Lin Ruoxi watched the battered old van drive away and asked, "Why were the village chief's cigarettes different from theirs?"
Xue Rui hadn't told her before, but she noticed when she was paying the bill. Those two red cartons of cigarettes cost more than all the others combined.
Xue Rui was speechless. 'Did she really have to ask about something like that? Of course the leader and the workers don't get the same treatment.'
But he didn't want to explain it to Lin Ruoxi. 'It's useless for a girl like her to learn about these things.'
"I asked Yu Minlan to come pick you up. I won't be going over today," Xue Rui said.
"Okay. I'll bring you food at school," Lin Ruoxi replied obediently.
She knew Xue Rui had been working hard lately, busy with his grandmother's affairs and also preparing for the college entrance exams.
Soon, Yu Minlan's car pulled up in front of the restaurant.
After nodding to Yu Minlan, Xue Rui headed upstairs.
