Chapter 149: Chapter 149 Auntie Cannot Tolerate
After the talk, Aunt Xia’s anger had pretty much dissipated.
“Forget it, I’ll go bring your uncle back ho! Otherwise, as an injured man, who knows when he’ll be able to walk back!”
Xia Chuyi snickered and said, “Yeah, yeah, go ahead, otherwise if Uncle walks back on his own, Aunt, you’ll definitely die of worry!”
“You child!” Aunt Xia scolded.
Xia Chuyi’s head received a knock.
“Ouch!” she exclaid softly, this ti, Aunt Xia truly hadn’t held back.
Yet Xia Chuyi smiled even more joyously.
Aunt was right, affection, is sothing built through spending ti together.
In the end, no one from the Zhao family attended Xia Lan’s wedding, and the Xia Family, without even setting off a string of firecrackers, simply married Xia Lan off.
In the blink of an eye, it was the tenth day of the first lunar month, the date she had set for her return trip had arrived.
According to the almanac, the twelfth day of the first lunar month this year was a particularly auspicious day for all undertakings, and she planned to officially open for business on that day.
On the day she returned to the city, she encountered He Qing on the bus.
He happened to be on his way back to the military base.
For so reason, Xia Lan hadn’t co to see him off.
Xia Chuyi took just one glance at him, then as if he didn’t exist, she found a seat far away from him, sat down, and closed her eyes to rest.
She hadn’t planned on talking to this man, but who would have thought that upon disembarking, He Qing suddenly approached her.
“Xia Chuyi, give up already, I will not fall for you,” he said disdainfully, standing before her with a haughty tone, “Moreover, I’m already married and will never betray my family and my spouse.”
“No matter what you do, I won’t be tempted by you!”
His tone was truly as righteous as it could get.
“What the hell are you talking about?” Xia Chuyi felt like spitting out a mouthful of old blood, “, tempt you?”
He Qing looked her up and down, snorted, and said, “Dressing up all fancy like that, finding out when I’m returning to the base, and following to the county town, isn’t it because you like ?”
Perhaps it was due to eating a lot of space food recently, Xia Chuyi’s skin had beco even more fair and tender, with lips red and teeth white like applied makeup.
“Xia Chuyi, just give up, I will absolutely never like you.” He Qing emphasized again with a deliberate stress on his words, “Even if you make yourself look prettier, I still won’t fancy you.”
His words were utterly decisive, yet his eyes couldn’t help but steal glances at Xia Chuyi now and then.
It was hard to say exactly what kind of response he was anticipating.
Xia Chuyi felt amused inside, truly, she could tolerate this charade no longer!
She mimicked him, scanning him from head to toe.
Now He Qing, dressed in his military uniform, looked quite the part, yet his self-assuming expression was the exact sa as it would be decades later.
“He Qing, did you forget to look in the mirror before leaving ho?” Xia Chuyi casually asked, looking at him sideways.
“What did you say?” He Qing was clearly taken aback.
“I said, did you forget to look in the mirror when you left ho!” Xia Chuyi said slowly, coolly.
“Dressed in that green military uniform, you think you’re the cutest person around? The green toads in the fields would disagree.”
“Having a…” Her gaze briefly swept below his waist.
“You think you’re a hero? That any woman would throw herself at you? Toads with two legs are hard to find, but n with three legs are a di a dozen.”
“I urge you to take a good look at yourself before you leave the house each ti, see if you’re worthy of wearing that uniform, if you’re worthy of being a man!”
Her speech beca faster and faster, and the He Qing opposite her couldn’t get a word in edgewise!
