Li Baolong led Xiaoru and her daughter to the small two-bedroom apartment downstairs from his building. Upon opening the door, the apartment was spotless, fully furnished with all the necessary appliances. Xiaoru was overjoyed; it was a new place, and Xiaoxing was equally excited. Li Baolong told Xiaoru, "You'll live here from now on. Take good care of the child for a while. Things will be easier when she starts kindergarten in the fall." Touched by Li Baolong's thoughtfulness, Xiaoru quickly said, "I'll cook for you from now on." Li Baolong smiled and said, "Okay, I'll come over for meals whenever I have time. Once Xingxing starts kindergarten, you can go out and find a job."
After parting ways with Xiaoru, Li Baolong returned home, watched the news for a while, and then collapsed on the sofa, almost falling asleep. Just then, the phone rang. Li Baolong answered, and a woman's voice said, "Are you Li Baolong? This is Yuanyuan. Do you remember me? Your cousin Chunhua gave me your number." Li Baolong replied, "Oh, I remember. I heard you're studying at university in Rongcheng. I also work in Rongcheng. Come visit me sometime, I'll treat you to dinner and drinks." Yuanyuan, however, said coquettishly, "Then you'll treat me to dinner tonight!" Li Baolong had no choice but to say, "Okay, tell me where, I'll come find you."
Li Baolong drove to the barbecue restaurant Yuanyuan had mentioned, and spotted her as soon as he entered. Good heavens, two years had passed, and the girl had changed so much! She was dressed incredibly fashionably, in black stockings and ankle boots, her skin still fair and delicate, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling alluringly, and her ample bosom was captivating; anyone who saw her couldn't help but steal a few glances. Yuanyuan saw Li Baolong and quickly greeted him, "Brother Bao, over here!" Li Baolong remembered that Yuanyuan was a few months older than him. They hadn't seen each other since they parted ways at the video arcade.
The two sat down to eat and chat, and it was during this conversation that they learned Yuanyuan worked as a hostess at a karaoke bar. She had a good alcohol tolerance and earned a couple hundred yuan a day. Yuanyuan said that after her boyfriend passed away from illness, she started working to earn money and no longer wanted to get married. Upon hearing this, Li Baolong quickly comforted her, "What's past is past; we should cherish the present."
After they drank a few bottles of beer, Yuanyuan's face was flushed. She seemed to have found a kindred spirit in Li Baolong and poured out her troubles from the past two years, telling him how unhappy she had been. Li Baolong listened and then drove Yuanyuan for a drive. They stopped at a small park by the Funan River. Li Baolong said to Yuanyuan, "Let's take a walk in the park." Yuanyuan wasn't shy at all and readily took Li Baolong's arm.
Yuanyuan tilted her head and asked, "Brother Bao, you don't have a girlfriend right now, can't we date? If you agree, I promise I won't let any other man touch me. I'll just change jobs, okay?" Li Baolong smiled gently and replied, "Yuanyuan, let's just be friends for now, don't talk about relationships yet. I haven't graduated yet."
Yuanyuan's eyes sparkled as she said, "I can never forget the time I held you in the video arcade. Actually, I fell in love with you then." The two sat on a park bench, and Yuanyuan, unusually bold, suddenly threw herself into Li Baolong's arms, muttering, "I feel so safe in your arms, you know?"
Li Baolong was puzzled. He hadn't seen Yuanyuan for two years, and she'd become so proactive—was she in a hurry to get married? Just then, Yuanyuan sat on his lap and said sweetly, "Baolong, let's be a couple! I'll definitely be good and serve you well." She then leaned in and gave him a kiss. Li Baolong had no choice but to accept. The two cuddled and snuggled for a long time before Li Baolong patted Yuanyuan and said, "It's too late, let's go home."
Yuanyuan persisted, saying, "Baolong, take me tonight! I'll be your woman from now on, I'll have your babies, do your laundry, and cook for you." Li Baolong laughed and said, "Silly girl, what are you saying? What's the rush?" Yuanyuan said with a sob in her voice, "I'm afraid you'll be snatched away by another woman." Li Baolong had no choice but to coax her, "I'll talk about marriage after I graduate. For now, we can date. You don't need to work as a hostess at KTV anymore. I'll find you a job, you can come to my company."
Yuanyuan nodded slightly and said softly, "Baolong, I'm willing to follow your arrangements." Then, the two held hands and slowly left the park. They reached the car, and Li Baolong gentlemanly opened the door. After Yuanyuan was seated, he went around to the driver's seat and started the car. Throughout the journey, a warm yet somewhat ambiguous atmosphere filled the car.
A short while later, the car stopped downstairs at the small single room that Yuanyuan rented. Li Baolong carefully got out of the car, then quickly walked to the other side to open the car door for Yuanyuan and helped her out. They then walked together up the stairs to Yuanyuan's doorstep.
Just as Li Baolong was about to turn and leave, Yuanyuan suddenly hugged him tightly from behind and said coquettishly, "Don't go, stay and keep me company, talk to me, okay?" In that instant, Li Baolong's heart trembled, and the scene in front of him had a sense of déjà vu, as if he had experienced it before.
Yuanyuan gently removed her coat, revealing her captivating figure. Slightly plump, her body was perfectly rounded and full, her skin fair and delicate, like porcelain. At that moment, Yuanyuan resembled a blooming, beautiful flower, radiating a mesmerizing fragrance and charm.
She wriggled into Li Baolong's arms like a cute little kitten, and began to whine, "Darling, what kind of job are you planning to get me?" Li Baolong smiled and replied, "I think you could work at my sister Honghong's beauty salon. The pay and benefits there are pretty good. Plus, you have relevant work experience, so learning again should be very easy for you!" Hearing this, Yuanyuan blinked her bright eyes and nodded obediently, "Okay, I promise you. But... you have to promise me one thing too!"
Yuanyuan parted her lips slightly, and her small, alluring cherry-like mouth kissed him without warning. Li Baolong felt a wave of heat instantly wash over him; how could he resist such temptation? And so, the two quickly became entangled like dry tinder, engaging in a fierce battle.
It's important to know that Li Baolong's skills have recently improved significantly, making him a force to be reckoned with. After several exchanges, poor Yuanyuan was repeatedly at a disadvantage and ultimately had no choice but to surrender. Time passed by, and a full hour later, exhausted Yuanyuan finally couldn't hold on any longer and raised her hands in surrender.
She lay limply in Li Baolong's broad embrace, panting softly, like a docile kitten. Between breaths, she playfully scolded, "Baolong, you're so naughty! How do you know so many strange and wonderful tricks? Who taught you all of that?" Hearing this, Li Baolong chuckled smugly, then replied mysteriously, "Hehe, I learned them all from the video arcade!"
The words had barely left her lips when Yuanyuan, who had been nestled in his arms, suddenly became furious, her eyebrows furrowing in anger. She raised her small fists and began to pound on Li Baolong's chest, muttering repeatedly, "You! You actually went to a place like that behind my back to learn these things..."
