    Chapter 4 Looking for a Husband Do you think you are pretending to be the same?

    This simple sentence made Ruan Yan freeze on the spot. He widened his eyes and looked at Jiang Tingnan in disbelief.

    Ruan Yan’s eyes are very round, and when he stares at people with wide eyes, it is easy to make people feel soft, but Jiang Tingnan always looks very cold. He is much taller than Ruan Yan, and when he looks at people, he lowers his eyes, which is a bit condescending.

    “How could…” Ruan Yan murmured, “Didn’t you…”

    It shouldn’t be, they were obviously in a car accident together.

    Ruan Yan bit his lip. The worries, tensions, and anxieties he had felt after returning from rebirth all surged up. The worst outcome became a reality. He even felt it was difficult to breathe, his heartbeat was empty, and his voice was trembling unconsciously. “Jiang Tingnan, please don’t joke with me, okay?”

    Jiang Tingnan was silent for a few seconds, his eyes lingered on Ruan Yan’s red eyes for a moment, and he said softly, “You really recognized the wrong person.”

    He stopped stopping and turned around to start stacking bricks again.

    Ruan Yan seemed to have been abandoned and stood alone. He looked at Jiang Tingnan’s bent back and sniffed. His tears could no longer be held back and rolled down his face.

    Jiang Tingnan turned his back to him, and the brick rubbed his fingers roughly, but he seemed not to feel it.The surroundings were very noisy, with human voices and machines. In comparison, Ruan Yan’s cries were almost inaudible, but Jiang Tingnan could hear them. Every tiny sob hit his heart like a whip, and every tear weighed heavily on his heart.

    Jiang Tingnan had almost nothing to be afraid of, except for Ruan Yan’s tears. He worked hard in the business world with his bare hands, and no matter how much hardship he faced, he could only frown and show a little irritation.

    But he couldn’t bear to see Ruan Yan’s tears.

    Except in bed.

    Make Ruan Yan cry.

    It’s just that he, Jiang Tingnan, is incapable.

    He repeatedly bent down, moved bricks, stacked bricks, such mechanical movements. After an unknown period of time, Jiang Tingnan turned around, and there was nothing behind him. Ruan Yan was gone.

    He lowered his head and looked at the place where Ruan Yan had just stood, trying to find Ruan Yan’s tears on the sand.

    .

    Ruan Yan sat on the suitcase, peeled the egg left for Jiang Tingnan, and called Lin Dong while eating.

    “Work?! Okay, I happen to be working as an accountant here. I’ll ask my uncle to find a job for you in the office. We can work together.”

    Lin Dong responded immediately. When he heard that Ruan Yan was at the construction site now, he asked the manager to help him find a room to live in first, and he would go there tomorrow.

    Ruan Yan whispered, “Thank you, Dongzi.”

    “Why are you being polite to me? Hang up.”

    Lin Dong worked quickly, and soon the manager came to him, gave him a small key, and showed him a tin room.

    Ruan Yan jumped off the suitcase.

    The sun came out today, and there was no shade on the construction site. Ruan Yan’s face was burning due to the sun. It had only been a morning, and he felt exhausted physically and mentally, and his head was in a mess.

    After going around and around, Ruan Yan almost felt like he was going to faint. He finally found the room based on the number on the key. When he opened the door, the door next to him also rang.

    Jiang Tingnan walked out as if he had taken a shower, with a towel around his neck. When he saw Ruan Yan, he was stunned and paused slightly.

    But Ruan Yan acted as if he hadn’t seen him. He opened the door with the key, entered, and closed the door in one go.

    He was panting, his back pressed against the door panel, his chest heaving violently, and at the same time he clenched his fists slightly, cursing secretly in his heart.

    Jiang Tingnan.

    Do you think you are pretending to be similar?

    .

    Until night, Ruan Yan didn’t go out again.

    The room was small, and there was no room to pack most of the luggage, but he was too tired, so he simply made the bed and fell asleep.

    I haven’t had a good night’s sleep these days because I was thinking about Jiang Tingnan. But now that I finally found him, Jiang Tingnan still doesn’t recognize him.

    Ruan Yan just scolded Jiang Tingnan in his heart, and fell asleep in a daze. He slept for a long time, as if he was trying to make up for the sleep he had missed in the previous few days.

    It was dark when I woke up.

    Ruan Yan sat up from the bed and took a moment to react before remembering where he was now. He rubbed his eyes and started a new round of scolding Jiang Tingnan in his heart.

    This time Jiang Tingnan was finished.

    He was really angry.

    There’s no such thing as two sports cars that can’t be coaxed back.

    He planned to go out to find something to eat, but when he opened the door, he saw a box of lunch on the window sill outside. When he reached out and touched it, it was still warm.

    Ruan Yan snorted, pretended not to notice, and strode out.

    If there is dinner at the construction site in the evening, you need to prepare it yourself. However, the food is monotonous, with potatoes and cabbage everywhere you look.

    When Ruan Yan was waiting in line for lunch, Jiang Tingnan walked up to him with a sullen face, paused, and said casually, “I seem to have seen a box of lunch at the door of your room.”

    Ruan Yan said “Oh” and turned to look at him, “I didn’t see it.”

    Jiang Tingnan frowned.

    I immediately reflected on whether I had placed the rice too far away. It should have been placed at the door.

    Seeing that Ruan Yan was about to be queued up, he whispered, “I really saw it. Let’s go back and I’ll find it for you.”

    “Us?”

    Ruan Yan blinked, “Do we know each other?”

    Jiang Tingnan fell silent.

    Ruan Yan patted his head and looked apologetic, “I recognized the wrong person this morning. I came here to see my husband. You look a bit like him.”

    Jiang Tingnan’s Adam’s apple rolled up and down, the hands hanging by his sides clenched slightly, and his breathing became heavy.

    Ruan Yan said casually, “But forget it, if you can’t find it, stop looking. People have to look forward and start a new life.”

    new life.

    These words stung Jiang Tingnan. He lowered his eyes slightly, and his originally tight brows became a little tighter.

    Ruan Yan ignored him and followed the team forward. When he was about to queue up, his wrist was suddenly grasped tightly and then he was pulled out.

    Jiang Tingnan’s face darkened, his jawline tightened into a line, and he strode out, dragging Ruan Yan away.

    Ruan Yan frowned and struggled to shake him off, “Who are you? Why are you dragging me!”

    Jiang Tingnan said in a deep tone, “Don’t eat that. It’s not clean and doesn’t taste good. There is a lunch box at your door. I’ll take you back to get it.”

    Ruan Yan looked at him strangely, “What does what I eat have to do with you?”

    Jiang Tingnan remained silent, but did not let go either.

    When he returned to the door of the room, Jiang Tingnan took the rice off the window sill and handed it to Ruan Yan, “You eat this.”

    Ruan Yan didn’t answer and asked him, “Did you buy it for me?”

    Jiang Tingnan immediately denied, “No.”

    “Then I don’t even know who bought it. Why should I eat it? What if it’s poisonous?”

    Ruan Yan raised his chin. He was afraid that he would not have enough momentum, so he stood up two steps, folding his arms, looking arrogant.

    “You don’t know me, so why do you care about me? Does what I eat have anything to do with you?”

    Jiang Tingnan was silent.

    Ruan Yan was almost furious.

    The mouth is so hard, isn’t it?

    Now the hardest part of your body is your mouth, right?

    He deliberately kept a cold face and looked impatient, “Forget it, I have lost my appetite now that you have fucked me up, so I won’t eat anymore!”

    Ruan Yan took out the key and opened the door, deliberately pausing for a few seconds, but Jiang Tingnan stood behind him, as silent as a stone.

    Angrily, Ruan Yan stomped into the house and closed the door heavily.

    After closing the door, Ruan Yan was still lying on the edge of the door, wanting to hear if there was any sound outside. Unfortunately, the room here was too simple and there was no peephole, so Ruan Yan could not see or hear.

    Ruan Yan angrily punched a set of martial arts fists in his mind.

    But within ten minutes, there was a knock on the door.

    Ruan Yan ran to the door in a few steps, adjusted his expression, and opened the door with a slightly cold expression. As expected, Jiang Tingnan was at the door again.

    He frowned, “What are you doing again?”

    Jiang Tingnan handed over a bag, “We can’t skip dinner to cushion our stomach.”

    He was afraid that Ruan Yan would not answer, so he added in a deep voice, “Because I just delayed your meal, I will compensate you.”

    Ruan Yan glanced at him, said nothing this time, and reached out to take it.

    Jiang Tingnan frowned slightly when he saw the plastic basin and towel held by Ruan Yan in one hand, “You want to take a bath? This is a public bathhouse.”

    Ruan Yan tilted his head and said, “What’s the matter?”

    What’s wrong?

    If you go there to take a bath, everyone can see Ruan Yan.

    Jiang Tingnan felt like he was going crazy just thinking about it.

    His eyes were heavy, “Don’t go there, wash in the room, I’ll get you hot water.”

    Ruan Yan blinked, “How embarrassing.”

    Jiang Tingnan said no more, turned around and left.

    The room in the tin house was very small, and the door was open. Jiang Tingnan was carrying buckets of water inside. His arms were bare, and the muscles in his forearms were bulging.

    Ruan Yan couldn’t help but remember that Jiang Tingnan liked to hug him. In front of the mirror, Ruan Yan was shaking. When he was unconscious, he could see the bulging muscles and veins on Jiang Tingnan’s arms, not to mention how sexy they were.

    He held his chin and slowly watched Jiang Tingnan pour him water.

    After putting water in the basin, Jiang Tingnan was about to turn around when Ruan Yan called out to him again, “Please wipe my back.”

    Jiang Tingnan froze.

    Ruan Yan spoke in a natural tone, and he was able to order others with ease, “I can’t reach it myself.”

    Jiang Tingnan clenched and unclenched his fists, adjusted his breathing several times, then turned around and responded in a deep voice.

    Ruan Yan submerged himself in the water, leaving only his head exposed. He blinked and asked in a serious tone, “Forget it if I can’t find my previous husband. I plan to get a new one. Do you have any good suggestions?”

    Jiang Tingnan pursed his thin lips slightly, and it took him a long time to speak. His voice was slightly hoarse, “You look like you have just entered college. You should study hard and stop thinking about other things.”

    “What’s the matter? Going to college won’t delay finding a husband.” Ruan Yan lay beside the tub and said with a smile.

    “I haven’t had a husband since I was a child, and I must find one.”

    Jiang Tingnan was silent.

    Ruan Yan stood up slightly, turned his back to Jiang Tingnan, and ordered him, “Apply some shower gel for me.”

    Ruan Yan brought the shower gel from home. It smelled like peach. Jiang Tingnan made foam and applied it on Ruan Yan’s body.

    Too thin.

    Jiang Tingnan was heartbroken.

    Ruan Yan is a picky eater and doesn’t like to eat. The chefs in the family are the most frequent. For this reason, Jiang Tingnan specially invited the chef to come to his home to teach him. Whenever he has a little free time, he will try his best to cook Ruan Yan’s food with his own hands.

    If Ruan Yan gained a pound, Jiang Tingnan would be happy for a long time.

    His fingertips traced the thin back, reluctant to use a little more strength. He knew Ruan Yan’s body very well and knew where there was a small mole. He had kissed and licked it.

    For a moment of trance, Ruan Yan suddenly turned around and washed off the foam, “I don’t want to soak anymore, please bring me the bath towel.”

    Jiang Tingnan said “hmm” and turned around to get it for him.

    There was a “crash” sound behind him, and Ruan Yan had already stood up from the bathtub. The light bulb in the room was dim, and it shone on Ruan Yan’s body, as if a layer of light had passed through it, and it was as beautiful as a piece of jade.

    He directly lifted his feet and stepped forward. The water on his body slid down. From his waist to the roots of his legs, Jiang Tingnan could clearly see what he should and shouldn’t see.

    After getting married, he had never been separated from his wife for so long.

    Without being able to see Ruan Yan’s face, and not even wearing a piece of clothing that smelled like a baby, Jiang Tingnan felt like a string that had been stretched to the extreme, breaking at this moment.

    Even though this scene was in his mind, Jiang Tingnan still acted instinctively and strode over. He didn’t want Ruan Yan’s feet to step on the ground, so he supported him and let Ruan Yan step on his feet.

    Without waiting to wrap the towel around Ruan Yan, Ruan Yan suddenly leaned against him and raised his arms to hug his neck.

    Jiang Tingnan’s breath froze.

    Ruan Yan asked him seriously, “Jiang Tingnan, you don’t even remember me, how can you still be tough on me?”

    Jiang Tingnan, “…”
