Chapter 027.

Both froze, and in the end it was Jen who spoke first.

Zhen Zhen smiled a little and said, “Back, dinner is ready, get ready to eat.”

After saying that, she immediately went to the kitchen, put the rolled out noodles into the hot pot, boiled for a few minutes and then fished out.

After cooking, she took out two bowls of thin noodles, poured hot oil over them, added the sauce she had prepared, and sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions on top.

After taking a bath, Mr. Huai Ming went back to his room.

He entered the room and closed the door, propped his palms on the edge of the writing table, lowered his eyebrows, closed his eyes and held his breath, suppressing the desire that had risen abruptly.

He disliked this damn uncontrollable feeling, it was very annoying.

***

When Zhen Zhen brought the noodles to the table, Serving Huai Ming just came out of the room.

Zhen Zhen sat down with him at the table with a soft smile in her eyes, picking up her chopsticks and handing them to him with a sweet expression.

“Thank you.” Servant Huai Ming did not look at her, reaching out to take the chopsticks and directly buried his head to eat.

Looking at his face and behavior, Zhen Zhen naturally felt the seriousness and coldness of his body as well as the low air pressure.

Just now, when she came back to the door and met his eyes for a moment, she thought that her behavior had worked.

But now, looking at Shi Huaiming’s attitude, she felt that she had overthought things.

Not only did overthinking not work, he seemed to dislike it.

Zhen Zhen put away the smile on her face, and also pinched her chopsticks and lowered her head to eat.

After adjusting for a while, she curved the corners of her mouth again and wanted to speak to Servant Huai Ming.

But before the words came out of her mouth, Shi Huai Ming first said, “Let’s talk about it after dinner.”

The words he wanted to say were blocked.

Zhen Zhen swallowed her words.

She lowered her head to eat again, and after the corners of her mouth fell, her heart slowly sank.

After finishing her meal, she followed Shui Huaiming to his room and sat down.

Servant Huai Ming flipped through her workbook and asked her afterward, “What did you do in the past five days?”

A very familiar scene, Zhen Zhen knew she was going to get a lecture.

In five days, she had only read and written her homework on the first day, and she hadn’t touched it for the next four days.

The five-day assignment couldn’t be completed in one day, so she didn’t do most of the homework left by Servant Huai Ming.

When she was criticized and lectured before, Zhen Zhen would try to explain a few sentences.

But today, she suddenly didn’t want to say a word.

She lowered her head and remained silent.

Seeing her like this, Servant Huai Ming asked again, “Why don’t you say anything?”

Zhen Zhen pursed her lips slightly and spoke, “Went out to play, did my hair and bought clothes and shoes and groceries.”

Servant Huai Ming looked at her with a sullen gaze, “Are you trying to curry favor with me in such a pandering manner? Do you think I’ll be ingratiated by you in such a way? Who taught you to use color to please men?”

Zhen Zhen lowered her head and didn’t say anything, biting her lip in death.

Servant Huai Ming added another sentence, “Unthinking, arrogant and lazy.”

Zhen Zhen still lowered her head and didn’t say anything, and her eyes became wet.

Seeing that she looked like she was about to cry, Servant Huai Ming held his breath and didn’t continue.

He adjusted to lighten his tone and spoke again a moment later, “Go back and change out of these clothes.”

Hearing this, Jen immediately got up and went back.

Returning to her room and closing the door, she sat down at the writing desk, reached for the toilet paper, and wiped the perfumed powder and lipstick from her face bit by bit in the mirror.

Alone by herself, she could no longer control it, and tears rolled out of her eyes.

The toilet paper was stained with the water from the tears that rolled out, mixed with the eyebrow powder and lipstick, and became a dirty mess.

Jen cried without making a sound as she wiped.

Wiping her face clean, she took down her hairpin and removed her hair style, then grabbed her clothes and went to the restroom to freshen up.

After freshening up and returning to her room to sit down, she rubbed her hair bit by bit with a dry towel with red eyes.

When her hair was almost dry, she directly pulled the light and lay down on the bed to sleep.

There was certainly no sleepiness.

She blinked in the darkness, her mind thinking of many things.

Thinking of those aggravating and sad moments, tears flowed out of the corners of her eyes again, wetting the pillow a little.

Sometimes she tried to sniffle twice to hold it in.

As a result, the more you hold back, the more sad you feel, so you pursed your lips and cried even more.

Of course no matter what kind of crying she did, she didn’t make a sound.

Serving Huai Ming in his own room mindless anything.

Seeing that Zhen Zhen washed up and went back to her own house and didn’t come back to him, he sat down at the table and waited for a while.

After waiting for ten minutes and not waiting for Zhen Zhen, he got up and went to the door of Zhen Zhen’s room.

He raised his hand to knock on the door, but stopped when he was about to drop it.

He stood outside the door for a while, but in the end did not drop his hand.

Taking a deep breath, he withdrew his hand and went back to his house.

He went into his room and sat down.

His mind was even more irritated than it had been earlier.

He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, taking another deep breath.

***

Getting up on time in the morning, Servant Huai Ming did not see Zhen Zhen as usual.

He went to morning training on time and on schedule, and when he came back from morning training, he still didn’t see Zhen Zhen.

He went to the cafeteria to get breakfast and came back, knocked on Zhen Zhen’s room door to ask her to come out to eat, Zhen Zhen did not make a sound.

I didn’t get Zhen Zhen to come out, so I had to go eat by myself.

After eating, he again came to the door of Zhen Zhen’s room and said, “I’m going to class, I’ll warm the rice for you in the pot.”

Zhen Zhen lay on the bed without making a sound.

Only when she heard Squire Huai Ming go out and leave did she get up.

When she got up, she went to the closet to find a set of old clothes she had brought from the countryside and put them on.

After dressing and washing her hair, she suddenly heard a knock on the door and heard Wu Dafeng’s voice: “Zhen Zhen, are you home? Zhen Zhen, I’m your sister-in-law Dafeng.”

Zhen Zhen organized her expression and went to the door to open it.

When Wu Dafeng saw her, she said, “I’m at home preparing to make noodles, but I realized that I forgot to leave the old noodles last time. I don’t have anywhere else to borrow it, do you have any at home?”

“Yes.” Zhen Zhen nodded.

Wu Dafeng said, “Then you lend it to me for a while, I’ll return it to you when I’m done.”

Zhen Zhen turned around and Wu Dafeng followed her inside.

After crossing the threshold, Wu Dafeng said, “Why are you wearing the old clothes you brought from the countryside again today?”

Zhen Zhen went to the kitchen to get the old noodles did not answer, she continued to say, “I’m still used to seeing you dressed like this, this is the right way to dress, we country people, should be simple and plain.”

Zhen Zhen never answered her.

She took the noodle bowl with the old noodles out and sent it to Wu Dafeng, saying, “Sister-in-law, take it and use it, you don’t have to return it.”

Wu Dafeng reached out and took the bowl, “What’s the point of being polite, I’ll definitely return it to you, if not you won’t make pancakes anymore?”

Zhen Zhen let out a hmmm, “No more pancakes.”

At this point, Wu Dafeng realized that there was something wrong with Zhen Zhen.

She stared at Zhen Zhen for a while and said with an ouch, “What’s wrong with you? Why are your eyes red like this? They are swollen.”

It looks like she has been wronged by something and cried all night without sleep.

Zhen Zhen gently sniffing, “Nothing, just light the stove to smoke.”

When the stove is not lit, it is indeed smoky, and can make people’s eyes water, Wu Dafeng did not think too much about it, and Zhen Zhen gossiped for a few more words, and then took the old noodle and went home.

After Wu Dafeng left, Zhen Zhen turned to the kitchen, took out the breakfast in the aluminum pot and ate it.

After eating and washing the dishes, she sealed the stove and extinguished the fire in it before returning to her room to pack her bags.

She hadn’t brought much with her when she arrived and packed quickly.

After packing her packages, she sat on the edge of her bed for a while longer.

Five minutes later.

She carried her packages out the door.

***

Servant Huai Ming was distracted all morning sitting in the classroom.

This was the first time Zhen Zhen had shown such strong emotions towards him in the long time she had been in town, and he was disturbed in his heart.

Seeing that he had been distracted, He Shuo came over to him between classes and teased him in a low voice, ”I say, did you get over excited last night? You still can’t get over it?” We are all men, it’s our first time, we all understand.

After Zhen Zhen and Wen left last night, Li Shuang told him that Zhen Zhen had prepared a big surprise for Huai Ming.

Li Shuang was absolutely confident that the last night would be a success for Jenny and Mr. Huaiming,” he said.

Servant Huai Ming was not in the mood to joke with He Shuo.

He returned his cold face and voice, “What’s there to be excited about?”

He Shuo’s voice lowered, “Damn, what are you pretending for? Little Cotton dressed up like that, you can’t stand it?”

His mind flashed back to last night’s appearance of Zhen Zhen wearing a cheongsam.

Serving Huai Ming gently inhaled a breath, still tensed his face, not picking up He Shuo’s words again.

Seeing that he didn’t say anything, He Shuo said to him again, “Just pretend as hard as you can.”

This state of distraction for Servant Huai Ming lasted until class ended at noon.

He went home with Old Zhou He Shuo, still absent-minded and not saying much on the way.

When they reached home, they parted ways and each of the three went back to their own homes.

Serving Huai Ming arrived home and opened the door to enter the house, ready for Zhen Zhen to come over and greet him, but he hung up his hat Zhen Zhen did not come out. Not only did Zhen Zhen not come out, but there was also no usual smell of food in the house.

Could it be that she hadn’t gotten up yet?

Servant Huai Ming walked into the house and went directly to the door of Zhen Zhen’s room.

He raised his hand and knocked twice on the door, calling out twice, “Zhen Zhen.”

After waiting for a while there was still no answer.

Servant Huai Ming hesitated for a moment and reached out to open the door of the room, looking in, only to see that the bedding was folded very neatly, and there was no one sleeping on it.

Serving Huai Ming froze and wondered for a while, and then went to look elsewhere.

The door to the restroom was open, and there was no one inside, nor in the kitchen.

But as he turned to go out of the kitchen, he acutely noticed that the stove that had been boiling hot water before, the fire went out.

Staring at the stove for a moment, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

Servant Huai Ming turned around and went to his room, still not seeing Zhen Zhen, but sweeping his gaze over, he saw a note written in pencil on his writing desk.

He reached out and picked up the note, only to see five words written on it – I’m going back to the countryside.

Looking at Jen’s handwriting on the note, the heart in his chest pounded heavily.

Serving Huai Ming took the note and went out, went next door and knocked on the door of Li Shuang’s house.

He was a bit unconvinced that Zhen Zhen would go back to the countryside.

Seeing He Shuo come to open the door, he opened his mouth and asked, “Has Li Shuang come back yet?”

He Shuo looked at him with a dark and heavy face and returned with a puzzled, “I’m back, what’s wrong?”

Li Shuang heard the sound in the house and walked over with her stomach.

She stretched her head to look at Shi Huai Ming outside the door and asked him, “Why are you looking for me?”

Servant Huai Ming asked her, “Is Zhen Zhen not here with you?”

Li Shuang said, “No, I didn’t see her today, and she didn’t come to me.”

Zhen Zhen didn’t know many people here.

Seeing that she wasn’t here with Li Shuang, Servant Huai Ming went back to Wu Dafeng’s house.

When he arrived at Wu Dafeng’s house, he knocked twice and went straight in. He greeted Lao Zhou briefly and asked Wu Dafeng, “Sister-in-law, is Zhen Zhen with you?”

Hearing this, Wu Dafeng directly nagged: “No ah, she recently with me not close, long ago not much to find me to talk. I know she dislikes my nagging and doesn’t like to listen to me. She ah, are faster than the city people are like the city people, go out which still have the appearance of the countryside ……”

Said thought of something, suddenly looked at the service Huai Ming, “But I went to your home in the morning, she wore the clothes brought before the countryside, her eyes are still red, look swollen, she said it is the point of the stove smoked ……”.

Finished thinking for a moment, “Oh, I asked her to borrow the old noodles, she also said that there is no need to return it, she will not pancake in the future.”

The stove is sealed, the old noodles don’t want it.

Servant Huai Ming’s heart slammed to the bottom of the cold lake.

He stood and froze for a while, then uttered, “Alright, I know.”

After saying this, he turned around and walked away.

Wu Dafeng’s eyes were puzzled as he looked at Old Zhou and asked, “What’s going on here?”

Old Zhou didn’t know, he only knew that his stomach was starving and urged Wu Dafeng, “Hurry up and serve the rice.”

Wu Dafeng turned around and went to the kitchen to get some rice, muttering again, “It must be a fight between the two couples.”

After the muttering, she again raised her voice and continued to chatter: “I have long said, Zhen Zhen and Li Shuang to learn that way is not good, the service Huai Ming sooner or later will not be able to stand her like that, which man can stand the woman like that ah ……”.

The old week is still the same: “You less care about other people’s business.”

***

Seeing Shi Huai Ming go to Wu Dafeng’s house, Li Shuang pulled He Shuo stood outside the door and did not go back.

She naturally saw that something was wrong, and as she watched Shi Huai Ming come back from Wu Da Feng’s house, she called out to him and asked, “What’s wrong? Little Cotton Man has disappeared?”

He Shuo followed and asked, “What’s the situation?”

According to normal circumstances, he and Zhen Zhen should be in love today.

Servant Huai Ming did not answer, Li Shuang’s eyes were sharp and saw that he had been holding a note in his hand.

She walked over to Shi Huai Ming and nonchalantly ripped the note out of his hand.

Picking up the note and reading it, she suddenly frowned.

After reading it she raised her head to look at Servant Huai Ming, “Little Cotton went back to the countryside?”

He Shuo also saw the words of the note and was equally puzzled, “What are you two doing?”

After saying this, he felt that it wasn’t the right thing to ask and re-asked, “No, what did you do?”

Originally, he thought that Servant Huai Ming was hiding his excitement halfway through the morning and was pretending to be serious.

As a result, he didn’t expect that he really wasn’t pretending at all.

Li Shuang furrowed her brows and stared at Servant Huai Ming for a while.

A moment later she asked out loud, “Did you scold her?”

Servant Huai Ming glanced at Li Shuang and remained silent.

Li Shuang naturally understood what he meant at once.

Li Shuang’s anger flared up and she wrinkled her eyebrows and scolded, “You’re sick, aren’t you?”

Zhen Zhen’s preparation of a surprise for Shui Huai Ming was something that she had put a lot of effort into, so she was more able to empathize with it.

He Shuo pulled on Li Shuang, trying to get her to collect herself.

Li Shuang, however, waved her hand to block away He Shuo and looked at Shi Huai Ming and continued to speak vehemently, “In order to celebrate your birthday, she stayed up until midnight every day and made a pair of shoes for you stitch by stitch, in order to give you a surprise, Wen and I looked for this and that, and we were able to put together a little something to dress up Little Cotton a little bit, so how could she have done it wrong?”

Hearing the word birthday, Squire Huai Ming was stunned.

He looked at Li Shuang, listening to her words, his brows knit up little by little.

Li Shuang couldn’t contain her emotions, and didn’t care about He Shuo stopping her, she looked at Shui Huai Ming and continued to curse: “Shui Huai Ming, you’re just sick! If you really don’t like her, you really can’t see her, you simply go and get divorced, you go and find your college student! What’s so great about you, what are you dragging for?”

Li Shuang this flurry of anger, the Wu Dafeng hooked out.

He Shuo was afraid that it would be difficult to end the situation, he was busy pulling Li Shuang towards the house, and while pulling her towards the door, he was embarrassed to say to Shui Huai Ming: “I’m sorry, she’s emotionally unstable because she’s pregnant.”

Li Shuang was pulled and hugged by He Shuo and dragged her home and closed the door, she was still angry and punched He Shuo’s chest.

He Shuo exaggeratedly let out an ouch, “You’re going to whack me to death?”

Li Shuang: “I deserve to die! Damn it!”

He Shuo was wronged, “How did I deserve to die?”

Li Shuang was so angry that she couldn’t stop herself, “You play well with him, don’t let me scold him, all of them are no good!”

Outside Wu Dafeng did not catch the action, heart itchy dead.

Old Zhou loudly reprimanded her in the house, she saw Li Shuang was pulled away by He Shuo, so she also carried the bowl back home.

Into the house with a bowl and sat down, and muttered: “I do not know what noise, did not hear.”

Old Zhou impatiently tapped the bowl on the table, “Eat!”
