“In order to win the heart of the rough – looking guy working on the construction site, I deliberately went there to sell lunch boxes.”
The rough – looking guy asked me, “Why do you come out to do this?”
I sighed, “My family is poor. How about you?”
He also sighed, “Same here.”
We felt a mutual sympathy for each other.
Later, my father forced me to attend the birthday party of the young master of the Beijing circle.
My father persuaded me, “It’s better to curry favor with the young master than to hang out with that wild guy.”
But when I looked at the young master’s face, which was exactly the same as that of the wild guy, I was lost in thought.
I asked, “Do you have a twin brother who is living out there?”
He smiled, “I’m the only child in my family.”
The next second, he gracefully crossed his legs, “Sorry, it’s a bit hard to change.”
I was like, “???”
1
I had a crush on the rough – looking guy who was working on the school construction site, and I even found out his name.
My best friend criticized me, “You’re really desperate.
As the young lady of the Lu Group, you actually fall for a rough – looking guy. You must have read too many novels and messed up your mind.”
Later, I took her to secretly watch Su Cheng.
He was tall, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and an inverted triangle figure. He faintly had eight – pack abs.
Especially his face, it was amazing.
With well – defined features, a high – bridged nose, delicate facial features, and a charming bronze – colored skin, he looked healthy and strong.
Rough.
But rough in an exquisite way.
She said again, “Damn, no wonder you lost your mind. He’s much more handsome than those pretty – boy and tough – guy types I’ve dated.”
Then she helped me set up a stand to sell delicious boxed lunches.
Su Cheng was indeed attracted.
He came to my stand to buy a boxed lunch, a bit reserved, “How much is it?”
“Five yuan.” I was afraid it was too expensive for him to afford.
A flash of surprise passed through Su Cheng’s eyes, and then he stretched out three fingers, “Give me three.”
After buying, he squatted by the roadside and started eating. Even his eating posture was handsome.
He also had a big appetite.
I liked him even more.
For several consecutive days, he came to my place to buy boxed lunches.
He would buy three or four boxes each time.
One day, he came again. His forehead was covered with sweat, his white vest was soaked through, and his hair was messy, but it didn’t affect his handsome face at all.
I stared at his face, then at his eight – pack abs under the sweat.
I really couldn’t help but sigh. How could I have found such a handsome guy.
“Boss lady, are you a student here?”
This was the first time Su Cheng took the initiative to talk to me about something else, “I saw you on the scholarship list. Why do you still come out to do this?”
My hand holding the rice spoon trembled, and I quickly smiled and said, “Alas, my family is poor, so I have to do these things to earn money for my studies.”
I took the opportunity to start a conversation, “What about you? Why do you do this?”
“Me too.”
He took a bite of the steamed bun, exuding wildness all over his body. The muscle lines on his hands were hard to ignore.
Later, we added each other on WeChat, and he transferred money to me in advance every day.
Normally, I would go to class, sell boxed lunches, and watch Su Cheng eat and work.
Poor Su Cheng did too much physical work. Every time he ate, he gobbled it up as if he could never get enough.
I took out a lot of steamed buns and put them in his boxed lunch with pity. Before I could think, I said, “I really want to take care of you.”
Fortunately, a large truck passed by us.
“What did you say?” He looked up at me in confusion.
“Oh, I said there are more if you want.”
I had never been so cowardly when trying to court a man!
But Su Cheng was so pure, and I didn’t want to insult him with money.
However, not long after, more and more people set up boxed – lunch stands near the construction site. Some even launched one – yuan boxed lunches, which were cheaper than mine.
My best friend Hu Yue was angry and laughed, “He’s really popular. You have to find a way to court him quickly, or he’ll be snatched away by the one – yuan boxed lunch!”
What my best friend said made sense.
So that night, I sent him a message.
“Su Cheng, where do you live? Wuwu, I don’t have money to pay the dormitory fee. Can I live with you?”
2
Less than three minutes after sending it.
I always felt it was too abrupt. I usually chatted with him on WeChat about everything, but suddenly suggesting to move in together.
What if he refused?
I struggled countless times in my heart, and then I withdrew the message.
The next second, he replied, “Okay.”
I quickly tried to make up for it and edited another message, “Su Cheng, where do you live? Wuwu, I don’t have money to pay the dormitory fee. Can I live with you? I can give you some money.”
He replied instantly, “I’ll come pick you up.”
I spent a few minutes packing my things and then moved into Su Cheng’s migrant – worker room.
The room of about ten square meters was crowded and small, but fortunately, it was clean.
“My place is a bit crowded, right? If you don’t like it, we can change to a bigger one.”
He reached out and scratched his head, as if thinking about how to change to a bigger house.
“No, no, I like it a bit crowded.”
Hu Yue was right. Being close at hand gives one the first chance. Moving in was the right thing to do.
I got to know Su Cheng better. For example, he liked reading books, was very clean, and there was always a set of extremely clean white shirts in his wardrobe.
There was even a suit.
He actually had a suit!
Su Cheng blushed and replied to me, “Sometimes the contractor asks me to go with him to discuss the project, and I have to wear one.”
What an innocent Su Cheng.
I liked him so much.
He even offered to cook me delicious food every night. The small room was filled with the smell of daily life.
But Su Cheng couldn’t cook. He almost blew up the kitchen.
He scratched his head and blushed, “Sorry, I’m usually busy on the construction site all day and have no time to study recipes.”
“It’s okay. From now on, the food is on me!”
This was something I could solve by buying some boxed lunches.
“Okay, then I’ll trouble you.” He smiled at me.
With his rough yet exquisite face and muscles, he almost made me faint.
That night, in order to live with him for a long time.
I offered to give him some rent.
But Su Cheng frowned and looked at me, “No, I don’t want money. Just want you.”
“Ah?”
So fast? He was already saying I could have him?
I blushed.
Su Cheng quickly scratched his head, “I’m not good at talking. I mean I can give it to you.”
Oh.
So he liked to take the initiative.
“Don’t you like it? Did I say something wrong?”
Seeing me silent, Su Cheng became nervous, “But I just want to give it to you.”
I smiled shyly, “Okay.”
My purpose of coming here was to win him over.
The next second.
He handed me a salary card with both hands, “Here it is. From now on, please help me manage the money. There will be twenty thousand yuan every month.”
Okay, okay.
He said he gave it all to me, but it turned out he just wanted me to manage his money!
“You’re a college student and know how to manage finances. You also need money. This money is considered as my support for your studies.”
Su Cheng looked at me with sincere eyes.
The smile on my face froze, and my hands trembled, “You’re giving too much.”
Those male models I liked before only loved my money. This was the first time I received money from a man.
I felt a bit guilty and sinful.
“It’s not much.”
Su Cheng scratched his head embarrassedly, “We who work on the construction site can earn a lot if we’re willing to endure hardship.”
“Since you’ve given the money.” I summoned up my courage, “Then you can’t suffer either. I’ll be your girlfriend!”
This time, it was Su Cheng’s turn to be stunned.
But as expected of a rough – looking guy.
He was straightforward, “Okay,Just I don’t have a girlfriend.”
I never expected.
On the first day I moved in, I got out of the single state!
3
From that day on, Su Cheng and I started a sweet life.
But although he was straightforward, he was a real gentleman.
Every morning, he would send me to school and watch me enter the teaching building before going to work on the construction site.
In the evening, after work, he wouldn’t go home. Instead, he would wait for me to finish evening self – study and then pick me up.
On weekends, he was rarely at home. Occasionally, he would come back for lunch and then rush to work again.
No wonder he could earn money. He really endured hardship.
One day.
Hu Yue called me, “You’ve been together with Su Cheng for a while. Have you slept with him?”
“A good man needs time and effort. It’s not that easy.”
Su Cheng was really a gentleman. Even when we were in the same room, his eyes were very clear.
I once suspected whether it was because I had no charm or he was not interested.
“Too slow. You don’t know how popular he is on the campus forum now.”
Hu Yue sent me several screenshots in a row, “Take a look for yourself. The one who sold one – yuan boxed lunches at the school gate last time was the school beauty! She’s been hanging around the construction site recently.
Aren’t you sworn enemies with her?
She keeps calling him ‘brother’. And the school beauty is good – looking and rich. If I were him, I’d be tempted too!”
The photos showed that the school beauty not only attentively gave water to the workers on the construction site but also started distributing free lunches.
My relationship with the school beauty Shu Qing was indeed not good.
She was the school beauty.
I was the top student, always ranking first in the school.
But every time Shu Qing saw me, she would mock me, “What’s the use of studying well? You’re not as good – looking as me.”
I would also retort, “Can good looks be eaten? I’m afraid your brain will starve you to death in the future!”
The whole school knew our relationship was bad.
She even once boasted, “Lu Nian, if you have the ability, don’t find a boyfriend in the future. Otherwise, he will definitely be attracted by my beauty and leave with me!”
I also retorted, “If my boyfriend runs away with you, he must have a bad brain!”
I suddenly thought of Su Cheng’s brain.
He wasn’t stupid, right?
But he seemed a bit simple – minded.
Hu Yue was still urging me on the phone, “Pay attention. I sent you a package. Don’t let me down.”
The package arrived.
Su Cheng picked it up.
I opened it.
It was a set of embarrassing lingerie.
“Is this the clothes your best friend sent you?” He frowned and looked serious, “Why did she send you a tattered one?”
The next second, he looked at me with curious eyes.
Fine.
I smiled bitterly and rubbed my forehead.
He didn’t even understand embarrassing lingerie. How could he betray me and be with Shu Qing?
“I don’t know. Maybe the merchant sent the wrong item.” I grabbed it and threw the clothes into the trash can.
Before that, I couldn’t let Su Cheng know that I often hung out in bars with Hu Yue and knew too much!
But Shu Qing’s one – yuan boxed lunch.
I had to find out more about it.
The next morning.
I specifically went to the construction site to watch Su Cheng work. I prepared a towel, a water cup, and clean clothes for him.
And I also wanted to see where the legendary school beauty Shu Qing was.
But I didn’t see Shu Qing.
But I saw Su Cheng at a glance.
He stood in the crowd, wearing a safety helmet, looking serious and pointing at the building as if getting angry.
He was still holding the blueprint in his hand.
He also saw me. His serious face with well – defined features immediately showed a naive smile, and he ran towards me, “Why are you here?”
I came to supervise, but I didn’t say it.
“I’m afraid you’re too tired, so I came to see you as soon as I finished class.”
Seeing his sweating head, I couldn’t help but wipe his forehead with a tissue, “Were you scolding them just now? Did you become a leader?”
Several classmates passed by the roadside from time to time, but Su Cheng could be noticed at a glance wherever he was.
His temperament and appearance really looked like a leader.
“No, I just became a team leader. There was a problem with the construction on the site just now, and I was pointing it out to them.”
He took off his safety helmet, skillfully and naturally took the water in my hand, and poured it on his head.
The water droplets flowed down his hair, to his Adam’s apple, and finally into his vest.
So damn handsome.
But just as my heart was pounding!
Shu Qing came.
4
“Brother ~”
Shu Qing’s coquettish voice came from the crowd. She was holding water, a towel, and even a suit.
I was so angry.
Just a few days away, and Shu Qing was already calling him ‘brother’?
“Brother, you’re tired, right? Hurry up and wipe your sweat. Change your clothes.”
Shu Qing was holding the clothes, wearing makeup and a small skirt, looking good and delicate.
I was even angrier. In order to fit the persona of not being able to afford the dormitory fee, I didn’t even bother to put on makeup. I was wearing a plain face every day, along with the simplest T – shirt and denim shorts. At this moment, I seemed to be at a disadvantage.
“I – “
“Brother ~”
Before Su Cheng could say anything, I imitated her in a coquettish voice and leaned close to him, “Brother ~ You’d better wipe your sweat with mine. What’s the point of wearing a suit? A vest is more suitable. It’s too hot today ~”
Shu Qing: “…”
Su Cheng: “…”
Both of them turned their eyes towards me in unison.
“What’s wrong, brother? Are you about to get sun – dizzy? Then let’s go home. I’ll give you a massage after we get back.”
I blinked my big eyes and took the initiative to hold Su Cheng’s hand. His body visibly stiffened.
It’s embarrassing to say, but this was the first time I had such an intimate interaction with Su Cheng. But the brave ones get to enjoy love first!
“You… are you living together?” Shu Qing asked, her eyes wide with disbelief as she stared at me.
“Yes. I forgot to tell you. Su Cheng is my boyfriend.”
I leaned my head on his shoulder, “The kind that’s officially announced, the kind that will get married in the future!”
Shu Qing was stunned.
She opened her mouth but couldn’t say a word.
Su Cheng also nodded, “Yes, we’ve given ourselves to each other.”
How could he say such things?!
“I’ve given her everything I have. It’s quite a lot,” he replied instantly, “but it’s not enough. I’ll give her more in the future.”
Not to mention Shu Qing, even I was misled.
How could he say such things with a straight face and make people have wild imaginations? When did we give ourselves to each other!
Shu Qing opened her mouth wider, even more shocked, and slowly said, “I didn’t expect you two to have developed to this stage.”
Su Cheng didn’t respond to her anymore. Instead, he interlocked his fingers with mine and swaggered out of the school.
After getting home.
I said to Su Cheng with a serious face, “Don’t get too close to Shu Qing in the future. I don’t like it.”
“I can’t do that, wife.”
Su Cheng said honestly, “Her father is the investor of our project. He asked me to teach her how to read design drawings. He said she’s always at the bottom of the class.”
That’s true about her being at the bottom of the class.
But does he have any emotional intelligence at all?!
As expected, he’s a rough – looking and straightforward guy. Can’t he even coax me a little bit? No…
“You can actually do architectural design?” I asked, looking at him suspiciously.
“Yes.”
Su Cheng walked to my desk, pointed at my architectural design assignment, and poked it with his finger, “The sports building you designed can be further optimized.”
“Ah?”
I had already shown this design drawing to the teacher, and it was basically a final draft.
“You need to consider the implementation difficulty. For sports buildings, it’s better if you conduct on – site inspections. It will be easier to design a drawing that meets the regulations, is beautiful, and unique. Otherwise, many things may not be implemented properly.”
There was a hint of professionalism in Su Cheng’s seriousness. He was usually naive and cute.
But at this moment.
Both his overall temperament and his way of speaking.
He was exactly like a domineering CEO!
He picked up a pen and casually drew a few lines on my drawing, “Look, this doesn’t destroy your overall design sense, and it’s easier to implement.”
It was really like that.
Su Cheng could spot the problem at a glance!
“You’re amazing. People who don’t know would think you’re a big shot in the industry.”
I exclaimed. Although I was the top student in my major, as a college student, I really lacked the opportunity for on – site inspections.
Hearing this, Su Cheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and scratched his head, “I’ve been on the construction site for a long time, so I know more.”
I stared at Su Cheng, suddenly realizing that apart from his appearance, I knew very little about him.
Suddenly.
A rapid phone ringtone interrupted my stare.
Su Cheng took out his phone, and I saw that it was Shu Qing calling. He put it on speakerphone: “What’s up?”
“Brother, I can’t draw some design drawings. Can you give me some remote guidance ~” Shu Qing’s voice was coquettish.
But Su Cheng’s voice was as deep as a bell, “Sorry, it’s off – work time now. I’m going to do something happy with my wife.”
“…”
The other end of the phone fell silent.
Then the call was hung up.
Good.
Anyway, without me saying anything, Shu Qing had already misunderstood.
5
After the school project ended, Su Cheng became even busier.
He was busy day and night. During the day, he would wear a suit and get into a Bentley, saying he was going to discuss a project. At night, he would come back in a vest, saying he was working on the construction site.
From time to time, he would bring back many beautiful bags and jewelry.
I couldn’t help asking him, “Where did all these come from?”
Su Cheng smiled and said, “The contractor gave them to me and asked me to give them to you. He said you’d look good wearing them.”
What kind of contractor would give LV bags, gold, jade, and pearl necklaces?!
“Su Cheng, are you lying to me?” I felt a faint unease in my heart, “Are you doing something illegal?”
I clearly recognized one of the jade bracelets. It was bright green and shiny.
It was a pair of bracelets that Huo Yu, the young master of the Jing – circle,bid successfully at a charity auction when he was seven years old.
Could he have robbed the Huo family’s things in order to make money?
“I’m an honest person. I don’t do those things. The contractor said they were fake, just for show. If you don’t want them, I’ll return them to the contractor.”
Su Cheng said solemnly, “Don’t worry. I’ll be able to buy you a big house soon!”
“I want them.”
I turned around and took these jade and gold items to be appraised.
It turned out that they were all genuine.
Even the staff at the appraisal center couldn’t help but look at me twice, “These are all very expensive. This round – bar jade bracelet is at least worth over twenty million yuan. You must keep it safe.”
“I remember it was bought by the Huo family in the Jing – circle for collection. Are you the future Mrs. Huo?”
Of course I’m not.
I was just engaged to Huo Yu in a childhood betrothal.
This bracelet was indeed a pair.
One was in the Huo family.
One was in my family.
Now, both were in my hands.
The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I became. I secretly followed Su Cheng to work and found that he walked into the Huo Group’s building in a suit!
I became even more worried.
I wanted to stop him from doing something wrong. As a result, I met my father.
“What are you doing here, girl?”
My father took off my baseball cap and mask, and asked me with a big smile, “Have you thought it through? Do you want to marry Huo Yu?”
“How is that possible? I won’t marry him no matter who I marry!” I immediately retorted.
“Did you forget that I punched him in the right eye when I was six years old?
Did you also forget that when I was eight, I kicked him in the crotch while practicing Muay Thai?”
My father: “Cough cough.”
“Dad, he cried and said he never wanted to see me again in his life. Have you forgotten?”
Huo Yu.
The young master of the Jing – circle.
My childhood playmate and the one I was engaged to in a childhood betrothal.
But after being kicked in the crotch by me, he was accidentally photographed by the media and fled abroad in embarrassment.
It was said that he had just returned recently.
How could I marry a coward!
“Oh, you child…”
I didn’t listen to my father’s nagging. I walked straight towards the Huo Group and saw Su Cheng walking towards the president’s office.
There was definitely something fishy about him!
I took a step forward.
And saw Shu Qing walking in too.
Through the transparent floor – to – ceiling window, Shu Qing was sitting in the main seat of the president’s office, and Su Cheng was standing there talking to her about something.
I was furious.
As the employees of the Huo Group walked past me, I heard envious voices: “So handsome. I’m so envious.”
“How did this girl manage to get close to him?”
“I wish I could too!”
“What are you thinking? Do you know who she is? She’s a socialite in the Jing – circle, currently a sophomore in college. I heard she has some connections with the Huo family in the Jing – circle.”
“Oh! That makes sense. With this girl’s looks and family background, she can get any man she wants!”
“I heard they’ve been looking at houses together recently. Their relationship is very close.”
My heart felt as if a big stone was pressing on it.
I turned around and called Hu Yue, “Wuwu, A Yue, I’m heartbroken!”
Hu Yue quickly asked for the reason and also found out about Shu Qing’s identity.
She was a distant relative of the Huo family. Her family’s wealth was not as substantial as before, but she still had connections with the Huo family.
I told Hu Yue whose bracelet Su Cheng had given me.
So those bags and bracelets were all given to him by Shu Qing!
That night, I waited for Su Cheng to come home.
But not only did he not come back.
He only sent me a text message: “Wife, I have to go on a business trip these days. Don’t miss me too much. I’ll buy you a big house when I come back!”
What big house?!
He probably wanted to replace me!
That night, I packed my things and moved back to the dormitory.
Men are important.
But an unfaithful man is just a passer – by to me!
6
Not two days later.
I saw a photo of Shu Qing and Su Cheng on Shu Qing’s WeChat Moments, with the caption: “My brother.”
I was so angry that I laughed.
Looking at the message Su Cheng sent me: “Wife, why aren’t you answering me? I miss you. I’ll come to you as soon as I’m done with this busy period.”
Miss my ass!
They even had the same accent. And he said he missed me?
I quickly turned off my phone.
On the weekend, I went home.
My father prepared an evening dress for me and earnestly forced me, “Go to the birthday party of the young master of the Jing – circle.
If he still remembers how you bullied him when you were kids, then this marriage won’t happen!”
I thought about it.
In a fit of anger, I went to Huo Yu’s birthday party.
Considering his grandmother’s poor health, Huo Yu specially chose a summer resort for the birthday party.
It was in a different place.
I went.
And specifically took several photos and posted them on my WeChat Moments: “My dad insisted that I meet the little boy I was engaged to in a childhood betrothal. Maybe it’ll work out!”
I wanted to make Su Cheng angry!
Soon.
My phone went crazy.
[“Wife, why are you at the summer resort? Who are you going to meet?
Have you not been answering me for so long because you have a blind – date partner?
Wife, talk to me.”]
There were 3 missed calls.
[“Wife, I’m here too.”]
I couldn’t help it. I looked around. The party was of a high standard. I sent a message: “Why are you here too?”
But as soon as I sent it, I regretted it.
Of course he could be here.
He knew Shu Qing, and Shu Qing could bring him here.
He was definitely a big liar!
Su Cheng: “I’m working as a security guard here part – time.”
I sneered and replied, “Liar, liar. That’s all you know how to do! You seem honest, but you’re not honest at all!”
Actually, I was waiting for an explanation from Su Cheng.
But who knew he directly admitted it: “Sorry, wife. You already know. I was wrong. I’m sorry!”
I said: “It’s too late.”
Su Cheng: “Why? Is this a capital crime? Isn’t this a good thing?”
A good thing?
I misjudged him.
I originally thought he was simple – minded.
Now it seems he’s still living in ancient times, with a feudal mindset. Even after being caught cheating, he still said it was a good thing.
I was so angry that I laughed again, and then I blocked him.
I put down my phone and started drinking heavily.
But I drank too much and seemed to see Su Cheng’s figure.
Wuwu.
I was too slow. I should have gotten his eight – pack abs first!
Otherwise, I wouldn’t be so unwilling now. I even saw someone who looked like Su Cheng.
Not long after.
My father blocked my sight.
He said, “You’d better spend your time currying favor with the young master of the Jing – circle instead of hanging out with that wild guy! Come on, Huo Yu is here. Go meet him with me now!”
Who wants to curry favor with him?
I laughed out loud, “Huo Yu is a coward. He would run away as soon as he saw me when we were kids. Who wants to curry favor with him?”
As soon as I finished speaking.
A group of men in suits came over.
The next second.
The man in the middle spoke in a deep voice, “Mr. Lu, I heard you were looking for me.”
My father blocked my sight.
I couldn’t see Huo Yu.
But I knew he had heard what I said.
“Yes, yes, it’s my daughter, Erya, who is looking for you.”
Erya was my childhood nickname.
My father turned around, and his attitude became much better, “You two played together when you were kids.”
“Oh, Erya.”
Huo Yu’s tone was meaningful, mocking my childhood nickname, and he chuckled, “I told my grandmother that I won’t marry her no matter who I marry.
Besides, I have a girlfriend, and I’m going to find her now.”
I said: “?”
In a fit of anger, I pushed my father aside and also laughed out loud, “
Coincidentally, I won’t marry you no matter who I marry!”
Hmm?
What’s going on?
Is this Huo Yu?
Why does Su Cheng’s face grow on Huo Yu’s body?
I must have drunk too much.
The Huo Yu in front of me was also stunned. He frowned and looked me up and down from head to toe. It took him a long time to raise his voice and ask.
“Wife???”
Everyone present.
Shocked, they all turned their heads back.
7
In the private room.
Su Cheng and I were sitting opposite each other. My father sat beside me, looking nervous.
For a long time, neither of us spoke.
My father couldn’t help it. “You two should be unfamiliar, right? Let me introduce you properly. This is my daughter, Erya, whose formal name is Lu Nian.
This is Huo Yu, the young master of the Jing – circle.”
How could Huo Yu be Su Cheng!
I frowned and asked, “Do you have a twin brother who is out there?”
Hearing this, Huo Yu laughed. “I’m an only child.”
The next second, he gracefully crossed his legs. “Sorry, I can’t seem to change my ways.”
I said, “…”
Well, it was Su Cheng.
My father excitedly started talking at the side. “Girl, what nonsense are you talking! Huo Yu changed his name. Now he’s called Su Cheng.”
Once he started talking, he couldn’t stop.
“It’s all because of you. You kicked him in the crotch when you were kids, and it made the headlines!”
My father got more and more excited. “He changed his name overnight, even his surname.”
I said, “?”
Su Cheng said, “!”
Because I was weak since childhood and didn’t cry when I was born, my father gave me the name “Erya” to make it easier to raise me.
When I grew up a bit, I was sent to learn Muay Thai.
The same was true for Su Cheng.
His body was even weaker than mine, and he was isolated and bullied in primary school.
The kick I gave him was during a sparring session between us arranged by the training institution’s teacher.
It was just caught on camera by the media who came to shoot a promotional video and was put on the Internet.
Su Cheng immediately rolled on the ground.
Crying with red eyes.
That video spread, and according to my father, he couldn’t stay in school anymore and chose to go abroad.
Thinking of Su Cheng’s strong body.
I thought.
He must have trained very hard abroad.
My father spoke again, trying to break the awkward atmosphere between us. “Niannian, that kick of yours back then directly made Huo Yu lose interest in women!
He didn’t date a single girlfriend abroad and even had a cleanliness obsession! The old lady was so worried that she almost thought he didn’t like men either.”
Su Cheng’s face turned red instantly.
His crossed legs showed a hint of unease. He coughed softly. “Uncle Lu, these are all rumors.”
“Yes, yes. Look at how close you two are now, even calling her ‘wife’.
My father couldn’t help but sigh. “This is fate. After all these twists and turns, it’s still you two!”
My father was really good at matchmaking.
That night, Su Cheng offered to send me home.
The drive was five hundred kilometers.
Throughout the journey, neither of us could say a word. I was dizzy from drinking and leaned against the car window, speechless.
“Are you angry with me?”
Su Cheng probe carefully.
I wanted to say no, but I felt a bit nauseous.
“Niannian, I didn’t mean to lie to you. “
He was driving, muttering. “I deliberately went to the construction site to get to know you.”
Should he listen to what he’s saying?
Not unintentionally, but intentionally, right?
“Actually, what Uncle Lu said isn’t a rumor. “
Seeing that I didn’t speak, he continued. “I really haven’t been in a relationship. I have a cleanliness obsession, and you’re the first woman I’ve ever liked. I’m very interested in you.”
“Ugh.”
I really couldn’t hold it in. I turned my head and vomited on his crotch.
His car just rushed off the highway.
He looked at me stiffly. “Niannian, do you think I’m disgusting?”
“Yes, I feel a bit disgusted.”
The faster I drank the wine just now, the more disgusted I felt now.
I vomited a few more times.
Feeling a bit better, I looked up and saw Su Cheng. His eyes were filled with tears.
Before he could cry.
It started pouring heavily outside.
He found a hotel and booked a room. We stayed there first.
At the hotel, Su Cheng bought medicine and pants, and then asked me, “Niannian, can I take off my pants?”
“If you want to, then take them off.”
Fine. Even though he was the young master of the Jing – circle now, his words were still quite misleading.
He took off his pants in a second.
Then I vomited several more times.
Su Cheng, with his bare thighs, gently patted my back. “If you can’t drink, drink less. You can’t drink at all in the future.”
I turned my head to complain, but then I saw his big underpants.
Quite…
Big?
“Niannian, what are you looking at? Are you still not feeling well?”
He patted my back even harder. “What can I do for you? Should I take you to the hospital?”
I rinsed my mouth.
Su Cheng kept talking. “Niannian, it’s all my fault. You can punish me however you want.”
It was too noisy.
I stood on tiptoe and covered his mouth. As soon as I let go.
He said again, “Niannian, you – “
I covered it again.
The world was quiet.
I let go again, and he started talking, “Niannian, actually I – “
Better cover it again.
After three minutes, just as I was about to take my mouth away, Su Cheng held the back of my head and deepened the kiss.

I was kissed until I was short of oxygen.
My hands flailed around randomly. With a wave, I hit him right in the crotch.
“Why are you hitting me again?”
His breathing was rapid, and he let out a deep sigh in my ear. “It’s the same place again. Lu Nian, do you have some obsession with my crotch?”
I was also gasping for breath.
Why was it so tiring to kiss him?
“No…”
I explained in a panic. After taking two breaths, just as I was about to breathe, I lost my balance and fell towards the ground.
Fortunately, Su Cheng reacted faster.
He grabbed me, and we both fell to the ground.
Fine.
I was pinned down by him.
Instantly, I felt like there was a mountain on me, and I couldn’t breathe even more. “You, you, I think you did it on purpose! You just want to suffocate me!”
My hands groped around randomly again, trying to push him away.
Who knew I touched something hard.
Oh.
It was his eight – pack abs.
I actually touched Su Cheng’s eight – pack abs!
Before, when I was in the rental house with him, I didn’t dare to touch anything, didn’t dare to be proactive, for fear of scaring the innocent Su Cheng away.
Now it seemed that I was clearly at a disadvantage.
Taking advantage of the alcohol, I gave them a good feel.
Su Cheng gasped. “What are you doing?”
“I think… your eight – pack abs are just so – so.”
I pulled up my clothes, revealing my abs. “Touch mine. I’ve trained better.”
“…”
Su Cheng’s face turned red and then black. His big palm was hot as it touched mine, and he started stuttering. “Okay, okay, really good.”
So good that it got out of control.
In the heat of the moment.
He asked me in the dim light, “Why did you put on that tattered – looking clothes?”
The next second, he blushed. “Oh, so this is how it’s used.”
Before I left, Hu Yue gave me another one. She earnestly said, “What if you meet Shu Qing at the birthday party? Given her relationship with the young master of the Jing – circle, she might bring Su Cheng with her.
If you meet Su Cheng, this clothes will definitely come in handy. We can’t lose!”
As she wished.
The clothes were really used.
But Su Cheng was so clumsy.
He didn’t know anything and needed me to teach him.
“Sorry, sorry, I’m so stupid.” He apologized while sighing. “But how do you know everything?”
“Haven’t you seen a pig run if you haven’t eaten pork?”
I was so angry with him.
“I was abroad, either studying or working. This is my first time experiencing this.”
He said pitifully, “Niannian, you’ll be responsible for me, right?”
Why was he so talkative all night?
Like a Tang Monk.
Early the next morning.
I was woken up by a phone ringtone.
I was sore all over, but Su Cheng’s eyes were shining, and his voice was full of excitement. He picked up the phone and put it on speaker.
Shu Qing’s voice came from the other end of the phone again. “Brother, why did you leave the birthday party so early? I couldn’t reach you all night yesterday.”
“Your brother took care of me all night. He was exhausted.” I said for Su Cheng.
But unexpectedly, Su Cheng quickly picked up the conversation. “Not tired at all. I can go again.”
“…”
Huh.
He was really rough.
“Then congratulations, brother!” Shu Qing’s voice was excited and high – pitched. “Grandma, did you hear that? Brother has a girlfriend!”
I said, “?”
Then, I heard the voice of the old lady Huo coming from the other end of the phone. “Xiao Yu, quickly bring your girlfriend back for grandma to see.”
Then came my father’s voice. “Old lady, you’ve seen her. It’s my daughter.”
They started discussing the betrothal gifts on the phone.
And then they hung up the phone directly.
I frowned and looked at Su Cheng. “So, what’s your relationship with Shu Qing exactly?”
Why did Shu Qing seem so excited just now?
“Oh, she’s a relative on my grandma’s side, my nominal sister.”
I said, “…”
I suddenly remembered the day I had a dispute with Shu Qing on the construction site. She called Su Cheng “brother”. From Shu Qing’s perspective, she must have been laughing at me!
Wuwu.
So, he was her real brother!
Seeing that I didn’t speak, Su Cheng slowly said, “Xiao Qing also asked me if I really liked you. She said she could help me stir you up, but I don’t understand what she meant.”
“…”
It took me a long time to say, “Then why didn’t you tell me about your relationship with her?”
“I did. Every word I said was the truth!”
Su Cheng said honestly. “Mainly, you didn’t ask.”
It was my fault for not asking.
I was so angry that I sat up and wanted to go to the bathroom to take a shower, but Su Cheng reached out and grabbed me, pulling me into his arms.
He bit my ear, his tone firm. “Don’t be angry. If you’re angry, punish me. Let’s go back to sleep.”
From that day on.
Su Cheng seemed to have opened up his meridians.
Ten times a night.
It was really outrageous.

Su Cheng took me home to meet his parents.
The house was filled with dishes, and there were boxes of cash and stacks of property certificates, all said to be for me.
During the meal, the atmosphere was harmonious.
After the meal, the old lady Huo pulled me aside to talk in private. “Niannian, you used to come to pay New Year’s greetings often when you were a child. But later, because of what happened to Xiao Yu, you never came again.
I always thought this betrothal would be off.”
Not to mention the old lady.
I had long forgotten about the childhood betrothal.
Back then, the incident of Su Cheng being kicked spread throughout the Jing – circle, and even the incident of me almost punching Su Cheng blind with one punch was dug up.
Su Cheng went abroad.
I also didn’t dare to get too close to the Huo family.
“Grandma, I was really violent when I was a child.”
I scratched my head in embarrassment. “I didn’t expect these things to make him afraid to find a girlfriend abroad all these years.”
Hu Yue helped me investigate.
After checking, she laughed so hard that she couldn’t close her mouth. “At first, I didn’t believe he was a construction worker and knew nothing. But after learning about his experience, I found out he was really innocent.”
After going abroad, Su Cheng was all about studying. He skipped grades continuously and was outstanding in every subject.
He almost put all his energy into studying, and then he buried himself in the gym, training hard to develop biceps and eight – pack abs.
After that, it was work. In his spare time, he would lift weights.
There were also many girls who chased Su Cheng.
But he firmly rejected them, saying he didn’t like women.
No wonder the old lady Huo believed it.
“What does this have to do with you? He’s just too fragile. I even have a video of Xiao Yu being beaten by you when he was a child.”
Saying this.
The old lady Huo turned on the TV.
On the screen, Su Cheng came back from the training institution, covering his crotch with one hand and wiping his tears with the other.
He burst into tears, his voice still fierce. “Woo, I don’t want to see Erya again! She’s too wild!
I hate her.”
Someone made fun of his childhood betrothal.
Little Su Cheng pouted. “Who wants to marry her! Wah! I won’t get married in the future! Anyway, my little chicken is gone!”
I couldn’t help laughing out loud.
And then, the TV was turned off.
Su Cheng’s face darkened, and he coughed softly. “Grandma, these are all old things. Why are you bringing them up again?”
“Well, you were so cute when you were a kid.”
I reached out and pinched his face, really couldn’t hold back. “Su Cheng, you’re so funny.”
“If you keep doing this, I’ll get angry!” Su Cheng held my hand, looking like he was about to cry.
“I?”
The old lady Huo, hearing his words, suddenly realized. “Oh, recently I always heard him say ‘I’. I thought he went to the construction site to study the project well and get along with the people there.”
“Later, I asked Shu Qing. Only then did I know that he specifically asked the contractor to practice the accent in order to pursue you!”
He practiced the accent with the contractor?
Actually, at first, I felt a bit awkward when I heard Su Cheng’s accent. So he learned it on purpose.
When we were going back at night.
I couldn’t help asking him, “When exactly did you start liking me?”
He said, “The first time was when I saw you on the school honor roll.”
“The second time, it was too hot at the construction site, and someone fainted from heatstroke. You gave him artificial respiration. At that time, I found that you were brave and kind.”
“Then I saw you in a school debate, arguing with a group of people.”
“The fourth time was when you helped a girl out of trouble in an alley. You made a few Muay Thai moves and scared away the hooligans. I didn’t even need to step in.”
“The fifth time was when you sold boxed lunches.”
So he pretended to be a rough – looking construction worker specifically for me and deliberately got close to me?
He wore a suit to work during the day and hung around the construction site in a vest when he was free.
It turns out we both regarded each other as prey!

The car stopped downstairs at the rental house.
Su Cheng looked at me seriously, with a faint smile on his well – defined face. “Actually, the first time I saw you, I felt very familiar. So you’re Erya.”
I frowned and looked at him.
“Su Cheng, do you think you have a masochistic tendency? Liking those who bully you?”
Su Cheng: “…”
He fell silent.
It took a long time for him to say, “Well, you seem to be the same. You always ask me to be more forceful…”
I quickly covered his mouth with my hand. “Forget it. Let’s not hurt each other.”
A week later.
Su Cheng bought the rental house.
He wrote his own name on it.
Then he bought me a villa.
He said, “This is what I promised you.”
I found the family – heirloom bracelet at home. Sure enough, it was a pair with the one Su Cheng gave me.
It turns out that after all the twists and turns.
It was still this pair.
Not long after, I had the rental house renovated.
We could move back in after a year.
That day, Hu Yue called. “I prepared a house – warming gift for you. Check it. It can add some spice to your love.”
Su Cheng picked up the express delivery, and I opened it.
It was a big gift package.
Su Cheng frowned and asked, “What are these things? Why are they all automatic?”
I blushed and threw it into the trash can. “I don’t know. It must be a wrong delivery.”
“Can’t be. The express is addressed to you. I’ll study it.”
Su Cheng really started to study it.
I silently took out my phone and sent a message to Hu Yue: “Don’t send any more! I really don’t need them.”
Hu Yue: “Are you planning to have a baby?”
Hu Yue sent a box of baby – proof bags.
Then who sent these automatic things?
And then, I received a message from Shu Qing: “Sister – in – law, I was wrong before! I’m sorry! I sent you some things as an apology!”
So.
These things were sent by Shu Qing, right?
Su Cheng snatched my phone, looked at me seriously. “Do we need these, wife? Do you think I’m not as good as these automatic things?”
“No, listen to me explain…”
Before I could finish, I was thrown into the room.
Su Cheng showed me with his actions how unnecessary these things were.
I was on the verge of crying but had no tears.
The things weren’t bought by me.
Why do I have to bear all the blame!
At night.
Su Cheng spoke in my ear, his voice deep and powerful. “Wife, don’t buy these things in the future. I can do everything they can do.”
“And things they can’t do, I can also do.”
I really didn’t have the strength to answer him.
I was held in his arms.
When it was quiet at night, I had a dream.
I dreamed that I kicked Su Cheng at the training institution.
Little Su Cheng burst into tears.
And I stood there at a loss, trying to comfort him while also goading him. “A real man doesn’t cry!”
Later, he showed a smile that was uglier than crying.
It turns out that all the beauty has its traces.
