I asked you to save the villain, not to take him as your wife!

After washing up, Ye Lan sat on a chair in the yard, feeling that this life was truly a sin!

I don’t know how long I will have to carry a bucket to take a bath like this.

The future is truly dark.

It is said that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

I had never experienced it before, so I didn't think it was a big deal.

Now that he had experienced it personally, Ye Lan really agreed with this statement.

When he first came into this world, he felt completely lost as to where to start.

"Oh..." Ye Lan couldn't help sighing.

People, don’t be too curious.

It was because of his damn curiosity that he was led by the system to this godforsaken place.

Now he has seen the real 1970s and 1980s.

But we still have to endure the hard times.

If his friends knew what he was going through, they would probably laugh at him.

The only person who wouldn't laugh at him is probably his good cousin.

But his cousin didn't laugh at him; he simply enjoyed seeing him suffer.

Who made his cousin think that they, his cousins, were a group of arrogant and extravagant playboys?

"Oh..." Ye Lan sighed again.

Bitter!

It’s really bitter!

As he was still sighing, a beam of light came from outside the yard and hit Ye Lan's face.

The light was not very strong, but Ye Lan still raised his hand to block his eyes.

As soon as his hand reached his eyes, the light source immediately moved away.

Ye Lan put down his hand and looked towards the light source, and saw a blurry figure at the gate of the yard.

"Chi Zhiqing?" Ye Lan called out uncertainly.

"Hmm." Chi Jingfan said softly from the door.

"Are you done with your work?" Ye Lan asked as he stood up.

"Yeah." Chi Jingfan said "Yeah" again.

Just when Ye Lan wanted to ask, "Can you only say 'hmm'?", Chi Jingfan spoke first.

"We are going to fish in the river. Do you want to go?" Chi Jingfan asked while standing at the gate of the yard.

"Fishing?" Ye Lan's voice was full of confusion.

"Yes." Chi Jingfan changed his response this time.

"Why did you suddenly think of going fishing? Who else is involved?" Ye Lan asked while thinking seriously.

If he followed them to catch fish, his bath would have been in vain.

But it's impossible not to go with him.

Chi Jingfan is a kid who has a bad relationship with water!

Could he let Chi Jingfan play in the water outside his sight without worrying about it?

That must be worrying!

"And Xu Zhiqing and others." Chi Jingfan answered subconsciously.

"Okay, wait for me to get the flashlight." Ye Lan finally decided to follow him.

When the time comes, he will just watch from the side and not go into the water.

"Okay, I'll go ask if anyone else wants to go." Chi Jingfan said as he stepped into the yard, apparently going to ask Ye Jing and the others.

"No need to ask, they are already asleep." Ye Lan spoke up to stop them.

Ye Lan really didn't know whether he slept or not.

But it is true that everyone went back to the room.

It’s pitch dark and the riverside is so dangerous.

If Ye Lan didn't know that her dissuasion was useless, she would have wanted to persuade Chi Jingfan not to go fishing.

If he calls a lot of people, wouldn't that make his job more difficult?

"Oh, okay." Chi Jingfan stopped immediately.

After Ye Lan returned to the room and got a flashlight, the two of them walked out of the yard together.

Chi Jingfan walked in front carrying a tin bucket, and Ye Lan followed closely behind him.

When Ye Lan saw the bucket in Chi Jingfan's hand, she understood everything.

Chi Jingfan's main purpose was to go back and get the bucket, and calling him along was probably just a coincidence.

It must be said that Ye Lan’s guess was not wrong at all.

Chi Jingfan did go back specifically to get the bucket.

If he hadn't been sighing in the yard, Chi Jingfan might not have called him.

The atmosphere was oddly quiet as the two of them made their way to the river.

Chi Jingfan is not as talkative as Xu Zhiqing, and he may not be willing to speak unless it is necessary.

And what about Ye Lan?

He wanted to chat with Chi Jingfan, but he didn't know what topic to start with.

His understanding of Chi Jingfan mainly came from the plot scenes shown to him by the system.

According to the plot scenes, it can be seen that apart from having a good-looking face, Chi Jingfan's personality is actually quite boring.

At least Ye Lan thought he was boring.

But to say that Chi Jingfan is an unattractive person is not true.

Chi Jingfan is serious about his work, and people who are serious about their work are the most handsome and beautiful!

Plus, Chi Jingfan is really handsome, and the two-way combination is actually very attractive.

It makes people want to tease him and see if he can talk more.

Ye Lan is no exception.

"Chi Zhiqing, when did you come to Zhaojiawan?" Ye Lan started the conversation casually.

"Last year." Chi Jingfan was walking in front and answered when he heard it.

It really is a case of every question being answered, but the content is as brief as possible.

"Oh." Ye Lan then asked, "Where is Chi Zhiqing from?"

"Beijing City." Chi Jingfan replied.

"You're from Beijing, so does Chi Zhiqing have any brothers or sisters?" Ye Lan continued to ask casually.

This time, Chi Jingfan finally did not answer immediately.

He stopped and turned his head: "Are you asking too many questions?"

Chi Jingfan frowned slightly, his tone very serious.

If someone else were here, they would probably just shut up.

But who made Ye Lan the one here?

"No." Ye Lan said with a smile.

"No." Chi Jingfan let out a long breath and answered unhappily.

"Oh..." Ye Lan dragged out the last syllable, her tone full of regret.

"What a pity." Ye Lan said, shaking his head.

Chi Jingfan: “…”

His temple twitched slightly, and his expression didn't seem to change much, but from his eyes, you could tell that he seemed to want to curse.

Chi Jingfan looked at Ye Lan quietly for a few seconds, his lips moved several times, but in the end he said nothing.

Just as he was about to turn around and ignore Ye Lan, Ye Lan spoke again: "Don't move!"

Chi Jingfan really wanted to ignore Ye Lan.

However, Ye Lan's tone this time was quite serious.

So after a pause, he still asked, "What's wrong?"

Ye Lan is definitely not playing any tricks this time.

His eyes passed over Chi Jingfan's shoulder and looked behind Chi Jingfan.

"You..." Ye Lan's voice was a little stiff at this moment: "Are you afraid of snakes?"

"Snake?" Chi Jingfan asked in confusion and turned his head.

Then I saw a large snake with yellow patterns on its body lying across the road about two meters away.

Chi Jingfan took one look and turned his head back: "You are afraid of snakes."

Chi Jingfan's tone was very affirmative.

"What's wrong with being afraid of snakes? Isn't it normal to be afraid of snakes?" Ye Lan controlled her voice so that it wouldn't tremble.

I didn't run away because Chi Jingfan was still here.

"Don't worry, this is a rat snake, it's not poisonous." Chi Jingfan said in a relaxed tone.
