After dinner, Shen Yanli took her to the guesthouse.
The construction of the county town is much better than that of the countryside, and the guesthouse is more high-end and convenient. It has two or three floors in total, a bit like the cheap small hotels in later generations. Overall, it is still rather shabby and simple.
Walking into the guesthouse, the registration office was in a room on the first floor. Perhaps because the sun was about to set, there was only one middle-aged woman on duty. While quickly registering, she said in a routine manner:
"The water room and toilet are at the end of each floor. Hot water will not be available after 7pm. You need to get hot water in advance. There are basins and thermoses in the room. Here is the key to your room. Go up."
Arriving in an unfamiliar environment, Zhou Yunwan was somewhat reserved and smiled friendly: "Thank you."
Although the guesthouse receives countless guests every day, it is rare to see such a beautiful girl. The old lady couldn't help but look at her twice, and then looked at the handsome boy with her.
While Shen Yanli was walking out of the door, the aunt stopped Zhou Yunwan in time and said with a smile: "Little girl, is he your boyfriend? You two look really good together."
Once again being misunderstood as an object, Zhou Yunwan was stunned at first, then subconsciously turned her head to look at Shen Yanli, he walked out of the door without stopping, he probably didn't hear it.
Thinking that she would never have any contact with the old lady again, Zhou Yunwan just smiled and did not respond. She clenched the keys in her hand and quickly chased after her.
...
...
At this time, the old lady behind me kindly reminded me: "Young people, don't live in the same room without a marriage certificate. The police will come to check your room from time to time."
Zhou Yunwan stumbled and almost fell, her face turning red. If she had known this, she would have denied it directly.
Their rooms are all on the second floor. Chen Yanli's room is the first room to the right along the stairs, Zhou Yunwan's room is the second room next to his, and Zheng Huaiguo's room is farther away, almost close to the bathroom.
The facilities in the room were simple, with a wooden bed, a set of tables and chairs, and a few nails for hanging clothes, and that was basically it.
It was already late, so after sending her to the room, Shen Yanli and Zheng Huaiguo started to get her some hot water and make her bed.
Perhaps because of the original owner's miserable life experience, Zhou Yunwan could sense their special treatment of her, but she was not the type to sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor. She would lend a hand when she could, and find something to do on her own if she couldn't.
Soon, the room was cleaned and they planned to go back to their rooms to rest.
Watching the two people leaving, Zhou Yunwan suddenly remembered something and called out to Shen Yanli: "Brother Shen, wait a minute, I have something to say."
Although the soft voice was very slight, Shen Yanli still heard her words clearly, stopped, and turned to look at the girl in front of him.
Her pair of clear black and white eyes were innocent and clear, as if she was afraid that he would refuse, and she added in a low voice: "Just for a little while."
Shen Yanli understood and gave Zheng Huaiguo a look, “Uncle Zheng, you go back first.”
Zheng Huaiguo's gaze moved between the two of them for a moment, then he left tactfully, closing the door behind him.
It was gradually getting dark. The lights in the room were dim and the soundproofing was poor. I could hear the sounds of people walking and talking upstairs and downstairs.
Zhou Yunwan considered her words carefully, pointed to a chair not far away, and said politely, "Brother Shen, please sit down first."
In the room, there was only one chair to sit on besides the bed, so Shen Yanli did not move, and lowered his eyes to look at the girl in front of him, “Comrade Xiao Zhou, what’s wrong?”
His voice was magnetic and clear, with a slight hoarseness from being moistened by moisture, and the ending tone rose, inexplicably tender.
"I want to buy some things for my uncle and aunt as a gift before I go to Beijing. Can you spare some time to accompany me to the supply and marketing cooperative?"
The first time you go to someone's house, you always feel embarrassed to go there empty-handed, but Zhou Yunwan is troubled about what to buy. To be able to raise such an outstanding son like Shen Yanli, Shen's father and mother must have a high background and experience.
But she couldn't afford the good and expensive ones, and she didn't know what they liked. After thinking it over, she decided to go to the supply and marketing cooperative first, and ask Chen Yanli for help with advice.
After hearing her plan, Shen Yanli's first reaction was to decline. After all, his parents didn't need anything, so there was no need for her to spend that money. But seeing how excited she was, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
Never mind, this is also her intention.
So he nodded and agreed: "Okay."
Zhou Yunwan stared at him for a few seconds.
Then she blinked slowly, and moved closer to him with a smile: "Then I'll trouble you, Brother Shen."
She tilted her head, facing the light, smiling freely. Her face was bare of makeup, as smooth and white as a peeled egg. The fine hairs on her temples floated slightly, like a little brush tickling his heart.
He closed his eyelids and tightened his jawline.
Zhou Yunwan keenly noticed that his breathing had become heavier. She thought for a moment and was about to say something when she saw a gray shadow quickly passing by her eye. Its long tail drew an arc in the air.
When I looked closely, it turned out to be a huge rat!
The smile froze on his face, and his brain, which had been working, suddenly stopped working.
Zhou Yunwan thinks she is fearless, except for ugly and dirty rats and insects. If these creatures appear within a radius of ten meters from her, she can perform a waltz on the spot.
This was indeed the case. The moment she discovered the rat, Zhou Yunwan was frightened and turned pale. She grabbed Shen Yanli's arm and turned around in circles, stomping her feet quickly to try to drive the rat away, while pointing at the ground and shouting silently: "Rat! There is a rat!"
But the more she reacted, the more it irritated the mouse. It scurried around in the narrow space, sometimes crawling under the table and sometimes running out to run around them.
Just when the mouse was about to run to her feet, she clung to Chen Yanli, who was closest to her, regardless. She pushed hard with her long legs, hooked her arms around his strong waist and wrapped them tightly around him. She hugged his head tightly with her five fingers and grabbed his short hair as a support point, and climbed up with all her strength.
The distance between them was unexpectedly shortened. Because of their overly intimate posture, her whole body was pressed tightly against his face. Even through the thick clothes, she could feel the heavy weight.
The mouth and nose were pressed so hard that it was hard to breathe, and wisps of the unique fragrance that belonged to girls went straight in. The hot ambiguity fermented wildly and gradually spread to the surroundings.
Shen Yanli's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously, and he raised his hands high. It was not right to support her, nor was it right not to support her. His whole body was stiff and he didn't know how to move. Only his violently beating heart was thumping.
