Chapter 136 Very Attentive
Wen Xi found a place to wash off the dirty makeup on her face, revealing her originally clean and fair face. She then re-braided her hair and rushed to the county hospital carrying a backpack.
It was not even five o'clock at this time, and even in the more prosperous county town, it was very quiet. Not to mention people, not even a ghost could be seen on the streets.
Arriving at the tube-shaped building where He Chenan lived, Wen Xi tiptoed carefully up the stairs. The corridor was not quiet because snoring sounds could be heard from some of the rooms.
Arriving at the door of He Chenan's dormitory, Wen Xi reached out and knocked gently. He Chenan's dormitory was next to the stairs, with neighbors on one side and the stairs on the other. Wen Xi was afraid of waking up the people next door, so he knocked very softly.
After a while, Wenxi heard a "click" sound coming from the room. It was the sound of turning on the light. The lights of this era were all pulled by ropes, and there would be a "click" sound when the rope was pulled.
Soon, the door opened, and He Chenan appeared in front of Wen Xi with a messy hair. When he saw Wen Xi, the originally dazed He Chenan instantly woke up. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief. When he was sure that the person standing in front of him was Wen Xi, he quickly reached out and pulled her in, then closed the door of the dormitory.
"Xiaoxi, why are you here?" He Chenan held Wen Xi's hand in surprise. His hands were big and broad, with thin calluses on them, and still had the warmth from when he just woke up.
He Chenan was wearing pajamas and his hair was still messy, which actually made him look cute. Wen Xi inexplicably wanted to reach out and rub his hair, but she held back.
Although they are friends, they are not very familiar with each other yet.
"He Chenan, are you so happy to see me?" Wen Xi looked up at He Chenan and asked with amusement.
He Chenan took the backpack off Wenxi's back and placed it by the door. He then put his hands on Wenxi's shoulders and looked at her with burning eyes. "Who would be unhappy to see someone they like? I want to see you every day."
Wen Xi felt inexplicably happy after hearing this, but she would not be easily conquered. In her previous life, Shen Jiaojiao fell under Lu Xiaoyun's smooth talk and failed to keep her bottom line. With such a precedent, how could she let herself make a mistake?
Wen Xi poked He Chenan's chest with her hand in a proud manner, "You are such a smooth talker. Tell me the truth. How many girls have you deceived with this trick before?"
"No, this is absolutely not the case. I have never had any experience in dating before. Before I met you, I had never liked other women. This is the first time I like someone. I still have a lot of things I don't understand. I hope you can give me more advice in the future, because I want to get along well with you. My ultimate goal is to marry you."
After hearing He Chenan's words, Wen Xi's mind went blank.
marry?
Have you started thinking about marriage so early?
Although I feel a little proud inside, the time we have spent together is very short and we don't know each other well, so it is indeed too early to think about getting married now.
"He Chenan, I'm here to buy meat for the team. I have to go and queue up. If I don't buy the meat, everyone will definitely blame me." Wen Xi said as they were about to leave.
"You can buy meat in town, but you went all the way to the county to buy meat. So you took the opportunity to buy meat and came to see me, right? Xiaoxi, I'm so happy!" He Chenan said while holding Wenxi's hand, "I'll go find you after I have a rest, okay? When I think about not being able to see you for a while in the future, I feel like I've been scratched by a cat. I feel very uncomfortable."
"No." No matter how pitiful she looked, Wen Xi still rejected his proposal. If he really went to the countryside to find her, it would probably cause quite a stir, so forget it!
Wen Xi reached out and rubbed his cheek, "He Chenan, you work hard and take a good rest when you are free. If I am free, I will come to the county to find you. Also, don't write to me every day, okay? Concentrate on your work."
"It's still early, go take a nap."
Wen Xi picked up the backpack and walked out of He Chenan's dormitory with light steps. She felt that she had been chatting with He Chenan for a long time, but when she looked at the sky, it was not yet bright. The whole building was still the same as when she came, with no other sound except snoring.
After successfully coming out of the tube building, Wen Xi's pounding heart slowly calmed down. Then she walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative. These public institutions were all on the most prosperous street and were very easy to find.
When Wenxi arrived, there were already a lot of people queuing up, so she didn't waste any time and quickly ran to the back of the line and stood in line.
When it was Wenxi's turn, she directly asked for two sets of pig offal, four pig trotters, and twenty kilograms of bones. Although they were very heavy, she dragged them to the side and put them into the system warehouse while covering them with an old cloth, leaving only one set of pig offal outside.
Afterwards, Wenxi left with the backpack on her back. It was only a little after six o'clock and the bus had not yet started operating. She had no way of taking the bus back. She could only wait until she was out of the county town and then take out her electric bicycle and ride it. It would probably take less than an hour to reach the countryside.
The plan was perfect, but no one expected a Cheng Yaojin to show up halfway. Wen Xi had just walked less than a hundred meters away when he felt someone trying to snatch his backpack. He turned around suddenly and saw it was He Chenan.
He Chenan took off the backpack, tied it to the rear seat of the bicycle, reached out and picked Wen Xi up, placed him on the crossbar in front, and rode away quickly on his bicycle.
Even if they were seen by those who woke up early, it would be too late for them to say anything because He Chenan had already ridden away on his bicycle.
"He Chenan, why are you here?" Wen Xi asked.
"I'll take you back. There are no cars now and it's too far for you to walk back." He Chenan said.
"But this will delay your work." Wen Xi turned her head and looked at He Chenan with disapproval.
"It's okay. I'll ride faster and take you to town and come back. I shouldn't be late. Is that okay?" He Chenan looked down at Wen Xi and asked.
Wen Xi estimated the time and thought that He Chenan should be able to get to the hospital before eight o'clock. Although he would miss the morning meeting, he would not be late for work, so he nodded and said, "This is just the first time. It won't happen again. Otherwise, I will never come to see you again!"
Wen Xi was deeply moved. If it were someone else, they would have gone back to bed and taken a nap, but He Chenan hurriedly got up to see her off.
It's not a matter of a few minutes or a few steps, but a distance of several hours.
From this we can see that he is really sincere towards her and cares about her very much.
