Get it tomorrow?
Is she creating an excuse for meeting again?
Yes!
It must be the case.
So, this is all the cunning that Ni Yang has? Mo Baichuan thought to himself. Mo Baichuan continued, “Why wait for another day when it can be done today?
My watch… it’s very valuable.”
Very valuable?
As if suggesting that she has some kind of ulterior motive.
Ni Yang frowned slightly and lightly said,
“But I don’t have it with me today. I’ll definitely bring it tomorrow, you can come and get it tomorrow.” She couldn’t always carry such a valuable item with her. What if she loses it?
“Where did you put it?” Mo Baichuan slowly lifted his gaze.
“It’s at home.” NiYang replied.
“Let’s go.” Mo Baichuan stood up from the bench.
Go?
Go where?
Ni Yang frowned, “Where to?”
“To your home.” Mo Baichuan said with an indifferent tone, and then added three more words, “To get the watch.”
Go to her home?
Ni Yang frowned slightly. The social climate wasn’t that open yet, what would it mean if she brought back a man to her house for no reason?
Seeing her reaction, Mo Baichuan continued, “You don’t want to return it to me?”
” Are you serious about going?” Ni Yang raised an eyebrow slightly.
Mo Baichuan maintained a calm expression, “Of course, I am.”
“Okay.” Ni Yang nodded, “Since you insist on going, then wait for me. I need to clean up here before I can go home.”
“Hmm.” Mo Baichuan nodded slightly, concise in words.
With Mr. Mo Baichuan standing there, the air around him seemed inexplicably colder.
Consequently, the number of passersby turning their heads back increased.
Ni Yang distinctly remembered that the missy in bell-bottoms and sunglasses had passed by here more than five times.
After tidying up, Ni Yang began moving the tables and chairs into Li Dongliang’s shop.
The shop wasn’t far from here.
From Mo Baichuan’s perspective, he could clearly see the young man in white standing at the door, laughing and talking with Ni Yang. It seemed like he even handed something to Ni Yang.
Most importantly, Ni Yang actually accepted it.
Seeing this, Mo Baichuan’s face darkened involuntarily.
A girl from a good family, chatting so happily with a man under the bright daylight.
And wasn’t Ni Yang playing hard to get with him just now?
Why did she turn around and flirt with someone else so quickly?
Seeing this, Mo Baichuan became even more restless and strode towards Ni Yang.
Mo Baichuan had a tall and straight figure, and came from a distinguished background, so he emanated an imposing aura that was hard to ignore.
This strong aura quietened Li Wei who was in the midst of a conversation. He instantly stopped talking, looked behind Ni Yang, and whispered, “Who is he?” Last time it was Song Beicheng, now it’s Mo Baichuan.
Li Wei felt, the men appearing next to Ni Yang were not simple characters.
“Who?” Ni Yang turned around with a curious look.
As she turned around, she saw Mo Baichuan with an imposing look.
“A customer who came for noodles.” Ni Yang turned her gaze slightly and said casually.
A customer who came for noodles?
Mo Baichuan’s expression remained the same, but his dark eyes slightly lifted, deep and inscrutable.
He disliked the term ‘customer’ somewhat. He turned his eyes to Ni Yang and asked in a slightly cold tone, “When should we go?”
We?
Catching onto the word, Li Wei looked at Ni Yang with a scrutinizing gaze.
It seemed that Ni Yang had a more than normal relationship with this man.
If not, he wouldn’t use the word ‘we’.
For a moment, Li Wei felt a hint of unspoken bitterness in his heart.
Ni Yang, with her head bowed, said: “Wait a little longer.”
However, Ni Yang didn’t intend to bring Mo Baichuan back home.
After packing up everything, she said, “Wait here, I will quickly return the wristwatch!” Having said that, she hopped onto her bicycle and quickly rode away.
Mo Baichuan was left standing there, a little slow to react.
Why did Ni Yang just leave?
Wasn’t she supposed to use this chance to bring him to her home and get him acquainted?
What was Ni Yang trying to do?
Was she trying to entice him with a new strategy?
Mo Baichuan narrowed his eyes.
A new strategy, eh?
He wouldn’t let her succeed!
Ni Yang had good physical stamina, so her bicycling speed was extremely fast; less than an hour had passed when she returned.
However, when she arrived, Mo Baichuan was nowhere to be found.
“She is crazy!”
Ni Yang couldn’t resist muttering under her breath.
Even though they both were part of the Mo family, his actions were far from those of Mo Qishen!
Ni Yang was so angry she felt like kicking Mo Baichuan to death.
What a piece of junk!
Ni Yang took a deep breath, trying hard to calm herself down, tucked the wristwatch back in her pocket, and headed for the nearest Xinhua bookstore to pick out some books.
Ni Yang selected beginner-level books, annotated storybooks with Pinyin, and a few books with models for calligraphy.
These books would be of great help to Ni Cuihua, who was just learning to read.
The total cost of five books amounted to 6 yuan.
Although quite expensive, NiYang didn’t regret it as knowledge is priceless.
After Ni Yang returned home, she gave these books to Ni Cuihua.
Ni Cuihua said affectionately, “Yangyang, these must have cost a lot, right?” Knowing Ni Cuihua would be worried about the money, Ni Yang laughed and said, “It’s not much, just a few cents.”
“Really?” Ni Cuihua asked, suspicious.
“Of course, it’s true!” NiYang nodded hurriedly, “You think about it, our delicious noodles only cost 3 cents per bowl, how much can a few books be worth?”
Hearing this, Ni Cuihua was relieved.
She was always afraid that Ni Yang would waste money on her, after all, Ni Yang’s money was meant to be used to buy shops and make a big deal.
“Sister Ni Yang!” At that moment, the voice of Yang Guobao rang out from outside the courtyard.
“Guobao, come in,” NiYang called back.
Yang Guobao walked in carefully with a basket in his hands, “Sister Ni Yang, my grandma and mother asked me to give this to you!”
Ni Yang looked down and saw the basket was full of brown eggs.
Each egg looked almost the same size, piled together, they looked exceptionally pleasing.
Because meat was expensive, eggs were considered quite valuable at this time, with each one costing one cent.
And to have such a full basket of eggs, probably took a long time to accumulate.
Ni Yang said, “I can’t accept this, you should take it back.”
“No!” Yang Guobao replied, “My mom and grandma said you had to accept these eggs today, otherwise, they wouldn’t let me go home!”
Ni Yang gave a gentle pat on Yang Guobao’s head, “Guobao, be obedient, I appreciate the intention, but I really can’t accept this, take it back.” “Anyway, I’ve already brought the eggs here! Sister, you have to take them!” Having said that, Yang Guobao quickly ran away.
Ni Cuihua smiled and said, “Guobao’s behavior has been improving a lot lately! Yangyang, since this is a sincere offering from Meifeng and Aunt Wang, let’s accept it. Didn’t you bake some fruit and bread yesterday? When returning the basket later, bring some as a return gift.”
Ni Yang nodded, “Alright, I’ll go and empty the basket now.”
Ni Yang went inside, emptied the basket, lined it with a piece of paper, and placed in four pieces of bread, dried apples, and bananas.
Remembering that Aunt Wang had two grandsons and a granddaughter, Ni Yang added a good handful of candies and finally covered the basket with a piece of cloth with blue floral patterns.
People were coming and going in the village, it wouldn’t be good to not give anything if they encountered an acquaintance. But, if they gave something and there were many people, there might not be enough, which could offend someone, so just covering the stuff was the safest solution.
