It was Zhou Xiaoye's first time riding a motorcycle, and he didn't expect it to go so fast. Suddenly, he fell onto Li Weidong's back.
Li Weidong felt the softness on his back and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly coughed and said, "Xiao Ye, you have to hold me. It can't be too dangerous."
Looking at the broad back in front of her, Zhou Xiaoye's pretty face instantly turned bright red. Although she was tempted, she was still too shy to reach out and only cautiously grabbed Li Weidong's clothes.
"You can't do it this way."
Li Weidong freed one hand, took her hand and wrapped it around his waist, and said in a serious tone, "The road is very bumpy, and you might fall if you're not careful. We're going so fast, if you fall, who knows how serious it could be!"
Zhou Xiaoye pressed her entire body against his back, her face instantly burning up, but she didn't let go. Instead, she hesitated and pressed her face against his back.
It was hot, so Li Weidong was only wearing a shirt. When she pressed her face against his, she felt her face burning even more, and her nostrils were filled with the scent of male hormones.
Li Weidong noticed her moving her lips, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up.
This silly girl has finally come to her senses.
He had accelerated earlier only to cause trouble, but now that he had achieved his goal, he slowed down.
July in summer is very hot and humid, and even the wind carries heat waves.
But Zhou Xiaoye held onto Li Weidong tightly, unwilling to let go, and even secretly hoped that this road would never end.
At the tender age of first love, she met the hero who saved her, and she had already secretly fallen for him.
However, firstly, she was naturally introverted and shy, and secondly, she didn't know Li Weidong's feelings. Therefore, even if she liked him, she didn't dare to say or do anything outrageous.
A scene like today, where I'm holding Li Weidong tightly, is something I never dared to dream of.
Now that we finally have the chance to get closer, we naturally cherish it very much.
Li Weidong felt much the same way.
Riding a motorcycle with my beloved girl as a passenger, this feeling is simply wonderful!
Unfortunately, even with the delay, the journey was only a few kilometers, and they soon arrived at the Zhou family's house.
When Zhou's parents heard the sound of the motorcycle, they both came out.
"Mom and Dad, I'm home."
Zhou Xiaoye climbed off the motorcycle.
Mr. Zhou rushed forward, his smile obsequious: "Young master, what brings you here? You didn't even give me a heads-up."
"Xiao Ye's mother, hurry up and kill a chicken, and have Xiao Jun go and get some pork. Also, get half a jin of wine. We'll have a good drink with our son-in-law at noon today!"
Zhou Jun also came out, circling Li Weidong's motorcycle and praising it highly.
After the engagement, this family racked their brains to figure out how to get close to Li Weidong so they could get rich with him.
In the past, it wasn't appropriate to take the initiative to approach him. Li Weidong's grandfather was hospitalized, and he was still planning when to visit him. Unexpectedly, the man came to his door on his own initiative!
We must seize this opportunity.
Li Weidong quickly stopped them, saying, "Uncle and Aunt, don't bother. I've already eaten before coming over. I came today to discuss something with you."
"What's up?"
Zhou's father was somewhat curious.
Li Weidong said seriously, "It's like this, I'm engaged to Xiaoye, and I said before that I would pay for her school fees. But my grandfather has been hospitalized recently!"
“Thanks to Ono for taking care of things at home, I was thinking that since we’re already engaged, why don’t we just let Ono move in with us? That would be more convenient.”
Mr. and Mrs. Zhou exchanged a glance and were both taken aback.
It's not uncommon for women to move into the groom's house after getting engaged but not yet married.
The problem is, now that Zhou Xiaoye is gone, who will do the housework?
Although they dared not treat Zhou Xiaoye too harshly because of her engagement to Li Weidong, they still asked her to do chores such as laundry and cooking.
After all, which family doesn't have these chores done for their daughter?
If Zhou Xiaoye moves away, wouldn't all the housework fall on Zhou's mother's shoulders?
Zhou's mother instinctively wanted to refuse.
Mr. Zhou, however, realized what was going on and quickly pulled her aside, saying, "Alright, alright, what you said makes sense, son-in-law. If Xiao Ye wants to move in, then let her move in!"
He then glared at Zhou's mother and said, "What are you still standing here for? Go and pack Xiaoye's things!"
Zhou's mother was somewhat displeased: "If Xiaoye leaves, who will do the housework?"
"Go ahead and do it!"
As Zhou's father spoke, he pulled her into the house and explained to Li Weidong, "Don't worry, son-in-law, we'll pack Xiaoye's things now, and you can take her there later."
"From now on, this girl is in your care. If she does anything wrong, you can discipline her as you please, don't worry about us!"
As they were talking, the couple had already gone inside.
Zhou Jun went to prepare tea.
Li Weidong looked at Zhou Xiaoye with some concern: "You're at home, but you still do all the housework?"
He thought that since they were engaged, the Zhou family would not dare to mistreat Zhou Xiaoye out of consideration for him!
Zhou Xiaoye noticed his distress and was moved. She explained, "It's just laundry and cooking. I wasn't asked to do anything else."
"These are all very easy, I'm used to doing them, it's nothing."
Compared to the past, when she had to do most of the work in the fields, besides washing clothes and cooking, and could only eat leftovers, things are much better now!
Now she not only doesn't have to work in the fields, but she can also eat her fill, and she's very content.
Li Weidong felt even more sorry for you: "Once you get to my house, you just need to focus on your studies and try to get into a good university. Then you can take control of your life."
A sixteen-year-old girl, still in high school, why would she need to do those kinds of work?
Zhou Xiaoye listened, and his expression darkened slightly.
When they got engaged, Li Weidong only said that the engagement was a temporary measure, and that if she got into a good university and became successful, she could break off the engagement if she didn't want to marry him.
Hearing Li Weidong say this now, they naturally concluded that Li Weidong didn't take the marriage agreement to heart.
but……
Zhou Xiaoye secretly made up her mind that no matter what the future held, at least she could stay by Wei Dong's side now, and that was enough!
The two had different thoughts, while Zhou's parents inside the house started arguing.
"She's gone, who's going to do the housework?"
Zhou's mother was not happy.
Since Zhou Xiaoye turned six, she has never washed a single piece of clothing or cooked a single meal; Zhou Xiaoye has taken care of everything.
Now that the person has passed away and no daughter-in-law has been married, doesn't she have to do all these things?
Zhou's father said angrily, "This engagement can be canceled at any time, but if Xiao Ye moves to the Li family's house, everyone in the surrounding villages will know about it. If he dares to cancel the engagement, he will be drowned in spittle."
"This is how to make the marriage a done deal. Why are you only focusing on housework?"
"Anyway, this is settled. Pack Xiaoye's things right away and let her go home with Li Weidong!"
Zhou's mother dared not say anything more and could only pack up.
Zhou Xiaoye had very few things; one bag was enough to fill it up.
Li Weidong picked up the bag himself and looked at Zhou Xiaoye: "Xiaoye, let's go home!"
