Xu Ruantang wondered if these two would be so reckless as to do something R-rated on the street.
Li Shuhe was drunk, but Shen Qingwen was sober.
He should know better than Xu Ruantang that in this day and age, even pulling or tugging in the street will attract attention, so there's no need to be so impatient.
She turned her head to look, but her view was blocked before she could see anything.
Before my eyes appeared a lean body wearing a polyester shirt.
What are you doing?
Xu Ruantang blinked and looked up at Li Shuyang in surprise.
The latter, besides blushing, also seemed to have grown quite a bit taller.
Li Shuyang scratched his head helplessly, "Um... don't look at what you shouldn't see!"
He managed to utter this sentence after a long pause, which made Xu Ruantang laugh.
"Then why are you still looking?"
Li Shuyang was even more at a loss, "I...I didn't mean to."
Xu Ruantang found him amusing, but was also afraid that if they continued talking, Li Shuyang would explode. "Fine, fine, I won't watch anymore."
She changed the subject, "Is your injury completely healed?"
After Li Shuyang was discharged from the hospital, Xu Ruantang visited the Li family several times, but Li Shuyang was never there.
She thought that since she was the one who caused the injury, she kept worrying about whether there were any scars.
Li Shuyang's lips curled up slightly. "It's all better now. My sister told me that my third sister-in-law even came to my house?"
Xu Ruantang nodded, "Yes, you got injured because of me, so it's only right that I go to see you."
She looked up at Li Shuyang, "Did your wound leave a scar?"
If she does get a scar, she'll have to go back and ask around to see where she can find effective scar removal medication.
Li Shuyang's eyes darkened. He avoided Xu Ruantang's gaze and smiled casually, "No, the doctor said I'm young and have a good constitution, that's why I didn't have any scars."
Where she couldn't see, Li Shuyang's fingers curled up.
Actually, it left a scar.
But there's no need to let her know; it would only increase her psychological burden and serve no purpose.
Xu Ruantang breathed a sigh of relief, a smile spreading across her lips. "That's good, otherwise I would have been truly guilty."
Li Shuyang looked at her quietly, then took out a peach from the net bag. "Third sister-in-law, have a peach. It's been washed."
"Thanks."
Xu Ruantang took it and squatted down next to the telephone pole again.
She took a bite, turned to Li Shuyang and said, "You squat down and wait a bit, I bet you're almost done talking."
That's all I have to say.
These two have been talking about everything from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and it hasn't been this long. What exactly were they talking about?
After transmigrating into the book, she hadn't eaten a fresh peach yet.
Xu Ruantang loves to eat nectarines. She always feels that fuzzy peaches are not clean enough, and she doesn't know how to peel them, plus she's lazy.
Seeing that she was eating happily, Li Shuyang was about to give her the net bag in his hand, "Third sister-in-law, take these back with you to eat."
Xu Ruantang quickly shook her head, "No need."
Li Shuyang's arm, holding the net, hung in the air, showing no intention of pulling it back. "Consider it helping me out. My sister has been drinking, and I'll probably have to carry her on my back later, then I won't be able to carry it."
Xu Ruantang gave him a suggestion, "You can have your sister carry it, and then you can carry her on your back. It's not that I'm ungrateful, but I would accept anything else, but not peaches."
Li Shuyang paused slightly, then chuckled self-deprecatingly before saying, "Oh right, I almost forgot, Third Brother is allergic to peaches."
Xu Ruantang tilted her head to look at him, "You knew too?"
Of course I know.
At that time, everyone in the compound knew about it.
Because Chen Jitao was allergic to peaches, Cheng Dan asked her father to find someone to dig up all the peach trees in the yard.
This incident caused a sensation in the compound.
During that period, wherever Chen Ji went, people would point and whisper.
They even joked to his face that Cheng Dan was more controlling than if she were married, even though they weren't.
If I really get married in the future, I probably won't have any freedom at all.
Li Shuyang naturally wouldn't mention this. He simply nodded and said, "I found out by chance, Third Sister-in-law. The academy reserved an auditing spot for you. Are you not planning to take it?"
Xu Ruantang then remembered.
She felt a little embarrassed, because she had clearly agreed, yet they still reserved the spot for her.
She stood her up.
She originally wanted to tell Li Shuyang in person, but after visiting his house several times without seeing him, she asked Li Shuhe to pass on the message to him.
It seems that Li Shuhe has also forgotten.
"I'm sorry, I've been too busy at work lately. Could you please give the spot to someone else who needs it?"
Xu Ruantang's eyes were clear and sharp, and Li Shuyang had no way of saying no to her.
He nodded. "Okay, let me know when you want to go."
Judging solely from her talent in painting, Li Shuyang felt it was a great pity that she gave it up.
Shen Qingwen and Li Shuhe finally arrived, their expressions strange.
"Ruan Ruan, let's go home."
Li Shuhe walked over and took Xu Ruantang's arm.
She seemed quite sober at the moment; the wind must have dissipated the effects of the alcohol.
Xu Ruantang nodded, "Okay, let's go."
Li Shuyang only glanced at Shen Qingwen and did not greet him.
Shen Qingwen chuckled awkwardly, "Since Shuyang is here, I won't go in. It's too late today, I'll visit my parents-in-law tomorrow to apologize."
Upon hearing this, Li Shuyang's delicate eyebrows furrowed.
Before he could even speak, Li Shuhe dragged him away.
Xu Ruantang turned around once halfway through.
Shen Qingwen was still standing there when he saw her turn around and wave.
He gave his coat to Li Shuhe, and the cold wind blew against Shen Qingwen's thin body, causing him to shrink his neck.
I tried to put my hands in my pockets, but then realized I didn't have any pockets.
After the three of them walked a short distance, Li Shuyang said somewhat angrily, "Sis, didn't Mom and Dad say they wanted to break off the engagement? Why did you ask him to come to our house tomorrow?"
He couldn't even wait until he got home to ask.
Li Shuyang disliked Shen Qingwen at all; he always felt that Shen Qingwen's family was too complicated.
How can a man achieve anything great if he can't even handle family problems?
He even put himself in her shoes; if he were to find a girl from a different social class, as long as he liked her, he would take care of all the problems beforehand.
He would never let his beloved girl be caught in the middle and suffer.
Li Shuhe leaned against Xu Ruantang, her voice soft and gentle: "You make it sound so easy. We're already engaged, there's no reason to call it off now. Even if you don't care about my reputation, you should think about Mom and Dad."
"What parents? I think you're the one who can't let go of Shen Qingwen. You'll regret it when you get bullied later!"
Li Shuyang had a hint of disappointment in his expression.
"Your parents said that since you like refined scoundrels, they can introduce you to ten or eight suitable men, and you can take your time to choose from them."
Why did you have to get hung up on such a crooked tree?
Li Shuhe suddenly jumped up and said excitedly, "I don't want any 'refined scoundrel,' I only want Qingwen. If Mom and Dad don't agree, I'll just go and register our marriage with him!"
