Chapter 1241: Chapter 1241: He Couldn’t Hold It In Any Longer

Upon hearing the knock on the door, the two exchanged a glance and both furrowed their brows.

At this hour, who would be so inconsiderate as to disturb us?

He Jinxuan stood up: "You eat first, I’ll see who it is."

Xinyan ignored his words and also stood up, following him into the yard.

When He Jinxuan opened the door, he saw Vice Captain Lu and his wife standing outside, somewhat displeased: "At this hour, do you have any business coming over?"

Vice Captain Lu said somewhat awkwardly: "Sorry, are we interrupting your meal?"

He Jinxuan thought, isn’t it obvious: "We were indeed just about to eat."

At this moment, Fu Guangying beside Vice Captain Lu spoke: "Captain He, it’s inconvenient to talk standing here, why not come inside and talk."

Since they were from the same unit and there were many people watching outside, he stepped aside: "Come in."

But once they entered the yard, he directly opened the main door: "What do you have to say?"

Out of politeness, Xinyan also came over: "Vice Captain Lu, sister-in-law, please have a seat inside."

The couple wanted to go inside, but before they could reply, He Jinxuan spoke up: "It’s quite hot today, it’s cooler talking in the yard, come, have a seat."

After speaking, he walked towards the grape arbor in the yard.

The couple could only follow along.

Once seated, the couple exchanged a glance, and Vice Captain Lu finally spoke: "Captain He, we came today to ask a favor."

After speaking, recalling He Jinxuan’s earlier words, he coughed somewhat embarrassedly: "Perhaps you should eat first, we can come back later."

Xinyan brought two glasses of water from inside: "Have some water."

He Jinxuan didn’t want them disturbing again later: "No need, just get to the point so you don’t have to make another trip."

Vice Captain Lu found it hard to speak, but Fu Guangying beside him didn’t want to wait: "Here’s the situation, Captain He, we’d like to borrow your motorcycle for a few days."

Upon hearing they wanted to borrow the motorcycle, He Jinxuan was about to refuse when Xinyan pulled him back.

Xinyan knew He Jinxuan would definitely refuse, but it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to say it, better she be the bad guy: "I’m sorry, sister-in-law, but we can’t lend you the bike."

Fu Guangying raised her voice a few degrees upon hearing they wouldn’t lend it: "Why?"

Xinyan didn’t care about her mood and directly lied: "The motorcycle was bought for me by my family, so that I could save time and avoid crowded public transport, as I’m really busy normally.

Moreover, a motorcycle is a costly item, others likely wouldn’t easily lend it either, because if something were to happen, dealing with the consequences is too troublesome, I hope you can understand."

Fu Guangying was somewhat displeased: "We’re all colleagues in the same courtyard, living so close, all we’re asking is to borrow the motorcycle for a bit, why are you cursing us?"

Xinyan’s face turned cold: "If that’s how you see it, there’s nothing I can do, but it’s not just about you, even if it were someone else, I’d say the same, I don’t like trouble."

Vice Captain Lu felt quite embarrassed and pulled on her: "Captain He’s family is right, such an expensive motorcycle can’t be casually loaned out, let’s go, don’t interrupt their meal."

Fu Guangying was dragged up, looking quite displeased: "Living in the same courtyard, always seeing each other, it’s just borrowing a vehicle, how could you flatly refuse."

If it weren’t for Xinyan holding him back, he would’ve lost his patience long ago.

Once Fu Guangying said this, he directly retorted: "Vice Captain Lu, what do you mean, your family’s chaos isn’t enough, now you’re spreading it here.

What did my wife say wrong, what does your wife mean, deliberately coming here to cause trouble?

Our food’s going to get cold, we won’t keep you.

Moreover, my wife enjoys peace and quiet, it seems our families aren’t fit to mingle, farewell and don’t expect a send-off."

His wife rarely comes back, and she was agitated by these two senseless folks.

He was unwilling to speak harshly to his wife, yet they so boldly came, truly they were given too much face.
