Chapter 89: Chapter 89
When Meng Cheng’an heard that the troublemaker wasn’t Lu Feng, the fierceness on his face eased a little.
A few steps away, Lu Feng was inexplicably beaten and felt so aggrieved he wanted to bite someone.
Tian Chuying tugged at him, "Lu Feng, let’s go back to town and check your injuries."
Because of plotting against Tian Xiang earlier, Tian Chuying avoided eye contact with Tian Xiang, not daring to look in her direction at all.
How could Tian Xiang let her go? She walked over in a few steps and grabbed Tian Chuying’s collar, "Why were you running just now? What did Lu Weihua give you to make you help her ?"
Tian Chuying couldn’t reveal those things, she just shook her head incessantly, "Sis, I was scared too!"
Now she knew how to call her sister.
Tian Xiang was seething with anger and slapped her again.
Tian Chuying covered her face and started crying, sobbing, "Hit me, just kill me, I don’t want to live anymore..."
Last night she almost got assaulted, and now slapped twice; she was depressed enough to want to die.
Tian Xiang spat fiercely, "If you want to die, roll away from here." Dirtying her hands.
Tian Xiang didn’t bother with Tian Chuying anymore, picked up her bag, and pulled Meng Cheng’an towards the town.
Both of them were injured now, they obviously needed to visit the town clinic.
The ox cart parked on the roadside was chased away by that hooligan Lu Weihua, so they could only walk back.
Their figures gradually moved forward.
Behind them, Lu Feng pressed down on his bleeding nose, glanced at Tian Chuying sitting on the ground, and also slowly headed towards the town.
Seeing Lu Feng leave, Tian Chuying definitely couldn’t just sit there, she quickly got up and went to support him.
Seeing those two in front of them also supporting each other, Lu Feng didn’t shake off Tian Chuying anymore.
After walking for a while, everyone’s emotions settled somewhat, and their minds became clearer. Tian Chuying asked Lu Feng, "Earlier, why were you in the forest?"
It was purely coincidental; Lu Feng had diarrhea since last night. He tried working a bit in the morning but couldn’t continue and told Director Liu he was heading back to town to see a doctor.
When he reached this intersection, he saw the ox cart on the road and heard some noise from the forest, so he went in to check it out.
By chance, he became a hero saving a beauty.
If Meng Cheng’an hadn’t appeared or if Tian Xiang hadn’t repelled him, those two could have achieved something clinging to each other.
Pity Tian Xiang kept guarding against him.
Lu Feng was already infuriated after being hit by Meng Cheng’an and didn’t want to explain much, so he asked Tian Chuying, "What about you, what happened just now?"
Why did Tian Xiang hit her? And from the tone, Lu Weihua’s matter seemed to be related to her.
Mentioning earlier again made Tian Chuying’s heart tighten, even her steps faltered.
She steadied herself and said, "I left something in the village and went back to get it. I don’t know what Tian Xiang and Lu Weihua were tussling about."
Simply don’t admit it.
As for Lu Weihua, she helped him, but his failure was his own problem, nothing to do with her.
If he dared to spill those matters, she’d fight him to the end.
Thinking of last night’s incident, Tian Chuying stopped walking and gradually loosened her grip on Lu Feng’s hand.
Lu Feng looked at her perplexedly, "What’s wrong?"
Tian Chuying’s eyes gradually reddened, "Why didn’t you come last night?"
If he had met up last night, none of the subsequent issues would have happened; she wouldn’t have been threatened by Lu Weihua.
It all stemmed from Lu Feng’s actions.
Seeing Tian Chuying’s mixture of anger and pity, Lu Feng sensed something was amiss, something must have happened last night.
No worries, he’ll get the details from Lu Weihua.
Speaking of last night’s date made Lu Feng furious.
In such cold weather, with the rescue team camping in the village, so many eyes watching while they arranged a funeral, exhausted after a day, who wouldn’t want to rest early? And yet the woman still called him out, utterly baffling.
If it weren’t for her help with Widow Jiang’s matter, grabbing some leverage over him, Lu Feng really wouldn’t want to deal with her.
She was too foolish, self-righteous, thinking he truly regarded her as his partner, yet she meant nothing actually.
Lu Feng hadn’t intended to go last night anyway, and then encountered sudden diarrhea, stuck in the pit unable to leave. So when Lu Weihua, who also came to the toilet, was going over, he asked him to tell Tian Chuying to go home.
Both Lu Weihua and Lu Feng were playboys, sharing the same bad taste. Ignoring Tian Xiang’s issue, they had a decent relationship privately.
Lu Weihua went over and encountered Tian Chuying nearly getting assaulted, leading to the subsequent events.
Now when Tian Chuying asked, he explained he had diarrhea.
"I asked Lu Weihua to inform you, did he go over?"
Tian Chuying was a bit stunned. Lu Feng asked her again, and she nodded, "Yes, he did."
Lu Weihua was called over by him.
Tian Chuying suddenly didn’t know what to say.
If Lu Weihua hadn’t gone, she would have been finished last night.
But she got caught by Lu Weihua.
Tian Chuying wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. For a moment, she felt utterly fatigued.
Returning to four years ago, life gave her such a good opportunity, nearly half a year passed, yet she didn’t achieve anything, and her relationship with Lu Feng made no progress either, even having to sneak around.
Besides, she realized Lu Feng wasn’t that enthusiastic towards her.
She used to blame Tian Xiang, believing she was too alluring and kept drawing Lu Feng’s interest.
Look at the two supporting each other ahead, Tian Xiang was clearly better to that Meng than to Lu Feng.
This time Tian Chuying endured the snowstorm to prevent any occurrence between Tian Xiang and Lu Feng.
Yet all along the journey, Tian Xiang barely turned up around Lu Feng, and Tian Chuying even saw the disdain for him in her eyes.
On the contrary, Lu Feng said they’re dating, but his gaze subtly kept an eye on Tian Xiang.
Of course, returning wasn’t entirely fruitless either.
She entered the textile factory, took the job Tian Xiang obtained in the past life.
But Tian Xiang, in this life, moved to a better position, completely scoffing at the ordinary role in the textile factory.
In comparison, Tian Chuying felt a misleading sense that Tian Xiang was the one reborn, while she amounted to nothing.
Tian Chuying felt deeply disheartened, pondering that last night’s incident might spread and she might end up worse than in her previous life, feeling indescribably troubled.
Seeing Tian Chu standing there in a daze, Lu Feng glanced at the disappearing figures ahead, went over and held her hand, asking, "What’s wrong?"
He was already annoyed being pestered these past few days, but they had shared secrets, he didn’t want to strain their relationship.
Tian Chuying looked up at Lu Feng, "We’re dating, right? Are you serious with me?"
Lu Feng looked slightly stiff, "Why bring this up out of nowhere?"
Tian Chuying shed tears, "I just want a definitive answer."
No matter how well Tian Xiang fares, as long as Lu Feng truly values her, when college exams resume and Lu Feng attends university, she’ll turn the tides.
With such pressure for an answer, Lu Feng could only nod.
Tian Chuying wiped the tears from her face, "Alright, when we go back this time, I’ll visit your home, let’s make our relationship public."
