Protagonist:
Li Xiulan
Wang Xiaohua carried Zhang Ruoshui's backpack, and used the room key to open the hotel room door.
"This room is a bit shabby, but staying one night shouldn't be a problem."
Wang Xiaohua glanced around the room.
This was a single room, with only one bed, a computer desk, a bedside table, a bathroom, and then also a small window.
The price wasn't expensive either; staying one night cost only 70 yuan.
However, cheap as it was, it still looked quite clean and tidy.
At least there was no strange smell in the room, and the bedding was also clean.
"Right, what was the name of that movie you said you wanted to watch?"
Wang Xiaohua took the initiative to open Zhang Ruoshui's backpack and took out her laptop for her.
Zhang Ruoshui's face flushed slightly, and she stammered:
"Wait and you'll know."
She hurriedly took the laptop from Wang Xiaohua's hands, placed it on the desk, and pressed the power button.
Then she rushed to find the mouse in her backpack.
Finding the mouse, she clicked a folder on the desktop, then went to find the movie she had downloaded.
Wang Xiaohua watched from the side, noticing her hands were trembling slightly.
"What's wrong with you?"
Wang Xiaohua felt baffled, so he asked this.
He didn't understand; it was just watching a movie, was Zhang Ruoshui really this nervous?
"No... nothing, I'll look... found it, found it, it's this movie..."
Zhang Ruoshui clicked play.
Wang Xiaohua had just seen the opening when his expression involuntarily froze:
"The Green Chair?"
Many memories surged into his heart uncontrollably all at once.
Back then, he and Li Jianjia were able to formally establish their relationship precisely because of this movie's enlightenment.
At that time, it was his roommate Wei Qian who recommended it to him.
Back then Li Jianjia had traveled thousands of miles from Guangzhou to Beijing to find him; Li Jianjia had already laid her cards on the table to him, but he was still hesitating indecisively. Finally, under Wei Qian's instigation, he watched this movie, and then with his blood boiling he went to find Li Jianjia, and after that everything fell into place naturally.
That seemed to have been a very long time ago, so long ago that Wang Xiaohua felt his memories were somewhat blurry.
Actually it hadn't been that long ago either; it was just a few years ago.
The reason Wang Xiaohua felt it was long ago was because his subconscious was deliberately sealing away all memories related to him and Li Jianjia, so as not to let himself be in so much pain.
The clearer those memories related to Li Jianjia were, the more painful he became.
"Brother Xiao Hua, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Ruoshui inadvertently looked back at Wang Xiaohua, discovered his expression was somewhat dull, and couldn't help but ask.
"Oh... nothing, continue watching..."
Wang Xiaohua's body trembled slightly, and he hurriedly pulled himself back from the memories.
Zhang Ruoshui asked again:
"Do you have something on your mind?"
Wang Xiaohua smiled bitterly:
"No, no, just watch the movie properly, why ask that?"
But Zhang Ruoshui said:
"But I clearly saw you looked like you had something on your mind just now."
Zhang Ruoshui pressed pause on the movie; it had just started, not even entering those scenes unsuitable for children, and she didn't want to watch anymore. Instead she turned to face Wang Xiaohua, her two clear large eyes looking at Wang Xiaohua so sincerely:
"Brother Xiao Hua, whatever you have on your mind, you can tell me; I can be your tree hole!"
Wang Xiaohua didn't know what to say for a moment.
He didn't know how to tell Zhang Ruoshui.
And he felt Zhang Ruoshui was silly; she probably wouldn't understand even if he told her.
Zhang Ruoshui asked again at this time:
"Brother Xiao Hua, is it that you don't want to watch this movie with me?"
Wang Xiaohua didn't answer this question, but countered:
"You tell me honestly, who gave you the idea to watch this movie together with me."
Zhang Ruoshui immediately looked completely surprised:
"Brother Xiao Hua, you even know this? How are you so smart? I didn't say anything, yet you guessed someone made me show you this movie; you're amazing!"
Wang Xiaohua didn't know whether to cry or laugh; this silly girl really couldn't hide anything.
Zhang Ruoshui added:
"It was Sister Juan who recommended this movie to me; she also said it's suitable for the two of us to watch together in the evening. Have you seen this movie before?"
Wang Xiaohua nodded.
Zhang Ruoshui immediately became nervous:
"With whom did you watch it? Do you have another woman now?"
Wang Xiaohua couldn't bear to deceive her, so he said:
"I watched this movie before, and then I confirmed the relationship with my wife."
"Who are you, your deceased..." Zhang Ruoshui was surprised.
"Right." Wang Xiaohua nodded.
Zhang Ruoshui felt guilt: "Sorry, did I stir up your sad memories?"
Wang Xiaohua smiled:
"It's nothing."
Zhang Ruoshui said again:
"If I do this, will you feel I'm very despicable?"
Wang Xiaohua didn't know whether to laugh or cry:
"Just watching a movie, how despicable can it get."
But Zhang Ruoshui said:
"But, last time, I watched this movie, watched half of it, couldn't bear to continue watching, and then, involuntarily wanted to..."
"Wanted what?"
"Wanted to try with you too..." Zhang Ruoshui's voice grew softer and softer, as quiet as a mosquito's buzz.
Wang Xiaohua looked at her, not knowing what to say.
Because even when Zhang Ruoshui said she wanted to try with him now, her face was still pure and clear, without any lust, without that kind of impulse.
It felt like what she had more of was curiosity.
"Why want to try?"
Wang Xiaohua asked her.
She just said:
"Sister Juan said, raw rice cooked rice..."
Wang Xiaohua didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
In his heart he couldn't help but complain, this Eldest Sister-in-law of his, for the sake of him and Zhang Ruoshui, truly exhausted her heart!
Probably this self-driving tour, she didn't give Zhang Ruoshui few pointers!
Wang Xiaohua even suspected that the scenery along the way Zhang Ruoshui shared with him on WeChat were also the result of Du Xiaojuan's pointers.
"Brother Xiaohua, I like you..."
Zhang Ruoshui said another sentence like this.
Wang Xiaohua nodded:
"I know."
"How do you know?" Zhang Ruoshui was surprised.
Wang Xiaohua was truly speechless:
"Last time on my hometown rooftop, didn't you already confess? You even kissed me, did you forget?"
Zhang Ruoshui only then remembered, she indeed mustered courage to confess, but she said again:
"But, Sister Juan said, that still wasn't raw rice cooked rice, that still doesn't count, and you also didn't explicitly agree..."
Wang Xiaohua indeed didn't say words like "I like you too."
But at the time he didn't refuse, doesn't that mean he tacitly accepted this relationship?
Otherwise later Zhang Ruoshui went on the self-driving tour, he wouldn't have chatted so much with Zhang Ruoshui on WeChat.
"Then I'll explicitly tell you now, our relationship is confirmed, you are my girlfriend."
Wang Xiaohua very calmly replied with this sentence.
Zhang Ruoshui immediately became incomparably happy:
"Really?"
Wang Xiaohua nodded:
"Really!"
Zhang Ruoshui weakly asked again:
"Then still need to do raw rice cooked rice?"
