But what?
Zhou Xiaoye suddenly looked up, feeling uneasy.
Li Weidong said in a serious tone, "But you're too thin. That's not good. You should eat more and gain some weight."
Otherwise, given this girl's personality, she wouldn't dare to utter a word even if she suffered grievances at home, and it's hard to guarantee that the Zhou family wouldn't outwardly comply but inwardly defy her.
I have to give her a few pointers so she can learn to think more about herself in the future.
Zhou Xiaoye paused for a moment, then nodded emphatically: "I will eat properly!"
Even if I can't grow up to be like Liu Xiaohong, I should at least gain some weight and be better than I am now!
Li Weidong smiled with satisfaction and was about to leave when he remembered something else: "By the way, what size shoes do you wear?"
Zhou Xiaohong immediately remembered the shoes she wore the day she delivered the watermelon, the ones where her toes were almost sticking out, and she felt both shy and embarrassed.
She quickly shook her head and said, "No need to buy me new shoes. My mom already bought me a pair today because of our engagement!"
Li Weidong's gaze fell on her feet.
The shoes were indeed new, but it was obvious at a glance that they were the kind you could just buy at a street stall; the quality was poor and they were likely to make your feet smell.
Moreover, these shoes are clearly several sizes too big, obviously indicating that the owner plans to continue wearing them next year when their feet have grown longer.
But shoes are different from clothes. Shoes that don't fit properly are uncomfortable to begin with, and these are so big, how are you supposed to wear them?
He frowned: "Just tell me what I'm asking. I'm your man, and you don't listen to me anymore, do you?"
When Zhou Xiaoye heard the words "your man," her ears turned bright red, but she still firmly shook her head: "I already said I don't need it, I have shoes to wear."
"If you mend the old shoes, they can still be worn!"
She became more and more courageous as she spoke, looking up at Li Weidong: "Brother Weidong, you've already spent so much money on our engagement, and you even bought me a new dress. I'm so happy."
"As for the rest, there's really no need to spend any more money. Aren't you going to start a company? There are plenty of other things that will cost you money. There's no need to waste money on me."
A surge of emotion welled up in Li Weidong's heart.
This girl, even though she's suffering so much herself, still thinks of him in every way.
He sighed, but couldn't resist teasing her, pinching her cheek and saying, "Little girl, you're already managing the household before you're even married in, aren't you?"
Zhou Xiaoye was caught off guard by his sudden attack. The courage he had mustered up vanished in an instant, and he turned as red as a boiled shrimp.
Li Weidong laughed loudly: "Alright, tell me your shoe size, and I'll buy you new shoes. Throw away all those worn-out, tattered, and ill-fitting ones."
"I've already said, from now on you just need to focus on your studies, I'll take care of everything else."
He wronged her in his past life, and in this life, he must make up for those regrets no matter what!
Zhou Xiaoye was increasingly moved, but also increasingly stubborn, refusing to say anything.
Helpless, Li Weidong simply squatted down and grabbed Zhou Xiaoye's leg.
"Brother Weidong, what are you doing!"
Before Zhou Xiaoye could finish speaking, her shoes had already been taken off.
She had a small frame and her feet were also small and delicate, almost the same length as Li Weidong's palm.
Li Weidong pinched her foot and gestured, and when he saw the blood blisters on the sole of her foot that had not yet healed, he couldn't help but frown.
This girl has suffered so much!
Zhou Xiaoye was so ashamed that she couldn't lift her head. She wanted to struggle but couldn't break free, so she could only cover her face with her hands.
This is so embarrassing!
Li Weidong took a rough measurement, then stood up and said, "I'll go out first. I'll buy the shoes and bring them to you later. You should rest!"
If we don't leave soon, this silly girl might faint from embarrassment.
Zhou Xiaoye didn't dare to put his hand down until he heard the door close.
The warmth on his face hadn't subsided, and his feet still seemed to carry Li Weidong's body heat.
Fortunately, she is now all alone in the room.
Zhou Xiaoye breathed a sigh of relief, her gaze unconsciously falling on the dress on the bed.
What girl doesn't love to look beautiful?
She couldn't resist getting up, locking the door, changing into her dress, and going to the mirror to examine herself.
The mirror was small and somewhat dim, so the view wasn't very clear.
But she was overjoyed. Barefoot, she lifted her skirt and twirled around, feeling as light as if she were floating on a cloud.
This is the dress that Brother Weidong bought for her!
Zhou Xiaoye looked at herself in the mirror again and again, and finally reluctantly took off the skirt and carefully put it back in the bag.
She covered her chest with her skirt, and her previously restless heart finally settled down.
They're engaged!
From now on, I'll be Brother Weidong's wife...
Zhou Xiaoye felt somewhat lost.
Although Li Weidong said that the two of them would still get along as before, their statuses were no longer the same.
Li Weidong, who was just her good friend's older brother before, later became her fiancé...
The more Zhou Xiaoye thought about it, the hotter her face felt, but deep down, a sense of anticipation quietly arose in her heart.
Being Wei Dong's wife doesn't seem so bad, does it?
A bright smile bloomed on her face.
...
After leaving Zhou Xiaoye's room, Li Weidong had another meal with Ji Dahai and the others.
After the banquet ended, he asked Ji Dahai to take Shen Xiaoyan and the others back to the city first.
"And what about you?"
Shen Xiaoyan asked with a suggestive look, "Are you going to keep your little bride company?"
The others laughed too.
Li Weidong was speechless: "Sister Xiaoyan, in your heart, can't I have anything else going on?"
Then he looked at Xing Guodong and said, "Brother Xing, could you and your men stay behind later and do me a favor?"
