Zheng Ya rode his bicycle to the foot of the mountain, ten miles away, and was surprised to meet Xu Qi.
Xu Qi was also surprised. She got up early in the morning to go hunting, and after crossing several mountains, she had not found any prey. When she met Zheng Ya here, she misunderstood: "You were following me?"
“I said, sister-in-law…” Zheng Ya was displeased, but before he could explain, Xu Qi interrupted him reproachfully: “Who are you calling sister-in-law?”
"Uh, may I ask how I should address you?" Zheng Ya was annoyed. She was already married and had a daughter, so what else should she be called but sister-in-law?
Xu Qi said somewhat shyly, "My name is Xu Qi. You can call me Sister Xu or Sister Qi, it's fine either way."
"What's wrong with you? You want to be my older sister? Forget it."
I'm afraid your husband will misunderstand, and who can you reason with then?" Zheng Ya knew that the sworn siblings he knew were not in a legitimate relationship.
Especially in this age of advanced internet technology, is it necessary for them to have sex?
There may be genuine feelings in this era, such as adopting godparents and giving sincere emotions, but Zheng Ya cannot adapt to it.
I can't accept it, at least not in the short term.
Xu Qi sighed and walked into the woods, saying without turning her head, "My husband was beaten to death before we even shared a room?"
"Huh?" Zheng Ya was confused and didn't understand what she meant.
Xu Qi didn't know why she told him the truth, and shyly went into the woods to hunt for a living.
If I don't catch any prey today, I won't be able to explain it to Xu Huizhen.
Staying in someone else's house and asking them to help take care of your child, what does it matter if you go out of town to hunt and don't catch anything?
Losing face is a small matter; what's a big deal is that it delays Xu Huizhen's betting and causing her to lose money and lose face.
The incident occurred in the early morning. Xu Qi got up and washed up, which was seen by the manager of the tavern, who then questioned Xu Qi about her identity.
It's really just making trouble out of nothing, using the opportunity to flatter his wife.
Xu Qi, being the kind of person she was, saw through the other party's intentions at a glance. She ignored him, and the other party called Xu Huizhen out to lecture her, saying that Xu Huizhen was harboring shady characters and affecting the tavern's business.
Anyway, there are no nice things to say. They just use this as an excuse to cause trouble. In reality, the company manager's sense of presence and superiority is just for pleasing people.
Xu Huizhen explained that Xu Qi's actual situation—that he was living off hunting—couldn't be kept secret, and it would be better for someone to come forward.
To avoid being reported and causing misunderstandings.
These days, the top priority is for the military and civilians to work together to prevent enemy agents from taking advantage of loopholes and causing sabotage.
Proving her identity was necessary, but the other party wouldn't let it go, refusing to believe that Xu Qi's slender figure was that of a hunter.
In the end, they even claimed that Xu Qi was a suspected enemy agent and that he needed to be arrested and taken to the street office for investigation and verification of his identity.
This made Xu Huizhen lose face, so she made a bet with the other party that she could hunt five wild rabbits in one day to prove Xu Qi's identity.
At the same time, it saves face for Xu Huizhen.
He's been running the tavern for five or six years, and he can't even ensure that he's a fellow villager of Xu Qi. How can he face people?
The manager was only after Xu Qi and was just relentlessly pursuing her.
In the heat of the moment, they made a bet, agreeing that Xu Qi would be the winner if he could catch five wild rabbits in a day, with a bet of one hundred yuan.
They secretly tried to save face, got into a fight, made a bet, and the outcome would be revealed by evening.
Xu Qi hadn't taken this seriously at first, but he never expected that hunting in the mountains would be such a great success, with five wild rabbits being a piece of cake.
Unfortunately, Zheng Ya had caught all the wild rabbits in the nearby mountains and forests.
This resulted in Xu Qi wasting his entire morning's work, without catching any prey.
This is driving me crazy!
So, Xu Qi hunted all the way to the mountains and forests more than ten miles away. When she met Zheng Ya, she was flustered and had the idea of getting close to Zheng Ya as a way out. She revealed her marital history, which could be considered a hint.
After Zheng Ya put the bicycle into his special ability space, he followed Xu Qi into the woods and said, "There are no prey within 80 meters, you don't need to crouch down to look for prey..."
"With such a dense forest, how did you find that there was no prey within eighty meters?" Xu Qi was taken aback and straightened up to ask in return. Could it be true?
Zheng Ya naturally couldn't tell her that he possessed a special ability with a perception range of eighty meters, so he lied and said, "You said I'm a grandmaster, so it's not surprising that I have keen perception, right?"
"Okay, I believe you. Go ahead and do what you need to do. I'm going hunting." Xu Qi still didn't know how to face this young man.
Moreover, this young man didn't show any affection or say anything about her, making it quite awkward to be together.
When Zheng Ya saw her awkwardly disappear into the woods, based on his experience of being reborn three times, he realized that she was interested in him.
It's all because of the internet's development; all sorts of gossip, midnight videos, and affairs are popping up everywhere.
For Zheng Ya, even if he had never eaten pork, he had seen pigs run!
Understanding the meaning behind Xu Qi's confession, he followed her tentatively, somewhat uncertainly: "I'm planning to open a stall to do business recently. Do you have anyone suitable to introduce me to as a business partner?"
"Oh, really? No, what kind of business are you planning to start?"
"Now that the country is in a state of public-private partnership, it's not appropriate for you to do business, is it?" Xu Qi responded with a series of pleasant surprises, but by the end, she was expressing concern and offering words of comfort.
Good heavens, good heavens, good heavens?
Is this how you express your feelings?
Having experienced something like this for the first time in his three lifetimes, Zheng Ya felt very excited, and his blood was boiling.
The key is that Xu Qi is naturally beautiful and charming, perfectly matching Zheng Ya's aesthetic standards. She is beautiful without being gaudy, and charming and captivating.
She seemed to be naturally beautiful, more than ten times better than Qin Huairu with her seductive face. Whether it was her curvaceous figure, her oval face with dimples, or her ponytail, she looked incredibly charming in her tight-fitting clothes.
Besides, what's going on since her husband didn't consummate their marriage?
This made Zheng Ya excitedly say, "You're worried about me?"
"I...I'm ignoring you." Xu Qi then realized that she had lost her composure. She was so worried that his business would run into problems that she forgot to hide her emotional outburst.
How embarrassing! Xu Qi stomped her foot and turned to leave.
It's like finding love around the corner!
Isn't this a million times better than that troublemaker Wu Wei?
Besides, the first sign of true affection is when two people make eye contact!
Zheng Ya followed with a silly grin and said, "You're just leaving like that?"
"You, you stop following me. I have to hunt five rabbits today, or Xu Huizhen will lose a hundred coins to someone else!" Xu Qi stopped three meters away, afraid that he would misunderstand, and turned to explain to him.
Her Prince Charming was right in front of her; she was truly afraid of missing out!
Zheng Ya approached her somewhat shyly and said, "I understand, and I will also help you hunt five wild rabbits."
But before that, can you tell me about Bao'er?
"You men are all the same, why do you care so much?" Xu Qi was angry that he didn't trust her. She had already said that she hadn't consummated her marriage with anyone, so why was he still asking?
Now it was Zheng Ya's turn to panic. He waved his hand and said, "Don't misunderstand!"
I just want to know more about you, don't I?
Why don't you ask me first? I promise I'll answer everything I know. Mutual understanding is essential for love to blossom..."
"You wish..."
