MTL - 90s, The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Paranoid Boss is Reborn-Chapter 17 It turns out she is shy too

Chapter 17 It turns out that she can be shy too

Seeing that the girl wrapped in the rice dumpling quilt had a glaring look in her eyes, and she quickly wrote the words "I will help you solve your problems" on her face, he unknowingly relaxed his brows and chuckled.

 Talk about something without any reason.

Thinking of his usual style, Bai Lu twitched her mouth slightly: "You wouldn't think about taking someone to beat Li Chengbin into submission before buying sand, right?"

Xiao Cheng pinched the neck of his cigarette and remained silent.

Bai Lu couldn't let silence turn into acquiescence, and immediately frowned and disagreed: "Li Chengbin is too insidious and cunning. You will suffer a loss if you go there. Since he can monopolize the sand and gravel market, he must have something to do with some umbrella above. There is no guarantee that what happened today is He deliberately set up a trap and waited for you to fall into the trap and pay for his huge arrears. "

 Xiao Cheng was a little surprised that Bai Lu could think so far. Not only did his analysis make sense, but the final conclusion he reached was roughly the same as him.

But... "What is the umbrella?"

Bai Lu got out of the rice dumpling quilt, leaned close to his ear, and whispered a word.

The soft and waxy voice accompanied by the warm breath spread past his ears. Xiao Cheng moved his fingertips slightly and dropped the cigarette.

Picked it up as if nothing had happened, calmly raised his eyebrows and nodded, expressing his approval of this new code name.

“So, don’t give away Li Chengbin’s life in vain. It’s never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. It’s not too late for him anyway.” Bai Lu immediately shut up after realizing that she had said too much that she shouldn’t have said.

Li Chengbin's father-in-law has a background, and he is a master of both black and white. He also has his own power at the dock, which is equivalent to ruling across the river from Xiao Cheng and others.

 If Xiao Cheng and the others had a tough fight with Li Chengbin, they would not get any good results. But if the big boss behind them took action, they would be able to fight to the death with each other.

 But after so many years, both parties are in peace with each other. It is obvious that you have known each other for a long time, and I know your way.

The big boss took over the debt from his arch-enemy this time. It was obvious that he had a long-planned appetite and began to lend money to others.

 Want to expand the territory and become the overlord of one side.

Xiao Cheng, Luo Shiliu and others who were used as gunmen had fought hard with Li Chengbin in their previous life and were in jail.

 In this life, we cannot make the same mistakes again.

Xiao Cheng didn't seem to notice the strangeness in Bai Lu's words. He just looked at her belly with a distant gaze, and gradually moved up to her face, as if he was making a decision.

Bai Lu’s hair stood up all over her body. She climbed back into the rice dumpling quilt decisively, rolled her eyes and said, “It’s not just the battlefield that has sand, so you don’t have to buy it there.”

"oh?"

 Xiao Cheng retracted his thoughts and waited for her to continue with interest, "If you don't go to the battlefield to buy sand, where else can you buy it?"

 A small building needs to be built with three floors, which requires a lot of sand.

Bai Lu asked: "Do you know the ship owner?"

Xiao Cheng nodded slightly: "I know a few of them."

Bai Lu blinked: "Don't ship owners often transport goods to other places?"

Some words don’t need to be pointed out directly, smart people will understand them immediately.

 “Doing business with the ship owner?”

Xiao Cheng's tone was almost determined. An idea rose in his mind and gradually took shape. He looked at Bai Lu with disbelief, as if waiting for her tacit understanding.

Bai Lu smiled and nodded: "Yes!"

Xiao Cheng knew the shipowners. She knew at the time that she even had a good relationship with one of them. In her memory, last year Xiao Cheng went to the dock to collect the bill. The old cargo ship docked on the riverside was in disrepair and was accidentally hit by a large ship returning from the sea. The ship hit and the hull fell apart and sank on the spot.

The boat owner was injured by a heavy object and would have fallen asleep at the bottom of the river if it had not been for Xiao Cheng who was present.

Later, the ship owner named Jiang Zhengang was extremely grateful to Xiao Cheng for always calling him brother.

Jiang Zhengang’s cargo ship can carry up to 2,000 tons of cargo. It is privately owned and has nothing to do with any battlefield. He sells the sand himself to other provinces.

The dozens of square meters of sand that Xiao Cheng wants to buy are nothing more than a drop in the bucket to him.

The facts were just as Bai Lu thought. The next day, Xiao Cheng went to buy sand from Jiang Zhengang. Not only did the other party greet me with a smile, but he also asked me to load the car without saying a word, and he didn’t even ask for a penny.

 It was time to invite Xiao Cheng to a restaurant for a meal.

 5 yuan per square meter of sand, 35 square meters of sand costs 175 yuan. This meal is quite luxurious.

Of course, Xiao Cheng still gave the money in the end. After all, it was a house built for others, so it had to be discussed on a case-by-case basis.

 Reinforced concrete, quicklime stone, gravel, etc. He also went to buy it, and there were no accidents.

A group of people worked quickly to lay the foundation, and their clothes were stained with cement slurry, as were their shoes.

When Xiao Cheng got home, he took off his clothes and shoes when he entered the room, intending to wash them. The cement slurry would dry out over time and would be difficult to wash off. Just as he put on his pants and picked up clean clothes to put them on, Bai Lu suddenly came in.

 The air was very quiet for a while.

Bai Lu was cooking in the kitchen and ran out of salt. She remembered that she brought it back from Li Shuixian's shop last time, but she forgot to replenish it in the kitchen and put it in the room.

As soon as she entered the door.

I saw the man standing sideways by the wooden wardrobe. He had a strong and lean upper body, well-defined lines, healthy and **** bronze skin, broad and thick shoulders. There was an old scar on his chest and several on his back. Not only does it not destroy the overall beauty, but it adds a bit of masculinity and majesty, full of the oppressive feeling of a victor and a loser.

Bai Lu blushed very unsatisfactorily.

 Don’t look at anything inappropriate!

 Don’t look at anything inappropriate!

 Don’t look at anything inappropriate!

He looked at it several times before covering his face and turning around, "Well, there's no salt in the kitchen. I'll come over and get a bag of salt."

 I didn’t mean to peek at you changing clothes...

There was a chuckle from a man behind him, followed by the sound of the friction of clothes being put on and the slight movement of buttons.

 Then, a bag of salt appeared in front of Bai Lu's eyes, dispelling the exquisite scenery that was still lingering in her eyes.

She grabbed the salt and ran away.

Xiao Cheng touched his nose, and the smile on his lips got bigger. The girl's face still echoed in his mind for a long time, from being caught off guard and stunned, to blatant appreciation, and finally with panicked eyes and blushing dodge.

Turns out she can be shy too.

When Xiao Wei came back, he saw Xiao Cheng washing clothes by the well. He felt a little strange and didn't dare to think too much. He silently put his schoolbag back in the room and went to the kitchen to light the fire.

 After dinner, go back to your room and do your homework.

Bai Lu went into the vegetable garden to make a vegetable plot.

 After laying the foundation, there was still some finishing work to do. Xiao Cheng rested for a while and then went to the next door.

Li Shuixian took advantage of this moment to walk through the streets and alleys, twisting and turning, and made a long circuit to reach the backyard.

 “Lulu.”

The vegetable garden was surrounded by a fence, with a small river nearly one meter wide behind it. When Bai Lu heard the sound, she raised her head with a small hoe.

Then he saw Li Shuixian, wearing a new cotton-padded coat and a round body, gritting her teeth and jumping to the other side of the river.

His right foot landed on the ground, and his left foot stepped on the river bank. A piece of mud collapsed, and half of his foot fell into the water.

It's a good thing that she stopped her feet early, otherwise she fell into the river and caused a storm in the whole river.

 The vegetable garden will suffer.
