Chapter 24: Niu Niu’s Explosion (2/2)

“I was almost scared to death back then. Your strength as a kid was no joke. That night, our Little Feng’s Niu Niu really swelled up. If he can’t find a wife in the future, he might really blame you for it.”

It was unclear whether Feng’s mother said this intentionally or not.

This old funny story made Shen Lingyao’s face turn red with a mix of emotions. She wanted to marry Zhao Qingfeng for who he was, Niu Niu or not.

After all, their decade-long relationship didn’t rely on Zhao Qingfeng’s Niu Niu.

And it wouldn’t in the future!

If her feelings were not sincere, let Brother Qingfeng’s Niu Niu explode immediately as proof of her true heart!

“Mom Feng, I fear the rain might get heavier. I should head home now. Rest well, and I’ll ask for leave for Brother Qingfeng on Monday morning.”

After leaving these words in a hurry, Shen Lingyao ran home with an umbrella.

The storm outside was fierce, flipping her umbrella several times. By the time she got home, her white dress was soaked through.

Just as she dried off after taking off her clothes, her father called. The storm was too severe, so he and Ding Xiang would stay in the countryside until the weather cleared the next day. “Yaoyao, make sure the garage door is closed, don’t let the car get flooded.”

After her father finished speaking, Ding Xiang inquired about the red envelope.

Shen Lingyao recounted the incident, leading Ding Xiang to sigh, “Well, if she won’t accept it, she won’t. Just help her out more in the future. Your primary task now is to tutor Little Feng well and strive to get him into a university, even if it’s self-financed.”

Shen Lingyao wanted to tutor.

But Zhao Qingfeng was nowhere to be seen.

After hanging up, she began writing in her diary as usual.

“May 14, 2001. The storm outside is bending the trees, and my white dress got soaked in the rain.”

“This was the dress I wore for him to see at the amusement park, but he missed out.”

“Bad guy, didn’t you promise to come back even if it was raining knives? Why aren’t you back yet?”

“What am I thinking? Only a fool would come back in this rain. He’s a bad guy, not a fool.”

“Don’t come back, unless he really is a super fool…”

Shen Lingyao wished Zhao Qingfeng would surprise her.

But deep down, she didn’t want him to risk the rain.

She stood at the window, looking out. The street had only a few tricycles and two or three people struggling against the rain and wind with their umbrellas slanted.

No need to think about it.

Not to mention coming back from the city.

Even if she wanted to go shopping in the trade city now, it would be hard to hail a taxi.

Time flew by.

The evening quickly darkened.

The storm outside continued relentlessly, the wind howling, making the windows rattle.

Shen Lingyao had no appetite for dinner and glanced outside numerous times.

It was nearly nine o’clock at night before she finally sat down at the table to study.

An hour later.

Sleepiness overcame her.

Shen Lingyao locked the front door and all the windows and crawled wearily into bed.

She quickly fell into a dream.

In her dream, Wang Qiang shamelessly came over with a bag of snacks again, knocking on the window with little stones, refusing to leave.

Bang.

Bang.

Gradually, Shen Lingyao opened her sleepy eyes.

The storm was still raging outside, and the windows were still making noise.

But.

Some of the sounds seemed unnatural, almost like stones hitting the window.

In a daze, Shen Lingyao couldn’t distinguish between dream and reality.

She sleepily opened the curtains to look outside and saw a dark figure under the rain, waving vigorously, seemingly shouting something.

The face was unclear.

But the wide smile showing two rows of white teeth was unmistakable.
