You are my wife, don't doubt it!

Yu Luying began to display her talent as a literary girl and began to tell Xiao Yao's friends their "love story" in vivid detail.

She said that she noticed him when Xiao Yao performed the guitar song "Those Flowers" during military training, but her parents were strict and did not allow her to have a romantic relationship, so she did not think much about it.

Xiao Yao judged that this part was taken from Zhou Qi's story.

Then, she talked about how the two of them became good friends, how they joined the literary club together, how they were both members of the poetry club, and how they appreciated each other's poetry.

This part is basically true.

Then, Yu Luying talked about the story of how Xiao Yao confessed his love to her in class, but it was intercepted by Wang Ming and the whole class praised her for it.

The crowd started clamoring. Some said they wanted to go to Shanghai to beat up Wang Ming, and some laughed at Xiao Yao for being so stupid.

"I've beaten him twice." Xiao Yao told everyone.

"Xiao Yao, how come you haven't made any progress in Shanghai?" Tang Xuewei's face was red (from drinking), and he turned to Yu Luying and said, "He was like this in junior high school."

Yu Luying said that she wanted to agree, but she felt weird about this matter, so she deliberately avoided Xiao Yao, and then told him how Xiao Yao kept pestering her.

Everyone laughed and said that Xiao Yao was a piece of shit and should be fined three more cups.

Xiao Yao frowned slightly.

Then, Yu Luying changed the subject and said that she had been harassed for several months and she liked him anyway, so she decided to go with the flow and agree. At this time, Xiao Yao slowed down his offensive.

It turned out that in December, Xiao Yao met a super rich lady from some unknown place. Except for being a little short, she was almost flawless.

Although Xiao Yao insisted that he and the rich lady were just brothers, Yu Luying still felt unprecedented pressure and anxiety.

Finally, the girl took the initiative and invited Xiao Yao to watch a movie with her on Christmas Eve.

Xiao Yao gladly accepted the invitation.

At the gate of War Film City, Yu Luying took the initiative to confess her love to Xiao Yao, mustering up all the courage in her life.

Xiao Yao was surprised, then immediately hugged her, and the play ended.

When talking about "mustering up the courage of a lifetime", something seemed to flash across Yu Luying's eyes. Xiao Yao knew that at least this sentence was serious and the feeling was serious.

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Xiao Yao put his arm around Yu Luying's shoulders, and the latter leaned obediently on the boy.

Tang Xuewei also showed an expression of "not being envious".

Xiao Yao savored this story of artistic re-creation that was both real and fake.

You have me I have you.

It is bizarre yet reasonable, and coupled with sincere emotions, it cannot help but convince the listeners.

In this story, both the male and female protagonists are very proud of their appearance.

No, it's more than that.

Xiao Yao suddenly realized that this was the ideal love story in the mind of female screenwriter Yu Luying.

Or rather, it is an ideal distorted version of their story.

A story that could, should, be better.

It's like a novelist who reinterprets certain things he has personally experienced in a changed form and then carries his own beautiful hopes and wishes.

It seems that by doing so, "he" and "she" can live happily together forever in the spirit, in a parallel universe of another dimension.

Xiao Yao felt a little sad, so he hugged Yu Luying's arm even tighter.

"I've finished. It's your turn," Yu Luying said in a slightly drunken voice, "Xu Ruiyi, how did you become Xiao Yao's buddy?"

While asking, he still held the empty cup and pointed at the other person with one finger.

Xu Ruiyi rolled up his sleeves and looked like "I'm not sleepy anymore when you talk about this", but Xiao Yao didn't like this topic at all.

"Aren't Xiao Yao and I classmates?" Xu Ruiyi said, "Once, he and a student in our class...

"Then after school, I kicked him into the bicycle shed and knocked over a row of bicycles..."

Xu Rui saw Xiao Yao glaring at him, and added: "Of course, I didn't get any advantage either. I got hit on the face several times..."

This is not true.

"After this fight, later...

"No fight, no acquaintance, and finally we became friends inexplicably...

"Later I told him that in our county middle school, no one would dare to touch you..."

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Xiao Yao thought he could go home, but the group was clamoring to move on to the second half.

Tang Xuewei suggested going ice skating, Tang Jiaxin wanted to go karaoke, and Xu Ruiyi wanted to go to the dance hall.

The final conclusion is to go to the bar.

These people had just drunk a bellyful of Bluebird Pure Draft, yet they dared to drink white wine - while looking up at the Asian Cup football match on the hanging TV, they were also doing the depth charge challenge.

Depth bomb is a special cocktail. It is made by pouring 2/3 of beer into a glass, and then putting some whiskey or vodka in a small glass. Then, sink the small glass into the beer to fill the glass. This way of drinking and this type of alcohol are called depth bombs.

To sum it up in four words: obsessed and courting death.

Xiao Yao knew that he was powerful, so he didn't dare to touch her, thinking that he would have to pee. However, Yu Luying was a young and fearless person. She didn't even ask him and just tilted her head back and did it.

"Good!!" Such a heroic behavior naturally aroused cheers.

"You...that's enough, don't go too far." Xiao Yao warned Yu Luying in a low voice.

"I... I'm fine." Yu Luying hooked her hands around Xiao Yao's neck, lowered her head and pecked his lips, her eyes full of drunkenness.

The reason why she lowered her head was because Xiao Yao was standing on the ground and she was sitting on a high chair.

"You're okay but... I'm in trouble." Xiao Yao felt that it took a lot of effort for him to stand upright on the ground.

He fought against the dizziness and the blurriness and darkness that occasionally invaded his vision.

Damn, my head hurts a bit...

Xiao Yao couldn't tell whether the cello melody floating down from the small stage in the bar was good or not, he just felt that the sound was somewhat ethereal and distant, as if it came from another world.

Maybe it was because he drank too much beer, or maybe it was because he drank too much beer that Xiao Yao always wanted to pee.

He staggered into the men's room of the bar, holding on to the bar counter, relaxed in front of the urinal, and then, before pulling up his pants, he couldn't help but press his hands on the tile wall, wanting to vomit.

He held back.

Because he was worried that if he vomited inside, Yu Luying would vomit outside.

He definitely didn't want Yu Luying to embarrass herself in front of her friends.

When I returned to the bar counter, I saw that Yu Luying's high chair was empty. My heart suddenly tightened, and I didn't know what had happened.

"Where is my wife?" Xiao Yao asked Xu Ruiyi with red eyes and heavy breathing.

"Don't worry, don't worry, it's up there." Xu Ruiyi seemed to be still sober, a man of great capacity. He clapped his hands and laughed, then pointed his finger at "up there."

The so-called "above" actually refers to "above the stage", and the so-called "stage" is just a small rectangular protrusion against the wall, only a few centimeters higher than the ground, covered with a scarlet carpet.

If you step on it, you can hear the dull sound of hollow wood under your feet.

Yu Luying was wearing a light green dress, the hem of which gently brushed across her slender legs, paired with gray white stockings and blue space-hole slippers, showing a casual yet chic style of dressing - the girl was sitting elegantly on the small stage, playing a shiny cello.

Yu Luying's posture was graceful and relaxed: she leaned slightly to the side, letting the cello rest against her belly. Her hands held the bow softly and skillfully, gently playing with the strings. The girl looked a little tipsy, with a look of intoxication and devotion in her eyes.

Her temperament seems to be integrated with the sound of the piano, exuding a unique charm, and the confidence and calmness she exudes make people fall for her. In her performance, she conveys a pure and full emotion, as if every note carries a story from her heart.

Xu Ruiyi, Tang Jiaxin, Zhang Lei, Tang Xuewei and other friends were all shocked by Yu Luying's piano playing - they stared at her intently, with expressions of amazement and admiration on their faces. Yu Luying's performance made them feel a wonderful and unique enjoyment, and every note stirred ripples in their hearts.

Xu Ruiyi smiled and clapped his hands, finally feeling a little jealous of Xiao Yao; a glimmer of admiration flashed in Tang Jiaxin's eyes, and he lowered his head to drink another cocktail; Zhang Lei and Tang Xuewei were intoxicated in Yu Luying's musical world, their hearts were touched by her piano playing, as if their emotions were merged with hers; the two brothers whose names Xiao Yao couldn't remember were whispering to each other, and none of them would take their eyes off Yu Luying on the stage.

On the stage of this small bar, Yu Luying's piano playing became the focus. With her beauty, temperament and talent, she conquered everyone's hearts, moving and intoxicated everyone.

When the song ended, eight people walked out of the small music bar.

Zhang Lei's mother urged her to go back quickly, so Xu Ruiyi prepared to send her home first. The two brothers whose names could not be remembered also said they wanted to leave first. Seeing that everyone was about to scatter like monkeys when the tree fell, Tang Xuewei and Yu Luying were still not satisfied and clamored to go dancing. Curly-haired Old Tang also agreed.

"Hey, that's enough." Xiao Yao reminded Yu Luying again in a low voice.

"No!" Yu Luying said loudly: "I want to dance! You...you teach me to dance!"

What the hell? Are you having fun? Xiao Yao frowned.

"In that case," Xu Ruiyi patted Xiao Yao on the shoulder and said, "You go first. I'll be back soon after I send Zhang Lei home."

"You've drunk so much, so don't drive." Xiao Yao advised earnestly.

"Look at me, I'm fine, I'm walking in a straight line," Xu Ruiyi said, "Hey, I'll drive very slowly, don't worry."

Chapter 219: Spirited Little Sister Yu Luying? (Part )

2023-06-01

After walking out of the music bar, the cool and fresh night air hits you in the face.

Xiao Yao couldn't help but take a deep breath, hoping to bring a moment of clarity to his alcohol-numbed brain, but it ended up triggering a violent coughing fit.

"What are you doing? Are you asthmatic?" Tang Xuewei patted him and affectionately put her elbow on Xiao Yao's left shoulder.

Want to go back to your old love now? It's too late.

Xiao Yao sneered secretly in his heart, and calmly pushed Tang Xuewei's hand away from his body, saying calmly: "No, it's too stuffy inside, the air outside is better."

Originally, according to Lao Tang and Lao Tang, they wanted to go to the dance hall, but Xiao Yao objected, saying that the outdoor air was good and would help sober up. So the four of them walked four or five hundred meters along the sidewalk beside the green belt and came to the open-air dance floor near Dongru County Experimental Primary School.

This open-air dance floor is free of charge and is purely for public benefit. It is actually a descending platform near the artificial lake in the county party committee compound. In summer, there are always people who come here with a few large floor-standing speakers to play dance music. Well, it is essentially square dancing.

However, the main dance performed in this square is couple dance. The general pattern of dance music is that after 2-3 ballroom dance songs, there will be a passionate square dance, such as "Love Treaty".

As a spontaneous non-commercial behavior of the townspeople, this has actually brought about some business opportunities: some sell soda and cold drinks, some sell glow sticks, some sell balloons, some sell glowing headdresses, and some even sell shoes for children that sparkle when they run.

As an aside, Xiao Yao actually heard the term "square dance" only after he went to Shanghai, because the people of Dongru call this "group dance", which proves that the people in small towns are more collectivist.

In any case, this open-air dance floor is truly suitable for all ages. From old men and women, uncles and aunts, to junior high and high school students, and even younger children, you can find them all here - in essence, this is actually a public summer place for townspeople.

When Tang Xuewei and her group of four arrived, it was time for the "group dance". She excitedly grabbed Lao Tang with one hand and Xiao Yao with the other, rushed into the dance floor, and found three vacant seats in the neat formation that looked like radio gymnastics.

The reason why there were three was because Yu Luying refused to join in. She smiled, shook her head, rejected Tang Xuewei's hard pull and instigation, and just leaned on the railing by the lake and said, "I'll take pictures of you all."

Xiao Yao suddenly remembered that in Yu Bo's catechism class, the old almanac from 1912 said "excessive indulgence in dancing is a sin". He also remembered that last night on the balcony, Yu Luying expressed a similar view to him that "dancing in public is shameful", so he spoke out to stop Tang Xuewei and told her not to force her.

"Follow me and start reciting the first love agreement. I will be happy to accept all errands, be her driver, be her courier, and also be her ATM."

Tang Xuewei seemed to be an expert at this, which reminded Xiao Yao of Shen Tianyun. He began to follow Tang Xuewei in raising his hands, kicking, clapping, and spinning in circles. Although his movements were not very standard, he was just doing it for fun.

Xiao Yao felt that dancing occasionally was quite fun, at least it was lively and a crowd pleaser. However, Shen Tianyun's enthusiasm was still hard to understand. But when it came to hobbies, there was no need to force understanding.

"Follow me and recite the second part of the love agreement. Tell a white lie without blinking. She is good in every way and beautiful in every way. Then swear to love her forever without regrets."

Xiao Yao suddenly realized that the fun of square dancing does not lie in the dancing itself, but is essentially a social activity.

Since this activity is very popular in 2034, my daughter regards it as a major social activity with her classmates and friends, so it is understandable why she is so enthusiastic about it.

Thinking about the first night before he left Shanghai, when Shen Tianyun inexplicably said to him "They don't want me anymore, they all don't want me anymore", Xiao Yao felt a deep sense of uneasiness in his heart, and secretly decided that after returning to Shanghai, he would find his daughter and ask her clearly.

"When you are together, remember to let her confuse right and wrong. When you are right, pretend that you are late to realize it. Let her nag and complain, and spoil her heart so that she will be as soft as water, and between reality and illusion, she will feel like she is in heaven..."

Xiao Yao suddenly felt a strong aversion and disgust towards the lyrics of this song.

In fact, he knew how to sing this song in elementary school, and he also skipped this part in junior high school. At that time, he didn't think about it too much and didn't think it was a problem.

But today, isn't this what Shen Tianyun called a "turtle man" or a "suck-up man" in his time?

As a popular aesthetic culture, what kind of values ​​is it instilling in men?

When he thought about his own generation, especially Xiao Yao himself, who had been poisoned by this kind of culturally oriented thinking and had taken many detours, the young man developed an irresistible physiological nausea and wanted to smash the speaker with one punch.

Damn it… I won’t jump anymore. Xiao Yao waved his hands and walked towards the railing by the lake where Yu Luying was leaning.

No, wait, why is the little apple man missing again?

After turning around a few times and searching everywhere, Little Apple finished her dance and finally ran over with... a pair of glowing, long rabbit ears in her hand.

Ah, Yamete Yamete.

Little Apple ran up to Xiao Yao, and without caring whether Xiao Yao was happy or not, she put the glowing rabbit ears on Xiao Yao with her heels two centimeters off the ground.

"Cute," Little Apple clapped her hands and smiled, "Big bunny."

Xiao Yao cooperated with her by sticking out his upper front teeth and pressing them against the bottom of his lips.

Tang Jiaxin and Tang Xuewei also came over at this time, praising the rabbit ears for being quite in line with Xiao Yao's temperament.
