Two men’s gazes burned in the open air. Yu Minglang bent down, picked up Xiao Qian’s shoes, and carefully wiped them clean with a tissue. His face had an expression that could disgust Zheng Xu for half a year.

“My girlfriend is quite playful. Sometimes, the things she fancies, can be quite crazy.”

Xiao Qian felt a flare of anger within her.

This shameless guy, the way he was talking made it seem like she liked to roll around in the mud! Yu Minglang may have been shameless for a day or two, but she had her dignity!

She rolled down the car window and leaned out, “Zheng Xu, are you here on business?”

“Hmm.” Zheng Xu looked at Xiao Qian with a gentle expression.

Yu Minglang blocked Zheng Xu’s view by standing in front of the car window and waved Xiao Qian’s shoes at Zheng Xu. “Brother Xu, don’t let us hold you up. You must have several women in downtown waiting for your affectionate attention, right?”

Zheng Xu glanced at him, then said to Xiao Qian, “Dr. Chen, I have to go visit the school. You two, continue having fun.”

After saying this with a disdainful look at Yu Minglang, he said, “Next time you bring Dr. Chen out, I can introduce you to some good places. If you want to fish, you can visit my manor. Don’t come to these downtrodden places anymore, it’s not fun playing in the mud.”

Yu Minglang raised his middle finger at the car exhaust left by Zheng Xu’s retreating vehicle. Zheng Xu had driven into the abandoned school.

After wiping Xiao Qian’s shoes clean, he opened the car door, and tried to imitate gentlemen in movies by holding her little foot and helping her put on her shoes. However, his attempt was met with a sudden kick to his face.

“Yu Xiaoqiang, keep playing your games!”

Yu Minglang learned his lesson this time. He cut a lot of grass and laid it all over the muddy path, then he held her hand to walk to the river.

“Xiao Mei, don’t you think this is incredibly romantic? Docs it feel like we’re on a red carpet?”

Xiao Qian turned her head to one side, refusing to look at him.

Who else would feel like she does? Trudging around in a man’s trousers, the legs rolled up so much, she will never listen to him again. She went from the city to here only to fall into the mud, it’s almost as though she’s lost her marbles.

Yu Minglang’s fishing skills were not bad indeed. Not many people came to fish in this stream, so in no time at all, he had caught quite a few fish.

She sat by the water watching him fish, while Yu Minglang was happily reminiscing his youth.

“This river used to be much deeper than it is now. We would come here to play after school. I would use my family’s sewing needles as fish hooks, and find branches to serve as fishing rods. Every time I could catch a bunch of fish, but I would still get a beating from my dad when I got home. My dad was the worst, eating the fish I caught while still punishing me.”

“Why did he hit you?”

“From the quantity of fish I brought home, he deduced that I had skipped my afternoon classes…” Sometimes, being too capable was not a good thing.

“Pfft!” Xiao Qian found Yu Minglang’s wronged expression back then so funny she let out a laugh.

“Really, that old man usually wasn’t at home. The moment he came back, he would start stirring up trouble. If he hadn’t seriously injured me, it would have been quite a miracle.”

“You must have been quite mischievous when you were a kid.” In that era, the parents’ methods of disciplining their children were simple and crude; if the child was disobedient, they would get a beating. As for someone like Yu Minglang, he would definitely get beaten more often.

Looking at Elder Brother Yu, one could tell that he was the mature one who took up family chores early. Second brother Yu was calm and obedient, Third Brother Yu was a girl, and the youngest one, Yu, was mischievous and playful. Would they let him off without a beating?

“But on second thought, I was indeed quite naughty when I was young. Every day someone would run to my mother to tattle on me. But it wasn’t like I didn’t do anything good. I did some good things too. I even won the Four Virtuous Youths Award.”

Up until high school, Yu Minglang maintained impressive academic results. However, because of his terrible behavior, he was only awarded the model student award, and only once was he ever recognized with the Four Virtuous Youths Awards that represented good virtue.

“When I was watching the television series, one of the aunts told me about it. What did you do back then? Did someone see you helping an old lady cross the road?”

“Do you see a road anywhere around here? Back then, I was praised for leading the charge to extinguish a fire.”

“Extinguish a..fire?”

Yu Minglang glared at her, “In your heart, am I that kind of horrible person?” “Otherwise, do you think you are such a good person?” Xiao Qian pointed at the trousers she was wearing. She looked damn near brain dead in a pair of men’s trousers. Wasn’t this his fault?

“That year, I really risked my life. I nearly died a triumphant death. Do you see those old school buildings in the back? There used to be a warehouse which stored physical education equipment like gymnastic mats and leather balls, all highly flammable items. One day, the warehouse suddenly caught fire. I led my subordinates into the building to fight the fire, nearly choking to death.”

The memories of that incident still lingered in Yu Minglang’s mind.

“At that time, everyone else was in class and hadn’t noticed. I saw black smoke coming out of the warehouse, so I immediately rallied my subordinates to carry water. We split up into three groups: one group went to inform the teacher, another group carried water, and I rushed into the building to check if anyone was inside. As a result, I nearly choked to death from the smoke!”

After a brief thought, Xiao Qian quickly analyzed a few things.

“Firstly, others were in class and you noticed. This indicates that you were skipping class. Also, with you included, your ‘subordinates’ only consisted of three people. And essentially, you didn’t contribute much, almost choking to death?”

Yu Minglang originally wanted to show off his heroic deeds in front of his girlfriend, but his scheme was easily seen through by the clever Xiao Qian. It was quite embarrassing.

“Xiao Mei, why can’t you be a little less intelligent?”

“If I was dumber, would you still be interested in me?”

It wasn’t like she looked down on Yu Minglang. This guy not only cared about looks, but also disliked unintelligent women. It seems he was really lucky to meet her; otherwise, with his character, it would be quite difficult for him to get married.

“No matter how you are, Xiao Mei, I’ll still like you. Come, let’s kiss-”

Xiao Qian used her hand to push his pouting lips flat again. “Hurry up and fish. Once you catch a big fish, I’ll reward you.”

He had caught quite a few fish in a while. All the fish were about the length of a palm and two fingers’ wide. All these fish looked the same, with big heads and thin tails, seeming to have not much meat on them.

“The fish we can catch here are only this big. We call them fat head fish. Their scientific name is ‘Speartail Goby’. This river, in fact, is considered the estuary to the sea. Only two types of fish are found here: fat head fish and barracuda. Although the barracuda is much larger, we can’t catch them with a fishing rod. We would need a net.”

“…So, you have travelled all this way and even made me stumble so many times just to catch these lousy things? This is absolutely useless for a barbecue!”

She had thought that she could enjoy the legendary barbecue fish for lunch. But these tiny and shoddy fish, once roasted, will probably turn into dried fish. Seeing that she was about to get angry again, Yu Minglang quickly explained. “I brought canned picnic food. And a pot. I can make fish soup for you later. These fish make a good soup. Let’s catch a bucket full and take them home for your aunt. When she sees this, she’ll think, ‘Wow, this future son-in-law is too reliable!’ We can also dry out the rest of the fish!”

Xiao Qian rubbed her temples. “My mother would certainly be very happy. Any mother from the bride’s side would love to see a man like you.”

Being complimented made Yu Minglang’s teeth shine in a wide smile.

“Does that mean you think I am really good, especially dutiful?”
