Shi Murou's eyes lit up, and she nodded: "It is indeed a good method that solves the problem once and for all."
She was also going to bring a few thugs with her, so that if the family she had betrothed to made trouble, they would be taught a lesson.
"But what do you think is the best token of love?"
"Letters, guarantees, or something like that, to prove the handwriting."
"That's right." Shi Murou's previous displeasure vanished, replaced by an excitement of impending battle.
Shen Liang will soon be free from suffering and caught in the middle.
He will be very happy if she steps in to resolve this matter for him, and he will love her even more.
After dusk, Shen Liang returned to Datong Lane.
This place is certainly nice, but he would prefer to live in Daying Lane so that he can get closer to Master Shi and make a good impression on him. However, it was Master Shi's idea to settle him here first and deliberately keep a certain distance.
At this time every day, Shi Murou would either have someone bring her food or come herself.
It was getting late, and the Shi family kept a close watch on her, so she didn't have many opportunities to go out.
Pushing open the door, Shen Liang saw Shi Murou in the main room. She was personally setting out his meal, wearing that glaring red and green outfit.
Shen Liang looked down at his blue robe again and felt something was off.
Soon, a smile appeared on his face, and he walked into the main room and wrapped his arms around Shi Murou's waist.
He could clearly feel that Shi Murou's waist was thicker than it had been three months ago, but his tone remained gentle.
I haven't seen you for several nights.
"I had someone lure my father away so I could sneak out." Shi Murou nestled her head in Shen Liang's arms and rubbed against him.
"Eat quickly, I need to get back as soon as I'm done."
Otherwise, if her father doesn't see her until it's dark, she'll be punished again.
"Yes, thank you for your trouble, Rou'er." Shen Liang sat down and picked up his chopsticks. Suddenly, he noticed that one of the dishes was stir-fried dried mushrooms with smoked bacon.
During this period, everyone in the village went up the mountain to pick mushrooms, and Shen Liang knew about it.
"These are the snacks I bought. They're so delicious. I saved half for you to stir-fry with smoked meat."
The villagers squeezed the mushrooms dry and took them to town to sell, so it wasn't surprising that the Shi family bought them.
Shen Liang didn't ask any more questions, but as he ate, he had a bad feeling.
"Why isn't Rou'er eating? Has she already eaten?"
"I've eaten too many snacks, my stomach is full." Shi Murou rested her chin on her hand, watching Shen Liang eat, her face beaming with smiles: "Brother Shen Liang, you only have me in your heart, you will only marry me in this life, and you won't want anyone else, right?"
"Of course, my heart for you, Rou'er, is as clear as heaven and earth, as clear as the sun and moon."
Shen Liang assumed that Shi Murou was just asking him to make promises again, something he was already used to saying.
"Words alone do not count."
"Some men, once they achieve success, abandon their wives and children and forget what they said before."
"What does Rou'er want me to do? We'll be together for decades to come, and I can't prove it to you right now. Rou'er, you just have to believe me, and every word I say comes from the bottom of my heart."
Shen Liang was now in a bit of a headache. He couldn't help but think of Qiao Xi'er's quiet and gentle demeanor. If it were Qiao Xi'er, she certainly wouldn't be so difficult to deal with.
"I need you to write a guarantee. If you break your promise, I'll take it out and let everyone judge for me."
