The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

Chapter 195: Chapter 194: Another Enviable Day

Gu Jiaojiao had originally wanted to swing by the black market, but her hands were too full, so she would have to come back another time.

「Leng Yuan’s house.」

Lu Yuanbin was still excited as he brought up the topic of making money.

”Brother Leng, does your wife have any more facial soap?”

”If she does, I’ll take it with me when I leave this time.”

Leng Yuan replied, ”No, my wife hasn’t made any yet.”

Gu Jiaojiao actually had the time, and this stuff was better to make in the winter anyway.

It solidified faster, and the results were a bit better.

However, Gu Jiaojiao wanted to see the market’s feedback first before deciding whether to make more.

When Lu Yuanbin heard this, he quickly spoke up.

”Brother Leng, when your wife gets back, you have to get her to make more. People have already asked me about it several times.”

Leng Yuan nodded. ”I’ll tell her when she gets back. By the way, on the 24th of this month, my wife and I are hosting a dinner. Make sure you come.”

Lu Yuanbin had come over this time not only for the facial soap, but also because he wanted to see Gu Jiaojiao.

It was just unfortunate that Gu Jiaojiao wasn’t around.

He could only let it go.

Lu Yuanbin had other things to do, so he didn’t stay long. After they finished talking, he got ready to leave.

Just as he straddled his bike, he realized the things he’d bought were still hanging from the handlebars.

Lu Yuanbin placed the items in the courtyard, then rode off on his bike.

Chen JianShe looked at the two jars of yellow peaches and the few boxes of pastries, and a sense of crisis washed over him.

But no matter how he racked his brain, he didn’t know what he should do.

Finally, thinking of the Wang Family’s matter, he stood up decisively. ”Brother Leng, I’m going to go beat up Wang Youcai and stand up for your wife.”

Hearing this, Leng Yuan stopped tidying the courtyard and looked up at Chen JianShe.

”What did Wang Youcai do?”

Chen JianShe scratched his head. ”You know, that time Wang Youcai’s son was bullying Sweet Girl, and your wife taught him a lesson. Then his wife came over demanding an explanation, and your wife scared her away.”

”The whole thing should have been over with, but Chen Yan couldn’t let it go and has been spreading nasty rumors about your wife all over the village.”

”I’ll go beat up Wang Youcai and stand up for your wife.”

Even though Chen Yan was the one who did it, it wouldn’t be right for him to lay a hand on her.

Wang Youcai was her man, so beating him up would work too.

Leng Yuan hadn’t known about this.

His gaze darkened.

However, he didn’t give an immediate response.

”When did this happen?”

”It happened the last time you went to the County Town.”

Chen JianShe had been out that day, too, and only heard about it from Second Girl when he got back. He’d been furious at the time, but let it go after hearing that Gu Jiaojiao hadn’t lost out at all—on the contrary, Chen Yan had been forced to pay two yuan.

But in the last couple of days, that woman Chen Yan has clearly been stirring up trouble.

He’d just been spurred on by Lu Yuanbin.

Otherwise, he really wouldn’t have thought of beating up Wang Youcai.

Hearing this, Leng Yuan glanced at Chen JianShe. ”Stay out of this. I’ll handle it myself.”

Chen JianShe felt that Brother Leng’s gaze was a bit cold, and he was a little scared.

Seeing that it was getting late, Chen JianShe made an excuse and slipped away.

He only breathed a sigh of relief after running out the door.

’Just now, Brother Leng’s expression barely changed, so why did it feel so intimidating!’

’I’d better get home soon!’

’Best not to get caught in the crossfire.’

Lu Yuanbin was much faster on his bicycle. While others took over an hour by ox cart or over two hours on foot, he reached the County Town in just forty minutes.

Just as he stopped to let someone pass, he suddenly saw a familiar figure. At that exact moment, someone blocked his view, and when he looked again, the person was gone.

Still, he recognized her instantly—it was the girl who had been selling fountain pens last time.

’It wasn’t that he had any ideas about her; the girl was just so pretty, the kind you can’t forget after a single glance.’

Gu Jiaojiao was unaware of all this. She boarded the ox cart, carrying her large bags, and everyone stared in astonishment.
