Li Weidong was startled by Shen Xiaoyan's sudden entrance and quickly grabbed a piece of clothing to cover himself.
Shen Xiaoyan walked to the bedside, placed the millet porridge on the bedside table, and teased, "Oh, now you know how to be ashamed? Why weren't you ashamed last night?"
"Last night? What did I do last night?"
"You tell me, you really gave me a hard time..."
"ah?"
Li Weidong thought it was that matter and turned pale with fright.
"You threw up three times last night, and you were so heavy. Do you know how much effort it took to get you back?"
Li Weidong and Zhang Bin both drank quite a lot last night.
She had the cook, Lao Zhang, help Zhang Bin up to the manager's office on the second floor, while she took Li Weidong home.
"Hey Xiaoyan, can you please stop pausing when you talk? You scared me to death!" After learning the truth, Li Weidong breathed a long sigh of relief.
How did I scare you?
Shen Xiaoyan did not understand what Li Weidong meant.
But she quickly realized what she meant and burst out laughing.
He laughed so hard he almost fell over, his body shaking with laughter: "You little rascal, you really know how to think of such good things."
She was wearing a V-neck dress today, with the neckline slightly low.
Her smile revealed a large expanse of white skin, giving Li Weidong a feast for the eyes.
After noticing where Li Weidong was looking, Shen Xiaoyan glared at him.
"What are you looking at?!"
Li Weidong chuckled and explained, "Sister Xiaoyan, you took off my clothes yesterday, so you must have seen me naked, right? If I look at you now, you won't lose out, will you?"
"Oh, is that how the accounts are calculated?" Shen Xiaoyan giggled. "Since you weren't wearing any clothes yesterday, does that mean I have to take them off for you to see?"
As she spoke, she walked up to Li Weidong and made a gesture as if to take off her clothes.
Li Weidong was startled and quickly pressed down on her arm.
"Sis, I was just kidding."
He never imagined that Shen Xiaoyan would actually do it for real.
In the end, Li Weidong was only 23 in this life, still a young lad.
But Shen Xiaoyan was over thirty and a widow.
When people really start acting like scoundrels, it's hard to say who will benefit from whom.
Seeing that Li Weidong had behaved himself, Shen Xiaoyan stopped teasing him and started talking about serious matters.
"By the way, Weidong, Zhang Bin went home early this morning, saying he needed to discuss it with his family again and not be too impulsive."
"Yes, let him go back. He'll definitely come back."
In his previous life, Zhang Bin went into business in 1994.
This clearly shows that, deep down, he is a restless person.
"By the way, I just overheard a teacher who came to buy steamed buns saying that the high school entrance exam results will be released soon. Is your sister taking the high school entrance exam this year?"
"The results are out today?" Li Weidong was stunned.
I've been so busy these past few days that I didn't even know about this.
"How can you, as the older brother, not even know this..."
"What time is it now?"
It's eleven o'clock.
"Then I have to go back right away."
Li Weidong hurriedly put on his clothes and ran outside.
...
When Li Weidong got home, it was already past midnight.
In the courtyard, Zhao Xiulian was wearing an apron and cooking by the stove.
"Mom, I heard Lili got her high school entrance exam results today? How did she do?" Li Weidong asked anxiously.
Although in her previous life, her younger sister easily got into the top high school.
But who knows if things might change?
Until the boots hit the ground, he remained on edge.
“I don’t know. Lili did come back, but she’s been sullen ever since. She won’t answer when I ask her anything,” Zhao Xiulian said.
Didn't do well on the test?
Li Weidong's first reaction was that he hadn't done well on the exam.
"Mom, it's okay. She probably didn't do well on the exam. I'll go and comfort her."
With that, Li Weidong strode into Li Xiaoli's room on the west side.
Inside the room, Li Xiaoli sat face down on a stool, hugging the backrest with both hands, staring blankly into space...
Li Weidong reached out and patted the back of her head, saying with a smile, "It's okay. Victory and defeat are common in war. If we can't get into No. 1 High School, we can go to No. 2 High School. When we get to high school, we can study hard and still get into university."
After saying this, Li Weidong took out two cassette tapes from his pocket.
He waved it in front of her as if showing off: "Ta-da! Look what this is! Andy Lau! Didn't you say you wanted to hear his songs? I specially stole it from your sister Xiaoyan."
However, even with Andy Lau's intervention, Li Xiaoli remained expressionless and didn't even glance at him.
This made Li Weidong even more puzzled. Just how badly did she do on the exam that she was in such a bad mood?
After patting her head again, Li Weidong comforted her, "It's okay, Lili. Even if you don't get into high school, it's alright. I'm rich, I can support you for the rest of your life."
However, Li Xiaoli pushed his hand away, saying, "You're the one who won't get into high school. My grades are great."
"How many points did you get?"
"583!" Li Xiaoli said angrily.
"Damn, that's a great score!" Li Weidong couldn't help but swear. "You did so well, why aren't you happy?"
"I'm just unhappy, brother. How can there be such heartless parents in this world?" Li Xiaoli said, crying.
"You were talking so well, why are you crying now?" Li Weidong reached out to wipe his sister's tears.
But Li Xiaoli cried even harder.
“Brother, Xiaoye didn’t go to school today. I went to her house to look for her and found out that her parents won’t let her go to school anymore. They said that it’s useless for girls to go to school and that they want her to be married off to Wang Mazi next door.”
"What?"
Li Weidong was completely stunned.
He remembered that in his previous life, Zhou Xiaoye went to arrange a marriage after the college entrance examination.
Unexpectedly, she encountered this same trouble during the high school entrance exam.
“Brother, how can there be such heartless parents in this world? Xiaoye did better than me in her exams, but her parents won’t let her go to school. They’ve locked her in the house and won’t let her go anywhere.”
How is she now?
"I don't know. I heard from others that she has been on a hunger strike for more than a day. I'm really worried that something might happen to her. She's my best friend." Li Xiaoli became more and more upset as she spoke, and her crying became more and more intense.
Li Weidong's mind was also in turmoil.
He roughly understood that in his previous life, Zhou Xiaoye must have forced his parents to agree to let him finish high school by going on a hunger strike.
However, even though she understood that she could save herself.
But Li Weidong still didn't want to stand idly by...
He had to save her!
Save her from dire straits!
Save her from this family!
In my past life, I was a deserter in love.
Now that things have happened again in this life, he will no longer run away.
Thinking of this, Li Weidong's gaze hardened, and he patted Li Xiaoli on the back of the head, saying, "Don't cry, I can help her."
Li Xiaoli stopped crying, stared wide-eyed at Li Weidong, and asked in confusion, "How are you going to help?"
