It was Du Xinxin who spoke.
"No, I...I..." Dongfang Bo stammered, his words were as clumsy as the waistband of his cotton trousers.
"Then tell me what you are talking about."
"Xinxin, my brain is short-circuited." Dongfang Bo said embarrassedly.
"You're so stupid! You have to tell me what you've been doing in the past ten years and why you disappeared without a word."
Du Xinxin slowly guided him, "I want to hear the truth, not a single lie."
"Okay, you're all wet now, why don't you take a hot shower first?"
Du Xinxin: “…”
When people talk about this, he says that. When people talk about the city gate tower, he talks about hips and elbows. Is that okay?
"Bathing is another matter. I want to hear it now." Du Xinxin was extremely anxious to know the answer and didn't want to talk about anything else.
Dongfang Bo paused and sorted out his thoughts. "The year I disappeared, I was targeted by my enemies. Eleven masters wanted to kill me..."
Dongfang Bo spoke slowly, trying his best to restore the past. Du Xinxin listened attentively, not missing a single word. Sometimes she was nervous, sometimes relaxed, and sometimes angry...
After a while, Dongfang Bo finished his story. "This is what happened. I have explained everything I need to say."
"You mean to say you've been locked up? You're not deliberately avoiding me or ignoring me?"
"Of course not. You are the girl I love the most. How could I bear to abandon you? How stupid would I be? How stupid would I be?" Dongfang Bo said word by word.
"You are gentle and generous, virtuous and kind. We get along very well and have a tacit understanding. You can immediately sense any emotion I have."
"Give me comfort and support. I will always remember the kindness you showed me. I will never forget it."
"Except for you, where else can I find a girlfriend like this?" Dongfang Bo was not eloquent, but sincere. He just said what was in his heart.
Du Xinxin's eyes were slightly red. She slowly walked forward, hugged the person she loved, and burst into tears again, "I thought you didn't want me anymore. Ten years, I waited for you for ten years."
For a woman, ten years means something.
That is the youth that is gone forever, the beauty that can never be replaced.
A woman is like a gorgeous flower. Her peak period is very short and her best years are only a dozen years.
Before the age of eighteen, you are still a minor and ignorant. At the age of thirty, you are a young woman. At the age of forty... you are already out of date.
Overall, how many years of good times did we have?
However, Du Xinxin has been single and alone for the past ten years, and has never had any ambiguous relationship with anyone. She has thought about looking for someone again, but even though her family has urged her several times, she has said every few days that she still insists on being herself and has never wavered.
She just wanted to wait for Dongfang Bo, and she had no other choice but to think about other things.
The key is that she can't tolerate others in her heart. No matter how outstanding or rich they are, she will reject them one by one without any pretense.
"I'm sorry, Xinxin, I feel so guilty towards you." Dongfang Bo formally hugged his beloved woman and held her tightly, fearing that he would accidentally miss her again.
"It's not your fault. It's all because of that old man who is so mean, so unscrupulous and unreasonable." Du Xinxin said sympathetically.
"Xinxin, are you still willing to accept me?"
"Yes." Du Xinxin agreed immediately without any hesitation.
"Xinxin."
"Xiao Bai."
The two looked at each other affectionately and couldn't help but move closer. The two pairs of lips were getting closer and closer, and they could feel each other's hot breath.
Just as they were about to kiss, a low murmur reached his ears.
"Auntie..."
Du Xinxin was startled and immediately stepped back to keep a distance. Things that are not suitable for children should not be seen by children, so they should be avoided.
"Nannan." Du Xinxin walked over and found that the child was talking in her sleep and had not woken up.
"Um...Xinxin, I'll go to your house tomorrow."
"What are you going to do?" Du Xinxin asked knowingly, almost guessing Dongfang Bo's purpose.
"To propose marriage."
Upon hearing this, Du Xinxin's fair cheeks blushed.
"We missed out on ten years and don't want to waste every minute of the remaining time."
"I want to marry you." Dongfang Bo expressed his true feelings.
"Okay." Du Xinxin nodded shyly.
She had been longing for this day and had been waiting for it for a long time, so how could she refuse?
The girl couldn't hide her thoughts, nor did she want to hide them. She just hoped that Dongfang Bo would come to her house to propose marriage.
Dongfang Bo smiled faintly, feeling extremely happy, as if he had seen the sun and moon after the clouds had parted. "Xinxin, thank you for waiting. It is my honor to marry you. If there is a next life, I will marry you home sooner rather than later and will never let you wait in such misery."
"It's a deal!" Du Xinxin raised her right hand and spread out her palm.
"It's a deal!"
The two palms hit each other solemnly, and the oath was made.
"Xinxin, it's getting late. You should call home so as not to make them worry." Dongfang Bo glanced outside.
"Yeah!" Before Du Xinxin could dial the number, her cell phone rang first.
"Mom." Du Xinxin answered the phone.
"Daughter, it's raining heavily outside. Where have you taken Nannan? When will you come back?" A loving voice came out.
"My daughter and I can't go home today, so we found a hotel outside."
"Not coming back?" Du's mother asked suspiciously.
"Um!"
"Girl, tell me the truth, do you have a boyfriend?" A mother knows a girl best and guessed it immediately.
Du Xinxin's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Tell me, what can't you tell me? I can't wait for you to find a partner. Look at how old you are. I'm worried to death." Du's mother has indeed been worried a lot over the years and is very upset.
I asked my daughter to go on a blind date, but she always refused and refused no matter what. She was as stubborn as a cow.
When someone pursued my daughter, she had a stern face and ignored him. If I didn't know that she had been in a relationship before, I would have suspected that her child had some psychological problems.
Maybe I don't like men.
"Mom, someone is coming to our house tomorrow. You should be prepared and don't be negligent." Du Xinxin revealed a little.
"who?"
"Anyway, someone is going." Du Xinxin's voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum, shy and timid.
"Is he a man?"
Du Xinxin: “…”
But Du Xinxin still responded, "Yeah."
"Tell Mom, do I know this person? Has he ever been to our house? When did you start?" Du's mother asked curiously.
"Mom, you'll know when you go there tomorrow."
"Okay." Du's mother said cheerfully. You could tell she was very happy. "I won't bother you anymore. Have fun. You obviously went out on a date and brought your daughter with you."
"You silly girl, you don't know anything. What if the man is not happy?"
"When you're in a relationship, you can't just do whatever you want. You have to consider the other person's feelings."
"Mom, are you done yet?" Du Xinxin was speechless.
"Okay, Mom is hanging up now. My daughter, I have one last question for you: do you need to bring Nannan back? I'm afraid she'll disturb your world of two."
"Mom has been through this, she understands."
Du's mother is open-minded.
