58: Chapter 57 His Tenderness, Limited-Ti Availability 58: Chapter 57 His Tenderness, Limited-Ti Availability Wang Shui, carrying a basket on her back, followed behind Su Yuncheng like a child who had done sothing wrong, moving forward slowly.
Lin Nianhe could clearly see the expression on her face as if she was gritting her teeth, wishing she could deal with Su Yuncheng harshly.
She probably guessed where the two of them had t.
As she got closer, a smile spread across Su Yuncheng’s lips as he looked at Lin Nianhe and said, “Uncle Liu told that you ca early, went to buy sothing?”
Lin Nianhe glanced at her empty hands: “Yes, I bought so air from the town, it’s free and doesn’t require tickets.”
Su Yuncheng laughed lightly, still staring at her.
Lin Nianhe openly confessed, “I was originally planning to go to the Cooperative Society, but on the way, I ran into Principal Wu and went to her house to sit for a while.
She wants to establish a primary school in Ten Miles Team and we talked for a long ti.”
After pondering for a mont, Su Yuncheng asked, “The auntie who was staying to your right in the hospital?”
“Uh-huh.” Lin Nianhe couldn’t help but marvel at Su Yuncheng’s mory.
He had only t Principal Wu once, rely greeting her when they parted, and yet he rembered her.
Su Yuncheng, hearing her speak so orderly, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Today, the mont he saw Wang Shui in the black market, he beca nervous, afraid that he might see Lin Nianhe in so corner.
Now knowing that she was just visiting and chatting, his heart finally settled down.
Lin Nianhe reached out and took Wang Shui’s arm, patting her shoulder as if to comfort her: “Let’s go, I’ll treat you two to a al.”
Wang Shui: “…” She didn’t want to eat.
Lin Nianhe didn’t give her a chance to refuse and pulled her into the State-Owned Restaurant.
At this ti, the State-Owned Restaurant did not have a wide variety of dishes, but the ingredients used were substantial, and the master chef was also skilled.
Lin Nianhe ordered three dishes: a braised pork, a pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms, and a dish of shredded potatoes, along with three bowls of rice.
Not long after, a waiter called them to get their dishes.
Su Yuncheng stood up to serve the dishes, and Lin Nianhe did not stop him, taking the opportunity to ask Wang Shui, “What exactly happened?
Were you caught?”
Wang Shui knew she couldn’t hide her secret when she saw Lin Nianhe’s shrewd eyes and simply admitted, “Almost!”
What could she do if she didn’t admit it?
As soon as she turned around, Su Yuncheng would tell Lin Nianhe.
“Although he didn’t catch , he said that in the future I’m not allowed to set foot in there!
If he sees there again, even if I ran away, he would go to the Educated Youth Corps and drag out.”
Wang Shui was seething with rage.
She had misunderstood Su Yuncheng.
She always thought Su Yuncheng was a very gentle person, never expecting that his gentleness, like the at buns at the State-Owned Restaurant, had a limited offer.
“Ti”—Lin Nianhe was there.
Lin Nianhe pondered over Wang Shui’s words, then said softly after a mont of contemplation, “He recently ntioned to that it was chaotic over there and could lead to trouble.”
Wang Shui caught her breath and took a gulp of water from the cup on the table before saying, “I know, I had a feeling sothing was off today.”
If she had not felt sothing abnormal, she would not have obediently followed Su Yuncheng to leave.
During the twenty or so days in Ten Miles Team, she hadn’t learned much else, but a stubbornly combative attitude had rooted itself in her mind.
“Tch, a seasoned hand, huh.” Lin Nianhe looked at her with a side-eye, “My apologies.”
So that’s why, she thought, Wang Shui dared to rest for half a month each ti; she had other ways to make money.
As they were talking, Su Yuncheng ca back with the dishes.
Lin Nianhe handed the chopsticks to Wang Shui: “Co on, let’s eat.”
She also passed a pair of chopsticks to Su Yuncheng: “Brother Yuncheng, eat more.”
“Okay.”
Su Yuncheng actually wanted to talk to her about the five yuan business, but with Wang Shui there, he had to swallow it back.
This matter had been weighing on his mind for many days, but with his busy work, he had no ti to visit her.
All in all, it had been almost half a month since they had seen each other.
Su Yuncheng ate his al, glancing occasionally at Lin Nianhe.
Seeing that her cheeks were still tender and she hadn’t lost weight, his worry finally eased a bit.
Wang Shui initially didn’t have much of an appetite, but after eating a piece of braised pork, she threw all her worries to the back of her head, turning her anger into an appetite.
They finished the al thoroughly, and Su Yuncheng asked Lin Nianhe, “Do you have enough ration tickets for the Cooperative Society?
I have so at ho, should I bring them for you?”
“No need,” Lin Nianhe shook her head, “I brought a lot from ho, and haven’t used much yet.”
“That’s good,” Su Yuncheng nodded, “I have things to do this afternoon, you should go back early, and be careful on the way.”
“Okay.” Lin Nianhe waved to him, “Goodbye.”
“Goodbye.”
Wang Shui always felt that when Su Yuncheng left, he gave her a warning look.
It seed to say: Don’t lead Lin Nianhe astray.
Wang Shui’s head ached.
“Let’s go, to the Cooperative Society.” Wang Shui said listlessly.
“Okay…”
Lin Nianhe was about to leave when she caught a glimpse of the State-Owned Restaurant staff carrying out two large stear baskets.
The savory aroma of at buns perated the air.
She dashed over in an instant and secured the first place in line.
“Sister Shui, co quick!”
She waved Wang Shui over.
Wang Shui approached, puzzled, and asked her, “Why are you buying buns now?”
“I forgot to bring a lunchbox, just getting a couple of buns for Sister Lan.” Lin Nianhe explained as she handed over a money ticket, “I want four at buns.”
After all, they always cooked special als; they couldn’t forget about Wen Lan!
The server, expressionless, accepted the money ticket and wrapped four buns in greased paper for Lin Nianhe.
“Phew…
it’s so hot!”
Lin Nianhe juggled the package between her hands before placing it in Wang Shui’s basket.
Wang Shui: “…”
She was still a sick patient with a sprained ankle; was it really okay to have her carry things?
Lin Nianhe showed no sympathy for Wang Shui’s injured state and dragged her to the Cooperative Society, symbolically buying ten pounds of rice and a pound of glutinous rice strips for snacks.
Wang Shui didn’t buy anything but kept giving Lin Nianhe a mournful look.
Lin Nianhe was so creeped out by her gaze that she couldn’t help but say, “Please don’t escalate personal behavior to the level of neighbors!
Sister Shui, don’t always look at like that, it’s not like I’m the one stopping you, right?”
“I know it’s not you,” Wang Shui replied, “but you seem easier to bully.”
Lin Nianhe: “…?”
Heh, she clearly knew nothing about her own strength.
Lin Nianhe was pondering whether to teach her a direct lesson or to trick her indirectly when her face was suddenly pinched by Wang Shui.
Lin Nianhe: “…!”
Wang Shui: “Tsk, really soft.”
Lin Nianhe slapped her hand away and rolled her eyes at her, “Stop touching , are you forcing to take action?”
Wang Shui: “Oh, quite fierce.”
Lin Nianhe: “…”
Is it that she can no longer wield a knife, or has Wang Shui beco too cocky?
Does she honestly think I wouldn’t hit an invalid?
Lin Nianhe narrowed her eyes and reached for the soft flesh on Wang Shui’s waist with her mischievous little hand.
“Hey?
Hahaha…
I was wrong, I was wrong, stop it!”
“Tsk, quite a soft waist.”
“Hahaha…
If you tickle again, I’m going to hit you!”
“Oh, quite fierce.”
Lin Nianhe was never one to hold a grudge, she would settle it on the spot.
Having teased Wang Shui, Lin Nianhe felt refreshed and clear-headed.
Wang Shui, however, laughed until she was out of breath and, mustering her strength, headed back to the Educated Youth Corps, collapsing onto the little stool by the door and carelessly throwing her basket to the side.
“Crash—”
The greased paper package and the bright red dates rolled out of the basket in a scramble, scattering on the ground.
Lin Nianhe’s step towards Wang Shui abruptly turned, and she headed east instead.
“Stop right there!”
