Wu Ju was in no mood to say anything nice to Zhang Xiaoqin at this time. She was so angry that she didn't know where to vent it!
"If you're afraid of starving to death, then do it yourself. Haven't you heard that doing it yourself will ensure you have enough food and clothing? You're very healthy, so are you really going to starve to death without that living allowance?"
“I—I—”
Zhang Xiaoqin had always been pampered by Wu Ju and had never been scolded like this. She was furious, but she didn't want to break up with Wu Ju, so she could only get up and leave angrily.
I'm starving to death? Who am I, Zhang Xiaoqin, to be so troubled by three meals a day?
She walked while grinning and muttering complaints.
After a long journey, Zhang Binglin and Xiao Shuangning finally arrived at the county town and began their long journey to find their relatives.
Zhang Binglin knew very well that if he continued to search aimlessly, his hope would be slim. But for the sake of poor little Shuangning, he had no choice but to give it a try.
In this way, there was another pair of grandparents and grandchildren looking for their relatives in the small county town. They went from house to house looking for their relatives, asking questions day and night, rain or shine, just like Shumei did when she was looking for her daughter.
One evening, when Wu Meng and Qing Ke were strolling by the river, a row of fireworks suddenly lit up on the river bank, the colorful fireworks were very eye-catching.
"What a nice view!"
Qing Ke looked at the dazzling fireworks in the space and couldn't help but admire them. The corners of her mouth involuntarily curled up, revealing a sweet smile.
At the same time, colorful lights suddenly lit up under their feet. The lights were arranged in two rows in a straight line, stretching into the distance.
The two walked along the colorful lantern road. At the end of the road, the colorful lanterns formed a heart-shaped circle with two rows of large characters lit up in the circle.
Coco: Will you be my girlfriend?
Qing Ke covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes. In her entire life, no man had ever done such a romantic thing for her.
But although she was touched, she didn't have any feelings for Wu Meng. At most, she felt more sympathetic towards his situation.
"Do you like it?"
"What do you like? These fireworks?"
Qing Ke pretended to be confused and turned around to walk back.
"Coco, will you be my girlfriend?"
Wu Meng chased after her, blocked Qing Ke's way, and looked at Qing Ke lovingly. His eyes had never been so gentle, and his expression had never been so serious. He repeated the words on the ground with his own mouth.
Qing Ke was really not ready to start a new relationship. Besides, she just sympathized with Wu Meng's situation, admired his masculinity of standing alone against a hundred opponents, and regarded him as a friend with whom she could have a deep friendship.
"Wu Meng, you know, I've always considered you a friend. Isn't it great for us to be like this now? We can be close friends who can talk to each other."
Qing Ke politely declined. Although she spoke with absolute certainty, she couldn't guarantee how long she could remain tough. She vaguely felt her heart opening up little by little, slowly erasing the shadow of Wencai.
In order to avoid Wu Meng's affectionate gaze, she struggled to break free from Wu Meng's hand and walked towards the railing by the river.
Wu Meng has always been decisive in his actions and doesn't want to get too entangled with Qing Ke.
He had done everything he could, said everything he could, and tried his best, but Qingke still wouldn't give in. He didn't have any more patience, so he decided to find another way.
"Okay, I have confidence in myself. I'm so talented, but if I miss this opportunity, I'll never get it again. Think carefully, okay?"
Wu Meng followed him and picked up a small stone on the ground, creating a series of splashes on the river surface.
He acted as if nothing had happened and did not show any displeasure at Qing Ke's polite refusal. Instead, he instantly turned back into the playboy who spoke frivolously.
"You! You can't be serious for two seconds, and you always look so self-righteous. I advise you to change this bad habit of yours, or you will never be able to get married in the future."
"If I can't marry her, then I can't marry her. Anyway, I, Wu Meng, don't believe in this bullshit love. It's so much better to live a carefree life alone. Why should I tie my hands and feet for those floating things?"
Wu Meng leaned against the river railing and blurted out his true thoughts.
Qing Ke had just been feeling uncomfortable because she had rejected Wu Meng. Unexpectedly, Wu Meng's words completely wiped away the slight sense of guilt in her heart.
"Okay, you're really pretending. You just solemnly expressed your feelings to me, but the echo of your feelings is still in my ears, and you immediately revealed your fox tail. Tell me, what are you up to? Do you think I'm the target of your flirting?"
Qing Ke stepped on Wu Meng's foot and twisted his ear to question him.
"It hurts, let go. Can you please stop twisting my ears all the time? You don't look like a lady from head to toe. You're just a tigress in gold and silver."
"you----"
Qing is willful and capricious, but facing Wu Meng, who is smooth-talking and rarely says serious words, she can only admit defeat.
She had been with Wu Meng for so long that she had become accustomed to Wu Meng's bullying. She clearly wanted to retort, but she didn't know how to start. She could only turn around and walk towards home angrily.
"Okay, I really didn't lie to you. Before I met you, I didn't believe in love, but since I met you, I really want to give it a try to see if I really still have the ability to love."
Wu Meng followed Qing Ke closely and tried hard to explain to Qing Ke.
"Try? You're really treating me as a test subject? Do I look that much like a guinea pig?"
Obviously, Wu Meng's words annoyed Qing Ke, and she quickened her pace.
Wu Meng, Wu Meng, you're smart all your life, but you're just foolish for a moment. How come you can't lie in front of this young lady? You're so foolish that you blurt out your true feelings word for word. No one would be happy to hear that!
