A big hand grabbed her clothes from behind, but the expected pain did not come. Instead, she swayed backwards a few times and fell into an embrace.
A clear and pleasant soapy scent emanated from the man. Fan Hua looked up and saw that the man was none other than Zhao Yilu who had followed closely behind her.
"Comrade Zhao, thank you for what you did just now!" Fan Hua said in a low voice.
Zhao Yilu loosened his hand and said calmly, "Watch your step."
"Oh, okay~"
After saying that, Fan Hua continued to walk forward. She did not stop until she reached the connection between the carriages. Because the connection was shaking violently, and the wind blew in through the gap between the doors, this was the only place where no one was sleeping.
Fan Hua turned around and looked at Zhao Yilu, and the two began to chat in low voices.
"Comrade Zhao, thank you for today. Consider the two hundred yuan and the things you left on my seat as loans. I will pay you back slowly when I make some money in the south."
Zhao Yilu was about to say no, but then he thought that if he let her remember the money she owed him, then they would naturally keep in touch. So he asked with a serious expression, "How are you going to pay me back?"
"Well……"
Fan Hua never expected that he would ask so directly. After thinking for a while, she replied seriously, "I will find a way to make money when I get to the south. When I have more money and a regular income, I will remit the money to you. Just give me the address of your unit. I won't be a deadbeat."
As soon as Fan Hua finished speaking, Zhao Yilu took out a note from his pocket and handed it to Fan Hua, "This is the address and public phone number of our unit. When you arrive in Yangcheng and settle down, remember to contact me as soon as possible. If you can't find a job, it doesn't matter. You can use this money to take a bus back to Kyoto, and I will call my grandfather to help you find a job."
Fan Hua took the address and didn't listen to what Zhao Yilu said at all. There was absolutely no way she would go to Kyoto, and she didn't want Zhao Yilu's family to know of her existence. She planned to return the money to him according to this address after she went to the south and made money.
"Okay, I will definitely return the money to you as soon as possible. Also, Comrade Zhao, I have one more favor to ask of you."
Zhao Yilu looked at Fan Hua in confusion, waiting for her to continue.
"That's right, could you please not tell your brother about meeting me? I know you helped me out of your brother's face, but I don't want to have any contact with him in the future, so I hope you can keep it a secret for me."
"My brother? What's going on between you and my brother?" Zhao Yilu looked at Fan Hua puzzledly, hoping to see something from her expression.
"Yes, your brother He Siyan, I think he should have told you about what happened between us that night, so you helped me like this."
Zhao Yilu looked at Fan Hua's serious little face, and suddenly a new guess came to his mind. Did she think that the person who slept with her that night was her brother?
But if she remembered that incident, how could she not recognize him? She was awake that night! Zhao Yilu was full of doubts.
"Do you remember that?"
"I remember, how could I not remember!"
"Then do you know me?"
"Didn't you say your name is Zhao Yilu~" Fan Hua was also confused and didn't understand why Zhao Yilu asked that.
"Then how do you know that I am He Siyan's younger brother?" Zhao Yilu asked again.
Fan Hua was stunned for a moment, thinking, isn't it because you met the original owner Fan Lihua when you came to the village to see your brother that you recognized me at a glance today?
But Fan Hua didn't dare to ask at all. Seeing Zhao Yilu's expression as if the original owner shouldn't know that he was He Siyan's younger brother, she guessed, could it be that Zhao Yilu knew the original owner, but the original owner didn't know Zhao Yilu?
Oh, why is it so confusing? Why didn't she inherit the original owner's memory when she was allowed to travel through the book? It's really troublesome!
Fan Hua suddenly had an idea and thought of a reason that neither He Siyan nor Zhao Yilu could verify: "Oh, that night, your brother was drunk and talking in his sleep, and he mentioned the name Zhao Yilu. I asked him who Zhao Yilu was, and he told me with certainty that Zhao Yilu was He Siyan's younger brother..."
Fan Hua felt that she was so smart that she could come up with such a perfect reason.
Zhao looked straight into Fan Hua's eyes, wondering if he had said anything in his sleep that night. But as Fan Hua expected, he was drunk at the time, and apart from remembering that he had had sex with Fan Lihua, he could not remember anything else.
He looked directly at Fan Hua and continued to ask, "Do you still remember what my brother looks like?"
Fan Hua thought about it and shook her head truthfully: "I don't remember. Didn't I tell you that I hit my head? I only remember some individual events and names from the past, but I have forgotten what those people looked like."
After saying this, Fan Hua did not forget to complain in her heart, after all, you are all paper people, of course I don’t know what you look like.
"Is there such a miraculous thing?"
Zhao Yilu felt that Fan Hua's words were full of doubts and there were many things that didn't make sense, but this person was indeed Fan Hua, and the look in her eyes when she didn't recognize him didn't seem like she was pretending.
Seeing Zhao Yilu's unconvincing look, Fan Hua was a little annoyed. "There is nothing strange in the world. This thing really happened to me, and you haven't said whether you agree to what happened just now!"
"What's up?"
"Just don't tell your brother about seeing me! Don't!!!"
"Why?"
"Because I have reflected on it, that incident was indeed my and my family's fault, otherwise your brother would never have had any contact with me. He and I have no feelings for each other, so I don't want to use this to entangle your brother. From now on, your brother and I will live our own lives and not contact each other. So, please keep it a secret for me, Comrade Zhao, and just pretend that you have never seen me!"
Zhao Yilu inexplicably felt that Fan Hua's words were a bit harsh.
What does it mean to live your own life and not contact each other? Does she want to end all ties with him? Can she pretend she didn't sleep with him?! Does she hate herself so much?
Zhao Yilu looked at Fan Hua's serious face and thought for a moment. He must first find out why Fan Hua was so resistant to what happened that night and why she hated him so much that night.
Otherwise, with her current attitude, after knowing the truth, she will not only return the money to me immediately, but will also completely cut off ties with me!
But now he has to join the army and can't protect her well! He has to accept the money!
As for his pretending to be his brother to go to the countryside to work as an educated youth, the fewer people who knew about it, the better, especially since he was not sure whether the rumors about the girl in the village were true or false.
He didn't dare to gamble with his and his brother's future. What if this girl was really as stupid as the rumors said, and spread the matter out? Then both his brother who had just been admitted to Beijing University and he would have to go to jail!
"Okay, I promise I won't tell my brother!" Zhao Yilu promised solemnly.
Seeing that he agreed so readily, Fan Hua finally felt relieved. "By the way, I see the address you just gave me is in Guicheng. Please pay attention to your safety. The relationship between China and Yue has been a little tense recently. I'm afraid there will be friction."
"You also understand national politics?" Zhao Yilu was surprised.
"I just heard it from someone. Anyway, you should be more careful."
Thinking that Zhao Yilu's legs would be crippled in the autumn when he turned 22, Fan Hua couldn't help but ask, "Comrade Zhao, how old are you this year?"
Zhao Yilu always felt that Fan Hua was acting strange today. Not only was she strange, but the questions she asked were also strange. However, he still answered truthfully, "Nineteen, and she will be twenty in three months."
Zhao Yilu actually wanted to say that they could get a marriage certificate after they turned 20. But thinking about the current situation, he swallowed the second half of the sentence and decided to talk about it later!
Fan Hua let out a long breath, "It's not bad, it's not bad, there are still three years."
Considering that this cannon fodder brother is a good person, I will give him a friendly reminder when the time comes. If he can avoid it, that would be the best. If he can't, that would be his fate!
Zhao Yilu saw Fan Hua's relieved expression and couldn't help but jokingly asked, "Comrade Fan, do you have any thoughts when you ask me about my age?"
Fan Hua stared at him with wide eyes, "What can I think? I just asked casually. You look mature and experienced, but I didn't expect you to be so young, still a little brother. Well, when you join the army, listen to the organization's words and don't act rashly. When you are on a mission, you must pay attention to safety. You are so young, if you lose your arms and legs, it will be difficult for you to find a wife in the future."
Zhao Yilu was very upset. Why did the tone sound like an elder talking to a younger person?
"Comrade Fan, are you cursing me to lose my arms and legs?"
"How can you be so ungrateful? I was clearly reminding you with good intentions."
Zhao Yi Lu saw that Fan Hua seemed to be really angry, so he changed the subject and said, "So which city is Comrade Fan going to this time?"
"I plan to go to Guangzhou. It's developing very fast and there are more opportunities." Fan Hua replied without thinking.
"Indeed, I've heard that Yangcheng is developing very well now. Yangcheng and Guicheng are not too far away. I'll come to see you when I'm on vacation."
