Just as Bai An was about to walk out, Lu Jinan grabbed her hand and asked, "It's so dark now, do you really not need me to accompany you?"
"No need, brother." Bai An took a look at the current situation, "You should stay home and help pack your luggage. I'll be back soon."
Lu Jinan looked at Bai An's receding back with some worry, fearing that the group of people had not yet gone far away and that Bai An would be in danger.
Lu Demin looked at Lu Jinan and patted his shoulder comfortingly, "Da Zhuang's house is not far from here, don't worry, pack your things first."
With Lu Demin's comfort, Lu Jinan felt relieved. He turned around and saw Cui Ju still sitting on the ground, feeling sad. Her face was a little cold. He raised his hand and pulled her up, saying, "Pack your things first. It won't be too late to feel sad after you've packed up."
Cui Ju looked at Lu Jinan in surprise. Under Lu Jinan's cold gaze, she was so scared that she held back her tears. She could only nod stupidly and followed Wanqing to pack up the household items.
Bai An walked on the small path in front of his house. Looking at the dark environment around him, he felt a little timid in his heart, as if something would suddenly rush towards him.
Just as she was making up stories in her mind, a sound of light footsteps appeared behind her.
Bai An paused, she was not sure whether it was an illusion or reality. She was about to stop and listen carefully to the sound, but she found that the footsteps were getting faster and faster, and the sound was getting louder and louder.
It's real, not an illusion.
...
...
At this moment, Bai An had only one thought in his mind.
run!
"Bai An, why are you running?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Bai An frowned and turned to look forward.
"Lin Zhixia?" Bai An called out hesitantly, looking at the blurry figure in front of him.
Lin Zhixia shrugged and took a few steps forward. After noticing Bai An retreating, she stopped and asked with a smile, "What are you afraid of?"
Bai An ignored him, but was a little confused, "What are you doing here?" Bai An looked at the surrounding scenery under the moonlight and said, "I remember this place is not close to your home, don't tell me you are just passing by."
Lin Zhixia was amused by Bai An's defensive look, "My sister is going to follow you, so of course I have to come and see her."
"Don't worry, I will definitely treat Aster well."
"Of course I know, but I'm just curious." Lin Zhixia walked up to Bai An, bent down and looked into her eyes, and asked softly: "At this time, every household can't afford to eat, so children are just a burden to them. Are you so kind to accept Cui Ju?"
Bai An looked at Lin Zhixia in front of him speechlessly, took a few steps back, and kept a distance from him, "What else? Let Cui Ju wait to die alone at home?"
"Die?" Lin Zhixia frowned and said, "If you're talking about the fact that she helped you today, she won't die because of it. She will just marry a man she doesn't like and stay at home to have children like every other girl here."
"Isn't that more terrifying than death?"
Bai An ignored the man and turned to leave.
Lin Zhixia quickly walked in front of her. Looking at Bai An's expressionless face, she felt as if her heart was being grabbed by someone, causing her to ache. "What about you?"
"What?"
"So you don't have anything you want to tell me?"
Bai An looked at Lin Zhixia who was blocking the way in front of him, thought for a moment, and said, "I will help you take good care of Cui Ju. As long as I have something to eat, she won't be left without a bite."
Just as Bai An finished speaking and wanted to avoid him, Lin Zhixia grabbed her hand and put a bracelet on her wrist.
"I'll leave this with you first. When I leave the village, I'll come back to find you. This will serve as a keepsake."
Bai An couldn't see the bracelet on his wrist clearly, he could only feel its coolness and its appearance of being very valuable.
"What are you doing for me? What if I break it?" Bai An said as he put down the food in his arms and reached out to take off the bracelet.
Lin Zhixia grabbed Bai An's restless hands and said seriously: "This is my family's heirloom. You must take good care of it. This is what my mother left for her daughter-in-law. I will come to you for it later."
Bai An's expression became even more speechless. What the hell was going on?
Just when Bai An looked up and wanted to say something, suddenly something soft and warm touched his face.
Lin Zhixia took advantage of Bai An's dazed state and kissed him a few more times. Before Bai An could react, she let go of his hand, her face burning hot.
"Bai An, you must remember me."
Bai An seemed to have suddenly realized something. He raised his hand and touched his face. He looked at Lin Zhixia's back not far away and shouted, "Who should remember you? I will never let you go next time I see you."
Listening to Bai An's powerful voice, Lin Zhixia couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth, and she touched her lips involuntarily, as if the touch just now was still lingering.
After scolding Lin Zhixia, Bai An felt like he was sweating and hot all over, especially his face, which felt like it could cook an egg.
He raised his hands to fan himself, then picked up the food on the ground and gave it to Da Zhuang.
After what happened just now, Bai An is no longer afraid of dim environments and runs even faster.
After a while, they arrived at Da Zhuang's house.
Bai An knocked on the door embarrassedly, and then a burst of chaotic footsteps came from inside.
"Hello, Auntie." Bai An greeted Da Zhuang's mother politely, "Can I go in and see Da Zhuang?"
"Well." Da Zhuang's mother was a little reluctant to have any contact with Bai An, so she could only casually say, "Da Zhuang is busy now."
Bai An saw Da Zhuang's mother's concerns and said, "No one will know I'm here."
He handed the food in his hand to Da Zhuang's mother, and then continued: "Our family will leave tonight. This is specially for you. Thank you Da Zhuang for helping us today."
Da Zhuang's mother was flattered and held the bag of grain in her arms. After seeing the food inside, she found that there was much more and better quality than what was sent out.
"Leaving so soon?" Da Zhuang's mother enthusiastically pulled Bai An in, "Da Zhuang is still sleeping, I'll wake him up now."
Bai An nodded and said, "I'll just say goodbye to Da Zhuang and leave."
"Yeah, your family must be very busy right now." Da Zhuang said as he opened Da Zhuang's door.
As soon as the door was opened, Da Zhuang was seen lying on the bed, groaning and groaning.
"Da Zhuang, Bai An is here to see you."
"who?"
When Da Zhuang looked up, he saw Bai An standing at the door, and he was so surprised that he wanted to stand up to greet him.
But as soon as I moved, I felt a sharp pain in my buttocks.
