Lively Atmosphere

Xu Rui lit a cigarette and ambled towards Zhang Xiaoli's rental place, thinking he could take advantage of the situation even more at noon, so he quickly picked up his pace.

Zhang Xiaoli's rental was in a corner on the second floor, very secluded. Usually, no one bothered her at noon, so Xu Rui was quite bold and visited often.

As soon as he entered, Xu Rui was captivated by the scene before him. Zhang Xiaoli had finished showering at some point and was wearing a small camisole, bending over to look for clothes. Xu Rui glanced from behind and instantly lost his mind.

He quietly closed the door and locked it, his eyes still fixed on the enticing sight.

"Hey, why are you here? I didn't make food for you."

Zhang Xiaoli wasn't overly surprised; it wasn't the first time Xu Rui had been there. Zhang Xiaoli was about to get up to serve the food.

Xu Rui lunged forward and gave Zhang Xiaoli a big bear hug from behind. He knew how bad his bad breath was, so he wisely didn't try to kiss her little mouth.

"Hey, stop messing around, let go quickly."

Zhang Xiaoli thought Xu Rui was joking and calmly struggled, which was like adding fuel to the fire.

"I want to eat you, not eat food," Xu Rui said indistinctly.

Zhang Xiaoli was picked up by him like an eagle catching a chick and laid down.

His obese body pressed down on Zhang Xiaoli, almost making her unable to breathe.

"You bastard, you're actually serious!"

Zhang Xiaoli, realizing something was wrong, became a little flustered.

At this moment, Xu Rui couldn't hear anything...

Zhang Xiaoli hadn't expected anyone to come at noon. After showering, she had entered the room without underwear, planning to eat and then sleep comfortably before going to work.

Ultimately, with Zhang Xiaoli half-resisting and half-yielding, she was taken down by Xu Rui...

However, the inexperienced Xu Rui, in his overly excited state the first time, finished in less than two minutes.

"You fucking idiot!"

Zhang Xiaoli frowned and cursed, then directly picked up her clothes, put them on, and got out of bed to eat, not caring about Xu Rui's well-being.

The panting fat man took a long time to recover, slowly put on his clothes, and walked over with a playful smile.

"Just be with me. We'll live a good life together from now on."

Zhang Xiaoli held her rice bowl and casually shoveled a couple of mouthfuls, muttering without lifting her head.

"Do you have money? What will you use to marry me?"

"Of course I do, what do you want?"

Xu Rui, still wanting more, put his arm around Zhang Xiaoli's slender waist and coaxed her.

"Buy me a watch. I've wanted one for a long time. Will you buy it?"

Zhang Xiaoli knew Xu Rui's character and didn't take him seriously, continuing to eat.

"I'll go buy it in a bit."

Xu Rui's firm answer made Zhang Xiaoli turn her head in surprise.

"You're not messing with me, are you?"

"You'll know when we go. I can't eat you, can I?" After saying that, his hands started moving restlessly again!

Having tasted the sweetness of a woman for the first time, he certainly didn't want to miss the opportunity. He had to shed some blood to get some return.

As a salesman, Xu Rui understood the principle of "you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a cub."

"Don't touch me, talk about it after you fulfill your promise."

Zhang Xiaoli broke free from Xu Rui's embrace, not letting him succeed again, then handed him the bowl in her hand.

"You eat. I didn't make food for you, just make do with a little. You can buy something when we go out later!"

Then Zhang Xiaoli started changing clothes by the bed, not bothering to cover herself. Anyway, the fat guy had gotten everything, so there was no need to care about these things.

Xiaoli had been with her hooligan boyfriend for a long time and had seen everything. She didn't take Xu Rui's rude behavior today seriously at all. She had let Xu Rui take advantage of her plenty of times before.

Xu Rui ate the half bowl of rice left for him completely. It was definitely not enough. Seeing the fruit on the table, he unceremoniously picked it up and started gnawing on it fiercely. He could save some money on food when they went out later.

Finally, after eating three apples, Xu Rui was barely full.

"Let's go, how much longer do you want to dawdle?"

Zhang Xiaoli lay on the bed with bare feet, looking at him with a disdainful expression.

"Go, go, go." Xu Rui came to the bed, picked up her feet, and nibbled on them a couple of times before Xiaoli laughed and pulled away.

"Get lost, don't push your luck!"

Zhang Xiaoli kicked him, and finally got up satisfied, put on her shoes, and set off.

Finally, after wandering around the mall for a long time, Xu Rui, feeling the pain like cutting flesh, gritted his teeth and finally bought Zhang Xiaoli a white women's watch. It cost over two hundred yuan, which broke his heart, but he put on a tough, indifferent expression.

Zhang Xiaoli, having gotten something tangible, was also extremely happy. Her good-for-nothing hooligan boyfriend, besides venting his beastly desires, either beat or cursed her, and sometimes even asked her for money. He was usually nowhere to be seen, often disappearing for several days without reason, and she never dared to interfere. She was truly beaten into submission and completely obedient!

After a few sweet words from Zhang Xiaoli, Xu Rui was so coaxed that he couldn't tell north from south. He confidently patted his chest and said that from now on, she could ask for anything she wanted, and he would agree to all of Zhang Xiaoli's requests.

After strolling for a while longer, the two went to work together.

Li Yang had promised Manman he would meet her for lunch, so he kept his word and went to see her.

"I missed you so much, baby,"

Manman, dressed in professional attire, instantly exuded a different charm that Li Yang found quite captivating.

Manman generously threw herself into Li Yang's arms, kissing him greedily a few times before finally pulling him away, satisfied, to eat.

"I want to eat wontons!"

Manman stood at the entrance of a clean-looking shop and pointed inside.

"Then let's go! What's so hard about wanting to eat?"

Li Yang readily agreed. The two held hands and went inside. There were quite a few people during lunchtime, but most were young girls. What grown man would crave this?

Finally, Manman ordered her favorite filling and also got Li Yang a mixed plate of cold vegetarian dishes, a plate of cold beef salad, and two bottles of Hai Bi. Li Yang wasn't picky and ordered the same as Manman, but a large portion.

In the end, Manman thoughtfully didn't let Li Yang pay, taking out her wallet from her bag and paying the bill herself.

While waiting for the food, Manman carefully picked up a piece of beef with her chopsticks and fed it to Li Yang.

"Is it good, dear?"

Manman's gentle, watery gaze deeply moved Li Yang. Just like that, the two of them affectionately fed each other!

Finally, Manman finished off the wontons Li Yang hadn't eaten, while she slowly drank her soda, tenderly wiping the corners of Li Yang's mouth.

"Hehehe"

"Eat slowly, baby,"

Manman laughed happily. Seeing how enthusiastically Li Yang ate, she was very satisfied herself. Eating a lot meant he could work hard, which was also Manman's expectation of Li Yang.

After eating, Manman was reluctant to let Li Yang go, so she accompanied him shopping for a while. Li Yang thoughtfully bought Manman a few pieces of sexy summer style lingerie.

"Baby, I'll wear them tomorrow when I go to the banquet with you!"

Manman was also very satisfied with what Li Yang bought her, and whispered softly in Li Yang's ear.

Manman stood in front of the mirror and generously held the lingerie up against herself a few times. Afterward, Li Yang paid and pulled her away by the hand. He didn't want other men to covet Manman's beauty and charm.

Finally, it was getting late. Li Yang walked Manman to the entrance of her shop and handed her the bag containing her purse and the lingerie.

"Dear, if you're not with me tonight, what will I do if I miss you?"

Manman pouted, expressing her dissatisfaction.

"Just bear with it for one night, be good. We have to go early tomorrow morning to pick up the bride!"

Li Yang stroked Manman's cheek and said with a teasing smile.

"Alright then, remember to call me when you get back tonight, no backing out." Manman gently hugged Li Yang, finally returning to the shop reluctantly.

After getting off work in the afternoon, Li Yang, Manman, and Xu Rui took the bus back to the 150 Hospital terminal.

"How are we getting there?"

Li Yang asked Xu Rui, holding Manman's hand.

"Bus 54 is convenient, it goes directly to the terminal," Xu Rui was in high spirits today after having some fun. He lit a cigarette and took a comfortable puff.

Manman knew Li Yang didn't smoke, which was another reason girls liked him. No one wanted to smell secondhand smoke every day. People who didn't smoke always found the smell of smoke the most unpleasant.

Li Yang didn't want Manman to be bothered by the smoke, so he gently pulled her back a few steps.

"What you said works too. We'll definitely be drinking then. Whoever has a car can drive back tonight."

"Let's go," Xu Rui finished his cigarette in three puffs, casually tossed the butt, and went to find his bicycle.

"So uncivilized,"

Manman muttered to herself, looked at the smoking culprit on the ground, and stepped forward, stomping it out with her high heel!

"Let's go, baby, I'll take you home first," Li Yang also pulled Manman towards the bicycle!

Manman, in low spirits, let Li Yang take her to the bottom of her apartment building.

Finally, at the door of her third-floor home, she hugged Li Yang and kissed him passionately!

"Alright, baby," Li Yang gently patted her, reminding her.

"Then be careful on your way," Manman waved at Li Yang, then opened the door and went home!

"I'd say this little girl looks like she's determined to marry you!" Xu Rui casually teased as they rode their bikes on the road.

"Cut it out! Don't worry about me, put in more effort yourself. When are you going to get a wife?"

"Soon, I have a feeling I might get married next year," Xu Rui said with a serious face, talking nonsense, not knowing where he got his confidence from.

The two chatted and quickly arrived at the village. They casually left their bicycles at the Village Entrance and walked to the bus stop to wait for the Bus 54 coming from the east.

This bus departed from Mudan Square in Jianxi District and arrived at the terminal, Yanqiu Market, which was also the border of Yiyang.

Yue Xiaodan would be back the day after tomorrow, on her last day. Otherwise, Li Yang wouldn't have agreed to take Manman to the banquet. The timing was all arranged, but thinking about it, it was still a bit tiring!

Summer days are the longest. Li Yang checked his watch; it was already seven o'clock, and there was no sign of darkness yet!

After a while, the bus slowly arrived at the Xu JiaYing stop. Seeing that Xu Rui wasn't moving, Li Yang took out three yuan and put them in the fare box.

The fare was one yuan fifty per person. Xu Rui smiled and thanked Li Yang for his generosity.

The two of them found empty seats and sat down together...

"Oh, you two are really busy people, you're the only ones left,"

As soon as they reached the main entrance, Wang Long came out to greet them excitedly. The courtyard was also bustling with activity; neighbors from the village had all come to join the fun.

Wang Long led the two directly to the second floor. His new house was also on the second floor, decorated so luxuriously and grandly that it was no less impressive than a house bought in the city.

His father was a retired veteran and very capable. He also had an older sister who wasn't very pretty, plump and wearing glasses, but she had a great temperament. Two years ago, she married into a family with good financial conditions.

Now the whole family was putting their heart into organizing this wedding for Wang Long, their only son.

On the large open-air platform outside on the second floor, a large charcoal grill was set up. Zhang Xiangbei was surprisingly skillfully grilling various ingredients.

"You two are really busy."

The speaker was He Junjun. He was also a noticeable presence there, always restless.

Then Li Yang greeted Zhang Bao, Qin Shou, Zhang Meimei, Zhang Hua, and other old acquaintances one by one. Afterward, everyone started drinking and chatting.

"Come, come, the skewers are ready,"

With a shout, a large bunch of lamb skewers that had just been placed on the table were instantly snatched up!

"Holy crap, don't eat anything when we go to the bride's house later,"

He Junjun looked at the empty plate in front of him and joked with everyone.

Hahaha, everyone ate and laughed!

Xu Rui, looking like a starving ghost, started gnawing fiercely with both hands.

A group of buddies sat around the table, eating, drinking, and chatting. The sky gradually darkened. Wang Long casually turned on the searchlight on the wall, and the courtyard instantly became as bright as day.

"What's wrong with your nose? You seem to be quite uncomfortable,"

Li Yang hadn't been to a gathering in a long time, and he was in a good mood at the moment. He stood up and wandered around, holding half a bottle of beer in his hand. He had only eaten a little cold dish and two skewers of lamb. Later, he had to go pick up the quilts and eat at the bride's house. Li Yang was experienced, so he didn't eat too much, leaving some room in his stomach.

Wang Long was running around everywhere because he had to entertain the distinguished guests who came to congratulate him.

He had just come up, constantly wiping his nose with paper. Li Yang was curious and asked him about it.

"It's nothing, I have rhinitis. It's been many years, don't worry about it."

Wang Long was getting married tomorrow, so he was naturally excited. He also felt warm about Li Yang's concern.

"I say, buddy, don't be careless. Go see a doctor when you have time. If you cure it, you won't have to suffer!"

"Okay, I'll go after I'm done being busy."

Wang Long didn't take his chronic problem seriously at all. If he could have thought years later that he should have listened to Li Yang's kind advice at that time, his life wouldn't have ended on that young day. There was no turning back, what a pity, life would not come again...

"Let's go, it's time to go to the bride's house to pick up the quilts and put up the wedding characters," Qin Shou came up to everyone with an excited look and urged them.

"Let's go, let's go, buddies, get moving,"

He Junjun also returned to a serious demeanor and began to arrange everyone's tasks in an orderly manner.

A noisy group of people arrived at the main entrance. Two vans were parked on the street, which were just right for carrying people and things without delay.

After discussion, seven people went. There were too many to fit, and there would be no place to put the quilts.

Li Yang didn't smoke, so he quickly grabbed the passenger seat, which was a perk. He opened the window to let the smoke out, feeling quite comfortable.

Transparent tape and wedding characters of different sizes were already prepared in the car.

Upon arrival, the people at the bride's house had been waiting for a long time. Liu Yingying's parents were very satisfied with this marriage. Wang Long's father was a well-known capable person in the nearby villages. For their daughter to marry into such a family was a blessing in three lifetimes. They warmly prepared a large table of good wine and dishes to entertain the young men who came!
