Today was the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. It was Chinese Saint Valentine's Day. Zheng Xiaoguang's company kindly let all of its employees have a day off today. As such, Zheng Xiaoguang slept until 10 am this morning. After lying in bed for another half an hour, she slowly got up.
She was left alone in the apartment, which had three bedrooms, one living room and one dining room. Her parents joined a package tour and left early in the morning. Most of her friends and relatives also went out to enjoy the festival.
She shuffled to the living room and watched TV to kill time. The moment she turned on the TV, she saw a family drama about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The vicious mother-in-law was pointing at the poor daughter-in-law and lambasting her, asking her to divorce her son.
Zheng Xiaoguang had seen this family drama before. This mother-in-law had despised her daughter-in-law since her son had gotten married to this girl. When she was provoked by her married daughter, she became even more unsatisfied with her daughter-in-law and encouraged her son to divorce this girl. In the end, her son was forced to divorce his wife due to filial piety.
This story told the audience that a relations.h.i.+p disapproved by one's parents was difficult to maintain.
It was a good family drama, but as Zheng Xiaoguang had watched it before, she did not want to watch it anymore. She fumbled for the remote controller and planned to watch some variety show. Right at this moment, her cellphone rang. She picked it up and found out that the call was from Blooming Pear Tree.
"Hi, Xiaoguang. I've reached your apartment building," said Blooming Pear Tree.
Zheng Xiaoguang was a little excited upon hearing his voice and asked, "Why do you suddenly come here, big brother?"
He had never told her that he was going to visit her today.
"I haven't seen you for quite a long time. I just want to meet you," said Blooming Pear Tree. "Is there anyone else in your apartment? Is it convenient for you to come down now?"
"I'm at home by myself. Please take the elevator and come up. I'll open the door for you," replied Zheng Xiaoguang.
After talking with her big brother on the phone, she hurriedly straightened everything up in the living room. When she had just tidied up the room, she heard the doorbell ring.
She hurriedly opened the door and saw Blooming Pear Tree standing outside.
He was about 182 centimeters tall and looked st.u.r.dy. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. His skin was nicely-tanned and smooth. As it was quite hot today, he wore only a light blue s.h.i.+rt and a pair of black jeans.
"Please come in." Zheng Xiaoguang invited him into her apartment and asked, "Aren't you always busy with your work, big brother? Why do you suddenly have time to see me?"
Blooming Pear Tree was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His father was a real estate developer who had made loads of money during the past several years, and his mother ran franchised hotels and owned a lot of properties.
Despite that, he earned his own living by working as an engineer instead of flaunting his wealth and enjoying his life. Because of this, Zheng Xiaoguang respected him a lot.
As he was always busy with different projects on construction sites, he seldom had time to meet Zheng Xiaoguang.
Upon hearing Zheng Xiaoguang's question, Blooming Pear Tree walked into the living room and asked, "What? Are you suggesting that I'm not welcome here?"
"No, big brother. You're welcome here." Zheng Xiaoguang said and then turned around, planning to go to the kitchen to make tea for him. Blooming Pear Tree stopped her.
"You don't need to make tea for me, Xiaoguang. It's almost noon now. Let's go downstairs to have lunch together," said Blooming Pear Tree.
"Okay," Zheng Xiaoguang smiled and said. "Big brother, now that you've come to R City to visit me, you have to let me give you a treat. I know a good fish restaurant in the city. Let's go there."
Blooming Pear Tree touched her head and said, "Okay."
Zheng Xiaoguang and Blooming Pear Tree went downstairs.
When they arrived at the fish restaurant, she ordered the dishes and then went to sit opposite to Blooming Pear Tree. She said, "You know what, big brother. Once you order a fish which weighs more than 3.5kg in this restaurant, it'll make two different dishes for you with the fish. I ordered tomato fish and black pepper fish. I hope that you'll like them."
Blooming Pear Tree nodded and said with a smile, "That's great."
Zheng Xiaoguang poured some tea into his cup and asked, "Hey bro, I'm just curious. Why do you come to visit me on Chinese Saint Valentine's Day? Don't you have a date today?"
They had known each other for more than three years. Now both of them were urged by their parents to get married. Zheng Xiaoguang really wanted to know whether her big brother had found a girl that he wanted to marry.
Blooming Pear Tree seemed to be somewhat displeased upon hearing this question. He gently knocked her on the head with his fingers and said, "Hey, little girl. Don't interfere with your seniors' personal affairs."
Zheng Xiaoguang twitched her mouth and said, "I just heard some gang members say that you and Slightly Defected Moon..."
Blooming Pear Tree directly interrupted. "Those are groundless rumors. How can you take them seriously? I've told everyone in the gang that I treat her as a brother."
Right at this moment, a waiter brought the dishes to their table. Blooming Pear Tree added, "Just forget about it and enjoy your fish now."
"Alright, let's dive in," said Zheng Xiaoguang. In the meantime, she sighed inwardly, "It looks like that my big brother still can't forget about the girl named Rose."
Upon seeing the steaming fish hot pot, Zheng Xiaoguang felt that her pent-up appet.i.te finally recovered a little. The moment she picked up her chopsticks, Blooming Pear Tree suddenly said, "Today is Chinese Saint Valentine's Day. As your husband in the game, Bluegreen-Clad should spend some quality together with you in the game."
Zheng Xiaoguang was stunned while holding her chopsticks in the air. She stuttered, "Uhm, he's busy."
"Really?" Blooming Pear Tree frowned and continued, "You haven't been online these days. Neither has he. He even doesn't spend Chinese Saint Valentine's Day together with you... Tell me the truth. Did he do anything wrong?"
Zheng Xiaoguang had never expected Blooming Pear Tree to think so. She hurriedly explained. "No, it's not like that. He didn't do anything wrong. He and I... I mean we're just... "
In the meantime, she thought worriedly, "I deliberately hide this thing from my big brother to avoid irritating him. But he still notices that there's something wrong about Bluegreen-Clad and me. What can I say now?"
Blooming Pear Tree raised his eyebrows and said, "Stop it. As you can't say it clearly, I'll go to find him. I guess that he can tell me what happened clearly. I'll make him understand that no one can bully my sister."
"No, big brother. Please don't go to find him," said Zheng Xiaoguang.
Blooming Pear Tree stared at her and asked, "Then can you tell me what happened between you and him?"
"It seems that I have no choice but to tell him the truth," Zheng Xiaoguang sighed secretly. She took a deep breath and said, "Brother, I met Su Han in s.h.i.+ny Sky, and Bluegreen-Clad knows him too. He's a member of the League of Strong Families, and his ID is Never Deeply Attached."
"So what? You don't owe him anything. Why do you have to avoid him?" Blooming Pear Tree paused for a moment and added grimly, "Does Bluegreen-Clad mind your past relations.h.i.+p with Su Han?"
"Does Bluegreen-Clad mind it? Shouldn't he mind it?" Zheng Xiaoguang wondered. She slightly shook her head and said, "Listen, big brother. It's I who decide to get a divorce. It has nothing to do with Bluegreen-Clad."
Blooming Pear Tree seemed somewhat grumpy and said, "If you make this decision because of Su Han, I have to intervene. I'll take you to find Bluegreen-Clad and talk this thing through after the meal. If you refuse to come with me, I'll go to find him by myself. But without you being around, I can't promise that I won't beat him up..."
"My big brother is really impetuous sometimes." With this in mind, Zheng Xiaoguang felt worried and pleaded. "No, please, my dear big brother..."
