Chapter 46 Cold War(1/2)

The man moved his fingers. When Chu Wanying wiped them, she held his hand down and frowned, "Don't move it."

He glanced at his hands, which were only slightly red. He felt that she was making a fuss out of a molehill, and said with a smile, "Didn't you just say that, luckily the porridge is not hot."

Chu Wanying rolled her eyes at him and said, "You have to wipe it off, too!" The porridge was so sticky that it felt uncomfortable to touch it on your hands.

After she wiped it clean, the man took his hand back, looked at her blankly and said, "What did you mean by what you just said?"

Chu Wanying returned to the water tank to clean the handkerchief. When she heard what he said, she replied smoothly, "What did you say?"

"It means you have no chance with him. What does that mean?"

The girl lowered her head and did not see that the man looked very unnatural when he said this.

"It's superficial! I don't think I'm so lucky to meet a dedicated and affectionate man in this life who only treats me well."

Chu Wanying said this casually, but the man frowned when he heard it.

"Why so negative?"

She didn't answer but asked, "How do you think I got the name of a bad guy?"

In the previous life, he was abandoned by his parents in an orphanage at birth. In this life, his mother died when he was born. His father did not care for him and his stepmother did not love him.

So no matter how you look at it, Chu Wanying is a person with extremely bad luck.

She doesn't expect things to turn out well in terms of love and marriage, she just hopes that she won't get into bad luck again and that's all.

After all, she has nothing else but this face.

The original person looks very similar to her. In the past, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she would deliberately look ugly.

Fortunately, in this life, she had Rong Zhan as a shield, which saved her a lot of trouble.

Rong Zhan was stunned for a moment when he heard her words, "Is that why?" He didn't think the girl was a person who believed in fate.

"Don't you believe it?"

"It's all nonsense." Experiencing rebirth made him believe in the existence of fate, but he never believed that she was the scapegoat.

Chu Wanying smiled and said, "Okay, whether you believe it or not, love affairs are hard to come by. Isn't it something I can encounter if I believe it or not?"

After saying that, she drank all the porridge in the bowl and wiped her mouth with a wet handkerchief. "Let's get back to the subject. If we go directly to Li Che tomorrow, do we need to think of some words in advance?"

Back to business, Rong Zhan's expression returned to his serious look in a moment. He pursed his lips and said, "No, just go directly tomorrow."

He knew that it was difficult to hide the waist card, so he thought about it again and again, "If we ask directly, the pawnshop owner will definitely not tell the truth directly, but Li Che is his boss, and because of his face, he

Eventually something will be said.

It’s just that this matter involves too much now, so just in case, we need to make Li Che promise not to leak this matter, otherwise we will all be in trouble."

Chu Wanying looked at his serious face and knew that he might have some clues about this matter.

Besides, waist cards are something that ordinary people can't get. She is afraid that if this matter continues to be investigated, it will eventually involve relatives of the emperor and the country.

If it really comes to that, even if she has ten heads, it won't be enough!

She has a clear goal in this life, she just wants to focus on making money, and she doesn't want to get involved in other messy things.

Therefore, she considered her words and said politely, "Rong Zhan, if it really brings us trouble, do you think this matter should be ignored? Anyway, the second daughter of the Xing family is dead, and the Rong family has been cleared.

Suspect, we are living a pretty good life now, there is no need to cause so much trouble for ourselves, right?

Even if we don't take care of ourselves, we still have to take care of the rest of the Rong family, right?"

He didn't know what she said.

Just in order not to repeat the mistakes of his previous life, he must find out who framed the Rong family in the first place, otherwise what is the point of his rebirth?

He lowered his eyes so that Chu Wanying could not clearly see his expression. She only heard the man say lightly, "If you are tired, you can take care of the shop by yourself. I will do it."

Hearing this, Chu Wanying felt a little unhappy, "What do you mean by this? Do you think that if something happens to you, I can take care of myself? I am your wife, even if you don't like me anymore, in name only, this status

It still exists.”

She didn't quite understand why the man, with his cold temperament, was so brooding about this matter.

Is it just because Xing Sisi's body was found in Rong's house?

But the suspicion has long been lifted!

Why go through this muddy water?

Hearing that the girl's tone was unkind, Rong Zhan didn't say much. He just picked up the bowls and chopsticks and walked to the basin, where he started washing them without saying anything more.

This attitude was obviously intended to be dealt with coldly. Chu Wanying lost her temper for a moment, walked out of the kitchen, and went straight back to the house to lie down.

When Rong Zhan entered the house, he saw the girl sitting alone in the corner shivering.

He frowned and took out his quilt to cover the girl. Unexpectedly, the girl was not asleep at all. She noticed his movement and shrank back inside.

Rong Zhan covered her again, but the girl threw off his quilt.

After two rounds of this stalemate, the man looked calm but never spoke. He simply put the bed quilt behind the girl and lay down in a daze.

When Chu Wanying heard that there was no movement behind her, she felt even more angry.

This man is so boring, can't he even say a soft word?

But the next moment, she was shocked by her thought again.

Why should a man coax himself? She is just his wife in name only, not really.

Forget it, don't argue with him.

She forced herself to calm down. After an unknown amount of time, she turned around and saw the man lying on his back on the bed. In the dark night, she could only vaguely see the outline of the man's facial features.

She touched the quilt behind her and quietly covered the man with it. Unexpectedly, as soon as the quilt was covered, the man suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed her wrist directly.

He didn't open his eyes, and opened his thin lips lightly, "Has the anger subsided?"

Her heartbeat stopped for a moment because of his move. She calmed down a little and said with a straight face, "Who is angry?"

"Okay, you're not angry." The man raised the corners of his lips.

She couldn't see his appearance clearly, but she knew from his tone that he must be smiling, and said angrily, "Rong Zhan! You are so bullying!"

"How did I bully you?" The man's tone was slightly raised, and he didn't sound sleepy at all.

Chu Wanying was not used to his tone of voice, which made her feel confused for a moment. She threw away his hand, shrank back into the corner under the quilt, and simply ignored him.

This person is just rubbing his nose in his face. If he says another word, he is afraid that there will be another quarrel.

In fact, she didn't like to quarrel with him from the bottom of her heart.

Hearing the girl's movements, Rong Zhan's eyes opened instantly. His eyes were bright and clear in the night. He tilted his head slightly and sighed, "If you're angry, don't wrong yourself. It's cold at night, so you should cover me with this quilt."

.”

Chu Wanying covered her head, and a muffled voice came from the quilt, "No."

Okay, Rong Zhan is secretly thinking, I will see if you are cold later.

Then the room fell into silence.

Chu Wanying didn't know when she fell asleep. She only knew that in her daze, the originally cold surroundings suddenly became warm.

Acting on instinct, she leaned closer to the source of warmth.

As if that wasn't enough, she simply circled the source of the fire with her hands and feet, and even rubbed her face affectionately.

It feels so comfortable! She sighed in her heart.

As everyone knows, the man's face was tense at this moment. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the girl who was holding him like an octopus, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his expression.

The way this girl sleeps is really, really hard to compliment.

He chuckled.

——————

Rumor has it that when he was young, he was drafted into the army and served as a soldier. He killed enemies bravely in the camp and was very brave, and finally got a big position. Just when the people in the village thought that the Rong family finally had a general who could shine on their family, the old man

Rongtou was suddenly sent back to his hometown. Since then, he has been depressed and depressed, and has never regained the courage he once had.

By now, the rumors in the village were very popular and there were many rumors.

But villagers like to spread gossip the most. Within a few years of this incident, there were new rumors...

In such a cold winter, a few farmers occasionally came out to clear the snow. When they saw her, they couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

But she was completely unaware of all this, and with a pair of apricot eyes open, there was a firmness and determination in her eyes that could not be ignored, and she moved forward without hesitation.

She wore a dark cotton-padded jacket that was heavily patched, and a pair of oversized cotton-padded shoes on her feet. A few clumps of white cotton were faintly exposed at the seams on the heels of the cotton-padded shoes.

The girl stood up and shook her little head, which was red from the cold. Small snowflakes on the brim of her hat fell all over her shoulders.

Chu Yunting was originally obsessed with Rong Zhan's beauty and couldn't let it go. Now that he's here again, is he trying to shake her daughter's heart again?

When Rong Zhan heard this, he glanced at her coldly, as if he could see through her thoughts at a glance, and curled his lips and smiled, "What are Mrs. Chu afraid of?"

The sun sets in the west.

The setting sun dragged the girl's frail and thin figure down from the mountain.
