This man is really good at working!
She was hoping to get some money back, but he ended up moving his entire house back for her?!
At that moment, all she wanted to do was shout—Dad's awesome!!
"You're amazing! They just let you move them like that? Didn't they even struggle?" Xia Lan asked incredulously. So easy? Didn't those people cause any trouble or anything?
If Xu Fulin were here, he could explain it to Xia Lan.
As soon as Qin Yu arrived, he kicked down the door, intimidating everyone. Zhao Tong, the village chief of Xiahe Village, was already known as a coward, and with Qin Yu's move, he was terrified and dared not resist.
As for the Xia family, Xia Wei was almost strangled to death by Qin Yu, and he was so scared that he wet himself. Xia Wei's wife is known for her fierceness, but she didn't dare to cause trouble in front of Qin Yu, this devil.
The people of Xiahe Village were trembling with fear. How could anyone dare to provoke Qin Yu? They could only watch helplessly as the villagers emptied the Xia family's house without daring to utter a word.
Xu Fulin was not present, so Qin Yu only had one character on his name.
"Um."
Xia Lan looked at Qin Yu and smiled. "Hero, please accept this humble woman's bow."
Despite saying that, Xia Lan made no move.
Qin Yu looked at Xia Lan earnestly and said, "I can protect you."
The words "take it seriously" made Xia Lan, who was always grinning, freeze in shock...
Qin Yu did everything she said.
"Have you thought it through? Do you want to stay..." The sincerity in Qin Yu's eyes made it impossible for Xia Lan to bring up the idea of ending the conversation with a joke.
He was taking it too seriously; she felt guilty if she tried to brush him off.
She truly has nowhere to go now. As an orphan, without a man in this era, it's practically impossible for her to get by.
Xia Lan carefully considered Qin Yu's suggestion. Qin Yu clenched his fists; no one knew how uneasy he was.
The air was thick with a tense atmosphere.
Xia Lan counted Qin Yu's positive attributes one by one, making a rational comparison.
Qin Yu was her savior and was willing to spend money to save her. —+1 point.
Qin Yu was separated from the Qin family, which meant he no longer had a mother-in-law to keep an eye on him. —+1 point.
Qin Yu is a retired soldier with a strong and muscular build. He can easily carry her in a princess carry, showing off his boyfriend-like qualities. —+100 points.
Xia Lan seemed to have made up her mind and looked up at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu watched her silently.
“I can agree to stay, but you can’t…you can’t…” Xia Lan looked at Qin Yu, unable to say the word.
When Qin Yu heard that Xia Lan was willing to stay, a light flashed in his eyes. Then, seeing Xia Lan blushing and unable to say what she was saying, Qin Yu nodded. "I understand. I will wait for you to willingly become my wife."
"And... I... I can't cook." Xia Lan lowered her head in shame as she said this.
Whether it's the original Xia Lan or the modern Xia Lan, she's a kitchen killer.
Because she was the only daughter in her family, Xia's mother and father doted on her. Especially after eating the food she cooked, Xia's mother decided that her daughter should never enter the kitchen again.
In her past life, she was a complete kitchen disaster. She didn't understand why, even though she followed other people's steps to cook, her food was so bad that even her gluttonous husky wouldn't eat it.
Qin Yu, thinking of Xia Lan's background, nodded understandingly. "It's alright, I used to be a cook in the army, I'll cook for you from now on."
"That's wonderful! I'll help with everything else," Xia Lan said happily, extending her hand to Qin Yu. "Comrade Qin Yu, please guide me for the rest of my life."
"Okay." Qin Yu looked at Xia Lan.
Sensing that she was truly willing to stay, Qin Yu's lips slowly curled up into a wide smile.
Seeing such a smiling face, Xia Lan felt a surge of joy in her heart.
"Oh, right, here's two hundred for you." Xia Lan placed the two hundred yuan that Qin's mother had given her into Qin Yu's hand.
Qin Yu shook his head and refused, placing the money in Xia Lan's arms. "This is your betrothal money."
"You are my savior, I have no way to repay you, so I offer myself to you... cough, I will serve you like a slave." Xia Lan blurted out, trying to salvage the situation.
"This is my money, you can have it all. You'll be in charge of the money at home from now on." Qin Yu took out his own money from his pocket and handed it to Xia Lan, who looked at him in astonishment.
"If you give me everything, aren't you afraid I'll just take the money and run?"
"You won't." Qin Yu chuckled. "I believe you."
Xia Lan instantly felt those four words stuck to her like a tight headband.
"How could you be so foolish? You're so good to me, what do you want in return?" Xia Lan looked at Qin Yu calmly.
He said he would let her leave if she didn't want to. So what was he after spending so much money to save her life, carrying her to the clinic time and time again, and taking such good care of her?
"Of course, I want you to stay and be my wife! If you don't want to, I'll respect your decision and let you leave." Qin Yu looked at Xia Lan calmly, as if it were a simple matter. "Besides, you're so sick, how can I abandon you like they did?"
"If you save another woman in the future, will you marry her?" Xia Lan frowned, not satisfied with the answer.
"Of course not, I'm not stupid!" Qin Yu paused for a moment, then chuckled. "You're beautiful, and you have a cute and interesting personality. I'm a man, of course I want to have you."
Xia Lan's cheeks burned, her face flushed, and she stared at Qin Yu in shock.
This was the first time she had been praised so directly, and her charm as a woman had been affirmed.
How did this man manage to say such flirtatious things in such a calm tone?
Suddenly, a possibility I don't really like came to mind...
"Who else have you said such things to?" Xia Lan frowned and stared at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu shook his head. "I've never said anything like that to any other woman except you. I'm bad with words and women don't like me."
"You're not allowed to talk to other women anymore, especially young and pretty ones," Xia Lan threatened, poking Qin Yu's chest menacingly.
"Okay." Looking at Xia Lan's cute yet fierce appearance, Qin Yu thought of the wild rabbit he had encountered before. It was small, cute, and fluffy with no fighting ability, but it dared to kick him fiercely.
"Gurgle~" A gurgling sound suddenly rang out, and Xia Lan blushed as she covered her rumbling stomach.
"Why haven't you eaten?" Qin Yu frowned and quickly went to the kitchen. Seeing that the porridge was already cold, he heated it up and brought it to Xia Lan. "I told you not to wait for me."
“…I feel bad leaving you to eat alone.” Xia Lan blushed and obediently drank her porridge.
This is Qin Yu's home, after all. Before she decided to stay, she felt it wasn't right to eat behind the owner's back.
Qin Yu didn't say anything, he just reached out and ruffled Xia Lan's hair...
