Chapter 295 Wu Mingli Goes to Xia Yichu's House
In junior high, she would occasionally get into fights with some clueless people. She won more often than she lost, since she had no friends, only her cousin and herself.
The opposing team usually consisted of three or more people. It was Xia Yichu's fearless fighting style that gradually made them afraid of her.
This resulted in Xia Yichu's personality, which is outwardly gentle but inwardly strong, a stark contrast. She is both sensitive and defensive, principled and has a bottom line, yet she is unwilling to compromise easily.
"Xiao Chu, if you keep stalking people, I'm calling your two uncles."
Wu Mingli knew that the Lin family was Xia Yichu's weakness, and that they were the people she cared about most.
"Uncle Wu, I already agreed to your request, and you're still threatening me." Xia Yichu stared at Wu Mingli in disbelief.
"I'm afraid you won't learn your lesson. Your dad asked me to take care of you. If something happens to you, I won't be able to face him in the future. And I don't know where your teacher is working now?"
He can't attend to your needs right now, you have to understand. He's dedicated his life to the country, and it's my duty to protect you, both morally and legally. No matter what's wrong with you, your safety must come first.
He admired his teacher's abilities and selfless dedication to the country. He could never realize his own dream in his life, so he could only protect his teacher's daughter.
"My mother understands him and accommodates him in every way after we got married. In order for him to be able to return to the city smoothly in the future, she didn't even get a marriage certificate."
His first child died because he fell while working for him and didn't get enough rest. He waited for her for several more years, only to pass away in regret. Why should I understand him? I can't understand it.
Xia Yichu said expressionlessly that in her past life, she had squandered all of Xia Guoan's fortune. In this life, Xia Guoan gave her all of that fortune again, so he owed her nothing. She said these words only to stand up for her mother; indeed, being love-struck never ends well.
Wu Mingli knew all this, and he also knew that Xia Yichu harbored resentment towards her teacher. But since it had already happened, one must learn to move on; the living are the most important. He believed that if his teacher's wife knew in the afterlife, she would surely want Xia Yichu and her teacher to live a happy life.
"District Chief, we've arrived at Pengcheng University." Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Xiao Li forced himself to speak.
"Xiao Chu"
Xia Yichu composed herself and said, "Could you please drive a little further ahead? My house is just ahead."
"Yes, Miss Xia."
"Xiao Chu, you don't live at school."
Wu Mingli frowned and asked. He had never asked her before, assuming that Xia Yichu lived at the school.
"No, I don't like living in school dormitories."
Wu Mingli thought of Xia Yichu, who had only Lin Xingcheng by her side from childhood to junior high school, and had no classmates or friends. In junior high school, she also met the wrong people, Chen Shaoping and Yang Mengru approached her with ulterior motives.
It's normal to not get along with classmates these days. He watched with concern as Xia Yichu told the driver which house she lived in.
"Yes, this is it. Uncle Wu, please come in and sit for a while before going back."
When the car stopped, Xia Yichu said that she knew Wu Mingli was very busy, but seeing him sitting in the car constantly rubbing his forehead, she wanted to go home and use the water in her space to make him a cup of tea.
"it is good"
As soon as Xia Yichu got out of the car, she heard Wang Zhijie calling her. She looked up and saw Wang Zhijie at her door.
"Yi Chu"
Wang Zhijie went to check on Wang's mother that morning, worried about her, and found she was ill. He immediately took her to the hospital and got some medicine. He then gave some money to hire a neighbor to look after her before coming over to find Xia Yichu.
He wanted to ask her if she had come up with a solution. If Wang Shengli and his father's problems weren't resolved soon, he was afraid Wang's mother wouldn't be able to hold on.
"Zhijie, what happened?"
"Xiao Chu, who is he?"
At this moment, Wu Mingli also got out of the car and looked sharply at Wang Zhijie.
Xia Yichu quickly introduced, "Uncle Wu, this is Wang Zhijie, my friend. Zhijie, this is Uncle Wu, my dad's friend."
Wang Zhijie greeted Wu Mingli politely, then turned his anxious eyes to Xia Yichu, "Yichu, Auntie is sick. How is the Wang family doing? I'm afraid that if things continue like this, his mother won't be able to hold on."
"Don't worry, the Wang family is fine now. Uncle Wu has taken care of everything. You go back and take care of Aunt Wang; I have other things to do."
Wang Zhijie then looked at Wu Mingli seriously and found that he had an extraordinary temperament and was obviously not an ordinary person.
"Okay, then I'll go tell my aunt the good news right away."
Wang Zhijie nodded to Wu Mingli and left, not intending to get involved with Wu Mingli.
"You have quite a few friends," Wu Mingli joked.
"It's alright, you don't need many friends, just a few true ones."
"But why are they all men? Aren't there any women?"
On the one hand, Wu Mingli was happy that Xia Yichu was able to make some friends, but on the other hand, he was worried that it was not good for her to hang out with boys. From what she said, the friend she asked him to help was also a man.
"Who said there wasn't? Look, here it is!"
Xia Yichu looked ahead and saw Wu Qiuyue walking over happily, a stark contrast to her demeanor when she first arrived in Pengcheng.
"Sister Yichu"
Wu Qiuyue called out to Xia Yichu, then smiled at Wu Mingli and his Xiao Li.
"Qiuyue, what brings you here today?"
"Sister Yichu, I happen to be off work today, so I thought I'd like to come and see the fluffy balls."
"Then you'll have made a wasted trip. They're still at my friend's house. I was supposed to bring them back yesterday, but I was too busy and forgot."
Wu Qiuyue looked disappointed. She had finally gotten a day off today, and it just so happened to be Sunday.
"Xiao Chu, can we go inside and talk about it?"
Seeing that Xia Yichu had friends who were happy for her, Wu Mingli tried his best to appear kind and approachable, so as not to scare her friends away.
Xia Yichu rubbed her forehead and said, "Right, right, look at my brain. Qiuyue, come in and sit down too. How's your sister doing lately?"
As Xia Yichu took out her keys from her bag to open the door, she said, "After the door is open, I invite them in."
"Uncle Wu, Qiuyue, Brother Li, please sit down. I'll go get you some water."
After Xia Yichu finished speaking, she went to the kitchen. Wu Qiuyue didn't have time to speak; she also wanted to go to the kitchen to help. Leaving her alone here, she felt uneasy.
Wu Mingli noticed her discomfort and said with a smile, "Qiuyue, sit down, don't be shy. How did you and Xiaochu meet?"
Wu Qiuyue quickly replied, "Sister Yichu and my sister used to be colleagues."
Seeing that Wu Qiuyue was nervous, Wu Mingli changed the subject.
"Then what was that fluffy ball you mentioned earlier?"
"They are the cats and dogs that Sister Yichu keeps. Mao Mao is a puppy, and Qiu Qiu is a kitten."
The two started chatting about cats and dogs. Wu Mingli's daughter also loves animals. They've never owned any pets because his wife is allergic to cat and dog fur.
However, Wu Mingli went to a friend's house and caught a cat that he kept at his workplace. His daughter would go and play with the cat after school.
At this moment, Xia Yichu brought out several cups of tea. "Try the tea I brewed. It was given to me by a friend of my grandparents. He gave me many kinds."
Xia Yichu brewed four cups of tea, one for each person and one for herself.
"Uncle Wu, how is it? Delicious, right?"
Xia Yichu watched as Wu Mingli drank more than half a cup in one go, which she had brewed with water from her spatial storage.
"It's delicious! What kind of tea is this?"
"I don't know, I don't understand. They used the last bit to make soup."
Xia Yichu was afraid that if Wu Mingli came looking for her, she would quickly tell him that she was out of tea and give him some to take back. However, if the tea she brewed for him didn't taste the same as hers, she wouldn't be able to explain it. So, she simply said that she was out of tea and would give him other tea if he wanted some.
