She forced a smile. "Yes, yes, I really do envy your rocking chair."
He sighed, feigning a sigh, and said, "Ah! Your wife is still the best to you!"
"I'd even make you a rocking chair!"
Sure enough, Wu Dali was thrilled!
He lay back down and started rocking, saying, "You can only look on with envy! I won't even let you touch me!"
Xie Yanwu uttered a great word; this person must be seriously ill!
He is a kind person and doesn't hold grudges against people with serious illnesses!
Xie Yan forced a smile and looked away, feigning reluctance.
As expected, Xie Yan's performance greatly pleased Wu Dali. He happily patted the armrest, his eyes full of pride!
Xie Yan: "..."
Just as Yu Yue said!
That feels so good!
Xie Yan seized the opportunity, offering a few compliments, which made Wu Dali so eager to become sworn brothers with Xie Yan.
Xie Yan changed the subject and asked in a low voice, "Do you have those kinds of books here?"
Wu Dali, being a married man, understood immediately.
He sized Xie Yan up with ill intent. "Did your wife criticize your skills? Did you come here specifically to learn from me?"
Xie Yan sighed, feigning sadness, "Alas! You know my situation..."
Wu Dali laughed upon hearing this, his face full of schadenfreude.
Her eyes, which weren't big to begin with, narrowed into slits when she smiled.
Xie Yan's expression changed, and his tone shifted abruptly, "If I were to be disliked, I would have been disliked long ago, otherwise I wouldn't have waited until now!"
Sure enough, Wu Dali's face immediately fell.
Xie Yan was amazed by his speed in changing his expression; he was practically a natural talent for Sichuan opera face-changing! What a pity!
He sat down next to Wu Dali, pretending to be mysterious, and said, "It's like this, I have a friend who is quite pitiful. He has never seen this thing before and is really curious about it."
"You've come all this way, but I don't have anything here! I've searched everywhere but haven't found it."
"I suddenly thought of you, brother. I felt that only you could have something this good, so I came to ask you!"
Hearing this, Wu Dali felt a surge of warmth and satisfaction! He stood up and looked at Xie Yan arrogantly, "Hmph! You do have some taste; this is something money can't buy!"
"How could anyone else possibly have that!"
Xie Yan quickly chimed in, "Yes! Things like this are really hard to come by even if you have money! I wanted to get a copy for myself before, but it was just too difficult!"
"I tried many connections, but in the end I still couldn't get it. I still feel regretful about it to this day!"
Wu Dali looked down at Xie Yan and said, "Of course! Is this something that ordinary people can have?" He spent a lot of money to get his hands on this book.
He had kept it treasured at the bottom of his trunk all these years; it was his precious possession. When he went to the countryside, the first thing he thought of was to bring it with him.
It was thanks to this book that Cherry was completely won over, and only then was she able to live such a comfortable life!
Ah! He was right to have foresight!
Seeing his smug expression, Xie Yan knew that things were almost done! He then smiled and said, "Look, could we lend him that book to study and learn from?"
After looking around to make sure no one was there, Wu Dali suddenly approached Xie Yan, startling Xie Yan so much that he instinctively leaned back and almost fell over!
Wu Dali grabbed Xie Yan's arm and whispered, "Is your friend Gu Bin?"
Gu Bin and Xie Yan have a good relationship; everyone in the village knows that!
The friend who could make Xie Yan go to such lengths must be Gu Bin!
Xie Yan: "..."
Sorry, my friend!
He gritted his teeth and said with a smile, "It's him! But he's shy, so you absolutely mustn't tell anyone!"
"I promised him I would keep it a secret!"
Wu Dali grinned slyly, "Don't worry, why would I go around telling everyone about something like this? You wait here, I'll get you the book right away!"
Xie Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him enter the room. Great! He got the book!
As for Gu Bin, who took the blame, sorry, in order to make up for it, Xie Yan decided to let him watch it after he finished watching it himself, so that he could make plans for the future as soon as possible!
Xie Yan praised himself for his thoughtfulness. "Wow! The way he cares about Gu Bin is like he's Gu Bin's own brother."
A moment later, Wu Dali came out with a book wrapped in old newspapers. The book looked like it had been read for many years, and the paper had turned yellow!
Xie Yan took the book but didn't rush to read it. Instead, he smiled at Wu Dali and said, "Don't worry, I'll make sure he cherishes your book!"
"I'll return it to you exactly as it was after I've read it!"
"I guarantee you won't fold a single page."
Wu Dali chuckled and patted Xie Yan's arm. "Take a look around more often, but the most important thing is practice. Let me tell you, I have a lot of experience with this..."
Xie Yan was forced to listen to someone's thoughts for an hour. In the end, he couldn't take it anymore and fled in embarrassment!
After leaving the house, Xie Yan patted his burning cheeks and let out a long sigh!
Oh my god!
This is so embarrassing!
Wu Dali really can say anything!
She even told him which position was most likely to result in conception!
Xie Yan felt that Wu Dali was unclean and had a sty. This Wu Dali was really too scary!
Why do you say everything out loud? You're treating him like family.
The cool breeze blowing in his face dispelled the heat from his face, and Xie Yan then headed home.
Back at Xie Yan's house, he furtively locked the door from the inside. Still not feeling safe, he looked around to make sure no one was there before opening the book.
I just opened the book and then slammed it shut again, oh my god!
How could this book be so explosive? The illustration on the first page made Xie Yan extremely embarrassed! He looked around nervously, but the surroundings were still the same as before—empty and deserted, with only him by himself, and not even a breeze.
Even though he was all alone, Xie Yan felt extremely guilty and unsafe!
The sound of a child crying came from afar, which startled Xie Yan. He ran over and closed the door to the inner room as well.
It seems like this gives me a greater sense of security.
I took a deep breath, opened it again, and this time with a learning attitude, started reading. This book is truly shameful; it contains everything imaginable, and it's even in color! The size is also ridiculously bold!
Xie Yan blushed and her heart raced as she watched.
I couldn't stand it anymore halfway through, so I went to pour myself a big glass of water and drank it. After cooling down a bit, I continued watching.
Xie Yan's first thought after seeing the body was to destroy the evidence!
If the book weren't not his own, Xie Yan would definitely have destroyed the evidence!
It's true, there really is a barrier between words and pictures. He had read books with explicit content before, and at the time he thought that was the limit.
But I never imagined that human limits could be constantly being broken!
I really learned something new this time!
