Mingrui's face hurt a little from being pinched, but her heart was filled with joy.
It was the first time that Xu Zhiyi was so presumptuous in front of him.
He liked the chutzpah.
Perhaps due to the influence of the provincial champion's halo, or because he was six years older than her, she was never relaxed enough in front of him.
Even, somewhat cautiously, unintentionally, there is a sense of catering and pleasing.
This gave him a little headache.
But it doesn't matter, he has enough patience.
After all, they had only been together for a short time and didn't know each other well enough. Once they got together for a long time and knew each other's temperament, the so-called aura would disappear and the age difference would not be a problem. Naturally, she would become unscrupulous in front of him.
It's good to be like this now, follow your mind and act willfully in front of him.
"Tell me, do you know you were wrong?"
Xu Zhiyi looked fierce, but the strength in his hands did not decrease.
Octavia's handsome face was distorted by her pinching.
He was in a bit of pain, looked pitiful, and his speech was still unclear, "I was wrong."
"What's your mistake?" She ignored him and didn't forgive him.
"Is it because I don't know where I went wrong? Please tell me, dear..."
Xu Zhiyi finally let go of his face, tapped the tip of his nose, and taught him:
"I'll tell you what's wrong with you. That's what you're wrong about. You have no sympathy for time dogs like us who go to bed late and get up early and get bad grades. Not at all! Hmph."
"Huh?" Octavia's eyes were filled with confusion.
What's the reason?
"Hmph, a well-fed man doesn't know a hungry man. Even if you tell me, you don't understand either. I don't care. If you apologize to me, just say I'm sorry. Your Versailles hurt me. From now on, I promise to keep a low profile in front of my wife and never do anything Versailles. "
Octavia tried his best to suppress his laughter and looked honest, "I'm sorry, your Versailles hurt me..."
"No, it's your Versailles, not mine!"
"Honey, what I said is yours, not mine. It's all according to your instructions."
Octavia looked innocent.
Xu Zhiyi was so angry that she pinched his face again, "I mean, it's you Versailles, not me. When you say it, you have to change the title. Oh, why are you so stupid, can't you even understand this meaning?"
Octavia nodded repeatedly, looking weak and helpless, "Honey, you have to be sympathetic to me. After all, I am rarely stupid."
"Octavia, you are Versailles, I have to show you some color!"
As she spoke, she stretched her hands to his armpits and let go of her hands and feet to tickle him.
"Ah! Hahaha...I was wrong, I was wrong again, spare me, wife, spare me, I will never dare again, hahaha, I dare not go to Versailles in front of you..."
The two got into a fight.
Octavia also knew from the chat that Xu Zhiyi had hardly slept in since he was four years old. He obediently accepted Xu Cheng's arrangements, worked clumsily and diligently, and got to where he is today.
It is a common situation among all living beings.
On second thought, everyone will eventually return to normal life, and so will he.
The so-called provincial number one scholar and Tsinghua University student has long since become a thing of the past and is just an experience in his ordinary life.
The two had had enough trouble. They hugged each other tightly and kissed each other passionately. Their foreheads touched each other and they looked at each other and smiled, with honey in their eyes.
Later, Xu Zhiyi suddenly asked: "From now on, is it appropriate for me to call you husband in front of others?"
Octavia stepped back in surprise and stared at her, "What are you talking about? I am your husband, so your name is perfect. How could you ask such a question?"
Xu Zhiyi coquettishly buried her head in his arms and said dullly:
"It's not like I'm not confident. The difference between you and me is this. I will call you husband wherever I go. Your colleagues, friends, and subordinates will all know that you married an ordinary woman like me, and you may give me You’re a disgrace.”
Mingrui frowned, feeling that it was necessary to give her little head a bath, as it seemed a little off track.
"Come on, Zhiyi, get up, let's talk about this issue face to face."
"ah?"
Later, the two of them sat cross-legged on the sofa facing each other. Mingrui looked at Xu Zhiyi and said solemnly:
"Zhiyi, there is a certain gap between you and me. No one needs to emphasize this point. You and I know it in our hearts. But this gap, I think, is caused by the prejudices of the world's concepts. It is not that there is a real gap between us."
Xu Zhiyi frowned slightly, "The world's prejudices? What do you mean?
Seeing her obedient and obedient look, Octavia felt inexplicably cute and felt so soft that he wanted to give her all his tenderness.
He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, his eyes were watery, and his tone was low and soft:
"The so-called worldly views are generally the common views of most people. For example, when defining success, the world mostly uses wealth and achievements to evaluate people's social status and produce so-called successful people."
Xu Zhiyi nodded, "Yes, I think so too."
Octavia chuckled and continued:
“I don’t judge whether this concept is right or wrong, but I think it is at least a monopoly of ideas, monopolizing the opportunity for other ideas to express themselves.
Monopoly will inevitably lead to bullying, which will bully a few people outside the so-called successful circle, deprive different groups of people of their right to speak, and make the definition of success narrower.
Zhiyi, I really like a poem by Yuan Mei, "If the grains of moss flowers are small, they can also bloom like peonies." The world always thinks that peonies are noble and moss flowers are not worth mentioning, but for flowers, they are all equal, they are equal Bloom in your own way.
My Zhiyi is blooming in his own way, and I am blooming in my own way. We are all blooming flowers, no difference.
do you understand? My cute little peony. "
Xu Zhiyi widened his eyes and pointed at himself, "You mean, I am Peony?"
Mingrui took the opportunity to kiss her on the mouth and held her face, "What else? Is it possible for a man to make peonies like me? A pretty girl?"
Xu Zhiyi looked at him and smiled, "Husband is right, I am a peony and you are a moss flower. They are both beautiful. However, husband, if peonies and moss flowers are to bloom, do they also need to be fertilized and watered? That’s all.”
She suddenly changed her tone of voice, and Octavia had a question mark on his face, "Huh?"
"Your peony is hungry, so hungry..."
Only then did he notice that it was getting dark before he knew it.
It's almost seven o'clock in the evening.
"Let's go, little Peony, follow your big moss flower and go out for dinner."
"okay!"
The two walked out of the unit building. The cold wind that had been blowing all day had subsided and the weather was not too cold.
Walking to the street, from time to time there would be little girls and boys hawking beside them.
"Brother, today is Christmas. Buy an apple for your beautiful sister to keep her safe."
"Handsome brother, today is Christmas. My sister is so beautiful. Please give her flowers."
The two of them have one thing in common: they don't pay attention to these Western festivals. If they hadn't gone out at night, they would never have remembered that today was Christmas.
Now that it's time, Octavia gave Xu Zhiyi a bouquet of roses in honor of the holiday.
Xu Zhiyi resolutely didn't want apples. Firstly, they were inconvenient to hold, and more importantly, they were too deceptive.
It’s weird not to cheat people.
An ordinary apple, put in a fancy bag, tied with a butterfly knot, under the banner of foreign festival, is the price of several kilograms of apples.
Huh, are you trying to bully the northerners for not eating apples?
The two decided to eat hot pot and entered a famous hot pot restaurant in Acropolis.
Unexpectedly, the two of them met an unexpected person here, and what happened next really touched Xu Zhiyi.
