Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1828 Flirting

Ye Chenghu genuinely doesn't care about parents.

He didn't specifically want to introduce her to his family; he just wanted her to come to his house to see him, which was more convenient than him going to her house to see her.

After all, it wouldn't be good if the neighbors saw him, a boy, going to her house every day. But there was nothing to worry about when she came to his house; his parents were very welcoming anyway.

Meeting his grandfather and his aunt was just a coincidence; it was nothing serious, and he didn't lose anything anyway.

Boys and girls are really different.

Anyway, we won't get married right away if we meet now, so it's the same if we meet after graduation.

He would call her every few days or occasionally take her home. Over time, his family must have gotten to the bottom of it, though they might not have brought it up openly.

You may not know now, but you will naturally find out in time.

Anyway, he has confidence in himself!
The only problem is that his education level isn't good enough for me, but everything else is a plus. Just look at his family background; if I married him, I'd never have to worry about anything for the rest of my life.

Ye Chenghu is now bursting with self-confidence.

After eating noodles, the two strolled around the factory. He introduced things to Zheng Shuya, and when they encountered workers they knew, they greeted them and exchanged a few jokes.

Anyway, he tells everyone he meets that she's his girlfriend. Now that he's in college, he doesn't have to be secretive anymore; he can say it openly.

After they finished shopping, he took them to their dorm.

It's late October now, and the weather is already cool, but there's still plenty of bedding in the dorms.

After Lin Dongxue got married, she left all the bedding in the dormitory and asked Ye Jingjing and Ye Xiuxiu to help make it up so that it would be just right for Zheng Shuya to sleep in.

Upon seeing Zheng Shuya, both men winked at Ye Chenghu.

"My third uncle said you brought your girlfriend over to play and asked us to help make the bed. That's when I believed you really had a girlfriend."

"Oh no, my brother is going to have a tough year."

Ye Chenghu immediately realized that his second aunt would scold Ye Chengjiang for being useless every year during the Spring Festival!
"Haha, well then he'll just have to pray for himself. I'll go to his dorm to sleep later and ask if he's found a girlfriend yet?"

"Come on, he stays in the dorm playing games all day. He's hardly ever seen a girl, let alone a woman," Ye Xiuxiu said, exasperated.

Ye Jingjing said, "Alright, go upstairs to sleep. We'll look after your girlfriend. Come over tomorrow morning."

"Alright then, I'll leave it to my two older sisters to take care of."

Ye Chenghu then looked at Zheng Shuya and said, "I'm going upstairs to sleep. If you need anything, go to the fourth room from the left upstairs and find me."

Zheng Shuya smiled and nodded.

He kept turning back to look at himself as he walked, explaining other miscellaneous things as he went.

Ye Xiuxiu pushed him away, saying, "Alright, you should leave now. We can't afford to eat her food."

Even after the door was closed, Ye Chenghu was still standing by the window watching. They chuckled and drew the curtains, and only then did he go upstairs.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, he was startled to see Lin Guangwen's leg, which was in a cast, sticking up.

"What happened to you? Did you break your leg?"

"It broke."

Lin Guangwen said calmly that even with his leg broken, it wouldn't affect his gaming. In fact, it would allow him to play games even better in his dorm room, since he didn't have to go to work and could play games full-time.

He sits on a stool, his leg in a cast propped up on the stool, his hands deftly manipulating the handles, muttering a few foul curses under his breath. It doesn't seem like he's paralyzed at all.

Ye Chenghe played a game and made sarcastic remarks, "Retribution. People are watching what you do, and even the heavens can't stand it."

"No, this is heaven being jealous of my talent. Even the heavens are jealous of me and want to create some hardships for me."

"You vulgar mortal, God looks down on you, that's why He casually let you break your leg."

"It's okay, as long as someone cares, then my leg injury was worth it."

"You son of a bitch, I could break your third leg and still keep trying to gain sympathy."

Lin Guangwen clenched his crotch, "This is useful to me."

Ye Chenghu listened to their bickering and was a little confused. "Have you two fallen out? Did you get into a fight while playing games?"

"You can call me brother-in-law from now on."

"A few hairs."

"Huh?" Ye Chenghu's eyes widened. "Holy crap, Jingjing?"

Lin Guangwen nodded smugly, "That's right, we're mutually attracted, feelings developed over time, and it was a perfect match... like dry wood meeting a raging fire... Ouch, foot foot foot foot..."

"What?! You and Jingjing are really a couple? Seriously? My sister, how could you do this to her?"

“She’s your sister, not my sister. I wasn’t familiar with her before either. When we were little, I saw that she was thin and small, with two snotty noses hanging from her nose, and she would sit at the door digging for shellfish.”

"So how did you pursue her?"

Ye Chenghu found it unbelievable. He had just arrived at the factory when he was shocked to learn that his cousin and his older cousin had become a couple.

So, should he call his cousin "cousin-in-law" or "sister-in-law"? Or should they each call each other by their own names?

“She’s grown up and become beautiful. She’s well-behaved and capable. There’s no better match for her. I’m in a good position to get her. It’s better to benefit myself than someone else. We’re still family, even if it’s just a roundabout way.”

When did you start?

Upon hearing this, Ye Chenghe's ears perked up. No matter how much he threatened or bribed Lin Guangwen, he wouldn't tell him.

Lin Guangwen chuckled, "I'm not telling you."

Ye Chenghe angrily slapped his leg in the cast, and instantly another pig-like scream rang out.

"They wouldn't dare say it. They must have been eyeing us since the beginning of the year, and they've already started, so they're too guilty to talk about it," Ye Chenghu asserted.

"Damn, they really kept it a secret. If I hadn't seen them kissing last week, I would still be completely in the dark."

"kiss!!!"

Ye Chenghu slapped him hard on the back, "You shameless old lecher, I haven't even kissed you on the lips, but you have!"

"Hit him! Chenghe, hit him! We've been in a relationship for two years, and even after we officially became a couple for several months, I still haven't dared to kiss him, we've only held hands. He's gone too far!"

"He might be kissing you every day when you're not looking, and he might even be touching you. He's shameless and a pervert. He should die!"

Lin Guangwen slammed his fist on the table in anger, “You’re just jealous! You can’t kiss me, so you’re jealous of me? Trying to sow discord!”

Ye Chenghu sneered, "Tell me, did you act like a hooligan? Were you already targeting me at the beginning of the year?"

"Being jealous of others just because you lack ability yourself."

Ye Chenghe asked, annoyed, "Why don't you pursue Xiuxiu?"

"I don't know her well."

"So you're close to my sister now?"

"Of course, I see her every day when she's handing in the forms, since she works in the factory's accounting department. Xiuxiu works in the accounting department of the fishmeal factory, and she leaves early and comes home late, so I don't see her often and we're not close."

"Oh shit……"

Lin Guangwen stood up and hopped on one foot to the edge of the bed. "I want to sleep. I'm injured, and I need to rest early. Don't disturb me."

Ye Chenghu continued to fan the flames, saying, "The wounded are the ones who are tough."

"Those who lack ability should refrain from speaking."

"Brother Chenghe, he's going to be your brother-in-law. Luckily, he broke his leg, otherwise I don't know when he might have taken advantage of you and forced you into marriage, ruining Jingjing and leaving you to suffer in silence."

"If he dares, I'll break his third leg right now."

Lin Guangwen curled up against the wall, glaring at Ye Chenghu, "I'm your own cousin. If you won't help me, fine, but why are you stirring things up?"

"I'm just sticking to reason, not personal connections. It's wrong of you to act like a thug."

Lin Guangwen rolled his eyes. In the end, it was just jealousy. He wasn't like that when he said it.

When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Now that he's outnumbered, he can't say anything more for the sake of his third leg.

Fortunately, he went to bed and gave up his gaming spot. They talked for a while and then started playing games again, not having time to pay attention to him.

Ye Chenghu didn't play for long; he was thinking about kissing... no, he was thinking about taking Zheng Shuya out to play tomorrow.

Ye Chenghe and Ye Chengjiang take turns working the morning and evening shifts, so neither of them can spare the time to accompany them. He doesn't mind; he and Zheng Shuya can have more fun together, and it's not awkward to have someone else in the middle.

Zheng Shuya's situation in the girls' dormitory was naturally a different story.

Ye Xiuxiu learned about Ye Jingjing's family situation, chatted about their love story, and teased the old bachelor Ye Chengjiang. They got along very well.

Ye Chenghu got up early the next morning to buy breakfast and waited at the dormitory entrance.

He was very savvy and bought three portions, which pleased both of his older sisters.

As Zheng Shuya ate breakfast, she walked outside with him. "Where are we going this morning?"

Ye Chenghu had been thinking about kissing her all night, and his eyes couldn't help but linger on her lips.

"I'll take you on a bike ride around the whole city first, then I'll take you to Putuoshan. We only have two days, so you can choose what to do first, and we can come back next weekend."

Zheng Shuya nodded while munching on her steamed bun, but she also felt like he was looking at her bun.
"Are you not full? Or did you skip breakfast?" She handed him the steamed bun. "Why don't you tear it in half? This is too big; I can't finish it."

Ye Chenghu watched as she took two bites of the bun, and then, using her hand, took a big bite from the spot where she had eaten.

Zheng Shuya looked at the steamed buns shyly, then ate them in small bites.

Normally, they would at most eat together, pass food to each other, and use each other's water glasses, but they would never engage in such blatant indirect kissing.

The two said they had been dating for several months, but they only saw each other a few times during the summer vacation. Ye Chenghu stayed in his hometown for quite a long time and called each other more often.

We didn't see each other for more than half a month after school started and then military training. Not long after the military training ended, he went to Guangzhou. It wasn't until this month that we started having meals and dates together every day.

The most intimate gestures are holding hands and hugging.

Ye Chenghu was inexperienced; the naive young boy dared not do anything. His theoretical knowledge was limited to fantasies, and he dared not do anything in reality.

I was so provoked by Lin Guangwen last night that I was itching to do something this morning.

He chewed on the steamed bun, grinning foolishly, and after finishing it, he grabbed her hand and took another bite.

Zheng Shuya watched him bite shyly.

The two were shy yet flirtatious.

"You're still hungry, here, have some."

"I'm full, but watching you eat makes it taste even better. Zheng Shuya, I like you so much."

"Hehehe, so many people, is it time to start work at the factory?"

"Yes, it's time for the morning shift change. Look at all these Liberation trucks, they've all come back after delivering goods overnight, isn't that spectacular?"

"Hmm, lots of cars."

"There's another freight company in Shanghai with even more Jiefang motorcycles, dozens of them. Let's go, we'll ride motorcycles, wear helmets and be careful."

Zheng Shuya took the helmet with a mixture of curiosity and bewilderment. "Okay."

P.S.: I really don't want to write today, and I don't want to go to work. I'll make up for it tomorrow; I'll update 9000 words tomorrow.
