Lu Jiangting came out of the alley, stood outside the glass window, and silently watched the people inside.

I stood silently under the blazing sun for half an hour before leaving.

"Who is that young man?"

"Why are you standing outside the whole time?"

"Oh, they're gone."

……

Lin Yuyao is on duty tonight. After nightfall, there are hardly any people in the bookstore.

The streets are very quiet.

At that time, there weren't any bustling night markets, and even if there were, the bustle wouldn't extend to the bookstores.

There were only a few people reading in the store, and Lin Yuyao was also reading.

At that moment, a tall man in military uniform walked in.

As a librarian, I am very sensitive to the comings and goings of people in the store.

She noticed as soon as someone came.

I just didn't expect it to be him.

"Brother Fu, you're still reading so late?"

"Hmm." He gave a soft "hmm" and placed a few books on the counter.

"I've finished reading them all, I'm here to return the books."

"Okay, I'll cross it out for you."

Lin Yuyao quickly found the registration desk and crossed out the books.

"By the way, are there any good shows lately?"

Based on his reading history, Lin Yuyao recommended two similar books to him.

"How about these two?"

"Okay, can I look around here?"

Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "Sure, you can sit in the front and take a look. If you like it, then you can decide whether you want to borrow it."

"it is good."

As they were talking, someone called her to register.

Fu Huaiyi said, "You go ahead with your work, I'll take care of it myself."

"Okay, I'll head over now."

The borrower was a student from a family of modest means who couldn't afford to buy the materials and chose to borrow some for a few cents.

These days, there are no tutoring classes, and very few students would voluntarily go to bookstores to borrow materials.

She has always admired students with such high self-discipline.

He felt an even stronger sense of closeness to her, especially since she looked about the same age as her younger brother, Lin Ping.

Lin Yuyao gave him a notebook.

The boy was embarrassed and blushed as he said, "Thank you, sister."

Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "You're welcome. They're all defective products, so please don't mind them."

"I don't mind."

Some items with poor printing or wrinkles can be returned to the factory for replacement.

However, if you've been working with manufacturers for a long time, they usually don't need to return the defective products; they just need to report the quantity and they'll make up for it.

If they're being conscientious, they might even send a few extra items when shipping.

The boss said that these defective products should be left for them to handle themselves.

Sister Zhou has no children, so she usually doesn't take it.

Sister Liu has a nephew, and she occasionally picks out a few items with minor flaws to take back to him.

Lin Yuyao would take them; she used these notebooks to write her manuscripts, saving her the money of buying new ones.

Any leftovers would be given to poor students who loved learning.

It was almost time to get off work, and there was no one else in the store except for Fu Huaiyi.

Seeing that he was engrossed in reading, Lin Yuyao didn't want to urge him, so she took a book and sat down a short distance away.

After a while, Fu Huaiyi suddenly spoke up, "Did Lu Jiangting come to see you today?"

Lin Yuyao was taken aback, then nodded gently.

"Yes, he's here."

Fu Huaiyi clenched his fists and took a deep breath. "I didn't expect him to find us so quickly. Are you... alright?"

"It's fine."

"The doctor said you shouldn't be too stressed lately."

Lin Yuyao shook her head, "Don't worry, he can't provoke me anymore, I won't care about him."

“I’m afraid he’ll do something reckless again.”

"No, it's broad daylight, and there are people all around."

Fu Huaiyi nodded. "That's true, I was overthinking it."

He closed the book and said, "I'll borrow these two. Could you register them for me?"

"Ok."

After taking the book, he had to leave, and she should also get off work.

He watched her turn off the light and close the door, then said to her, "Let me take you home."

Lin Yuyao smiled and shook her head, "No need, it's quite close, only a ten-minute walk."

"It's too late now, it's not safe. You should have been off work half an hour ago, but I made you late."

Uh……

“I drove here, it’s just around the corner, come on in.”

At this time, you can park your car anywhere on the side of the road, which is really convenient.

Moreover, there are almost no traffic lights on the road.

There are only two intersections with traffic lights in the entire Chenshan Town.

Just turn the corner and you'll be there.

Fu Huaiyi watched her get out of the car.

I watched her go upstairs.

He only drove away after seeing the light in her room come on.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, Yi Yunshuo, who was wearing shorts, surrounded him.

"Oh, went to see Comrade Xiaolin again?"

Fu Huaiyi ignored him, took off his clothes and threw them aside, then grabbed a towel and went into the bathroom.

"Hehe, it must be. You've fallen in love."

Fu Huaiyi: "..."

The sound of running water came from the bathroom.

Yi Yunshuo leaned against the bathroom door, his mouth never stopping.

"Comrade Xiaolin is a good person, but... she's someone else's wife. I'm telling you, have you thought about it? You and she might not end up together."

Fu Huaiyi was extremely agitated in the bathroom. He buried his face in the water and tried to hold his breath.

He barely managed to lift his head before he could hold it in any longer.

Even though he was stubborn, he had to admit that he had really fallen in love with Lin Yuyao.

Heaven knows how thrilled he was when he touched her fair, jade-like skin the other day.

God knows how furious he was when he saw Lu Jiangting trying to force himself on her.

At that moment, in his eyes, Lu Jiangting was no different from the Japanese soldiers on the other side.

He wished he could kill him and drink his blood.

But when he calmed down and saw how clear her eyes were when she looked at him, he felt ashamed.

He wasn't much better than Lu Jiangting.

Lu Jiangting openly wanted her.

He secretly wanted her.

He understood that the only thing she looked at him with was gratitude.

She saw him as a good person, as a god who would save her.

But he... had such filthy thoughts about her, and even at night... more than once relied on thinking about her to relieve his physical needs.

That day, Mingming had already made up his mind to help her one last time.

I've bought her everything and made all the arrangements. I won't see her again unless it's absolutely necessary.

But only one day later, today... he heard that Lu Jiangting had taken leave and gone out, so he was so scared that he left early.

He actually arrived in the late afternoon and sat across from her drinking that awful malted milk coffee.

It tasted even worse than traditional Chinese medicine, but he still gulped down cup after cup.

I watched from afar through the glass.

Even though he knew she was alright, he was still worried.

In the end, he couldn't resist and went in to return the book just as she was about to leave work.

What books should I read?

He didn't like reading those books at all.

In order to spend more time with her, he pretended to sit there for half a day.

He showed concern for her under the guise of friendship, and approached her under the pretense of borrowing and returning books.

What's the difference between him and Lu Jiangting?

It's just half a pound.

He felt so dirty that washing himself over and over again was no use.

But that bastard Yi Yunshuo kept kicking him while he was down, and kept talking nonstop.
