The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man novel Chapter 222

Chapter 222: Chapter 221: Third Wheel

Leng Yuan noticed Yun Hao’s gaze and looked up, his own eyes cold and filled with a warning.

When Yun Hao met his gaze, he couldn’t help but recall the image of Leng Yuan slicing halfway through the wild boar’s neck with a sickle. The stench of blood on his face suddenly seemed more unbearable, and leaning on Hu Ziqiang, he dry-heaved a few times.

He didn’t dare to look Leng Yuan in the eye, not even mustering the courage to glance in his direction.

"Ziqiang, help me back to the dorm!"

He didn’t dare to stay any longer.

In his current wretched state, staying would only serve to make Leng Yuan look better by comparison.

At this thought, Yun Hao wished he could flee immediately and forget the humiliating scene from moments before.

Hu Ziqiang didn’t understand his friend’s urgency. Worried about aggravating his injuries, he walked the short distance exceptionally slowly.

Yun Hao: ...

’If it weren’t for the utterly sincere look of worry on his face, I’d suspect Hu Ziqiang was doing this on purpose.’

Gu Jiaojiao hadn’t noticed where Yun Hao went. Seeing there was nothing left for them to do, she reached out and tugged on Leng Yuan’s sleeve.

"Let’s go back!"

The villagers had been calmed down, and the rest could be left to Chen Beiguo.

Leng Yuan naturally had no objection and went over to Chen Beiguo.

"Brigade Leader, we’re heading back now."

Chen Beiguo walked over and clapped Leng Yuan on the shoulder. "We have you to thank for today. Go back and get some proper rest."

Leng Yuan nodded and left with Gu Jiaojiao.

After they left, Chen Beiguo arranged for a few strong men to carry the wild boar to the brigade headquarters.

Then, he walked around the educated youth outpost to inspect the damage.

The inspection made Chen Beiguo frown.

The kitchen had been destroyed by the boar and needed to be rebuilt.

The compound wall had also been knocked over and needed to be rebuilt.

The window of the female educated youths’ dormitory was smashed to pieces, and all four of its glass panes were shattered.

’That wild boar really knew how to wreak havoc.’

’And these educated youths have such bad luck. This was a completely random disaster.’

Chen Beiguo mulled it over for a moment, then called Li Fenggu over.

"Li Zhiqing, about the kitchen and the wall—are you all going to repair them yourselves, or do you want to hire some villagers to help? If you hire people, you’ll need to provide them with lunch and pay them wages."

As for everything else, it would have to wait.

After making the arrangements for the educated youth outpost, he headed back.

「Meanwhile.」

Leng Yuan and Gu Jiaojiao had just left the educated youth outpost when Chen JianShe came running up.

His forehead was beaded with sweat and he was panting heavily; it was obvious he had run the whole way.

Seeing Leng Yuan and Gu Jiaojiao, he gasped, "Sister-in-law, Brother Leng, what happened?"

He had rushed over to help.

Gu Jiaojiao wore a proud expression.

"Leng Yuan killed the wild boar. The Brigade Leader is handling the aftermath, and we’re about to head back."

’I didn’t think it would all be over already,’ Chen JianShe thought. ’In that case, I might as well go back, too.’

Leng Yuan took Gu Jiaojiao’s hand and they walked away.

Chen JianShe followed behind them.

Leng Yuan: ...
