Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years

However, Zhou Rong complained about Li Haoyu.

But the smile on her face had already betrayed her.

No girl can resist the temptation of having control over her boyfriend's finances. Even if some girls don't really care about money, it still shows a guy's approval of her.

That's why Zhou Rong seemed so happy.

"Are you really that comfortable letting me manage the money? Aren't you afraid you'll lose control of your finances in the future?"

Zhou Rong couldn't help but ask.

In this day and age, men still hold the dominant position in society. Most women are still responsible for housework and childcare.

Although Zhou Rong has always pursued freedom in love, she is inevitably influenced by some conventional worldly views.

"Oh, it's not much money."

Li Haoyu stretched and said, "It's just a hundred yuan, why be so stingy? Do you think I can only earn this much money in my entire life?"

"What do you mean by being stingy? This is a huge sum of money! It's not like how many families these days can just casually pull out a few hundred dollars."

Zhou Rong couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"I really don't know how someone like you can write such a good story."

Li Haoyu pinched Zhou Rong's cheek and said, "Some geniuses can't be judged by common sense. You're lucky your husband is one of those geniuses."

"Besides, I'm not fighting alone; I have countless geniuses behind me helping me come up with ideas. So my success is inevitable."

"Come on, can't you be a little more humble?"

Zhou Rong gave a helpless sneer.

"If you could be a little more humble, maybe I would actually believe you."

Because I traveled from another time...

Li Haoyu muttered to himself.

However, he said, "You don't need to question me, just trust me unconditionally."

Zhou Rong couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"Then prove it to me!"

"I don't have a habit of showing off, especially not in front of my girlfriend."

Li Haoyu continued, "Besides, this is too easy for me; I think it's pointless. I'd rather spend that time writing more novels, publishing them, and earning more money."

Li Haoyu said, "Why don't you hurry up and leave? If you're late and can't get home, don't blame me."

Seeing this, Zhou Rong nodded. "Then I'll go home first. Remember to come find me when it's convenient for you."

Li Haoyu nodded and said, "Of course, I haven't kissed enough today. I definitely have to come find you."

Zhou Rong's face instantly turned red. "What nonsense are you talking about? If this is all you're here for, you might as well not have come at all."

Li Haoyu shook his head.

"You weren't like this before. Weren't you quite proactive when I kissed you?"

Li Haoyu muttered under his breath, somewhat dissatisfied. 🍓☮ ❻➈ᔕĤ𝓤𝐗.Ć๏𝐦 🐲✎

But then Li Haoyu suddenly remembered something, "By the way, now that you're my girlfriend, what are you going to do about Feng Huacheng's situation?"

Zhou Rong glanced at Li Haoyu.

"What else can I do? Of course, I'll write him a letter telling him that I already have a boyfriend, and then I'll never contact him again."

Li Haoyu looked at her and said, "You're willing to give it up now? You were so desperate before."

Zhou Rong replied matter-of-factly, "Of course, nothing really happened between us. We were just pen pals."

In fact, Li Haoyu had also analyzed this matter.

Why did Zhou Rong fall for her so easily?

The problem in this matter is not just Zhou Rong's problem.

Ultimately, Feng Huacheng was the main mastermind.

It's important to understand that being falsely accused was a fatal blow to Feng Huacheng. To a large extent, Zhou Rong was used by Feng Huacheng as his protector.

He was trying to take advantage of Zhou Rong's status as the daughter of a working-class family.

For Zhou Rong during her teenage years.

Feng Huacheng was a talented and capable poet in Beijing. He even published his poems in newspapers and gained some recognition.

The halo, the glory, the fame—they all shone brightly.

But Zhou Rong was too young then, unaware that every gift bestowed by fate had already been secretly priced.

It's less accurate to say that Zhou Rong fell in love with Feng Huacheng, and more accurate to say that she fell in love with the fictional character he portrayed. Feng Huacheng, in turn, did this intentionally, even concealing the fact that he had been married for many years.

It's actually quite normal for Zhou Rong to fall for a scam when she's not paying attention.

…………

Zhou Rong noticed that Li Haoyu remained silent for a long time.

She thought Li Haoyu was still angry with her.

Honestly, if Li Haoyu had said he had a beautiful pen pal, or even wanted to meet her in person, Zhou Rong probably would have been quite angry too.

The silence was suffocating for Zhou Rong.

In particular, Li Haoyu hadn't spoken on his own initiative for a long time, which was quite unusual for someone as talkative as him.

Zhou Rong even instantly imagined the worst possible outcome: she might lose him because of her willfulness.

Zhou Rong is starting to get really nervous.

She stared intently at Li Haoyu with her beautiful black eyes. She even secretly thought that even if Li Haoyu was angry about this and wanted to punish her, she would be happy.

She will accept it obediently.

"Hmm...we haven't said goodbye to everyone yet."

Why aren't you leaving yet?

Zhou Rong said with a surprised look.

"You didn't reply to me for a while, were you just spacing out?"

Why are you staring at me like that? I was just thinking about something.

Li Haoyu blinked. "You're reluctant to leave me?"

No way.

Zhou Rong saw that Li Haoyu had finally returned to normal.

It turns out I was overthinking things.

She breathed a sigh of relief, "You're not that charming."

"It seems I need to keep trying."

Li Haoyu scratched his head and said.

Zhou Rong said lazily, "You know it yourself."

Zhou Rong knew that Li Haoyu wasn't angry with her.

So she left with peace of mind.

Fortunately, I managed to hold back just now. Otherwise, if I had told Li Haoyu about my idea of ​​punishing myself, who knows what outrageous things he might have done.

After all, Li Haoyu was far too audacious. Even when the two of them were in the dance hall, Li Haoyu had made quite a few moves. He had clearly told him not to move around.

Zhou Rong thought of the embarrassing things that had happened before.

A faint blush appeared on her fair face.

Although Li Haoyu had a rich romantic history, he wasn't someone who could read Zhou Rong's mind. Especially since a young girl's thoughts were inherently unpredictable.

If Li Haoyu had known just now that Zhou Rong was willing to accept punishment, he certainly wouldn't have let her leave so easily.

"By the way, next time you write a new work, you have to let me be your first reader... Can you please concentrate on what I'm saying?"

Li Haoyu reached out and pinched Zhou Rong's cheek.

"Of course, that's no problem. Not just this one work, but everything I write in the future will be your first read."

Zhou Rong nodded without saying anything more.

She took Li Haoyu's arm and walked slowly, saying, "I'll be waiting for you at home."

Even if the two of them walk slowly.

The time for parting had finally come. At this moment, Zhou Rong couldn't hold back anymore. She was a little reluctant to see Li Haoyu leave and became quite clingy.

This is actually quite normal.

Young girls experiencing their first love can easily become completely absorbed in it.

Li Haoyu offered a few more words of comfort, and in the middle of that, he brought up the topic of Zhou Rong's kissing skills. Zhou Rong was instantly embarrassed and speechless, and timidly ran away.

Li Haoyu couldn't help but smile as he watched Zhou Rong's retreating figure.

This girl is still quite inexperienced.

However, it wasn't just Zhou Rong who had access restrictions; Li Haoyu also had an elderly person and a young child to take care of.

Li Haoyu also went to the market and bought some pork and vegetables.

After all, the weather is getting colder and colder. Even with the combined power of True Sight and the Miraculous Hands skill, Li Haoyu is no match for the might of nature.

It's really unreliable to rely on fishing to improve our diet anymore.

Li Xixi kept pestering him to go to the river.

Li Haoyu walked back with the meat he had bought.

As it turned out, Li Xixi, who had previously told him not to disturb her, was already waiting for him at the door.

Li Xixi complained, "You really do stay out all day! What time is it? Couldn't you have come back sooner?"

Li Haoyu chuckled, "You didn't say that before. How come you've changed your tune after just a few hours?"

Li Xixi pouted and said, "Do you think I'm worried about you? I'm afraid you'll fall into a ditch when it gets dark and make my grandma worry. Otherwise, I wouldn't care whether you live or die."

Li Haoyu saw her stubbornness.

She didn't want to say anything more.

He took a glass bottle out of his bag and handed it to Li Xixi.

"This is what I promised you before. If you don't like it, you can deal with it yourself. If you don't like it, you can just throw it away. I can't help you with that."

Li Xixi didn't think so at first.

But when she saw what Li Haoyu was holding, her eyes lit up.

Li Xixi took the glass bottle from Li Haoyu.

She picked it up excitedly: "You actually bought me orange soda?"

Her big eyes blinked repeatedly, clearly Li Xixi was expressing her gratitude, but she seemed to realize that she had gone a bit too far just now.

She was too embarrassed to say it at first.

Li Haoyu looked at Li Xixi's hesitant and awkward manner.

Li Haoyu felt like he couldn't get out of the situation.

This really feels like having a quirky and mischievous younger sister.

Li Haoyu himself has always been an only child, so he has always longed for a well-behaved and sweet little sister who follows him around like a shadow.

Ideally, she'd be the kind of girl who's a bit clueless about everything, with eyes full of curiosity, someone you can take out to play with every day, and someone who can wear all sorts of pretty clothes.

This is absolutely perfect.

However, Li Xixi's example made Li Haoyu realize one thing: some people won't grow up according to your expectations. Li Xixi was a bit too arrogant and scheming.

Li Haoyu couldn't stand her awkward and hesitant manner either.

He spoke up, saying, "I didn't buy this specifically for you. I was chatting with a girl today and bought several bottles. This bottle of orange soda is because she really couldn't drink any more."

Li Xixi nodded.

That makes sense. That's why she said Li Haoyu suddenly changed his personality.

Li Xixi carefully twisted open the glass bottle.

She carefully took a sip from the bottle cap before tentatively drinking a few mouthfuls.

As soon as the orange soda entered my mouth...

Li Xixi's eyes really lit up.

After a while, Li Xixi said, "No matter what, thank you for the drink."

Li Haoyu said with a smile, "This isn't the Li Xixi I know. How could she give in just because of a bottle of orange juice?"

"I actually still like your rebellious side."

Li Xixi was initially quite happy.

But when she heard Li Haoyu say that, her expression instantly changed from sunny to cloudy.

Li Haoyu could see right through it all.

She's probably going to throw a tantrum again.

"Um... I've been gone all day, I guess you guys haven't had a good meal either. I'll cook something nice for you today."

Li Haoyu said.

Now, Li Xixi couldn't bring herself to say what she was about to say. Especially after seeing the pork in Li Haoyu's hand and recalling his amazing cooking skills from the previous times.

Li Xixi felt like her mouth was about to water.

After all, Li Haoyu could make even ordinary loach taste so delicious. She couldn't even imagine how good it would taste if he used pork.

"Then I'll go and light the fire for you, and then I'll go and gather some dry firewood."

As soon as Li Xixi finished speaking, she rushed out in a flurry.

Only at this time is Li Xixi most obedient to Li Haoyu.

Li Haoyu also placed the pork on the stove, and after a simple preparation, he planned to make braised pork for them.

However, Li Haoyu glanced at the conditions of the kitchen.

It is indeed a bit too rudimentary.

The stove in Li Xixi's house is a brick-built earthen stove, which actually tests the skill of the bricklayer. The stove must be able to collect heat, be sturdy, and not pose any major safety hazards.

Furthermore, since these earthen stoves are almost entirely fueled by "natural" materials such as dry pine needles and dead branches, the requirements for smoke extraction are very high, which is usually difficult for inexperienced bricklayers to handle.

However, this one is clearly dilapidated.

In many places, besides being covered in cigarette ash, many areas are pitted and even chipped. This not only leads to insufficient firepower but also poses numerous safety hazards.

Li Haoyu will wait until tomorrow when the light is better, then use some cement to do some simple repairs, even if it's just a temporary fix.

Just as Li Haoyu was preparing the ingredients.

Li Xixi also returned carrying a lot of timber.

She said to Li Haoyu triumphantly, "How about that? Aren't I fast and good? I finished all this firewood in no time."

Li Haoyu nodded. "That's for sure. I'll give you a little credit for this. I'll treat you to an extra meal later."

Li Xixi was squatting by the stove fire, waiting excitedly.

Li Haoyu waited for the stove to heat up first.

However, this kind of earthen stove does have its advantages, namely, it's really comfortable to light a fire.

Li Haoyu watched the bright fire dancing in the stove, listening to the crackling of the firewood and branches soaked in the fire, and the sparks that flew out when he poked them with fire tongs.

It really felt like a small fireworks display.

There was an indescribable sense of comfort and ease.

Li Haoyu also started directing Li Xixi.

"Hurry up and wash the vegetables, now it's my turn to show off my skills."
