Kissed and Seduced By the Most Rough Man in the Village-Chapter 425: "Go Clean Yourself Up"

Su Xiaoxiao felt as if there were thorns pricking her body.

She looked up and immediately saw the man beside her staring at her with such intense eyes that it felt like they could set her on fire, as if he wanted to burn her to the ground.

"Um... um, I have to get up early tomorrow! I’ll head back now!" Su Xiaoxiao said, her face turning red, waving her hand at him, and turning to run away.

However, Jiang Yexun reached out, gently grabbing the collar of her shirt, teasing with a smile, "What are you afraid of? Do you think I will eat you right now?"

"How could that be! We’re getting married tomorrow!" Su Xiaoxiao raised her voice, her words firm but somehow sounding guilty.

"You know that much!" Jiang Yexun teased her further.

Seeing her face turning even redder, he finally let go.

"Alright, I’ll send you home now."

"I can go by myself."

Su Xiaoxiao rubbed her fingers together secretly, trying to suppress the feelings of both excitement and fear that were bubbling up inside her.

"No! You’re my wife, making sure you’re safe is my responsibility." Jiang Yexun’s gaze was determined, and his deep voice was filled with tenderness.

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t bring herself to refuse, so she allowed Jiang Yexun to escort her home.

Once they arrived, she didn’t even invite Lin Shaoheng inside. She waved her hand at him hastily, "Alright, you should go back now, we’ll see each other tomorrow."

"Mm, see you tomorrow." Jiang Yexun smiled and nodded.

Only after watching the door close behind her, hiding his little wife, did he retract his gaze.

Not wasting any time, Jiang Yexun went straight home.

Mrs. Su and Aunt Guo were both startled when they saw him returning alone.

Jiang Yexun suddenly realized that in his excitement, he had forgotten that his mother-in-law and his own mother were still busy in the small building.

But this explanation could never be said to the elders, so he remained calm and said, "Xiaoxiao has been busy all day, she was a bit tired."

"That’s true, Xiaoxiao is spoiled by us, she usually takes things slow, but today she ran around, so of course, she must be exhausted," Mrs. Su nodded, immediately feeling sorry for her daughter.

Aunt Guo quickly wiped her hands and said to Mrs. Su, "Sister-in-law, why don’t you go home first? Xiaoxiao is alone at home and hasn’t had dinner yet. If she oversleeps, she’ll probably end up eating lunch tomorrow instead of dinner."

"Alright, I’ll leave it to you here," Mrs. Su said, not at all at ease about leaving Su Xiaoxiao alone. She was worried that Xiaoxiao might be hungry or unwell and have no one to look after her.

After handing her apron to Jiang Yexun, she hurriedly went out.

Jiang Yexun followed her, wanting to escort her, but Mrs. Su waved him off, "No need to walk me out, it’s just a few steps, I’ll be fine on my own."

Seeing her insist on this, Jiang Yexun didn’t push the matter further.

After watching Mrs. Su turn the corner, he went back into the yard.

Aunt Guo looked at him and said with a smile, "Alright, we’ve finished what we needed to do. Stop standing around. Go take a shower, remember to shave your beard. After dinner, get some rest."

"Mom, sorry to trouble you." Jiang Yexun looked at the chopped vegetables and washed fruit in the kitchen, feeling guilty.

Aunt Guo gave him a stern look, "Why are you saying this? As long as you and Xiaoxiao are happy, as her mother, I’ll be at ease."

Jiang Yexun returned to his room, tidied up, and then took a shower to feel fresh.

That evening, He Xingzhi and He Hongni came over for dinner.

Perhaps because they knew that they were living outside because of her, He Hongni seemed more obedient than usual.

However, no matter how she acted, Jiang Yexun and Aunt Guo weren’t going to change their attitude toward her.

After dinner, Aunt Guo took Hongni to wash up, and He Xingzhi stayed in the living room, chatting with Jiang Yexun.

Once they were alone in the room, the atmosphere became awkward for a brief moment.

Jiang Yexun looked at the restless He Xingzhi and took out 1,500 yuan from his pocket, handing it to him.

He Xingzhi was stunned for a moment, then took a step back, "Brother Ye, why are you giving me money? I’m not short of cash."

"We helped catch a spy, this is the reward from above," Jiang Yexun said indifferently.

He Xingzhi was a bit surprised, "We didn’t do much, and we still get so much? Brother Ye, take this 1,000 yuan back. I only need 500. You must have done more behind the scenes. I was just investigating secretly, I don’t need so much."

"The 1,500 yuan reward from above is all here. You can take it all. I’ve already received approval from my in-laws and my brother-in-law, that’s enough for me," Jiang Yexun pushed the money back to him.

But even if he wasn’t taking any, he still needed to make things clear.

"Brother Ye, you’re giving me all this money? That’s not right! The things we did, it should at most be a 3:1 split. You’ve gotten the approval from your wife’s family, I’ve also brought back my sister. I can’t take all of it."

He Xingzhi’s attitude was firm, and he threw the 1,000 yuan back at Jiang Yexun.

Jiang Yexun was about to speak, but He Xingzhi said, "Brother Ye, we’ve always done it this way. You set the rules before."

"Alright." Jiang Yexun sighed helplessly.

Seeing He Xingzhi smiling again, he warned, "This reward and the fact that we caught the spy needs to stay between us. If anyone hears about it, those spies might retaliate."

"Brother Ye, don’t worry," He Xingzhi immediately patted his chest. But the next moment, he couldn’t resist counting the money in his hands.

Earlier, he had been eyeing two small buildings, and the better one was a bit more expensive by 300 yuan.

He had hesitated before, but now with an extra 400 yuan, he was planning to buy it after finishing his work tomorrow.

In the future, he and his sister would both have homes in the big city.

And renting it out would be like having a job in the city.

No matter what, they would never have to worry about food or warmth again.

The next morning, before dawn, Su Xiaoxiao was pulled out of bed by her mother.

Though they couldn’t put up red paper or fire firecrackers, her room was still decorated with red bedding and sheets.

The bright red color made Su Xiaoxiao, already fair-skinned, look even more stunning.

Especially now that she had applied some makeup, she looked like she was glowing.

The Su family didn’t invite many people to the house; there were only about five or six families in total.

But some people wanted to show off in front of Mr. and Mrs. Su, especially Su Hongchen, so despite the small house, it was packed with people.

Su Xiaoxiao’s door was half-open, and everyone was curious, walking over to peek inside. They could see the bride sitting by the bed, waiting.
