Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 64: A rough man with a fierce mouth but a soft heart vs. a beautiful young intellectual (22)

Shen Shuyi noticed the emotion in Lu Huai's eyes. She returned to the educated youth dormitory and couldn't wait to open the cloth bag in her hand.

Inside was a dark blue woolen hat, a pair of red woolen gloves, and two pairs each of beige and brown woolen socks.

It felt soft to the touch. Shen Shuyi put the hat on her head and took out a small mirror to look at herself. The dark blue color made her face look even whiter.

Really like!
The next day, she put on her hat and woolen socks, and she still felt warm in the cold winter wind.

Last time, Lu Huai asked Yingzi to send a lot of walnuts, so she happened to make some walnut cakes and send them to the Lu family to thank Grandma Lu.

She walked in with a small bamboo basket and saw Yingzi and Grandma Lu basking in the sun in the yard. She called out, "Grandma Lu, Yingzi!"

"Hey, it's Xiaoyi." Grandma Lu looked at her, "Yingzi, go get a cup of hot tea."

Shen Shuyi sat at the stone table beside the well, took out the walnut cake, and said with a smile: "Grandma Lu, I made some walnut cake today, please try it."

"I'm very happy that you came to see me." Grandma Lu smiled kindly, "Thank you, Xiaoyi, for bothering you so early in the morning."

"It's not a big deal. Yingzi sent these pecans."

Shen Shuyi didn't stay at the Lu family for long. Grandma Lu ate two pieces of walnut cakes and felt sleepy, so she went to rest. Yingzi had to prepare lunch and wait for Lu Huai to come back from work.

She walked to the kitchen and touched the red cap on Yingzi's head. "What a beautiful cap! Grandma Lu is so skillful."

"Hmm?" Yingzi blinked. "My elder brother knitted it. Grandma can't see clearly. Sister Xiaoyi, you look so beautiful in the hat!"

Shen Shuyi's hands froze for a moment, "My hat was also knitted by your brother?"

"Yes, my eldest brother would come home from work every day and weave with an oil lamp at night. My grandmother and I also have some, but he doesn't."

Shen Shuyi felt a little uncomfortable on the way back to the educated youth center. She packed up the remaining walnut cakes and walked towards where Lu Huai was working.

There is little work to do in winter, so villagers try not to go out unless they can. However, Lu Huai cannot sit still for a moment and goes to the fields to work.

In the fields, Lu Huai was worried about something and was distracted while working, so he didn't even notice Shen Shuyi coming over.

"Lu Huai, I made some walnut cakes. Go wash your hands and come back to eat them."

When Lu Huai looked up and saw Shen Shuyi, his emotions, which had been tense for a long time, suddenly couldn't be contained anymore and his heart began to beat violently.

She also wore a woolen hat that she had knitted herself.

very nice.

She looks good in anything she wears.

"Okay." Lu Huai put down the hoe in his hand and looked at the big tree. "Wait for me over there."

"You go quickly." Shen Shuyi put the small bamboo basket on the treetop and walked towards Lu Huai.

When they reached the river, she stood behind Lu Huai and asked, "Did you knit the hat?"

Lu Huai was silent. He rubbed his hands in the water, and his ears felt a little hot.

"Yingzi told me everything."

Lu Huai dried his hands, stood up and looked back at her, his eyes falling on her flawless white face, "I was afraid you wouldn't accept the one I knitted."

"So you lied?" Shen Shuyi blinked.

Lu Huai was silent.

Shen Shuyi raised his eyebrows and smiled, then walked towards him.

"Comrade Lu Huai, you always say one thing and mean another."

She didn't notice that there was an uneven stone under her feet, and she didn't step firmly. Her body suddenly swayed and she was about to fall to the ground.

In a flash, she was hugged by a pair of strong arms around her waist.

Shen Shuyi stood firm, and while still in shock, she looked up to meet Lu Huai's deep eyes, and her little face turned red.

Lu Huai said nothing, but he could hear his own breathing becoming heavier. He used his arms to hold her steady.

Shen Shuyi held his arms and thanked him calmly, "Thank you."

Lu Huai didn't dare to look at her expression. Instead, the familiar fragrance made him feel confused. He lowered his head and his Adam's apple rolled slightly.

"You're welcome."

The hand around her waist loosened and Lu Huai took a step back, "Walk carefully."

"Oh." Shen Shuyi followed him and walked towards the treetop. Shen Shuyi sat next to him and looked at the hilltop not far away, "Lu Huai, the jujubes in the mountains are ripe."

"Do you want to eat?" Lu Huai took a bite of the walnut cake and drank a sip of water.

"Well, the jujube tree is not far away. I can pick it myself."

Lu Huai pursed his lips and said, "Don't go. I'll pick them and let Yingzi bring them to you tomorrow."

Shen Shuyi snorted and stood up suddenly. "Eat slowly. I'm leaving now."

Lu Huai couldn't figure out how he had made her unhappy. After eating the walnut cake, he stopped cultivating the land and picked up an axe to go to the mountain to pick jujubes.

When she came back, she was carrying two bundles of firewood on her shoulders. She could ask Yingzi to bring the jujubes to Shen Zhiqing, and she would also take a little firewood every day.

In the evening, smoke from cooking rose up. When Lu Huai passed by someone's house, he heard the peasant women who were picking vegetables and cooking in the village looking at him frequently, muttering something loud or quiet.

"I saw Shen Zhiqing delivering food to the kid from the Lu family again."

"Still cuddling by the river."

"You saw it with your own eyes? Is it possible? How could a delicate young woman from a city like Lu Huai be interested in that thorny guy?"

"Of course I saw it with my own eyes. And the people who came from the city with Shen Zhiqing have already said that she is not a quiet person. This little vixen will seduce men. You must take good care of your sons and don't let them seduce you."

When Lu Huai heard these words, he frowned, clenched his fists, and hurried home.

Yingzi saw him coming back with a big bag of jujubes and said excitedly, "Brother, there are so many jujubes. I'll take some to give to Sister Xiaoyi."

"No thanks." Lu Huai's face was gloomy.

Yingzi looked puzzled, "Why? Sister Xiaoyi likes to eat sweet wild fruits the most."

Lu Huai thought of the riverside again, and how angry she was because she went to pick jujubes. "I'll go and send them off later, so no one can see us."

"Okay!" Yingzi quickly took the jujubes, then picked the reddest, ripest and best ones and put them in the basket.

……

When repairing water conservancy projects and clearing canals in the fields in winter, Shen Shuyi walked past Lu Huai and found that he looked away as soon as he saw her.

Shen Shuyi was stunned. Is it true that he has been distancing himself from her these days?

Moreover, she found that many people in the village looked at her in a strange way.

Shen Shuyi raised his eyebrows and asked the system, "66, what's going on? Is there something that I don't know about?"

Check out the newly launched system immediately.

[Host, something terrible has happened. A pornographic rumor has been spread about you!]
Shen Shuyi clenched his fists, "Cheng Wanqin again?"

[That’s right.]
"You really have forgotten the pain after the wound healed. 66, give me another powerful pill that will last for an hour."

This time, she wanted to punish Cheng Wanqin in front of everyone.

Cheng Wanqin was still working absent-mindedly. She had been feeling unwell recently. She felt like vomiting after eating a little and had no appetite.

She hasn't eaten the egg cake Liu Dayong gave her yet.

Suddenly, a shadow appeared behind me.

Before Cheng Wanqin could react, she was slapped to the ground.

"Ah——" Cheng Wanqin covered her face, her eyes sparkling. She looked up at Shen Shuyi, "Shen Shuyi, why did you hit me?!"

"Snapped!"

"Pa!" Shen Shuyi slapped her twice again, and the others gathered around.

"Hey, Shen Zhiqing, you can't do that." These people looked at Shen Shuyi with complicated eyes. She is beautiful, but she is not decent.

Shen Shuyi glanced coldly at the people around him, and finally looked at Cheng Wanqin, who had a bruised face and nose.

"I said last time that if you spread rumors or cause trouble again, I will not only beat you up, but everyone is here to bear witness today that I will not allow anyone to slander my innocence."

She turned around and looked at Captain Yang, "Captain, I won't do today's work. I'm going to the town to report to the police."
