My Beloved Super Fierce Wife -
Chapter 401 This is a life-giving question.
Chapter 401: 401 This is a life-giving question.
Lin Tang almost choked on her food from laughing at Gu Yingzhou’s words of being an "older single man."
"Cough cough..." She choked a bit, patted her chest, and said, "Older single man? How did you come up with that?"
With that kind of talk, I wouldn’t believe you if you said you weren’t from the future.
Gu Yingzhou’s original intention was to coax the young lady into coming home with him to meet his family.
Who would have known she completely missed the point?
The handsome young man’s face became even more helpless.
"My sister didn’t get married until she was twenty-two, and my grandmother called her an ’older leftover woman.’
Now I’m almost twenty-four and not married yet, so doesn’t that make me an older single man?" he said.
Listening to his explanation, Lin Tang found it quite reasonable.
Her focus landed on the important point that his family was urging him to find a partner.
"They started pushing you to find someone at eighteen? So you..."
Have you looked at other girls?!
Before she could finish asking, Gu Yingzhou immediately shook his head.
"No, I’m not interested in other female comrades."
He keenly sensed that this was a life-or-death question.
A slight misstep and he might lose the potential partner.
So he immediately declared his position.
Recalling Gu Yingzhou’s aloof manner when she first met him, Lin Tang suddenly felt a little intrigued.
"I wasn’t asking about that." She explained with a smile.
However.
The next question tightened Gu Yingzhou’s body even more.
"Do you have a close childhood friend or a Bai Yueguang?"
Gu Yingzhou fell silent.
Seemingly contemplating something.
Lin Tang’s heart skipped a beat.
No way, does he really have one?!
Who knew that after thinking for a half minute, Gu Yingzhou would ask such a question.
"I don’t have a childhood friend, but what is Bai Yueguang?"
He truly had no childhood sweetheart.
As a child, he lived in a large compound, playing with many kids, both boys and girls.
If all of them were counted as childhood sweethearts, that would indeed be a mess!
Lin Tang looked at him and said, "Have you seen ’Red Rose and White Rose’? There’s a vivid explanation of Bai Yueguang and ’cinnabar mole’ in it.
Simply put, it means the irreplaceable woman at the very top of your heart."
For a woman, a man with a Bai Yueguang would be among the top few untouchable men.
Gu Yingzhou felt this question was even riskier.
He felt like he was walking a tightrope.
"The woman at the top of my heart... I don’t have one, but there is a young lady."
His deep black eyes reflected Lin Tang’s figure, his face earnest and sincere.
Lin Tang felt flirted with to the point she wanted to cover her face with her hand.
Yet her face was as calm as could be.
She awkwardly changed the subject.
"You mentioned earlier you wanted to bring me home to meet the elders, and I agree."
After all, her birthday wasn’t far away.
It wouldn’t hurt to visit since she’s already in Sea City.
Moreover, Zhouzhou’s family knew she’d arrived, and it would be impolite not to visit.
Gu Yingzhou’s eyes sparkled with an extremely bright light.
A rare smile with bared teeth appeared on his handsome face.
He sat with good posture, his back and shoulders straight.
He wore a white shirt, and his neck was slender.
Elegant in appearance, illustrious in demeanor.
"Tangtang, thank you," Gu Yingzhou said warmly, in a good mood.
To be honest, he really just wanted to bring the young lady home to meet the family.
In the depths of Gu Yingzhou’s heart, Lin Tang was an incomparable treasure, one he wanted to proclaim to the world.
Lin Tang gazed at him with sparkly eyes and said, "Do we really need to thank each other in our relationship?"
After a pause, with a look of anticipation for drama, she chuckled, "I have quite a few brothers at home; when you come to my house..."
Don’t even think about it!
What kind of a funeral site would that be?
And then there was the third brother, whose arm had been torn off by someone at the time.
Thinking about how every time he came back he brainwashed her to stay away from the violent comrade, Lin Tang felt an ache in her head.
Gu Yingzhou obviously thought of Lin Qingmu as well.
With a helpless expression, he pinched the bridge of his nose.
"If worse comes to worst, just let my uncle beat me up. I’ll taste the bitter fruit of my own brewing," he said resignedly, which made Lin Tang burst into laughter.
"It doesn’t need to be that pessimistic, I think my mother has a pretty good impression of you. It shouldn’t be a big problem!"
Gu Yingzhou: "..."
If you weren’t laughing so heartily, I might actually believe you.
Amid their conversation, Lin Tang had almost finished the food in her lunchbox.
There were still two pan-fried buns left.
"...I can’t eat anymore." She looked longingly at Gu Yingzhou.
They say a good man will finish his beloved’s leftovers; I wonder if he minds.
"I’ll do it."
Without a second thought, Gu Yingzhou took the chopsticks and started eating.
Lin Tang silently gave the man a few extra points in her heart.
As she looked at him, she noticed his ears had turned red.
"Zhouzhou, why are your ears red? You’re not getting... embarrassed again, are you?" she reached out to pinch them.
But before she could touch them, Gu Yingzhou’s large palm enveloped her hand.
The grip was neither too strong nor too weak, it didn’t hurt Lin Tang, yet it prevented her from breaking free.
Gu Yingzhou finished his little niece’s leftovers in just a few bites.
After tidying up the lunchbox.
"Do you want to go to the Friendship Store?" he asked.
The Friendship Store? A place with many things you can’t see elsewhere.
It’s a rare visit to Sea City, of course, I’d like to go.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Lin Tang repeated three times.
A low chuckle came from Gu Yingzhou’s throat.
"Let’s go."
The two of them went to the Guest House.
They left the lunchbox temporarily with the front desk staff.
Gu Yingzhou mounted his bicycle and took Lin Tang towards the Friendship Store.
This expo was the first since the founding of the nation, and technicians from all over the country had gathered together.
As a result, the population of Sea City had surged.
The streets were crowded.
Young and beautiful girls, sunny and spirited young men, grandparents with beaming smiles... everyone in high spirits.
In one of the top developed areas in the country, the people’s vitality was indeed different.
The buildings on both sides of the street were bright and imposing.
Clear evidence that this was a city on the rise.
Lin Tang couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss thinking that in just a few months, a great fire would ignite from Jing City and here.
History’s gears were turning, and she was like a dandelion in the wind, unable to shift it th slightest bit.
Fortunately, the years that followed were merely a detour, and the future was bright.
Gu Yingzhou rode along, his handsome face brimming with smiles, carrying his little niece.
A handsome man and a beautiful woman together made quite a sight.
The rate of turning heads on the road was one hundred percent.
Compared to backward areas, Sea City, as an international gateway, was open and tolerant, embracing diversity.
They were also the kindest towards couples in love.
With a great event taking place, there were quite a few couples on the streets.
After a while, Gu Yingzhou and Lin Tang arrived at the Friendship Store.
Skyscrapers lined the streets, with all kinds of shops open.
The Friendship Store was situated at the hub of a busy crossroad.
The sign ’Friendship Store’ hung above the entrance.
To the right, a transparent glass window emblazoned with ’Long live Leninism’ shone clean and bright.
The Friendship Store mainly dealt in two types of products.
One was specialty items like silk and handicrafts.
The other included hard-to-find commodities like foreign liquor, televisions, refrigerators, and leather shoes.
The range of goods in the store could not compare to that of future times, but they were plentiful for that era.
