Chapter 8: Who Are You?

Lu Jueyu chuckled lightly and said, "You are my fiancé. If I don't marry you, who else should I marry?"

"Jueyu, even if I recover, I can't be like before. If you want to cancel our engagement, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, she interrupted him.

"What do you mean by that? Am I such a person in your eyes?" Lu Jueyu asked with a frown.

Li Chenmo was taken aback by her stern tone. Looking into her cold eyes, he suddenly became a little anxious.

"No, that's not what I meant."

"Li Chenmo, I know what I'm doing and I don't care what others say about you. If I don't want to, no one can force me. I choose to marry you not because you saved my life. But because you are a person worthy of my trust and respect," She said seriously.

While Li Chenmo was moved, he was also disappointed. He's happy that she's willing to be with him, even though he might be limping in the future. However, he is also disappointed because she only has trust and respect for him, while he longs for her love.

'Li Chenmo, you can't be too greedy. As long as you can be with her, even if she doesn't love you, you should be content.'

He repeated this sentence over and over in his mind before he felt better. When he looked at her again, he had already calmed down and said with a smile, "Jueyu, thank you."

Lu Jueyu didn't know why he was thanking her and felt a little shy under his burning gaze. She can only change the topic to reduce her embarrassment.

"The soup is getting cold." She reminded him.

He smiled and drank the fish soup. The fish soup is delicious and refreshing. He is very curious about the ingredients of this soup as he feels warm and comfortable after drinking it. When Lu Jueyu poured the last drop of fish soup into the bowl, he only saw fish meat and two slices of ginger.

Seeing him looking at the ginger, she asked, "You don't like ginger?"

"This ginger is good. I feel warm after drinking the soup."

Hearing what he said, she just hummed. When he was done, she cleared the bowl and took it out with the jar. When she came back, she saw him yawning and said, "It's time for me to go back. Rest well, and get better soon. Don't think too much about random things."

She helped him to lie down and covered him with a quilt. When she straightened her back, he held her fingers and asked, "Are you coming tomorrow?"

"I'll come and bring you dinner later. You can't skip meals."

"Okay, be careful on the way home." He said softly.

"I know. I'm leaving." She nodded and left without looking back.

Li Chenmo looked at her back and fell into deep thought. He wondered what had happened to her to make such a drastic change in her attitude towards him.

She was upset the last time they met before he returned to the army. Although she didn't say a word about their marriage, he knew clearly that she didn't want to marry him. He would never have proposed to her if the villagers hadn't seen them embracing each other and spreading those ugly rumors.

But just now, he couldn't describe the look in her eyes when she saw him. It was as if she was looking at another person through him. Does she already have someone in her heart? Is he just a substitute?

The more he thought about it, the more anxious, jealous, and insecure he became. There are still two months until the wedding, and anything can happen during that period. He must recover quickly to prevent her from changing her mind. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.

'That's right! Why didn't I think of it just now? I should give it to her when she comes later.'

His mood improved as he found a way to 'tie' her to his side. Not long after, he fell asleep while smiling.

At the same time, Lu Jueyu was walking home when a young man blocked her way. She stopped and looked at the young man. She stood there with a distance of five meters between them. The young man looked at her with sadness and anger in his eyes. He clenched his fist and took a step forward. When he walked towards her, Lu Jueyu took a step back. Seeing her action, he froze for a moment.

He lowered his head for a while before he looked at her and asked, "Jueyu, do you have to do this?"

Lu Jueyu didn't see this man in her dream, and she had no memory of the original host. So, when she heard his words, she just showed confusion in her face. Seeing her indifference, the young man was very hurt.

He took a deep breath and asked, "Does the time we spent together mean nothing to you?"

This time, she couldn't help asking, "I'm sorry, but who are you?"

Hearing her words, the young man's eyes widened with disbelief. He clutched his chest, his eyes were red. If she didn't know, she would think he was the male lead in a dog-blood drama.

"Jueyu, I know you are angry with me because of Huang Yuanwen's words. But, there is nothing between me and her. We indeed grew up together and have an engagement, but I only regard her as my sister. You are the only one I love. I will ask my parents to call off the engagement and marry you. Jueyu, you must believe me!" He spoke so heartbreakingly that at the end of his words, tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes.

Lu Jueyue would almost have applauded his performance if she hadn't been disgusted by watching his one-man show. She hated this kind of man the most, and said coldly, "Sorry, I don't know you, and I don't understand what you're talking about."

Chapter 9: Shameless Su Anna

Seeing that the young man wanted to say something, Lu Jueyu raised her hand to stop him, and added, "I don't care what you think or what you feel. I have a fiance and I don't want him to misunderstand me. So, stay away from me. If you disturb me like this again, don't blame me for being impolite, and report you to the authorities."

After Lu Jueyu finished talking, she bypassed the young man and left without hesitation. She didn't know that the young man she met at Li Chenmo's house was hiding behind a tree and watching them. He followed her until she was inside the house, before turning to report the incident to his captain.

Sitting on the Kang bed, Li Chenmo frowned as he listened to Xiao Zhang's words.

"Did he do something to her?" he asked.

"No, captain. Sister-in-law is so powerful. Her tone was so cold that even I felt scared. The man could only stand there blankly, watching sister-in-law walk away." Xiao Zhang said with a grin.

"I've already asked around and found out about that person. His name is Du Jiawen, and he's from the county town. His family works in a factory, so his family has money. But he's been engaged to his childhood friend, Huang Yuanfeng, since he was a child." Xiao Zhang said while he observed Li Chenmo's expression.

Seeing his calm expression, he continued cautiously, "Some villagers said that he likes sister-in-law for a long time and wants to propose to her. But before he can capture sister-in-law's heart, she is already engaged to you."

Li Chenmo was silent, trying to recall who Du Jiawen is. After a while, he finally remembered that person who was always stalking Lu Jueyu. He licked his molars and let out a chuckle.

Hearing his laugh, Xiao Zhang felt a chill go down his spine, and hurriedly said, "Captain, calm down. I've already taught him a lesson."

Li Chenmo raised his eyebrows and waited for his explanation. Xiao Zhang said, "When I returned after making sure that my sister-in-law had safely returned home, I saw this Du guy loitering around Lu's house. So I covered his head with a sack and beat him. He wouldn't be able to leave the bed for at least a week."

After he finished talking, he looked at his captain with bright eyes asking for praise. Li Chenmo chuckled and said, "Well done. I will buy some meat for you to bring back."

After hearing his words, Xiao Zhang was overjoyed, thanked him quickly, and then went to help Father Li repair the chicken coop.

After he was left alone in the room, Li Chenmo looked out the window and saw a young woman peeking from behind the fence. He narrowed his eyes when he recognized her. He just watched coldly as she talked to Father Li.

"Uncle Li, how is Brother Chenmo's injury?" She asked worriedly.

"Miss Su, please don't call my son so intimately. He has a fiancée and will be married in two months. You don't have to worry about his injuries, Jueyu will take care of him." Father Li said with a frown, obviously very unhappy.

Su Anna bit her lip, her eyes reddened, and said softly, "I'm just worried about Brother Chenmo. I have no other intentions."

Father Li hates this kind of woman who likes to pretend to be pitiful as if everyone bullies her. He blocked the gate with his body, and said, "Miss Su, please go back. My son has a fiancée, so you should stop bothering him."

He has told her twice about Lu Jueyu. A well-bred woman would understand his words and keep her distance from his third son. But he still underestimated Su Anna's shamelessness. Not only did she not leave, she even started crying.

"Uncle Li, I... I just like him. Do you need to keep reminding me about that woman? I have no intention of destroying their relationship, I just want to take care of him until he recovers. Is that too much to ask?" She sobbed as she asked.

When Li's father was stunned by her shameless words and sudden tears, Li Chenmo had already stood at the door with Xiao Zhang's support.

"Yes, it's too much. Miss Su, we are not familiar and never talk with each other. Please stop saying things that may mislead others. My heart is very small, so it can only accommodate one person, and that person is my fiancée, Lu Jueyu. There will never be a place for another person in it. So, stop your wishful thinking and don't bother me and my family anymore. If you are still not stopping, I will report you to the officers." Li Chenmo said coldly, and then returned to his room.

Su Anna was stunned by his words. He was so cruel that he didn't save any face for her and even threatened her openly. She looked around and saw the villagers pointing at her in whispers. Feeling ashamed and humiliated, she ran back to her house.

Lu Jueyu didn't know that there was a Mary Sue drama at her fiancé's house, and was rummaging through things in her room. Since she has no memory of the original host, she doesn't know if she has money. She searched her small room from the beams to hidden corners, and finally found a small jar hidden in the corner of the Kang bed. She opened the jar and saw some money and coins inside.

After she poured out the money, she counted it. Although it was only fifty-eight yuan in total, it was already a huge sum of money in this day and age, as two yuan could buy a kilogram of fine grains. Of course, if she has food coupons, she can buy them at this price. If she went to the black market, the price would probably be nearly double the market price.

Lu Jueyu is not used to the value of money in this era. In her previous world, a kilogram of rice cost twelve yuan.
