After Jiang Yuying met Guo Zhengliang, she went to the department store to buy a pair of shoes.
When she returned home, she found the food on the table, but there was no sign of Wang Shouzhi. After looking around, she discovered that the door of the small room was tightly locked.
She knocked on the door, and a faint sound came from inside, but it quickly disappeared. Jiang Yuying was a little surprised, so she knocked a few more times and shouted, "Wang Shouzhi, is that you?"
After a long while, Wang Shouzhi's slightly tired voice came from inside, "It's me."
Jiang Yuying was just about to turn around and leave when she heard a crackling sound from inside, which scared her.
She quickly looked for the key to open the door.
When I opened the door, I found Wang Shouzhi sitting in a chair, drunk and staggering.
He moved all the books that were originally on Xiaodie's wooden desk to the bookshelf and stacked them randomly.
On the desk was a plate of peanuts and a plate of fried broad beans. In his hand was a bottle of white wine, which was mostly empty.
His cheeks were rosy, his eyes were slightly narrowed, and his brows were tightly knitted, as if he had suffered a great injustice.
Jiang Yuying quickly sat down beside the bed and looked at him, "What's wrong with you?"
Wang Shouzhi narrowed his eyes and looked at her. It took him a while to recognize that the person in front of him was her. "Yuying?"
The voice was gentle, yet lingering and a little unbelievable.
Jiang Yuying's heart tightened and she felt a little flustered. "What's wrong with you?"
Wang Shouzhi shook his head and said nothing. He tried to stand up by holding onto the table, but his whole body was too weak and he fell back into the chair.
Jiang Yuying was worried that he would smash the dishes again later, so she immediately cleaned up the dishes.
When she had tidied up and returned to the small room, she saw that he had still stood up. She was worried that he might fall, so she immediately came over to help him up.
"Go to the bedroom and sleep."
All of Wang Shouzhi's weight was on her, but fortunately Jiang Yuying was strong enough not to be crushed by him.
She couldn't help but glare at him, "If you can't drink, then don't drink so much. It's harmful to your health."
Wang Shouzhi narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "I feel bad."
Jiang Yuying followed up his question and asked, "Why do you feel uncomfortable?"
"I saw Yuying smiling at Guo. I felt bad." He leaned on the bed and pounded his chest, "It feels so bad here! So bad!" He paused and continued, "I know I'm not worthy of her, but I like her. I've never liked anyone as much as I like her. Whenever I look at her, I feel warm inside."
Jiang Yuying pursed her lips and sat beside the bed watching him sleep.
He has a good-looking face, probably inherited from his godmother. His skin is very delicate, and even though he is often exposed to the wind in the countryside, it is still fair and beautiful. His lips are thin and his nose is very straight. His facial features are all soft. Unlike Guo Zhengliang, he is gentle and quiet. Just like he likes her, he is silent.
She still remembered the first time he confessed his feelings to her.
It was a very hot autumn day. She was scolded and sat by the stone wall in the Martyrs' Park crying.
She looked at the loving smiles of her father and mother on the tombstone and felt very ashamed.
They are martyrs, but as their daughter, she discredits them. She is not worthy of being their daughter.
There is a reason why Guo Zhengliang chose to abandon her.
She wanted to leave this world, and just when she mustered up the courage to hit the stone tablet, she was hugged by someone.
She looked up and saw that it was Wang Shouzhi, her godmother's youngest son.
At that time, she wanted to die. Every day of her life was a torment. What was the point of living? She struggled to escape, "Don't save me! Just let me die. How can I live in this world with dignity?"
"Don't be like this, Yuying, you are a good girl." He hesitated and hugged her tightly, "I know you are a good girl. I have liked you since the first time I saw you. Guo Zhengliang doesn't want you, he is blind, I want you, I have always cherished you."
She was completely stunned and forgot about wanting to die. She was a little dizzy from the news.
She raised her eyes to look at him, the dazzling sun shone directly into her eyes, she felt a little swollen and dizzy, and then fell straight down.
In a trance, she felt like someone was holding her.
His movements were so gentle.
Just like this, he was always quiet, and when he looked at her, his eyes seemed to be able to burn her heart.
But she always felt guilty towards him, she was not the type he liked, his kindness towards her made her want to escape. But the injustice of fate tied her to him.
He treated her well day after day, which made her feel more and more guilty.
Until Guo Zhengliang appeared, it was like a spell that made her figure it out in an instant.
She used to think that she liked Guo Zhengliang and he liked her too. Chen Xuanxuan separated them. At that time, she resented Chen Xuanxuan.
But it was not until Guo Zhengliang appeared again that she realized that even without Chen Xuanxuan, she and Guo Zhengliang would still not be happy. He was like a chameleon, always adapting to the environment and others. In a way, their personalities were opposite.
On the contrary, it was Wang Shouzhi who could treat her the same way all the time, liked her, tolerated everything about her, even her stubbornness, and regarded her shortcomings as advantages. Such a gentle and loving man was what she needed most.
There are so many couples in this world who can stay together for their entire lives, but how many of them are together because they love each other
Being with Wang Shouzhi, supporting each other for life, and having someone to accompany you and talk to you when you are old. This is the happiness she wants.
Although it was simple, it moved her more than many earth-shattering love stories.
After a night of hangover, Wang Shouzhi found himself having a severe headache.
He looked up and saw Jiang Yuying sitting sideways in front of the bed with her hands on the bedpost.
Wang Shouzhi immediately lifted the quilt, laid her down on the bed, and covered her with the quilt.
He looked down at his wrinkled clothes, worried that changing clothes would disturb her, so he left the room without even changing his clothes and went to the water tank to wash up.
After he finished making breakfast, he looked at the time and was worried that Yuying would be late for work. He walked into the big room and gently patted Yuying on the shoulder, "Yuying, get up quickly, you'll be late."
The moment Jiang Yuying opened her eyes, she looked a little dazed, revealing a bit of innocent cuteness that made Wang Shouzhi's heart melt again.
He lowered his eyes in a calm manner, "Hurry up, it's already past seven o'clock."
He let go of her hand and straightened up, just as he was about to get up, he saw her reach out and hold him, "I want to tell you something."
Wang Shouzhi lowered his head suddenly, looking a little flustered. Was she going to leave with Guo Zhengliang? But he couldn't ask. If he did, he wouldn't be able to maintain this fake marriage. He didn't dare!
He shook his head and quickly changed the subject, "Yuying, I have something to do at the Water Conservancy Bureau, I'll leave first!" As he said that, he rushed out in a hurry.
Jiang Yuying, who had lived together for several years, knew his situation very well. Every time he came back from the countryside, he could have two days of rest. She immediately stopped him and said, "Wang Shouzhi, I have something to tell you!"
Wang Shouzhi turned around suddenly, sat down in front of the bed and covered her mouth with his hand, his eyes red and his voice choked, "Yuying, can you reconsider it?"
Jiang Yuying looked at him straight, and she felt his hands were shaking.
Being looked at by her with a firm yet complicated expression, Wang Shouzhi couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Even if he tried to avoid her again, it would be useless. Yuying had always been a person with a strong character. Isn't that why he liked her
He let go of the hand that had been covering her mouth, lowered his head slightly, his voice was a little bitter, and he was still struggling, "I know I'm not as good as Guo Zhengliang. I'm a second marriage and I have a daughter. It's too unfair for you to let a virgin girl marry me. But I will treat you very well. I can wash your clothes, cook for you, clean the house, and be your solid backup. Guo Zhengliang is too good, he may not be willing to do these for you. Does he know that you like spicy food but can't eat garlic? Does he know that you have your period at the beginning of every month? Does he know that you are allergic to broad beans? Does he know that you like to wear blue and pink clothes? You see, I know everything, does he know?"
Jiang Yuying looked at him and blinked away the tears in her eyes. He liked her much more than she thought. She went forward and hugged his waist, lying in his arms and whispered, "You are right, he doesn't know. Only you know." She lay down beside his ear and whispered, "So let's be a real couple."
Wang Shouzhi pushed her away suddenly and looked into her eyes with a desire for knowledge, "Are you serious?" His voice was trembling a little because he was too excited.
Jiang Yuying nodded gently, and Wang Shouzhi hugged her tightly, "Yuying, I cherish you."
Jiang Yuying couldn't help but put her arm around his shoulders and whispered, "I know."
Wang Shouzhi, who had never received a response from Jiang Yuying, heard these three words from her. Even though they were not what he wanted to hear the most, he still felt very sweet. He turned his head and gently kissed her ear, and Jiang Yuying immediately felt numb.
Perhaps sensing her trembling, Wang Shouzhi suddenly leaned close to her ear and whispered, cautiously testing, "Yuying, you just said that we should be a real couple, is that true?"
Jiang Yuying said "hmm" subconsciously. By the time she realized what she had said, it was too late.
Wang Shouzhi suddenly turned his head and kissed her lips. His movements were urgent and passionate. The place he kissed felt as if it was roasted by fire.
She felt like she was in a cloud. His movements were gentle, and she had always known that he was an extremely gentle person. He seemed to have endless patience with her.
But today he was extra gentle, his eyes were slightly red, and when he kissed her, it seemed that tears flowed onto her body. It was so hot and burning that it seemed to burn her heart.
She seemed to be brought by him to a very empty and high place, with clouds all around. She wanted to climb up to the peak of clouds, but was struck by the sea of clouds again and again.
He held her from below, his movements were gentle, as if she were holding a treasure that was extremely precious to her, allowing her to see the most beautiful clouds in the sky.
Suddenly, the scene exploded like fireworks. She regained her composure and looked up at him. His eyes were full of her. She felt warm in her heart and couldn't help but move closer to him, calling softly, "Fifth Brother?"
Wang Shouzhi paused, "What did you call me?"
Thinking he didn't like the name, she changed it to another one, "Azhi?"
He was a little excited and kept kissing her, "I like you calling me that. Yuying, I like it!"
"Okay! Azhi!"
"Scream again!"
"Azhi!"
"Yuying, it sounds so nice! Can you call me again?"
"Azhi!"
"Azhi!"
"Azhi!"
. . .
After making love, Wang Shouzhi leaned over to hug her waist, kissed her earlobe and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"
Jiang Yuying blushed, thinking of what had just happened, and answered his question with shame, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
He hugged her tightly again and whispered, "Yuying, I am so happy."
Yuying pursed her lips, "Me too!"
Wang Shouzhi's eyes lit up, and he asked cautiously, "Can I do it again?"
Jiang Yuying thought of the comfort she had just felt and closed her eyes.
This meant she had agreed. Wang Shouzhi's eyes lit up. He straightened her body and attached himself to her again.
He slowly climbed down until he stopped at his waist. Jiang Yuying endured the embarrassment and said with some shame, "What are you looking at?"
He didn't answer, but kissed her. This time he was more gentle than last time, and the taste was even more wonderful. He was even willing to lower himself for her, and even eat her there.
Jiang Yuying was so shocked that she couldn't recover for a long time.
Afterwards, she lay sideways in his arms and asked shyly, "Why do you have so many?"
As soon as she asked the question, she regretted it. He was married for the second time, so he must know a lot. She thought about how he had been so gentle to his ex-wife.
Somehow, she felt a sour feeling in her heart.
Wang Shouzhi touched her sweaty hair. "My mother said that a man should not only please a woman with words, but also in bed. The latter is more important."
Jiang Yuying's face was red as blood, "Why is godmother so..."
Wang Shouzhi kissed her face and said with a smile, "My mother hopes that we can be happy."
Jiang Yuying nodded. But when she thought of the scene just now, she thought of his ex-wife, and she blurted out, "You and your ex-wife?"
Wang Shouzhi was stunned for a moment, then looked down at her and saw that her pink lips were tightly pursed. She was now nervous about him, and his heart was so excited that it wanted to jump out of his chest.
He whispered in her ear, "Don't mention her. My mother caught her having an affair with another man."
Jiang Yuying was so shocked that she sat up and looked back at him, "Really?"
Wang Shouzhi hugged her again and let her lie in his arms, "Of course it's true, why would I lie to you."
Jiang Yuying suddenly felt distressed, "She is ungrateful. You are actually a very good person." Thinking of how she had always rejected him before, she felt more or less uncomfortable.
When Wang Shouzhi heard this, he couldn't help but hug her tighter.
After a long while, Wang Shouzhi glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "Take a rest first. I'll go make you some food."
Jiang Yuying shook her head. "I'm not sleepy. Let me help you."
"No, no! Then why don't you go? Didn't you still not finish reading that book?"
Jiang Yuying smiled and kissed him on the cheek, "Okay!"
They both sat up from the bed and got dressed.
Jiang Yuying suddenly saw the red blood on the bed and her face turned red.
Wang Shouzhi, who was putting on his pants, noticed her silence, followed her gaze, and immediately understood.
He immediately bent down and wrapped the bed sheet, "I'll go wash it!"
Then he hurried out holding the bed sheet. Jiang Yuying covered her face and waited until the heat on her face completely dissipated before leaving the room.
As soon as I came out, I saw Wang Shouzhi coming in with a bucket of water.
He had just put the sheets into the big wooden tub when he realized it was inappropriate to wash them in the yard, so he brought the water in.
Jiang Yuying's face flushed and she turned and went into the study.
The author has something to say: Being together should be from the body to the heart. After all, the two of them are not young anymore... Will they be locked up? I'm a little scared!
