Gu An'an turned her head and saw a girl in her early twenties staring at Xiao Yuheng with sparkling eyes. How could she not know what the other person meant?

She wasn't angry; someone like Xiao Yuheng would definitely be popular in this era. But that didn't stop her from crossing her arms and standing aside, ready to watch the show.

Xiao Yuheng immediately looked at her, and of course he didn't miss the change in her expression. He felt a little helpless.

What should I do if my girlfriend is watching the drama unfold while my rival's girlfriend is just observing? Does she not love me as much as I love her?

No, she must love me too much, so she wants to see how I perform. I absolutely have to do well and not let her down.

Yes! We can't let An'an down.

After pausing for a moment, Xiao Yuheng's handsome face grew even colder. "Hmm."

After uttering that one word, he turned back to continue selecting items, occasionally asking Gu An'an a question, clearly demonstrating the closeness or distance between them.

The girl then noticed Gu An'an standing to the side, and was immediately struck by Gu An'an's face.

Seeing how familiar the two seemed, a sense of crisis suddenly arose.

"Hello, I'm Liang Qiu. I grew up following Brother Xiao around. Who are you from? I don't think I've seen you before."

Yo yo~

They were childhood sweethearts, inseparable since they were little!

Meeting Gu An'an's teasing gaze, Xiao Yuheng wasn't angry at all; on the contrary, he found Gu An'an incredibly adorable.

"I spent most of my childhood in Xiaowang Village, you know, her family lived in the commune."

The meaning is obvious: she's lying, don't believe her, I'm not that close to her.

Liang Qiu was surprised by Xiao Yuheng's words, and her smile almost faltered.

But she couldn't say anything, and could only add, "Brother Xiao does like to go to Grandma's house, but my house and Brother Xiao's house are next door, so we visit each other more often."

Being near the water gives you an advantage.

Excellent! Excellent!

Gu An'an had no intention of saying anything; she simply watched the show from the sidelines.

As for the sense of crisis that Liang Qiu deliberately created, they didn't feel it at all.

This is something a man should handle. If he can't even handle something this simple, then it's better to break up as soon as possible.

But Xiao Yuheng interpreted her ambiguous smile as anger, which made him even less fond of Liang Qiu, who had jumped out to cause trouble.

"What do you want? If not, let's go our separate ways."

Don't interfere with his relationship development with his girlfriend.

"Brother Xiao~"

Liang Qiu felt a little wronged. Could it be that she really couldn't see her feelings for him?

"Don't call me that so affectionately, I'm afraid my partner will misunderstand our relationship."

Object!!!

Although Liang Qiu had some ideas when she first saw the interaction between the two, she still couldn't accept it when she actually heard Xiao Yuheng admit it.

"No, when did you start dating? Do your parents know?"

She hoped that the Xiao couple were unaware of the affair, or even strongly opposed the relationship, so that she would still have a chance.

"Of course I know, my parents are extremely happy with An'an."

As Xiao Yuheng spoke, he instructed the saleswoman to bring out the items Gu An'an had chosen, and then she paid for them and left.

Gu An'an was quite satisfied with Xiao Yuheng's performance. If he dared to be whiny or vague, she would kick him as far as she could.

Xiao Yuheng had no idea that the girl he had just won over almost disappeared; all he could think about was getting more things for Gu An'an.

After buying their things, the two walked towards the bicycle counter. Seeing that Liang Qiu was still standing there, Gu An'an left without saying anything. But in Liang Qiu's eyes, the glance Gu An'an gave him was a provocation.

She thrashed the handkerchief in her hand, lost all interest in shopping, and turned to run home.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing her daughter's expression, Liang's mother said with concern, "Tell your parents who bullied you, and I'll have your dad deal with him."

"Mom, Brother Xiao has a girlfriend!"

Knowing her daughter's thoughts, Liang's mother immediately asked, "Who told you that? Impossible! If he had a girlfriend, would his mother not tell? Could someone be lying to you?"

Liang Qiu wished Xiao Yuheng was lying to her, but she saw it clearly.

"No, Brother Xiao said it himself. I just saw him at the supply and marketing cooperative with a girl shopping. The girl was... sob sob!"

Thinking of Gu An'an's appearance, Liang Qiu cried again, feeling distressed.

If the guy were ugly, she would still have the confidence to keep pursuing him shamelessly, but anyone with eyes could see that the girl was much prettier than her.

She really lacked confidence.

"That girl is very pretty?"

Liang Qiu paused for a moment and then threw herself into her mother's arms. "Um, Mom, why didn't you make me prettier?"

Mother Liang: ......

If it weren't for seeing her daughter crying so heartbrokenly, and Liang's mother scolding her a couple of times, she would have preferred her daughter to be prettier. But that's not something you can just wish for.

After Xiao's mother got off work, Liang's mother went to visit other people's homes.

"I heard that Ah Heng is dating someone?"

Xiao's mother knew perfectly well that someone must have seen the two children.

"You're quite well-informed."

Upon hearing this, Liang's mother sighed inwardly, "She doesn't even tell us about her boyfriend. I was wondering which family has a good daughter who is worthy of Aheng."

They're all neighbors, and Xiao's mother knows a bit about Liang Qiu's thoughts, but there's no point in talking about it now.

"I didn't expect Ah Heng to be so effective this time, winning her over so quickly. I wanted to share this good news with them, but I didn't have time."

Xiao's mother beamed with joy, her words overflowing with satisfaction for her future daughter-in-law, leaving Liang's mother speechless. She could only make an excuse to go home and persuade her daughter.

Gu An'an and her companion were unaware of what was happening. The two pushed their bicycles to register them, and their handsome man and beautiful woman attracted countless glances.

"Xiao Xiao".

"Old Xu."

A man who was over 1.8 meters tall walked towards them, wearing a police uniform. The two gave each other a big hug as soon as they met.

"An'an, this is my comrade-in-arms Xu Zhi. He works at the Public Security Bureau now. You can ask him for help if you encounter any problems in the future."

Then she looked at Xu Zhi and said, "This is my girlfriend, Gu An'an. She's a sent-down youth in Xiaowang Village. Please take good care of her while I'm away."

In Xu Zhi's eyes, Xiao Yuheng was an abstinent workaholic. They enlisted in the army in the same year, and Xu Zhi was two years older than Xiao Yuheng. When the lights were turned off at night and others were discussing who the main performer of the cultural troupe was, Xiao Yuheng never interrupted.

But now, his henpecked behavior is truly unbearable to look at.

But her boyfriend is indeed very good-looking, no less so than the leading lady of the performing arts troupe, no wonder...

Regardless of what he was thinking, Xu Zhi remained enthusiastic, "Sister-in-law, Xiao Xiao doesn't have much free time in the army, so come find me if you need anything."

Gu An'an would certainly not refuse. No matter what era it is, having someone in the court always makes things easier.

"Hello Brother Xu, I am Gu An'an, a sent-down youth. Please take care of me."

After a brief greeting, Xiao Yuheng noticed his unshaven appearance and asked, "Just got back from a mission?"

Xu Zhi didn't hide it. Anyway, the incident that night caused quite a stir, and everyone in the area knew about it, so there was nothing he couldn't say.

"That's right, I don't know which genius caught four enemy agents for us."
