You are my wife, don't doubt it!

I told him about the dream I had been having frequently over the past month.

"Empowerment, closed loop, gripper? What are those?" Father Yu sniffed in confusion after hearing this.

"This is not the point! Isn't the point that I went out with Shen Jie in the future and then was hit to death by a truck driver?" Xiao Yao shouted.

"So? Wasn't it just a dream?" Father Yu shrugged.

"No," Xiao Yao said angrily and amusedly, "I did it at least three times a month, if not four times."

"That's normal. What do you want to say? Is this the tragic future God has revealed to you?" Father Yu laughed and said, "You think too much. God is not as free as I am."

"Uh……"

"Forget it. I'll be patient and explain it to you." Father Yu sat up straight. "What you think about during the day, you will dream about at night. You have this kind of dream mainly because of your anxiety."

"anxiety?"

"Dreams are reactions of the subconscious mind, representing the tortuous realization of real wishes. You are interested in Xiao Shen, but you feel that you are not worthy of her. Your desires and anxieties are intertwined and distorted into this kind of dream..." Father Yu talked freely.

"If I want to hear you say this, why don't I go to the school's psychology teacher?" Xiao Yao couldn't help but complain: "You talk like a materialist."

"what!"

Father Yu still didn't know about the mirror in his home, and that Shen Jie was his future wife. Xiao Yao didn't know how to tell him: "I was wondering if this is also related to the temple... Isn't the temple also a world of inner desires..."

"Speaking of this," Father Yu interrupted him with a playful look in his eyes: "You are going to go to the movies with Yingying tomorrow, right?"

"How do you know—" Xiao Yao swallowed the rest of the sentence, wondering why Yu Luying told her uncle everything: "Yes, it's true."

"Which one do you like?" Father Yu held up his left and right index fingers: "Xiao Shen, or our Yingying?"

"..." Xiao Yao closed his mouth tightly.

"Heh." Old Yu put on a mocking expression, but Xiao Yao could feel that he was not very happy.

If it was Xiao Yao ten years later, or five years later, he should know that people with girlfriends should not easily eat or watch movies alone with other friends of the opposite sex. This is the most basic way to avoid suspicion.

However, in 2004, the 15-year-old boy was too naive to have this concept in his mind, because no one had ever taught him this: "It was just a movie watched by classmates and friends, mainly because I saved her. No one said that a girl must marry the person who saved her life."

"It's good that you know," Father Yu stood up and ordered everyone to leave: "I won't keep you here for dinner."

--split line--

Xiao Yao returned home, had dinner with his grandmother, and called Shen Jie on the home phone.

"Hello?" Shen Jie's clear and sweet voice dispelled some of the boredom in his heart.

"Wife." Xiao Yao called out with confidence.

The other party was stunned for half a second: "Huh? What's the matter? Are you home?"

"Wait a minute, hello? Hello? The signal is not very good. Let me call you back."

Shen Jie hung up the phone, and a few seconds later, Xiao Yao's landline rang.

"Hello? Saning?" When Xiao Yao picked up the phone, he heard his grandmother's voice.

"Grandma, it's me, Shen Jie."

"Oh-oh-oh-oh, you guys chat, you guys chat." Grandma hung up the phone in a panic.

"Wife." Xiao Yao called out again bravely.

"What is it?"

"Can't I call you if everything is fine?" Xiao Yao asked back.

The girl laughed on the other end of the phone: "I didn't say no. Is Shen Tianyun back today?"

"I'm back." Xiao Yao glanced at the door of the closet: "She locked the door on her side and wouldn't let me go in. She also told me to get out."

"Are you still in a bad mood?" Shen Jie was a little surprised.

"Yes, why don't you learn some parenting experience from your Queen Mary."

"It would be nice if she had a son." Shen Jie said in a sad tone, "And she still says she's good at history?"

"Uh……"

"Next time I come over to deal with her, she will behave herself."

"Yes, come here quickly, I can't control her anymore." Xiao Yao grinned.

"...I think you are the dishonest one?" Shen Jie seemed to have realized something.

"No, I'm telling the truth." Xiao Yao said coquettishly, "Come on."

"No," Shen Jie refused, "My parents are at home. Besides, if I go to your house every day, won't your grandma look down on me?"

"Oh~~~" Xiao Yao dragged out the sound and reached out to fiddle with the plastic basket beside the sofa: "I washed all the socks for you, and was thinking that you could come over and take them back."

Actually, I didn't wash it.

"What socks?" Shen Jie was stunned.

"Just the ones you stuffed into my pocket at the park, and the ones you gave me at the skating rink."

"You still have it?" Shen Jie laughed again: "The ones on the skating rink are disposable. I asked you to help me throw them away, and you still..."

"That's yours, I can't bear to throw it away." Xiao Yao held the thin silk stockings in his left hand.

"When did you become so disgusting?" Shen Jie said angrily.

Xiao Yao felt his body getting a little hot, so he changed his sitting position: "The hollowed-out pair you wore yesterday were also very cute."

"Okay, so you keep glancing at my feet? I didn't realize you had this hobby?"

“Actually, there is no…”

"Okay, I got it," Shen Jie said in a mysterious tone, "Next time I come over, I'll put it in a plastic bag and give it to you."

Is it really possible?!

"Really?" Xiao Yao said, "Thank you for your help."

In fact, Shen Jie just wanted to tease him by saying this, but she never expected that this man would be so shameless. Her brain was a little confused for a moment.

"Uh, I was just kidding you." Xiao Yao realized that the atmosphere on the other side was a little subtle and backed off.

"Yeah, me too." Shen Jie said.

The two of them fell into silence on the phone, which lasted for about dozens of seconds, and the awkward atmosphere was about to overflow from the receiver.

"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll just..." Shen Jie spoke hesitantly.

"Wife, something happened at school." Xiao Yao finally remembered the original reason why he called: "Teacher Yao."

"what happened?"

Xiao Yao told the whole story of what happened at school today.

"How could this happen..." Shen Jie was also greatly shocked, and murmured, "How could this happen..."

"I'm completely dumbfounded," Xiao Yao swallowed hard, "I had no idea things would turn out like this. Did we do something wrong?"

"Hmm..." Shen Jie pondered.

"The other students in the class all praised Teacher Yao before, but now they all look like they are gloating over someone else's misfortune. It reminds me of an idiom: When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down."

"I...understand how you feel." Shen Jie whispered softly.

"Xiong Ji still thinks that Teacher Yao deserves what he got for his crime, and that this is justice..."

"Hmm..." Shen Jie's tone was uncertain.

"Teacher Yao, no matter how many dirty thoughts he has in his heart, as long as he does not put them into practice, he is innocent. He should not be judged by either law or morality," said Xiao Yao.

"Let's not talk about this anymore?" Shen Jie was silent for a while and then spoke.

What a pity! It seems that my lover doesn’t quite agree with my point of view.

"But you don't have to blame yourself too much," Shen Jie thought for a moment and comforted him, "After all, you went in to save people, not to harm Teacher Yao, and you finally saved them. You couldn't have foreseen this happening."

"I don't think this is a coincidence. There may be a mastermind behind all this, and we have to find him," said Xiao Yao.

"Yeah." Shen Jie said.

Otherwise, who knows if there will be another unlucky person? Will it be me? Xiao Yao thought.

Just now, Father Yu also said "next time".

Without his knowledge, his desires and evil thoughts were materialized, and his shadow was separated from his body and came to the real world to do bad things.

Then they were brainwashed, made public confessions, told all their inner secrets, and then died socially...

No one can withstand such a trial. This is not only killing people but also destroying their hearts.

Xiao Yao felt a chill.

"When Zhou Qi wakes up, let's go to the hospital and ask her." Shen Jie suggested: "Didn't she take the initiative to enter Teacher Yao's hall? Does she know something?"

"Yes, why didn't I think of it!" Xiao Yao said happily.

"Because you are stupid."

"After talking to you, I feel much better." Xiao Yao said, "Thank you, honey."

A woman who can still firmly support him even if their opinions are not completely consistent... Maybe this is called a "wife", Xiao Yao thought.

"Yeah." Shen Jie responded softly.

"By the way...what movies are there recently?" Xiao Yao felt that it was time to steer the topic in a more relaxed direction, as he didn't even know what movie he was going to watch tomorrow.

"Hmm? Troy? Let me see..." Shen Jie's voice went from near to far, and then from far to near: "I happen to have a newspaper on hand. "Mysterious Loyal Soul", "Troy", "Twilight Seibei", "Beautiful Magic City", "Candlelight", "Sanmao Saves the Fox", that's all."

"What's the story of Sanmao saving the fox? Save me."

“Ah, right, right…save the orphan. I read it wrong.” Another heart-shaking laugh broke out from the other end of the phone: “Save the fox…the fox…hahahahahahahahahahahahaha…”

“Hahahahahaha.” Xiao Yao also laughed along with her while holding the phone: “My wife is so cute.”

The laughter from the other side could not stop. Xiao Yao said to himself: "Beautiful Magic City sounds good. Is it a love movie in the local dialect?"

"Oh, what's so good about that? It's just a cheesy art film. Let's go watch Troy," said Shen Jie.

"Shall we... go and see?" Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment.

"Didn't you want to ask me to see a movie?" Shen Jie's tone sounded a little strange.

"Emmmmm..." Xiao Yao said quickly: "Of course...Yes, Troy is Troy, I will do whatever you say."

Chapter 74 Six Yuan Spicy Hot Pot

2023-01-08

Just like that, Xiao Yao inexplicably made an appointment with Shen Jie to go to the Dark Cinema to watch a movie on Sunday afternoon, and to accompany her to the mall.

"Sunday is good, I have final exams on Thursday, Friday and Saturday." Shen Jie said.

"So early? We have the exam next week." Xiao Yao was a little surprised.

"It's good to take the test later. I can have a few more days to review."

"Take the exam early and have the holiday early."

"Why don't you wait until you finish the exam before you take it?" Shen Jie said after thinking for a while.

"It doesn't matter, I'm steady, steady." Xiao Yao said quickly.

"Really?" the girl asked suspiciously.

"By the way, please accompany me to the museum. I have wanted to go there for a long time."

"Okay, I'll take a look...I'll be ready in the morning." Shen Jie agreed readily.

"It should be open in the morning."

The atmosphere naturally and inexplicably became lively, and before we knew it we had been chatting for more than two hours.

Xiao Yao moved the receiver from his left ear to his right ear, and then from his right ear to his left ear, until both ears were burning hot.

Xiao Yao felt very comfortable, but at the same time, a lingering sense of uneasiness always lingered in his heart.

After all, he and Shen Jie had been getting along fine before, but she was always hot and cold towards him, and even gave him the nice guy card not long ago.

Now, all of a sudden, the relationship between the two (seems) to have taken a big step closer. Why is this?
