“Brother Wang Dong, you’re right. My older brother loves me, but his love is too strict. He says my mother has spoiled me and he wants to correct my personality. He even wants to beat me. I’m so scared. Please take me away…” Guo Lili held Wang Dong’s hand tightly, wiping away tears of fear.
Wang Dong looked horrified.
"What? He's actually going to hit you?"
But she couldn't help but feel secretly delighted. Didn't this mean that Qin Zheng valued this younger sister a lot?
A younger sister is still a younger sister. Qin Zheng was just disappointed in her. Only someone who truly loves their younger sister would do this.
Then he absolutely couldn't let Guo Lili go with him.
Wang Dong feigned a troubled expression and sighed, "Lili, it's not that I don't want to take you with me, it's just that you'll go hungry if you come with me..."
Upon hearing this, Guo Lili burst into tears again.
"What should I do? I'm scared..."
"Well... why don't you just bear with it? Your older brother loves you so much, he won't hurt you too badly, especially since you're pregnant."
"Tolerate?"
Upon hearing this, Guo Lili pouted and said, "How can I tolerate this? You have no idea what my older brother's temper and strength are. He can knock out two of my teeth with one slap!"
Wang Dong certainly knew.
Everyone in town knows Qin Zheng's abilities.
That guy almost killed someone when he was only ten years old. He's not someone to mess with. He's known since he was a kid that he can't mess with Qin Zheng.
If it weren't for Qin Zheng's status and wealth being so tempting, and Guo Lili also having some interest in him, he wouldn't have dared to make a move on Qin's son-in-law.
The bold get rich, the timid starve; he might just be able to buy a motorcycle if he takes a gamble!
Having finally reached this point, Wang Dong had no intention of taking Guo Lili away. He patiently coaxed her, "Lili, listen to me, stay here peacefully, build a good relationship with your older brother, and get him to accept us as soon as possible so that I can marry you and take you away. Do you agree?"
Fearing she wouldn't agree, he added, "Your older brother is really something, how could he hit you? That's going too far."
Guo Lili nodded repeatedly, "Yes! He not only hit me, but he also hit my sister-in-law!"
Wang Dong shuddered.
Damn, I've never heard of Qin Zheng beating his wife!
He even beats his wife. If we caught him, we'd beat him to death.
"Lili, that's settled for now. You can stay with your older brother for a while, and I'll bring you out once I've earned some money!"
"It's settled then!"
Before Guo Lili could reply, Wang Dong hurriedly turned around and disappeared into the hidden path he had come from.
"Hey! Brother Wang Dong! Brother Wang Dong!"
No matter how many times Guo Lili called out, Wang Dong didn't turn around. In fact, he ran faster and faster, which made Guo Lili stomp her feet in anger.
Just then, a voice called out from behind.
"Lili, what are you doing standing there?" Ye Yun leaned against the back door, her smile not reaching her eyes, staring at her intently.
Guo Lili felt a pang of panic.
"It's nothing, I'm just enjoying the scenery!"
She didn't know how much Ye Yun had seen, whether she knew about her secret meeting with Wang Dong, or whether she would tell Qin Zheng about it. Her voice trembled with obvious panic as she answered, but she secretly wiped away her tears and walked towards Ye Yun with a smile, pretending nothing was wrong.
"Sister-in-law, you didn't see anything, did you?"
"Of course I saw it." Ye Yun didn't hide anything from her, and smiled teasingly, "What, are you begging your little lover to take you away?"
Guo Lili's face stiffened.
"Don't worry, I won't tell your older brother," Ye Yun said with a slight smile. "But seeing your expression, it seems you didn't get what you wanted?"
Guo Lili lowered her head, "..."
“唉，你这小情郎也真是，四肢健全的一个大男人，随便打打工都养得起你，怎么舍得让你留在这里挨揍啊。”
Ye Yun left after she finished speaking.
Standing there, Guo Lili gripped her tattered clothes tightly, her eyes lowered, lost in thought.
It took her a long time to raise her head and glance in the direction Wang Dong had left.
But there were no men to be seen on the mountain path.
...
An uninvited guest suddenly arrived at the small villa.
Guo Lili happened to be taking a nap in the living room.
In a daze, she heard someone talking at the door. She opened her eyes impatiently and saw the housekeeper giving money to a young man.
She was instantly wide awake.
