Chapter 158 The blind date was successful, Lou Xiaoe was fooled

If it were before, as a person with modern ideas, Wang Weiguo would not want to be so hasty when it comes to finding a partner and getting married.

Because Wang Weiguo knew that in that era, marriage and divorce were not trivial matters, not as casual as in later generations.

Wang Weiguo even wanted to experience the pure love of this era.

This was Wang Weiguo’s thought when his memories of his previous life had just awakened, and it was somewhat naive and idealistic.

But after all this time and so many things happening, Wang Weiguo's thoughts have also changed.

Since we live in this era, we must learn to adapt to the thoughts and social environment of this era.

Of course.

It doesn't mean that finding a partner or marrying a wife is something you can do casually. After all, it's someone you're going to be sleeping with, and a person with a formal status, so naturally you can't be careless or negligent about it.

There is no need to say more about her good looks.

When you understand each other, suitability is more important.

At the moment, Lou Xiao'e is very suitable. Not to mention being a wife, at least she can be a partner.

As for whether it can be successful in the future, we will just let nature take its course.

In Lou Xiao'e, Wang Weiguo saw the girl's innocence, her cuteness, and her kind and gentle heart. Such a good girl should not be missed.

Just now, Lou Xiao'e took the initiative to ask him what his impression of her was. It was obvious that she had a good impression of him. From the previous chat conversation, Wang Weiguo had already vaguely sensed this, so he asked that question just now.

It’s a bit too direct, but isn’t that how blind dates work in this era?

If they like each other and feel that it is a good match, they will be together.

If you just have some favorable impression but it is not enough, then try to contact the person a few more times.

If you don't like it or feel it's not suitable, there will be no next time.

There are not many people like this in this era who deliberately keep others hanging even though they clearly look down on them. They will be criticized in the back by others.

It was a tentative question, and Lou Xiao'e actually agreed.

However, seeing that Lou Xiao'e looked a little embarrassed and uneasy after agreeing, Wang Weiguo thought she regretted it. He couldn't help but frowned, and then reminded her solemnly: "Ms. Lou, dating is not a trivial matter, nor is it a child's play. Maybe my actions just now were a bit abrupt. If you really think it through, you can't regret it."

This is a reminder and also a chance for her to regret.

Just as Wang Weiguo said, his question to Lou Xiao'e whether she wanted to have a relationship was too sudden. Lou Xiao'e might not have thought it through, or she agreed on impulse, and now that she has calmed down, she is regretting or struggling.

Although a forced melon can quench your thirst, blind dating is a matter of mutual consent. If Lou Xiao'e hesitates, it would be a bit boring.

Although Wang Weiguo thinks that Lou Xiao'e is good now, she is not indispensable.

"what?"

Lou Xiao'e looked up in astonishment, looked at Wang Weiguo in front of her, and hurriedly explained nervously: "I don't want to regret it!"

"Then why did you look so conflicted and reluctant just now?"

Seeing Lou Xiao'e say this, Wang Weiguo also asked directly.

"I……"

After hesitating for a while, Lou Xiaoe looked at Wang Weiguo, pursed her lips, and finally explained a little embarrassedly: "Actually, there is one thing I didn't tell you. I didn't want to come to this blind date today.

I am now in my last year of high school and will be taking the college entrance exam soon. If I can be admitted, I would like to continue studying, but my father disagrees and wants me to find someone to get married after graduating from high school.

I don’t want to find a partner and get married so soon, but my mother said that as long as I come here obediently today and go on a blind date with you honestly, no matter what the result is, she will help me persuade my father to let me continue to go to school..."

"Then why did you agree?"

Wang Weiguo was delighted when he learned that there was such a little episode in the movie.

"I……"

Lou Xiao'e simply lowered her head in shyness.

Before meeting the person, she naturally disagreed. She just wanted to come here to have a meal and then go back as if she had completed a task.

After meeting the person, she changed her mind.

It was not only because Wang Weiguo was good-looking that made her attracted to him at first sight, but also because his subsequent contacts repeatedly changed her perception of him.

If he was only good at talking about cooking and food, it would not be surprising. After all, Wang Weiguo was already a level 5 cook at such a young age, so he must have his strengths.

The key point is that no matter what Lou Xiao'e talks to him, Wang Weiguo can always pick up the topic and even come up with some unique insights, which makes her feel incredible.

Who would have thought that words like stereotype and herd mentality could come from the mouth of a young chef, and that Wang Weiguo could even talk about some situations abroad, and they were not made up.

Lou Xiao'e was stunned.

It’s not that Lou Xiao’e looks down on the profession of cook, but Wang Weiguo said it himself. He only graduated from junior high school, but Lou Xiao’e felt that she, a high school student who was about to graduate, was no different from an elementary school student in front of him.

Not to mention that Wang Weiguo is a very interesting person and not the type who only talks big.

During the meal, I lost count of how many times he made me laugh.

It’s not that I don’t have suitors at school, but compared to Wang Weiguo, they are all crushed in an instant.

There is no doubt that she was attracted to Wang Weiguo.

"I think you're a nice person."

After holding it in for a long time, Lou Xiao'e finally uttered these words.

"I also think you have good taste."

Wang Weiguo agreed seriously.

"Thank you!"

After saying thank you, Lou Xiao'e was suddenly stunned when she saw Wang Weiguo couldn't help laughing.

Lou Xiao'e realized it later and only then did she realize that although Wang Weiguo was praising her on the surface, he was actually praising both of them, and even focused on praising himself.

Realizing this, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but gave Wang Weiguo a good-looking roll of the eyes.

Suddenly I realized that Wang Weiguo is not without flaws. At least he is quite thick-skinned.

This is the first time I see someone praising himself in front of others, and the key is that he doesn’t blush or get nervous.

"You..."

Lou Xiao'e wanted to complain about Wang Weiguo, but she found that she didn't know how to say it. After all, it would be a bit rude to directly say that he was thick-skinned or shameless.

"Cheeky, right?"

Wang Weiguo spoke directly for her.

When her little thoughts were guessed, Lou Xiao'e blushed, but she felt sweet in her heart.

It was as if the two of them had a telepathic connection, and Wang Weiguo could easily know what he was thinking.

"Is it settled that we're dating?"

"Ok!"

"Without regret."

"No regrets!"

'...'

Although the agreement just now was somewhat impulsive, the result now is obviously the result of Lou Xiao'e calming down and thinking carefully.

It is not easy to find someone who can make your heart beat faster. Being in the blooming age of love, how can Lou Xiao'e not yearn for romantic love in her life.

The two of them came outside, and tacitly did not go to get the car, but just took a walk outside.

It was still early, not even afternoon yet, and neither Wang Weiguo nor Lou Xiao'e were obviously planning on going back so soon.

Since a man and a woman have just established a relationship, now is the best time to enhance mutual understanding and affection.

"Xiao'e, do you really want to go to college?" While walking and talking, Lou Xiao'e was suddenly stumped by Wang Weiguo's question.

Hearing this, Lou Xiao'e shook her head and said to Wang Weiguo: "I don't know either."

It was impossible for her to say that she didn't want to at all, otherwise she wouldn't have come to the blind date today.

But in fact, the main reason why Lou Xiao'e wanted to go to college was because her father planned to have her go on a blind date and get married right after she graduated from high school, but she didn't want it to happen so soon, so she wanted to use studying to escape.

But after meeting Wang Weiguo today, Lou Xiaoe herself was not sure whether this was still necessary.

"actually……"

After thinking about it, Lou Xiao'e said all of this.

After listening, Wang Weiguo asked again: "If you don't continue studying, is there anything you want to do?"

Lou Xiao'e was stunned again.

She really hadn't thought about this problem.

Given her family's financial situation, Lou Xiao'e certainly had never thought of working in a factory.

After all, the Lou family is not short of money, and for Lou Xiao'e, working in a factory is tantamount to asking for trouble.

As for easier jobs like broadcaster or telephone operator, Lou Xiao'e had no interest in them. Otherwise, given the current situation of the Lou family, it would not be a problem for Lou's father to arrange one for her.

Lou Xiao'e has lived the life of a young lady since she was a child. Even after entering the new society, she has never suffered any hardship. She has basically been pampered and does not have to worry about food and clothing, so she has almost never taken the initiative to think about work.

Wang Weiguo's question really stumped her.

She is studying now, mostly because she is bored at home, so she goes out to make more friends and learn some knowledge.

From this perspective, if you don't want to continue studying, getting married may be a good choice.

Glancing at Wang Weiguo beside her, and thinking about getting married with him, having children with him, and taking care of the children, Lou Xiao'e's face turned red again.

Lou Xiao'e naturally didn't dare to say all this, so she had to blush and reply to Wang Weiguo: "If I don't study, I will have to get married."

Wang Weiguo was stunned when he heard what Lou Xiao'e said.

Looking at her red cheeks, Wang Weiguo guessed that she must be thinking about something in her mind. Her cute and adorable look made Wang Weiguo feel a little funny.

"Xiao'e, I hope you understand that this is not a multiple-choice question."

"what?"

"What I mean is that whether it's studying or getting married, it's not a one-way choice. The most important thing is that you have to think clearly about what you want."

"If we get married in the future, it won't be a relationship where one is dependent on the other."

"We are a family, but everyone is still an independent individual. I hope you can have something you like or are passionate about, and realize your own value."

"Think about it, if you get married and you are forced to stay in a yard, gossip with a bunch of middle-aged women all day, and have to give birth to children and take care of them, is this the life you want to live in the future?"

"..."

Lou Xiao'e was stunned.

No one had ever told her this.

Even when she had nothing to do, she would read some foreign novels or books on philosophical thinking, which also touched upon these things, but Lou Xiao'e had never thought deeply about them or connected them with reality and herself.

She reads books more for fun and to pass the time.

The reason why Wang Weiguo told Lou Xiao'e all this was because the two of them might really get married. If things developed in this direction, Wang Weiguo did not want Lou Xiao'e to be a housewife who stayed at home every day.

On the one hand, it is for Lou Xiao'e's own good. She is not incompetent and should not waste her life like this.

on the other hand.

It is Wang Weiguo's selfish motive.

Even after getting married, Wang Weiguo had no idea of ​​giving up the entire forest for a tree, not to mention that before Lou Xiaoe, he already had several women and he was reluctant to give up any of them.

From the beginning, there was no intention of turning back on this road.

If Lou Xiao'e stayed at home and by his side all day, Wang Weiguo would lose a lot of his freedom.

If he doesn't find something for Lou Xiao'e to do, how can he have a red flag flying at home and colorful flags fluttering outside in the future?

After standing there and thinking deeply for a long time, Lou Xiaoe's thoughts slowly returned to reality. She looked at Wang Weiguo with a complicated look and asked, "Wang Weiguo, if you tell me all this, if I choose to continue studying, aren't you afraid that I won't date you?"

"why?"

Hearing Lou Xiao'e's words, Wang Weiguo asked in confusion: "Why can't you date me if you continue to study? Are these two things in conflict?"

Lou Xiao'e was stunned again.

like……

No conflict!

"You mean, you support me to go to college and continue my studies?"

Lou Xiao'e asked tentatively.

"Why not support it?" Wang Weiguo asked back, adding, "If you have this idea."

Getting a marriage certificate does not affect college entrance exams and studying.

Of course.

These are based on the assumption that Lou Xiao'e herself has this idea.

Even if he had his own selfish motives, Wang Weiguo would not force Lou Xiao'e to do something she didn't like.

"Weiguo, you are so nice!"

Feeling Wang Weiguo's respect and support, Lou Xiao'e was a little moved, but she seemed to think of something, and she said a little depressed: "My father doesn't support me!"

When this was mentioned, Lou Xiao'e became a little unhappy.

This was the second time that Lou Xiao'e mentioned that her father did not allow her to go to college.

Wang Weiguo could obviously guess what Lou's father was thinking about this plan.

Being able to become a capitalist in that period, Lou's father was obviously not an ordinary person. He had good personal insights and political acumen. However, the key point was that the current situation did not make him feel at ease.

In fact, there are many capitalists like him who have already fled to Hong Kong Island or abroad. In addition to some of them being dishonest themselves, some are also uneasy about protecting their property.

Most of those who were able to stay had relatively clean backgrounds, or were pro-Party members, and voluntarily handed over part of their assets. The Lou family naturally fell into this category.

Even so, as a capitalist, Mr. Lou is still cautious.

Especially in recent years, some other capitalists have started to run away, which has further aggravated Lou's father's anxiety.

Therefore, Lou's father has become more and more low-key, and naturally he does not want his daughter to be too outstanding and attract attention from the outside world.

If it weren't for these reasons, Lou Xiao'e in the original drama would not have married Xu Damao, an ordinary projectionist.

What Mr. Lou values ​​is only the worker's identity.

When the daughter of a capitalist marries a worker and forms a family, she is demonstrating her attitude and loyalty to her superiors.

Wang Weiguo admired Lou's father's foresight and foresight, but did not agree with his approach, which was tantamount to sacrificing his daughter's happiness.

But even so, there are always unexpected changes in the world, which cannot be changed by human power.

No matter how much Mr. Lou did, he still had to leave in the end and could not change the outcome.

In Wang Weiguo's opinion, there is no need to prevent Lou Xiao'e from taking the college entrance examination.

The next few years will still be very safe. It is not a bad thing to take the college entrance examination now. There is no need to restrict Lou Xiao'e's freedom and future.

"Wang Weiguo, I have decided. I want to go to college! Next, study hard, acquire knowledge, and become a useful person in the future..."
