Chapter 863: V700: Love Across Thousands of Mountains and Rivers, Love is a Lifelong Obsession [47]_3

At that time, it was impossible for Qiu Mingyan not to be moved. Amid the faint tears, he repeatedly said "thank you" several times.

However, what Qiu Mingyan didn’t expect that day was that those words he exchanged with Mai Shilong at the courtyard’s mud wall entrance were overheard by twelve-year-old Mai Manxiang. What could a twelve-year-old girl understand?

In Qiu Mingyan’s concept, she was completely seen as a little girl.

But in a mountain village like this, girls generally got married by the age of fifteen or sixteen. At twelve, they understood what needed to be understood.

So seeing the tall and handsome Qiu Mingyan, and then hearing about the broken engagement, Mai Manxiang clenched her small hands...

In the years that followed, Qiu Mingyan treated the matter as if the engagement had already been called off. The immense kindness from the village left him with no interest in considering anything other than studying, saving for living, and striving to survive in the big city.

He didn’t even care about the incident that happened when Mai Manxiang was fifteen and he returned that once. He thought it was probably just Aunt Lin’s wishful thinking. With Uncle Mai mediating, he knew it was impossible and let it go.

But... what was meant to come would inevitably come.

So when Mai Manxiang turned twenty, Aunt Lin called to inform him that the Mai Family had been waiting for him to fulfill the marriage contract. He was deeply shocked.

Then he heard Mai Manxiang take the phone and say, "Brother Mingyan, I like you. I’ve liked you for so many years."

He: "..."

Those were probably the most terrifying years of Qiu Mingyan’s life. From Mai Manxiang’s age of fifteen to twenty, the Mai Family hardly ever contacted him. Yet, after such a long plot, they suddenly pushed such a result onto him...

He even declined Aunt Lin’s suggestion: "Let Ah Xiang go to the city to take care of you. After all, you need someone by your side."

It wasn’t because he couldn’t accept the kind of life where "coming from a rural area, the man goes out to earn money, and the woman stays home raising kids."

It was because he couldn’t accept that a little girl, who had been treated as his younger sister for five years, had suddenly dealt him such a heavy blow without him sensing anything.

Though Qiu Mingyan hadn’t experienced romance, he was very clear about one thing: he couldn’t possibly like someone with such a scheming mind...

...

So, after hearing everything, Feng Chengyue’s heart rippled on the winding mountain road amidst the roar of the motorcycle, "So, when you said you had a marriage arrangement and had to go back to get married, you were indeed lying to me?"

In an instant, Qiu Mingyan laughed, shaking his shoulders, and he didn’t deny it, "I don’t dare to want someone too scheming, and I can’t afford someone without any schemes, so I lied."

Hearing that her boyfriend also had such a dark side, Feng Chengyue couldn’t help but pinch his waist a few times.

Qiu Mingyan chuckled and endured it all.

But after pinching, Feng Chengyue felt an infinite tenderness toward Qiu Mingyan. If she had never appeared, Qiu Mingyan might not even understand what liking meant in this lifetime, right?

To live a life of repaying kindness and being unable to compromise with a scheming woman, while also unable to break free from it?

Feng Chengyue found it unimaginably terrifying just to think about it.

Hugging tightly around his waist, she suddenly wanted to hold him a little tighter, a little tighter, to comfort him.

Seemingly sensing Feng Chengyue’s emotions, Qiu Mingyan lowered his gaze and looked at the woman who, despite being told by Mai Manxiang that "he had a relationship with her," still trusted him as always. Even today, if she hadn’t asked, he would never have known.

His heart was also somewhat inexplicably moved...

...

When they arrived at Longkou Town.

The moment the motorcycle stopped, Qiu Mingyan said to Feng Chengyue, "Wait a moment." Then he got off and walked into a small shop.

Feng Chengyue didn’t know what Qiu Mingyan wanted to do. Based on her guess, shouldn’t he be taking her to the clinic?

But after waiting for five minutes and seeing Qiu Mingyan return with a bag of things, her heart trembled a bit.

Handing her a bottle of yogurt, Qiu Mingyan smiled warmly, "Drink this inferior yogurt for ten more days, and we’ll leave."

Feng Chengyue came here just to one day take Qiu Mingyan away, wherever it might be, but his talent shouldn’t be wasted in this impoverished backwater. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Moreover... he always treated her like a little princess and pampered her...

Feng Chengyue’s eyes curved with a smile, opening the yogurt lid and taking a sip, nodding, "Okay."

Qiu Mingyan laughed and cupped her face, pinching her cheeks, "You really have no caution, drinking whatever I hand you without a second thought. What if it’s pesticide?"

Feng Chengyue teased, "I’d drink the pesticide too!"

The next moment, after looking deeply into her eyes, Qiu Mingyan stood on the street of Longkou Town, holding her lips, licking the milk residue off her lips...
