Chapter 22: South Bridge Wants to Go to the Black Market



"Li Zhuoran, do you know why Nanqiao didn't come to work this morning?" Su Mu pulled Li Zhuoran to a corner of the yard and asked in a low voice.

He went there in the morning but didn't see Nanqiao. Sheng Yanchuan also left after working for a while. He felt uneasy all morning, fearing that Sheng Yanchuan had taken Nanqiao away yesterday and done something he shouldn't have done.

It was inconvenient to ask in the morning because there were too many people around. Now that Li Zhuoran was alone, he couldn't wait to pull him over to ask.

"Nanqiao?" Li Zhuoran asked jokingly, "Why are you asking what the educated youth in Nanqiao do?"

"We are from the same hometown. I was worried when I didn't see her here today."

"Just a fellow villager? No other reason?"

"Of course. Even if it wasn't Nanqiao, I would care about other people. Nanqiao is no different."

"Why don't you care about Qin Fang? There's a big quarrel every three days and a small quarrel every two days next door."

"She's fine, isn't she? Besides, it's just a quarrel between two girls, why should I, a man, get involved?"

Su Mu said it seriously, as if he was just being polite to Nan Qiao. Li Zhuoran looked down on him. He was not as frank as Sheng Yanchuan. If he liked someone, he liked him. If he didn't like someone, he didn't like him. It was meaningless to hide it.

Although feelings are private matters and there is no need to elaborate on them, it is intriguing that she was so eager to distance herself from him after just a few words...

"Oh" Li Zhuoran said and said nothing more

"What are you saying? What happened to her?" Su Mu was a little anxious when he saw Li Zhuoran's reaction.

"What's the matter? My leg is sprained. Just rest at home."

"Sprained ankle? How could it be sprained? Is it serious?" Did that bastard Sheng Yanchuan really do something? Su Mu couldn't help but think in his heart.

"It's not serious. I can still walk, but I need to rest for a few days."

"I have to go take a look," Su Mu said as he was about to leave.

"She's a girl, there's nothing to do. Why are you going to her house in the middle of the day? It's not appropriate to be from the same hometown," Li Zhuoran said nonchalantly.

Su Mu, who was about to leave, paused, choked by Li Zhuoran's words, and felt that he was a little impulsive.

Thinking that Nanqiao should be resting now, he returned to the house somewhat dejectedly.

Li Zhuoran looked at Su Mu's back and couldn't help but sneer.
