Qingyun's Love: Tiger Boy Falls in Love with a Pretty Lawyer

As soon as I caught sight of the Zhu family's thatched cottage, I saw a man and a woman shoving and pushing each other in front of the door. The young woman had a high bun, a pale complexion, and was dressed in fancy clothes. The man was about her age, and the two were laughing and joking.

Seeing this scene, Ranmo and Qingsheng felt a little suffocated. Not having the energy to approach and start a conversation, they chatted for a few minutes beside the path. Only after the man had walked away did they stroll over and approach the house.

The woman watched the man leave, and just as she was about to go back in, she saw two young men approaching. Her pupils immediately dilated. She simply put her hands on the doorpost and watched them approach, as if they were waiting for her.

Ran Mo let out a light breath and wanted to signal Qing Sheng to speak, but he saw that he had his head tilted up, looking at something unknown. Alas, it was clear that he couldn't count on her. So he said, "Is this young lady Zhu Jialihua?"

The woman nodded and glanced at the two of them with a pair of affectionate eyes, especially her gaze lingering on Qingsheng for a long time. However, Qingsheng didn't even look at her.

The woman turned to Ran Mo and asked, "I wonder what you want from me, sir?" "Oh, that's right. I'm Doctor Liang, and a friend of Liang Cong. I heard that his family and the young lady are planning a marriage, so I happened to be passing by, so I came to see if I could help you."

"Oh, thank you both for your help. It's really no big deal. When a man gets married, a woman follows her husband wherever he goes. It's no big deal. It's not like I can't get married." The woman said casually.

Hearing these somewhat vulgar words, Ranmo and Qingsheng felt a surge of anxiety. Judging from her words and actions, this woman was probably not someone who could lead a stable life.

Zhu Lihua looked at Qingsheng with seductive eyes, opened her red lips slightly, and asked in a sweet voice: "This young man looks unfamiliar. I wonder where he is from?" As she spoke, she leaned towards Qingsheng with her body, her hand almost resting on Qingsheng's shoulder.

Qingsheng quickly jumped to the side, and the woman fell into the air. Qingsheng said with a hint of annoyance, "Young lady, please stand still."

The woman was unwilling to give in, so she waved her hands and rushed forward again. Ran Mo was afraid that Qing Sheng would suffer a loss, but since she was a girl, she was not afraid of her harassment, so she went over to block Qing Sheng, as if to attack him.

But the woman stretched out her arm and pushed her aside, saying, "Get out of here."

Ran Mo was both embarrassed and annoyed. It seemed like I wasn't attractive to him, even though I was wearing men's clothing. This was truly embarrassing in front of Qing Sheng. I'd definitely become his laughingstock. Gang shouldn't have taken the initiative to save him.

Qingsheng was already irritated, and pointed at the woman and said, "Stop, young lady, please respect yourself!" Seeing that the woman was stunned, he simply said,

"Since you have already been engaged to Mr. Liang, you should have stayed at home and waited patiently for the auspicious day to marry. However, you continue to behave inappropriately with other men, which may have disappointed Mr. Liang."

Ran Mo secretly admired him from the side. At the critical moment, he had to rely on Qing Sheng's awe-inspiring righteousness.

The woman's face turned red, and she raised her hand angrily, "Who are you? How dare you teach me a lesson! Liang Cong is just obsessed with me. He feels like he's been away for a long time. If you have the guts, go and take care of him. Could it be that you're also coveting my beauty and want to replace him?"

Qingsheng was so angry that he almost fainted. He was not good at cursing and arguing with people. Ranmo stepped forward again and scolded:

"No matter how eloquent you are, you can't hide your shameless nature. Do you have the guts to say these words to Liang Cong's face? If you are honest, just tell Liang Cong clearly in advance whether you love him or not, and whether you will marry him or not. Don't ruin his life!"

Zhu Lihua wanted to throw a tantrum and curse back, but after hearing Ran Mo's last words, she paused, a cold look on her face, and said:

"Love is love, not love is not love. I haven't done anything against the moral code. If he can't tolerate my little things and understand my suffering, why would he come to me to marry me? If he just wants momentary pleasure, I don't know if I am hurting him or he is hurting me." As he said this, he wiped his eyes with silk and choked up.

This time, they were at a loss. What on earth was going on? How did they suddenly become victims?

Ran Mo suddenly remembered that Zhu Lihua's family environment didn't seem to be very good. It wasn't in terms of finances, but her family was in the grain and oil business, so they were not short of money.

I only heard that her father was a heavy drinker and often stayed out all night, leaving her and her daughter alone at home. As Zhu Lihua grew older, she became somewhat cynical and unexpectedly became frivolous in matters of love and marriage.

Ran Mo sighed and slowly said, "Miss Zhu, we have offended you just now. We understand what you are thinking, but marriage is no joke; it concerns a person's lifelong happiness.

Although you may seem a bit uninhibited, I believe that deep down you must be longing for a man who can truly care for you, right? If so, why are you being so careless about this matter?

Zhu Lihua looked up at Ran Mo. Her words had touched her soft spot, and she softened her tone and said, "Thank you for your guidance, sir. Liang Cong and I are not without feelings, and this is not a joke. It's just that my personality would probably cause resentment and trouble in anyone else."

"Then have you had a heart-to-heart talk with Liang Cong? Both sides should be frank and honest, and talk about their respective strengths and weaknesses and their true wishes, so that both sides can have more room to consider and weigh the pros and cons."

"We talk about it occasionally, and Liang Cong just says he doesn't care about my past or my attitude. How can I open up to him?"

Ran Mo felt a little conflicted when he saw that her story didn't seem like a lie. Zhu Lihua suddenly said sternly, "You can go to his house and tell him everything you saw and heard today. He can come back to cancel the engagement at any time. I won't stop him."

Ran Mo saw that he was still being stubborn. He said in a friendly manner, "What are you thinking? We are not the kind of people who gossip. Besides, we have only met once, how can we compare to Liang Sheng's understanding of you?"

"By the way, I'm sure you know my sister, Wei Hua. As her younger sister—and her younger brother who hasn't grown up much—I naturally hope you can be happy." Ran Mo almost let it slip. He had no choice but to bring up Wei Hua to play the emotional card.

"Wei Hua, we used to have a great relationship, but later on, she probably felt that I was disorganized and she distanced herself from me.

It's also your mother's credit. Your sister went to play with us, but your mother grabbed her ears and sent her back." Zhu Lihua recalled and smiled.

Ran Mo saw that the atmosphere had eased, so he chatted with Zhu Lihua for a while. However, it was difficult for others to interfere with how the two of them were getting along and what they were thinking.

He then decided to go back and make plans later. He comforted Zhu Lihua with a few words and said goodbye to her. Zhu Lihua returned the greeting briefly and turned to go into the courtyard.
