Rebirth Era: My Sweet Wife Has a System

Chapter 41 Fortune Turns

Lin Nan felt that her fortune had turned recently.

She accepted an emergency mission, and just as she was thinking hard about how to get Cheng Li out of the way and go to the black market alone, Cheng Li suddenly met his classmate.

Cheng Li's comrade-in-arms was Liu Zheng, who became a policeman after returning home from the army. After struggling for these years, and with connections in his family, he is now the director.

Cheng Li was also a soldier before, and saved Liu Zheng's life during a mission. Liu Zheng had long wanted to repay him, but Cheng Li was not often at home, and Liu Zheng could not find him.

Now that they finally met, there was no reason to let him go. Liu Zheng insisted on dragging Cheng Li to his house for a meal.

If it were normal times, Cheng Li might have agreed.

But Lin Nan was there today, and he was worried about leaving Lin Nan alone. He was afraid that Lin Nan would feel uncomfortable if he took Lin Nan to Liu Zheng's house, as they were not in a proper relationship.

Cheng Li wanted to decline, but Lin Nan persuaded him, "Brother Cheng, your classmate's kindness is hard to refuse, so you should go!"

Cheng Li, "Then you should come with me. I'm worried about you being alone."

Lin Nan, "What's there to worry about? I'm not a child. Besides, there are no beggars in this world. Are you afraid that I'll be kidnapped?"

"It just so happens that I have some private matters to attend to, and it will be difficult for you to follow me, Brother Cheng."

Now that it's come to this, what else can Cheng Li do?

He could only give her a few words of advice: "Be sure to pay attention to safety. If there is anything you can't solve, don't be stubborn. Wait for me to help you."

Lin Nan, "Okay, I'm leaving."

Turning around, Lin Nan left.

Cheng Li kept staring at her back until he could no longer see her. Liu Zheng teased him, "Old Cheng, come on, you're still staring even when you can't see her anymore. Aren't you afraid of becoming a husband-waiting rock?"

Cheng Li turned around and looked at Liu Zheng with resentment in his eyes, "You said you didn't meet me earlier or later, but you met me at this time."

It was not easy for him to have some time alone with Lin Nan.

Liu Zheng touched his nose, "How do I know you're dating someone!"

"But this girl looks so young. Is she over 18?" Liu Zheng asked.

Cheng Li shook his head, "No, I'm only seventeen, and I won't be eighteen until the new year."

Liu Zheng, "Old Cheng, you're not real! You're an old cow eating young grass, hahaha..."

Cheng Li, "It's still unclear whether I can eat it or not!"

Liu Zheng, "What do you mean?"

Cheng Li told Liu Zheng how he and Lin Nan met.

After hearing this, Liu Zheng said to him: "Old Cheng, don't worry. I think the girl is interested in you."

Cheng Li, "How do you know?"

Liu Zheng, "If the girl doesn't like you, she can go out with you alone. Although the world has changed, a woman's reputation is still very important. Lin Nan looks sensible. I don't believe she doesn't understand these things."
