C14 I'm the fiance who left

"Xu Zhi?"

Xu Li hurriedly stood up and went to open the door for him.

Xu Zhi was also holding a piece of pork in his hand as he scratched his head in embarrassment.

"I heard from your mother that you're back. The priest at the village entrance killed a few pigs the day before yesterday, so he left one for you."

Saying that, he pushed the pork meat toward Xu Li.

Xu Li didn't stand on ceremony. He took the pork and invited him in.

"No need, no need. I still need to go back to eat. I still need to work in the afternoon. You …" You just need to come back safely. "

Xu Li didn't know what to do, so he could only smile and send him off.

After graduation, he didn't stay in the developed city, but instead came back to be a village official. He was especially honest, diligent in his work, and was the only family in the village that kept vegetables in a large shed. His parents could make money, and his son had good prospects.

But Xu Li just wouldn't agree.

Privately, she denied that she was still young and an orphan. Being a girl who could live a good life was not something she should do. Actually, as someone who didn't even know where her future lay, how could she allow others to live a better life?

His mother had also told him about Xu Zhi several times, whether it was in the open or in the dark. Xu Li pretended not to know and pretended to be a fool. In the end, there was nothing he could do about it.

Xu Li had rejected Xu Zhi several times, but he hadn't driven him away. In the end, he could only let him go, hoping that he had enough time to slowly give up.

After Xu Li had chosen his dishes, he suddenly remembered that Grandma Wang had just seen Li Yuan. The village wasn't big, so Grandma Wang was walking around on her crutches. I'm afraid tomorrow … No, this afternoon, many 'great aunts and uncles' came to offer their condolences.

Thinking of this, she felt a headache coming on. She had always been a dumb person. With so many mouths, she could no longer explain herself.

After finishing his meal, Xu Li closed the door completely, threw Li Yuan aside and went into his bedroom to clean up.

He was still suspicious of Li Yuan's identity, so he did not dare to take out the needle in front of him.

Through the gap in the door, Li Yuan walked around the room, went out, and came back at dinner time.

Xu Li's tense and awkward nerves relaxed. He had been alone in his room, but now there was another person in it. Even his breathing had become a little softer.

Xu Li cooked early in the evening. Since he knew he had to go out to work at night, he ate a little more. He didn't talk to Li Yuan anymore and just ate without raising his head.

Aunt Wang, who was next door, stuck her head in. Xu Li had just finished eating and happened to face him head-on. Fortunately, Li Yuan was still alive and followed behind. Aunt Wang didn't know how to ask, while Xu Li didn't know how to explain.

"Did Aunt Wang eat?"

Xu Li awkwardly ruffled his hair. This was the first time she had brought someone home.

"Ai, ai."

Aunt Wang replied with a smile, but her gaze never left Li Yuan.

Li Yuan magnanimously allowed her to see him. In the end, he grabbed Xu Li's shoulder and very obediently said, "Hello Aunt Wang, I'm Li Li's fiancé, Li Yuan."

"…"

"…"

Xu Li stiffened his body and immediately looked towards Li Yuan. Li Yuan's lips curved upwards. The two of them standing together seemed to have truly become like that.

Aunt Wang nodded in embarrassment. Her feet didn't stop. She took one last look, seemed to sigh, and finally went back.

Xu Li's words didn't come out, but he held it back halfway.

She wanted to explain, but then she suddenly thought of Xu Zhi. Xu Zhi was already 27 years old this year, so his age in the city was nothing, but in the countryside, there were only the fathers of two children. If she waited any longer, the girls of the same age group would all be taken away.

Xu Li didn't speak anymore after this thought reached this point. He watched Aunt Wang leave until he could no longer see her. When he realized Li Yuan's pig hand was still on her shoulder, his face turned cold and he flung Li Yuan's hand away.

"I'm helping you?"

Li Yuan laughed and followed Xu Li into the house.

"Mind your own business."

Xu Li narrowed his eyes and did not appreciate Li Yuan's kindness in the slightest.

The sky was almost completely dark. Xu Li put on a down jacket with only half of his face exposed in the scarf wrapped around his neck and walked towards the wheat field.

The majority of the people in the countryside had maintained the habit of resting under the setting sun. In addition to the cold weather, no one moved in the wheat field. Xu Li stood on the ridge of the field and listened to the peculiar heartbeat in the middle of the wheat field, which seemed to have grown louder.

"Bang, bang, bang ~ ~ ~"

"What's in here?"

Walking a little closer, Xu Li whispered to Li Yuan. After all, he was here for this underground object. He definitely knew what this strange sound was.

Li Yuan squatted down, picked up a stalk of wheat straw and put it in his mouth. He leered at Xu Li and said lightly, "I don't know either."

Xu Li was rendered speechless again. In his heart, he added another label to Li Yuan's body.

"Shameless."

They didn't even know if what this person said was true or not.

Xu Li picked up the box and chanted an accompanying incantation. This way, even without her pulling the box, it would automatically follow.

After bypassing Li Yuan, Xu Li glared at him, circling far away around the source of the sound.

She was used to collecting ghosts by herself, and it was rare for her to travel with other people. Instead, she felt a little unaccustomed, feeling that her hands and feet were tied.

Li Yuan ignored her and just squatted on the spot as if he was lost in thought.

When Xu Li was measuring his position, he saw Li Yuan's figure in the light. He was staring fixedly in her direction, his glowing eyes like pebbles soaked in water in the night, giving off an indescribable feeling of familiarity.

This feeling passed in a flash. Xu Li frowned slightly. She was also enchanted by this beautiful appearance. Indeed, even if a handsome person was to be beaten up, it was still easy to attract attention.

The surroundings were completely silent. The only sound that could be heard was the sound of the wind passing by his ears. It sounded like a white bird flapping its wings to take away time.

By the time she had completed her turn and determined the general location of the thing underground, she turned around and realized that Li Yuan had already disappeared.

"Li Yuan?"

Xu Li didn't understand what Li Yuan was trying to say and shouted in his direction.

Could it be that he regretted giving her the following item?

All these years, she had learned a lot of bad habits, smoked, drank, and scolded people for fighting. Without a proper teacher to fumble around with, everyone who knew her could become her master. As she learned useful things, bad things would inevitably be instilled into her.
