"I didn't have this idea before, but after you reminded me, tsk tsk, such a dark and windy night is perfect for something to happen, and besides, we're a couple recognized by the organization..."
As he spoke, he actually wrapped one arm around her slender waist and kissed her.
Qin Yuanjiu's kiss had a magical power, making Ke Meiyu clearly feel that she was being cherished and pampered, making it difficult for her to resist in the slightest.
"Silly girl," Qin Yuanjiu finally stopped just as he was about to lose control, leaning half his weight on her, "that's not what I meant by asking for this."
Ke Meiyu was taken aback, then said resentfully, "So what were you doing just now?"
"Wasn't it you who invited me so enthusiastically? Women are always saying one thing and meaning another. They say no, but they're actually blatantly hinting at it. How could I refuse?" Qin Yuanjiu chuckled softly, changing the subject seriously before the woman could explode.
“My request is very simple,” he gently tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, his voice filled with anticipation and longing, “that we walk hand in hand through life, and never part, no matter what storms or hardships we face, okay?”
Ke Meiyu looked at him in surprise.
In fact, she felt that she should be the one to say those words, since she was able to come into this world because of the system's guidance, and the key person was him!
Ke Meiyu pursed her lips, and did not give an answer for a moment.
Qin Yuanjiu's hand, resting on the tree trunk, tightened slightly. "Is this problem difficult for you?"
His voice was somewhat sour and sorrowful, a feeling that tugged at Ke Meiyu's heart, as if every second she thought about it was a step worse than before.
From childhood, Ke Meiyu was taught to act decisively and efficiently when she wanted to do something; indecisiveness was a choice only cowards and poor people made.
In fact, when faced with a choice, a person's heart has already given the answer immediately.
Ke Meiyu chuckled and wrapped her arms around his waist. "Ninth Brother, I still stand by what I said: as long as you don't let me down, I will always stay by your side, tease you, make a fuss, and keep you young even when you're eighty!"
"It is my greatest honor," Qin Yuanjiu couldn't help but cup her smooth and soft face again and said with a smile, "Yu'er, I was born to be your knight, and I am willing to shield you from all wind and rain."
Ke Meiyu nodded repeatedly, then urged, "Let's hurry up, or there won't be any food left."
She didn't really savor the meaning of that sentence.
Qin Yuanjiu got back on his bike, feeling much more at ease. "Yu'er, how many children do you think would be appropriate for us?"
Ke Meiyu, who was cracking open a handful of pine nuts for fun, almost choked. "Ninth Brother, aren't you thinking too far ahead?"
There's been no real progress between them, so why are they suddenly talking about the child?
Qin Yuanjiu laughed and said, "How could it be too far? Just you wait and see, by the time you graduate from university, your family will be urging you to have a baby. We need to have a plan."
“What’s the point of planning this?” Ke Meiyu bumped her head against his back. “We can’t just have a child whenever we want. We’ll just let things take their course and take it when it comes.”
Qin Yuanjiu's eyes were deep. "This is a very normal topic. You're not even willing to discuss this with me?"
Ke Meiyu immediately realized that she had indeed gone too far, and said with a smile, "I'm fine, at least I have both a son and a daughter, right?"
It's 1975 now, and by the time they graduate from university it will be around 1977. The one-child policy was implemented in 1982, so they no longer had the opportunity to have more children.
Ke Meiyu, a seasoned bookworm, knew a great deal about this, but Qin Yuanjiu did not.
However, this did not stop him from making plans in his mind.
Back home, Grandma Ke and her mother prepared a late-night snack for the children, consisting of easily digestible foods.
As usual, Ke Meiyu and Li Juanmei accompanied Ke Yuanxia to see Hang Yutong off. Not long after, the two of them noticed the ambiguous atmosphere between the two, with sweetness and happiness hidden in their eyes.
It seems their good days are just around the corner.
The following evening, Ke Meiyu did not go to the foreign language corner, but instead went home after evening self-study to prepare for the next day's content.
Sure enough, the peace points kept chiming all night long, making Ke Meiyu overjoyed and not finding the system's noise bothersome at all. It seemed that she didn't need to appear; as long as everyone's abilities improved and their social influence increased, she would gain the corresponding peace points.
Ko Mei-yu retrieved her recording from yesterday, used computer software to refine it, removed noise, added some special effects to achieve the best sound and atmosphere, and then burned it onto a cassette tape. She attached the corresponding paper documents, put them all into a large envelope, and mailed it to the Kyoto Newspaper Office.
To make her letters stand out, she wrote them on the envelopes in beautiful cursive script in two languages and also drew pretty, elegant illustrations.
In addition to the short articles read aloud in the printed materials, there is also her explanation of the importance of foreign languages. She said that in the near future, the organization will be in line with international standards, and one of the tools needed will be foreign languages, since Chinese is the most complex and exquisite language.
It's easy for Chinese people to learn foreign languages, but it will take a long time for foreigners to learn Chinese. Therefore, for the sake of national development, young people should arm themselves with knowledge and skills and strive for the future development of the country.
At that time, foreign languages will also be popularized, just like the organization has always emphasized literacy campaigns.
She then listed the results of the foreign language corner event, believing that with such thorough preparation, her letter would not be overlooked.
Therefore, Ke Meiyu silently prayed in her heart while delivering the package.
