1979: My fiancée is a goddess

Chapter 284: Dating Alone
"Crench!"

Cheng Kaiyan pushed open the heavy glass door of the department store, carrying a packaging bag in one hand.

As everyone walked out of the department store, their view suddenly opened up.

A corner of the sun was just visible on the balcony of the three-story cement and red brick house across the street.

A beam of dazzling morning light shone in, causing him to frown slightly.

Following closely was the noisy and bustling sounds of the street, hawking, calling, and children laughing.

There was an endless stream of pedestrians on the street. Some were carrying their children to buy toys and snacks. Some were brave enough to walk hand in hand with their partners on the street during the chaos. There were also many young girls holding hands and buying small accessories at the stalls...

This is a lively and noisy picture.

Even though Cheng Kaiyan has watched it many times, she still feels the vibrant and prosperous breath of life blowing towards her.

He raised his wrist, glanced at his lost watch, and found that it was just past nine o'clock, so he turned around.

Not far away, three women were standing beside a young girl selling maltose, staring at the young girl holding two stirring sticks and stirring the maltose.

Liu Xiaoli, who was observing Maltose, noticed the gaze behind her. She subconsciously turned around and saw that it was Cheng Kaiyan, and blinked at him.

"Are you still shopping? It's past nine o'clock."

Cheng Kaiyan walked closer and asked.

"It's still early, and we've only been walking around for a while. Are you tired?"

Liu Xiaoli was a little confused. They, the gay men, really didn't like shopping. When she went out shopping with those older sisters in Jiangcheng before, she often heard them complain about this.

However, Comrade Xiao Cheng seems to be still injured and is a little tired.

"I'm not tired."

Cheng Kaiyan shook his head. He actually wanted to have a date with Liu Xiaoli alone.

After all, with their mother and aunt around them, it’s inevitable that they can’t do what they want!
"Is your back wound healed?"

Liu Xiaoli walked over and asked with concern.

She didn't shy away from it and touched his back with her two little hands.

"strangeness."

The girl couldn't find anything through her clothes and was very confused, so she simply lifted up the hem of Cheng Kaiyan's clothes and reached inside.

The cold and soft little hand touched Cheng Kaiyan's back, which made him stunned.

This girl!
Are you too brave? !

This is in public, and he dares to touch me casually now. If it were in private, wouldn't it be...

Cheng Kaiyan quickly turned around and looked at Liu Xiaoli in shock.

I saw her touching up and down with her little hands until she touched the back all over. Then she shouted happily: "Kaiyan, your wound is healed? It feels smooth, as if all the blood scabs have fallen off."

Seeing the girl's happy expression, Cheng Kaiyan had no doubt at all. If they were not on the street, she would probably take off all his clothes and give him a thorough inspection.

"Almost good."

Cheng Kaiyan nodded. Apart from some dull pain in some places, the external injuries were basically healed and the blood scabs had fallen off.

"Great!"

Liu Xiaoli was pleasantly surprised to get Cheng Kaiyan's affirmative answer.

Ever since she learned that Cheng Kaiyan was seriously injured and hospitalized, she has not been sleeping well and is worried about this matter.

Now hearing this good news, it feels like a huge rock has suddenly fallen off my heart, and I feel so relieved.

Cheng Kaiyan felt warm in his heart. He reached out and touched the girl's pretty face, which was full of concern and joy. He suggested, "How about we go out and play alone later, without my aunt and my mother?"

"This...isn't this not good?"

Liu Xiaoli looked at Jiang Ting and Xu Yuxiu, feeling somewhat moved and hesitant.

After all, Comrade Xiao Cheng had said in the morning that compensation would begin today, and she was still looking forward to how Cheng Kaiyan would take her out to play today.

If Auntie Xiao and Auntie Xiu followed...

It does feel a bit weird, like I can't let go.

"It's okay, I'll just go and tell him."

"Uh-huh."

Liu Xiaoli nodded, her eyebrows curved into crescents.

The way the two of them are sneaking around like this really makes it feel like they are doing something bad behind their parents' backs.

Liu Xiaoli, who has been a well-behaved and sensible child since childhood, has a heart beating very fast.

We say we're going out to play, but who doesn't know that it's actually a date?

"I've passed."

Soon Liu Xiaoli saw that Cheng Kaiyan came up to Aunt Xiu and Aunt Xiao and said a few words.

After hearing this, my aunt and Aunt Xiu looked at me in surprise with inexplicable smiles on their faces.

Liu Xiaoli was stunned when she met the gazes and smiles of the two elders whom she respected very much.

My face suddenly felt hot and I lowered my head subconsciously.

What's going on? What did this guy say?
"Let's go, let's get going quickly."

After Cheng Kaiyan finished speaking, she quickly returned to Liu Xiaoli.

"Wait! What on earth did you just say?"

Liu Xiaoli quickly pulled his arm and asked with a serious look on her pretty face.

"I didn't say anything."

Cheng Kaiyan thought Sister Xiaoli's look was a little funny. After thinking for a while, he leaned close to the girl's pink ear and joked, "I just said Sister Xiaoli wanted to go out on a date with me today and asked them not to follow."

Oh oh oh!
Liu Xiaoli's face turned red as if blood was dripping, and it seemed as if steam was coming out of her head.

"Asshole! I knew you had bad intentions and would bully me!"

She bit her lip and stared at Cheng Kaiyan, lowering her voice and speaking with extreme embarrassment.

At the same time, one hand reached out to Cheng Kaiyan's waist, grabbed it hard, and then rotated it 360 degrees.

"hiss!"

Cheng Kaiyan's face turned bitter.

After beating up her partner, Liu Xiaoli calmed down and walked over to Xu Yuxiu and Jiang Ting. She said quite naturally, "Auntie, Auntie Xiu, we'll leave first."

"Go ahead, go ahead, and remember to come back early for dinner."

Xu Yuxiu waved with a smile.

I didn’t expect that Xiaoli, who looks gentle and quiet, has such a bold side.

"Give me the stuff."

Jiang Ting shook her head helplessly and took the clothing bag from Liu Xiaoli.

"Uh-huh."

Liu Xiaoli nodded with a red face, then took Cheng Kaiyan's wrist and fled towards the end of the street in shame.

……

……

Beihai Park in Beijing.

today is National Day.

A grand lantern festival is being held near the north bank of Beihai Park.

It has attracted many missions to visit, and even many foreign tourists.

There are many small stalls for tourists to enjoy on the small path along the lakeshore.

"Hey! Come and take a look at the lantern riddles if you pass by! Everyone who enters the park has one free chance to win a mysterious prize if you guess five lantern riddles correctly!"

"Lotus lanterns, lotus lanterns, there will be a light show in Beihai Park at night, and we can release lotus lanterns together!"

"Paper-cut man!"

"If the sugar painting doesn't look good, I won't pay you!"

"Rings! Ten for a dime!"

"Goubuli steamed buns!"

……

There is a cobblestone path beside the lake, and on the left is a shady, cool purple bamboo forest.

On the right is a vast, sparkling lake, with a long bridge across the water connecting to Qionghua Island in the center of the lake.

on the trail.

A young couple walked hand in hand in the bustling crowd, leisurely enjoying the beautiful scenery of the lake.

This naturally refers to Cheng Kaiyan and Liu Xiaoli, who had left their mother and aunt behind and went out on a date alone.

Cheng Kaiyan heard from the young girls in the courtyard early in the morning that there would be a lantern festival in Beihai Park in the next few days.

So I planned it early in the morning and brought Liu Xiaoli here to play.

"What a beautiful view. Let's go to the island later. The tower there is quite beautiful."

Liu Xiaoli put one hand over her eyebrows to block the rippling water on the lake, and stood on tiptoe to look into the distance.

On the top of the mountain of the small island in the middle of the lake stands a white Tibetan Buddhist pagoda with a strange shape, a bit like a wine bottle. The clean tower body and the golden spire reflect dazzling light in the sunlight, which is quite sacred.

"Okay, but don't worry. Once we've completed this circle along the route, we'll row up."

Cheng Kaiyan nodded and said, if you come to Beihai Park and don’t go boating, it would be a waste of your trip.

"Rowing?" Liu Xiaoli looked at the vast lake and the bottomless water, bit her lip subconsciously, and looked a little embarrassed.

Rowing sounds interesting, but I can't swim!

"What's wrong with rowing? Don't worry, it'll be fine. I'm here."

Cheng Kaiyan smiled.

It seems that the girl is a little scared.

He held the girl's soft and warm little hand and walked forward: "Come on, let's go to the stall and play first."

"I want to guess the riddles!"

Liu Xiaoli put that worry behind her and raised her hand to speak.

……

The two walked to the stall where people were guessing riddles.

The stall was the kind that often appeared in ancient TV dramas, with wheels at the bottom so it could move around, and a wooden cover on top like a roof. A bunch of small paper lanterns were hung on the middle beam, with riddles inside.

At this time, there were six or seven people surrounding the stall, many of whom were young people in their twenties who were watching.

"Hey! Let me guess one. How come these grown men don't even dare to guess lantern riddles?"

One of them was a young girl with pigtails and glasses, with her hands on her hips, looking around with contempt.

She asked the stall owner to take down a lantern and open it. A note written in pen appeared before her eyes:
The stall owner shouted: "There are bright lights in front of the octagonal building. A single spark can start a prairie fire. Name a place!"

The crowd watching immediately started guessing.

"Octagonal building? Are there any buildings of this shape in Beijing?"

"no?"

……

"and!"

The goat-horned girl thought for a moment, snorted, and said firmly: "Is the focus the octagonal building? The focus is on the latter sentence!"

Liu Xiaoli, who was standing behind the crowd, thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out what the place name was, so she had to ask for help from her own talented scholar.

"Comrade Xiao Cheng, can you guess it?"

The girl raised her pretty face and asked curiously.

"The following sentence should be the title of a poem written by the old man..."

Cheng Kaiyan thought about it, then leaned over to the girl's ear and whispered, "It's Jinggang Mountain."

"Oh - it's Jinggang Mountain!"

Liu Xiaoli suddenly realized that the riddle actually meant that the old man wrote a poem in the octagonal building in Jinggangshan, and the poem was called "A Single Spark Can Start a Prairie Fire".

In fact, many people have received such red education when they were in school.

"Yes, yes, yes! It's Jinggang Mountain!"

The girl with pigtails had sharp ears and when she heard Liu Xiaoli's words, she immediately shouted excitedly.

As he said this, he glanced back and saw that it was a beautiful and gentle girl, which made him even happier.

"Congratulations, young comrade, for answering a question correctly! Do you want another one? No one else is allowed to help you this time."

The stall owner was naturally smart. He knew that it was the young couple behind him who let the secret slip, so he quickly made amends.

"another one!"

The girl with pigtails is very arrogant.

The stall owner opened another one and said: "The square box spreads the news all over the world, without the need for paper and pen. Guess an electrical appliance."

"The radio! Sei doesn't know how to do it!"

The stall owner raised his eyebrows, picked one out of the lantern, and asked, "Two horizontal lines are long and one is short, and two vertical lines are high and one is low. What is the word?"

"This...this."

The girl with pigtails was at a loss for words for a moment. She lowered her head and thought for a long time. When everyone got impatient waiting, she suddenly shouted, "I know! It's 'stop!' The 'stop' part."

"Of course! This little girl."

"As expected of a college student, no wonder she's so smart."

Everyone was talking about it.

Cheng Kaiyan glanced at the stall owner, lowered her head and bit the tip of her partner's ear, "Sister Xiaoli, look, the stall owner's face has turned black."

"That's right. I heard that if you guess five correctly, you will get a pen worth several dollars."

Because her ears were sensitive and felt a little itchy when he bit her, Liu Xiaoli curled up in Cheng Kaiyan's arms, twisted around, and said with a giggle.

The stall owner continued: "It's not sweet like sugar, and not salty like salt. It's all over in the winter, but not in the summer."

Pigtails yelled, "Snow."

The stall owner was so angry that he smiled sinisterly and said, "This is the last one. If you guess this right again, little girl, I will give you a fountain pen! Listen carefully!"

"One side is green, the other side is red, one side likes rain, the other side likes wind, type a word!"

As soon as this riddle came out, everyone fell silent.

The girl with pigtails also coughed awkwardly. As a college student, she couldn't think of an answer for a while.

"My goodness, what is this word?"

"On one hand, I like wind, and it's green, which proves that it's related to plants. On the other hand, I like wind, and it's red... this..."

"I can't guess. What red thing likes the wind? Is it a flower?"

Everyone was talking and whispering, but still couldn't guess it.

"Haha! You can't guess it, right? I'll give you one more minute."

The stall owner was very proud. He said that partly the purpose of setting up the stall for guessing riddles was to make money, and partly because he liked to see others scratching their heads and looking stupid when they couldn't guess the riddles.

"Don't be proud!"

The girl with pigtails glared at him angrily, looked around and said, "Whoever can guess it, I will give him the prize pen."

It’s a pity that wherever the sheep-horned girl’s eyes passed, everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Cheng Kaiyan wanted to laugh when seeing this. What’s the difference between this and the teacher calling on someone to answer a question in class?
"Can you? Kaiyan?"

Comrade Xiaoli blinked her bright almond eyes and asked expectantly.

"look."

Cheng Kaiyan nodded and pointed to the withered yellow leaves on the ground.

Comrade Xiaoli tilted her head and watched for a while, then quickly understood what he meant.

Looking at the anxious expressions of the group of people who couldn't guess what was going on, I suddenly felt very proud.

This is how amazing my comrade Xiao Cheng is!!
"Comrade, your words count, don't they? I know what they are."

Liu Xiaoli suddenly spoke up.

"Of course it counts!"

When the girl with goat horns saw that it was the girl who had helped her just now, she nodded quickly.

Seeing this, Liu Xiaoli stepped forward and said calmly, "One side is green, likes rain, and refers to the wheat field."

"One side is red, likes wind, and refers to fire."

"Grass and fire, together, make autumn, the autumn of autumn."

"Am I right, old comrade?"

A confident and bright smile appeared on the girl's beautiful face.

"It's so simple! It's just autumn!"

"Why didn't I think of that?"

"A fountain pen costs several dollars!"

When everyone saw her reveal the answer to the riddle, they were immediately filled with sorrow.

"..."

The stall owner's face was as black as a stove that had just been burned with firewood. He pulled off a lantern in frustration and said, "No! You are answering for others. This is against the rules. You have to guess another one! If you can guess this one, I will respect you!"

"Come up with a question."

Liu Xiaoli raised her snow-white chin and looked towards Cheng Kaiyan with a confident look in her eyes.

It means "Comrade Xiao Cheng, my Zifang, with Comrade Xiao Cheng, he can rule the world!"

"Three mountains hang upside down, two moons are connected, a family of six, but two of them are not reunited, guess a word!"

The stall owner sneered and spoke slowly.

He specifically asked the university professor who lived next door for this riddle. He didn't believe that anyone could guess it.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

This is even harder than the last one!
This Lao Deng is definitely here to cheat people out of money!

Liu Xiaoli secretly glanced at her partner's fingers gesturing in the air, and as if she had telepathy, she knew what it was at a glance.

So she immediately shouted, "Use it! Use it!"

"hiss!"

The stall owner gasped. Could you even guess this?

This girl's talent is truly terrifying, she has the potential to be a master of guessing riddles!
