754: 754 Chapter Mantou is very sweet!
At that mont, Xia Yuqing stood up and approached Tang Zhong.
“Tang Zhong, have you really forgotten everything?”
At this ti, Tang Zhong and Tang Xinglou were shocked to see Xia Yuqing suddenly appear.
Looking at Xia Yuqing, Tang Zhong recalled the last ti in Jianghai, when Xia Yuqing had ntioned him forgetting sothing.
He truly couldn’t rember.
“Yuqing…!” Tang Zhong called out to the beauty in front of him.
“Tang Zhong…” Xia Yuqing shouted, like a wounded woman.
Tang Zhong was stunned; he had never seen Xia Yuqing like this before.
This was not the Xia Yuqing he rembered, because he had never seen Yuqing so furious.
Although Yuqing had always been harsh towards him, Tang Zhong could feel that there was no real anger in her words, but this ti it was truly different.
He stared straight at Xia Yuqing, just standing there.
But Xia Yuqing beca more and more agitated: “You’ve forgotten, you really have forgotten, you’ve forgotten everything, completely!”
“What exactly is it?” Tang Zhong asked.
He knew he must have forgotten sothing, which was why Xia Yuqing was so agitated, but what could it be?
Tang Xinglou and Jiang Shuiyue stood to one side, silent.
They couldn’t intervene in the affairs of the younger generation.
Xia Yuqing’s eyes began to redden as she looked at Tang Zhong and yelled, “Tang Zhong…
Tang Zhong, you’ve forgotten, you’ve actually forgotten the thing I treasure most, Tang Zhong, didn’t you say you were going to marry ?”
Marry ?
Tang Zhong was taken aback.
“You once said you would definitely marry in this lifeti, but…
you said you would marry soone else!” In that mont, Xia Yuqing burst into tears, squatting on the ground and beginning to sob.
As Tang Zhong watched Xia Yuqing, a series of images flashed through his mind.
They were very old images.
It was a scene of a little girl and a little boy together.
Thinking of this, Tang Zhong clenched his fists.
mories flooded his mind.
At that mont, Xia Yuqing dried her tears, stood up from the ground, and looked at Tang Zhong.
“I know you’ve forgotten everything, it doesn’t matter, you’ve forgotten, but I still rember, so now I will tell you everything!”
“There once was a pair of a little boy and a little girl!”
“Their lives were hard,” Xia Yuqing said with a smile, “the boy said he was abandoned by his family, and the girl, an orphan since childhood, they t, and then they began to rely on each other for survival, trying their best to live in this society.
Every day, they struggled just for sustenance, they’ve stolen, robbed, done many things, that period, for the little girl, was actually very happy!” Xia Yuqing said with a smile, but tears were still welling up in the corners of her eyes.
“She was really happy, so happy!” Xia Yuqing’s eyes brimd with tears as she looked at Tang Zhong.
“One day, the little girl fell ill, a very serious illness.
She was pale as death, and the little boy was frantic, utterly frantic!”
Tang Zhong’s body shook, those mories having been fully unearthed.
“The little girl said she was hungry, so the little boy told her he would find her sothing to eat, he was in such a rush, and so foolish, that he just went off and stole.
He entered a stead bun shop and took buns right in front of the owner.
Of course, he got caught!” Xia Yuqing seed to recall a sweet mory and laughed.
“Caught, the people at the bun shop beat up the little boy.
They punched and kicked him, calling him an unwanted child.
The boy did not say a word, just waited to be hit, curled up like a shrimp.
After they had their turn, they let him go, and the little boy bolted as if nothing had happened, stopping only when he was far away.
Looking at the bun in his hand, he gave a silly laugh.
He had curled up, not just from the beating but to protect the bun he’d stolen for the little girl.
The bun was covered in his fresh blood!”
“The little boy just wanted to bring the bun back quickly so the little girl could eat!” At this point, Tang Zhong interjected.
But Xia Yuqing ignored Tang Zhong and continued, “When the little girl saw the little boy’s foolish figure and ate the bun he’d protected, it was the sweetest bun she’d ever tasted in her life.
The sweetness went straight to her heart…
even though the bun had been dyed red with the boy’s blood…”
“After eating the bun, the little girl’s illness began to improve.
When she learned everything, she was genuinely moved to tears.
She hadn’t expected the little boy to do so much for her, and especially seeing the little boy’s face, now bloodied from the beating, she wept bitterly…
At that mont, she embraced the little boy, wanting to show so care to the person before her!”
“Like a true man, the boy gestured with his hands, telling the girl it was nothing, ‘I’m a man, and I must protect you.’ At that mont, the girl’s heart lted.
Though she was young, she wanted to marry this little boy.
So, she said, ‘When we grow up, I’ll marry you!'”
“She really mustered all her courage to say that because she truly liked the little boy.
She was very shy and didn’t know how the boy felt!” Xia Yuqing said.
“Luckily, right after the little girl spoke, the little boy boldly patted his chest and assured her, ‘Don’t worry, when I grow up, I will marry you.
I’ll make you the most beautiful bride in the world…’ That promise, the little girl rembered, holding it close in her heart!” Xia Yuqing finished, then looked at Tang Zhong, pointing to her heart, and said, “Right here!”
Tang Zhong was at a loss for words, as the scenes played back in his mind.
He was completely bewildered.
Once, he did indeed make that promise, but back then, he was just a child, rely trying to encourage the little girl in hopes she would overco her illness.
However, he never expected that she would rember it so dearly.
Xia Yuqing continued, “From the mont the little boy promised to marry the little girl, she began to grow up.
She wanted to be a worthy woman, to stand by the boy’s side without holding him back.
For years, she worked tirelessly, and she also learned to take the responsibility of a wife.
She started to manage the boy’s finances because that would be her future dowry.
She would not let the boy squander it.
She began to take care of everything pertaining to the boy…
She was ready to devote everything to him, but the girl was reserved.
She didn’t like to express her love outright and was always waiting, waiting for the boy to rember everything.
So she waited, for a very long ti, only to be devastated by the news!”
“The little boy had fallen in love with soone else!” Xia Yuqing managed to say before tears began to flow down her cheeks again.
“And he’d forgotten all he had once promised!”
“But the girl didn’t bla the boy, because the world changes, people change, love changes.
She could understand so of it, who can love soone for a lifeti?
What broke her heart the most was that the boy had forgotten all of this, everything she had cherished, everything she had buried deep in her heart!”
“I…” Tang Zhong found himself at a loss for words, as if he was mute.
After all, he had personally uttered that promise.
“The girl doesn’t bla the boy because she has already experienced great happiness, having tasted the sweetest bun in the world!” Xia Yuqing said, with tears streaming down her face at this point.
(Yes, this was the reason why Xia Yuqing controlled Tang Zhong’s finances!)
