Restarting 16 Years Old, the Champion is Tiger and Tea

Chapter 356: Creamy Little Husband

Not far away from the Lin family’s gate, Lin Cheng stuck his head out of the car window, saw Wang Manning and Lin Jing, got out of the car and walked over.

"Aunt Lin, where are Manning and Yanqing?"

Just as he finished speaking, Zhou Yanqing's car drove over. When he saw Lin Cheng, he got out of the car and chatted for a few words, and then everyone got into their own cars.

Lin Cheng started the car and saw Zhou Yanqing and Wang Manning's car driving past in front.

Wang Mei looked at the car going away with dark eyes: "Four circles, did Zhou Yanqing change the car again?"

Lin Cheng stepped on the accelerator and started off, saying nonchalantly:

"That's Wang Manning's car. Zhou Yanqing just bought a new motorcycle, and the price is almost as much as four laps."

"Tsk, a woman buys such a nice car, she is just vain. No wonder she left the Lin family and turned around to join the Zhou family."

Lin Cheng frowned.

"Mom, where did you get this from? What does this have to do with the Lin and Zhou families? Did you just talk too much with Manning and Aunt Lin again?"

Wang Mei snorted coldly:

"You are such a coward. She looks down on you, but you still rush to speak for her. What else can I say? She is just a second-time bride who married into the Zhou family. What she said is true."

Lin Cheng braked suddenly, and Wang Mei screamed in fear: "What are you doing, you damn kid? You scared me to death."

Lin Cheng pulled the handbrake, turned around and yelled at Wang Mei.

"Mom, you talk to Aunt Lin like this. Have you ever thought about how I will meet Zhou Yanqing in the future? Have you ever thought about the relationship between the Lin family and the Zhou family?"

Wang Mei shrank back and lowered her voice, but she still remained stubborn.

"I was just talking about Wang Manning. She was quite polite to Lin Jing, and I didn't say anything bad about the Zhou family."

Lin Cheng was so angry that he looked up at the sky speechlessly.

"Mom, no wonder my dad wants to separate from you. You always only care about your own little things and are short-sighted. If you continue like this, you will end up getting married again sooner or later."

Wang Mei grabbed the bag in her hand and threw it at Lin Cheng, then got out of the car after cursing him and slammed the door loudly.

Just as she raised her foot to move forward, Lin Cheng's car stepped on the accelerator, spewed out a puff of exhaust gas and drove away, leaving Wang Mei alone stomping her feet in the spot.

......

The next morning, Wang Manning and Zhou Yanqing said goodbye at the airport.

Wang Manning looked at the ticket in her hand and turned to the ticket office. A few hours later, she was already sitting on the plane to South City, staring at the clouds outside the window in a daze.

This was a sudden inspiration last night.

She suddenly didn't want to go back to Haicheng, didn't want to participate in the annual welcoming and seeing off, and didn't want to cater to the various concerns and inquiries from relatives and friends.

Besides, Xiao Yu is not spending the Spring Festival in the country, so she doesn’t have much to worry about.

After the plane landed, Zhou Yanqing called. Knowing that she had gone to South City, he was stunned for a while.

"I just had a sudden thought and wanted to stay at Yunjian Inn for a few days. I want to look at the lake and the flowers, drink some rice wine, and chat with strangers."

After many twists and turns, she finally arrived at the Yunjian Inn by the South Lake the next day.

I've been here twice before and the owner is already an acquaintance.

Even during the Spring Festival, there were still a few guests in the inn, a backpacking couple and a young writer.

On the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Manning wrapped in a shawl, strolled along the bank of South Lake, the two branches of wintersweets in her hands emitting a faint fragrance.

She looked at the sparkling lake, tilted her head back, closed her eyes to bathe in the sunshine, and took a deep breath of the air filled with a subtle fragrance.

It would be wonderful to find a place where no one knows you and completely empty your mind.

It was not until the sun was setting that she hummed a song and walked briskly towards the inn.

From afar, the figure with his hands in his pockets at the door of the inn made her stop.

This guy...why is he here too?

Zhou Yanqing looked at the woman waving a plum branch and walking so briskly that she seemed to be flying, and walked towards her with gritted teeth.

"You're so happy after dumping me and sneaking out?"

Wang Manning touched his nose and said, "Well, I just entered the terminal and suddenly had an idea to go on a spontaneous trip."

"Did you suddenly have this idea after entering the terminal? You're going back to Haicheng for the New Year, and you're still wearing this vacation-style skirt, shawl, and sun hat?"

"Hehe, just... one heart and two preparations."

......

Late at night, Wang Manning was sweating profusely. She took a long moment to relax, then angrily pushed away the head that was resting on her shoulder.

"How much emotion have you suppressed? You are so beastly."

"I don't care. I'm hurt anyway. You abandoned me and came here alone. Wang Manning, do you dislike me and want to give me up?"

Wang Manning stared at the dark ceiling in silence.

"I didn't, I just suddenly wanted to go out and relax."

"Look, you said you wanted to relax, but you just don't like being with me. You're tired of me."

Wang Manning patiently coaxed him, "I didn't, don't let your imagination run wild."

"No, Manning, you make me feel insecure. Manning, let's get married, otherwise I won't be able to feel at ease."

Wang Manning was speechless:

"Zhou Yanqing, are you proposing to me? This is too inappropriate in your current state. Get up and put on your clothes, and let's talk."

Zhou Yanqing didn't listen and clung to her even tighter: "No, this is the best, be honest with each other. You talk, and we communicate honestly."

Wang Manning was almost gritting her teeth.

This thing is too clingy.

"Zhou Yanqing, I've actually thought about our relationship for a long time. Do you think that we're in a good relationship right now? If we're compatible, we'll be together. If we're not, we'll be apart."

Zhou Yanqing snorted coldly: "You just don't want to take responsibility, you just want to get my favor for free."

Wang Manning almost screamed to the sky: "Zhou Yanqing, you are a man."

"What's wrong with men? Men can't be a vulnerable group."

Wang Manning was staggered by the retort. After thinking for a while, he changed his language strategy and spoke seriously.

"Zhou Yanqing, in fact, the essence of the marriage system is a property relationship. It is a product of a patriarchal society, maintained by the production method of men working outside and women working inside."

"Under the current social system, this marriage system has become outdated. For many people now, marriage is just a piece of paper contract to reduce economic pressure and risk."

"I think that paper contract is unnecessary given our current situation."

Zhou Yanqing suddenly let her go, turned over, buried his face in the pillow, and was silent for a long time.

"Yan Qing, Yan Qing..."

In the darkness, Wang Manning pushed him gently, but there was still no response.

I reached out to touch his face and felt his wet eyes, and suddenly felt a little panicked.

"Yanqing, you...don't cry, why are you crying as a grown man?"

"Can't a grown man cry? You don't want me and don't want to give me a name, so why can't I cry?"

"In order to get rid of me, Principal Wang used all his life's knowledge to compile such a high-sounding theory of marriage system for me. He really took the trouble."

Zhou Yanqing's voice was choked with sobs, showing three parts of grievance and seven parts of anger, which made Wang Manning feel particularly powerless.

Not only is he clingy, he's also a sweet little man.

Think back to his ferocious skills just now, and the domineering look he had when he was in control of things in the past.

This contrast was unexpected.
