The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s

Chapter 377 - Her bottom was on fire. (3)

Old Mr. Wen was a little surprised when he saw Wen Rugui. “When did you get back?”

Wen Rugui looked very nonchalant. “This morning.”Old Mr. Wen said nothing. He just waved and have him entered the house.Even Uncle Zong couldn’t tell that Wen Rugui was lying.That night, as soon as it was dark out, Wen Rugui left on his bicycle to pick up Tong Xuelu.Tong Xuelu only washed her face and combed her hair again before she hopped onto Wen Rugui’s bicycle and headed to the banquet with him.As the banquet was outdoor and it was very windy at night, Tong Xuelu did not dress too skimpily for the sake of looking pretty.She had on a thick coat and fabric shoes on her feet. Luckily, she was pretty. Else she would look quite unfashionable.Regardless, she would always look pretty in Wen Rugui’s eyes no matter how she dressed.The event had yet to start when they arrived at the square.Wen Rugui brought Tong Xuelu with him to greet Old Mr. Wen.When Old Mr. Wen saw Tong Xuelu, his smile was so big that his eyes could not be seen.Everybody around asked about who Tong Xuelu was when they saw her. When they learned that she was Wen Rugui’s girlfriend, they all sighed while they congratulated him.How did Wen Rugui get himself a girlfriend quietly?All of them had been wanting to introduce him to their children!Wen Rugui never liked events like this. But he was quite happy with it this time.He lowered his head and looked at Tong Xuelu next to him and there was a smile under his eyes.Tong Xuelu looked around and appreciated all the soldier boys around them.She suddenly recalled that Fang Jingyuan was with the cultural troupe. She wondered if she would be performing tonight.She hadn’t heard from Fang Jingyuan ever since that one time when she came to ask for advice on how to dump the potato boy.Wen Rugui protected Tong Xuelu with his arms, not letting anyone bump into her.Suddenly, a man and a woman walked over to them.“You are back, Rugui!” Sun Wuyang walked over and place one hand on Wen Rugui’s shoulder.Wen Rugui subtly took a step back. “Yes, I am.”Sun Wuyang’s smile froze a little. He pointed at Tong Xuelu and sked, “I’ve heard that you have a girlfriend now. Is this her?”Wen Rugui, “Yes.”Tong Xuelu turned when she heard that and she was a little surprised when she saw Sun Wuyang. Then a hint of sarcasm rose in her eyes.So her hunch wasn’t wrong after all. There was something wrong with this man.A hint of jealousy flashed across Sun Manrou’s face when she saw Tong Xuelu. She put on a friendly front and said, “Hi, Comrade Tong. We met again.”Tong Xuelu said nonchalantly. “Yes.”Sun Manrou’s eyes turned red a little. She looked up at Wen Rugui, “Comrade Wan, I really appreciate someone as competent as Comrade Tong. She can cook and can run a restaurant with a bunch of men. I will never be able to do that.“I have been wanting to be good friends with Comrade Tong since we’ve met but I don’t know why she seems to be cold towards me.”Tong Xuelu turned to look at Wen Rugui, curious how he’d handle that.Wen Rugui frowned a little and a hint of displeasure flashed past his eyes. “And you are?”Sun Manrou, “……”Sun Wuyang, “……”Even Tong Xuelu was speechless.Did he not know Green Tea Sun? That didn’t make sense. The way Green Tea Sun talked, they should be quite familiar with each other.Sun Manrou was so embarrassed that her face turned red. “I’m Sun Manrou. You are too funny, Comrade Wan. We’ve met a few times already. Not to mention that you have saved my life before. How come you do this every time we met?”Having said that, she gave Tong Xuelu a gloating look.Wen Rugui, “I’m sorry. I can’t recognize your face. That’s why I asked you who you are every time.”Sun Manrou.Tong Xuelu almost busted out laughing.She had no idea that prosopagnosia and thought that he was saying that on purpose. She secretly gave him full marks.Sun Manrou’s face turned red and white, and she was close to tears.When Sun Wuyang saw that, he quickly stepped up to smooth things out for his little sister. “Xiao Ruo, its almost time for your performance. You should go get ready.”Sun Manrou took a deep breath and smiled again. “Okay. I’ll head over then.”After Sun Manrou had walked away, Sun Wuyang said to Wen Rugui, “Rugui, some of our buddies are over there. Come with me.”Wen Rugui shook his head, “It’s alright. Why don’t you head over there yourself.”Sun Wuyang wasn’t the one who’d give up easily. “You know the saying, right? Buddies are like your limbs, and women clothes. Don’t tell me you are going to give up buddies.”*Wen Rugui paused for a little and said, “You are most certainly right. Buddies are like limbs, and women clothes.”Sun Wuyang instantly had a complacent look on him when he heard that.Nevertheless, Wen Rugui carried on to say, “But one can still live without limbs. Will you dare step outside your house without clothes?”Sun Wuyang, “……”___Translator’s note:The Chinese version of “bro over ___” 😉
