CHAPTER 269: CHAPTER 269: LITTLE QUIRKS BETWEEN LOVERS

Seeing quite a few people around curiously looking over, Qin Shuang hurriedly stepped forward to cover Su Xiaoxiao’s mouth.

If people found out she had just been kissed, she would be too embarrassed to face anyone.

Su Xiaoxiao also realized, noticing there were quite a few people around at the moment, and quickly pulled Qin Shuang to a secluded corner nearby.

As soon as the two of them stood still, she couldn’t help but speak: "Anyway, you’ll marry him sooner or later, a kiss doesn’t mean much, right?"

Qin Shuang’s face turned even redder: "But..."

It was her first kiss, and she hadn’t even reacted before it was gone.

Thinking about what just happened, she felt somewhat uneasy.

She was just about to go to the hot water room to get a kettle of hot water, and as soon as she went over, Zheng Weimin hugged her from behind, then...

"We aren’t even married, how could he..."

Remembering the scene, she couldn’t stop her heart from racing.

In her impression, Zheng Weimin always seemed like a gentle elder brother; she didn’t expect him to become so frivolous after a few years in the army.

"Do you dislike him?"

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but ask, seeing that Qin Shuang’s expression didn’t seem like she disliked him, but rather seemed shy.

Qin Shuang lightly nodded but then quickly shook her head: "I don’t dislike him, just the way he acted scared me."

Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao immediately showed an understanding expression: "If you don’t dislike him, then you like him?"

Alright, so all this fuss was just some romantic fun between a couple.

She worried for nothing, thinking Qin Shuang was being harassed.

Since it’s a little romance between a couple, she shouldn’t interfere.

She reached out and patted Qin Shuang on the shoulder: "Shuangshuang, take your time and calm down here, I’ve got the matchmaking event covered."

The matchmaking event went on from morning till afternoon, and unexpectedly, they actually matched up quite a few couples.

Su Xiaoxiao and Qin Shuang had been so busy, they regretted agreeing to be the hosts.

When the event finally ended, Su Xiaoxiao tried to avoid Song Weidong and Zhou Cheng and was ready to make a run for it as soon as the event ended.

Who knew, just as she went out, she bumped into Qin Shuang, who was also sneakily preparing to leave.

"Shuangshuang, what are you..."

Qin Shuang wrapped her entire face tightly with a scarf and wore sunglasses.

If her eyesight wasn’t good, she wouldn’t have recognized the person as Qin Shuang.

Just as Qin Shuang was about to speak, she suddenly saw something and quickly put the sunglasses she had taken down back on her face.

She pulled Su Xiaoxiao over to shield herself.

Seeing her action, Zheng Weimin smiled: "Shuangshuang, don’t hide, I already saw you."

"Shuangshuang? Who’s Shuangshuang? Comrade, you must’ve mistaken me for someone else."

Qin Shuang deliberately raised her voice to speak.

Zheng Weimin didn’t say anything, just stepped forward, and took off her sunglasses.

The coverings on her face were suddenly taken away, and Qin Shuang raised her hand wanting to cover her face, but her wrist was grasped.

Zheng Weimin firmly pulled her into his arms and said to Su Xiaoxiao: "Comrade Su, Shuangshuang and I have some things to discuss, so we’ll be leaving first."

Having said this, completely ignoring Qin Shuang’s pleading look towards Su Xiaoxiao, he directly picked her up and swiftly left.

Once they were far away, Su Xiaoxiao finally snapped out of it, couldn’t help but click her tongue, and indeed it was just romance between a couple.

Just as she was thinking about this, she saw Song Weidong and Zhou Cheng walking over from not far away.

She hastily covered her face with one hand, mounted her bicycle, and sped away.

Today, because of the matchmaking event, she got off work early. As soon as she biked to the village entrance, she saw two suspicious figures, one fat and one skinny, peeking around the main road, like looking for someone.

Could it be a roadside robbery?

Su Xiaoxiao immediately became alert.

Just when she was about to take a detour, those two suddenly looked up and spotted her, then ran towards her.

Are robbers really this blatant now?

Su Xiaoxiao was startled, quickly turned her bicycle preparing to leave.

Just pedaled a couple of steps, she heard a familiar voice behind: "Comrade Su, wait up..."

She abruptly stopped her bicycle, turned around, and sure enough, the two people running towards her were none other than Liu Dadan and Skinny.

The tension on Su Xiaoxiao’s face instantly turned into anger.

Well, these two stood her up for no reason before, and now they dare come to find her?

They had agreed on the sewing machine deal, but the next day didn’t bring the money, and never came to get the goods, were they messing with her?

She sneered at them.

Being met with her gaze, the two felt inexplicably guilty. They hadn’t refused to come on purpose before, but they had run into something, really couldn’t make it.

Skinny spoke up apologetically: "Comrade Su, don’t misunderstand, we didn’t stand you up intentionally, but really encountered some issues, that’s why we didn’t come by on time with the money and take the goods."

Only then did Su Xiaoxiao notice that Skinny was limping while walking, obviously not daring to use much strength on his right foot, seems he really ran into some trouble and it wasn’t intended.

As Skinny spoke, he drew a wad of cash from his pocket: "Comrade Su, here’s the deposit we agreed upon earlier, about the sewing machines?"

Money is money, so Su Xiaoxiao wasn’t going to refuse money, she immediately took it without hesitation and counted it: "We stick to our previous agreement, come get the goods in three days."

Seeing she wasn’t being difficult because of last time, Skinny breathed a sigh of relief.

He eagerly pulled out a box of cigars from his pocket, handing it to her: "Comrade Su, take this box of cigars as compensation for standing you up the past few days."

That box of cigars looked like good ones.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t take them, her family didn’t smoke at all; the half box of cigars from last time was still in her bag.

"Alright, let’s skip the compensation, just this once; if you stand me up again, our deal is off."

Skinny quickly nodded, this time their attitude was worlds apart from the first time.

There’s no choice, in the future they’d have to rely on this girl, since she could get sewing machines that no one else could, perhaps they could use her help to compete with someone.

"Alright, remember to pick up the goods on time three days from now, or I’ll keep your deposit."

"Comrade Su, don’t worry, even if it rains cats and dogs we’ll definitely be here."

Skinny hurriedly made his promise.

Su Xiaoxiao put the money away and mounted her bicycle: "Alright, see you in three days."

With that, she cycled away.

"Bro, why were you so respectful to that girl?"

After she left, Liu Dadan couldn’t help but ask.

Skinny smacked him on the head: "You don’t understand? Comrade Su has wide connections, she can get things no one else can, maybe we can rely on her to compete with that guy."
