Liu Jia stood in a prominent position, while Qin Tianming hid in the shadows.

Both of them were looking in the same direction, but their thoughts were different.

Time passed slowly, and it grew darker and darker, but there was no sound from the vicinity of the production team.

"Brother, Dongmei isn't coming. Shall we go back?"

Qin Tianming's words carried a hint of confidence.

Liu Jia smiled and said, "It's not time yet, how do you know she won't come? Maybe she's on her way right now."

Qin Tianming glanced into the distance and muttered to himself softly.

"At this point, they definitely won't come."

In fact, Qin Tianming wasn't sure himself either.

In the past, when I met Liu Dongmei, I would always arrive early and sometimes wait for her for quite a while before I could even see her.

Liu Jia's words made sense; the time hadn't come yet, so why would they arrive?

Bored, Qin Tianming tore off a corn husk and shredded it into small pieces.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in the distance.

Because they were too far away, neither Liu Jia nor Qin Tianming could see clearly who the person was.

One thing is certain: that person was not tall.

Liu Jia's lips slowly curled into a smile, but Qin Tianming's heart sank little by little.

That person was heading in their direction.

As the footsteps drew closer, Qin Tianming concluded that the person approaching was Liu Dongmei.

Unexpectedly, Liu Dongmei actually came.

The note clearly stated that Liu Jia wanted to see Liu Dongmei, not himself.

How could Liu Dongmei be allowed to come out?

If it were daytime, it wouldn't be a problem, but it's the middle of the night now.

A young woman went to a cornfield at night to meet a grown man...

This kind of thing feels awkward no matter how you look at it.

"coming."

After getting a clear look at the woman in front of him, Liu Jia slowly said something.

"I know, I saw it too."

As soon as Qin Tianming finished speaking, Liu Jia quickly instructed, "When the two of us are talking, don't interrupt or make any noise!"

"Brother, I've remembered everything you said."

Liu Jia coughed lightly, and the person opposite him paused for a moment before cautiously asking a question.

Is that Liu Jia?

"Yes, I am."

Hearing Liu Dongmei's voice, Qin Tianming felt a mix of emotions.

Especially when he heard Liu Dongmei call Liu Jia, Qin Tianming clenched his fists.

However, Qin Tianming's eyes suddenly lit up.

No wonder Liu Dongmei called Liu Jia so naturally just now; he knows Liu Jia!

Lately, when I'm with Liu Dongmei, I often mention Liu Jia.

Liu Dongmei not only knew that Liu Jia was her aunt's son, but also that Liu Jia was divorced and that he ran a factory.

Liu Dongmei must have met Liu Jia because of me!

Even after they got married, Liu Dongmei still had to call Liu Jia her cousin!

Thinking about this, Qin Tianming's face showed a sense of relief.

At this moment, Liu Dongmei had already walked up to Liu Jia.

Liu Dongmei's hair was unkempt and casually draped over her shoulders. She wore a short-sleeved white vest and dark blue pants, which made her look very clean.

Seeing Liu Dongmei's attire, Qin Tianming thought to himself that she must have rushed out in a hurry, and hadn't even tied her hair up.

"Liu Dongmei, I'm Liu Jia, shall we get to know each other?"

Liu Jia took the initiative to speak.

Liu Dongmei tilted her head and said somewhat shyly, "I know you. I've heard Tianming mention you. You're Tianming's cousin from Xili Village."

Hearing Liu Dongmei say this, Qin Tianming felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey.

Sure enough, I was right. Liu Dongmei met Liu Jia because of me!

If it were another man who wrote her the note, Dongmei wouldn't have come out. She's not that kind of girl!

"Alright, since you know me, I'll be frank. I have a brother who comes from a well-off family. He says he's taken a liking to you and is asking what you think?"

Liu Dongmei froze, her brows furrowing into a knot.

"Why would you be interested in me? I already have a boyfriend."

"Okay, I know what you mean. I'll tell my brother later that I wish you and Tianming a happy and fulfilling life together."

After saying that, Liu Jia turned around.

Before Liu Jia could leave, Liu Dongmei suddenly took a few quick steps and blocked Liu Jia's path.

"We've only exchanged a few words, and you're already leaving? You haven't even told me what's going on with your brother."

"Don't you have a boyfriend now? Actually, this is a difficult situation for me. On one side is my cousin, and on the other side is my brother. I don't want to offend either of them, but I have to give them a reply."

Liu Jia spoke with utmost seriousness, as if it were a genuine fact.

"I know. Since we're already here, let's chat. You said your brother is quite well-off. What makes him so well-off?"

Liu Dongmei seemed to have taken an interest.

Based on just this one sentence, Liu Jia knew that Qin Tianming and Liu Dongmei's relationship was doomed.

Although he was filled with contempt, Liu Jia did not show it.

"The family has six large north-facing rooms, tiled houses, and only one son. They are well-off and also own a factory."

Liu Jia spoke very slowly, giving Liu Dongmei time to think carefully.

Liu Dongmei lowered her head, her heart pounding in her throat.

Someone has taken a liking to me, and he even owns a factory!

These days, there are only a handful of people in the whole village who can afford to build a six-room tiled house in the north, but that person also owns a factory. How rich must he be?

If you really marry someone like that, what will you have to worry about in the future? You can just think about how to live a life of luxury!

Although she was a little smug, Liu Dongmei quickly calmed down.

"How did he fall for me? I have no recollection of it at all."

"I don't know about that. He searched for a long time before finding me. I told him right away that this wouldn't work and that I was my cousin's wife..."

Before Liu Jia could finish speaking, Liu Dongmei suddenly became anxious.

"Brother Liu, what are you saying? What do you mean by 'wife'? That sounds awful! She's still a virgin!"

As they were talking, Liu Dongmei actually started to act coquettishly towards Liu Jia.

Liu Jia turned his head to the side.

This woman is even more outrageous than I imagined!

Qin Tianming, who was hiding in the cornfield, was furious!

"Actually, I know that I feel bad for my cousin for coming to deliver this message to you. After all, you two have a very good relationship, and I didn't handle this matter very well."

"No, Brother Liu, don't think like that. You're in a dilemma too, to balance your brotherhood with your own. What's your brother's name?"

Liu Jia frowned.

"Don't ask so many questions. It's impossible for it to work out anyway, so why make trouble for yourself? Take my advice, living a good life with Tianming is better than anything else."

Liu Jia gave Liu Dongmei careful instructions.

But as soon as she finished speaking, Liu Dongmei burst into tears.

In the darkness, Liu Dongmei's shoulders trembled incessantly, and she was also moving towards Liu Jia, intentionally or unintentionally!

"What's wrong with you? Don't cry. If you didn't know better, you'd think I was bullying you!"

“It’s not you who’s bullying me, it’s Tianming who’s bullying me, Brother Liu. I’m not afraid you’ll laugh at me, but actually, I have my reasons. Tianming and I aren’t a good match.”

Liu Dongmei sniffed hard, her eyes red as she stared at Liu Jia.

"Why is it inappropriate?"

Liu Jia's question also revealed what Qin Tianming was thinking.

Qin Tianming, standing in the cornfield, was completely bewildered.

Everything was fine a couple of days ago, so why is it not suitable today?

The last time I saw Liu Dongmei, she said she was just waiting to marry me. How come after seeing Liu Jia, she suddenly became unsuitable?

“I don’t like Tianming. I know Tianming is a very honest person, but I don’t want to be a victim of an arranged marriage. It’s just that my mother forced me too much that I agreed to marry Tianming.”

“Especially recently, after getting to know Tianming, I feel more and more that we don’t see eye to eye. I’m thinking of talking to Tianming about it in the next couple of days.”

"Brother Liu, what's your brother's name? Does he have any requirements for the woman?"

Liu Jia knew that the moment had come, so he might as well go all out!

"Yes, my brother only has one son. He's worried that some girls are only after his money, so he has one condition: to get to know them on a deeper level first."

"What's the deeper level of this method?"

"That's right, let's get to know each other better first, like going out for a stroll, eating out, and if we can come back the same day, then we can stay at his place."

Liu Jia thought he had been straightforward enough.

Unexpectedly, Liu Dongmei suddenly burst into laughter.

"Brother Liu, you're really funny. Just say, 'Try taking a nap first,' right?"

"Ah, right? I think so!"

Liu Jia, a grown man, blushed to the roots of his neck when he heard Liu Dongmei say that.

But Liu Dongmei on the other side acted as if nothing had happened.

"Alright, let's give it a try first. I don't want to be old-fashioned. If we're not compatible in that area, it's the woman who will suffer. I don't want to live like a widow."

A few meters away.

The blood on Qin Tianming's body had congealed!

Is this still Liu Dongmei?

When he was with her, Liu Dongmei would at most let him touch her hand, and that was considered a treat.

But why is Liu Dongmei so uninhibited in front of Liu Jia?

"Try taking a nap first. I don't want to live a life of widowhood. Where did you hear these things?"

Although they were both of marriageable age and he would secretly meet with Liu Dongmei, the two of them were completely innocent and had never done anything inappropriate.

Where did Liu Dongmei learn those things she just said?

Before Qin Tianming could recover, Liu Dongmei suddenly stepped forward again.

"Brother Liu, I actually have an idea. What do you think of it?"

"I like successful men like you. How about we start dating?"

Liu Jia was completely stunned.

This woman is too fierce!
