The Western Store was about to close, and they weren't happy to see Luo Yu and Xi Beizhan arrive at this time. Luckily, we had connections. Li Kexin smiled and walked over when she saw them.

"Why are you here at this hour? It's almost time to get off work."

Luo Yu rolled up his sleeves and saw that there were still ten minutes left. There was no time to talk to Li Kexin, so he grabbed Xi Beizhan and headed straight for the tobacco and alcohol counter.

I bought two bottles of Sangou baijiu and a carton of Daqianmen liquor. Considering I had a lot of pastries in my storage space, I decided not to spend more money on those. Instead, I bought two packs of tea.

Since the tea in her space was of high quality, she didn't want to give it to the Luo family, so she had no choice but to buy it.

While waiting for Xi Beizhan to pay, Luo Yu and Li Kexin walked to the side and whispered, "I'm going back to my parents' house, so I have to buy something, otherwise it won't look good to go back empty-handed."

The key issue is that it's my husband's first time visiting my parents' home, and if he doesn't bring anything, people will gossip, and if they spread unpleasant rumors, where will my husband's pride be?

Li Kexin nodded. "That's how it is, but will you be okay if you go back? Should I go with you?"

Li Kexin knew that Luo Yu had a hard time at her parents' home, and she was a little worried.

Luo Yu smiled and gently touched Li Kexin's face. "I knew you would say that. Don't worry, you have my husband. Everything will be fine."

Speaking of which, how did things go with Shaoyang last night? Did he take you home?

Li Kexin blushed immediately upon thinking about what happened last night, and lowered her head shyly. "And you're still talking about it? I don't know what your Captain Xi and Shao Yang were talking about, but they pulled me up..."

Thinking that this was her workplace and it wasn't convenient to talk, Li Kexin quickly stopped herself, "No, I went home by myself yesterday, anyway, it's not far from home."

Luo Yu frowned. "It's not good if it's not far from home. It's too dark in the room. What if we run into bad people?"

"I told him to take you home, but he wouldn't listen. When you get home, I'll definitely tell my husband about it."

Li Kexin pouted, "Don't do that! If your Captain Xi finds out, he'll get scolded. He's already quite afraid of Captain Xi."

He said Captain Xi is really harsh when it comes to disciplining people. Just a couple of days ago, when you guys got back, Captain Xi took them out for training, and my son Shaoyang was so badly scolded he fainted.

Luo Yu looked at Li Kexin suspiciously, "Really? How come I didn't know about this?"

Is my good-looking but useless husband really that capable? Wasn't he only able to become a battalion commander because of his powerful background?

Why does it sound like that's not quite right?

Just as Li Kexin was about to say something, Xi Beizhan, having bought several items, came over to find Luo Yu.

Li Kexin was about to leave work, and everyone else had finished packing up, waiting for Luo Yu and Xi Beizhan, the last two customers, to leave.

Luo Yu didn't want to linger any longer. While nodding and smiling at the others and saying nice things, she winked at Li Kexin, signaling her to say some nice things to her as well.

Li Kexin understood immediately, gave her a reassuring gesture, and then pulled the little girl beside her to start talking.

"This is my classmate, we're really close, and she's a great person..."

"Works at Wulong Mine, affiliated with the Women's Federation..."

“I went to the provincial capital for training a few months ago. I just got back and took my husband to visit my parents.”

"I'm always too busy, I've tried to meet up with her so many times, but she never has time to get together with me."

“My classmate is really capable. She wrote the article about combating child trafficking more than half a year ago, and she also published the comic book.”

"Money? She donated it all. She's just a kind-hearted person."

"Oh? You want to get to know her? Sure, I'll introduce you two when she comes next time."

……

Li Kexin spoke loudly enough that all the sales clerks at the Ping An Western Store heard her. Upon hearing that Luo Yu was so capable, they immediately surrounded Li Kexin and began to inquire about Luo Yu's situation.

Li Kexin didn't hide anything and told everything she could, except for the Luo family. She kept quiet about it and said she didn't know anything about it when asked, as she had never been to the Luo family.

Li Kexin "accidentally" gave Luo Yu another boost in publicity, which increased her reputation. At least the sales staff at Ping An Western Store now knew who Luo Yu really was.

These people never stop talking when they have nothing to do. After their propaganda, I believe that everyone in Ping'an West will feel honored and proud to have such a capable person as Luo Yu.

Before it got dark, Luo Yu spotted the neighbors chatting together on the rooftop from a distance. She quickly patted Xi Beizhan and whispered, "Hurry up and stop the car so they can see us."

Xi Beizhan understood, and obediently pedaled quickly twice. When he got close to the middle-aged women who were talking and chatting, Xi Beizhan braked and stopped.

Luo Yu got out of the back seat with a smile and stood next to Xi Beizhan.

"Hey, Aunt Zhang, Aunt Li, and Aunt Song are still chatting? Has Uncle Li eaten? Uncle Niu is still smoking? You should smoke less; it's bad for your health."

"Isn't this Sanya? She's grown so much in just over six months! Kids really grow so fast! She only reached my waist at the end of last year, and in just six months she's almost up to my chest."

After saying that, Luo Yu casually took two fruit candies out of his pocket and put them in San Ya'er's hand.

"Eat it, it's from Sister Luo Yu."

It was getting dark, and the elderly folks, whose eyesight wasn't very good, took a while to make out that it was Luo Laowu from the Luo family.

"Isn't this Luo Laowu? You're back!"

Aunt Song, with her youthful and sharp eyesight, finally recognized Luo Yu after a long time.

Luo Yu smiled and nodded, "Hello, Aunt Song, it's been a long time."

Aunt Song glanced at Luo Yu, who had gained weight, and then at Xi Beizhan standing next to her.

At just one glance, Aunt Song couldn't help but gasp.

"Fifth brother, this is..."

This young man is so handsome! So good-looking!

Aunt Song's aesthetic sense is the same as Luo Yu's; she doesn't really like square faces, and she doesn't think much of handsome men with a dashing appearance. On the contrary, she prefers "pretty boys" like Xi Beizhan.

Luo Yu proudly raised her chin. "Let me introduce you. This is my husband, Xi Beizhan, the captain of the security department at Wulong Mine."

Upon hearing that Xi Beizhan was the captain of the security department of Wulong Mine, everyone immediately stood up.

Those with children working at the Wulong Mine all quickened their pace and approached the two, smiling as they looked Xi Beizhan up and down.

Looking at it this way, she's not bad looking, and she's quite a good match for the Luo family girl.

Xi Beizhan, who was of average appearance, nodded slightly to everyone with a stern face.

Hello, grandpas and grandmas.

After thinking for a moment, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and offered them to the elderly men present.

The elderly men carefully accepted the cigarettes, smiling and expressing their gratitude. Xi Beizhan nodded indifferently and said nothing more.

Seeing that Xi Beizhan seemed to dislike them, the old men felt a little embarrassed, but then they understood when they thought about how he was a cadre and a brigade leader.

I heard that the security department is under the jurisdiction of the armed forces department, isn't that awesome? The captain is an officer, and which officer doesn't talk with their head held high?

normal.

Can understand.
