Chapter 123 It turns out that a thief's guilty conscience is real
It was nearly ten o'clock when assistant Xiao Wang arrived at the scene on the back of a motorcycle, carrying some bags in his hands, which were full of coats and shoes that he had bought on the spur of the moment.
"Boss Xiaozi, there are no taxis in this place."
The streets are full of motorcycles, and taxi-hailing apps are no more effective than an outstretched hand.
You can't get a car even if you pay for the software, but you can park several motorcycles by just stretching out your hand.
"It's okay. You don't need to issue a ticket for the trip these days. Just write down the approximate number and I'll round it up for you."
When she and Qin Yuhuan went up the mountain in the afternoon, their shoes and clothes were soaked, and the two of them almost swam in the rain to persevere.
"Take a motorcycle taxi to find Xiao Xue (the driver) and ask him to get you a room. We don't need you here tonight, so go home from get off work."
The assistant responded, got on a motorcycle and left quickly.
Ziyi carried a lot of bags and took Qin Yuhuan from her aunt. "I asked my assistant to buy two sets of light and warm clothes. Go to the car to change. I'll wait for you outside."
Qin Yuhuan was not as afraid of the cold as Ziyi. She stared with her eyes fixed and pulled Ziyi into the car after Ziyi opened the door.
Posture:?
"Xiao Zi, we can change together. No need to be shy. I don't mind." Qin Yuhuan took the clothes out of the bag, looked at the size, and gave one set to Ziyi. She found that Ziyi had been staring at her blankly since she got in the car, looking a little silly. She curled her lips and said, "Or... do you mind?"
"I..." Ziyi avoided Qin Yuhuan's eyes, "It doesn't matter."
"Change it quickly, your hands are cold."
Qin Yuhuan felt extremely guilty towards Ziyi. Ziyi didn't have to endure all this with her. They had less than five hours of rest each day, but Ziyi only comforted her and took care of her emotions without even a single complaint.
As if to prove that he "didn't mind", Qin Yuhuan took off his shirt first, pretending to be calm and calm as he changed his wet clothes in front of Ziyi.
Ziyi really thought that Qin Yuhuan's heart was full of pureness. In contrast, the twists and turns that suddenly occurred to her seemed to blaspheme this place where one should focus on one thing.
She felt ashamed and sorry for her thoughts, and changed her clothes as quickly as possible. When she came to her senses, she found that Qin Yuhuan seemed to be staring at her in a daze.
Posture: ...
"you……"
"I didn't see anything." Qin Yuhuan looked at his nose and his heart, pretending to be a very serious person.
Posture: ...
"Isn't this a bit of a cover-up?"
Qin Yuhuan covered her face in pain, "It turns out that a guilty conscience is real. No wonder this phrase has been passed down."
Posture: ...
A light laugh echoed in the quiet car. "Should I feel honored? It means my body can also attract my sister."
"Ziyi, some emotions and feelings are all-round and cannot be discussed simply by leaving out the body or the spirit." Qin Yuhuan said it with certainty, but after she finished speaking, she quickly opened the car door and ran away.
Ziyi pondered for a long time in the car, and said to herself: "Does this mean that her feelings for me are both physical and spiritual? She likes my soul as well as my body?"
Is this what it means...
Qin Yuhuan sometimes speaks in a very tactful way, and it takes people time to figure out what he means.
The night grew darker and it rained for several times in a row. The temperature kept dropping. My aunt and several brothers and sisters were playing cards and eating melon seeds in a makeshift shed. Occasionally, someone would go to the coffin to burn incense and paper.
Incense and candles must not be extinguished all night, and must be replaced when they are almost finished.
Ziyi got out of the car and originally wanted to meet up with Qin Yuhuan, but she was stopped by her eldest sister just after taking a step.
"Xiaozi, thank you for coming here with Huanhuan. Is it hard for her to be alone outside?" The eldest sister seemed to want to pull Ziyi aside to chat.
She nodded, "You're welcome, sister. We're all friends, it's the way it should be."
"I want to ask, when Huanhuan is outside..." The elder sister frowned and paused, "Did he behave in an extreme way or handle things with low emotional intelligence?"
Ziyi was confused by these words, "How could it be, Xiao Qin has a very high EQ, and he always behaves appropriately outside, why would he ask such a question?"
"Oh, didn't we want her to get married earlier? But she said she didn't want to get married. There was no room for negotiation. How can we say she doesn't want to get married? She is alone now." The eldest sister sighed, "My mother and auntie all want Huanhuan to quit her job in Jincheng and return to Changping. We will help her find someone in the system so that she can get married, have a family, and settle down."
Ziyi nodded in agreement with her elder sister, "I see. Xiao Qin is fine at this age. She is still a child in Jincheng. Are you urging her to get married now? Moreover, both her parents are gone, and her brother has disappeared without a trace. This means that she has no one in her family. If she meets a bad person, will anyone help her?"
The eldest sister was about to say that they were all her maternal family, but Ziyi didn't give her the chance. "Other people who get married take care of their parents-in-law together. In Xiaoqin's case, getting married means she is completely tied to her husband's family. There is no one in her natal family who needs her to take care of her. After giving birth and confinement, there is no one to take care of her. If something happens, relatives may not be able to come in time. Everyone has their own lives to live. There are so many cases of domestic violence nowadays. It is understandable that she doesn't want to get married. Sister, you are older than the rest of us and have more experience than us. Take a look, isn't this the truth?"
If Ziyi had directly refuted, the eldest sister would have really come up with a lot of words to educate her, but what Ziyi said... did make sense.
Ziyi continued, "As far as I know, the per capita income in Changping is only 3,000 yuan, and the demand for manpower is basically for factory assembly line workers or low-level clerks. Xiao Qin studied various majors, and it is basically difficult to find a suitable job here. She quit her job and changed jobs, and her salary was reduced. This loss is real. And you also want her to repair the house for Qin Yushu. It will cost 50,000 yuan to repair the house. 3,000 yuan, minus the expenses, it will take more than one to two years to save money. In Jincheng, she doesn't even need five months."
Sister:......
She sighed helplessly, "It is said that there are many smart businessmen in Jincheng. I feel much more at ease knowing that Huanhuan has a friend like you by her side. My sister has a very hard life."
"I'm not being smart, sister. Marriage is not a career that one has to complete throughout their life." Looking into the distance, Qin Yuhuan was hugging her aunt and crying. Her eyes gradually became soft, and even her voice was, "Xiao Qin has the life she wants. She doesn't have a good family, so at least she should have a complete life of her own. Sister, I know you are all doing this for her own good and caring about her. I will take care of her in Jincheng, you can rest assured about that."
