Compared to Lin Shuyue's conservative and reserved nature, Zhang Yake was far too bold. Even just coming over for a meal, she managed to squeeze something out of Ye Yun.
"You're too bold. This is your own home. If someone finds out, you're finished," Ye Yun said, stroking her hair.
Zhang Ya looked up at him and smiled slightly, saying, "Don't worry, the doors and windows are all closed, no one will find out. Besides, they'll feel awkward and basically won't come upstairs."
"Then you can't..." Before he could finish speaking, the other person continued.
Just as the two were having a great time, they heard footsteps outside.
Ye Yun immediately tensed up and patted Zhang Ya, reminding her, "Someone's coming."
Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door.
When Zhang Ya opened the door, she saw Lin Shuyue. Lin Shuyue looked at Zhang Ya, whose face was flushed, and Ye Yun, who was lying on the bed with his back to her.
"What's wrong, Shuyue?" Zhang Ya asked calmly.
"Dinner is ready. You and Xiaoyun, come down and eat!"
"Okay, I'll go downstairs after Xiaoyun finishes helping me," Zhang Ya said.
"Okay, I'll go downstairs now." After saying that, Lin Shuyue turned around and went downstairs.
Watching her departing figure, Zhang Ya breathed a sigh of relief, closed the door, and turned back to stand in front of Ye Yun.
"Let's go down quickly!" Ye Yun said, standing up.
Zhang Ya pressed him down and said, "No rush, let's talk about it after we're done."
As she spoke, she squatted down again.
…………
As night fell, the lights in the courtyard came on, and Ye Yun and the others sat around the table, eating and drinking while chatting and laughing.
"Yunzi, come, let me toast you." The village chief raised his wine cup and handed it to Ye Yun.
"Uncle, you're too kind. I should be the one toasting you," Ye Yun quickly raised his glass.
"No, it's just that I respect you. From now on, you'll be the top leader of our village. We're all waiting for you to lead our village to prosperity!" the village chief said.
Ye Yun quickly shook his head and said, "No way, you'll always be the top leader. I'm just the second-in-command at most. Besides, Brother Qiang's work will definitely be in the town or county from now on. I definitely can't manage the village. I'll have to rely on you, the village chief!"
Hearing this, the village chief smiled, but quickly put on a serious face and said, "No matter what, you are the future of our village. You have to work hard, everyone is counting on you!"
"Oh dear, what are you saying..."
After chatting with the village chief for a few minutes, Ye Yun sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and placed a piece of meat into Lin Shuyue's bowl.
"Sister Shuyue, eat more meat!"
"Thank you." Lin Shuyue blushed as she felt shown such concern in front of others.
"Look, Yunzi really feels sorry for Shuyue!" said the village chief's wife.
"Of course I feel sorry for her, she's my sister Shuyue!" Ye Yun said.
“I feel you two are a good match, why don’t you just get together?” Liang Lu suggested.
"Don't talk nonsense, how can you say that? I'm his Sister Shuyue," Lin Shuyue said shyly.
“Why not? What era are we living in? We should look forward,” the village chief said.
"Yeah, you two are really a perfect match. If you walked down the street and people didn't know you, they'd definitely think you were a couple. You should just get together," Zhang Ya teased, biting her chopsticks lightly.
"Ya'er, why are you teasing me too?" Lin Shuyue said coquettishly.
“I’m not kidding you, I’m serious. You’ve only been married to Ye Kang for half a year, and it was an arranged marriage, so there wasn’t much affection between you. Ye Kang is gone, and you’re still young. There’s no need for you to become a widow. It’s the 21st century, so think more positively. Ye Yun is young, handsome, and capable. He only stayed for you. Do you think it’s appropriate for you not to be with him?”
Lin Shuyue undoubtedly agreed with Zhang Ya's words, but she certainly couldn't admit it so easily. Blushing, she said, "I know that, so I'm also trying to find a way to repay Xiaoyun. Of course, I want to be good to him too."
"Repayment? How do you expect me to repay you? In ancient times, the way to repay someone was to offer yourself to them. Ye Yun stayed in the village for you. How can you repay such a sacrifice? If I were you, I would be willing to be your mistress, let alone your wife!" Zhang Ya said, picking up her wine glass and taking a sip. Her slightly flushed cheeks gave her a charming and alluring look.
Ye Yun could tell that she was somewhat drunk. This wasn't just directed at Lin Shuyue, but also at the village chief and the others, thus revealing her inner dissatisfaction.
The village chief and his wife were slightly embarrassed, but they didn't dare to say anything, after all, their son was just that kind of good-for-nothing.
At home, the elderly couple were too embarrassed to say anything to Zhang Ya, since she had a very strong personality.
Ye Yun placed her hand on Zhang Ya's thigh, intentionally trying to distract her, and comforted her, "Eat your food and don't talk about these things."
Zhang Ya snorted, grabbed Ye Yun's hand and brought it closer, looking at Ye Yun with a playful expression, and asked, "Tell me about yourself, you're already twenty-three, haven't you thought about finding a girlfriend?"
To prevent her from making too much of a fuss, Ye Yun obediently soothed her, saying, "Making money is the priority right now. We can talk about our girlfriends later!"
"Tsk tsk, that's a real pity. Quite a few girls in our school like you. How about Liang Lu introduces you to a couple?" Zhang Ya said, looking at Liang Lu.
Liang Lu was quite enthusiastic, patting his chest and saying, "No problem, there are plenty of beautiful girls at our school. With Brother Yun's looks and talent, winning over the school beauty is a piece of cake. But..."
"What's wrong?"
"Could you go easy on my girlfriend?" Liang Lu asked awkwardly.
Ye Yun chuckled and said, "Look at what you're saying. Do you think I, your brother Yun, am the kind of person who would poach someone's partner?"
"Of course I believe you, Brother Yun. I'm worried about her. If she sees you, she'll definitely pursue you. I hope you can reject her then, okay?"
Ye Yun: ? ? ? ?
What exactly is this? A simp, or a backup option? It feels like a bit of both, but also like neither.
After the meal, it was almost 9 o'clock. We ate from 7 o'clock to 9 o'clock, which was two hours.
"Village chief, we'll head back now."
"Okay, drive carefully."
"Okay!"
Stepping out of the gate, Ye Yun and Lin Shuyue walked together on their way home.
Night had fallen, and the village was almost completely dark, but the moonlight was enough to make out the road.
Along the way, Ye Yun held Lin Shuyue's hand and gently stroked it.
"That Liang Lu is really something else. He's using me as a wingman like he's picking up girls. He really knows how to play the game!"
"Wingman? What is a wingman?"
"Uh... similar to a matchmaker, helping to match people up."
"Matched together? Do you even count? You didn't even show up in person."
"I didn't show up in person, but he used my name, so it's practically the same as me being his wingman," Ye Yun said.
Lin Shuyue chuckled softly, looked up at the moon in the sky, and exclaimed, "You really are popular!"
