In the past, Gao Chen would have ignored her and left.

But today, after Gao Chen packed his things, he stopped when he heard Dai Qian’s words.

It happened to be raining heavily outside. Gao Chen turned to look at Dai Qian, who was begging him.

“You’re a good woman, but I’m not a good match for you! Dai Qian, you’ve never been involved in my past, so you don’t know what kind of person I am. You only see this side of me and think I’m reliable, but you don’t see my bad side. I won’t ever get married or have children. So, forget me! I’m just a passerby. You can find a better person!” Gao Chen said honestly.

Gao Chen knew how good Dai Qian was to him.

However, from the beginning to the end, Gao Chen didn’t reciprocate her feelings.

He couldn’t offer her anything, so he always refused her advances coldly.

It was also because he was leaving that he said such a thing.

“Why? Everything can start over! I don’t care what happened to you in the past. Can’t we start over? Let’s stay in this village. I have a house and I’m hardworking. You can work hard with me so we can have a family. Isn’t that good?” Dai Qian’s face was covered in tears. She couldn’t accept what Gao Chen had said.

Gao Chen looked at Dai Qian and sighed. Then, he looked in a certain direction.

“Look behind you!”

When Dai Qian heard Gao Chen’s words, she subconsciously turned her head.

In the wind and rain, a man in a raincoat and a bamboo hat was standing not far away and looking over.

“Look, as long as you turn around, you can see a person who treats you better and cares more about you. He can build a happy family with you. However, you keep coveting what doesn’t belong to you and refuse to see what’s behind you.

Sometimes, you have to cherish and be grateful for what you have now. Otherwise, it’ll be too late to regret it after you lose it! In the past, I didn’t understand this, so I ended up like this!” Gao Chen said as he picked up his things and prepared to rush into the rain.

However, Gao Chen thought of something and turned around to walk towards Dai Qian.

Dai Qian thought that Gao Chen had changed his mind and her face lit up.

Unfortunately, Gao Chen walked past Dai Qian and walked towards the man in the raincoat.

“Brother, protecting her from afar isn’t enough. If you really love someone, show yourself in front of her! Otherwise, she’ll never see you! Good luck!”

As Gao Chen spoke, he reached out and patted the man’s shoulder. Then, he rushed into the rain and disappeared in front of the two of them.

As Dai Qian looked at Gao Chen’s departing figure, she wailed.

The man guarding Dai Qian recalled what Gao Chen had said, so he walked in front of Dai Qian…

When Gao Chen arrived at the shop amidst the rain, Li Xiaoran asked Yuan Cheng to bring him to change into dry clothes.

When Gao Chen appeared in the shop again, Mao Dao scooped him a bowl of ginger soup.

“Don’t just stand there. Come and drink the ginger soup. Then, I’ll go with you to tidy up your house!” Mao Dao called out.

After Gao Chen froze for a moment, he drank the ginger soup and took the initiative to wash the dishes. Then, he went to tidy up the room with Mao Dao.

Because there was no business in the shop, Li Xiaoran let everyone rest.

At that moment, a woman carrying a bag arrived in the rain.

Although she was holding an umbrella, the woman was still drenched. However, the woman’s expression was blank and her eyes looked listless. She didn’t seem to care that she was wet.

When Li Xiaoran peeked out of the window, she immediately noticed the woman passing by the shop.

“Ma’am, you’re already wet. Come in and have some ginger soup. Stay by the fire until the rain eases!”

The woman continued walking forward, as if she had not heard anything.

Li Xiaoran sensed that something was wrong, so she took an umbrella and rushed over.

Ling Xuerou looked ahead in confusion. It was as if she couldn’t hear anything and was immersed in her thoughts.

At that moment, a pair of hands pulled her to a stop.

She turned around and saw the face of a girl.

The girl smiled and said to her, “It’s raining heavily outside. Come to our shop to drink some ginger soup and dry your clothes. You can leave after the rain subsides!”

For some reason, upon seeing the smile in front of her, Ling Xuerou nodded and entered a shop not far away.

After Li Xiaoran brought her back, she shouted, “Xiao Qing, quick, scoop a bowl of ginger soup for this girl!”

Li Xiaoqing nodded and quickly went to scoop ginger soup.

When Zhao Xiu saw Ling Xuerou’s condition, she quickly ran over and helped her twist her wet clothes.

“You’re a woman. Why aren’t you taking good care of your body?! Look at you. It’s raining so heavily that most of your clothes are wet. If you don’t dry your clothes quickly, you’ll get sick!”

As Zhao Xiu spoke, she pushed Ling Xuerou to sit in front of the stove.

A fire burned in the stove, giving off a warm glow.

Ling Xuerou sat in front of the stove in sorrow.

Looking at the menu hanging on the wall not far away, Ling Xuerou’s gaze landed on the words knife-cut noodles.

“I want to eat a bowl of sliced noodles!” Ling Xuerou reached out and pointed at the menu on the wall.

“Alright, I’ll cook for you!” Li Xiaoran walked over and replied with a smile. Then, she went to wash her hands and began to knead the noodles before cutting them.

Soon, a bowl of sliced noodles was made. Li Xiaoran even specifically brought a stool over and let Ling Xuerou use it as a table to eat the noodles.

After she took a bite, Ling Xuerou’s eyes finally lit up. Then, she started eating in big mouthfuls.

Soon, she finished the bowl of sliced noodles.

After eating this bowl of noodles, Ling Xuerou took out copper coins and paid for the noodles.

At this moment, the rain outside suddenly lessened. Even the wind seemed to have disappeared.

“Thank you!” After Ling Xuerou said this, before her clothes were even completely dry, she planned to leave with the umbrella.

“Wait! Come back tomorrow!” Li Xiaoran suddenly stopped the person in front of her and said.

Ling Xuerou looked at Li Xiaoran and was stunned.

“Come back tomorrow?” Ling Xuerou looked at Li Xiaoran in confusion and repeated.

“Yes, come back tomorrow! I’m going to make sour and spicy noodles tomorrow. They taste better than sliced noodles! It’ll be a pity if you don’t come and trv them!”

Ling Xuerou frowned and pondered while struggling internally.

“Alright, I’ll definitely come tomorrow!”

With that, Ling Xuerou left with an umbrella..
