Not to mention Shi Longlong's disappointment at missing the opportunity and his subsequent departure, Li Xiangdong, while exchanging pleasantries with Guo Daming of the joint defense team, kept his eyes fixed on Shi Longlong.
Guo Daming was a tall, burly man, standing at least 1.8 meters tall, with bronze skin and large, clear eyes that gave him an honest yet shrewd appearance.
Like Wang Zhenbo's family, the Guo family was a small, insignificant household in Lijiapo, without the protection of a large family. Guo Daming knew from a young age that he had to get along well with his neighbors.
"Xiangdong, went to pick up your sister from get off work?"
Guo Daming spoke warmly and kindly, but he only looked at Li Xiangdong, his eyes involuntarily glancing at Li Zhen. Under the moonlight, a slight blush appeared on his bronze face.
Li Xiangdong, who always had sharp eyesight, sensed something was wrong from Guo Daming's expression.
Huh?
Why is Guo Daming blushing when he looks at himself?
wrong!
It's because I saw Fourth Sister blushing!
Does Guo Daming have feelings for his fourth sister?
I've never heard of this in my past life!
Li Xiangdong looked at his fourth sister. She was normal, unlike Guo Daming who was both shy and awkward.
It wouldn't be impossible for Fourth Sister to marry Guo Daming. Guo Daming may not have been extremely wealthy in his previous life, but he was among the first batch of people to start businesses during the reform and opening up period, and he lived a very prosperous life afterward.
Li Xiangdong wasn't after Guo Daming's money; it was mainly because of Guo's good character.
In his previous life, Guo Daming bought an apartment building when everyone else was living in brick houses. He married his wife when he was struggling financially, and she never had any children. Many people advised him to divorce her and remarry, and some even introduced him to seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls, but Guo Daming refused them all. He shut up the advice with one sentence: "A wife who has shared hardship should not be abandoned."
Guo Daming's wife was deeply moved and urged him, "Daming, go have a baby outside, bring the baby back and I'll raise it. I promise to treat your child as my own. I'll be so sorry if I can't have children for you in this life!"
Guo Daming wiped away his wife's tears and comforted her, saying, "If I'm destined to have children, we'll have them sooner or later. If I'm not, why bother? I'll just stay with you and live my life!"
In Li Xiangdong's opinion, Guo Daming is indeed a universally acknowledged good man.
But now is not the time to think about these things. The most important thing now is to break off the engagement between Fourth Sister and Shi Longlong.
As for Guo Daming, although he was a very good person in his past life, we still need to examine him carefully in this life.
Li Xiangdong couldn't help but feel the urge to marry off his beloved daughter.
"Brother Daming, could you help me take my fourth sister to her doorstep? I need to hurry up and go find Guoqing and the others to play."
Seeing that Shi Longlong had gone a little further away, Li Xiangdong was afraid that he wouldn't be able to find him in a while, so he quickly asked Guo Daming to escort his fourth sister home, and then made an excuse to leave.
"Head east, it's late at night, don't go near water, go home early."
Li Zhen instructed Li Xiangdong, then turned to Guo Daming and said, "Brother Daming, you don't need to see us off anymore, we're already in the village."
"I was just heading to the west end of the village anyway, let's go since it's on the way!"
Guo Daming's face turned even redder in the darkness, but Li Zhen didn't notice.
Li Xiangdong darted out in a few steps and quietly followed Shi Longlong.
It's so good to be young!
At this time, Li Xiangdong was still tall and thin, agile, and capable of climbing trees, going down into rivers, and doing somersaults.
Ahead, Shi Longlong walked with a limp, but quite quickly; in the moonlight, his shadow grew longer and shorter with each passing moment.
Walking along the road between the brick kiln and Lijiapo, there were tall bramble bushes on both sides, one after another. There was no one on the road, and it was quiet. The moon cast the shadow of Shi Longlong and the shadow of the bramble bushes together.
"Ah~ Ah~"
Suddenly, a strange sound, like a deep voice being strained and thinned, came from nearby. Shi Longlong jumped in fright. What was that sound? It sounded like a cat in heat, which was quite frightening!
"Ah~ Ah~ Ah"
Another sound, even clearer than before, came, and Shi Longlong was so frightened that he walked even faster.
This...this can't be a ghost story, can it?
It's late at night, and nobody's working anymore. Besides, there are no wheat fields nearby, so even if someone wanted to steal green wheat kernels, they wouldn't make such a loud noise.
There are brambles by the roadside, and behind the brambles is a big ditch. Could it be that someone is having an affair in the bramble bushes?
When Shi Longlong thought of this possibility, his heart suddenly warmed. He had been a bachelor for over thirty years and often went to the big pit to peep at young women and wives bathing. Today, he had followed Li Zhen all day with unspeakable evil thoughts, but returned empty-handed. When he heard the unspeakable sounds, he immediately decided to go and see which pair of lovers couldn't resist having sex by the roadside.
Li Xiangdong saw Shi Longlong quicken his pace, then immediately called out twice in a high-pitched voice. Sure enough, Shi Longlong stopped and tiptoed towards him.
Li Xiangdong could have simply knocked Shi Longlong's head out of the way, covered his head with a stick, and Shi Longlong would have recognized him even if he had beaten him to death.
However, Li Xiangdong, who had lived a second life, had seen the omnipresent surveillance system and the police who solved cases quickly in his future life. Moreover, as the saying goes, there are no coincidences in life!
What is a low-probability event for many people is 100% certain when it happens to one person!
Li Xiangdong couldn't bear the slightest risk of being seen beating Shi Longlong. If Shi Longlong's family found out that he was the one who beat Shi Longlong, his fourth sister would probably have to get married even if she didn't want to.
So he chose a method that disgusted him but was effective for Shi Longlong.
Shi Longlong was so excited that his hands were sweating. He bent over and wandered around in the crisscrossing thicket of brambles, his eyes wide open, scanning the surroundings by the moonlight. But he did not see the scene of men and women making love that he had imagined.
