He Xing was not interested in her reaction. Seeing that she was standing at the door for a long time without saying anything, he reached out to close the door. Seeing He Xing reach out to close the door, the aunt came back to her senses and quickly stretched out a foot to block it. “Wait a minute! 1 want to borrow something from you!” The aunt stopped and stared at He Xing expectantly as if she was waiting for him to ask.
However, He Xing disappointed her. He was not curious about what she wanted to borrow at all.
He Xing rejected her straightforwardly. “No!”
Hearing this, the old woman’s face was filled with disbelief. “Young man, I haven’t said what 1 want to borrow yet you already rejected me. You look like a decent person, but why is his heart so ruthless? I see that you’re using a tent. Why don’t you take pity on me, an old woman, and lend me your tent? The three of you are all young. You can sleep however you want. It doesn’t matter if you have a tent or not! My family’s situation is special. My two grandsons are still young, so they need a good resting environment…”
Hearing the aunt’s words, Du Yue and Xia Ju looked at each other, their heads full of question marks. He Xing was also confused. “Whether your grandchildren can rest well or not has nothing to do with me, right?”
The old woman widened her eyes. “How can it have nothing to do with you?! At this time, children are our hope and continuation in the future! As adults, shouldn’t you pay for the future of the country…”
He Xing did not give her a chance to continue and closed the door. He Xing closed the door with great force. The aunt was so frightened that she took a few steps back.
When the aunt finally managed to stand firm, all she saw was the tightly shut door. The old woman was stunned on the spot, but she quickly came back to her senses. She went forward and knocked on the door with all her strength. “You’re so young, why don’t you have any kindness at all?! Didn’t anyone teach you that children are the flowers of the motherland and require everyone’s protection? Besides, you don’t have children now. You’ll understand when you have children in the future!”
No matter how much the aunt shouted outside, it did not affect He Xing in the room. He Xing walked straight back and sat down without changing his expression.
Du Yue could not help but pat He Xing’s shoulder. “I pity you.” He was stopped by that kind of person and had to listen to her nonsense for so long.
He Xing shook his head. “It’s okay. It’s better for me to be pitiful than you!”
These words of love were really old-fashioned but inexplicably sincere…
At this moment, Du Yue suddenly saw from the corner of her eye that Xia Ju, who was originally sitting upright, had taken out a bag of melon seeds from somewhere. She was crossing her legs and kicking them vigorously. Du Yue had just looked over when Xia Ju noticed her gaze. “Why are you staring at me?”
Du Yue looked at the melon seeds in her hand. “I’m looking at the melon seeds.”
Xia Ju’s learning ability was really strong. It had only been a few days, and she had already learned the most comfortable position to eat melon seeds!
Xia Ju hid the melon seeds in her hands behind her back and said warily, “Don’t look at my melon seeds, look at your boyfriend! I haven’t had enough of watching this romantic TV show! You two continue.”
Although Du Yue knew that Xia Ju was watching her and He Xing being intimate, knowing it was one thing and hearing Xia Ju say it with her own ears was another. Du Yue rolled her eyes at her. “Then you can eat your melon seeds slowly! It’s best to savor them carefully! Because I will never give you a bag of melon seeds again!”
Xia Ju’s backpack was half the height of a person. Other than sleeping bags and water, there were also some common daily necessities inside.
Although she had a lot of snacks, she only brought one or two bags of each kind in order to eat a larger variety. The bag of melon seeds in her hand was the only one. Although she knew that Du Yue was simply threatening her, she was still anxious. She waved her hand and grabbed a handful of melon seeds before stuffing them into Du Yue’s hand. Before Du Yue could speak, Xia Ju snatched the melon seeds away again.
Du Yue was confused.
Xia Ju gave her a fawning smile. “Wait for me. 1’11 deshell them for you!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Ju began to deshell the melon seeds quickly. Du Yue was dumbfounded and did not know what to say. She could only silently place a trash can in front of her. It was not to protect the environment. At this time, people could not even eat their fill but they even had melon seeds in their rooms. Was this not clearly telling others that they were different? When Du Yue and Xia Ju were eating melon seeds, they could still hear the aunt cursing outside the door.
However, because the door blocked most of the sound, they could only get a rough idea of what she was saying. Du Yue and the other two could not be bothered to deal with her and treated it as listening to a podcast..
