Chapter 162 I want to ship them as a couple!
Gu Panyue's appearance stunned Bao Ya. No wonder men like girls who are like little white rabbits. She liked her too.
Thinking about this, I couldn't help but start to examine myself. It seems that I can't just throw punches all the time anymore, and I should learn some real skills.
Fang Mingda glanced in the rearview mirror at Bao Ya in the back seat, a mischievous grin on her face. Her lively, bright eyes sparkled with a captivating light. He thought to himself, "Life with her must be amazing."
The person who felt the most uncomfortable in the car was Qi Jianjun. He could clearly feel Gu Panyue constantly glancing at him, and her intense gaze made him very uneasy.
I wanted to tell Fang Mingda, who was next to me, "Why don't you let him drive?" But seeing his limping leg in a cast, I could only resign myself to continuing to drive.
The atmosphere in the car was quiet, but not eerie. All three were happy, except for one who seemed a little uncomfortable.
"Brother Qi, what time will you be back this afternoon?"
Finally, Gu Panyue mustered up the courage to speak first. Her voice was soft and sweet, and a hint of shyness appeared on her pretty face. Her earlobes were tinged with pink, making her look even more adorable.
"Around four o'clock, or later is fine too, whenever it's convenient for you, we'll come pick you up."
Qi Jianjun spoke gently, his words full of accommodation, and he even spoke very slowly, as if afraid of rushing her.
Wow, they're treated even better than my own white moonlight in the book. I'm starting to want to ship them as a couple.
"Really? Thank you so much. I'll go to the county cultural center; it shouldn't be too late then. I'll definitely be done before four o'clock."
Gu Panyue responded excitedly to Qi Jianjun, as if he had made a special effort to accommodate her schedule.
Bao Ya silently rolled her eyes. You finished earlier than him, what's with the thanks? It's not like he waited for you on purpose.
"Bao Ya, what time will you be finished? Do you want us to pick you up?"
Fang Mingda saw her roll her eyes and, fearing she felt neglected, quickly asked her what was wrong.
"Me? It doesn't matter, anytime is fine, I'll come find you myself."
She hadn't decided where to go yet, so she figured she might as well go shopping by herself and then go find them.
"Okay, when you're done playing, come find us at the Armed Forces Department. We'll be there."
"Okay."
Upon arriving in the county town, Bao Ya got off the bus at a relatively bustling street and then wandered around aimlessly.
The bluestone pavement gleamed from being walked on, and the shouts from the street vendors came one after another—the frying pan for fried dough sticks sizzled, an old farmer carrying vegetables squatted against the wall, a faded red cloth curtain hung at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, and fruit candies, snow cream, and enamel mugs were displayed in the glass cabinet, all rare items that everyone needed.
Like a little sparrow that has wandered into a bustling city, she glanced at the passersby: cadres in gray Zhongshan suits, female workers carrying canvas bags, and teenagers chasing and playing... The noisy, bustling atmosphere enveloped her. She didn't know where to go, so she just wandered aimlessly.
After confirming the locations of the state-run restaurant and department store, Bao Ya strolled down another street. She planned to shop first and then buy things, so as not to keep carrying them around.
As they walked, they came across a barbershop. Bao Ya looked at the ends of her braids and then went inside.
Actually, I could get a haircut at home, but Wang Xiao gave me a haircut voucher, so I used it and got my hair washed at the same time.
After washing her hair, Bao Ya instructed the hairdresser to cut her braids shorter, and then braided them into two pigtails.
Looking at the woman next to me getting her hair permed, I felt a little envious. But when I saw the finished product, that envy vanished completely; it looked like a sheep's tail.
After leaving the hair salon, Bao Ya went to the movie theater. There was a movie showing at 9:30, so she arrived at just the right time.
After watching a movie alone, Bao Ya walked out of the cinema. Shopping alone was really boring. Suddenly, she missed her little wolf dog and wondered what he was doing.
Bored, Bao Ya walked towards the state-run restaurant. There weren't many people there yet. She went in, ordered a plate of meat dumplings, and found a seat by the window to eat.
The dumplings have thin wrappers and generous fillings; one bite and the juices burst forth. Dip them in vinegar and minced garlic for an even more delicious and flavorful experience. The more you eat, the more fragrant they become.
Bao Ya was enjoying her meal when her eyes inadvertently caught sight of a familiar figure outside the window, instantly ruining her good mood.
How come I keep running into Lin Chuxue everywhere? She's like a persistent ghost. My good mood from enjoying the delicious food vanished instantly.
Bao Ya had a bad feeling, as if something bad was about to happen. Thinking this, she quickened her pace in eating the dumplings.
Thinking that after finishing her meal, she would quickly go to the department store to buy things, and then wait at the armed forces department. Neither the female protagonist herself nor the events happening around her were likely to be good.
Lin Chuxue also saw Bao Ya eating at the state-run restaurant. Her heart skipped a beat. How could she run into Lin Bao Ya everywhere?
He glared at her disdainfully, then ordered a bowl of noodles, carried it to the other end of the restaurant, and found a seat.
She wanted to stay away from Lin Baoya and didn't want to listen to the lewd words coming out of her mouth.
After finishing her dumplings, Bao Ya fled the state-run restaurant and headed towards the department store.
Lin Chuxue returned with the supply and marketing cooperative's purchasing vehicle and was scheduled to head back at 2 PM. She planned to finish her meal quickly and take advantage of the remaining time to buy some things at the department store.
Lin Chuxue came out of the state-run restaurant and wanted to take a shortcut to the department store. Just as she reached the corner of an alley, a man and a woman suddenly rushed out and grabbed her without saying a word. The man even covered her mouth with his hand.
Lin Chuxue, whose hands were restrained and mouth was covered, was first startled, and then realized that she had encountered human traffickers.
As the man covered her mouth, she bit his hand hard.
"Hiss! You bitch, you dare bite me."
The man slapped Lin Chuxue across the face.
"Ah~"
Five finger marks instantly appeared on Lin Chuxue's face, and blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.
"Help! Someone help me!"
She didn't care about anything else at the moment and shouted loudly before the person covered her mouth.
When the two men heard her cry out, they panicked immediately. The man pulled out a dagger from his waist and held it to Lin Chuxue's throat.
"Say that again, and I'll kill you with one stroke!"
He lowered his voice, his vicious tone filled with ruthlessness, and gripped her hand like an iron clamp, giving her no room to struggle.
The cold dagger pressed against her neck, the chill seeping into her bones through her skin. Lin Chuxue's cry for help, which was on the tip of her tongue, was abruptly stuck in her throat, and her blood seemed to freeze instantly.
Lin Chuxue tried her best to calm herself down and think of a way to save herself. Looking ahead, she saw the police station; if she could find a way to get there, she would be safe.
Looking at her, the woman scoffed and lifted her chin, saying:
"Don't waste your time thinking of ideas, you can't escape. And don't even think about reporting to the police; don't forget where you just went."
