Chapter 89: Go get the certificate tomorrow?
"Nie Baichuan, how about we get married?"
The delicate and crisp voice was cut into small pieces by the wind, but still floated accurately into Nie Baichuan's ears.
Click.
The first drops of rain fell.
Stir up a cloud of very fine dust.
Immediately afterwards, more rain came in torrents, sweeping up all the sand in the world, and smashing it to the ground without a care, blooming one dark flower after another.
Dark clouds covered the sky, the branches and leaves trembled, and the whole world was in turmoil.
Nie Baichuan seemed to pause slightly, but did not speak.
Xiang Yao thought his voice was too soft and the person in front of him didn't hear him, so he covered his head with one hand and poked his back with the other, then raised his voice a little:
"Nie Baichuan! Let's get married!"
“Click——”
Nie Baichuan put his foot on the ground and the bicycle stopped.
The rain was falling harder, and the wind blew it sideways, like thousands of silver needles rustling down.
He said nothing, reached out to unbutton his shirt, took it off quickly and neatly, turned around and covered Xiang Yao's head with his hands.
"Cover it up."
"Nie Baichuan?" A muffled voice came out from under the shirt, mixed with the crackling sound of rain, with a hint of loss hidden in it.
The shirt blocked the light and the loud sound of rain, and the fragrance filled my nose and became stronger.
Nie Baichuan stepped on the pedals again and the bicycle continued to move forward. He said, "We'll talk about it later."
Xiang Yao gently lifted a corner of his shirt, revealing a moist face, and the light returned.
The rain that kept pouring down was like layers of gauze, covering the world near and far in a hazy state.
The mountains in the distance have turned a light green, and only a rough outline can be seen. In the wind and rain, the smell of earth is everywhere.
In the world filled with rain, it seemed as if only two people on the bicycle were left.
The honey-colored skin so close to her was like a solid wall, firm and full of security.
Xiang Yao blinked, and her heart, which had been beating wildly, gradually calmed down.
She admitted that what she had just said about marriage was really impromptu, but it was undeniable that she was sincere.
She would not marry someone she didn't like, and she felt that marrying Nie Baichuan was a very good choice.
It starts with appearance, then character, and then the heart-pounding feeling after contact.
The car didn't arrive until it reached Nie Baichuan's yard and stopped directly under the eaves. Xiang Yao jumped out, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Would it be inconvenient to come to your house?"
Nie Baichuan took a look at her who was soaked all over, and immediately withdrew his gaze from her body which looked very graceful because of the clothes clinging to her body.
He lowered his eyes and said uncomfortably, "It's okay. My dad went to an old friend's house in the commune and won't be back for the next two days."
Xiang Yao nodded: "Okay."
"Come in first, it's windy outside."
"Uh-huh."
A clean towel was handed to him. Xiang Yao took it and said thank you in a low voice.
"It's okay, just wipe it off first. I don't have any women's clothes at home. Put on this shirt and pants first to avoid catching a cold and getting sick. Don't worry, we'll do it quickly."
The deep voice was magnetic and had a deliberate sense of seriousness.
Xiang Yao took it as well, his eyes lingering on the other person's naked upper body for a second, a little embarrassed: "You should also find something to wear quickly..."
Nie Baichuan looked embarrassed. He was so focused on finding clothes for Xiang Yao that he forgot he was still shirtless, which was a bit rude.
"Okay," said the slightly hoarse voice, "Go to your room and change your clothes. The door can be latched and locked from the inside."
Xiang Yao wiped her hair with one hand and held her clothes with the other, and nodded: "Okay."
She entered the room and did not change her clothes immediately. She looked around and saw that the furnishings in the room were very simple. There was a bed in the back and an unpainted wooden wardrobe next to it. There was a table and a stool against the other wall.
There is nothing else besides this.
This is Nie Baichuan's room. Xiang Yao looked at the meticulously folded quilt and the neatly arranged books and pens on the table and came to a conclusion.
She lowered her eyelashes and slowly pushed her hair, which was no longer dripping, back to her head. She took off her wet clothes that were sticking to her skin and changed into the shirt and pants that Nie Baichuan had given her.
The shirt was too big and the pants were baggy and long. She took a lot of effort to roll up the sleeves and trouser legs to the right length.
She sniffed again, hmm, it was a familiar smell, exactly the same as she smelled when she was on the back seat of the bicycle.
Somehow, Xiang Yao didn't want to go out.
No matter what, she took some courage to propose marriage, but Nie Baichuan acted as if he didn't hear it and didn't react at all on the way, which made her feel a little embarrassed to see him again.
And now that she was out of this door, she really had to face him.
So what should she say then? Or should she muster up the courage to ask it a third time?
Hiss-this is really embarrassing.
Xiang Yao rolled her eyes. Could it be that her tone of voice was wrong? Was her voice too soft and Nie Baichuan really not hearing it because of his poor hearing?
No, no, he clearly said "let's talk about it later".
Ahhh, never mind. How about we get in touch for the conversation we might have later?
Xiang Yao coughed, cleared his throat, and tried to speak in a low voice using various tones.
"Nie Baichuan, marry me~"
This is the cute version.
"Nie Baichuan, come with me to get a marriage certificate, okay?"
This is the domineering version.
"Nie Baichuan, you don't want to marry me. Is there something on your mind?"
This is the yandere version of the wall-dong scene.
"Nie Baichuan..."
"Knock, knock, knock," there was a knock on the door, and Nie Baichuan's voice came from outside, "Xiang Yao? Are you okay?"
Xiang Yao opened his lips slightly, and his voice almost split.
She is thinking about and experimenting with "One Hundred and Eight Kinds of Marriage Proposals"!
"Ahem, okay."
After adjusting the sound and returning it to normal, Xiang Yao unbolted the door and opened it.
Nie Baichuan's gaze lingered on her and he explained, "You've been silent for too long. I was worried something might have happened to you."
Xiang Yao thought that nothing happened, but he did become thicker-skinned in a short period of time.
She walked out of the room and stood in front of Nie Baichuan. She raised her head slightly and mustered her courage once again: "Nie Baichuan, how about I——"
"Xiang Yao, you just—"
The two spoke at the same time, and swallowed their words back at the same time. For a moment, the scene was quite funny. The two looked at each other and laughed.
Xiang Yao blinked: "You speak first."
Nie Baichuan hummed, and looked at Xiang Yao with deep eyes: "Sit down first, the water is still boiling, and you will have hot water to drink later."
Xiang Yao sat down as he was told.
Nie Baichuan then asked, "What happened to you just now? Can you tell me?"
He paused, then added: "It's okay if it's inconvenient."
Xiang Yao: "That's convenient. There's nothing to hide. Didn't I ask you to find out about the Zhou family not long ago? The group just now were from the Zhou family."
Nie Baichuan nodded. He knew the man's surname was Zhou, so he called him "Comrade Zhou" to Xiang Yao.
Xiang Yao explained the whole story in a few words, and looked at Nie Baichuan with eyes filled with fear and gratitude: "If I hadn't seen you, I really would have gone to the Zhou family's house and made a scene today."
However, if she really arrived at the Zhou family, she probably wouldn't be able to cause any trouble. After all, there are thousands of ways to torture people in this world, and she is just an ordinary person fighting alone. It is hard to say whether she will not compromise out of fear.
And once she really compromises, she will be finished, at least in the short term.
So, no one knew how surprised she was when Nie Baichuan appeared in her sight on a bicycle.
Even she, who had never believed in gods or Buddhas, couldn't help but secretly wonder if this was the way of life and destiny given to her by God.
Nie Baichuan frowned slightly after hearing Xiang Yao's words: "So, it's not possible for you to go back home now, is that right?"
Xiang Yao nodded wistfully. "Well, Zhang Juhua definitely won't want to part with the gifts from the Zhou family. As soon as I go back, she might find a way to lock me up again and send me back to the Zhou family."
"My brother A-Ming is not here either. He is the only one in the family who can help me. I'm afraid he doesn't even know what happened at home."
Nie Baichuan: "Those Zhou family members will come back to cause trouble later."
Xiang Yao curled her lips and said, "Just look for them. Anyway, this matter was caused by my grandma, my eldest aunt, and the three mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law. If you want to find someone, they should be the ones to look for them."
She wished the Zhou family would come over and give these people a lesson, preferably a beating until they were black and blue...
Nie Baichuan nodded and suddenly asked, "One night, someone rode a bicycle to send you home. Who was that person? Was he one of your blind dates?"
Xiang Yao opened his eyes wide: "Huh? What?"
What blind date? What about sending her on a bicycle? Why doesn't she remember that?
Nie Baichuan thought she didn't want to talk about it, so he skipped the topic: "You said, marry me?"
Xiang Yao nodded immediately as if it was a conditioned reflex, her eyes round and full of bright light: "Yes, do you have this intention?"
All the methods that he had secretly practiced in the room before were of no use. At this moment, Xiang Yao only had Nie Baichuan with a serious face in his eyes, and he felt a little uneasy.
She said sincerely, "If we get married, I'm not exaggerating. It will really solve a big problem for me."
She didn't want to go back home, nor could she go back home, because that was not her home.
But if she has no one to rely on, it will be absolutely impossible for her to cut off ties with the Xiang family, so from this perspective, it would be most appropriate for her to find someone to marry.
Of course, she had to say that she was interested in Nie Baichuan first, which led to this choice.
She counted on her fingers: "Look, if you marry me, it's not without its advantages. I'm not bad looking, I'm also good at managing life, and our cooperation can become closer, and we can make a lot of money together in the future."
Xiang Yao looked at Nie Baichuan, her eyes sparkling with countless stars, as if to say, "So, I'm a very good person, right?"
Cute, charming, and deceptive.
Nie Baichuan's Adam's apple rolled slightly, his ears were filled with Xiang Yao's voice, and the incessant sound of rain outside the house was spontaneously blocked out.
He lowered his eyes and looked at Xiang Yao, looking at Xiang Yao wearing clothes that were much bigger than his, looking at Xiang Yao with an expectant look on his face, looking at Xiang Yao with a cunning look after he caught him fighting, looking at Xiang Yao who was smart and clever when talking business with him, and looking at Xiang Yao with an extremely soft body in his arms on the ridge of the field.
After a while, Nie Baichuan raised his eyebrows and said in a hoarse voice:
"If you think it's okay, let's go get the certificate tomorrow?"
