Chapter 2225: Chapter 1883: Let Me Carry That for You (3)
The girl became even angrier immediately: "I already gave you the melon, what more do you want?"
However, the other person innocently replied:
"We welcome all guests who want to get close to nature, but unruly people can easily cause economic losses for our boss. Just in case, ma’am, I’ll escort you to the bus."
The other person suddenly widened their eyes.
...
Meanwhile, Liang An returned to the crowd with the melon, seeing everyone excitedly chatting away, he couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Looking at Xu Cheng, who was still looking at him with bright eyes, he felt a stir in his heart: Is she waiting to eat the melon?
"Sorry," he said, "even though the boss gave us an extra day off today, it’s still our job, so we can’t just ignore it..."
"It’s great!" But Little White Rabbit Xu Cheng, contrary to her previous shy demeanor, now looked at him seriously, even though her face was still a bit red and her voice was still soft.
Liang An felt a stir in his heart again.
He couldn’t help but feel a bit proud: Could it be that his decisive and strong response just now finally moved this girl in front of him?
But then he heard her ask: "Do you often encounter these kinds of situations while working in the village?"
Um...
This question suddenly stumped Liang An.
How should he answer?
If he said yes, it might seem like the village has a bad atmosphere, and his work environment is not great either.
But if he said no, well, whenever there are large-scale gatherings, the security guards have to be vigilant, which is inevitable, a natural human behavior.
Though they could guarantee that until now, not even a single small tomato had been eaten, yet facing this question...
He looked at the girl’s earnest questioning gaze, hesitated for a moment, and eventually nodded:
"It’s okay. There aren’t any major issues in daily life, just people taking things casually. The boss is from the village, and it’s hard for villagers to blame each other, so we have to take care of things beforehand for her."
After he said that, he looked nervously at Xu Cheng, only to see the girl’s eyes slightly curved, sincerely praising: "That’s great!"
Huh?
That left Liang An at a loss, what was so great? Was the job great? Was his answer great? Or was the village great?
Then Xu Cheng glanced at him again: "I can neither argue with others nor win an argument, I really envy you guys for being so proactive and not afraid of getting hurt."
Looking at Liang An’s tall and sturdy build, the smooth lines of his forearm were visible when he stretched out.
And when he exerted himself, his muscles slightly tensed.
To be honest, she was a very timid person, sometimes wanting to say something when seeing injustice but afraid of getting hit.
If a tall and burly man shouting at her, she wouldn’t dare to make a sound.
If she could be like Liang An, how great would that be!
She then looked at Liang An’s foot: "Were you transferred to the kitchen to learn because your legs are not convenient?"
The other party had mentioned before that his leg was injured, but what kind of injury was it? Was it serious? She didn’t know.
Liang An thought for a moment and then asked her: "Are you scared? If you’re not, I can show you."
Huh? Xu Cheng was surprised, then realized and looked at his pant leg:
"I don’t know, I’ve never seen it in real life. If I’m scared, please don’t misunderstand, it’s not that I hate it or reject it, I’m just timid and not prepared..."
When she watched videos of doctors dealing with bloody wounds, it always made her heart race.
Liang An nodded: "I understand."
In those TV dramas, it’s often portrayed how the female lead is scared out of her wits upon seeing the male lead’s wound, leaving him emotionally hurt.
In reality, even those of us who are well-trained and have decent willpower will still be shocked when seeing unfamiliar, indistinct flesh, thinking about its pain.
Ordinary people find it even harder to respond.
Whether you really accept it or not depends on years of adaptation.
He lifted his pant leg, revealing a well-maintained, shiny medical titanium prosthesis underneath.
The end of the wound was encased in a brace, unseen. But just a glance from Xu Cheng made her gently furrow her brow:
"This foot, when you step on muddy ground or run on hard concrete surfaces, is it okay?"
She felt a bit guilty at the same time: "If I had known, I wouldn’t have cheered so hard while you were running."
Although he didn’t ultimately place in the top three, thinking about how he was sweating heavily while running with great effort, it made her feel uncomfortable.
After a pause, Xu Cheng asked: "Our unit is off on weekends, do you have time to come to the urban area?"
This time, it was Liang An’s turn to fall silent.
He sighed: Men sometimes use their vulnerability to gain sympathy, and with sympathy, girls might be willing to invest emotionally.
But he looked at Xu Cheng’s quietly observing gaze and suddenly grinned:
"I’m not to the point of relying on that, right?"
Xu Cheng was taken aback. Then she couldn’t help but laugh: "No, it’s just that you’re so good at handling those who take advantage..."
She really liked this ability.
You know, with her personality, she often encounters those kinds of people who she can’t out-argue, dare not fight, refuse, and they don’t care, and then they come back to blame her.
She says it doesn’t matter, silently refuses, indeed refuses, but can’t argue back, and internally she’s exhausted to death.
Just that one sentence from Liang An, quietly following the unit’s well-known Da Wang, made the other party give up so easily...
She was really envy-ridden!
It felt... especially secure.
