You are my wife, don't doubt it!

Xiao Yao began to daydream.

However, imagination alone cannot prove any scientific conclusion.

For science!

Xiao Yao gritted his teeth, made up his mind, bent down, and reached out to touch Yu Luying's calf.

When Xiao Yao's hand touched Yu Luying's calf, he felt a soft and elastic touch, which made him continue to grope involuntarily.

He felt the delicate touch of the pantyhose. The material of the pantyhose was very soft, as smooth as silk, and his fingertips could not help but feel a slight warmth.

Xiao Yao's hands were impressed by the texture of the pantyhose fibers. They were delicately and tightly woven together, making the entire touch surface feel very smooth, without a single rough or raised blemish. Each fiber was flexible and elastic, giving Xiao Yao's fingers a comfortable sense of rebound.

When Xiao Yao gently kneaded the pantyhose with his fingers, he could feel the thickness and softness of the pantyhose. The thickness of this pair of pantyhose is not thin, but it shows enough softness, giving people a delicate and high-quality tactile experience.

This touch made Xiao Yao imagine the feeling of the pantyhose fitting against Yu Luying's slender calves. The soft and silky touch was so desirable that it made him miss and be attached to Yu Luying even more.

Yu Luying continued to talk to Yu Lihua while gently dodging Xiao Yao's touch. At first, she was a little surprised - after all, she didn't imagine Xiao Yao would dare to be so bold outside.

However, the girl did not show any emotion of being very excited, resisting or trying to fight back. She gently turned her body, put her legs together and retreated under the seat to avoid Xiao Yao's touch, while continuing to maintain smooth communication with her mother on the phone.

Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, her eyes were wide open, and her expression clearly revealed her dissatisfaction, but she did not make any obvious sounds or show excessive emotions.

Yu Luying gently put down one hand to block Xiao Yao's hand, signaling him to stop touching. The action was gentle and soft, without much force. Her voice was kept steady on the phone, trying not to let Yu Lihua notice the situation around her.

Finally, Yu Lihua stopped her chattering and hung up the phone.

As soon as Yu Luying hung up the phone, she started smashing Xiao Yao's stomach and chest with the phone.

Fortunately, her women's flip phone was not a Nojiya, so it didn't hurt much.

"It hurts, it hurts." Xiao Yao begged for mercy.

"Light! Sky! Transformed! into! Sun!" Yu Luying gritted her teeth and squeezed out these four words.

The girl looked around at the other passengers on the bus and seemed to be very uneasy about the environment.

Her eyes were red and she seemed really angry.

"Okay, okay." Xiao Yao comforted her and pinched the back of her hand a few times.

Then it was suddenly bounced away.

Xiao Yao half-forced the girl beside him into a hug, gently stroking her upper arm and coaxing her in her ear for a long time. Only then did Yu Luying use force - or maybe not much force - to step on Xiao Yao twice, and that was the end of the matter.

"Look, you left two white marks on my shoes." Xiao Yao pointed to the shoe marks and showed them to Yu Luying.

"Aren't shoes meant to get dirty?" Yu Luying said after taking a look.

"Really? Then don't move."

After hearing this, Yu Luying quickly tried to raise her legs to dodge, but it was too late.

Xiao Yao had already raised his foot and gently scraped the toe of Yu Luying's clover sneakers, leaving a clear black shoe print on the toe. His sole accidentally touched Yu Luying's ankle, leaving several obvious light black marks, and the shape of half a footprint was clearly visible, as if her pantyhose had been lightly smeared here.

Xiao Yao felt someone's shoe sole gently touching his ankle.

Yu Luying looked down at her shoes and socks that were stepped on and made dirty. She showed no anger or distress, but responded to Xiao Yao's actions with a more violent attack.

The two men sat on the bus, stepping on each other, and the movements became more and more intense.

They were playing under their seats, seemingly oblivious to their surroundings, focusing only on the interaction with each other - this small battlefield became their paradise, making the onlookers deeply aware: they are just two little kids after all!

The so-called bystander mainly refers to the bearded middle-aged man carrying Northeast rice who passed by them when Xiao Yao said, "I promise, I will never sleep with her again next time, and don't tell your sister about this."

This guy, with eyes full of curiosity and squinting, turned around and half-knelt in his seat - what a coincidence, right in the front row of Yu Luying - and looked down at the two people stepping on each other.

Xiao Yao and Yu Luying quickly stopped and looked at the uncle together.

The uncle turned back and sat down.

Xiao Yao and Yu Luying looked at each other, smiles flashing in their eyes.

Then, they laughed together.

Xiao Yao gently held Yu Luying in his arms, and the latter obediently leaned her head on the boy's chest, and both of them enjoyed this intimate hug.

The boy suddenly lowered his head and pecked Yu Luying on the cheek, and the latter hit him again.

Just like the last time she went to Zhouzhuang, Yu Luying brought her beloved camera.

"It's a pity that there's nothing going on there. There's nothing to take pictures of." Xiao Yao said with a smile.

A Walkman is also something that Yu Luying must bring when she goes out. Just like last time, she skillfully put one earphone into Xiao Yao's right ear.

A clear acoustic guitar sound flowed into Xiao Yao's ear canal like a trickle of stream. The boy immediately recognized that this was a song he had heard before, but he couldn't remember which song it was.

Until Xu Wei's vicissitudes, clear and very recognizable voice began to sound.

"In this September

A depressive afternoon

I want to leave

This impetuous city

I decided to go to the beach

Watch the sunset

Let the autumn sea breeze

Keeps me awake..."

To be fair, this song is not very appropriate at the moment. After all, it is July, not September, and there can't be any autumn sea breeze.

But Xiao Yao still felt it was very "appropriate".

Xu Wei's songs have such a magical power. No matter which song it is, as long as you listen to it while traveling, you will have the illusion of being "free as the wind", feeling relaxed and happy, as if a cool breeze is blown into your soul in the stuffiness.

Xiao Yao felt like a kite with a broken string, floating back and forth in the sky.

He looked at the girl beside him and was in a good mood.

The boy suddenly realized that he was traveling alone with Yu Luying.

This was not "a scene he had imagined a thousand times" because he had never dared to imagine that.

The destination of this trip is also quite subtle: one’s own “hometown”.

For Yu Xiaoyao, it is a delicate matter to decide which one is his "hometown", Shanghai or Dongru.

But at least, that's where he was born and raised.

He went to nursery school, kindergarten, elementary school and junior high school in that small town.

There are too many memories of the past there.

With Xu Wei's singing as the background music, this trip with Yu Luying was given more romantic imagination.

Eloping, wandering, adventures in distant places, a daughter-in-law's first return home following her husband, all these intentions are intertwined.

Although there were no relatives waiting for them there, there was only an empty, dilapidated, leaking old house.

……

But isn't this better?

A private vacation just for two people...

Xiao Yao raised his head somewhat.

The boy was in a good mood, following the sound coming from his earphones, and sang softly:

“That ideal other side may not exist, but I will still walk on this journey;

There are some, some, hopes and ideals, always in the bottom of my heart, which are the most beautiful melody;

But now, now, this real life is drifting with this chaotic rhythm..."

"Hey, big bunny," Little Apple suddenly took off her earplugs and turned to Xiao Yao: "Your side... that Dongru, isn't it near the sea?"

"It's said to be close to the sea," Xiao Yao explained, "but in fact, it takes dozens of kilometers to run from my home to the seaside. It's probably farther than from your home to the East China Sea."

"Oh, forget it then," Yu Luying said casually, "He also said he wanted to go out and have some fun."

Yu Luying was in such a good mood, so Xiao Yao was also very excited: "Sure, it's only a few dozen kilometers."

"Forget it," Yu Luying said, "It's so hot, people will melt in the sun - what kind of sea is that? Is it also the East China Sea?"

How did the top students learn geography? Xiao Yao said: "No, it's the Yellow Sea."

"Huang Hai..."

"Well, there's nothing to see, it's all yellow," Xiao Yao said, "but we have a special project there, called stepping on clams."

"Clams?" Yu Luying showed a little interest: "Step on them?"

"Ah," Xiao Yao said, "clams are a specialty of our area, a kind of shellfish seafood. Anyway, I think they are quite unpalatable - and then you have to step on them with your feet on the Yellow Sea."

"I want to eat." Yu Luying pinched Xiao Yao's short-sleeved shirt with two fingers and shook it.

"Eat, eat, eat," Xiao Yao said, "I'm here anyway."

But he was thinking about another scene.

Yu Luying squatted down and gently took off her shoes, revealing her white stockings. She carefully stepped into the muddy beach by the Yellow Sea, feeling the sea water rushing up to her ankles.

She took a deep breath and stepped firmly on the mudflat. The soft touch of the mud made her a little uncomfortable, but every time she stepped on it, the mud would be slowly squeezed and the clams would appear from under the mudflat.

As she moved, more and more clams emerged from under her feet. They struggled in the yellow mud, opening their shells to the sun. Gradually, her stockings were covered with mud from the Yellow Sea, and their original whiteness could no longer be seen. The mud adhering to her stockings shimmered in the sun...

"What are you laughing at?" Yu Luying's voice brought Xiao Yao back to reality.

"No, I was just thinking," Xiao Yao continued to smile, "I don't eat clams, but if you stepped on the clams, I think I'd try it..."

"Haha," Yu Luying said, "Just imagine it slowly. I won't let you step on me."

"Hey, get off, get off." The bus had stopped at some point and the driver sitting in the driving seat shouted at the top of his voice.

"How come we're here so soon?" Yu Luying was stunned.

"We've just reached the Yangtze River," Xiao Yao explained to her, "and then we'll have to take the ferry."

"Hey - do you want to cross the Yangtze River? It's very wide." Yu Luying's eyes lit up, and her eyes were full of "Fun, fun, I want to play!"

"Let's go." Xiao Yao took the girl's hand and stood up.

"Hey, don't you want to take your bag?" When Yu Luying followed Xiao Yao to the aisle of the bus, she looked back at the two luggage bags under the seats.

"If you have any valuables, take them. If you don't have any, just leave them alone," said Xiao Yao.

"Oh, I thought I had to change cars when I got to the other side..." said Yu Luying.

"What a silly girl." Xiao Yao laughed at her and pulled her out of the car.

The sun was scorching, and there was not even a shade around. The ground was brightly lit, making people feel dizzy.

The sweat odor coming from himself and the people around him made Xiao Yao feel a little irritated. Subconsciously, he habitually waited for the parasol to be raised, but it didn't.

Only then did he suddenly remember that it was her who was beside him, not her.

For unknown reasons, when the ferry entered, the pedestrian and vehicle passages were separated. Empty buses lined up in a long queue and passed through the ferry port one by one, while travelers slowly walked in from the pedestrian passage next to it.

Xiao Yao suddenly felt that the girl beside him was a little excited - the way she walked was a little excited, and her steps seemed to be jumping.

"What's wrong? Why are you so happy suddenly?" Xiao Yao asked her with a smile.

Yu Luying just smiled and said nothing. She walked and even turned around.

"What's the matter? Tell me." Xiao Yao urged.

"I just suddenly felt," Yu Luying answered brightly, "that symbiosis is also good."

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yao asked.

"If it wasn't for symbiosis," Yu Luying told Xiao Yao, "I probably wouldn't have been able to go somewhere so far away by myself or with a boy before I turned 18, no, before I got married."

I'm glad that my happiness is not one-way, Xiao Yao thought with emotion.

He really wanted to lift Yu Luying up and spin her around above his head.

"Nothing can stop your yearning for freedom," Yu Luying sang as she walked and danced, "In this unconstrained world, your heart is free of worries."

"I have been through the dark years and have felt lost," Xiao Yao added consciously, "When you lower your head, you realize the road under your feet..."
