Time Travel: Conditional Wealth

Cold violence is unacceptable to anyone, let alone our "dominant boss". After a few days, Lu Jinan finally couldn't stand it anymore and rushed to He Xi, his tall figure completely covering her: "Have you calmed down?"

Lu Jinan said soft words with a gloomy face, and it seemed like he was being harsh on He Xi. Which good person would apologize like this?

Father He watched them quarrel and started to worry again: "Xi, that's enough. You've been ignoring him for several days. He already knows he was wrong. Give dad some face and let's make peace."

He Fei and Xiao Yan also helped to smooth things over. He Xi glanced at Lu Jinan, who immediately lowered his posture and looked at He Xi formally.

He Xi asked him: "Then are you still abusing me?"

Lu Jinan was silent for a while, his eyes looked aggrieved: "Can I let you abuse me in the future?"

He's father was confused, but he heard the word "domestic violence" clearly. He looked at Lu Jinan carefully and he didn't think he was someone who would commit domestic violence.

Did he hide it too well? No, domestic violence can be a big deal or a small one, and it concerns the happiness of my little daughter for the rest of her life.

He Xi smiled and said, "I don't have your kind of fetish."

Father He looked at the two people who were about to reconcile, and asked Lu Jinan in a deep voice: "Xiao Lu, what is the domestic violence you are talking about?"

Lu Jinan also felt that the matter of "domestic violence" needed to be explained: "Uncle is like this..."

He's father nodded and glared at He Xi: "That's just him. If I beat you up, it would be a light punishment."

He Xi pursed her lips slightly: "Be quiet, I'm eating, say it again, I hit a man."

He's father stopped talking and looked at Lu Jinan. Has she ever hit you?

Lu Jinan shook his head. Not yet, but he had been bitten before.

He's father was surprised. He Xi is not a dog. Where did he bite you? Do you need to go and see?

Lu Jinan shook his head again, raised his hand and touched his chest, with a sweet look on his face. Everyone frowned and asked, "Are you sure that wasn't flirting?"

Lu Jinan: I don’t know, it’s itchy.

He's father breathed a sigh of relief and mentioned He Xi's birthday: "How do you want to celebrate your birthday? What should we eat?"

Lu Jinan was afraid that He Xi would reveal the truth, so he continued He's father's question: "Uncle, when is He Xi's birthday?"

"The twenty-sixth day of the sixth lunar month."

He Xi was briefly surprised. It turned out that they had the same birthday. Fortunately, fortunately, "Dad, why is it written on my household registration that it is June 4th?"

He's father paused, also showing helplessness: "Your mother, she told me that your 26th is unlucky and bad for you. I thought it was only a matter of more than 20 days and didn't take it seriously. Maybe she had been planning something from the beginning."

He's mother's thoughts are really terrifying when you think about them carefully. They are hard to guard against and all-pervasive. She is a mother but not the original owner's mother. When I first came through, I thought she was a good mother.

It turned out that everything was an illusion she had created in order to reduce the villagers' suspicion of her.

Ever since dinner, Lu Jinan has been a little anxious and has been pacing back and forth at He Xi's door.

Did she find a way to go back? No, she was already dead in that world. She said it herself. Could there be some hidden clues? He Xi still didn't believe him and had reservations about him?

Just when he was about to open the door to ask He Xi the truth, the door was pushed open from the inside. Two pairs of clean eyes met, and they were all looking at each other. He Xi smiled and said, "Looking for me? It just so happens that I have something to ask you too."

He Xi was really stunned by Lu Jinan's fake smile. Even the most handsome man would look the same when he made this expression: "What's wrong with you? Did something happen? What did Auntie write in the letter?"

Aunt Lu wrote a letter almost every month without fail, asking about him and He Xi and their recent situation, and also talking about the situation over there.

Monthly living expenses are essential. She knows that Lu Jinanzi has his own business outside, but as long as he has not really started a family, it is natural for his parents to support him.

Lu Jinan quickly collected his thoughts and pretended nothing had happened: "Nothing, it's the same question as last time. When is your birthday?"

Speaking of this question, He Xi was both pleasantly surprised and surprised: "Did you know? Our birthdays are both on the same day, June 26th. I was just about to ask you, how should we celebrate, or what do you want to eat?"

Lu Jinan said nothing.

He Xi leaned close to Lu Jinan, stood on tiptoe and hugged his neck, and said in a very small voice: "I'm sorry, I..."

He Xi hadn't finished speaking when he felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. She was really going to leave him and return to her original world. He could barely be considered a passer-by in her journey, someone she might not even remember after many years.

He Xi was a little surprised by Lu Jinan's stiff body. She continued, "I shouldn't have been so petty and cold-blooded towards you. I... I am lacking in emotions."

"I used to be afraid to look other people in the eye when I was talking to them. Even if a girl got close to my back, my hair would stand up and I would get goose bumps."

He Xi is isolated and helpless. He likes to be alone and is afraid of crowds. He does not know how to communicate and is not good at it, and it is difficult for him to empathize with others.

It turned out that he was not leaving. Lu Jinan felt pleasantly surprised that the clouds had finally cleared and the moon was shining. He hugged He Xi back tightly, so tightly that He Xi could hardly breathe: "He Xi, let's not quarrel anymore, and I won't force you to study math anymore. We'll be fine."

Lu Jinan tightened his hands on He Xi's waist, wishing he could rub her whole body into his. She coaxed him in a nearly fainting tone: "Okay, as long as you don't force me to learn math."

"Okay. But you have to learn it yourself."

He Xi: “…”

Do you think she has that kind of self-awareness?

The He family had a very lively time on the birthday, with firecrackers blasting and drums beating. If you knew it was the child's birthday, you would have thought it was a wedding.

The blueberry cheesecake was sent by the system. Recently, He Xi helped to hide the secret, and the system was particularly obedient and considerate.

"1" and "8" were lit on the birthday cake, and everyone was celebrating He Xi's th birthday, which also represented her true adulthood.

He Xi made her first birthday wish in this life in front of everyone. She hoped that everyone in this life could live freely and no longer feel aggrieved and depressed.

The whole table of food was prepared by Lu Jinan, who was increasingly acting like a "househusband". After the birthday dinner was over, the three of them consciously made room for today's little birthday boy and Lu Jinan, who had just reconciled and needed some alone time.

The temperature here has turned cooler at night, and it is also the time when mosquitoes are rampant. He Xi and Lu Jinan each hold a mosquito repellent sachet. He holds He Xi's hand and walks leisurely on the road in the village.

Walking to the place with the widest view, Lu Jinan took out a small wooden box from his pocket. When he opened it, there was a bracelet inside. He took out the jewelry and squatted at He Xi's feet to put it on her.

"Anklet?"

"Correct."

"Why? People usually give out necklaces and bracelets as gifts, but who gives out anklets as gifts for birthdays?"

Lu Jinan didn't care about that. He stood up and put his hand on He Xi's shoulder, his breath ambiguous: "People whose feet are tied can't run away, and you can't run away either."

He Xi was touched, thinking that it was her previous words and actions that made Lu Jinan feel insecure, so even a "domineering" man would be so cautious. It seemed that she needed to comfort him.

He Xi stood on tiptoe, put her arms around his neck and kissed his thin lips. It was late at night and the only sound around them was the rubbing of two people's lips.
