However, as he left, Liu Ergou thought to himself, When I get the chance, I have to buy Lu Shuangyue a new dress.
Soon, Liu Ergou left the hotel. As a cold wind blew through the streets, the slight alcoholic buzz he had felt vanished without a trace.
Just as Liu Ergou was about to hail a cab, a woman's voice suddenly rang out from behind him.
"Is that you? Liu Ergou!"
Hearing his na, Liu Ergou turned to look. Before him was a woman in a leather jacket and pants, perched on a motorcycle with her helt on. Her figure was stunningly curvaceous.
Seeing this woman, Liu Ergou raised an eyebrow and searched his mory. He was certain he didn't recognize her.
"Uh... may I ask who you are?" Liu Ergou inquired politely.
Seeing his puzzled expression, the woman on the motorcycle grew a bit impatient. She quickly took off her helt, revealing a delicate face beneath it, adorned with heavy makeup.
"It's ! Don't tell you've forgotten! It was that day in the mall. I fainted, and you saved ."
With that reminder, Liu Ergou imdiately recalled.
So it was her! I didn't recognize her with the helt on.
"Oh, I rember now! It's you! How have you been? Is everything alright?"
Seeing that Liu Ergou finally recognized her, the woman breathed a sigh of relief. She revved her motorcycle, pulled up in front of him, and patted the seat behind her.
"Liu Ergou, where are you headed? I'll give you a ride!"
Hearing this, Liu Ergou glanced at the woman, then at the back of the motorcycle, and couldn't help feeling a bit awkward.
The motorcycle seat is so small, and I'm a pretty big guy. If I get on, I'll be pressed right up against her. If it were soone I knew well, like Shuangyue, I definitely wouldn't refuse. But I've only ever treated this woman's illness.
Seeing his hesitation, the woman imdiately pulled a second helt from her storage box and thrust it into his hands.
"Stop dilly-dallying! A big man like you? Get on!" she insisted. "My na is Fu Ya! I'm 29. How old are you?"
"Twenty-three," Liu Ergou answered truthfully.
Upon hearing this, Fu Ya's spirits lifted instantly.
"Hahaha, I'm older than you! You'd better call Big Sis!"
Liu Ergou didn't say anything in response. He simply put on the helt and quietly sat behind Fu Ya, trying to maintain so distance between them.
Just then, Fu Ya spoke again. "Little brother Ergou, hold onto my waist. You can't just sit back there without holding on."
Liu Ergou shook his head and refused. "That's not really appropriate. I'll be fine like this, trust !"
Fu Ya was startled for a mont, then she laughed and teased him. "Seriously, little brother Ergou, why are you so shy? Have you never even dated before? I'm telling you, a motorcycle is different. You have to hold my waist, or you'll be sorry!"
Nevertheless, Liu Ergou still refused.
This left Fu Ya feeling a bit helpless. After warning him one last ti, she put on her helt and started the engine.
The next second, the motorcycle let out a low roar and shot forward like an arrow from a bow. The acceleration was so fast that even Liu Ergou, with his Body Tempering Art, couldn't react in ti and was nearly thrown off. Fortunately, his quick reflexes kicked in, and he instinctively wrapped his arms around Fu Ya's slender waist, saving himself from being flung into the road.
Feeling Liu Ergou's hands around her waist, Fu Ya couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! See, little brother Ergou? Now you get it! I wasn't lying to you. Hold on tight, I'm speeding up!"
At that mont, Liu Ergou didn't dare be careless. He clung tightly to Fu Ya, certainly not wanting to be thrown from the motorcycle. As he held on, Fu Ya could feel his thick, powerful arms even through her leather jacket. This made her blush uncontrollably under her helt.
Despite Fu Ya's seemingly bold nature, she had actually never even held a boy's hand. Liu Ergou was the first man to ever have such close physical contact with her.
Riding Fu Ya's fast motorcycle, they returned to Fengzhu Village in just half an hour.
Getting off the bike, Liu Ergou's legs felt a bit weak. This was my first ti on a motorcycle. I had no idea they could be so fast.
Seeing his state, Fu Ya had to stifle a laugh. But then, as if rembering sothing, she pulled an invitation from her pocket and handed it to him.
"Little brother Ergou, this weekend is my birthday! This is an invitation to my party. You have to co. You're my lifesaver, so you can't be absent!"
Without giving Liu Ergou a chance to argue, Fu Ya revved her motorcycle and disappeared down the road of Fengzhu Village.
Liu Ergou, anwhile, pocketed the invitation. He thought about the date and realized it was Friday, aning Fu Ya's birthday was just one day away.
Soon, he returned ho. When he got there, his sister-in-law had already gone to rest. Liu Ergou quietly took a cold shower and went to bed, where he quickly fell into a deep sleep.
「At sunrise」
Just as the sun peeked over the horizon, Liu Ergou woke with a start. He dressed and went out into the yard. He found a clean spot, sat down, and began to cultivate the Body Tempering Art. As before, he absorbed the first glimr of nascent purple qi from the dawn into his body.
The strand of purple qi circulated within him, strengthening his physique. The sensation made Liu Ergou hum softly with his eyes closed. But the feeling was fleeting; in less than half an hour, the purple qi was completely exhausted.
Afterward, Liu Ergou opened his eyes, stretched his body, and started to prepare breakfast. Since I'm up early, I won't trouble my sister-in-law with cooking. Plus, after we eat, I can get so work done in the fields.
Soon, it was broad daylight, and Xu Yulan got up. When she erged, she was surprised and delighted to see the breakfast Liu Ergou had already prepared. The two ate together, then put on their straw hats, grabbed a jug of water and a hoe, and prepared to head to the fields to weed.
Just as they were about to leave, Little Rou, who had only returned ho two days ago, ca running over, crying. This left Liu Ergou puzzled, wondering what was wrong with her.
Before Liu Ergou could even speak, Little Rou blurted out, "Er Gou, you have to help !"
