Chapter 88 One Step Late

Everyone finally reached the foot of the mountain, relieved and anxious. Those who stayed in the village were also worried, waiting at the foot of the mountain. “They’re back, they’re back.” Someone shouted. “Village chief, is everyone alright?” Everyone was more concerned about the people than how much they had hunted. “Most of them are injured, but not seriously, don’t worry! Is Dr. Liu waiting? The injured should go get bandaged first. We got 30 wild boars today, drain the blood while it’s still warm.” Everyone was ready, they put all the pigs in the village committee.

“Chengxi, you take Ye Zhiqing back! It’s not safe at night.” Qi Chengxi was eager to do so, he quickly caught up with Ye Nanyi. “Brother Qi, why are you here, don’t you need to help?” Qi Chengxi smiled, “My dad said it’s not safe for you to go back alone, I think so too, so I came to see you off.” Ye Nanyi laughed a little, if she met a bad guy, the bad guy should be the one worried. “Nanyi, can you call me Brother Chengxi in the future?” Ye Nanyi didn’t understand what the difference was between that and calling him Brother Ye. “Okay, Brother Chengxi, I’m here, you go back quickly!

” Qi Chengxi waited for Ye Nanyi to close the door before leaving, he didn’t go home, he went to help at the village committee. “Village chief, your third son is back. You still let him go see her off, you don’t know how capable Ye Zhiqing is!” The village chief didn’t care about this, Ye Nanyi was so small, how capable could she be? Seeing that the village chief didn’t believe them, everyone started to act out, which scared the village chief. “Chengxi, is everyone telling the truth?” Qi Chengxi didn’t hide it, after all, many people had seen it. The village chief saw his son nod, and then he believed it. “Chengxi, Ye Zhiqing is so capable, you…”

Qi Chengxi knew what his father meant. “Dad, it’s good that she’s capable, she won’t be bullied.” The village chief choked, was he afraid that others would bully her? He was actually afraid of… “Alright, you’ve been tired all day, go back and rest, your mother has already boiled water.” Qi Chengxi was indeed a little tired, he didn’t stay any longer. After taking a shower, Qi Chengxi thought that You Jie was coming tomorrow, he took out the things he had prepared. Ye Nanyi couldn’t believe that this guy wouldn’t sleep at night, he went to look at the dagger. When Qi Chengxi was about to take the box, he noticed that the position of the box seemed a little off. He didn’t care, he thought it was someone from his family who had come in.

As soon as he opened the box, Qi Chengxi didn’t see the dagger. He was startled, who would take this thing, there was only one possibility, that… Qi Chengxi didn’t dare to think about it, he decided to put this matter aside for now. The next day, Ye Nanyi hadn’t woken up yet when Yu Chunxiang came to call her to eat the pig-killing feast. Ye Nanyi had never eaten a real pig-killing feast. “Nanyi, I’ve ladled you a bowl, come and try it.” Qi Chengxi had come over early to get close to the auntie who was cooking, he asked for a bowl without any fatty meat.

Ye Nanyi took the bowl and tasted it. It was delicious, but it was a bit strong. “Why aren’t you eating?” Ye Nanyi noticed that Qi Chengxi was constantly looking at the road. “What are you looking at?” Qi Chengxi was about to answer when he saw You Jie driving up. “My friend, I asked him to come eat the pig-killing feast.” Ye Nanyi was also curious, she looked at the road, and when she saw the face, she realized it was someone she knew. “Officer You, so you and Brother Chengxi are friends!” You Jie saw Ye Nanyi was also there. “Yeah, I’m here to eat.” Ye Nanyi didn’t want to interrupt them, so she took her bowl and went back to the dormitory. “You Jie, let’s go, to my house.” You Jie glanced at Ye Nanyi’s back, then went home with Qi Chengxi. “You kid, eat more, this wild boar meat is a bit strong but still delicious.” You Jie was startled by Ma Cuifen’s enthusiasm.

“Enough, Auntie, I can’t eat anymore.” You Jie chatted with Qi Chengxi absentmindedly for a while, then he decided to go and give the things to Ye Nanyi. “Chengxi, I have something to do, I’ll go first.” Qi Chengxi looked at You Jie, who was leaving in a hurry, he felt something was strange. Ye Nanyi had just finished eating when she heard a knock on the door. She opened the door and saw that it was You Jie. “Officer You, why are you here?” You Jie didn’t dare to enter Ye Nanyi’s dormitory, he directly handed the things to Ye Nanyi. “I bought some snacks for you, here you go.” Ye Nanyi directly refused. “Officer You, I can’t take it, you take it back.” You Jie was a little anxious.

 “Consider me a friend, just take it.” Ye Nanyi couldn’t refuse, she had to take out the canned food she had made as a gift in return. After You Jie took the canned food, he said goodbye to Ye Nanyi. On the other side, Qi Chengxi, holding the coat he had bought from the supply and marketing cooperative, walked towards the intellectual youth’s point with a smile on his face. When he reached the outside of the intellectual youth’s point, he happened to see You Jie coming out. “You Jie, you were in such a hurry to leave, were you coming to the intellectual youth’s point? Did you come to give your favorite intellectual youth something?”

You Jie’s face turned red from Qi Chengxi’s teasing. Ye Nanyi in the room heard Qi Chengxi’s voice, she opened the door and came out. “Brother Chengxi, why are you here?” Qi Chengxi handed the bag to Ye Nanyi. “I bought you some clothes, try them on.” Ye Nanyi naturally took it. You Jie’s face turned white. He wasn’t stupid, just now Ye Nanyi refused to accept the things he gave her.

But she accepted the things Qi Chengxi gave her so naturally. “Okay, you two chat, I’ll go try it on.” Qi Chengxi smiled, “Okay, see if it fits, if not, I’ll go exchange it.” After Ye Nanyi went inside, You Jie asked tentatively, “Chengxi, is the person you like Ye Zhiqing?” Qi Chengxi answered directly, “Yes.” You Jie looked at the things in his hand, his heart sank to the bottom, but he still asked unwillingly, “Did Ye Zhiqing agree to date you?” Qi Chengxi noticed that You Jie was a bit strange, and then he remembered what You Jie had said. “Yes, Nanyi has agreed to me, when she turns 18, I’ll file a marriage report.” You Jie’s hanging heart finally died.

“Okay, treat her well, I’m going now.” Qi Chengxi looked at You Jie, who was dejected, and felt bad. But he could give up anything, but not his wife. “Brother Chengxi, take a look, it fits pretty well.” Qi Chengxi felt that he had chosen a really good coat. “Brother Chengxi, where is Officer You? Did you finish chatting?” Qi Chengxi had learned from You Jie last time that the two of them knew each other first. “Nanyi, what do you think of You Jie?” Ye Nanyi thought about it carefully. “He’s quite responsible, and he’s a good person, why are you asking this?”

Qi Chengxi quickly found an excuse. “I’m a little jealous, you two knew each other first.” Ye Nanyi was speechless for a moment at Qi Chengxi’s honesty. “Ye Zhiqing, I’m back, this is something my little brother asked me to bring you.” Ye Nanyi didn’t expect Xing Jun to come at this time.
