At this time, when the two men approached the He family's yard, He Mu, who was eating with a bowl at the door, looked up and saw them.

"Boss Xiaoxue, why are you here?" He put down his bowl and stood up to greet her. "By the way, I just happened to have something to report to you."

"What's the matter? Tell me." Lin Xiaoxue asked.

He Mu scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "This, this is after get off work time, I won't disturb you."

He glanced behind Lin Xiaoxue and said, "It's rare for the third son of the Lu family to come back. I'm sorry to take up your time."

Lin Xiaoxue pulled Lu Jingting aside and said, "I can only trouble my dear husband to wait here for a while. He Mu must have some business to tell you. After all, there is money to be made."

When she mentioned money, her eyes sparkled and she looked like a money-grubber.

Lu Jingting couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I'll wait for you here."

As he said this, he took several steps back to ensure that he would not disturb her source of wealth.

Lin Xiaoxue ran over to continue talking to He Mu, and heard him say: "Boss, you know, I'm doing well in this business, and the products in our workshop are also selling well. Look, some of my relatives also want to sell the goods, but they don't have much. Can they join in?"

"Sure." Lin Xiaoxue agreed readily: "No matter how much, it can add up to a lot. Since he is your relative, this performance will count as your commission. As for how to ship the goods, you decide and just fill out the order when the time comes."

Anyway, everything is done according to the rules. Although most of the work is done by villagers from this village, it doesn't matter if there are more outsiders.

What's more, He Mu is now the sales champion of the workshop, so he must know when to do things.

"Thank you, boss. Actually, I have another idea..."

The two of them had a very pleasant chat.

At this moment, Lu Jingting, who was waiting in the distance, suddenly felt something strange, as if a pair of eyes were staring at him.

Liu Cuihua looked at Lu Jingting closely and couldn't help but wonder in her heart how this man could be so handsome.

He has an upright posture, broad shoulders, and every movement reveals his masculinity.

In her eyes, Lu Jingting is the great hero, and how can an ordinary woman like Lin Xiaoxue be worthy of him?

Just as Liu Cuihua was immersed in her fantasy, Lu Jingting suddenly turned around.

He frowned and his eyes fell on Liu Cuihua: "Do we know each other? Who are you?"

Liu Cuihua's heartbeat accelerated to the extreme.

She walked forward quickly with trembling hands, "Do you really not remember me?"

The voice was filled with a hint of nervousness and anticipation. "I am Liu Cuihua, the one you once had a blind date with."

Lu Jingting was silent for a moment, searching his memories for the blurry faces from that time.

He finally shook his head, "I can't remember."

“Oh…” Liu Cuihua was a little disappointed but did not give up, “No wonder, it’s been a while, it’s normal that you can’t remember.

But I was deeply impressed by you. After all, you are the only soldier in the area, and you are a battalion commander at that.”

She tried to attract more attention from Lu Jingting by praising him.

Lu Jingting maintained a polite but indifferent attitude: "Thank you for the compliment."

When I heard her subsequent questions about military work and vacation days, I felt very sad.

He frowned slightly: "Why are you asking these questions?"

Liu Cuihua realized that she might have asked too directly, and quickly changed the subject: "Oh, I don't mean anything else. Lin Xiaoxue and I are from the same village. If she has any problems in the future, I will report to you."

Lu Jingting's expression was cold and hard, and his tone was firm: "No need, the Lu family has a phone number, and the army also has a phone number. If there is really anything, just contact them directly."

There was no hesitation in his voice, and his attitude clearly rejected Liu Cuihua's "good intentions".

However, Liu Cuihua did not notice Lu Jingting's cold edge.

She chased after him, her voice filled with urgency: "Hey, Captain Lu, I have something else I want to ask you. I want to ask you about the process of joining the army... I have a younger brother who wants to join the army."

Lu Jingting stopped and said without turning his head: "Just serve in the military normally."

After saying that, he didn't say anything else. He ran over, took Lin Xiaoxue's hand, and quickened his pace to leave.

He sighed in his heart: talking to other women always made him feel uncomfortable, especially those like Liu Cuihua who were persistent and like a dog-skin plaster. It was really hard to get rid of them.

Lin Xiaoxue watched Liu Cuihua stumbling but never able to catch up, sneering in her heart.

How dare she snatch a man so blatantly!

Looking up at Lu Jingting, who looked a little embarrassed but still as handsome as ever, she pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "What did you talk about just now?"

"Are you jealous?" Lu Jingting smiled. "She didn't say anything important. She mentioned that she had been on a blind date with me, but I really have no impression of it. Since you mind these little things..."

He paused, "Then I won't talk to her next time."

Lin Xiaoxue smiled when she heard that, but didn't take it to heart.

"How could it be possible for someone else to snatch you away so easily? It's quite amusing to see how devoted she is to him." She thought calmly in her heart: How could this man be snatched away so easily?

Lin Xiaoxue smiled and shook his arm: "Okay, it's getting late, let's go home."

As soon as they stepped into the house, Lin Xiaoxue saw Su Guifen busy in the kitchen.

While she was boiling water, she gave her a meaningful smile.

"Xiaoxue, I've boiled two pots of hot water, go take a shower." The look seemed to hint at something, and Lin Xiaoxue's heart tightened slightly.

She couldn't help but blush, thinking that she really didn't want to be the girl who got it all in seconds.

But in the face of my sister-in-law's kindness, I could only nod and say, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Su Guifen had obviously made sufficient preparations. She placed a wooden basin in the empty room of the Lu family and changed the hot and cold water to the appropriate temperature.

"You've been tired all day, go take a shower and go to bed."

Lin Xiaoxue took her clothes reluctantly and went into the empty room.

At this time, Lu Jingting was standing outside the door, listening to these words, with an imperceptible blush on his face.

He knew that tonight was destined to be extraordinary.

Only after Lin Xiaoxue closed the door did Lu Jingting breathe a sigh of relief.

He quickly washed up and lay down on the bed waiting.

The bed was soft and comfortable, the sheets were clean and tidy, and everything exuded her fragrance.

Time seemed to become slow and heavy.

Lu Jingting closed his eyes and tried to rest but he couldn't calm down. His thoughts ran wildly like wild horses, wandering around that special scene.

Not long after, the sound of the door being pushed open interrupted his pretend sleep.

All I heard was Lin Xiaoxue muttering softly, "What a bad timing!"

Then I opened the drawer and looked around.

"What are you looking for?" Lu Jingting opened his deep eyes and came closer.

When he saw her take out the sanitary napkin from the drawer, his face, which had originally flushed with anticipation, suddenly turned stiff.
