The content of a date varies depending on the person you're dating.
To date Lou Xiao'e, you need to take her to all sorts of poetic and romantic places. Moreover, you can't appear overly calculating; you need to immerse yourself in the beauty of the environment, experience the wonder of nature, and firmly choose her amidst this beauty. You need to embody the quality of "Of all the waters in the world, I only choose you."
To go on a date with Qin Huairu, all you need to do is hold her hand, stroll aimlessly down the street, and occasionally exchange glances. Walk around, have a meal, and finally, go to the mall, buy her some things she might need, and say a few sweet words.
To be honest, dating Qin Jingru is the least technically demanding and most worry-free option.
In Wang Shouren's mind, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this girl would be his wife.
Nothing else, this girl is really obedient.
This girl is the type who, if you're planning to set a fire, will hand you a tinderbox from behind.
Therefore, Wang Shouren put in a lot of effort to get her to go on a date.
They don't go to tourist attractions, they just go to shopping malls and Bianyifang, they just buy and sell.
If you can dazzle the girl with your eyes, you've basically won her over.
Today's schedule was packed. Early in the morning, Wang Shouren took Qin Jingru out.
They ran into the third uncle who was just about to open the door.
The third uncle, seeing this, thought, "Wow, this is going to be interesting!" and asked with a grin, "Wow, Shouren, what's going on?"
"Uncle, hey, you really came at the right time." Wang Shouren was also a little helpless. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, thought for a moment, then took out two more and handed them to him: "You have to keep this a secret from me. This is the person Sister Qin introduced to me. You know, this matter caused quite a stir a while ago. Don't let me know."
"Don't worry, it won't leak." The old man chuckled as he took the cigarette and put it behind his ear. After thinking for a moment, he added, "However, quite a few people saw Qin Huairu bring this young lady here. Don't blame me if they find out."
"I know, I don't plan to stay too long, I'll be back later. Today, the main thing is to take Jingru around and let her see the sights."
"Okay, go ahead then. I won't bother you anymore."
"Let's go, Jingru, where do you want to go?" Wang Shouren asked.
"I...I don't know, I'll listen to you." Qin Jingru lowered her head somewhat embarrassed. She felt inferior; she had no idea what fun places there were in the capital. All she knew was that this was the city, a place where she wouldn't go hungry. Her patched clothes and rough skin told everyone that she came from the countryside.
She didn't want to appear weak in front of Wang Shouren.
"Okay, I'll take you to change your clothes first. We'll have lunch together, and later, when it's cooler, we'll go for a walk." Wang Shouren had a full schedule planned for the day.
Qin Jingru had no objections; in her heart, she already considered herself Wang Shouren's wife.
If she weren't my wife, why would I bring her out to buy clothes?
We strolled and chatted along the way.
Wang Shouren gradually made Qin Jingru less reserved while chatting with her. Perhaps it was because the girl herself was a lively person, but gradually, the two began to talk more.
The young girl even patted her chest and promised that as long as she married into the family, she would keep Wang Shouren's house clean and beautiful.
By evening, the girl had transformed, wearing beautiful clothes she'd bought from the department store, her face beaming with happiness. The two walked back together.
Wang Shouren suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" The little girl tilted her head and looked at her.
"There's something I need to make clear to you," Wang Shouren said solemnly.
Qin Jingru's expression turned panicked at a visible speed, and she stammered, "You...you...you don't not want me anymore, do you?"
Her voice trembled with tears as she spoke: "I...I can change what I did wrong."
She felt that she had seen more in one day than she had ever seen in her entire life. She wanted to stay here, to stay by Wang Shouren's side, and she didn't want to go back.
Wang Shouren struggled slightly, then slowly exhaled: "Jingru, do you want to marry me?"
"Yes, I want to!" Qin Jingru nodded rapidly.
"So after you marry me, will you listen to me?"
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Well, besides you, I'm also close to your sister."
"Uh-huh?"
!!
Wang Shouren swore that this was truly the first time he had ever seen a person's expression so vividly convey emotions such as confusion, bewilderment, and shock.
It's like eating a melon halfway through your journey, only to find it's spoiled. Before you can even spit it out, a passerby covers your mouth and shoves an iron rod down your throat with it.
"No...no, it's not?" A wisp of steam rose from Qin Jingru's head; her CPU had already burned out.
After a long pause, her tangled mind finally began to work again.
"You mean you're close to my sister?"
"Um."
"Then you still have to marry me."
"Um."
Qin Jingru: ...
She swore she had never had anything so complicated in her life. Her marriage to a city girl was a done deal, so how did a cousin suddenly appear?
"You mean you like my cousin?" Qin Jingru persisted and asked again.
"right."
"You're dating her, I mean."
"Yes, all of them have been done."
"Then what about me? What am I?" Qin Jingru's voice was trembling with tears.
Wang Shouren pulled Qin Jingru into his arms: "You're someone I like too, and so is your cousin, you know? If you tell anyone about this, I'll lose everything, I'll die. I was originally thinking of telling you slowly after we got married, maybe that way you'd soften your heart. But, but I really like you so much, I don't want to plant a thorn in your heart. So, I'm telling you now, I'm leaving the decision to you, can you tell me your decision, Jingru?"
Qin Jingru did not break free from Wang Shouren's embrace, but simply held him quietly.
Wang Shouren didn't urge her, but waited quietly. He knew that with this girl's little brain, she would need some time to think.
But he agreed to take a huge risk. If the girl went and reported him, he would probably be finished. In this day and age, that's no joke.
This was the first time he had given someone leverage over his weaknesses.
After a long while, the little girl raised her head and asked with teary eyes, "Then am I considered the legal wife?"
Wang Shouren chuckled and playfully pinched the little girl's nose: "It's settled."
