Because every house has lights on and the weather has been very good recently, although the moon cannot be seen outside, it is not completely invisible.

The two walked side by side in the night, chatting from time to time.

Suddenly, Zhu Ruru felt warmth on her hand, and her little hand was wrapped in a big palm.

There is no doubt that the owner of this big hand is the man walking side by side with her.

In my impression, Meng Huaiyan rarely took the initiative to hold her hand.

Although the two of them are considered to be together, the relationship between the two is actually not much different from before. Many times they don't look like a couple at all.

At this moment, Meng Huaiyan suddenly took the initiative to hold her hand. To be honest, Zhu Ruru was stunned for a moment.

Feeling the warmth on her hands, she raised her eyes and glanced at the profile of her face that could still be seen with clear outlines even in the night. Zhu Ruru finally had the feeling that they were a couple.

"Ayan, your palms are a little rough. Have I asked you to do too much work during this time?"

The back of his hand was actually very fair, but when he held it, Zhu Ruru felt that there were many thin calluses in his palm and it felt a bit rough.

Zhu Ruru wondered if it was because he had to work every day in the past few days, cutting medicinal materials, grinding medicinal powder, etc., that he had so many calluses on his hands.

"Does it make you uncomfortable?" After saying that, Meng Huaiyan blushed and tried to let go of his hand.

Zhu Ruru grabbed him with her backhand and intertwined her fingers with his. She shook her head: "No, I like it very much, but I feel a little distressed."

Unexpectedly, Zhu Ruru would pull her back and... interlock her fingers with him. The fair and handsome face that was originally stained with red clouds instantly became even redder.

"It doesn't matter, these are nothing. When I practiced in the past, it was much harder than this."

When Meng Huaiyan mentioned practicing martial arts, Zhu Ruru remembered that his martial arts had not fully recovered yet.

I don't know what the problem is.

She thought, it would be great if the hospital in the space could be opened, and the instruments inside could be used to give him a full-body examination, and maybe the problem could be found.

Thinking of this, Zhu Ruru became even more anxious to earn points quickly.

However, the fucked up system has no rules at all in releasing tasks, and there is no way of knowing when it will release the next task.

It may not be released until half a year or a year later.

During this period of time, the pirates earned a lot of points by building houses, but they were still far short of 100,000 points.

Although Zhu Ruru wanted to earn 100,000 points quickly, she also knew that this matter could not be rushed.

The two of them were walking quietly in the night holding hands. Suddenly, a voice came from the front, "Sister Ru, you guys..."

When Zhu Ruru raised his head, he saw a figure standing there in front of him.

It's Meng Chengyue.

His eyes fell on the intertwined hands of Zhu Ruru and Meng Huaiyan, with shock on their faces.

Although he had heard Zhu Yushan say before that he saw Zhu Ruru and Meng Huaiyan holding hands and the two behaved intimately, Meng Chengyue still didn't want to believe it.

But at this moment, seeing the two of them interlocking with his own eyes, he couldn't bear to believe it.

Zhu Ruru and Meng Huaiyan are actually together!

Meng Chengyue only felt bursts of sadness in his heart. If he had taken the initiative before and confessed to Zhu Ruru earlier, would he be the one who is intertwined with her now?

Thinking of this, Meng Chengyue hated his dullness even more.

Meng Huaiyan also raised his eyes and glanced at Meng Chengyue.

In fact, he had discovered him a long time ago, but he remained silent.

Although Meng Huaiyan has a cold temperament, he is very possessive. He has always known Meng Chengyue's thoughts about Zhu Ruru. He thought it would be good to let him know that Zhu Ruru was not someone he could covet today, so he remained silent.

.

At this moment, seeing the look on Meng Chengyue's face, he knew that his "purpose" had been achieved.

He moved his hand and tried to take it back, but Zhu Ruru refused to let him break free.

Zhu Ruru naturally felt Meng Chengyue's thoughts about her, otherwise he wouldn't have given her things again and again.

Her idea was very simple. She and Meng Huaiyan were not shameful. Since Meng Chengyue saw it, they should let him see it openly.

It would also be a good thing if this could make Meng Chengyue stop thinking and stop giving her gifts in the future.

You know, every time you are rejected, it is very troublesome.

"Brother Chengyue, why are you here?"

"Are you like us, you feel it's too boring to stay in the house and watch the New Year's Eve? Come out for a walk?"

Zhu Ruru pretended not to see Meng Chengyue fall on her and Meng Huaiyan's hands, and talked to Meng Chengyue with a smile.

Meng Chengyue looked away from their hands with difficulty and nodded.

Then, with great difficulty, he forced out a smile and said, "Yeah, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"We want to go to the beach, do you want to come with us?" Zhu Ruru took the initiative to invite.

"No, no, you go ahead, I'll go home later." Meng Chengyue refused with a white face.

What else can I do if I don’t refuse?

At this time, he felt like he had been stabbed in the heart. If he really went with them and watched them holding hands and "loving each other", that would be simply self-abuse...

"Okay, brother Chengyue, let's meet tomorrow."

Of course, Zhu Ruru didn't really want Meng Chengyue to go with them. It would be very uncomfortable for the three of them to go for a walk together.

She just said it casually.

When she heard Meng Chengyue's refusal, of course she would not insist anymore.

After saying goodbye to Meng Chengyue, Zhu Ruru and Meng Huaiyan held hands and continued walking forward. The two figures quickly disappeared into the night.

Meng Chengyue stood there for a while, then put away his lonely mood and walked towards his home.

The winter in Hai'an Town is not too cold, but it can still be a bit cool at night, especially when the sea breeze blows from the beach and the temperature gets even lower.

Therefore, Zhu Ruru and Meng Huaiyan did not stay outside for long, and went home after shopping for a while.

In the room, Tang Qinglan was still awake, holding tools in her hands and making shoes.

When she heard the door being opened, she raised her eyes and glanced.

"Ruru, you're back. Is it cold outside?"

"Fortunately, it's a bit cold at the beach." Zhu Ruru glanced at the oil lamp on the desk, walked over and pulled out some of the wick, and cut off the burnt section with scissors.

The lights immediately brightened a lot.

"Mom, why are you still making shoes so late? You may hurt your eyes."

Tang Qinglan put down the shoes in her hands, raised her hands and rubbed her eyes, "It's okay, I have to watch the New Year's Eve tonight, it's too hard to just sit there, so I'll just make some shoes to pass the time."

Zhu Ruru disagreed very much, "Mom, why don't you go to bed early?"

This place is not like Kyoto, there is no excitement to watch outside, and there is no stage to listen to plays. It is also not like the era before Zhu Ruru traveled through time, there is a TV to watch...

It's really hard to sit dry.

"That's okay. Tonight is New Year's Eve. We have to stay up until dawn. At least one person in the family must stay up until dawn."

This is a common custom in their country of Daqin.
