At first, Li Zhuoran actually had a good impression of Su Mu. As for the rumors about the engagement, he was able to come out and clarify them. He thought this man was quite frank.
Later, I was often with Shen Niannanqiao, and I couldn't help but hear the gossip between Qin Fang and Dong Jiayan.
It's hard not to guess the relationship between the two.
Judging from Su Mu's behavior, he should have feelings for Nanqiao, but he just couldn't understand why Su Mu was so timid and hesitant.
It is good to be thoughtful when doing things, but overthinking can cause trouble for others.
Li Zhuoran has a crush on Nanqiao, but it is more out of a man's admiration for a beautiful girl, and he has no other bad intentions.
So during this period of time, I subconsciously paid attention to and took care of Shen Nian and Nan Qiao.
Compared with men and women, he treated Nanqiao and Shen Nian as his sisters, and felt sorry for the two pretty girls who were working hard on the land.
So seeing Su Mu hesitating and causing trouble for others is a bit unbearable.
You said that if you really don't care, just stay away from Nanqiao, so that your childhood sweetheart won't be looking for trouble with Nanqiao every day.
If you have any thoughts, just express them openly and completely cut off Xiao Qingmei's thoughts.
But this Sumu has none of them, it has to be stuck in the middle, isn't that infuriating?
But even though I couldn't stand it, I just had to give him a few words. After all, he had no right to tell others what to do.
It’s better to have a good sleep and continue gossiping with Shen Nian in the afternoon.
Try to help Nanqiao's sister with some work
Thinking this way, Li Zhuoran followed Su Mu back to his room and went to sleep.
In the afternoon, Nanqiao went to work as usual. He sat alone in the yard, flipping through his high school textbooks.
Before she crossed into the book, she had just finished the college entrance examination, and the exam was for Tsinghua University, so now she found the knowledge in the book very easy. After flipping through it a few times, she found it boring and took out a German original book from the space that she had not finished reading before - Affinity
The novel tells the story of a couple who went through many twists and turns and finally got married in middle age. Their originally happy and ordinary life turned into a story after a friend came to them, which gave rise to passion, pain, short-lived happiness and long-lasting misfortune.
When Nanqiao took out the book, he carefully removed the cover.
Only the white inner cover is left, with Die Wahlverwandtschaften embossed on it, which is not very obvious.
This book is just right for Nanqiao's German level. There are no obscure words and it is very smooth to read.
So Nanqiao spent the whole afternoon reading under the shadow of the tree in the yard. The breeze was blowing, and the rocking chair was rocking gently. On the table beside him were several high school textbooks and a white thermos cup with a lid.
If you don't open it, no one will know that Nanqiao poured iced coffee into the cup.
This is the scene Sheng Yanchuan saw when he came in.
The sun shines through the shade of the trees onto Nanqiao, and the woman's beautiful figure seems to be glowing, beautiful beyond mortals.
Even this somewhat shabby yard now looks much cleaner and brighter.
The sound of Sheng Yanchuan pushing the door startled Nanqiao, and he turned his eyes away from the book and looked at the person who came.
Seeing that it was Sheng Yanchuan, Nanqiao smiled.
"Why are you here?" Nanqiao looked at Sheng Yanchuan and Taohua behind him and asked in surprise
"I'll bring you some watermelons," Sheng Yanchuan said as he placed the basket on the table in front of Nanqiao.
Taohua seemed to be caught by her brother in her sleep and used as a shield. She came in dazedly, called out "sister", and then curled up in a chair next to Nanqiao to sleep.
"Aren't you going into town this afternoon?"
"I'm leaving later, so I brought you the watermelon first." Sheng Yanchuan took out the watermelon and handed it to her. His eyes accidentally saw the book that Nanqiao had just read.
Nanqiao casually placed the book on the table. When he opened the pages, he saw words that Sheng Yanchuan could not understand.
"Is this what you are looking at? What language is this?" Sheng Yanchuan asked curiously.
Damn, I forgot about this thing... Nanqiao stammered, "This... This is in German, can't I read it..."
"Just look at it indoors, don't take it out normally, the villagers won't understand and it may cause you trouble."
"Okay." Nanqiao quickly closed the book and put it under other textbooks.
She neglected it. She thought that everyone was at work and no one would come, so she didn't think too much about it.
"You can speak German?" Sheng Yanchuan asked
"I know a little bit, but it's very simple. My uncle is in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He taught me a little bit when I was a kid." Nanqiao explained skillfully.
This was a reason she had prepared long ago. Ever since Shen Nian said she wanted to study foreign languages, Nan Qiao had already started thinking about how to justify her ability to speak foreign languages...
The original owner did have an uncle who worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and was stationed abroad... but not in Germany...
"Well, eat watermelon." Sheng Yanchuan hummed and urged Nanqiao to eat watermelon, but she was thinking in her heart, "What should I do? The gap between her and Nanqiao seems to be getting bigger and bigger... It seems that I have to hurry up to grab the watermelons on the mountain."
"You eat too, there are so many."
"I've already eaten at home. If you can't finish it, save it for later and eat it with Shen Zhiqing in the evening."
"Okay," Nanqiao nodded, and continued to eat the slice of watermelon in his hand.
"Qiaoqiao, how did you sprain your ankle?" Su Mu's voice came along with the sound of the door opening. Su Mu had been trying his best to control his emotions. God knows how angry he was when he saw Sheng Yanchuan and Nanqiao talking and laughing outside the yard just now. She was obviously his, so why did Sheng Yanchuan want to snatch her from him?
