Chapter 406
The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s
Low and behold, Wen Rugui looked motionlessly at Sun Manrou laying on the ground for a long, long while.
Then, suddenly, right when Sun Manrou was about to say something, he turned around and took off running.Sun Manrou, â? ? ?âLooking at Wen Rugui who was running away at full speed, Sun Manrou was so shocked that her mouth dropped open.When she recollected herself, she quickly said in a girly voice, âWhere you going, Comrade Wen? My foot hurt so muchâ¦â¦âWen Rugui shuddered when he heard the voice and picked up his speed even more. He was entirely gone from her sight in no time.Sun Manrou, ââ¦â¦âWen Rugui ran all the way home and noticed that there was a stranger in the living room.The man scanned him up and down like a machine gun with his eyes.Wen Rugui had no idea who the man was but he greeted him politely anyway, âHow do you do?âCommander Xiao finally looked a little pleased.Old Mr. Wen harrumphed. âYou donât need to greet this man. Heâs just someone who refused to leave our house.âWen Rugui, ââ¦â¦âCommander Xiao, ââ¦â¦âCommander Xiaoâs face was red from anger. âHey, Old Stubborn, you should keep in mind that I am Xueluâs real grandfather. Donât come groveling when I object the two to be together!âWen Rugui was taken aback a little when he heard the âreal grandfatherâ part. âWhatâs going on, Grandpa?âOld Mr. Wen harrumphed again and said, âPay him no attention. Heâs just a half-assed grandfather. Besides, Xuelu just said that she would need to talk to her siblings about it. She hasnât even decided whether she is going to recognize you as her grandfather!âCommander Xiao felt that he had been stuck with a knife, ââ¦â¦â¦â¦âSeeing that the two were bickering and nobody explained what was going on to him, Wen Rugui headed toward the kitchen.Tong Xuelu was making a chiffon cake for Uncle Zong.Uncle Zong was a happy 50-year-old child. His cheeks were red and he secretly wanted to become Tong Xueluâs foot soldier instead.Wen Rugui could smell a very pleasing aroma as he walked over to the kitchen. âUncle Zong, Xuelu, what are you two making?âTong Xueluâs lips curved upward when she heard Wen Ruguiâs voice. âYou are back. I am making a chiffon cake for Uncle Zong.âUncle Zong smacked his own forehead and said, âIâve forgotten to feed Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu. I should go do that now.âHaving said that, he hurried off and left the kitchen to the two youngsters who rarely get to see each other.Tong Xuelu secretly gave Uncle Zong a thumbs up.Wen Rugui looked at Tong Xuelu with his ink-black eyes and asked, âI heard the old comrade outside saying that he is your real grandfather. What is going on?âTong Xuelu recounted what happened to him.Wen Rugui frowned when he heard that Sun Manrou accused her of two-timing.Tong Xuelu shoved a piece of the pork jerky that she had brought with her into his mouth and asked, âWere you rushing to get home? You ran so fast that you are sweating.âHer fingers were white and distinguished, looking like green onions.Seeing how she was feeding him as though he was a child, the tips of Wen Ruguiâs ears turned red. âI ran into Sun Manrou on my way home. She fell onto the ground and asked me to help her up.âTong Xuelu raised her brows, âWell, did you?âWen Rugui shook his head like a rattle drum. âNo, I turned and dashed.âTong Xuelu paused for a little and busted out laughing. âWhy did you turn and dash?âWen Rugui looked at her with his black eyes. âI donât like her. She bad mouthed you last time.âSun Manrou said that she worked with a bunch of men in the kitchen and implied that she had poor character. He disliked what she said.Besides, he did not like touching other women or did he wish for them to touch him.Tong Xueluâs smile extended into her eyes. She glanced outside the kitchen and saw that Old Mr. Wen and Commander Xiao were still busying bickering with each other.She leaned into Wen Rugui, stood on her tiptoes and gave him a light peck on his cheek.âThis is your reward!â
