Chapter 161 Collision
When Lin Li and Mu Qing played until noon, Lin Li suggested going to the state-owned hotel for a meal.
"We had dinner at nine before, but it's only eleven now, so we have to eat two meals in two hours," Mu Qing laughed. "Besides, sister, you had such a rich breakfast at home, how can you still eat it?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Lin Li said without hesitation.
"Let's go back first," Mu Qing said, "to see if your brother is at home or out. If he is, let's invite him to have a meal at the state-owned restaurant in the commune so that he can also share in our joy..."
Lin Li never expected Mu Qing to mention Lin Hua.
She was a little confused, but after thinking for a while, she felt happy for Lin Hua.
This was the first time that someone who was not a family member actually cared about whether Lin Hua had had lunch.
And not only that, Lin Li actually heard Mu Qing's embarrassing little secret. She thought... Lin Hua was pretty good?
So Lin Li began to think frantically.
Is there a possibility that she can bring Lin Hua and Mu Qing together...?
But no matter how overwhelming these thoughts were in his mind, Lin Li had to remain calm.
She observed again.
Living in a commune is more convenient. You can take the bus back directly without having to stop by a horse-drawn carriage on the road.
When Lin Li and Mu Qing got off the car, they suddenly saw Lin Hua.
"Brother, is this such a coincidence?" Lin Li ran over, "How did you know we would come back at this time?"
There were no telephones in those days, and countless things were missed because two people could not communicate.
Even if there is only a wall separating us, if one goes west and the other goes east, we can miss each other's lives.
So telephones in later generations are really great things.
Lin Hua looked tired: "I know you will get off here when you come back by bus, I wonder when you will come back..."
He helped Lin Li take the package.
"Then how come we bumped into each other at this time..."
"I was originally in the school library. You know, we have a telephone there..." Lin Hua accompanied Lin Li and Mu Qing back, "and there is also a telephone at the Agricultural Science Academy. Su Zhen had contacted me once before, but three hours ago, he suddenly asked me to answer the phone again..."
"Oh?" Lin Li looked over mysteriously, "Su Zhen can't stand losing, so he secretly complained to you?"
"Not really. He asked if you had come back, and I said no..." Lin Hua began to hesitate here.
Lin Li suddenly heard his thoughts. It turned out that three hours ago, Su Zhen asked Lin Hua if Lin Li had returned. Lin Hua said no. Then, Su Zhen said, wait for them to come back and call him back.
Su Zhen actually said that Lin Li had been with Mu Qing, and he was - worried? Was he afraid that Lin Li had been deceived by the quack Mu Qing?
What a mess this is.
Su Zhen was too much of a villain in judging others by his own standards.
He really doesn't think of Mu Qing as a good person anymore...
Lin Hua didn't believe what Su Zhen said, he thought Mu Qing was a good person.
He also told Su Zhen the same thing.
But Su Zhen told Lin Hua that Lin Lu had made a bet with him after being instigated by Mu Qing.
Lin Hua was also very worried. Later, he heard that if his sister lost, she would just have to break up with Mu Qing and there would be no other losses. But if Su Zhen lost, he would have to lose 1,000 yuan...
Lin Hua said to Su Zhen with a gloating look: "You should worry about yourself... worry about your one thousand yuan... that's not a small amount..."
Su Zhen: "Why should I worry about my money? I'm afraid Mu Qing will let Lin Li gamble with others again! After all, Lin Li is Ling Xiao's lover, and some departments will let Lin Li in for Ling Xiao's sake. What if she loses herself in the gamble?"
Lin Hua sneered: "My sister is not that stupid."
After finishing the phone call, Lin Hua went to the pharmaceutical factory again.
Tell the factory manager that he will definitely call him when Ling Xiao's matter is almost done. After he calls the factory, ask him to tell him that Lin Hua wants to see him.
Let him call Lin Hua.
Then, for the next three hours, Lin Hua didn't go anywhere but waited for a call in the school library.
Just a short while ago, I finally received a call from Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao said that he had almost finished his work and would buy a ticket and return from the provincial capital in ten minutes. Then he asked Lin Hua what he wanted to see him about.
Lin Hua repeated Su Zhen's exact words.
Then he asked Ling Xiao if he thought Mu Qing would deceive Lin Li and let her gamble with others again.
Ling Xiao calmly replied: "No. They are not that stupid."
"Oh... then I'm relieved..." Although Lin Hua had confronted Su Zhen in the same way, he was still a little worried in his heart despite his tough words. Now that Ling Xiao had given him a reassurance, he felt relieved.
Then Ling Xiao said, "Comrade Mu Qing's medicine is indeed extraordinary. I have been using Mu Qing's medicine in the past few months, but before it was launched on the market, I didn't tell my family or the factory manager. Only Lin Li and Mu Qing knew about it. From now on, I will cooperate with Mu Qing on a large scale. So don't let Mu Qing go home yet, let her wait for me to come back as much as possible. I have important work to discuss with her after I go back..."
Lin Hua had a very good impression of Mu Qing today. He was very happy to hear Ling Xiao, who never praises others, also praising Mu Qing.
So now, I came to the commune station again to wait for Lin Li and Mu Qing.
But this time he didn't have to wait that long, and he quickly got the person.
Mu Qing didn’t know what Lin Hua was thinking. She only knew that Su Zhen was “concerned” about whether she and Lin Li had returned, so Lin Hua came to wait for them.
Now that Lin Li knew the whole story, she stopped Lin Hua from talking any further. She called her second brother and said, "Second brother, I wanted to go to the State-owned Hotel with Mu Qing for lunch, but Mu Qing said that you are the only one at home today, and she doesn't know if you have eaten. So she asked me to come back first and take you to the Commune Hotel for lunch."
Hearing Lin Li's words, Lin Hua felt warm in his heart and glanced at Mu Qing.
The more I look at this girl, the more I like her. Even if I walk with her without talking, just looking at her once, I will feel a warm feeling in my heart.
Even though Lin Hua comes from the countryside, is always unkempt, and is always on the verge of isolation, his personality is not as warm as he appears, he is actually a bit cold.
He is indifferent to many people and many things.
Moreover, ever since he missed the girl he was not destined to be with, his heart has never wavered in love again.
When he usually walks with his male colleagues, they would talk to each other when they see beautiful women, but he would not even look at the most beautiful girl.
Others secretly said that he was abnormal, and some said that his standards were too high.
In fact, it’s not that he has high standards, he’s just not interested.
Now there are often girls pursuing him in the factory, and some very beautiful girls write love letters to him, but he knows that some of the reasons are due to himself, but to a large extent, those girls have seen his relationship with the great hero Ling Xiao and know that his family is now better off.
In addition to the title of combat hero, Ling Xiao has now become the technical director of the factory after just a few months, and earns the salary of three ordinary workers.
Many girls are jealous.
Unfortunately, he couldn't catch Ling Xiao, so he settled for the next best thing and set his sights on Lin Hua.
Lin Li always wondered why her second brother, now that he could make money and start planning for the future, was still unkempt and untidy all day long. She wanted Lin Hua to clean himself up, but she always hesitated and didn't have the courage to say it.
In fact, she misunderstood Lin Hua.
Lin Hua had wanted to clean himself up and start a new life, but later he was entangled by several bold girls. After he rejected their direct pursuit, they continued to be nice to him without disturbing him.
So he thought again, in order not to increase the chances of such a thing happening to him, he should just maintain this image for the time being.
