168 There's Something Wrong With My Throat

“How’re Cousin’s studies? Are you stressed?” Gu Man asked about Huang Jue’s studies.

“It’s alright. It’s the last stage of the sprint now. I’m just short of checking and filling in the gaps. I heard from my dad that he’s going to Han City. I’ll go to Han City to take a look too. I’ll just treat it as a break.” Huang Jue immediately became familiar with her and spoke smoothly.

Huang Jue was a precocious child. He only had an honest father and grandmother at home. He had to make decisions for many things himself. He even went to an unfamiliar county for junior high school, so he had his own opinions on things and thoughts.

“Yes, the more it is at an important time like this, the more we can’t be too anxious. Just maintain a normal mentality and relax when you need to.” Xiang Yin nodded in agreement.

“Let’s eat before we go. Let Little Xiang try the farm food,” Huang Jun suggested.

Xiang Yin smiled and said, “Sure, I’ll try something new.”

“Dad, let me help you,” Huang Jue said as he stood up.

“No need. Just bring your cousin and the others out for a walk. We’ll eat in an hour.” Huang Jun waved his hand and walked into the house.

“Shall we go for a walk?” Huang Jue suggested.

“Alright, let’s take a walk by the field.”

After Gu Man came to this world, she took a walk in the city of Han City. She also wanted to go to more different places.

After leaving the courtyard, they walked for a while before they arrived at a paddy field that was almost endless. The morning sun shone on the paddy field that had yet to have crops. When the wind blew, the surface of the water rippled. When there was no wind, it reflected the blue sky and white clouds.

Gu Man couldn’t help but sigh. “So beautiful.”

“Mm.” Xiang Yin agreed. He usually did not have the time and opportunity to look at such scenery quietly.

Gu Man looked at Xiang Yin in surprise. “I was worried that you would despise the countryside!”

“Why would you think that?” Xiang Yin looked at Gu Man in confusion.

“Don’t the rich in the city look down on the countryside? They think that the countryside is rustic.”

Gu Man thought of those students from Han City First High School, they gave her ugly nicknames because she came from the countryside.

“Don’t label everyone else,” Xiang Yin teased.

Gu Man raised her eyebrows and smiled without saying anything.

“Cousin, come here quickly.” Huang Jue shouted from the front, “Do you still remember this place? You used to swim here often.”

Gu Man looked at the small river. In the past, she used to bring Huang Jue over to swim, and her grandmother guarded on the shore.

“I didn’t expect you to be so active when you were young.” It was Xiang Yin’s turn to raise his eyebrows.

Gu Man recalled that she had just said that she did not like to go out. Now, she seemed to have slapped her in the face.

Gu Man coughed lightly. “That was when I was very young.”

“My cousin still liked to play when she was in primary school. Later on, she stopped playing after she entered junior high and high school. Every time I asked my cousin to come out and play with me, she rejected me. I was so sad.” Huang Jue’s voice was filled with regret and complaint.

When he was young, he wanted to play with Gu Man, but Gu Man became obsessed with computers and basically ignored him. Later on, she wanted to go to Han City and didn’t want to play with him anymore. He even complained in his heart that she despised the countryside.

Gu Man looked at Huang Jue’s accusatory gaze and couldn’t help but laugh. “You’re the only one who thinks about playing all day. I have to learn.”

“Learn what?” Xiang Yin asked.

“Learn to play with computers.”

To be precise, she had accidentally become a hacker, but Gu Man did not want to say it out loud.

Seeing that Huang Jue was still walking forward, Gu Man and Xiang Yin also walked on the ridge. Fortunately, the ridge was flat and not muddy.

“Wow, so many egrets.” Huang Jue suddenly pointed behind Gu Man and shouted.

Gu Man turned around quickly and lost her balance. Just as she was about to step into the field, a hand held her waist and pulled her gently before she stood still.

Xiang Yin’s hand had yet to leave. “Be careful.”

Gu Man felt that Xiang Yin’s hand on her waist was like a piece of hot iron. She could feel the heat through her clothes. She looked up and saw Xiang Yin’s deep eyes looking at her.

After Gu Man stood still, she coughed lightly. “Thank you.”

With that, she quickly walked forward, her face hot.

“Cousin, is your throat uncomfortable? I saw that you’ve coughed twice. I’ll go back and ask Grandma to boil a set of herbs for you to drink.” Huang Jue did not see Xiang Yin and Gu Man’s actions just now. When he heard Gu Man cough, he suggested.

Gu Man pretended to look up at Bai Lu and ignored Huang Jue.

Xiang Yin also looked up and saw the egrets flying over his head. His slightly raised lips revealed his good mood.
