When Li Man saw his walking posture, a strange look appeared on her face.
"I'm so sorry to have kept everyone waiting." He sat down with an unnatural expression.
Li Man: "You walk like you're carrying something between your legs, what's wrong?"
His face flushed red instantly: "N-nothing, I just feel a little cold." He shifted uncomfortably, clearly he had scratched himself, otherwise why would he feel such a burning pain?
"Oh, okay." She called the waiter over to reheat the dishes on the table.
Ma Peiwen couldn't get a word in edgewise at the dinner party, and watching them chat and laugh made him feel incredibly frustrated.
What's even more infuriating is that the burning pain in his buttocks hasn't subsided. If he had known it would be like this, he would have preferred to wipe with his underwear rather than use those wooden sticks!
At the restaurant entrance,
Ma Peiwen, holding the flowers, looked at Li Man, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Xiao Man, um...um."
Seeing his stammering, Li Man said, "Just say what you have to say."
"Can I stay at your place for the night? I don't like staying in hotels here."
Luo Jianxing looked at him with hostility, his intentions were far too obvious!
He regrets it terribly now; he should have soaked the stick in the spiciest chili water to make his anus burst open from the heat.
Li Man smiled and said, "I'm sorry, something unclean has recently entered my house, so I asked a master to perform a ritual. The master said that no one can live there for forty-nine days."
“I’ve been sleeping with Miaomiao lately. If you really can’t get used to living here, you can go back to the US. There should still be plane tickets available.”
Luo Jianxing added, "He sleeps with me occasionally too."
Ma Peiwen said incredulously, "Xiaoman, is this true? You...you two have already progressed to that stage?"
She said bluntly, "Yes, so stop clinging to this. There's no way I could ever like you, so give up."
He gazed at her tenderly and said, "I will not give up. I will wait for you silently."
“I don’t need it.” Li Man left the car keys with him: “You can borrow the car first. There are so many hotels in Kyoto, there’s bound to be one that you’ll like.”
Luo Jianxing opened the back door and said with a smile, "Manman, please."
Ma Peiwen watched the car drive away, cursed, kicked the ground in frustration, then got into the car and drove off in the opposite direction.
It was exactly 10 p.m.
In the living room, four people leaned back on the sofa, staring at the ceiling, their faces covered with black face masks.
Suddenly, a mechanical voice came from the phone that Luo Jianxing had placed on his stomach.
"The target is to enter the brothel."
He sat up straight immediately: "Damn, this guy is such a good actor! Just two hours ago, he was all lovey-dovey, but then he turned around and went off to have some fun."
Luo Shimiao glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and said speechlessly, "He's just a rival in love who poses no threat. Why are you keeping such a close eye on him?"
“Cough…” Luo Jianxing slapped his thigh and said, “I’m afraid she’ll use underhanded tricks to plot against Manman.”
Gu Nian said quietly, "You seem more insidious than him now."
He picked up a premium Wow Orange fruit from the fruit platter and threw it at his face: "Are we still brothers?!"
Gu Nian caught it precisely with a raised hand, peeled it open with ease, cleaned it thoroughly, and fed it petal by petal to Luo Shimiao.
......
The next day, when Luo Shimiao woke up, only she, Ye Shujun, and Xiao Lü remained.
She led Xiao Lü to a patch of aloe vera that was half a meter tall, and held a fruit knife in her hand.
Would you like to try aloe vera juice?
Little Green stood on her shoulder and nodded: "Yes."
Luo Shimiao squatted on the ground, placed the sharp blade against the very end of the aloe vera, and cut it off with a little force.
On the second floor of the villa, Ye Shujun drew back the curtains, intending to open the window to ventilate the room.
Suddenly, she saw a figure in a corner of the garden, wielding a knife and destroying her aloe vera.
Ye Shujun gritted her teeth and said, "Luo, Shi, Miao!" She quickly left the room and went to Luo Shi Miao's room.
When he came out again, he was carrying a spiked club and headed straight for the garden.
Luo Shimiao cut four stalks, stuck the knife into the ground, patted the dirt off his hands, and said, "That should be enough."
He put away his knife, picked up the aloe vera, and turned around, just in time to see Ye Shujun walking towards him menacingly with a spiked club in her hand.
She exclaimed in surprise, "Mom, shouldn't you be in the studio at this hour?"
"You don't care where I am, I'm going to beat you up this year." She charged forward, brandishing her spiked club.
"All you do all day is waste my stuff. If we weren't so poor that all we have left is money, we wouldn't have enough for you to squander."
Luo Shimiao grabbed the aloe vera and ran away quickly: "I didn't uproot it, I only cut the outer part, it will grow back."
"Don't be so stingy. I'll share a cup of the aloe vera juice I squeezed with you later."
The two chased each other through the garden, one after the other, while Little Green watched the spectacle from the sidelines.
“Aunt Ye, you should take the longest knife in her room.”
"I wanted to take it, but it's too heavy to lift."
Luo Shimiao looked back at her mother, who was not far behind her, and said, "The spiked club is not light either. You should put it down. It will hurt your father's heart if you tire it out."
"Beep beep"
Hearing the loudspeaker blaring from the direction of the gate, a look of surprise appeared on her face: "Dad, help!" She ran forward excitedly.
When they ran into the yard, they found it wasn't Luo Jingyuan, but their older brother and sister-in-law, with their sister-in-law holding their little niece.
"Why is it you?"
Luo Ziliang raised an eyebrow, looking at her slightly disappointed expression, and said, "Is it because your little lover is disappointed?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Shujun ran out from around the corner of the house. She saw the joy rising in her eldest son's eyes as he pointed his spiked club at Luo Shimiao and said, "Ziliang, help me catch your sister."
