Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

After a whole night of tossing and turning, He Yuzhu woke up feeling refreshed, while Chen Xueru's legs were weak, completely overturning the universally acknowledged truth that "the only thing that doesn't get plowed is the ox that dies from exhaustion."
"He Yuzhu, you're a fucking animal! My legs are shaking, but you're acting like nothing's wrong..."

Chen Xueru was on the verge of tears. The front was okay, but the back was numb everywhere. How long had this beast been without doing this?
That's impossible. How could Cai Qiuyue not do something after walking such a long way? Besides, this guy's health doesn't seem to be declining with age.

On the contrary, I am getting old, no wonder I am willing to be a mistress, being this guy's wife is a lot of work;

Presumably, Cai Qiuyue thought the same thing, right? Chen Xueru didn't believe that Cai Qiuyue hadn't seen that the relationship between He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface;
Even Cai Qiuyue must know what's going on, right? That woman is so shrewd; how could she not have discovered it after sharing a bed with He Yuzhu for so many years?

Perhaps that woman was secretly pleased? After all, this guy's abilities, both in his career and in that area, were extraordinary; one person simply couldn't handle him!
Cai Qiuyue, I've lost again. As expected, you are the most suitable woman to be the legal wife. Qin Huairu is not good enough, and neither am I. At least, if I were the legal wife, I would never tolerate He Yuzhu like this!

"You blame society for your own lack of ability, and I don't know who keeps begging for mercy. Chen Xueru, your ability is getting worse every day. You can't keep going like this."

Go back and take good care of yourself. You're such a waste! I haven't even had my fill, and you're already begging for mercy. What a spoilsport! Get up now, Zhen'er should be coming to urge you to get up. Sigh!

He Yuzhu shook his head and gave a series of disdainful comments before going to wash up, leaving Chen Xueru questioning her life.
Damn it, are all men like that? Impossible. Xu Huizhen even bought aphrodisiacs for that purpose. I'm afraid Cai Quanwu doesn't have that kind of strength.

"You beast, you're blaming me? You were like a little calf when we were doing it, I tried my best, okay?"

Chen Xueru angrily slammed her pillow, seemingly venting her dissatisfaction. She had thought that by letting go, she could squeeze He Yuzhu dry, but now, not only did she fail to achieve her goal, she was also ridiculed by this guy. She would never be able to hold her head up again. What a damn beast!

"Stop talking nonsense, get up and get ready. We have an appointment, we can't be late, can we? These two people are no ordinary people;
This isn't the capital; this is their home turf. Flamigil and Elena are from prominent families, and these people value etiquette above all else. Let's not give them the impression that we're being disrespected!

He Yuzhu's voice came from the bathroom. Helpless, Chen Xueru had no choice but to get up and wash. After dressing up, she put on a suede coat and a fur hat. And you have to admit, she really looked quite charming!
After having breakfast, the two familiarized themselves with the local etiquette for polar bears and then headed to the restaurant, which was a top-class hospitality establishment.

"Wow, Mr. He, it's been a long time! You're still as dashing as ever!"

Vladimir speaks Chinese fluently, although there are some awkward parts, but basic communication is not a problem!
"Vlamikl, you're still as dashing as ever after all these years! Elena, it's been a long time, you're still as beautiful and charming as ever!" Of course, a cheek kiss was inevitable upon meeting. Vlamikl was quite sensible and knew the Eastern custom of being reserved, so he gave Chen Xueru a simple handshake. Elena, on the other hand, seemed not to understand and gave a cheek kiss.

Chen Xueru smiled, but used the two-finger technique with ease. He Yuzhu grimaced, but dared not make a move, which made Chen Zhen secretly laugh. His mother was jealous!
Afterwards, the four of them began to reminisce about the scene from back then. The small tavern left a deep impression on the two of them, and when they talked about the small tavern, they couldn't help but mention that little woman, Xu Huizhen!

"Ms. Chen, how is Ms. Xu Huizhen? Why didn't she come along this time? Speaking of which, I miss her a little!"

Vladimir was the first to mention Xu Huizhen, and when he spoke of her, he seemed to miss her, as if their relationship was quite special!
"Xu Huizhen, she's very busy. She's invested in a hotel and a winery. Oh, the kind of baijiu you've tasted. It's already in mass production."
They're so busy, how could they have time to come here? I brought some with me, I'll have Zhen'er deliver them to you later!

Chen Xueru looked at Vladimir strangely, seemingly recalling some past events that Xu Huizhen had mentioned, and couldn't help but laugh;
He Yuzhu was completely baffled. They were just chatting, what was with all that smiling? Where did their morning etiquette lessons go?

Chen Xueru knew exactly what He Yuzhu was thinking, and couldn't help but lean close to his ear and quickly explain the whole story;
He Yuzhu looked at him strangely. Good heavens, this is really something. Vladimir, I have to say you're a talent. You call yourself a China expert? What a load of crap. This is only possible with Xu Huizhen. If it were Chen Xueru, it would be terrible.
It turns out that Vladimir and Elena were in a romantic relationship back then. They came together because of an arranged marriage between their families, but their values ​​were completely different, so they were only superficially compatible.

Vladimir discovered the tavern and, after visiting it several times, became attracted to Xu Huizhen. This guy was truly fearless and actually asked Xu Huizhen to be his lover.
He also said that he would give $10,000 as a reward if I agreed. Back then, $10,000 was equivalent to 10,000 yuan. Just think, how much was 10,000 yuan in 1955?

Ninety-nine percent of households in Beijing don't have that much money, and even those that do dare not take it out, let alone put it in a bank.

It's clear that Vladimir did indeed like Xu Huizhen, but such words sounded more like something a prostitute would say, so Xu Huizhen could only politely refuse, after all, he was an international friend;
Later, Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen talked about Vlamikl and learned about this incident. That's why Chen Xueru couldn't help but laugh. It was truly bizarre!

If Xu Huizhen had directly called the police or reported it to the local street office, given the relationship between China and the US at the time, it would likely have been directly reported to the Russian authorities. How would Vladimir have handled that? That's the difference in culture!
"Ms. Chen, have I done something wrong?"

Flamkiel was so uncomfortable by Chen Xueru's laughter that he couldn't help but check his clothes, trying to find out what was making Chen Xueru laugh.
"No, Vladimir, I was just thinking about some things from back then. Please don't take offense, haha!"

Chen Xueru quickly regained her composure. More than twenty years had passed; she couldn't very well bring this up again, could she? She could only suppress her laughter and try to brush it off with a laugh!
"I see. The capital city of Shenzhou is already ahead of the curve; there are many aspects we can learn from them. Cheers!" (End of Chapter)
