Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Long-Awaited Flutter
Thank you again for the reward support from Xue Shi Shou Huang!
The next day, the news that Chu Jiaqiang was going to build a bridge over the reservoir spread throughout the village of Chu Family, causing another stir. Everyone was secretly shocked and thought that Chu Jiaqiang had a big nerve! He didn't care about the money at all, and more than 100,000 yuan was spent just like that. When this bridge is completed, it will become the first long bridge in Chu Family Village and even several nearby villages, which is enough to make them proud.
Chu Jiaqiang ignored the gossip and rode his second uncle's motorcycle towards the town. When he arrived on the street, Chu Jiaqiang immediately called Ye Caiping. As soon as Ye Caiping spoke, Chu Jiaqiang knew that she was still asleep.
"Hey! Beautiful girl, what time is it now? Still sleeping, if you don't get up, I'll leave!" Chu Jiaqiang threatened.
Ye Cai Ping's sleepiness dissipated a lot and she immediately said: "Alright! Wait for me for a few minutes, where are you now? I'll find you in a bit."
"Right next to the new street station, hurry up, I'm impressed by you, it's already 9 o'clock now. I wonder how you used to get to work on time?" Chu Jiaqiang stopped the car at the side of the station.
It's called a station, but it's actually just a shop of several dozen square meters. Inside, they only sell tickets on behalf of the bus company and don't have a parking lot. Passing buses usually stop here for about 10 minutes to pick up and drop off passengers and refuel.
"Oh! Then wait a few minutes." Ye Cai Ping was more careful this time and immediately hung up the phone, so that guy wouldn't get angry like yesterday.
Chu Jiaqiang occasionally glanced at his phone, ten minutes had passed, he could understand, girls are like that, being late for a bit is no big deal. But twenty minutes had passed, Chu Jiaqiang started to get anxious, but still endured it. Half an hour slowly passed, Chu Jiaqiang couldn't bear it anymore, just as he was about to make a call, he saw Ye Caiping walking over from afar with a slow pace.
"Big sister, can't you hurry up? The flowers have wilted several times already." Chu Jiaqiang thought to himself: Is this your concept of a few minutes? He didn't know that this was the result of his actions last night. Ye Caiping deliberately prolonged the time by several folds in order to get revenge for Chu Jiaqiang hanging up on her last night.
"What's the hurry? Your ex-girlfriend didn't even look in the mirror before leaving? Besides, when you called me, I hadn't even gotten out of bed yet." Ye Caiping thought to herself with a sense of satisfaction.
Chu's family was strong in the abdomen: Even if you look at the mirror, you don't need to look for half an hour, do you? He knew that Ye Cai Ping's home was on New Street, not far from here, just a few minutes' walk.
He didn't bother to argue anymore and immediately asked, "Can we set off now?" Chu Jiaqiang immediately stepped on the accelerator, and the motorcycle suddenly emitted a deafening sound.
This motorcycle also has some history, five years ago when my second uncle bought it back, this car was already a used good, with a lot of smoke. After being tempered on the "Tianlu" road in Chujiazhuang, the car had long reached the standard for scrapping, but in the countryside, there is no such thing as scrapping.
"Ride in this car?" Ye Caiping frowned, isn't this too humiliating? He's a big beauty, can't you at least find a decent-looking car for her? If they were in the city, who knows how many young masters would be chasing after her in their luxury cars.
This car is really bad, one of the two rearview mirrors is gone, and the taillight in the back is tied up with a rope. Upon closer inspection, it still doesn't have a license plate.
"Are you going or not? Otherwise, you can wait for the bus to pass by. The buses to Chengwan Town usually run once an hour, and it's 9:30 now, so the second bus will arrive soon. I'll just drive behind later." Chu Jiaqiang also realized that it wasn't quite right to let a beautiful woman like her ride in this car with him.
"Never mind, I haven't had breakfast yet, take me to have breakfast first!" Ye Caiping shook her head. At this time, she didn't want to leave a bad impression on Chu Jiaqiang or create any distance between them. If she took another car over, Chu Jiaqiang would definitely not say anything, but he would inevitably feel uncomfortable in his heart and think that she was being arrogant.
These words moved Chu Jiaqiang somewhat, and he immediately asked: "Okay, what do you want to eat? Let's go to the old street to eat."
The streets on this side of the new street are spacious and clean, but whether it's eating or buying goods, the old street is better. Ye Cai Ping sat sideways in the car, girls, especially fashionable women, generally sit on motorcycles, sit on bicycles, all sit sideways. This looks a bit strange, a beautiful woman sitting behind a broken motorcycle, looks very out of place, completely mismatched.
Ye Cai Ping wrapped her arms around Chu Jia Qiang's waist from behind, then leaned against his back. She smelled the masculine scent on Chu Jia Qiang and blushed slightly, but felt very happy inside. In the past, when she was in college, seeing other girls sitting at the back of a bicycle, hugging their loved ones like this, made her feel envious and think it was blissful.
Chu's body stiffened, a soft figure approached, and a faint scent of chastity wafted over, stirring up his long-forgotten feelings. His heart skipped a beat. The hands grasping the steering wheel trembled, the car swerved, almost flipping over.
"Dead bandit! You want to kill me?" Just now, the warm scene of Ye Caiyun had not yet had time to carefully savor, was messed up by this, she angrily pounded Chu Jiaqiang once.
Chu Jiaqiang forced a bitter smile and thought to himself: Can I be blamed for this? The real culprit is you. However, he didn't dare say this out loud.
They drove to the old street and stopped in front of a rice noodle shop. Chu Jiaqiang took Ye Caiping inside. The owner was also shocked by this extremely mismatched scene, thinking to herself, "This kid is really something, he's actually got such a beautiful girl in his grasp!" But her mouth didn't slow down, and she immediately asked: "Two handsome guys and beauties, what can I get for you?"
"What did you eat?" Chu Jiaqiang asked again.
"Century egg with lean pork congee, and two more fried dough sticks! How about you?" Ye Caiping took down her own bag.
"I've eaten. Eating fried dough sticks? Aren't you afraid of getting acne on your face?" Chu Jiaqiang had a big breakfast, which surprised even Ershu and the others. He was somewhat puzzled - girls were most afraid of getting acne on their faces; in the past, Cai Zhixuan wouldn't eat fried dough sticks either.
"You've eaten and still want to eat, can't just watch me eat, right? How am I supposed to eat? Afraid of what? I've been eating this since I was a kid, I'm immune." Ye Caiping rolled her eyes and took the liberty of telling the boss's wife: "Just now, bring two portions. Add more scallions, no cilantro."
"Alright! Two bowls of thin porridge with egg and lean pork, with scallions but no cilantro, and four fried dough sticks." The boss's wife yelled into the kitchen, where a big man was stirring the pot. Nowadays, women have turned things around and are in charge.
Breakfast arrived quickly, and Chu Jiaqiang finished a bowl of porridge in two or three mouthfuls, and chewed two fried dough sticks for a few seconds before they were gone. Ye Caiping looked puzzled and said: "Didn't you say you've already eaten?"
"It's nothing special! It's just a bowl of porridge, no different from drinking a few mouthfuls of water. Is it worth making such a fuss?" Chu Jiaqiang said irritably.
