In her letter, Wu Wenwen said that after returning home, her parents always arranged blind dates for her. Most of them were clearly only interested in her status as a college student, thinking that marrying her would be a matter of prestige.
How could such a marriage last? She didn't want it. At first, her parents would try to persuade her with kind words, but gradually, they attacked her with the most vicious language.
She then realized that at her age, she was already a burden on her family, and she had noticed her family's attitude was not right when she went home for the Chinese New Year.
But at that time, I was so immersed in the joy of going home that I didn't notice.
Her parents said that she was an old maid, and it was good enough if someone wanted her. If she didn't find someone soon, they would lose everything.
Ye Zhiyu sighed. She longed to go home, but once home, she became a burden in her parents' eyes.
Finally, he asked about Ye Zhiyu's recent situation and said he hoped to give her some advice.
I picked up my pen to reply.
She hoped that Sister Wu could stay true to herself. Marriage has two sides; once you make a mistake, it's your grave. Those men who are interested in her because she's a college student aren't necessarily bad.
If she wants to get married right away, she shouldn't resist the men she's considering.
Because people are always driven by self-interest, when women get married, they value a man's conditions, character, and sense of responsibility.
It's understandable that a man would want a woman with good financial standing to marry; that's perfectly reasonable.
The key is to see beyond the surface and understand the essence. Don't assume that someone is approaching you because of something you do, or that they have ulterior motives and aren't after you.
You should know that getting into university is a testament to your ability. If they choose you because of your ability, you should be happy, because you have that advantage, right?
If she doesn't want to get married, Ye Zhiyu will certainly support her, because she should be in control of her own life.
The next letter was from Wang Qing, who had already married her fiancé who was waiting for her to return, and the young couple were very happy.
Zhou Xue wrote about her daily life, and you can tell she was very excited.
Liu Shengnan's letter greatly surprised Ye Zhiyu.
She was actually going to marry Li Yuzhe. She said she didn't know how things had turned out this way. When they left the educated youth settlement and went home, she saw Li Yuzhe on the train.
She asked at the time, and Li Yuzhe said it was on the way, so she didn't think much of it.
Then... well, Li Yuzhe was in the same school as her, and he was always looking for her. At first, she was annoyed and thought that the two of them weren't that close.
Li Yuzhe then played the victim, saying that he knew her and that he wanted to evoke her sympathy.
She eventually got used to it, but then one day he didn't come looking for her.
She felt a little empty and worried that something might have happened to him.
I couldn't help but go looking for someone.
When she stood downstairs at the boys' dormitory, she regretted it and wanted to leave.
Then she saw him walking side by side with a girl. She got inexplicably angry, glared at him, and turned away.
She was worried he'd get into trouble, but it turns out he was just chasing girls.
Because of this incident, Li Yuzhe realized that she had feelings for him, confessed his feelings, and explained that she was his cousin who had come here on business and he hadn't had time to tell her.
Anyway, they got together, and then Li Yuzhe, as if afraid she would change her mind, quickly had his family arrange the engagement, and the wedding date was also chosen.
I sent Ye Zhiyu wedding candy in advance.
Finally, Liu Shengnan awkwardly added that since she had agreed, she wouldn't regret it. Why the rush? She wanted to stay single for a few more days.
This was so sweet it was almost sickening; Ye Zhiyu never imagined she'd be eating someone else's dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).
He said to Lu Chen, "These two sworn enemies have finally come together. Liu Shengnan is so oblivious, so Li Yuzhe naturally has to cut the Gordian knot quickly."
She thought of everything on a whim, so that Li Yuzhe wouldn't regret it if he ever did, even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance.
Lu Chen pulled her into his arms from behind, "That's what I was thinking too, I was afraid you'd run away."
...
They were talking about Liu Shengnan and Li Yuzhe buying wedding supplies.
Li Yuzhe bought a small, cozy two-bedroom apartment in her city.
"This looks nice, let's buy it and put it in the house."
Liu Shengnan pointed to a potted plant, which was a kalanchoe.
Li Yuzhe was willing to do his best to fulfill her wishes, no matter how small.
"Okay, I don't really have many plants at home. How much, boss?"
"5 cents."
It was already evening when the two returned home with bags and packages. Liu Shengnan began searching with great interest, carrying the kalanchoe around the house, wondering where to put it.
Li Yuzhe leaned against the door frame, gazing at her with doting affection.
"Hey, Li Yuzhe, is it okay to put it here?"
Liu Shengnan put it away by herself, then turned to ask, only to find Li Yuzhe looking at her like that.
She felt a little uncomfortable and retorted habitually, "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on your face?"
Even though the two are getting married, she still isn't used to it.
Li Yuzhe shook his head helplessly and walked closer to her. Liu Shengnan wanted to back away, but unfortunately there was a table behind her.
"Shengnan, we're getting married soon. I'm looking at my wife with deep affection. I don't think anyone will object."
Liu Shengnan's eyes darted around, clearly indicating she had no experience with this situation.
Or perhaps it's because this is the first time someone has treated her like this, liked her like this, and she's finding it hard to accept.
"You can watch if you want, I'm leaving."
She reached out and pushed him away, intending to leave, but she had to ask Li Yuzhe for his permission first.
He stretched out his long arm and pulled her into his embrace, dragging her by the waist.
Liu Shengnan's mind went blank. She panicked and said, "What are you doing? Let me tell you, don't think that just because we're getting married you can do whatever you want. Be careful, or I'll hit you!"
She struggled with all her might; she was quite strong, but still far weaker than a man.
The two were very close, her small mouth chattering incessantly, while Li Yuzhe's dark eyes watched her every move.
He lowered his head and shut the mouth that kept saying things he didn't want to hear.
Liu Shengnan's eyes widened, and she instinctively struggled, repeatedly patting his chest and shoving him.
It was no use; his kisses deepened, lingering between his lips, unable to find their mark.
He bit her, and Liu Shengnan cried out in pain. He seized the opportunity to break in, taking her breath and everything she had.
"Okay, let go..."
Taking advantage of a moment to catch her breath, Liu Shengnan tried to speak, but was silenced again.
Gradually, the patting stopped, and instead she tightly gripped his shirt, her eyes slowly closing as she became absorbed in the moment.
Li Yuzhe naturally sensed it too, and a laugh escaped his throat.
Liu Shengnan opened her eyes, a rare shyness on her face. Seeing him smile, she said angrily, "What are you laughing at?"
The voice was soft and sweet, and she covered her mouth in fright. What was going on? Was that her voice?
So cloying.
Before she could finish her thought, a feeling of weightlessness washed over her.
She let out a soft "ah" and instinctively clung to Li Yuzhe's shoulder.
She was quickly placed on the bed, and the man followed closely behind.
Their eyes met, and Li Yuzhe's gaze softened. "Shengnan..."
Liu Shengnan turned her head away, not daring to look at him.
