Chapter 150: Infatuated Man
Chapter 150: Infatuated Man
Ran Mo asked him if he wanted to talk to Wei Hua about something. Wei Hua glanced at her but said nothing more.
Mr. Li knew that they were Wei Hua's relatives and friends, and they were all young people. If he didn't say something now, he might not have the chance to do so, so he simply said:
"I really like Weihua. If I can be with her, I will support her and take good care of her even if I have to sell oil for the rest of my life."
The reaction to his words was mixed. Some marveled at his straightforwardness, some admired his affection. Of course, there were also those who felt a mixture of embarrassment and enjoyment, not knowing what to say.
Ranmo looked back at Weihua. She no longer feared Weihua's frequent glares. Besides, everyone had gone through considerable hardship and even danger to come to her rescue.
Wei Hua did not show any displeasure at Li Sheng's bluntness. If she insulted Li Sheng in public, it would only make her appear heartless and disloyal. So she raised her head and said calmly:
"Mr. Li, I know you are a good person, and I am very grateful for your help. But love and gratitude are two different things. I already have someone in my heart. I am afraid that we are not destined to be together." He paused again,
"However, if there is a chance in the future, it is possible that we can partner up to start the oil sales business."
Everyone was speechless after hearing this. Fortunately, Wei Hua was quite frank. Mr. Li was certainly a good person, but whether he was a good match for Wei Hua was anyone's guess. So, let it be.
Li Sheng nodded, his expression slightly darker, but he had not completely given up hope. He looked at the reed painting and said:
"Xiao Hua, I will come to see you later. We will meet again if we are lucky!" After saying that, he glanced at the others and slowly walked towards the carriage.
After entering the carriage, the carriage turned around and drove towards Bangzi Town again, raising a cloud of dust behind it.
Everyone watched the carriage depart, their hearts filled with mixed emotions. Wei Hua got into the carriage and stopped talking.
Ran Mo recalled that Wei Hua had also made his fortune in the grain and oil business in his previous life. It seemed that he had some mysterious connection with Li Sheng, who was also an oil seller.
There were six passengers. Qingsheng suddenly became the coolest guy in the crowd. At least four people wanted to sit with him. But each compartment only held three. If another person squeezed in, they'd probably be sitting on his lap.
It's a pity that he has no say in the matter. If someone wants to sit with him, can he just push them away?
The final compromise was that Qingsheng, Ayili, and Weihua took one car, and the other three took another.
The reason why Ranmo dragged Azan into another car was mainly to take care of Ayili's mood. A single girl really needs someone to take care of her.
If she had to sit face to face with Wei Hua for two hours, she really couldn't stand it. If that person wasn't there, she would just close her eyes and sleep. But with that person in between, she had to keep her eyes open and pay attention to Wei Hua's little movements.
But now that she was out, wasn't she afraid that Wei Hua would do something to her? She actually had an idea in mind, and the trump card in her hand was Ayi Li.
Although Aili also loved to stick with Qingsheng, she inexplicably felt more at ease with her, knowing that this girl, at least for now, still had more of a family-like attachment to Qingsheng. In this regard, Ranmo was quite accurate in judging people and had a strong sixth sense.
Not to mention, she also secretly assigned a small task to Ayi Li. She asked her to keep an eye on Wei Hua from time to time, and if she and Qing Sheng acted too intimate, she would quickly find a way to help Qing Sheng out.
Because Brother Qingsheng is rather shy (is that so?), and doesn’t like being coaxed around like that.
Ayili understood that she would have to rely on this big brother to help her survive in the future. She felt obligated to help him out.
When she later told Ranmo how she had solved the problem, he nearly died of laughter, praising her cleverness. No wonder Weihua had gotten out of the car with an expression of resignation at not having eaten.
After getting on the bus, Aili sat down directly on the wider seat in the middle back, saying that she was too tired in the past two days and wanted to lean back and have a good rest.
Qingsheng was eager for this. He simply sat on the other side to rest. When Weihua looked at him, he would quickly close his eyes and doze off, or look out the window at the scenery.
Wei Hua felt so frustrated that she couldn't vent her anger, so she could only hold it in. After all, the other person had worked so hard to save her, and it would be unreasonable for her to harbor so many ulterior motives. It might even make people look down on her.
But the coquettish and aggrieved scenes she had originally planned were out of her control. Thinking of Mr. Li's deep affection and persistence for her, her mind became confused.
After two hours of travel, the carriage finally returned to Xiaoyue City from the south.
First, they walked to Wu Shao's house. Qingsheng had already made plans for Ayi Li's place on the way. He asked Wu Shao to take Ayi Li home first and help arrange accommodations. He would discuss it again when he returned.
Wu Shao had been getting along well with Aili these past two days and he liked this straightforward and lovely girl very much. Since his family had no shortage of houses, he readily agreed.
After the two got off the car, Weihua and Ranmo thanked them again. Then they continued on their way and soon sent Azan back home.
Ranmo finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had been so nervous the night Azan and the teacher were taken away. If anything had happened to Azan, how would she explain it to his mother?
The remaining three finally boarded the same carriage. Ranmo purposely avoided talking to Qingsheng, fearing he might upset Weihua. Qingsheng understood the situation and acted nonchalant, as if he didn't take anyone seriously.
Wei Hua couldn't help but seize the opportunity. She took advantage of this short while to talk to Qingsheng non-stop, acting like a spoiled girl. She just wanted Qingsheng to hug her and comfort her frightened heart.
Fortunately, Qingsheng remained polite in his responses. Weihua had no special relationship with him, after all, and with Ranmo by his side, he didn't dare act rashly. He just let her have her fun for a while.
When they reached the door of their house, their mother, who had heard the noise, had already rushed out to greet them. Ranmo wanted to throw herself into her mother's arms for a warm embrace, but then decided to give this opportunity to Weihua.
Unfortunately, Weihua probably felt that she had matured, so she just held her mother's hand, rubbed her shoulders, and cried a few times.
Her mother comforted her, saying that it was good that she had returned. She also warned her to be extra careful in the future when dealing with people and not to be schemed by bad people.
Wei Hua nodded and looked at Qing Sheng who was beside her. Mother hurriedly thanked Qing Sheng and asked him to pass on a message of gratitude to the other kind people who helped.
Qingsheng was polite, saying that we were a family and would help each other if needed. His mother patted his strong arms with joy and said that he was a very sensible child.
Qingsheng looked at Ranmo shyly. "Are you saying I'm still a child?" Ranmo thought, "I'm still just a little brat." However, his performance in rescuing people on this expedition was still remarkable, especially...
Suddenly, I remembered some unspeakable details in a certain building that day, and my face turned red.
