It was snowing heavily, and soon, Si Lu's head and shoulders were covered with snowflakes. With the beauty in his arms, he didn't feel cold at all, but felt full of strength.

"What did you say to my uncle? Why does he look unhappy to me?"

"A lot."

Si Lu didn't say anything specific, but Jiang Yan guessed that the two of them must have exchanged a lot of information about herself, especially in the past few years, she and Yang Hongying had a lot of hard times in the Shi family, and Si Lu knew that.

That's why the atmosphere at the dinner table was so weird, and neither of them spoke.

What are you talking about! They didn't participate in the past three years, and there is no way to make up for it.

"By the way, let me tell you something."

"what?"

"Guess who I saw today?" Jiang Yan raised her little face and blinked at Si Lu, as if waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

Si Lu felt his heart tighten for some reason, "Who?" A bad premonition came to his mind.

"Hmph, that woman you went shopping with in the department store."

As expected, what you fear will come true.

"Jiang Yiyi?"

Jiang Yan's mind moved slightly, "Jiang Yiyi? Is her last name also Jiang?"

"Yes."

Jiang Yan's thoughts turned away, and a strange feeling lingered in her heart, unable to be shaken off.

"what happened?"

"My aunt and I went to buy groceries and met this Jiang Yiyi on the way. She chased me and shouted, and then she stood in front of me, as if she had seen a ghost."

Si Lu reached out and pinched Jiang Yan's cheek, "Speak properly."

"Oh, it's like being struck by lightning." Jiang Yan said, "Don't you understand?"

"and then?"

"Then we asked her if she was okay, and guess what she said?"

"How would I know."

Jiang Yan recalled the scene at that time and suddenly smiled, "Her eyes were staring at me, as if she was looking through me to see another person."

Si Lu also started to think about this matter, and it sounded a bit weird no matter how he listened to it.

Jiang Yiyi had never seen Jiang Yan before, but when she saw her, she looked as if she had been struck by lightning. Why?

Shock?

Yanyan said that Jiang Yiyi seemed to be looking at another person through her. Who was that person? Did he look like Yanyan?

"She said she recognized the wrong person." Jiang Yan said, "She must have ulterior motives. You should pay attention to her and don't let her ruin your good deeds."

How could Si Lu not understand the double meaning of Jiang Yan's words?

"Who dares to ruin my good deeds? I'll kill him." He lowered his head, kissed Jiang Yan lightly, and whispered: "Yanyan, after meeting uncle, we will be legitimate. When will you take me to meet our father, grandfather and grandmother? I want to marry you home as soon as possible."

Jiang Yan giggled, and the two of them leaned against each other intimately, their lips intertwined.

Jiang Chao was already worried about Jiang Yan. Why hadn't he come back yet after such a long time downstairs? Did he have to send that boy home before coming back?

He walked to the window irritably, glanced downstairs inadvertently, and his eyes widened instantly.

Jiang Chao didn't care about the cold weather, he pushed open the window and yelled at the two people who were eating passionately downstairs, "Hey, you little bastards, go home quickly."

Jiang Yan was so embarrassed that she quickly pushed Si Lu away and got out of his arms. "Go away and come back tomorrow, or my uncle will come downstairs and skin you alive."

Si Lu didn't expect to be caught red-handed. He quickly put on his coat, took Jiang Yan and sent him to the door of the guesthouse.

"You go in first."

Jiang Yan was afraid that Jiang Chao would really kill him, so he hurried in.

Si Lu saw her go upstairs, then he buttoned his clothes, tied his scarf around his neck again, and strode towards the rented house.

It was snowing heavily and the weather was cold. Si Lu walked for more than half an hour before returning to the courtyard.

Pan Yuan opened the door for him and said, "Come in quickly."

Si Lu entered the yard, Pan Yuan closed the door, and the two of them went into the house together.

There was hot water on the stove, and Pan Yuan poured a cup for Si Lu, "Captain, drink some hot water to warm yourself up!"

Si Lu took off his coat, shook off the snowflakes on it, took the cup of water, and thanked Pan Yuan.

When the others heard the noise, they came out of the house.

"team leader."

"team leader."

The only one missing was Jiang Yiyi.

This is not her style. Everyone can see how much she admires Si Lu. She always finds opportunities to get close to Si Lu no matter if she has something to do or not. Now that Si Lu has returned in the snow, shouldn't she come out to show her concern? Why is she shrinking back?

Bai Ling thought about it and decided to speak up for Jiang Yiyi, "Um, Captain, Jiang Yiyi is feeling a little uncomfortable, so..."

"unimportant."

Si Lu's words made everyone feel different. It seemed that the captain really didn't take Jiang Yiyi seriously. Pan Yuan laughed secretly, while Bai Ling felt embarrassed.

I feel embarrassed for Jiang Yiyi. It's so embarrassing that she can't even get the upper hand even though she's trying to please someone else.

"Everyone, take a rest first! It's snowing so heavily that we won't be able to start work for a while. We can talk about it tomorrow if there's anything."

Since the person in charge said so, everyone naturally stopped talking and went back to their rooms to sleep.

Si Lu lived in a separate small room with a tin barrel stove in the room, so it was not cold at all.

He lay on the iron bed, thinking of Jiang Yiyi's abnormal behavior today, and couldn't help but think deeply.

It seems really unusual. What is Jiang Yiyi up to? Why did she run into Yanyan?

Was it really a chance encounter? Or had she been eyeing Yanyan for a long time?

At this time, on the other side, inside the guesthouse.

The atmosphere in the room was awkward. Jiang Yan looked secretly at Jiang Chao like a child who had done something wrong.

"You are very courageous, aren't you? Now you are cowering and acting like a coward."

"Hey, uncle, don't be angry."

"You..." Jiang Chao didn't know what to say. He was so disappointed! The good cabbage was about to be taken away.

"You said, you are a grown-up girl..." Jiang Chao was in a dilemma, he couldn't explain it in a profound way, nor in a superficial way.

"What's wrong with the eldest girl?"

"You have to respect yourself..."

"Cough..." Li Yuejin immediately cleared his cough twice and glared at Jiang Chao fiercely. As his uncle, how could he say anything?

Jiang Chao is very majestic outside, but he has no say in anything at home. With just a look from Li Yuejin, he immediately becomes obedient.

Who hasn’t been young? Back then, he was injured in the battlefield and had to recuperate in the rear for more than three months. These three months also led to the love story of Jiang Chao and Li Yuejin.

Twenty years ago, Jiang Chao was a wounded soldier who chased her to confess his love even on crutches. At first, he thought he was too reserved and couldn't face the problems in his relationship. Now that the situation has changed, he thinks his child doesn't respect himself and doesn't love himself.

Is it possible for an uncle like him to say such things?

"Yanyan, don't listen to your uncle's nonsense. He's drunk and can't control his words. But your uncle is doing this for your own good. We believe that you are a child who knows your limits. I think Xiao Siren is a good guy. He's tall and big. He's much better than that dark-skinned wounded soldier!"
