Chapter 86 The Little Scoundrel's Dark Moonlight Educated Youth 21
From that day on, Wei Ping'an stayed out at night and hid during the day.
Shen Xinran had become accustomed to Wei Ping'an waking her up every time before leaving, just to kiss her.
Without even opening her eyes, Shen Xinran could say to Wei Ping'an, "I will miss you. Be careful."
As soon as Wei Ping'an left, she turned over and went back to sleep. Then she cursed in her heart: "What a bastard! He really can't bear to see her sleep peacefully."
As time went by, Shen Xinran watched Wei Ping'an transform from an innocent high school boy into a scruffy young man with dark circles under his eyes. It can only be said that work makes people ugly! Even the male protagonist can't escape it.
What Wei Ping'an is doing now cannot be known by others, he must keep it secret from everyone. So in everyone's eyes, he is still that idle little gangster.
That afternoon, Shen Xinran was still working in the fields when she suddenly saw Wei Ping'an approaching. She raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you awake?"
Wei Pingan nodded and handed Shen Xinran a kettle. "It's hot, I'm bringing you some water."
Shen Xinran opened the lid and saw that it contained malted milk. She glanced at Wei Ping'an and found that Wei Ping'an was looking at her with a smile, his eyes full of tenderness.
Shen Xinran's lips curled up slightly. Ever since Wei Ping'an started making money, her living standard had skyrocketed. She picked up the kettle and took a sip calmly.
On the other side of the field was an older woman with short hair. She chuckled, "Ping'an, are you completely dependent on your wife for support? You even remember to bring water to Mingzhu."
Wei Pingan was delighted when he heard this. "I could have relied on my parents, but they separated me. Now I can only rely on Mingzhu for support, so I must treat her well! If your aunt is envious, I can ask your uncle to give you one too!"
The short-haired lady rolled her eyes at Wei Ping'an and said, "How can your uncle have time to bring me water? You are a grown man and you are supported by your wife. Aren't you ashamed?"
Wei Pingan smiled even more happily, "What's so shameful about this? My daughter Mingzhu is not only beautiful, but also willing to support a useless man like me."
Shen Xinran, who was still standing aside, said: "..."
I really don't know when the male protagonist will be able to change his bad habit of speaking incoherently!
That night, Wei Ping'an came back in the cold wind. As soon as he opened the door, he ran into Wei Rong who had gotten up to go to the bathroom.
In Wei Ping'an's opinion, his father is a stubborn person. If he knows that he has violated the policy, even if he doesn't beat him, he will scold him severely.
But this time, his father didn't say anything. He just looked at him twice, turned around and went to the bathroom.
This surprised Wei Pingan, who stood there in a daze for a long time. So, he had been exposed long ago?
After returning to the room, he hugged Shen Xinran's waist from behind and whispered, "Mingzhu, I feel that Dad is more open-minded than I thought."
Shen Xinran was sleeping soundly when a sudden gust of cold air rushed into the quilt, and it felt like a big ice cube was stuck behind him.
She knew that Wei Ping'an had returned.
She rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "If Dad was really so stubborn, how could he have raised you for so many years? You should stop being so ungrateful."
Shen Xinran's words hit Wei Ping'an hard. Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed not easy for Old Wei over the years. He decided that he would make him less angry in the future.
The end of the year is coming soon. For Chinese people, the Spring Festival is the most important day. Every household hangs red peppers and the whole village is filled with the atmosphere of the New Year.
On the night of New Year's Eve, Wei Ping'an gave Shen Xinran a box and said to her with a smile, "Open it and take a look."
Shen Xinran had already guessed what was in the box, but she still pretended to be surprised, "You actually bought me a watch!"
Wei Pingan raised his chin and smiled proudly, "I will definitely do what I promised you."
Shen Xinran put the watch on the bedside, glanced at Wei Ping'an gently, and asked with a smile: "How much money do you have left?"
Wei Pingan coughed and said, "Twenty more."
Shen Xinran smiled but said nothing. After she bought the bicycle, she had no money left.
This resulted in Wei Ping'an spending almost all of his earnings on her. Whether it was food or clothing, he tried his best to give her the best.
Although outsiders said that she was the one who supported Wei Ping'an, only she knew that it was Wei Ping'an who supported her.
Seeing Shen Xinran staring at him, Wei Ping'an's face flushed. "Don't worry, I will work hard next year and try to buy you another radio."
Shen Xinran smiled and nodded, "Okay, then I'll wait."
…
Arriving before the radio was a letter from Li Mingzhu's mother, saying she had broken her leg and asking Li Mingzhu to go back and take care of her for a while.
But Shen Xinran knew that the broken leg was fake.
Li Mingzhu's older brother found a partner this year, Wang Jie. Wang Jie is a temporary worker at a textile factory and wants Mingzhu's mother to give her the job.
Mingzhu's mother sensitively noticed Wang Jie's little thoughts and she was in a dilemma. If she was asked to choose between her daughter and daughter-in-law, she would definitely choose her daughter.
So, before Wang Jie could speak, she pretended to fall down and wrote a letter to Li Mingzhu asking her to go back and hand over the work.
In this way, she could not hurt the relationship between her and her son, and her daughter could return to the city.
Wei Pingan watched Shen Xinran receive the letter and remained silent, feeling a little worried. "What happened?"
After Shen Xinran put the letter away, he smiled and said, "My mother broke her leg. I might have to ask for leave to go back and see her."
Wei Ping'an frowned, "I'm worried about you going so far alone, how about I accompany you?"
Shen Xinran shook his head and smiled faintly: "No, I can do it alone."
Wei Pingan didn't think much about it and turned to ride his bicycle. "Then you go pack your things first. I'll go get Dad for a letter of introduction, and then we'll go directly to the county town to buy tickets."
Shen Xinran smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Although Shen Xinran left in a hurry, Wu Chunhua still prepared a bag of local specialties for her.
"These are for your parents. Didn't you say your mother-in-law broke her leg? I specially exchanged it for a piece of ham. Take it back to her so she can heal it."
Looking at the bag full of things, Shen Xinran frowned slightly and subconsciously refused, "Mom, no thanks."
Wu Chunhua shook her head and said seriously, "How can this be possible? Since you have married into our family, you must bring more things back to let your mother-in-law know how much we value you."
Hearing Wu Chunhua say this, Shen Xinran felt inexplicably sad. She took a deep breath, smiled and nodded, "Okay, thank you, Mom."
It was already afternoon when Wei Ping'an sent Shen Xinran to the county town, and the fastest train back to Beijing was at eight o'clock in the evening.
"I bought you a sleeper berth, but there's no lower berth left. Only the middle berth is available. Please make do with it. When you get there, remember to call me to let me know you're safe..."
Seeing Wei Ping'an chattering non-stop, Shen Xinran suddenly smiled. She stood on tiptoe and kissed his lips. The kiss was full of tenderness.
This was the first time Shen Xinran kissed him. Wei Ping'an was so excited that he hugged Shen Xinran tightly and deepened the kiss.
