But she was so moved by Song Lian's emotions at the moment that she had no time to think about it.
Looking at Song Lian's tearful face, Meng Zhen took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her: "Wipe it off, don't be sad."
The clean handkerchief exuded a faint fragrance. Song Lian glanced at the handkerchief and awkwardly reached out to wipe her face a few times: "No, I'm covered in mud, don't dirty your handkerchief."
Only now did Song Lian pay attention to Meng Zhen's dress.
I saw that she was wearing a large men's coat. Her small face was dazzlingly white in the moonlight. Her appearance was graceful and her features were delicate, as if she had walked out of a painting. She was even more dazzling than when I first met her.
Considering the man with a cold aura outside the car, the two seemed to be together.
Song Lian opened her mouth, she had a lot of questions in her mind, but she didn't know how to start.
After all, the other party also lived with Zhu Guiyuan, and there was a tall man outside. Did that man know? What was the relationship between the two?
Meng Zhen looked at Song Lian, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, and guessed what she was thinking.
She didn't hide anything and told Song Lian about her experience directly.
But she didn't reveal anything that she shouldn't have.
After hearing this, Song Lian seemed a little unbelievable: "So you didn't do that with Zhu Gui?"
"No, I faked my death before consummating my marriage. Zhu Gui seems to be a little afraid of the dead."
Song Lian nodded, unable to explain what she felt at that moment.
They all suffer the same misfortune, but some people are just luckier. Not only do they keep their innocence, but they also meet such a perfect partner.
There was a hint of envy in Song Lian's eyes.
Meng Zhen didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only encourage her: "There is still a long way to go, and you will have the opportunity to meet the right person."
"Me? I already...ah, who would be interested in a body like mine..."
"If you can't even look down on yourself, then there's really no hope for you."
Meng Zhen sighed in his heart.
The abominable concept of chastity in the 1980s was such that girls were clearly victims, yet they still had to bear the shackles of it for the rest of their lives.
She had no way to deal with the gap in concepts caused by the cognition of the times.
As the two were talking, the rain outside finally stopped.
Liu Yuzhou also returned to the car.
The man was covered in a thick layer of dampness, with water droplets dripping down the ends of his distinct hair, but this did not detract from his noble and cool aura.
Meng Zhen leaned towards the driver's seat and wiped the water droplets from the man's temples with the handkerchief in his hand.
The man lowered his brows and tilted his head, the sharp lines on his body softened, and he rubbed his cheek with the handkerchief.
The two people's intimate actions seemed as if they had known each other for a long time.
The engine roared, pulling the car out of the mud.
Song Lian in the back seat looked away uncomfortably, lowered her head to look at her right foot covered in mud, a hint of obscurity flashed through her heart.
It was late at night when the three returned to the geological team.
After settling Song Lian, Liu Yuzhou and Meng Zhen returned to the dormitory.
Because of Song Lian's matter tonight, both of them felt a little heavy in their hearts.
It was rare for Meng Zhen not to act coquettishly with the man, and she didn't have the heart to think about his special physique.
I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, thinking about Song Lian.
The person was saved, but what will happen next?
The educated youth were not allowed to leave the commune without permission and could be arrested at any time.
She faked her own death, so even if she was discovered, she had a way to deal with it.
But Song Lian's situation was obviously different from hers. After being caught, she would definitely continue to be bullied by Zhu Gui.
It would also likely expose her situation. Those educated youth had already spread rumors that she had slept with an old bachelor, and if Zhu Gui got involved, things would only get more complicated.
It’s just like the fake news about celebrities in the entertainment industry. It feels good to spread rumors, but it takes a lot of effort to refute them.
She could be casual and relaxed, not taking those rumors seriously, and would fight them without mercy.
But now she has obtained her marriage certificate with Liu Yuzhou, and will be living in the geological team for a long time, so she has to take care of her man's face when she is outside.
I don’t know what that man’s plans are for Song Lian?
Could it be that he is a hero saving a beauty and goes straight to Songlin Village to capture Zhu Gui?
Forget it, putting aside the messy thoughts in his mind, Meng Zhen decided to have a good sleep first.
As a result, when I woke up, it was already noon.
Liu Yuzhou went to the cafeteria to get two dishes and returned to the dormitory.
Meng Zhen got up, washed up, and sat down at the table to eat.
The things that I couldn't figure out last night came to my mind again.
He poked the brown rice in the enamel pot with his chopsticks intermittently, with a heavy heart.
The man noticed her movements and said in a deep voice, "What's wrong? Is the food not to your liking?"
Meng Zhen sighed, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "What are you going to do about Song Lian?"
"What to do?"
Liu Yuzhou raised his eyebrows. So his wife was worried about this?
When he rescued her, he didn't think about being responsible for Song Lian afterwards. He asked her to get in the car just because he felt pity for her.
He's not a bad guy, but he's not a fool either.
Saving a person does not mean you have to be responsible for the rest of her life.
As for Zhu Gui from Songlin Village, he has his own plans and will not change because of Song Lian's appearance.
But now that his wife had spoken, he explained, "Give her some money to help her return home safely, or report it to the Youth League Office and let them solve it."
The man's answer finally made Meng Zhen feel relieved.
It seems that this man is the same type of person as her, and he knows what he is doing.
Don't rush forward to be the messenger of justice in a rash manner, or imitate the male protagonist in Qiong Yao and take in another maid.
She nodded: "Then I will talk to Song Lian this afternoon and ask her about her wishes."
