Chapter 383: The Angry Warlords of the Republic of China vs. the Educated and Well-mannered Daughter from Overseas
The proprietress quickly brought two bowls of steaming hot noodles to the table. Si Jinnian sat in the backlight, with only a section of his smooth and straight chin showing. It was still dark, so the proprietress couldn't see him clearly, but she could feel his handsomeness from this section of his chin.
She smiled at Quan Jiu ambiguously: "The boy is quite handsome, little sister, you are so lucky."
Quan Jiu picked up his chopsticks, but didn't move his mouth. He shook his head and pretended to sigh:
"Alas... handsome men are all fickle. I'm so worried every day, afraid that one day when I open my eyes, my man will be seduced away by a vixen."
Si Jinnian was about to eat noodles, but when he heard her words, he stopped eating and glanced at her coldly.
Who is the fickle one?
It's Kong Manqing, Li Yang, and Xu Danbin again. She has so many people in her heart, and now she has a reason to turn the tables on him?
The proprietress stopped and looked at Si Jinnian with a half-believing and half-doubting look:
"This handsome man is indeed very popular..."
Especially in the past two years, after the advocacy of reform and liberation, social atmosphere has become increasingly open, and the women in the dance halls have become more open-minded than each other.
Quan Jiu had an expression that said I was right: “Right.”
The proprietress's eyes suddenly became subtle when she looked at Si Jinnian.
Si Jinnian raised his hand and knocked on the table, saying in a calm tone:
"I hand over all my monthly salary to you. Isn't that enough?"
Quan Jiu's eyes widened: "???"
What's going on?
The proprietress was first stunned by Si Jinnian's magnetic and deep voice. She was stunned for a few seconds before she understood the meaning of his words. Her gaze towards Quan Jiu also became subtle:
"Little sister, your husband has handed over his salary, you should be satisfied, right? You should know that there are not many good men who love their wives like this in the whole Jincheng..."
Quan Jiu: “…”
Awesome Si Jinnian.
It would be a shame not to enter the entertainment industry.
The proprietress thought the couple was arguing and kept muttering, trying to stop them.
"Little sister, you're still young. When you reach my age, you'll know how rare it is to have a man who pays you back. You should cherish your man..."
Si Jinnian nodded in agreement: "Indeed, you must cherish me well."
Quan Jiu: “???”
She was shocked by Si Jinnian's shamelessness. This bastard was really good at fooling people. When did he hand over his salary to her?
She waved her hand and interrupted the boss lady:
"You misunderstood, he is not my man yet."
The proprietress clearly didn't believe it: "They're still arguing..."
Quan Jiu: "He's really not my man. I still have a fiancé who refuses to break off the engagement. Strictly speaking, he's my adulterer."
Seeing her serious expression, the boss lady's face became even stranger...
Young people nowadays really know how to have fun.
She didn't believe that Quan Jiu had an adulterer, and just thought it was just a playful prank between the couple.
"If you don't believe me, ask him."
Quan Jiu raised his chin towards Si Jinnian's position.
Si Jinnian moved as usual, nodded slowly, and calmly admitted:
"I was indeed scumbag."
Lady Boss: “…”
She was speechless as she stared at Quan Jiu. She had a thousand things to say but didn't know how to start. Finally, she sighed softly, patted her shoulder, and said with great emotion.
"Women's mouths are truly deceitful."
…
Quan Jiu walked out of the noodle shop steadily, despite the proprietress's condemning gaze, and headed towards the Commander's Mansion.
"Why are you still lying?"
Si Jinnian knew she was talking about the salary handover:
"I originally planned to give it to you when I proposed marriage, but I didn't expect..."
He stopped there and didn't continue.
Quan Jiu heard his subtext -
I just wanted to show my loyalty, but I didn't expect that you would turn the tables and throw dirty water on me.
She touched the tip of her nose guiltily and tugged at Si Jinnian's arm:
"...But I see you're quite happy being an adulterer."
Si Jinnian put his arm around her waist and, ignoring the people on the street, kissed her directly on the lips:
“It’s really exciting.”
Quan Jiu pushed his face away as he leaned closer: "No, there are people everywhere..."
Si Jinnian remained unmoved. He turned around to glance at the passersby who were peeping at the two of them. His eyes were cold and stern, and he said confidently:
"Have you ever seen a man and a woman having an affair?"
When passersby were stared at by him, they were so scared that they ran away immediately.
Si Jinnian retracted his gaze and said calmly:
"Okay, the person is gone."
Quan Jiu: "..."
A role model for our generation.
A man who is so self-righteous and at ease as an adulterer, and who is even more impressive than the main wife, is definitely a rare gem in the history of the Republic of China.
Si Jinnian continued to hold her in his arms as they walked back. Quan Jiu was silent for a moment, then suddenly thought of a serious question—
"Si Jinnian, why have I never heard you mention your parents?"
She had been in the Commander's Mansion for so long, but had never met Si Jinnian's elders. Even when Fan Sheng proposed a marriage, he had not met other people from the Si family.
It was as if in the entire Si family, there was only Si Jinnian from beginning to end.
Si Jinnian pursed his lips and remained silent for a while, still not saying anything, but the aura around him became a little colder.
Quan Jiu raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Can’t mention parents?
She thought about it carefully and found that there was no rumor in the city that Si Jinnian and his parents were not in harmony.
Si Jinnian obviously didn't want to mention this matter, so he just held her hand tightly:
"Hurry up, it's time to go back."
…
Quan Jiu originally thought that the matter about Si's parents had come to an end, but she didn't expect that when she went out at noon that day and was about to go to the hospital to see Kong Manqing, she had just gotten off the car at the hospital gate when a black military red flag car stopped steadily at the hospital gate.
The car door was opened, and the middle-aged man in the car had a dignified look and sat upright. He was wearing a military green uniform and had more medals hanging on his chest than Si Jinnian.
Looking at the man's similar features to Si Jinnian, Quan Jiu probably guessed the identity of the visitor.
"Ms. Liu, our Si Ling wants to talk to you."
Although the man standing at the door responsible for opening the door was not wearing a green military uniform, his posture was straight and his spirit in every gesture was obviously due to the disciplined team.
Quan Jiu nodded without any hesitation:
"good."
…
A quiet cafe.
The man sat opposite Quan Jiu. Quan Jiu looked around for a while and found that the man was just like Si Jinnian when he went out. There were many guards lurking around him, and they all had bulging things on their waists.
She sensed that the person coming was not kind, but she still decided to use courtesy before force:
"What would you like to drink?"
The man hadn't spoken a word since he sat down, but just watched Quan Jiu's every move with his sharp eagle eyes.
“No need.”
Quan Jiu was stunned for a second, then he understood.
People of their status would definitely not drink anything from outside when they go out.
She nodded and ordered herself an iced coffee.
