Chapter 120 What's in Your Hand
Anjiu carefully savored the meaning of these words.
As her last sentence was very ambiguous, Pu Huai misunderstood her - he thought she was in love.
"Come to class as usual in the afternoon."
After saying this, Pu Huai turned and left.
Only after he disappeared into the corridor did An Jiu pick up his feet and walk towards the elevator.
This misunderstanding is a good cover-up.
Her goal is to learn from Pu Huai. It doesn't matter what he does as long as it doesn't affect her.
When they thought about it this way, they realized that their ideas were actually the same.
Before I even entered the house, I heard Ji Zhenzhen chatting with her grandmother in a loud voice.
Anjiu pushed the door open and the two people sitting on the bed turned around and looked at him at the same time.
"Xiaojiu, you're off work so early today?"
"Hey, did you get a haircut?"
An Jiu nodded calmly: "Well, the work is done, the leader asked us to leave work early, what are you doing?"
She sat on the edge of the bed and picked up a piece of coarse cloth that Ji Zhenzhen brought.
Grandma stopped sewing and said, "I asked her to bring a piece of cloth last time to patch up the holes in her clothes. She can still wear them for a while."
Ji Zhenzhen reached out and touched her hair, looking at her from side to side in curiosity.
An Jiu looked at him a little at a loss, "What's wrong?"
"A bit..." Ji Zhenzhen grinned, "handsome."
Anjiu laughed and shook his head speechlessly.
"Hey Xiaojiu, did you see Captain Pu when you came back?"
After Ji Zhenzhen finished speaking, grandma also looked over.
Anjiu's expression did not change at all, and he asked, "What happened to the captain?"
"It's nothing serious. He just asked me to collect some grass seeds, saying he wanted to make oil. I thought he had no use for that, and he had never cooked before. I thought the captain wanted to take care of you, so I asked if you met him."
Grandma looked at Ji Zhenzhen in confusion, "Why would Captain Pu give us such a valuable thing? We are already very well taken care of by him on weekdays! Xiaojiu, you were working in the workshop today, didn't you see Captain Pu go there?"
Anjiu remained calm, "There are many people queuing up to get their oil pressed in the workshop. We are so busy that we don't even need to see who is there."
"That's true." Ji Zhenzhen muttered, "I went there last time. There were so many people and the workers were so busy that they had no time to rest. It made me dizzy just watching. Xiaojiu, I didn't expect you to be able to endure hardships."
"It's okay, just take a nap and you'll be fine."
Physical fatigue and mental fatigue are different. A good night's rest for the former will make you feel energetic the next day, but the latter cannot be relieved simply by a good night's sleep.
Ji Zhenzhen seemed to understand but nodded with empathy.
"Indeed, no matter how tiring mining is, I just need a good sleep..."
At this time, there was a creaking sound of the iron door opening next door. She immediately stopped talking, and after confirming that it was Pu Huai, she jumped up and said, "I'll go over and ask him."
Ji Zhenzhen ran out in a hurry.
Grandma held the string with her hands and frowned, "Why is this girl so crazy?"
"That's just her personality."
Anjiu lay down on the bed and stretched his body.
"Xiaojiu, you should go over and take a look too."
"...Grandma, what am I going to do there? I'd better not go."
"Captain Pu usually takes good care of us. He didn't disturb your work when he went to press oil. He is a good man! We don't have much to give at home, and we can't always rely on his kindness. If you know better, go to his place more often and say something nice to make him happy. Ah, listen to grandma and go quickly."
Grandma kept pushing her and urging her to sit up, but Anjiu couldn't.
"I still have a lot of things in my space, how about giving him one?"
It would be too embarrassing to go there empty-handed.
Especially since it was quite unpleasant at that time.
Grandma whispered, "Don't be too conspicuous."
An Jiu rummaged through the space and took out a piece of chocolate, "Is this okay?"
The rest was all meat, and she couldn't bear to part with it.
"Okay, okay, this is good!" Grandma was very satisfied.
Anjiu got out of bed and put on his shoes, rushing over to Ji Zhenzhen.
next door.
Ji Zhenzhen tilted her head and asked Pu Huai in disbelief: "Captain, is there no oil left? You really didn't leave a single bottle for me?"
Pu Huai supported his forehead with his fingers, his tone a little impatient.
"Ji Zhenzhen, how many times do you want me to say it?"
Ji Zhenzhen froze for a moment and instinctively shrank back, but then she pointed her finger and said unconvincedly: "I clearly saw it all. What's in your pocket? I spent a lot of effort to get the grass seeds, so leave some for me. Who do you think that bottle is for? A little wine?"
Anjiu's feet were suspended in the air as he was about to walk over, and he turned around while maintaining this posture.
But it happened that at this time——
"Xiaojiu, please be fair!" Ji Zhenzhen grabbed her as she was about to run away, twisted her face and forced her to turn to face the sofa, "Captain, you should have left me some at least. Everyone has relatives. I need to give gifts to others, too, but you didn't leave me any!"
Pu Huai's fingers slowly moved away from his forehead, revealing a pair of eyes that were sharper than ever before.
His facial features did not appear to be very handsome, and he seldom smiled. He always looked indifferent and distant, and at this moment, this feeling was even more exacerbated.
Anjiu could hardly bear the sharpness of the sword, which seemed to pierce through her directly.
Her eyes dodged uncontrollably, "...I don't know."
"Ah?" Ji Zhenzhen came closer and gnashed her teeth, "Just say that I'm right! Even if I don't have any credit, I've worked hard. It's not easy to collect grass seeds. I went to many places and knocked on every door..."
"Ji Zhenzhen." Pu Huai's voice was much lower than before, as if he was suppressing his anger, "Take it and leave."
He threw something across the air, Ji Zhenzhen let go of Anjiu and caught it, she looked up and down in the dim light and was happy.
"I knew you were a good captain! I'm leaving right now!"
As she ran, she pushed Anjiu inside and shouted, "Xiaojiu, you must have something to talk to the captain about, right? I won't bother you guys anymore, I'm going back to chat with grandma!"
An Jiu was pushed by her and staggered, and he had to brake suddenly to avoid hitting Pu Huai's long legs.
Looking at Pu Huai who was so close to him with a cold face, An Jiu felt like cursing him.
"Captain Pu..." She thought quickly, "I came here to ask if today's training can be advanced?"
It was a very close distance, so close that she could smell his scent - a faint scent of water vapor - and so close that she could clearly see his eyes looking her up and down.
"What do you have in your hand?"
Anjiu tightened his fingers half-hidden behind his back.
Such a small thing can be discovered...
Meeting the sharp light in Pu Huai's eyes, she was suddenly startled, slowly raised her hand, spread out her five fingers, revealing the small chocolate in her palm.
Pu Huai was obviously stunned.
Anjiu licked his lips and was about to say something.
He raised his eyes: "For me?"
"……Um."
