Hm, Tangyu, why are you here too?” Yan Yan, carrying food, walked in and her eyes widened when she saw Tangyu and Mo Xiaoqing sitting next to the bed in a somewhat ambiguous pose.
Yan Yan was no longer as polite to Tangyu as before, and her gaze toward him also held a trace of silent reproach.
To think that yesterday, she had sacrificed her dignity to test Tangyu, only to find out that he already had a girlfriend.
“Yan Yan, you’re here.
I’ve already eaten; Tangyu cooked for me,” Mo Xiaoqing said.
Yan Yan glared at Tangyu again, “You already have a girlfriend, so why act so enthusiastic?
Trying to step on two boats at once?
Get lost, get lost!
I don’t need you to take care of my Xiaoqing.” Yan Yan was visibly ungrateful, simply chasing Tangyu away.
This left Mo Xiaoqing somewhat awkwardly glancing at Tangyu.
Tangyu could understand Yan Yan’s attitude toward him, and he knew that she was aware he had a girlfriend now: “Yan Yan, I’m relieved that you’re looking after Xiaoqing.
I won’t disturb you two any further.”
“Go on, go on, no need for goodbyes,” Yan Yan waved her hand, dismissing him.
“Xiaoqing, I will come to pick you up tomorrow,” Tangyu said.
Mo Xiaoqing paused, eventually nodding her head after a long moment, her ‘okay’ barely audible.
After Tangyu left, Yan Yan shook her head at Mo Xiaoqing, “Xiaoqing, why bother with this?
If you’re really determined to make a move on him, I fully support you, even if it means sacrificing a bit more of your dignity to help you.
But if you don’t want to chase after him, then there’s no need to degrade yourself like this.
This unclear and ambiguous thing you’re doing is hurting you.”
Mo Xiaoqing smiled and shook her head, “You’re thinking too much.”
“I’m thinking too much?” Yan Yan frowned, looking puzzledly at Mo Xiaoqing.
“Yes, you’re thinking too much,” Mo Xiaoqing nodded with a smile.
“Loving someone doesn’t necessarily mean possessing them.
I never understood this saying before, but now I do.
Liking him doesn’t necessarily mean I have to have him, and actually, it’s quite nice like this.
Yan Yan, have you ever thought about how in ancient Huaxia, a true man would have three wives and four concubines, and the Emperor even had three thousand ladies in his harem?
It’s just that people nowadays are too possessive.
When you love something, you feel like you have to own it exclusively.”
“Xiaoqing, what are you saying?
You can’t possibly mean you’d let Tangyu step on two boats, willing to share him with other women?” Yan Yan asked after some thought.
“Perhaps, you could say that,” Mo Xiaoqing bit her lip.
Yan Yan was completely stunned, touching Mo Xiaoqing’s forehead with her hand, “Wait, you don’t have a fever.
Xiaoqing, have you taken the wrong medicine?
Don’t scare me, did those words really come from you?”
“Yes, why wouldn’t they be, I’m very sober.
Just some things, I’ve come to understand.
Being too stubborn only hurts oneself.
At the end of the day, a woman is a woman.
I used to think exactly like you, but now I’ve changed my mind.
Tangyu is a good man, a very unique good man, and an extraordinary one.
His future will be infinitely vast.
Such a man can never be possessed by just one woman, no one can.
I can’t, Lin Feifei can’t, no one can.
Don’t look at me like that, I’m quite certain of this thought, really.
If you don’t believe me, just wait and see.
I can even sense that it won’t just be me and Lin Feifei who like Tangyu, there’ll be many more women.
Although I don’t know much about Tangyu, I know he is a man with a strong sense of responsibility.
He won’t let down any woman,” Mo Xiaoqing said.
Yan Yan was dumbstruck, staring at Mo Xiaoqing with wide eyes for a long time before she finally managed to choke out, “You’re crazy, or deeply poisoned, you really think he’s Wei Xiaobao, huh?”
“He’s not Wei Xiaobao, he’s Tangyu, the only Tangyu in the world,” Mo Xiaoqing said, her face filled with fascination.
“…It’s over, Xiaoqing, you’ve truly been bewitched,” Yan Yan nearly fainted.
Having left Mo Xiaoqing’s dorm, Tangyu headed straight back to Princess Apartments; he had already called Lin Feifei to have dinner on her own.
“Good brother, you’re finally back, we were about to leave you behind and go on without you,” Zhao Yaya said, wearing a backpack; with National Day holiday starting tomorrow, she had also planned to head home that evening.
“Did you guys have dinner?” Tangyu asked.
“We ate long ago, had it outside.
Alright, good brother, we’re leaving your girlfriend with you.
We’re heading off, see you the day after tomorrow, remember not to forget,” Zhao Yaya said.
“Uh-huh, will do, see you the day after tomorrow,” Tangyu nodded.
Guo Momo and Zhao Yaya left first, and then Lin Feifei came over and affectionately linked her arm with Tangyu’s, smiling happily at him.
Tangyu also smiled and embraced Lin Feifei, “Where should we go?” Having a younger girlfriend was indeed a happy thing.
That’s why these days, so many people wanted an older man-younger woman relationship.
“I want to go somewhere,” Lin Feifei said.
“Sure, let’s go,” Tangyu nodded.
“Hehe, you agreed without even asking where.
What if I wanted to go to the ends of the earth?” Lin Feifei teased.
Tangyu pouted, “Such a romantic idea, I’d refuse even less.
Wandering the world has always been a childhood dream of mine.
Every man has a martial arts dream, and I’m no exception.
Besides, wherever you want to go, I’ll accompany you there.
Even if you want to visit Chang’er in the Lunar Palace, I’ll be there with you.”
“Hehe, and you think you’re an Immortal, capable of taking me to the Lunar Palace,” Lin Feifei laughed happily and sweetly, radiating joy.
For a woman, the happiest thing is often just to hear some touching words from their boyfriend.
“Of course, even if I’m not an Immortal, I can still do it, as long as we dream it together.
Forget about the Lunar Palace, even the Solar System would be possible,” Tangyu said.
“Pfft—” Lin Feifei burst out laughing, “You sure know how to come up with ideas, and I don’t want to dream with you.”
When a woman says no, she means yes.
Half an hour later, Tangyu and Lin Feifei arrived at a park, a river embankment redevelopment project in a development zone, which is quite secluded, so there weren’t many people here at night.
They walked hand in hand, slowly strolling and enjoying the pleasure that love brings.
Shortly, they came to a bridge.
Written on the front pier of the bridge was: Magpie Bridge.
“Let’s walk on the bridge,” Lin Feifei suggested.
“Haha, we’re not Cowherd and Weaving Maiden, why should we walk on the Magpie Bridge?” Tangyu said with a laugh.
“Magpie Bridge hasn’t stipulated that only Cowherd and Weaving Maiden can walk on it.
This bridge is specifically for couples.
Let’s go,” Lin Feifei said as she pulled Tangyu onto the Magpie Bridge.
The bridge was simple, but it held different significance.
Standing on the bridge and looking at the sky, Lin Feifei said, “Cowherd and Weaving Maiden are really pitiful, able to meet only once a year.”
“Don’t you know that one day in the heavens is like a year on earth?
Cowherd and Weaving Maiden meet once a year on earth, so they meet every day in heaven.
They see each other every day, so there’s nothing pitiful about that,” Tangyu replied.
Lin Feifei looked perplexed, blinked her eyes and said, “Where did that come from?”
“How come?
Everyone says that a day in heaven is like a year on earth, right?” Tangyu said.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Feifei said, “That’s what people say.”
“There you go.
In the eyes of us mortals, they meet once a year, but in heaven, they meet every day.
So, don’t dwell on that,” Tangyu said with a smile.
“Fine, I can’t argue with you, but who cares, as long as we can see each other every day,” Lin Feifei said, her body pressed tightly against Tangyu as if afraid that he might run away.
Lowering themselves from the Magpie Bridge, the couple sat down on a patch of grass.
The stars, a bright moon, the grass, distant lights, and the quiet environment—all of this made it the perfect setting for a romantic date.
As soon as they sat down, the air seemed to thicken with the scent of hormones.
They lay down on the grass, Lin Feifei nestled in Tangyu’s arms, and without noticing, their lips met.
“Hmm, someone’s coming.” Suddenly, Tangyu moved, and in one motion, he stood up with Lin Feifei in his arms, his gaze fixating on the figures ahead.
Three thuggish-looking youths emerged from the shadows.
Although the light was dim, it couldn’t obscure Lin Feifei’s beauty.
The men’s lustful eyes settled on Lin Feifei, as if they wanted to devour her, while Tangyu was outright ignored.
The trio, with an air of arrogance, quietly surrounded Tangyu and Lin Feifei with malevolence written all over their faces.
Lin Feifei’s brows furrowed, but her face showed no trace of fear, only disgust.
With Tangyu by her side, she had nothing to fear, fully believing that even if the sky fell, Tangyu could hold it up.
She gave the three men a look of utter revulsion.
“What’s with the young girls these days, so bold and wild, enjoying outdoor trysts?”
“This dewy beauty here looks pretty good.
If you want to play wild, we’re the best at it.
Come on, play with us, haha,” sneered one of the men.
The men’s obscene words ignited Lin Feifei’s anger.
Visibly displeased, Tangyu gave the three a cold look and said, “Today I’m in a good mood, so I’m giving you a chance to atone.
Slap yourselves twice each and then get lost.” Having their kiss interrupted was a terrible offense.
If it weren’t for his relatively good mood that day, Tangyu would have already been furious.
These three blind fools dared to spoil his moment.
“Haha, what did you just say?”
“Damn it, stop putting on airs.
Who do you think you are?
Daring to talk to us like that, believe it or not, I’ll kill you,” one of them threatened.
“Kid, don’t get too cocky, or you’ll die horribly.
Today, the three of us have taken a liking to your girlfriend.
She has to please us today, one way or another.
Hehe, neither of you will leave here, sweetheart.
You’d better not resist, otherwise your boyfriend will suffer.”
“Hmph, scum, get lost,” Lin Feifei said angrily.
“Wow, quite a feisty one.
Since you won’t comply obediently, we might as well take matters into our own hands.
Nowadays, you only get what you want if you do it yourself,” a man said with a sinister laugh, then lunged at Tangyu and Lin Feifei.
Tangyu pulled Lin Feifei behind him.
“Wait here for me,” he said.
Having said that, Tangyu turned around leisurely and with the speed of lightning, a kick flew out.
The man who approached first was sent hurtling away as swiftly as he had come.
Fuelled by Tangyu’s anger, the kick carried tremendous force, sending the man flying five or six meters before he crashed to the ground, wailing in pain.
The other two were stunned for a moment before charging in anger, only to share the same fate as their companion.
Tangyu didn’t let the three men off easily.
Instead, he charged forward and delivered a furious beating with fists and kicks.
“For ruining my moment, for your foul mouths, for behaving like beasts…”
The three howled, pleading for mercy, but Tangyu was not inclined to let them off easily.
After beating them up, he kicked them into the river and lazily walked away, unconcerned with their fate.
