Contrary to Yun Shu's expectations, there was no show of force, nor did Xie Yicheng treat Yun Shu like a helpless and pitiful girl just because he had a large family, or constantly manipulate her into believing that Yun Shu was not good enough for Xie Yicheng.

From the brigade leader and his wife to the brigade leader's eldest daughter-in-law's newborn daughter and Xie Yicheng's cousin who couldn't speak yet, everyone in Xie Yicheng's family showed extraordinary affection and respect for Yun Shu.

Specifically, Yun Shu, who wanted to show off by helping in the kitchen, was decisively refused, and her aunt and uncle arranged for her to sit on the kang (a heated brick bed) and wait for dinner without further explanation.

The little baby, who was originally quietly staying in his mother's arms, decisively abandoned his mother after seeing Yun Shu for the first time and turned to his future cousin-in-law's arms, no matter how much his mother called him, he could not come back.

Yun Shu was naturally happy to hold a baby in her arms. When you first arrive in a strange place, it's easy to feel awkward when there's nothing to do. A baby who hasn't even grown any teeth yet is actually the easiest person to get along with and the best medium to help Yun Shu integrate. Therefore, Yun Shu was quite happy to hold the sweet-smelling baby in her arms.

Xie Yicheng observed carefully for a while and saw that Yun Shu was not uncomfortable or unhappy about having a baby in her arms, so she was relieved.

Once Xie Yicheng estimated that Yun Shu's strength had recovered enough, and that carrying her rather heavy little cousin would make his arms ache, he took the child from Yun Shu and handed her back to her mother, receiving a sweet smile of surprise and delight from his girlfriend.

……

The brigade leader's wife was quick and efficient, and soon the sound of dishes being served came from the kitchen. Because there were many people, two tables were set up. The children and daughter-in-law did not eat on the kang (a heated brick bed), so they ate at a ground table. The dishes were no different from those on the kang table.

There weren't many people at the kang table: Yun Shu and Xie Yicheng, the brigade leader and his wife, plus the brigade leader's two sons.

The second son's family, who work in the city, also happened to be home today. They are nominally Xie Yicheng's uncles, but in reality, they are brothers with Xie Yicheng since childhood, just like Xie Yicheng's father and the brigade leader.

So from childhood to adulthood, the three brothers of the brigade leader's family all took good care of Xie Yicheng, their eldest nephew, and were very concerned about the important matters of his life as a young man in his twenties.

So many people had tried to introduce potential partners to Xie Yicheng, but he hadn't been interested in any of them. Who would have thought that things would take a turn for the better? Less than a month after he was transferred back from the military, he found such an outstanding wife for himself.

At the dinner table, everyone watched as Xie Yicheng kept putting food on Yun Shu's plate. Except for Yun Shu, who was a little embarrassed and blushed, everyone else winked and teased Xie Yicheng.

Yun Shu was quite full after the meal. Sometimes sensitive and sometimes carefree, Yun Shu quickly forgot what it meant to be nervous about meeting the parents. In the middle of the meal, she was so happy that she even drank two glasses with the only person drinking at the table, the captain. His hearty and unrestrained manner was so impressive that if it weren't for some rationality pulling in her mind against her crazy behavior, Yun Shu probably would have ended up playing a game of fistfight with the captain.

Everyone else was stunned by Yun Shu's drunken state. Yun Shu herself was also a little dazed. Only Xie Yicheng stayed by her side, smiling and taking good care of her, serving her food and giving her warm water to help her sober up.

It wasn't until she had eaten and drunk her fill and was seen off by the whole family that Yun Shu, with five red envelopes in her pocket and a sweet potato stick in her hand, belatedly realized that... what was supposed to happen hadn't happened at all.

……

Xie Yicheng, who had carried a large basket of fruits and vegetables for her, led her quite a distance. Yun Shu looked back at the brigade leader's family, who were still standing at the gate of the courtyard, and then turned to look at her new boyfriend. Her little head was a bit confused.

Xie Yicheng couldn't suppress her smile and happiness all day. Now, looking at her partner who was a little dazed and obedient because of a bit of drunkenness, she didn't care if her face was stiff from smiling. Her heart softened to the extreme.

Wet eyes, and a little red mouth.

If you want to kiss... you can kiss.

After all, this girl is his girlfriend now, isn't she?

So, after rounding a corner and climbing a small slope, they arrived at a relatively open and deserted place. The young girl, still somewhat dazed from drinking two ounces of baijiu, was grabbed by the big gray wolf in a gentle coat, who pinned her hands behind her back and pressed her against a tree trunk.

It was now completely dark, and all Yun Shu could hear was the incessant chirping of crickets. The tall figure in front of him leaned down impatiently, blocking the moonlight behind him.

Unlike the brief encounter in the roadside grove that afternoon, this time it was much more intense. The breath that brushed against Yun Shu's nostrils carried a hint of grain and liquor, making her feel intoxicated.

Yun Shu's legs felt weak, and she was having trouble breathing. Her lips felt numb, as if she had lost all feeling. She pushed against the chest of the person in front of her, wanting to escape. However, she had only been let go for a short while when the little rabbit was whimpering again and was carried back to its den by the big bad wolf.

When Xie Yicheng, who had no formal training, finally let Yun Shu go, Yun Shu's face was flushed red from being bullied, her cherry lips were burning, and her eyes were red with grievance.

It looks more like a little rabbit now.

Xie Yicheng held Yun Shu in his arms and gently stroked her back, trying to soothe her emotions in this way.

He was inexperienced, and Yun Shu was even more clueless, a complete blank slate. He had been somewhat impulsive in his passion just now, especially after the girl's unconscious, naive response, which greatly stimulated his male instincts.

That's too reckless; it might scare her.

But to be honest, this uncontrollable emotion... also startled him.

He had thought that he would be excited about falling in love for the first time in twenty years. Although he had little experience and had been interacting with Yun Shu based on instinct, the growing passion and desire constantly reminded Xie Yicheng that he had fallen for her.

She's still too young. He should be gentler and more patient... at least three more years.

……

After calming down for a while, Yun Shu had almost sobered up. Feeling the large, warm hand behind her, Yun Shu, who had been snuggling into Xie Yicheng's arms, successfully turned herself into a little tomato.

Unable to contain her anger, Yun Shu shifted her focus, playfully rubbing against Xie Yicheng's waist. Xie Yicheng hissed twice but did not stop her; instead, he hugged her even tighter.

As Yun Shu heard his satisfied sigh, a sense of bewilderment and helplessness suddenly welled up from the bottom of her heart.

She actually...got into a relationship! She got a boyfriend!

She'd only been in the book for less than two months, and had spent even less than a month with this person, yet they were already this intimate? Just moments ago they'd shared such a passionate French kiss, leaving her weak in the knees and breathless?!

Is this really her? She sounds so promising, I'm not sure... let me touch her abs again!
