Chapter 132 A Piece of Pure White
Lu Xingguang was naturally a hundred times unwilling.
Zhao Sulan, who was standing to the side, had no recollection of the house that Jiang Aiguo mentioned.
Because she was taken in unconscious, and when she came out, she was still not fully conscious, so she probably didn't know where she was.
However, when Zhao Sulan saw the change in Lu Xingguang's expression, she knew that this was definitely not a good house.
Zhao Sulan didn't understand this kind of thing, so she could only stand next to Lu Xingguang and wait for him to make a decision.
Lu Xingguang's brows were furrowed so deeply they looked like balls.
He looked at Jiang Aiguo with displeasure.
"Secretary Jiang, I don't think I've offended you, have I? Are you trying to make things difficult for me?" Lu Xingguang felt comfortable with the support of a powerful figure behind him and had already suppressed a lot of his emotions.
Now that Lu Xingguang heard that Jiang Aiguo was going to lend him that dilapidated house, his last taut nerve snapped.
Without caring about anything else, he spoke directly, his emotions running high.
"Lu Zhiqing, what are you saying? Don't you know better than I do what happened that day?"
"Besides, it's a house in the village. You can tidy it up and move in, wouldn't that be fine?"
Jiang Aiguo adopted a strictly businesslike attitude, leaving Lu Xingguang no room for maneuver whatsoever.
"..." Lu Xingguang was speechless.
To be fair, if both of them were sent-down youth, there are documents that prove the village didn't allocate them housing.
That's right, the memory of that house isn't good, and Lu Xingguang doesn't want that house.
"Let's get a different one, an older one is fine, I'll fix it myself." Lu Xingguang was taking a step back.
“But that’s the only vacant house in the village right now, you should know that, right?” Jiang Aiguo said meaningfully.
Yes, there aren't any other vacant houses in the village, otherwise Lu Xingguang and his group wouldn't have chosen that place as their office.
Lu Xingguang felt a lump in his throat.
He clenched his fist to the side.
Lu Xingguang could feel his fingernails digging slightly into his flesh, and a sharp pain shot through his palm.
Then Lu Xingguang let go of her again.
"Okay." The word was practically squeezed out from between Lu Xingguang's teeth.
The educated youth settlement was for single male and female educated youth to live in. After I got married to Zhao Sulan, I really couldn't continue living in the educated youth settlement.
If the village doesn't allocate homestead land, then the only place left is the one Jiang Aiguo mentioned.
There was nothing Lu Xingguang could do but accept it.
That's right, Jiang Aiguo was also hated by Lu Xingguang.
Why make things difficult for yourself for no reason?
We'll have to settle this score with Jiang Aiguo sometime later.
There's still plenty of time; Lu Xingguang has the patience to find an opportunity to take revenge on Jiang Aiguo.
Lu Xingguang, along with Zhao Sulan, left Jiang Aiguo's office in a huff.
"Xingguang? What's wrong? Is the house you were assigned not good enough?" Zhao Sulan saw that Lu Xingguang's face was ashen, as if she was very angry.
She carefully tugged at Lu Xingguang's sleeve and asked him.
Lu Xingguang was still angry and gave Zhao Sulan a cold glance.
"Heh, whether it's good or not, I'll take you to see it." Lu Xingguang shook off Zhao Sulan's hand that was pulling on his sleeve.
"..." Zhao Sulan didn't even have time to react before Lu Xingguang pulled her away.
The house wasn't far from Gu Nan's home, and Gu Nan had to pass by the dilapidated house that Lu Xingguang had been given to every time he went home.
"Is this it?" Zhao Sulan looked at the dilapidated house in front of her and felt terrible.
The house was a small mud-brick house with a small yard. The house was dilapidated, and even the kitchen and toilet were open-air...
It means there is no roof.
This sight made Zhao Sulan's teeth ache.
"This house is so dilapidated. Repairing it is no better than building a new one," Zhao Sulan said, also dissatisfied with her new home.
It's not even as good as the educated youth settlement.
Zhao Sulan planned to live a good life with Lu Xingguang, so how could she live in a house like this?
"There's no other way, this is all we can do." Lu Xingguang's words were almost squeezed out through clenched teeth.
He was a young master who always had the best of everything, and he was already somewhat dissatisfied with his accommodations at the educated youth settlement.
Not to mention the small mud house in front of us now?
Moreover, Lu Xingguang simply couldn't accept having to pay for the repairs herself.
"I can't live here, it's all dusty." Zhao Sulan fanned the air in front of her nose with her hand, and felt that there was a strange smell in the room.
The noise attracted the attention of the people in the neighborhood.
An elderly man in his sixties came out from the neighbor's house and looked at Lu Xingguang and Zhao Sulan.
After recognizing the two people, the old man wore a strange smile.
"You two, are you planning to do something... before it gets dark?" The old man had lost a front tooth, so his speech was a little slurred.
Zhao Sulan looked at the old man, who was wearing shorts and a tank top, and whose skin was very dark from the sun.
There is almost no hair left on his head.
The smile that appeared when he spoke seemed a bit lewd to Zhao Sulan, so she hid behind Lu Xingguang.
"None of your business!" Lu Xingguang was already annoyed, and now he was even less inclined to pretend to be humble and polite.
"Hehehe, I saw it all clearly that night, you two... her, all white."
As the old man spoke, he pointed at Zhao Sulan behind Lu Xingguang.
He had a lewd look on his face, yet he seemed to be thinking about something interesting.
The smile on his face grew even more unrestrained.
Lu Xingguang suddenly remembered that something terrible might have happened after he was knocked unconscious that night.
Otherwise, why would this old man look at me like that?
All white?
What is meant?
Could it be Zhao Sulan?
Lu Xingguang recalled that she really was quite fair-skinned...
Could that old man have seen Zhao Sulan's body?
Although Zhao Sulan was hiding behind Lu Xingguang, she still peeked out to look at the old man.
Zhao Sulan always felt that there was something strange about his tone of voice and expression.
"Why don't we go back to the educated youth settlement first? Even if we're going to stay here, we should at least get it repaired." Zhao Sulan tugged at Lu Xingguang's sleeve from behind.
Lu Xingguang still had doubts, but the old man seemed to have no integrity, and even if he got something out of him, he didn't know whether to believe it or not.
So, let's go back and ask Qian Jun.
Or perhaps other educated youth.
For some reason, Lu Xingguang had a feeling that he had been tricked at this moment.
It's just a feeling.
Lu Xingguang nodded after hearing Zhao Sulan's words.
We definitely can't stay here for the next few days, so we can only go back to the educated youth settlement first.
As the two emerged from the dilapidated mud house, they saw neighbors discussing something about a hundred meters away.
The hand gestures were still pointing and gesturing.
This made Lu Xingguang even more uneasy.
After being knocked unconscious and returning from the county hospital, Lu Xingguang rarely left the educated youth settlement.
The only time I went out was to get a certificate from Jiang Aiguo.
