okay? Then shall we continue walking?" Lu Chen asked.
"It's okay, let's go!"
Lu Chen got on the bicycle again and Su Ruoli sat on the back seat.
This time, Lu Chen rode very carefully, fearing that he would hurt Su Ruoli.
By the time they arrived at the county town, Lu Chen already had a thin layer of sweat on his back.
Lu Chen stopped his bike, turned around and asked, "Xiao Li'er, do you want to eat first, or go shopping first?"
"Let's eat first. After we finish eating, I plan to buy some bottles." Su Ruoli said.
"Okay, let's go eat first. What do you want to eat?" Lu Chen asked.
"I want to eat braised pork." Su Ruoli thought of the braised pork in the state-owned restaurant in Beijing. Although the taste here was not as good as that in Beijing, it was also very delicious.
When they arrived at the state-owned hotel, Lu Chen stopped his bicycle, locked it, and then followed Su Ruoli in.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, Lu Chen pushed Su Ruoli to find a seat first, and he went to the counter to order.
If her partner insists on treating her to a meal, then she'll just sit and wait.
First, he ordered the braised pork that Su Ruoli wanted to eat, then ordered a serving of spicy chicken, tomato and egg, and finally a plate of smashed cucumber, and asked for two bowls of rice.
After paying for the ticket, Lu Chen took the number paper and went to the table where Su Ruoli was sitting. He pulled out a stool and sat opposite Su Ruoli.
Lu Chen picked up the kettle on the table, poured a glass of water for Su Ruoli, and then poured another glass for himself.
Then the two of them sat there chatting occasionally. Because they arrived late and it was past mealtime, the food was served quickly.
Lu Chen heard the waiter calling his number and stood up to serve the dishes.
"Let me go with you." Su Ruoli stood up and said.
"It's okay, just sit down, I'll be there soon." Lu Chen pushed Su Ruoli to sit on the stool, then went to serve the meal himself.
Lu Chen went back and forth twice before he finally brought all the food over.
"Why did you order so much?" Su Ruoli said, looking at the dishes on the table.
"Eat quickly. I don't know what else you want to eat, so I just ordered a few more at random. Eat quickly, or they will get cold soon." Lu Chen said.
The portions of meals nowadays are quite generous, unlike later times when the plates were so big but only had a few dishes.
Su Ruoli was full after eating the rice with the dishes. The rest was eaten by Lu Chen. They ordered so many dishes, but in the end there was nothing left. Lu Chen even ordered another bowl of rice.
Su Ruoli didn't know if soldiers all had big appetites.
After dinner, Su Ruoli drank another glass of water and sat quietly waiting for Lu Chen.
Lu Chen eats a lot, but he also eats very quickly and finishes his meal in just a few bites.
