Chapter 693 Auntie, who injured you?
Chapter 693 Auntie, who injured you?
Jing Youxiang punched Lu Yao in the chest:
"It's all your fault! You had to run into me, you had to take me home, and now that I've fallen in love with you, you still can't marry me!"
"..."
Even with Lu Yao's eloquence, he was speechless at this moment.
Is this girl being unreasonable? Did I insist on taking you home, or did you force me to do it?
However, seeing how heartbroken she was, I couldn't argue with her and could only silently endure it.
Reaching out to stroke the back of her head:
"Youxiang, try to think more positively. Look, Zheng Wenli has already fallen for someone else..."
"Don't give me that! I just miss my brother. Don't think I still love you!"
Jing Youxiang pushed Lu Yao away.
He sat up straight, wiped his eyes, and gave a wry smile:
"I remember that time you took me home, my brother even tried to beat you up. Sigh, he's dead, my dad's in jail, and there's no one to protect me anymore."
Upon hearing this, tears welled up in her big eyes again.
Seeing her pitiful state, Lu Yao quickly comforted her:
"I'm here, Yuka. I'll protect you."
"You're always making me angry. I just wanted you to hug me, and you wouldn't even let me. If you were really good to me... just spoil me one last time, and I promise I'll never look for you again. Luckily, no one's around here..."
Zheng Wenli is still lying in the ditch.
Even if Lu Yao is a womanizer, he shouldn't draw his gun at this time.
"Don't be silly, this is the main road... go back, wait for another chance."
"No, I'll give it to you now."
Jing Youxiang is going to take off her clothes.
Lu Yao was at his wit's end.
She could only whisper, "Youxiang, don't be angry, and don't tell anyone."
"What's wrong?"
"Zheng Wenli is in the ditch."
"what?"
Startled, Jing Youxiang turned around to look.
Lu Yao grabbed him:
"Don't look, it will only make him more embarrassed."
Lu Yao briefly and quickly told Jing Youxiang what had just happened in a low voice.
Jing Youxiang's heart skipped a beat, and she reached out to pinch Lu Yao's arm:
"You rascal, why didn't you say so earlier? Now I'm rambling on and on. Ugh, how embarrassing!"
"Are you afraid of ruining your image in front of Zheng Wenli?"
"I'm not afraid. Let him think what he wants."
Lu Yao advised her, "You should go back first, otherwise he'll freeze to death in the ditch and never come up. I'll persuade him to leave first, and then I'll go back."
"Oh well."
Jing Youxiang was at her wit's end.
With Zheng Wenli around, even having a heart-to-heart talk with Lu Yao is impossible.
He got out of the car, pushed the cart forward, and left without saying a word.
Zheng Wenli climbed out of the ditch, looked at Jing Youxiang who had gone far away, and couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing Lu Yao get out of the car, he went over and punched him.
Lu Yao easily dodged, while Zheng Wenli almost tripped and fell.
Lu Yao laughed and said, "What are you doing? I didn't mean to pee on you."
"It's not about peeing! I'm going to beat you up, you lewd, vulgar, shameless bastard!"
"Why do you say that, brother?"
"Hmph! You have Xiao Meizi, why are you still seducing You Xiang! If you're going to be with You Xiang, then don't ruin Xiao Meizi's life. Why are you two-timing her!"
"No, Yuka and I are friends."
"Do you think I'm stupid? Can't I see she likes you? You scoundrel!"
Lu Yao was also angered by his scolding:
"What do you care who likes me or who doesn't? Hurry up and go home, or I'll get your mother to come and drag you back."
Lu Yao pulled the cart horizontally, and Zheng Wenli's battery died again.
Suddenly her knees buckled, and she knelt before Lu Yao, hugging his legs and bursting into tears.
"Lu Yao, I'm begging you, please give Youxiang to me. Aren't you good enough with Xiao Meizi?"
Lu Yao was truly helpless:
"Get up and talk! You're a grown man, why are you crying so much? Get up, I promise you."
"Huh? You mean it?"
Zheng Wenli pulled Lu Yao's pants and got up.
Lu Yao nodded: "I promise you, I'll treat Xiao Meizi well for the rest of my life and won't seduce Jing Youxiang. But whether she likes you or not is her business, and I can't interfere. OK or not? Shall we chat?"
Zheng Wenli nodded: "If you interfere, Xiao Meizi might even marry me. You absolutely mustn't do anything bad this time, or I'll never forgive you, even in death."
Lu Yao nodded and nudged him, "Okay, let's go home now. Don't make things so creepy. If you like, I'll say I'll come over to your house another day, have your mom cook a couple of dishes, and we'll have a drink."
"Hmph, I hope you keep your word!"
After Zheng Wenli finished speaking, he lifted the bicycle out of the ditch, got on, and rode away.
Lu Yao watched his retreating figure and couldn't help but sigh.
The only person who dares to act so arrogantly like me, Lu Yao, is Zheng Wenli!
It's all because you're Zheng Shuang's father!
Lu Yao drove back to the village.
I had promised Jing Youxiang that I would go to the clinic to see her when I got back, so I passed by my house without going home.
The first call was received at the health center.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Shumei and her mother chatting there.
Everyone was very welcoming when Lu Yao came in.
Make room for him in the center.
"What are you guys talking about?"
Lu Yao sat down.
Look at Jing Youxiang.
Jing Youxiang is lying on the kang (a heated brick bed).
She rested her chin on her hands, her thin sweater revealing half of her snow-white waist.
Her little bottom was sticking up.
It's such a cute pose; you can't tell she was upset just now.
"We're listening to Auntie tell a story."
Lu Yao looked at Fan Suzhen: "What story are you going to tell?"
"I'm talking about the hardships I endured as a child before liberation. I even worked as a maid for a landlord, enduring their humiliation just to have enough to eat. Thankfully, liberation came, and the Party gave us a new life, allowing the poor to live with dignity!"
Lu Yao nodded: "That's true. People should be grateful. Without the great leader, there would be no new China. Without the new China, the people would have lived in misery for thousands of years."
Jing Youxiang poked Lu Yao's buttocks with one finger:
"Don't interrupt, Auntie was saying that the landlord wanted to take her as his concubine. Auntie was only thirteen years old then."
Fan Suzhen was chatting with a few girls, talking about her childhood, but when Lu Yao, a grown man, joined them, she became too shy to say some things.
"Alright, you young people chat, I'm going back to sleep. We'll talk another day."
Lu Yao stood up: "It's dark outside, Auntie, let me take you home."
"No, no need."
Yuan Shumei was quite happy to see how kind Lu Yao was to her mother.
"Mom, let Lu Yao take you home. I'll stay here tonight with Sister Yuejuan and Youxiang."
Fan Suzhen then accepted the offer.
When Lu Yao saw her off, Jing Youxiang called out to her:
"Lu Yao, come back after you drop off Auntie."
"Um."
Lu Yao escorted Fan Suzhen out and they headed towards Ding Dahu's house.
It's not far, just a few dozen meters away.
It was a bit dark, and my eyes weren't used to it when I first came out, so I walked rather slowly.
Lu Yao suddenly asked:
"Auntie, who injured you?"
"Ah? Where are you hurt... No, no."
Lu Yao reached out and took Fan Suzhen's hand: "Auntie, don't be afraid. Shumei and I are very close. If anything happens to you, I will do my best to help you. Just tell me."
Fan Suzhen awkwardly withdrew her hand:
"Hey, it's all family stuff. Your uncle and I had a little disagreement. Every couple has their ups and downs, it'll be fine after a bit of a fight."
Lu Yao smiled slightly: "You're wronging your uncle."
"Um?"
"As far as I know, even if Uncle Yuan were to hit you, he wouldn't hit you this hard."
Fan Suzhen remained silent, looking at Lu Yao.
I was thinking, "Did you even see I was injured? Why did you say it was serious?"
It was indeed quite serious; she came to the clinic to get anti-inflammatory medication.
Since Lu Yao asked this question, I couldn't avoid answering it directly:
"Your uncle was drunk that day and went a bit overboard, but it's all in the past now. It's alright."
"oh."
Lu Yao nodded, then suddenly asked:
"Auntie, how is your relationship with Grandpa Yuan Tianchu? I remember you said last time that Uncle Yuan was always suppressed by the old man..."
Fan Suzhen was startled: "Huh? Did I say that?"
