They wanted you to divorce and leave, but you became a rich woman's dream man.

Chapter 122 Legs of an 18-year-old, absolutely full of collagen. (Seeking monthly votes)

Ye Xiaowei soon received a ride-hailing car.

Seeing that the journey was quite long, the driver asked curiously, "Young lady, are you going to such a far place?"

"Yes," Ye Xiaowei replied simply.

The driver glanced at the distance and saw it was about 40 kilometers, so he floored the accelerator.

Ye Xiaowei sat in the back seat, listening to English listening exercises.

Nearly an hour later, the driver stopped the car.

He said to Ye Xiaowei, "Alright, little girl, we've arrived."

Ye Xiaowei then came to her senses, thanked him, and got out of the car.

She looked at the country lanes and then walked toward Grandma Xu's old house according to the address.

Upon arriving at the specific address, Ye Xiaowei saw an old house.

The house's exterior walls are made of rough blue bricks, and after years of weathering, the surface is covered with moss and the marks of time.

The roof was covered with dark tiles, some of which were broken and exposed the soil underneath.

The door to the old house was simply locked with a padlock.

Ye Xiaowei took out the key and unlocked the lock.

open the door.

Upon entering the house, the courtyard was overgrown with weeds.

Upon entering the house, one finds only some old furniture.

Following Grandma Xu's suggestion, Ye Xiaowei walked to the bedside and reached under the bed.

soon.

She then found the amulet.

Ye Xiaowei then turned and left.

But as soon as I stepped outside, I found that it had started to rain heavily.

This was something she hadn't anticipated.

I touched my bag and realized I didn't bring an umbrella.

I searched the house for a while, but couldn't find the umbrella inside.

So she could only sit at the doorway, planning to go back after the rain stopped.

But as time went by, the rain did not lessen at all.

This made Ye Xiaowei even more anxious.

She picked up her phone, wanting to book a ride-hailing service.

But in this remote and impoverished place, how could anyone possibly take the order in such a short time?
Think of this.

Ye Xiaowei thought of her mother.

She wanted to call her mother.

But if her mother finds out that she didn't tell her about this trip in advance, she'll probably get a severe scolding.

Just thinking about my mother's incessant nagging...

Ye Xiaowei hesitated again.

With no one to confide in, she could only wait in anguish.

She even prepared for the worst, which was to spend the night in this old house.

Zhou Meiling was on her way to class, but she didn't forget to send Ye Xiaowei a message: "[Weiwei, are you back? It's raining.]"

Ye Xiaowei hesitated for a moment before finally replying: "I can't get a taxi. I'm still waiting here at the old house in the countryside."

Upon seeing this, Zhou Meiling immediately dialed a voice call for her: "Hey, Weiwei, are you still at the house in the countryside?"

"Hmm," Ye Xiaowei said, looking at the sky gradually darkening. She felt a little scared. "I can't get a taxi now, and I didn't bring an umbrella. It's several hundred meters from Grandma Xu's old house to the taxi stand at the village entrance."

"Really?" Zhou Meiling asked immediately, "Why don't you ask your mother if she can pick you up?"

"No, no need." Ye Xiaowei's face paled at the mention of her mother, and she quickly refused, "I can figure it out myself."

"Okay, I'll go to the classroom first, and we'll talk later."

"it is good."

Looking at her phone, which only had 20% battery left, and listening to the whistling wind around her, Ye Xiaowei felt a little scared.

She's now praying that the rain will stop soon so she can go to the village entrance to hail a taxi.

But after more than 10 minutes, the rain still showed no sign of stopping.

In a moment of haste...

Ye Xiaowei decided to put her bag on her head and run to the village entrance to hail a taxi.

Trot all the way.

The rain was hitting Ye Xiaowei's clothes.

It quickly became soaked.

Ye Xiaowei came to the base of a large tree.

Then I noticed a small shop at the entrance of the village, so I quickly bought an umbrella.

She wiped her hair and clothes with a tissue, constantly refreshing the status of her booked Didi ride on her phone.

Then the phone's battery level kept decreasing.

This made her even more anxious.

At the same time, Zhou Meiling arrived at the classroom.

As soon as she sat down, she sent a message to Ye Xiaowei: "[Weiwei, did you manage to get a taxi?]"

Ye Xiaowei: [No.]

Zhou Meiling: [Why don't we ask your mom to pick you up? She lives in downtown Shanghai, right? If we drive fast, it'll only take about half an hour.]

Ye Xiaowei hesitated, wondering whether she should ask her mother to pick her up.

at this time.

Zhou Meiling suddenly asked, "By the way, why don't we have Jun pick you up? You're helping Grandma Xu with something, and Grandma Xu works at a nursing home. If you explain the situation to him, he should be able to help you. I think 300 yuan for the round trip would be a very generous offer."

Ye Xiaowei: [Don't bother others, I'll think of another way.]

How could I possibly ask someone to come all the way from the countryside, dozens of kilometers away, to pick me up?

Neither relatives nor friends.

If she were his girlfriend, then the relationship might be considered passable.

She wasn't familiar with Gao Jun; they had only met twice.

Besides, I already owe them something for helping them find their student ID last time.

Ye Xiaowei refused without even thinking.

But as her phone battery dwindled, she found herself in a helpless situation.

Moreover, even though I bought an umbrella, the wind was too strong and the rain still hit me.

Since her clothes were already wet, Ye Xiaowei felt a bit cold.

Zhou Meiling was also worried about the safety of her sisters in the classroom.

Ten minutes later, she asked again, "Weiwei, did you manage to hail a taxi?"

Ye Xiaowei: [Not yet, I see no cars showing up around on the map on my phone.]

Zhou Meiling: [That would be too troublesome. Why don't you call the police and have them take you back?]

Ye Xiaowei: [No.]

If you're going to bother the police, you might as well call your mom.

finally.

She made up her mind and decided to call her mother.

Be honest about your current situation.

At this moment, Zhou Meiling thought to herself that Ye Xiaowei was currently in a remote and dangerous place.

If we don't get a taxi soon, it might be dangerous.

After all, no one can say for sure about the security situation in such places.

So Zhou Meiling took it upon herself to send Gao Jun a message: "Brother Jun, can you help Weiwei?"

At this moment, Gao Jun had just picked up his child and was planning to take Jiang Yilan home for dinner.

After seeing this message, I asked: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Zhou Meiling: [Here's the thing, this afternoon at the nursing home, Grandma Xu, whom Weiwei was serving, wanted Weiwei to go to her old house in the countryside to retrieve her lucky charm. However, after Weiwei went to the countryside, it suddenly started raining heavily, and there were no ride-hailing services around, so she's stuck there and can't get back.]

Upon seeing this message, I asked: "Where is that address?"

Zhou Meiling: [I'll have Weiwei send it over.]

Zhou Meiling then found Ye Xiaowei.

Zhou Meiling: [Weiwei, please send me the address quickly.]

Ye Xiaowei then sent her location.

When Gao Jun looked, he was surprised to find that it was more than 40 kilometers away from the city center.

It's astonishing that a young girl would run off to such a remote place. But considering her good intentions, she was willing to go alone to help her grandmother fulfill her wish.

She is also a kind child.

Gao Jun replied: "Okay, I'm going to find her now. Should I pick you up with me?"

Zhou Meiling: [I'm currently in class and can't leave, so this teacher is likely to take attendance.]

Zhou Meiling: [She's waiting at the crossroads at the village entrance right now. I'll have him find you directly.]

When Ye Xiaowei learned that Zhou Meiling had asked Gao Jun to pick her up, she immediately felt guilty: "This is such a waste of other people's time!"

Zhou Meiling: [It's okay. He knows you're working for the elderly in the nursing home, and he might even approve of you. Anyway, he's already left, so just stay there quietly.]

Ye Xiaowei: [Okay]

She realized she had been talking to Zhou Meiling, so she found Gao Jun's WeChat.

In fact, she didn't even add a nickname for Gao Jun in her contact.

Look at this WeChat name: "[Keep a good mindset]".

Ye Xiaowei also found this older brother to be quite interesting.

Ye Xiaowei: [Jun-ge, thank you. I'm really sorry to have troubled you.]

Gao Jun had already driven away, heading towards that address.

Gao Jun: [It's okay, find a place to shelter from the rain and wait there. I'll be there in about half an hour.]

Ye Xiaowei: [Okay.]

Time passes little by little.

Although she was able to return to the city, Ye Xiaowei was still a little nervous.

This was also the first time she had spent time alone with a young man.

Although the other party is not very young.

Judging from his appearance, he must be several years older than me.

Ye Xiaowei felt that she definitely couldn't let her mother know about this.

They'd probably go crazy if they found out.

While waiting, Ye Xiaowei listened to English and practiced her listening skills.

This diligent attitude towards learning is exactly what her mother hoped for.

But Ye Xiaowei felt too tired.

There has never been any relaxation in my life, from childhood to adulthood.

My mother instilled in me the importance of junior high school when I was in elementary school.

After junior high school, my mother emphasized that high school was a crucial time for me to make a final push.

After finally getting into a prestigious university, my mother told me that I absolutely could not date and had to continue focusing on my studies.

In other people's eyes.

Ye Xiaowei is very outstanding.

But only she herself knew that all these achievements were made at the cost of sacrificing a lot of free time.

She also wanted to have a carefree day of fun.

Watch the sunrise and sunset.

Look at the beach and play in the sea.

Go to the amusement park and ride the carousel.

As she pondered, Ye Xiaowei reflected on her current predicament.

But she didn't shed a tear.

Compared to the grievances she suffered in the past, the current situation is nothing.

But at this moment.

A dark figure walked towards her.

Ye Xiaowei didn't notice at all.

She only realized what was happening when the dark figure drew closer.

A big black dog kept barking at her.

This frightened Ye Xiaowei, who retreated repeatedly, terrified.

The big black dog seemed to realize that Ye Xiaowei was not from the village, and out of caution, it kept probing forward.

Ye Xiaowei kept backing away, hiding behind a big tree, not daring to look at the big black dog.

Just when she felt she was about to collapse, a bright light shone down.

The big black dog was so frightened by the two horn blasts that it ran away.

Gao Jun got out of the car and immediately walked up to Ye Xiaowei.

At this moment, Ye Xiaowei kept her head down, not daring to look up.

After confirming it was her, Gao Jun said, "Weiwei, it's okay, that dog has already run away."

Ye Xiaowei came to her senses and realized she could no longer hear the big black dog's voice.

Only then did he raise his head and look at Gao Jun.

Seeing the somewhat unfamiliar yet familiar face, Ye Xiaowei kept thanking him, saying, "Thank you, Brother Jun, thank you so much!"

"It's alright, let's hurry up and get in the car." Gao Jun said, helping Ye Xiaowei up.

When Ye Xiaowei saw him holding her arm, she subconsciously pulled away.

Gao Jun noticed this expression and asked more casually, "Can you walk by yourself?"

"I can."

Once outside the area covered by the big tree, Ye Xiaowei realized that Gao Jun hadn't brought an umbrella and had gotten out of the car.

So she immediately stepped forward, raised her hand, and tried to support Gao Jun.

After getting in the car.

Gao Jun immediately took out a tissue and handed it to Ye Xiaowei, then said, "Here, wipe yourself off quickly."

Ye Xiaowei politely thanked her, saying, "Thank you."

She was drying her hair and clothes.

But perhaps because Gao Jun was in the car, she didn't dare to wipe too thoroughly.

As Gao Jun drove, he asked, "Actually, you could have come back the next morning to pick up the amulet. That would have given you more time."

Ye Xiaowei explained, "My grandma Xu said she hasn't been sleeping well lately. I was planning to take the amulet back that day and then go to the nursing home to give it to her so she could get a good night's sleep."

Hearing this, Gao Jun was also touched by her kindness: "You really are kind."

Seeing that Ye Xiaowei was somewhat introverted and didn't talk much, he asked curiously, "You're not usually very talkative either, are you?"

"Mm," Ye Xiaowei nodded.

"Are you a freshman in college now?"

"Yes."

"You've already done a lot more than many college students by consistently volunteering at nursing homes every week since you started college."

Seeing him praising her, Ye Xiaowei stammered, "There are many people who are more capable than me."

Then she asked curiously, "Brother Jun, how old are you?"

Gao Jun was surprised that this girl would ask such a simple question.

So he replied, "I'm 29. How about you?"

"I'm 18."

"Then we're 11 years apart, you can call me uncle now."

Ye Xiaowei blushed and said, "I thought Jun-ge was only three or four years older than me."

"Haha, then I'll take it as you complimenting me on how young I am," Gao Jun laughed.

Perhaps it was because I had been soaked by the rain and caught a cold.

Ye Xiaowei sneezed.

Seeing this, Gao Jun immediately said, "There's a blanket behind you. Wrap yourself up in it and be careful not to catch a cold."

Worried that the blanket would get dirty and not wanting to trouble others, Ye Xiaowei said, "No need, Brother Jun, I'm not cold. Achoo."

"Hurry up and cover it up. If you really catch a cold, I'll have to take you to the hospital, won't I?" Gao Jun said, changing his tone.

As expected, Ye Xiaowei didn't want to cause trouble, since Gao Jun would have to take her to the hospital later, so she obediently covered herself with the blanket.

Because she was wearing a skirt, the water gathered under the pleats after the skirt got wet and dripped into the car.

Ye Xiaowei was worried that she would wet the car's interior, so she kept wiping her thighs and the hem of her skirt with tissues.

Gao Jun happened to look up at the rearview mirror.

have to say.

Legs like an 18-year-old's, absolutely full of collagen.

Of course, Gao Jun didn't have many thoughts about messing with the little girl in the rearview mirror who was 11 years younger than him.

Even if the other person is already an adult.
