Wind Chaser: Rebirth in the 18th Year of the Republic of China

Shen Jinzhen pretended to be angry, "What are you thinking? How could I possibly tell you this? If I tell you, my brother might tell everyone about my childhood."

Although she did not do anything outrageous when she was a child, she would not eat for a day out of spite, and would scare away those who bullied her friends in tears in order to help their weaker peers.

I would also secretly catch some small insects and watch them crawl, and would secretly paint the piano with colorful pencils while practicing the piano.

These things were too embarrassing, and some of them were not in keeping with her current status as a lady. It would be embarrassing to talk about them.

Wei Ruolai took in all of Shen Jinzhen's innocent and shy expression. He thought that Miss Shen must have been very naughty when she was little. He was really curious about what Miss Shen had done when she was little.

"Then I won't listen to you, sir. I wonder what Miss Shen wants to tell me?"

He listened carefully to what Shen Jinzhen was going to say next.

"I just want to tell you that I asked Auntie to make shrimp today. You are in for a treat."

She found this in the small refrigerator after walking around the kitchen.

Wei Ruolai was delighted at first, but soon his mood became depressed. He had promised to go back early to help his neighbors rebuild their homes, and he was afraid that Miss Shen's kindness would be let down.

"Can't stay home for dinner? It doesn't matter. I'll ask Auntie to make this dish first and put it in an iron lunch box for you to take home."

Noticing that Wei Ruolai looked strange, Shen Jinzhen called his aunt and asked her to do it now.

Wei Ruolai didn't expect Miss Shen to make a special portion for him. He felt warm inside, "Miss Shen, it's really too much trouble. I can eat anything."

He grew up in a poor family, and used to just make do with staple food and pickles for a meal. Now, even though he has moved to a big city, he will not forget the simple meals of his hometown just because he has seen delicious food.

"You are still young and growing, so you should eat more seafood to nourish your body. If you really feel bad, just think of it as a thank you for helping me just now."

Thinking that Wei Ruolai would soon break up with his brother and that he might not find a good reason to invite him home in the future, Shen Jinzhen felt uncomfortable and wanted to treat him better.

Hearing Shen Jinzhen's words, Wei Ruolai nodded slightly, but he was still a little concerned about his age.

Miss Shen kept mentioning that she was young. Didn't she like younger men? It seemed that he should dress more maturely in the future.

Shen Jinzhen did not notice Wei Ruolai's psychological changes. She noticed that there was another box on the table, but it was wrapped in oil paper and she could not see clearly what was inside.

Noticing Miss Shen's gaze, Wei Ruolai also turned around to look, and then he remembered that it was something he brought for her, so he quickly took it and placed it in front of Shen Jinzhen.

"Ms. Shen, this is the roasted sweet potato I bought on the road. You guys seem to call it yam. They are both the same kind of food. They are good for the stomach and delicious. You can try it."

Because of the war, there are not many people setting up stalls outside, but some people still have to do so to make a living, and this stall selling roasted sweet potatoes happens to be one of them.

"it is good."

Shen Jinzhen did not refuse this kindness. He picked it up, broke it in half, and found it tasted really good.

She handed the other half to Wei Ruolai and said, "It's a long way to go back, so you can eat some sweet potatoes to fill your stomach."

Wei Ruolai was stunned and took the half sweet potato from Miss Shen.

His palm half covered her cool fingertips, then retracted his hand after taking the sweet potato. While eating the sweet potato, he secretly observed Shen Jinzhen's expression out of the corner of his eye.
