After Marrying Him, the Ending Has Changed-Chapter 140 - : What a Temper

Chapter 140: Chapter 140: What a Temper

But Jiang Changhai still stuffed them into his hand.

After resting sufficiently, the two sides shouldered their sunflower seeds and split up to go about their business.

He first stopped by the commune primary school and, after waiting a few minutes, the students began to trickle out.

Yu Cheng, tall and handsome, clad in a cool leather jacket and trendy sneakers, simply stood at the school gates and effortlessly attracted all the students’ attention.

Many students, instead of heading home after exiting the school, stayed around to steal glances at him.

...

When Jiang Mianmian came out, she could tell something was off.

Normally, the schoolkids, like birds released from their cages, would rush to fly home, but today, why couldn’t they seem to leave the school gate?

It wasn’t until she passed through the gates that she realized why her classmates were behaving so oddly today; they were all sneakily watching Yu Cheng.

“Little Lamb, over here.” Yu Cheng spotted Jiang Mianmian at a glance; she was very noticeable in the crowd.

Most of the other kids had dark, sallow skin and wore clothes made to withstand dirt, only she wore a soft pink cotton-padded jacket and revealed a tender little face.

At Yu Cheng’s call, Jiang Mianmian suddenly felt the gaze of all the students in the school falling on her.

However, even if Yu Cheng hadn’t called out to her, she would have spotted him right away.

After all, he was tall and leggy, standing at the school entrance, standing out like a crane among chickens.

Under the envious or jealous gazes of the many students, Jiang Mianmian quickly ran to Yu Cheng’s side: “Brother Yu, why are you alone? Where’s my dad?”

“Uncle Jiang and your aunt went to the next town to sell sunflower seeds. They asked me to come and pick you up for dinner. Let’s go,” Yu Cheng explained and then began to stride forward, not liking the feeling of being stared at by so many people.

After walking for a while, however, he didn’t hear any footsteps behind him, so he looked back to see the little girl struggling to keep up with him, vigorously pumping her short legs.

Seeing her like this, the impatience Yu Cheng felt from being gazed at by everyone vanished instantly.

He coolly stood with one hand in his pocket, waiting for Jiang Mianmian to catch up before speaking: “If you can’t keep up, why didn’t you call me?”

“Who says I can’t keep up? I can keep up,” Jiang Mianmian retorted, staring with her big watery eyes, quite unyielding. In her past life, she also had a pair of long legs, alright?

“Alright, you can keep up. Let’s go,” Yu Cheng said, ruffling her hair, then naturally bent down and took her hand as they walked together.

This time, they weren’t in a rush, and upon arriving at the state-owned restaurant, Jiang Mianmian ordered a lion’s head meatball, Yu Cheng ordered Beggar’s Chicken, and they both enjoyed a fine meal.

“Are you full?” Yu Cheng asked.

Jiang Mianmian nodded: “Yeah, I’m full; let’s go to the cinema.”

But Yu Cheng said, “No rush, let’s go to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative first, I need to make a phone call.”

He planned to call his buddies in Capital City.

After all, it had been such a long time since he had left Capital City without having contacted them.

At the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, Jiang Mianmian conscientiously went off to the side to look at stuff, not disturbing him while he made the call.

Yu Cheng got through to Cheng An’s home; it took a while before someone on the other end picked up.

It was the family’s housekeeper who answered, and after he asked to speak with Cheng An, it took a moment before he heard his voice.

“Hello, is that Yu Cheng?” Cheng An’s voice came through somewhat anxiously.

“It’s me,” Yu Cheng replied with his usual cool indifference.

But Cheng An was very excited: “Hey, big brother, you finally remembered to call us. Do you have any idea how worried we were about you? You’re so daring, to run away from home all by yourself? Your dad blew his top because you ran away; he must be worried sick about you!”
