Ning Yuan suppressed a laugh.
It all started the day he declared in the county town that he wanted to be her husband.
She then understood where Rong Gongzi's previous hostility towards Ou Minglang, this big white goose, came from—what dog doesn't guard its food?
At that time, he treated her like meat on a plate, and felt that the big white goose next door wanted to carry her away.
Ning Yuan smiled and poked his waist curiously: "Tell me, when did you start to care about me?"
Back in the village and county, she could only admire Rong Zhaonan's good looks and the occasional glimpse of his body.
But that's just the kind of reaction one has when seeing an attractive member of the opposite sex, similar to the reactions of star-struck fans in later generations.
She also always remembered that Rong Zhaonan's personality was mostly aloof and composed beyond his years, but occasionally he would be abnormal—abnormal or awkward.
For example, when he used a machete to kill wild animals in the mountains, his fighting ability was unlike that of a normal person.
For example, when we occasionally argue, the way he picks her up, spins her around in circles, and throws persimmons at her face is not normal.
I've never seen him flirt with her or try to seduce her.
You should know that back in high school, she also received love letters from boys in her class—inviting her to finish the college entrance exam together and build a great country together.
This person never even said "I like you" back then, let alone wrote love letters.
Why did I suddenly want to sleep with her in the middle of the night and treat her like a real husband?
This question instantly silenced Rong Zhaonan, and a blush crept up his aloof and handsome face from his neck to his ears.
Ning Yuan was utterly astonished – wow, what's with this guy's shyness?!
She just asked a normal question!
Rong Zhaonan pinched the finger she was poking at herself, held her hand in his palm, turned his face away, and coughed lightly: "I don't know either."
He genuinely didn't know; it was just a matter of monitoring a strange little spy from the beginning.
After monitoring and probing her repeatedly for a whole year, I became curious—she was definitely not a spy, nor did she seem like a normal person; I wondered what kind of person she was.
If even special agencies and connections couldn't find the reason for her abnormality, it basically means that she is strange, but not harmful to society.
But once he confirmed that her strangeness posed no physical danger, other thoughts began to cross his mind...
Marx, in his prime, always championed materialism.
But from the age of one, his mother found him a Taoist master who had fled abroad during the war, and he practiced True Qi martial arts, becoming a Taoist disciple.
Having read too many Taoist classics and miscellaneous books on 'feudal superstition' in his early years, he only began to study Marxist philosophy after returning to China and became a materialist.
When faced with situations that cannot be explained by physics, Rong Zhaonan always couldn't help but think of the ancient Chinese classics "Zhiguai" and "XX Zhai" that he read when he was a child. In these stories, the protagonists were always attracted to mountain spirits and fox demons.
He's never saved a rabbit, but he's slaughtered quite a few.
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any rabbit spirit to repay the kindness, save him from being sent down to the thatched hut and cowshed, and even get a marriage certificate with him.
Based on how many rabbits he ate while on his mission, if there really was a rabbit spirit, killing him would be the best course of action.
In the middle of the night, while she was fast asleep, he touched her nose and chest to see if she was breathing and had a heartbeat.
Strange thoughts made him increasingly attached to her, and once he started, he couldn't stop.
He didn't understand the specifics, but he had the idea of privatizing her.
If there are unidentified creatures that you can't figure out, then just keep them under your own control and treat them like your real wife.
According to those feudal and superstitious books, the unknown creatures usually wear human skin, retain the true yang energy of a man, and once they have offspring, they will truly become women and remain there, never disappearing.
He was unwilling to confront his own strange, feudal, and 'evil thoughts,' and only told himself that he had to take responsibility.
Who cares what she is, she's a female anyway, and she kissed me!
These days, a decent man born under the red flag and raised in the spring breeze has to be responsible for women!
But this curly-haired rabbit spirit's thoughts are out of step with the times, and her cold-heartedness is infuriating.
That's why I had so many unpleasant experiences with this curly-haired rabbit for half a year.
Later I realized, oh, that idea of owning the curly-haired rabbit was because I liked it...
In the end, it was he who was unwilling to let go and give in first, and he still wanted to grab her back.
Since curly-haired rabbits pose no threat to society, he would simply listen to any strange ideas or statements that came up, write them down, but would not pursue them further.
Anyway, questioning and investigating yielded no results. After being together for a long time, she will eventually tell the truth.
Fortunately, she wasn't truly indifferent to him; she was captivated by his good looks and fell in love with him.
What's particularly bad is that women who are with him will encounter many dangers.
He also took advantage of their intimacy to explore her thoroughly. The strange rabbit spirit who cried her heart out at the slightest pressure was ultimately just a quirky little devil!
But he is just a mortal body, capable of dying and getting hurt!
It's probably because of the Red Flag Suppression—after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was forbidden for beings to become spirits!
Of course, Rong Da Lao's extremely absurd and extreme "feudal superstition" dark thoughts, which are detached from reason, cannot be told to Ning Yuan.
He simply grabbed Ning Yuan's finger that was poking him and said in a low voice with a cold expression, "I've told you many times, don't poke a man's waist for no reason, it's not right."
Ning Yuan felt a tickle in her heart from his awkward appearance. She tiptoed, tilted her head back, and pressed her chin against his, asking with a smile, "Oh, I've only ever heard of not touching a man's head or a woman's waist. So where can I poke you?"
The two of them huddled in the woods behind the Fudan University playground. Actually, every so often, other young couples would be whispering to each other around them.
Although there are often security guards patrolling here in red armbands, it's still better than being easily spotted on the streets without any trees to provide cover.
Ning Yuan knew he was leaving, so she played a particularly malicious prank.
Sure enough, the slender body she was clinging to stiffened instantly, and the hand gripping her waist tightened.
"Ning Yuan!" he groaned softly, pressing her soft body tightly against his.
Ning Yuan immediately sensed that he had drawn his gun.
She blushed and hugged his neck without moving.
"I've almost finished reading the textbook... I'll wait for you in Guangzhou once I've figured it out." He said gently, his voice low and restrained.
Ning Yuan was momentarily at a loss for how to react. He spoke in a gentle yet cold voice, saying something like, "I've already cleaned my gun and am waiting in Guangzhou to kill you."
After a while, she coughed lightly, her face flushed, and said, "Alright, you keep talking big all day long, I don't even know if you have time for that."
Rong Zhaonan didn't say anything, but quietly held her: "The security situation is not good now. Be careful when you go to Guangzhou."
Ning Yuan said softly, "You must also be very careful."
She stopped provoking him, and the two of them stayed in each other's arms for a long time.
It wasn't until Rong Zhaonan heard Chen Chen coughing outside the woods that he realized what was happening.
Rong Zhaonan and Ning Yuan emerged from the grove one after the other.
Chen Chen glanced at Rong Zhaonan's less-than-pleasant expression, giving him a cold look, then quickly turned and ran off: "I'll go get the car and pick up the captain to go to the airport."
Chen Chen ran away like he was being chased by a ghost. Ning Yuan wanted to laugh, but she also wanted to poke Rong Zhaonan's waist.
But he held back in the end. His narrow waist and broad shoulders looked great together, but they were also very sensitive. Oh well.
Rong Zhaonan ruffled her hair with a hint of helplessness: "You're just bullying me."
As they were talking, they suddenly heard Ou Minglang's voice: "Xiao Ning?"
Ning Yuan was taken aback and looked at the distance where Ou Minglang, Yan Yangyang, and Jin Bianjiang were walking over together.
She then noticed that the path they had absentmindedly taken earlier led directly to the back door of the dormitory building.
Yan Yangyang and Jin Bianjiang looked fine, but Ou Minglang's expression was not so good. His brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked coldly at Rong Zhaonan.
A cold smile flashed across Rong Zhaonan's refined and aloof brows. He suddenly reached out and hugged Ning Yuan, saying, "I'm leaving now."
