Time Travel: Conditional Wealth

Chapter 34 Awkwardness

In winter, it gets dark early, and when He Xi goes out, the sun is no longer visible.

When He Xi waved goodbye to the other three people, Lu Jinan appeared again at the same position as yesterday, looking at He Xi deeply in his eyes.

He was leaning against a tree, his posture serious and earnest, wearing a white sweater, a black coat, and black pants, which made his legs look extremely slender.

Time goes back.

When He Xi woke up in the morning and called her to have breakfast, she found that the bedding on the kang had already been put away and her bicycle was not at home. She must have gone to work without even saying hello.

Father He gently touched his wife's arm and said, "Did you say something too harsh last night? I heard there's a term called rebellious psychology."

He's mother narrowed her eyes slightly. She did not blame herself for her harsh words, but was dissatisfied with He Xi. This child was too ignorant. How could he not understand her good intentions.

Lu Jinan is a wealthy young master who lives a life of luxury. If she marries him, she will never have to worry about food and drink. If she gives birth to a son in the future, she will surely be able to secure the position of the Third Young Lady. She also has her own way of making money, so the Lu family may be in her hands in the future.

He's mother comforted Lu Jinan: "It's all because He Xi is ignorant. Don't worry about it. I'll talk to her when I get back. Let's eat first."

He Fei and Xiao Yan exchanged glances, both looking helpless. He didn't care about his daughter, but only about money?

Lu Jinan glanced at He's mother and frowned.

"Come here, let's talk." Lu Jinan said in a commanding tone.

He Xi glanced at him, then rode past him and said, "Who are you to command me?"

She left after leaving only one sentence.

Lu Jinan's expression froze slightly. It was the first time that he was humiliated in front of a girl. It was always the girls who chased after him, thinking about him, his family's money, and his family's power.

Lu Jinan followed closely behind, neither hiding nor avoiding, following her openly.

He was too happy and didn't pay attention to his feet, so he fell heavily to the ground. The car also hit him. He Xi frowned and his knees hurt.

Lu Jinan is some distance away from He Xi and is powerless to help.

Seeing He Xu fall and get hit by the car, he exerted force on his legs and ran to her side as fast as he could. Just as he saw it, he fell when he got out of the car.

He Xi heard the sound of an elbow hitting the ground with a "Duang" sound, but Lu Jinan ignored it. His furrowed brows still indicated that there was a problem.

"How is it? Can you stand up?" Lu Jinan gently felt around He Xi's knees through her pants to check her injuries. It seemed that there were no broken bones.

He Xi looked at him and asked, "How is your arm?"

Her cautious look made Lu Jinan want to tease He Xi.

Hearing this, he lay directly on the ground, with his left arm placed on his chest, his head tilted towards He Xi. Although his face was pale, it was not enough to hide his handsomeness: "It seems that my bones are broken."

"Ah?" He Xi ignored the pain and crawled towards him using both feet, wanting to pull him up and take him to the hospital, but her legs were unable to stand up. Finally, she stood up shakily and held the car in place.

A car stopped at a fellow villager's house and gave money, and took out her work ID to avoid the other party from committing principled problems. After all, she insisted that human nature is evil.

One rode to the nearest hospital.

Seeing He Xi's serious attitude, Lu Jinan was very satisfied and decided not to tease her anymore. He touched the tip of his nose and said, "I'm fine. I don't need to go to the hospital. I was just teasing you just now because I wanted to see you worrying about me..."

He Xi's heart was slightly moved, but she didn't dare to agree. She stretched out her hand to pinch his face and pulled it hard: "You don't count. Get in the car and go to the hospital."

Lu Jinan didn't look like he had much flesh on his body, but he was quite heavy. He Xi was so tired after riding to the hospital that he was sweating and his face was flushed.

On the other hand, he was fine. When encountering an uphill road, he asked indifferently: "How about I get down?" Then just come down. There's no point asking.

Before she could open her mouth, he said again: "I was injured because of you, can't you be nicer to me?"

Yes, you can sit on it. Even if you push it, you don’t need to get off the bike, and you can sit on it even when going uphill.

She gritted her teeth and thought she could do it. It was just a small uphill road. However, the road was slippery due to the snow and she almost fell again.

"What's the use of you?" Lu Jinan got out of the car, hurt his arm, and groaned, "I'll push the car."

"No, I'll do it myself."

After much struggling, we couldn't figure it out, but luckily we finally arrived at the hospital.

"What? A fracture, it's really broken!" He Xi just felt that things were getting troublesome.

The doctor's diagnosis woke Lu Jinan up. No wonder it hurt so much. He asked, "Can I see now?"

The doctor who received the patient thought for a moment and said, "Wait a minute, let me see if they have finished get off work, given the time."

The county hospital is not like the big hospitals in the city. There are no professional doctors on duty after working hours. It is hard to say whether I can get a plaster cast today. I will probably have to be hospitalized.

The final result was fortunately not there, the young doctor was there, but the old doctor was. He took X-rays and put on a plaster cast, which cost fifty or sixty yuan. Fortunately, He Xi's money was all saved in the system, otherwise it would be hard to say what would happen today.

Since the injury was not serious, Lu Jinan did not choose to be hospitalized. He took the medicine and the two staggered back home.

It was already dark at this time. He Xi couldn't see the route in the distance as she pushed her bicycle. Being alone with Lu Jinan also made her feel complicated.

She exhaled, "Lu Jinan, we are allies, you know that? Regarding your ever-changing acting skills, I think it is necessary to remind you."

He is calm and steady, he is gentle and elegant, he is domineering and indifferent. He doesn't know when he turned into a dramatic actor.

Lu Jinan stopped and looked at He Xi silently for a while, then said, "Do I need to keep my distance? What's wrong with me?"

"Everything is fine. It's my fault. We are not from the same world. I don't belong to anyone."

Lu Jinan was stunned for a moment. She knew. How could she know? He hadn't told anyone about his rebirth.

Lu Jinan laughed at himself and chuckled, "He Xi, you may not know that the more difficult a woman is, the more she will arouse a man's fighting spirit."

He Xi was speechless: "Who is it?"

When returning home, He Xi did not answer any of He's mother's questions because there was nothing to say.

What is fake is fake and can never be true. No matter what others say or do, she can never get over it in her heart.

She boasted that she would be nice to the original owner's family and take care of them for her, but who would be responsible for her life?

She is also a victim. Now it is her life, not the original owner's life. No one can make choices for her.

She wants to live her own life.

The snow was still falling, covering all traces. He Xi was sitting on the edge of the kang, sobbing, with tears as big as beans falling down, looking pitiful. Lu Jinan, who was outside the door, heard the sound but came in without knocking.

When he turned around to leave, he suddenly met He Fei's eyes. There was worry in her eyes, and also dissatisfaction with him. How could he make a girl cry?
