The softness of the girl's upper body pressed against Shen Rongguang. Shen Rongguang was stunned for a moment by this sudden embrace, and suddenly blushed from his neck to his ears.
He felt a little dry in his throat, swallowed subconsciously, hesitated for a moment, and for some unknown reason, did not push Wang Lanying away.
Until he heard Wang Lanying say that she wanted him to marry her, his eyes suddenly opened wide, full of shock.
At this moment, he reached out and pushed away the person holding him.
"Lanying! You don't want to talk nonsense!" Shen Rongguang took a step back, his face full of disbelief.
Wang Lanying cried with tears all over her face. She didn't care if she was pushed away. As if grasping the last straw, she held Shen Rongguang's hand tightly.
"I'm not talking nonsense! I really have no choice! I really don't want to be sent back to the countryside or marry a cripple... You are my only good friend here. I can only ask you to save me..."
Wang Lanying saw that Shen Rongguang's expression was a little looser and his crying was more sad than before, so she quickly continued,
"I swear I won't pester you! When you want to marry someone else, I will divorce you immediately without delaying you! Okay?"
Wang Lanying's eyes were full of hope, staring at Shen Rongguang pitifully and helplessly.
Although Shen Rongguang felt pity for Wang Lanying and wanted to help her, he couldn't accept the thought of marrying someone he didn't like...
What should we do?
"I...I..." Shen Rongguang was so anxious that he sweated and stuttered for a long time.
Seeing this, Wang Lanying let go of Shen Rongguang's hand little by little, as if she had lost all her strength.
The light in her eyes went out bit by bit, she wiped away her tears pretending to be strong, and squeezed out a stiff smile.
"I'm sorry, I was rude, just pretend you didn't hear what I just said..."
"As for who I marry, that is my fate, I accept..."
"Lanying..." Shen Rongguang looked at her unbearably.
Wang Lanying wiped her face, "However, I am really happy to get to know you before entering the fire pit! If you treat me as a friend, will you talk to me at the beach this afternoon? Just treat it as a practice for me, okay?"
When Shen Rongguang heard what Wang Lanying said, he felt guilty.
"Maybe... maybe there is room for maneuver in things, and you... don't be too sad..." Shen Rongguang advised dryly.
Wang Lanying observed Shen Rongguang's expression. Seeing that his goal was almost achieved, he wiped away his tears and said, "You don't have to comfort me. Then, see you in the afternoon."
Shen Rongguang wanted to take Wang Lanying's arm and stop her, but he didn't think of what to say to her, and his mind was in a mess for a while.
Wang Lanying waved her hand at him and left, leaving Shen Rongguang alone with a struggling expression on his face.
What Shen Rongguang didn't notice was that the innocent and pitiful girl in his eyes had a smile that was destined to win at the corner of her mouth, and it didn't go away for a long time...
＊
Xu Wantang was woken up by the ringing of the phone.
She got up from the bed with difficulty, put on her slippers and walked slowly to the living room. She finally picked up the receiver before the phone stopped ringing.
"Hello? Who is this?"
Xu Wantang yawned and asked the person opposite.
A man's magnetic voice came from the receiver, "Lu Yunzheng."
"Is something wrong?"
Xu Wantang really didn't expect what would happen if Lu Yunzheng called.
Didn't he just go out not long ago? What can happen if I call back?
"I just received a call from your dad. He said that your brother took the train the other day and wanted to come to Liandao to join you. He will arrive in Liandao this afternoon."
When Xu Wantang heard Lu Yunzheng's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then he felt the fire in his heart keep rising.
If she remembered correctly, because of her brother Xu Baoxiang's incident some time ago, her parents had said that they did not recognize her as their daughter. What song was she singing now?
He sent the person over without even telling her in advance. Killing first and showing off later was enough to make her family understand.
Xu Wantang took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions, "Based on what I know about him, I'm afraid he has nothing else to say besides this, right?"
Lu Yunzheng on the other end of the phone said "hmm" and continued, "He asked me to arrange a job for your brother, preferably an iron rice bowl."
Xu Wantang did not hide her emotions at all. She sneered, seeming to be laughing at Xu Baorui's overestimation of his abilities.
Xu Baorui has just turned 18 this year. His education is a junior high school degree and he has no work experience.
Her brother Xu Baorui has not been good at studying since he was a child, but her mother firmly believes that Xu Baorui, the younger son, has not yet exerted his strength. She feels that her son will definitely be successful one day, and he will definitely be admitted to university and honor his ancestors.
But her youngest son, who she was proud of, barely graduated from junior high school after two years of re-reading.
Although she graduated, she didn't get into any high school. Xu's mother didn't believe this, so she forced Xu Baorui to prepare for the exam at home for a whole year, but she still failed to pass the exam.
Xu's mother still wanted to continue educating her youngest son, but Xu Baorui didn't want to continue studying. Her mind was filled with the colorful world outside and wanted to work.
In the last life, Xu's father and Xu's mother also begged Xu Wantang. Xu Wantang took out the money he had saved for a long time and arranged an iron rice bowl for Xu Baorui in City B.
But in this life, Xu Wantang is not so stupid.
She is not a Bodhisattva, so why would you come here to make a wish?
Are you still arranging work? Beautiful thought!
Xu Wantang asked Lu Yunzheng, "He asked you to arrange work, how did you answer him?"
Lu Yunzheng: "I said it depends on what you mean."
After what happened in City B last time, Lu Yunzheng knew that Xu Wantang had a falling out with her family, and he would never agree to Xu's family's request casually again.
Xu Wantang said with satisfaction, "Well done, you don't have to worry about my mother's family's affairs, and Xu Baorui doesn't have to take care of it."
Xu Wantang's eyes turned cold, and he added in his heart: Let him fend for himself.
In her last life, she cherished this younger brother very much. It could be said that she raised Xu Baorui single-handedly.
She was only three years older than Xu Baorui, but at that time her parents were busy and her brother was unreliable. Xu Wantang sometimes even carried Xu Baorui on her back and took her to school to take care of her.
From childhood to adulthood, she has devoted herself to Xu Baorui's affairs.
But when she needed cash flow and wanted to ask Xu Baorui for help, she only received Xu Baorui's impatient words, "Sister, why are you so useless? You are my sister, and you still care about my younger brother asking for money. How embarrassing are you? !”
After Xu Baorui finished speaking, he looked at Xu Wantang with disdain, then rode away gracefully on his newly purchased imported motorcycle...
In this new life, Xu Wantang wanted to see if Xu Baorui would be as handsome as in the last life without her useless help!
Didn’t Xu Baorui come to Liandao?
Then come, but she won't admit that she has such a brother!
