90s, The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Paranoid Boss is Reborn

 Chapter 310 Kissing and seducing

How could Xiao Wei know about such a big thing?

Wang Cuihua didn’t give him the chestnuts. If he answered wrongly, would he be kicked out of the house?

Xiao Wei hesitated for a moment, then bravely raised his head and looked at his elder brother for help.

Xiao Cheng said calmly: "Go to bed."

Xiao Wei stood up decisively, thanked him profusely and said good night: "Good night, brother and sister-in-law."

Hua Luoren has returned to the room and closed the door.

Bai Lu was still waiting for the answer. In an instant, the seats next to her were empty.

 The next second, a new chair was put on.

 The new person stretched out his long arms across the back of the chair, and put his cold hands on her shoulders casually.

A low-pitched voice came into my ears with the gentle night breeze: "The chestnuts Wang Cuihua gave me are a thank you for your life-saving grace."

Bai Lu turned her head in surprise, looking at the man's clear and handsome profile through the lamplight and moonlight: "When did I save her? Why didn't I know?"

Xiao Cheng casually took the remote control and changed the channel. Hearing this, he turned his eyes slightly and opened his mouth to remember for her.

 “Barbecue night.”

That night... everyone was either having a barbecue and making skewers, or singing and dancing. Amidst the laughter, someone in the crowd said something, someone over there fell into the water.

 Everyone ran non-stop to save people.

When we arrived, we discovered that Wang Cuihua, who had fallen into the water, had been rescued by Chen Dafu and was lying motionless on the grass.

Bai Lu remembered: "At that time, I only performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on Wang Cuihua and gave her artificial respiration to save her. Chen Dafu was her savior.

“If she wants to repay her kindness, she should also repay it to Chen Dafu. How can she repay my kindness to me..."

Xiao Cheng didn't know either, and he had no interest in guessing Wang Cuihua's thoughts. "She put the chestnuts at the door, told me the reason and left."

 “Just leave like this?”

Bai Lu was surprised: "She didn't chat with you, talk about... um or something?"

Xiao Cheng looked at Bai Lu's hesitant expression and asked with a low smile, "Well what?"

"Um…"

Bai Lu suddenly raised her eyes, met Xiao Cheng's half-smiling gaze, and realized what stupid thing she was doing.

 Coughed and decisively looked away.

 “It’s nothing, the TV is really nice.”

 It’s really good to watch, movie channel.

In a dilapidated and leaky house, a man in old blue clothes was clearly visible, washing rice and cooking it. The curtain was suddenly opened, and an uncle ran in.

 “Lao Xu, do you want a wife or not?”

As soon as the classic scene appeared, Bai Lu couldn't help but read out the classic line.

 Verbatim.

Xiao Cheng was slightly surprised. He glanced at the TV screen and then looked at the girl with a smile on her face.

"Seen?"

Bai Lu nodded subconsciously, and after a pause, she realized that something seemed wrong.

He immediately explained: "This movie was also shown on the movie channel a few days ago. I watched "The Wrangler" released in 1982 from beginning to end that day. I really liked the plot content and the great spiritual meaning spread by the movie, so I remember the lines very clearly.”

Xiao Cheng saw the flash of thoughts flashing in her eyes, turned his big hand, and took the person into his arms.

 Asked softly: “What is the movie about?”

 The crisp breath hit her breath, and Bai Lu came back to her senses from a slight daze, and a familiar feeling of peace eased her thoughts.

After a pause, Bai Lu leaned on Xiao Cheng's shoulder as if she was nestling in Xiao Cheng's arms.

Watching the hero and heroine who met for the first time on TV, he recounted the thoughts summarized in his memories - "In the Wrangler movie, there is the innocent and simple love between the hero and heroine, the kind and enthusiastic herders and fellow villagers, and the complete embodiment of the feelings of family and country...

“The male protagonist was born into a wealthy family, and he studied very well from childhood to adulthood. When he grew up, due to some political reasons at the time, he was sent to work in the countryside on pastures.

"The warm and kind friendly mutual assistance of the villagers gave the hero the motivation to persevere in the difficult environment... When the hero and heroine met, both of them had nothing. The two small red marriage certificates of the arranged marriage connected the hero and heroine. together.

“In that dilapidated and leaky earth house, the hero and heroine understood each other, supported each other, drank porridge together, ate rice together, faced difficulties together, endured hardships together, shared dreams, nurtured each other, and depended on each other...

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng subconsciously lowered his eyes. It happened that the girl in his arms was looking up at the roof.

 She was stunned when she met his eyes unexpectedly. After looking at each other for a second, the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

 The roofs are all black tiles, with only a little starlight falling from the transparent tile in the middle of the black tiles.

 Half of it was sprinkled on Xiao Cheng’s head.

 Half of it was sprinkled into Bai Lu’s eyes.

Her brows and eyes were smiling, and the stars were eclipsed.

From her crystal clear eyes, Xiao Cheng caught his own shadow and the face reflected when he looked at her.

 There was a moment of satisfaction: "It's over?"

"It's not over." Bai Lu asked, "Do you want to continue?"

  Xiao Cheng: “Yeah.”

 “What do you mean?” Bai Lu asked carefully.

Xiao Cheng looked at her deeply, was silent for a moment, lowered his head and whispered two words.

Bai Lu's ears felt hot, she pushed his face away and cleared her throat solemnly.

　　He continued talking about the movie seriously: “Later, the hero’s father found the hero, and the father and son got to know each other. The hero’s father wanted the hero to live in the United States with him.

“The male protagonist’s father has a business in the United States and is rich. The male protagonist can live a better life by following him.

“At that time, our country’s reform and opening up had just begun. The entire country and its people were in a prosperous and positive state. Everyone was working hard to build a beautiful homeland, and the country’s vitality was booming.

“The male protagonist rejected the opportunity to live in the United States and decided to stay and build the motherland. The motherland gave birth to his life, the yellow land accompanied him to grow up, his wife and children were his home, and the simple and kind-hearted villagers were his friends.

“He couldn’t let go of his wife and children, his home, his beloved motherland, his responsibility to teach and educate people, and his good students who loved learning. He decided to stay and run for a better future with the country…”

Perhaps the night was too quiet, the girl’s impassioned voice was too loud, and the feelings of family and country burst out.

Let Xiao Cheng, who is indifferent and unsentimental, re-examine the meaning of the four words "patriotic sentiments" for the first time.

The feelings of family and country were meaningless to Xiao Cheng in the past. It could neither give him a full belly, nor give him warmth, nor could it give him a shelter from the wind and rain.

 It has no effect and no sense of existence.

In Xiao Cheng's eyes, he has always been disdainful of the feelings of family and country, and also ironic.

 Similar to doubting the meaning of life countless times, it is meaningless and dispensable.

until…

 Xiao Cheng lowered his eyes slightly, looked at the girl in his arms who was still talking, and got the answer.

 Perhaps, all meaningless existence is just to wait for her arrival.

 She is all that means.

Bai Lu was talking about a movie when her chin was suddenly raised, and a chilly breath enveloped her.

Xiao Cheng's forehead was against hers, his silent and deep eyes enveloped her, and he pressed his lips with a tender and watery kiss.

 The night is sultry.

The lingering and sentimental kiss is even more sultry.
