Yan 'er called out, "Wait, don't … don't go." Li Rui stopped and asked, "Is there anything else?" Yan 'er said faintly, "Thank … thank you. If it wasn't for you, I … I would have …" Li Rui said, "Shi Dayong is too shameless. You have to avoid him in the future." Yan' er nodded and asked, "Who are you? How come I've never seen you before? You're not from the village right? I know everyone in the village. "Li Rui laughed," Okay, I won't say anymore. You should go home quickly. I'm leaving. "He walked away. Yan 'er called out, "Hey, don't go. Who are you?" Li Rui did not say anything else.
Li Rui thought that he had done a good deed. On the way home, he was in high spirits. But when he thought of the landlord who had hit him, he was a little nervous. Would he be recognized?
After being in the village for so many days, he had not seen much of the poverty alleviation effect. But he was familiar with the roads in the village. Therefore, he easily went back the way he came and did not make the mistake of getting lost again. But when he walked into the alley where his house was, he found something lying on the ground. It was black and motionless. It looked like a person but more like a dog. Thinking that it could be a dog, he was shocked and hurriedly took a few steps back. He found that there was no weapon in his hand and was a little scared. But during this process, the "dog" did not bark or make any aggressive moves. It just did not move.
Li Rui calmed down and took out his phone. He turned on the flash and observed carefully. He found that it was not a dog but a living person. This person was probably drunk and was lying on the ground motionless. He went over to take a look. When he saw the person's face, he was shocked. If it was not Shi Dayong who was beaten by him just now, who else could it be? His heart was moved. He … he did not go home but was lying in the alley. What was going on? He then shone the flashlight on his face and carefully looked at him. He was surprised to find that there was blood at the corner of his mouth. His face was ashen, and his eyes were tightly closed. His expression was very painful. His heart moved. Could it be that he was too ruthless and beat him to death?
Thinking about this, Li Ruixin's heart skipped a beat. He quickly crouched down and patted Shi Mu's back, calling out, "Big Brother Shi, Big Brother Shi, what's wrong with you? Are you drunk? " Shi Dayong struggled to open his eyes. When he saw that it was him, he smiled bitterly. He struggled to get up and said, "I'm … I'm fine … cough … cough … yes, I drank too much, drank too much." As he said this, he coughed violently several times. Blood spurted out from the corner of his mouth. Li Rui was shocked. How could he be so ruthless as to cause internal injuries? Only now did he realize that when he beat Shi Mu, he was not only fighting for justice for Yan 'er. In fact, he was also venting his anger from the stolen gift on Shi Mu. That was why he beat him so ruthlessly.
As Shi Dayong walked towards his house, he asked, "Leader, it's so late and you're still awake … cough …" Li Ruixin said that he had injured Shi Dayong's lungs. He said, "Oh, I can't sleep, so I'm still awake." Shi Dayong said, "Oh, hurry up and sleep, cough …"
There was a sound from the door. He pushed open the door of his house and walked in.
Li Rui looked at his hands and secretly sighed. He thought to himself, Shi Dayong, oh Shi Dayong, don't blame me for beating you so ruthlessly. You're just too unlucky to have met me when I'm angry. He smiled bitterly and walked towards the door of his house. When he reached the door, he bent down to pick up the thermos cup and the pair of chopsticks from the ground. He pushed the door open and walked in. He locked the door from the inside before walking into the house.
As soon as he pushed the door open and entered the house, Ling Shuyao asked coldly, "What are you doing here instead of sleeping?" Li Rui looked at her sitting on the single bed with her clothes on. He sneered, "Hehe, this is strange. What does it have to do with you whether I sleep or not? Are you going to wait for me to sleep with you? "Ling Shuyao said angrily," Get lost! Shameless! " Li Rui saw that she had shed all pretense of cordiality. He sneered, "We still don't know who's the shameless one here." Ling Shuyao scolded, "You're shameless! Why aren't you sleeping at night? You're disturbing my rest. " Li Rui thought of his trump card. He smiled and said, "Okay, it's my fault. I'm in the wrong. I'm going to sleep now."
Ling Shuyao was surprised that he took the initiative to admit his mistake so quickly. She looked at him as if she didn't know him.
Li Rui smiled at her and went back to the west room. He took the thermos flask from outside and opened the lid of the thermos flask. He made sure that the scorpion was lying at the bottom of the flask before he poured boiling water into it.
The scorpion didn't even struggle before it died. It floated up and down along with the water in the flask. It didn't know whether its body had become hard or soft.
Li Rui scooped it out of the flask with a pair of chopsticks. He found a nail clipper and carefully cut off its tail. He held it in his hand to make sure that there was no problem. He held it in his hand and casually walked out of the house to the central room.
Ling Shuyao saw that he was still awake and didn't dare to lie down. She didn't want him to see something indecent. She asked coldly, "Why aren't you sleeping?" Li Rui pretended to be serious. "I'm here to help you check if there are any snakes, scorpions, centipedes or the like under the bed." Ling Shuyao believed his words and immediately stood up from the bed. She said, "You have such good intentions?" Li Rui smiled. "Would I tell you that I didn't sleep just now because I went out to buy a mosquito net for you?" Ling Shuyao frowned and stared at him. After a while, she asked, "Really?" Li Rui said, "If you believe it, it's true. If you don't, it's false." Ling Shuyao was stunned and scoffed, "It's definitely false. You're not that kind."
Li Rui ignored her and looked up at the beam on the roof, pretending to observe. Ling Shuyao followed his gaze and looked left and right. She didn't see anything wrong.
Li Rui raised his empty right hand and pointed at the corner of the beam. "Look, isn't that a scorpion?" Ling Shuyao looked in the direction of his finger and saw a black object. She couldn't see it clearly and said hesitantly, "It can't be." Li Rui walked two steps towards her and said, "Look carefully. If you can't see it clearly, go over there." Ling Shuyao foolishly walked two more steps and looked up. Li Rui took the opportunity to stuff the dead scorpion in his left hand under her blanket. Ling Shuyao shook her head and said, "It's not a scorpion, it's a wooden scar." Li Rui yawned and said, "Alright, since it's not a scorpion, let's go to sleep." He then returned to the west room.
Ling Shuyao stared at the door of the west room in a daze. She didn't believe that he went out to buy a mosquito net for her, but she also didn't want to believe that it was fake. While she was thinking, she suddenly heard the sound of the lights being turned off. Knowing that he was lying down, she took off her outerwear. After thinking for a while, she quietly took off her brother's jacket and removed it from her thermal underwear. She lifted the blanket and prepared to go to sleep.
As soon as she lifted the quilt, a black thing caught her attention. She took a closer look and screamed in fright. Subconsciously, she ran into the west room. Li Rui was waiting at the door to the west room to laugh at her. As soon as she rushed in, she immediately threw herself into his arms and screamed, "Ah, there's a scorpion, there really is a scorpion, help …"
Li Rui looked at her disdainfully under the light from the central room. His heart was already blooming with joy. He deliberately pretended to be confused and said, "I told you that it was a scorpion, but you didn't believe me." Ling Shuyao cried, "It's not that one, it's another one, another one, it went under my blanket. It's true, go and take a look. Oh my god, it almost stung me. I was scared to death." Li Rui couldn't help laughing and said, "Why are you screaming if it didn't sting you? Calm down, will you? You're a divisional leader. " Ling Shuyao turned around and pushed him outside, saying, "Hurry up and kill that scorpion for me. Hurry up." Li Rui taunted her, "Now you're not calling me shameless?" Ling Shuyao said angrily, "Oh my, why are you so petty? You're even more petty than us women. I didn't even take what happened just now to heart, but you're holding a grudge. You're really something. Hurry up and help me."
Li Rui was waiting for these words. Seeing her admit defeat, he was satisfied. He nodded and patted her back, saying, "Okay, let me go. I'll kill it for you." Ling Shuyao finally came to her senses. She had been in his arms all this time. Although she didn't feel embarrassed, she still felt a little awkward and hurriedly left his embrace.
She pounced and retreated in Li Rui's embrace. Suddenly, Li Rui felt something hard brushing past his heart. He focused his gaze and chased after it, only to see two delicate little dots on her chest. His heart skipped a beat, and he thought, 'What a good Ling Shuyao, Brother Buwen pounced into my embrace. Are you deliberately seducing me?'
Ling Shuyao took two steps back. She saw his gaze sweep past her chest and couldn't help but look down. With one glance, she understood what was going on. She was so embarrassed that her face turned red. Her heart was boiling with anger. She wanted to explode, but she was afraid that she would be even more embarrassed. She could only swallow her anger and pretend that nothing had happened. Her two arms intentionally or unintentionally crossed in front of her chest to hide the two protruding dots.
Li Rui walked out of the room and went to her bed. He stretched out his hand and easily "killed" the scorpion. He then took it out of the bed and showed it to her, saying, "Okay, it's fine now. You can sleep now." Ling Shuyao lifted the curtain and stood at the door looking at him. She sighed in admiration and said, "You're still the best. You actually dared to hold it." Li Rui said, "I even dared to bite it." He put the scorpion into his mouth. Ling Shuyao looked at him with her beautiful eyes wide open. She said in admiration, "I'm completely convinced." Li Rui smiled and said, "So what if you're convinced?" Ling Shuyao said, "Let's switch back to the room. I found that the central room is more dangerous than the west room." Li Rui was speechless.
Li Ruixin's original intention was to tease her. He didn't expect that in the end they would have to switch beds. He was very depressed.
