Walking on the street, Liu Duo did not take to heart what the other women had previously discussed. Naturally, she would never allow her husbands to get another wife, but if they suggested this to her, she would not stop them.
Instead, she would provide them sufficient funds to have a grand wedding, and bring home a beautiful bride.
She had almost reached the family farm when, from a distance, she saw strong, muscular Ye Yang with a hoe in hand, busy digging at the soil.
She carried a smile and walked nearer before calling out to him, “Yang.”
Ye Yang looked over to her.
He never expected Liu Duo would appear just as he was thinking about her.
He was quite surprised, but remained stoic and icy cold as he said, “What brings you back?”
They should be flower viewing now, and they said they would return in the afternoon. Why had they returned so much earlier?
It was one hour to lunchtime.
Liu Duo waved at him, calling him to come take a rest.
“We wanted to look at flowers and maybe pick some lotuses, but a woman came looking for Dongfang and made a scene, so Ling and I came back.”
Ye Yang walked to her carrying his hoe. He did not continue to probe, but merely nodded in acknowledgement.
Ye Yang came to her side, put down the hoe, and asked, “Where’s Ling?”
They went out together, yet she came back alone?
“Ling went home. We met some villagers and they were on their way to our house to sell tomatoes, so I thought I’d let Ling have a go at managing the accounts.”
Ye Yang did not ask more questions. Both of them sat down on the ground under a large tree.
Ye Yang turned his shirt into a makeshift cushion for Liu Duo to sit on.
“Yang,” Liu Duo asked curiously, tilting her head, “Why didn’t you ask about the woman who was making a scene? The one who made us decide to return early.”
For the first time she realized she could be quite snoopy at times.
Ye Yang grabbed a towel and wiped away his sweat. He looked at his wife’s adorable face and countered with a question, “Why should I ask that?”
Er…
Could they try to have a nice talk?
For a moment Liu Duo did not know how to respond to him. Her dorky expression made Ye Yang really happy, but his face remained icy cold and emotionless.
A short while later, Liu Duo fondly gave his shoulders a gentle push, “Yang, just ask about the woman. Honestly, she’s a beauty to behold! She could even be Dongfang’s fiancee!
Liu Duo might not like Wang Xiangyun’s problematic attitude, but she had to give credit to the woman’s appearance.
“Oh,” Ye Yang mumbled a syllable and nothing else.
At that moment, Liu Duo felt she was almost going mad. Talking to a blockhead was so tiring! He simply would not keep up with her.
As though he had read her thoughts, Ye Yang faced her and spoke slowly, “All I know is, I have a wonderful wife with me right now. What do other beautiful women, or another person’s fiancee have to do with me?”
In other words, to me, you are the fairest one of all!
To him, no other woman could match with Liu Duo’s beauty!
Liu Duo surely was not expecting that. She did not reply. Her heartbeat accelerated as her cheeks eventually flushed red from the flirting.
Ye Yang, who usually kept his feelings hidden, could certainly reveal his romantic side at the most unexpected times.
Ye Yang saw her blushing in silence and added, “Little Duo, do you still want me to ask? Let me see…”
