"Uncle Xiaoyuan, that's how it is, but it's not my fault. Yanzi and I were both willing..." Yanzi, whom Liu Yang was referring to, was naturally Ming Ge's girlfriend.
"I don't care about your nonsense. From now on, be nicer to your grandparents, you hear me!" Liu Xiaoyuan shouted.
"Okay, okay!" Liu Yang nodded repeatedly, indicating that he understood.
Afterwards, Liu Xiaoyuan rode his motorcycle and took Liu Yunyi and his grandson home.
After arriving home and getting out of the car, Liu Yang looked hesitant to speak. Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Say what you have to say, or spit it out!"
Liu Yang thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Xiaoyuan, it seems that Aunt Xiaoqian is going to Huilong Reservoir for a picnic tomorrow, and it seems that she will stay overnight. Qi Ming seems to be going too!"
"Are you telling the truth?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked, frowning.
“It’s all true. I heard it from Yanzi. Back in school, Qi Ming wrote a love letter to Aunt Xiaoqian!” Liu Yang said.
"Okay, I understand!" Liu Xiaoyuan nodded and said.
The "Aunt Xiaoqian" that Liu Yang mentioned is Liu Xiaoqian, the daughter of Liu Xiaoyuan's uncle. She is also a first-year high school student this year. Her mother is a doctor at a hospital, and her father is a traffic policeman. Therefore, Xiaoqian lives with her parents in the county town.
As for Qi Ming, he's the guy Liu Xiaoyuan threw a brick at tonight that hit him on the forehead.
Upon receiving this news, I couldn't help but feel wary. One can never be too careful. Although my cousin was only fifteen years old, she was already quite beautiful and had a graceful bearing.
As Liu Yang just mentioned, Qi Ming pursued his cousin. If he had designs on her, what would happen to her, a young woman?
No, I have to stop my cousin from going to this picnic!
Liu Xiaoyuan originally wanted to call his cousin, but when he looked at the time, it was already past eleven o'clock. Maybe his cousin was already asleep, so he decided to call her tomorrow morning.
When he got home, his parents immediately asked how things went. Liu Xiaoyuan said everything was taken care of and he was fine.
The next morning, as soon as Liu Xiaoyuan got up, he called his cousin Liu Xiaoqian.
Liu Xiaoqian on the other end of the phone seemed to be still half asleep, and said lazily, "Brother, what's the matter that you're calling so early? Don't you know that disturbing other people's rest is a very impolite thing to do?"
Liu Xiaoyuan asked directly, "Are you going on a picnic today?"
“Yes, brother, how did you know?” Liu Xiaoqian asked.
"How do I know, no matter what? You can't go to the picnic today. Stay home and behave yourself!" Liu Xiaoyuan said.
Liu Xiaoqian was at the rebellious age, so she wouldn't listen to Liu Xiaoyuan. She said, "Brother, you should just go to work. Don't worry about me. I'm hanging up now, I'm going to sleep a little longer!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone before Liu Xiaoyuan could say anything more.
Holy crap! How dare they hang up on me? They're getting more and more disrespectful!
Liu Xiaoyuan couldn't just stand by and watch his cousin go on a picnic. Since she was going, he decided to go too!
After having breakfast, Liu Xiaoyuan rode his motorcycle to Huaqiang Hotel to take care of some business, and then rode his motorcycle to Huilong Reservoir in the county town.
Huilong Reservoir is a medium-sized reservoir with a storage capacity of tens of millions of cubic meters. Downstream of the reservoir, there is also a hydroelectric power plant!
Because Huilong Reservoir is surrounded by mountains on three sides, there is a wide and flat lawn at the junction of the mountains and the reservoir. The lush green grass makes it a great place to relax and unwind!
Therefore, this is a tourist attraction, and many people like to camp here.
After arriving at Huilong Reservoir, Liu Xiaoyuan parked his motorcycle in the designated parking spot and began searching for his cousin, Liu Xiaoqian.
Because it's summer vacation, there are many tourists here, mostly students.
Some people sat in twos and threes in the shade, eating and playing cards; couples sat on the lawn whispering sweet nothings; and some people were fishing by the reservoir under large parasols…
Looking at the emerald green water in the reservoir, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately felt the heat of the sun disappear without a trace, replaced by a cool sensation.
As Liu Xiaoyuan walked, he looked around. However, because the reservoir covered such a large area, if he were to walk around it on this hot day, the sun would surely bake him until he was scorched.
Fortunately, perseverance paid off, and with Liu Xiaoyuan's efforts, he finally found Liu Xiaoqian.
Liu Xiaoqian and her group consisted of eight people, four men and four women, sitting on the shady grass, talking and laughing.
Upon closer inspection, Qi Ming, whom he had hit on the forehead with a brick the night before, was also among them.
It seems Liu Yang's information was accurate; Qi Ming is indeed here.
"Liu Xiaoqian!" Liu Xiaoyuan shouted loudly from more than ten meters away.
As Liu Xiaoqian was speaking, she heard someone call her name. She looked up and saw Liu Xiaoyuan walking towards her, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Liu Xiaoqian stood up from the lawn and waited until Liu Xiaoyuan was less than two meters away from her before asking, "Brother, what brings you here?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "I'm here for a picnic too!"
After saying that, Liu Xiaoyuan glanced at Qi Ming, who was sitting next to his cousin.
Qi Ming vividly remembers what happened last night; his forehead is still swollen.
As the saying goes, enemies are especially hostile when they meet, and Qi Ming glared fiercely at Liu Xiaoyuan. However, after witnessing Liu Xiaoyuan's skills last night, Qi Ming dared not speak out against his anger.
"Brother-in-law!" A familiar voice suddenly rang out.
Liu Xiaoyuan was very familiar with this voice. Why was Tan Wanqiu here?
"What are you doing here?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked, somewhat surprised.
"I'm having a picnic! Brother-in-law, Xiaoqian and I are classmates!" Tan Wanqiu said with a smile.
Wow! What a coincidence! Tan Wanqiu is actually in the same class as her cousin.
"Wanqiu, what did you call me, brother? Brother-in-law?" Liu Xiaoqian asked in surprise.
"Yes! Your brother is my brother-in-law, Xiaoqian. From now on, we're even closer relatives!" Tan Wanqiu said happily as she ran to Liu Xiaoqian's side and took her arm.
"Brother, when did you get together with Wanqiu's sister? Why didn't you tell me? That's so unfair!" Liu Xiaoqian said with a dissatisfied expression.
Liu Xiaoyuan glared at his cousin and said, "Why do you need to know so much? All you need to do now is study hard!"
"Tch!" Liu Xiaoqian waved her hand and said, "Brother, stop acting all high and mighty. How old are you? You already talk like my parents. How boring is that?"
"Alright, brother-in-law, we're all here to have fun today. Talking about studying is so boring. Come sit down and have some fruit!" Tan Wanqiu pulled Liu Xiaoyuan to sit down.
Then, Tan Wanqiu picked up an apple and handed it to Liu Xiaoyuan, saying, "Brother-in-law, have an apple to quench your thirst."
Liu Xiaoyuan took the apple, glanced at her, and thought to herself, "Look at Tan Wanqiu, you, as her cousin, aren't even as good as her sister-in-law!"
