Chapter 245

Who would have thought that Qiao Xiaoling, always so arrogant and domineering, would change her style? She even seems to be imitating Bai Ying...

"Brother Yang, you're here!"

As soon as she saw Yang Mingwu, Qiao Xiaoling's eyes sparkled and her tone was full of surprise.

"Ah."

Yang Mingwu walked into the courtyard and spoke to Qiao Xiaoling in a soft voice, "I'm sorry for making you live in the old house. The conditions here are not good and you have suffered."

"No," Qiao Xiaoling said with a sensible look, "I'm already very happy that Brother Yang can give me a place to stay!"

Hearing this, Yang Mingwu felt much more relieved.

The two entered the house.

Looking at the spotlessly clean house, Yang Mingwu felt even more pity for Qiao Xiaoling, who had a miserable life.

He took out the lunch box and put it on the table. "Haven't you had dinner yet? This is the meal I specially prepared for you from the army cafeteria. Eat it quickly. Don't starve."

"Thank you, Brother Yang!"

Qiao Xiaoling picked up a piece of fried hamster with chopsticks and put it in her mouth. Her eyes lit up instantly, "What kind of dish is this? It's so delicious!"

Yang Mingwu looked down at Qiao Xiaoling lovingly, "This is fried oysters, made with a kind of seafood called oysters."

"Seafood?" Qiao Xiaoling asked in confusion, "Where does our commune get seafood? If it's from somewhere else, it would probably go bad before it even gets here."

Yang Mingwu didn't think there was anything to keep secret. He told Qiao Xiaoling everything he knew. "The seafood is supplied by the Rising Sun Farm. They live by the sea, so they pick it up from the beach."

"Rising Sun Farm..."

Qiao Xiaoling tried her best to hide her inner shock.

Isn't this the farm near their brigade? How did it get connected to the army?

Bai Ying had just married into the farm when the farm had established ties with the army. Considering that there were soldiers who came to pick up Bai Ying on her wedding day, Qiao Xiaoling had a bold guess in her mind.

This seafood issue is probably related to Bai Ying again!

To verify her suspicions, Qiao Xiaoling asked tentatively, "Brother Yang, do you know who at the Rising Sun Farm is responsible for supplying seafood to the troops?"

Yang Mingwu couldn't help but feel puzzled, "Why are you curious about this?"

Qiao Xiaoling immediately burst into tears. "Brother Yang, to be honest, I live in the brigade next to the Rising Sun Farm, and I've never heard of a farm selling seafood before. How come they suddenly started selling it? Also, I never knew there was such a way to eat oysters in my life. This is so strange."

"Oh, so that's it," Yang Mingwu said, dispelling his doubts. "It seems to have been done by a barefoot doctor named Bai."

Doctor Bai?

Bai Ying is the only barefoot doctor in the team, who else could it be if not her!

Qiao Xiaoling really couldn't swallow this.

She almost ruined Bai Ying's next life by marrying a fool, but Bai Ying lived a good life and now uses the farm as a cover to do business.

A flash of resentment flashed across Qiao Xiaoling's eyes. She had originally planned to slowly take down Yang Mingwu, but now it seemed that she could not delay any longer!

"Woooooooo..."

Qiao Xiaoling suddenly leaned over the table and started crying.

Yang Mingwu quickly grabbed Qiao Xiaoling's shoulders and asked, "Why are you crying for no reason?"

Qiao Xiaoling raised her head, revealing a pitiful little face. "Brother Yang, you don't know, that barefoot doctor surnamed Bai is my cousin. She didn't want to marry a fool, so she forced me to marry a fool... Why did my cousin push her marriage to me? I'm homeless now, but she..."

Seeing Qiao Xiaoling crying so sadly, Yang Mingwu felt his heart ache for some reason and said softly, "Don't be sad, Xiaoling. I will protect you."

"Brother Yang!"

Qiao Xiaoling threw herself into Yang Mingwu's arms, hugging him tightly, "You are the only one I have now, please don't leave me..."
