Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Jiang Xinyu saw Wei Kaiyun off, then hurriedly prepared.

Boiled water noodle soup, this way the pancakes won’t be hard even when they’re cold.

She was busy until eleven o’clock, and finally finished all the preparations. Five pancakes, a lunchbox of pig’s head meat, and shredded pickles beside it. The thermos was filled with half a bottle of millet porridge.

She only brought a set of outer clothes, no sweater or thermal pants, planning to buy them in the Capital or the Provincial City.

This is a homemade cloth bag, the kind that you carry.

At five-thirty, Jiang Xinyu got up, the stove had already gone out, and she made two large bowls of lamb offal noodles and two fried bun slices with the pot.

Wei Kaiyun arrived at the door by car at six. He found the main gate ajar, pushed it open, and the courtyard was filled with the aroma of food.

”Hurry and eat, is the luggage prepared?”

”Mm, it’s ready.”

After finishing their meal, Wei Kaiyun was responsible for loading the luggage into the car, while Jiang Xinyu tidied up the house one last time.

After checking the fire to ensure there were no issues, she finally locked the main room’s door.

”You didn’t sleep well last night, I’ll drive, you can nap in the back.”

”I’m not sleepy now.”

”Then just lie down with your eyes closed.” Wei Kaiyun’s attitude was very firm.

Wei Kaiyun drove very fast. The road was extremely bumpy, making it impossible for Jiang Xinyu to sleep.

Through the rearview mirror, Wei Kaiyun saw that she was not sleeping at all, stopped the car, ”Sit in the front and keep me company with a chat.”

”It’s too bumpy, I feel uncomfortable.”

”Are you carsick?”

”No, it’s not carsickness.”

”Jiang Xinyu, let’s get married!”

The spiritless Jiang Xinyu heard Wei Kaiyun’s words, and her eyes widened as she looked at Wei Kaiyun.

”Don’t look at me like that.”

”Are you crazy?”

”No, why would it be wrong?”

”Of course it’s wrong! Firstly, you’re older than me, and besides, I’m still a minor.”

”There are advantages to me being older; I can spoil you, indulge you. As for you being underage, don’t worry, we can get engaged first, simply as an unmarried couple, and live together. Once you turn eighteen, we’ll tie the knot.”

”But I don’t have any romantic feelings for you?”

”You actually know about romantic feelings?”

”Why wouldn’t I know?”

”Since you know, it shows you’re not too young.”

”There’s no need to discuss whether I’m young or not. I don’t have any feelings toward you as a partner.”

”That’s not an issue, I can make you feel it right away.” Wei Kaiyun suddenly stopped the car, and before Jiang Xinyu could react, she was already sitting in his arms, with him in front and the steering wheel behind.

Jiang Xinyu felt as if she was bound by steel, the more she struggled, the tighter she felt confined.

Forced to lean against Wei Kaiyun’s embrace, she heard the pounding of his heart and a distinctive male scent.

”Let me go.”

”How about it, didn’t feel this before, right? Now can you feel that I’m the opposite sex?”

”You...”

”I’m not trying to force you, I’ll give you time, but only this month to think about it, and I won’t accept a refusal.”

”You should go to the hospital, you’re purely insane.”

Jiang Xinyu’s face turned red, and Wei Kaiyun looked down to see her neck was also flushed.

”Try seeing me from another angle, maybe you’ll find something different.

I like you and want you to be my wife, it’s natural. There’s a gap between us, but rest assured, I’ll strive to live longer than you and be even better to you.”

After listening to Wei Kaiyun’s words, Jiang Xinyu relaxed completely.

Her first confession was avoided because she disliked Kong Derong at first sight.

Wei Kaiyun’s confession made her heart flutter. Hearing his words, she felt a little joy inside; what would an ordinary woman seek?

A man who truly loves her to form a happy family.

Wei Kaiyun felt the woman in his arms soften and thought he should keep pressing on.

”Xinyu, you can’t leave now, we’re tied together. I told you once that I wanted to share some hidden information with you, and you refused.

However, even refusing leads to the same result, outsiders see us as a single unit.

You said I’d face prison trouble in the future. I believe that, but have you considered that if I were really caught, would you fare well?

I swear I’ll clear your name, but others won’t believe it. You haven’t seen their interrogation tactics, they can make you admit things you don’t even know.”

”You’re harming me.”

”No, when I first saw you, I knew I had to keep you by my side. You’re my turning point.

Xinyu, you don’t know, I’ve been dreaming of this since I woke up at ten years old.

In the dream, there’s Kong Mengjie, but not you. The dream also has her Kong Mengjie rising to success and me falling into prison.

The specific details are unclear, so when I heard you said to sell the job to Kong Mengjie, I became even more certain you must remain by my side.

Back then, I didn’t think about what would happen between us. I was walking on a knife’s edge, and didn’t want to drag you down, but you slowly entered my heart.

That time I saw you fascinated with Lv Beiguang’s back, I was furious, but later I thought it through, who am I to act all noble? If I like you, I’ll find a way to keep you close.

So Jiang Xinyu, do you really think you can escape?”

”But can a marriage without love be happy?”

”Love? What is that? A vague thing, remember it’s enough if I love you.”

”Let go of me first, let’s drive and discuss this topic while talking.”

Wei Kaiyun also knew when to stop, released his grip on Jiang Xinyu, watched her clumsily climb into the passenger seat and settle herself.

He started the car and continued on.

Jiang Xinyu closed her eyes, analyzing Wei Kaiyun’s words in her mind. He knew the future direction, so she was foolish, unknowingly stepping into it.

Wei Kaiyun’s words implied his situation was even more complicated, which made it even harder. It’s like he said, the two were already tied together. If Wei Kaiyun were to really get into trouble, she wouldn’t end up well either.

In her heart, Jiang Xinyu didn’t dislike Wei Kaiyun; she had never had a guy with her for such a long time, not even friends.

Reevaluating their relationship, aside from age, when comparing their differences, she really only had the advantage of age.

Although emotions can’t be measured with material or external things, it’s still the foundation of future coexistence.

She had thought of falling in love and getting married in this life. Now that the opportunity was here, she didn’t know if it was good or bad.

If she refused Wei Kaiyun, the hope of establishing a family before the age of twenty-five in this life would be slim.

Moreover, she had to wonder whether she could successfully get away from Wei Kaiyun.

He kept her close because she had value to him. Thinking through these things, Jiang Xinyu knew she had only two paths: assisting Wei Kaiyun in escaping the plot.
