's words are quite astonishing!

Who knew that when he rode his bike to the intersection of Beiheyan Road, he immediately spotted a familiar figure from behind—Qin Huairu!

She squatted under the old sycamore tree on the north side of the road, holding her head, her shoulders heaving.

Is she crying?

Looking behind her, there was a blurry human-shaped mark on the wall.

When Liu Dong saw the mark, he almost burst out laughing.

He stopped his bicycle in front of Qin Huairu and called softly, "Huairu, what's wrong?"

Qin Huairu, who was silently sobbing with her head down, suddenly raised her head, hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a somewhat embarrassed expression, "Brother Liu Dong... so it was you..."

He managed a forced smile.

"What happened?" Liu Dong suddenly became interested. "You're secretly wiping away tears here. Did you run into some trouble? Don't bear it all alone. Tell me about it..." His face was full of concern.

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu's tears started falling uncontrollably again: "Brother Liu Dong... it's nothing... you can't help with this anyway... sob sob sob..."

"Don't cry, don't cry." Liu Dong steadied the bike, walked over, and gently patted her shoulder. "What happened? Did you fail to buy a ticket back to the village again the other day?"

Qin Huairu shook her head: "No... Brother Liu Dong... Waaah... It's Dongxu, Dongxu isn't even a man!"

?

Liu Dong's eyes widened in surprise: That's quite astonishing!

Qin Huairu continued, "A couple of days ago... we got our marriage certificate!"

What? !

Liu Dong was stunned: Married?

Why haven't I heard any news at all?

Oh right—I was engrossed in training at the Qianmen Gate Tower back then!

"Getting married...it's a wonderful thing!" Liu Dong quickly cheered up and said, "Then let's live a good life together! A new life is just beginning!"

"That's not how it is!" Qin Huairu cried even harder, looking at him with teary eyes. "Brother Liu Dong, I don't care about saving face anymore, I'll tell you the truth—Dongxu is impotent, he's practically useless..."

We've only been married for three days, and I slept with him for the first two nights, but what about him?

She won't even look at me properly, she's always finding fault with everything, and even when she sleeps, she deliberately turns her head outwards, never sitting next to me... I... I... Waaaaah...

Who does he think he is!

She's incompetent herself, yet she expects me to have a child. She actually wants me to go back to my parents' home and ask someone else for a child... Waaah... God, what terrible things have I done?!

Good guy!

Liu Dong was completely stunned: Holy crap, this is too outrageous!

He took a deep breath and subconsciously touched his face.

Honestly, he had to blame himself—who told him to casually curse Jia Dongxu a few days ago with the phrase "may you be childless and without descendants"? The system didn't react for a long time, which puzzled him. A whole day later, the system finally slowly popped up a message: [Target has lost the ability to reproduce].

Unexpectedly, even though Jia Dongxu lost that function, he still married Qin Huairu as usual!

Really served!

Knowing full well that he couldn't do what a man should do, why did he still insist on marrying her?

Even more outrageous, he actually sent his wife back to the village to "borrow sperm"?

Good heavens...

It seems this guy planned this all along; he probably laid out the whole plan before the wedding.

Liu Dong was speechless for a moment, his heart filled with mixed feelings. "Huai Ru, what are you planning to do?" he asked softly.

"Don't worry, I won't reveal a single word of what you said today."

Looking at the eight bright red hearts on her head, he knew that she truly considered him family.

Qin Huairu gritted her teeth, then suddenly declared, "Fine, I'll lend it to you! Who's afraid of who?"

"Brother Liu Dong, do me a favor and take me back to the village!" she said decisively. "If Jia Dongxu isn't afraid of being cuckolded, what am I, Qin Huairu, afraid of? It's just about having an heir, right? There are so many young men in our village, who wouldn't want that?"

"It's just...it's completely dark now, and I'm scared to walk alone at night. Could you take me there?"

"Just like last time, deliver it to the village entrance."

"I will remember this kindness for the rest of my life!"

Liu Dong glanced at his watch: 6:30.

It's definitely not early.

It's mid-September, and it's already dark by now. A cool breeze is blowing.

There's still enough time. After dropping her off, I can fly back in a little over an hour, which won't affect picking up Xue Ru at nine o'clock tonight.

"Okay, no problem!" He nodded readily. "Let's set off right now and be back quickly!"

"Oh... thank you, Brother Liu Dong!" Her voice lowered, tinged with gratitude.

So Liu Dong got on his bicycle, Qin Huairu sat on the back, and the two of them slowly left the city.

On the flat road just outside Beijing, the car was fairly stable. But once we got onto the dirt road and picked up speed, the people in the back started to feel extremely bumpy.

"Ouch..." Qin Huairu couldn't help but cry out, "Brother Liu Dong, slow down, slow down, it's about to fall apart!"

"Bear with it!" Liu Dong shouted, turning around. "I have to get back soon, it'll be over in a minute! If you can't sit still, hold onto my waist so you don't fall!"

"Sigh..." She couldn't take it anymore, so she reached out and hugged his waist, gently resting her head on his back.

Tap tap tap tap tap—the wheels sped along the bumpy dirt road, the car swayed wildly, and my backside felt numb.

About forty minutes later, we finally arrived at the village entrance we had visited before.

It was pitch black all around, and all was quiet.

The night sky was dotted with stars, and the crescent moon hung like a scimitar in the southwestern sky, casting a cool, clear light.

It's so hot during the day you're sweating, but at night it's so cold you shiver.

Liu Dong parked the car about two or three hundred meters from the village entrance: "We're here, girl, you can get out now."

"Mmm..." Qin Huairu's body went limp, her voice trembling, "Brother... I can't feel my legs at all... and my butt is completely numb..."

After being jostled around like that the whole way, how could my neck not be numb?

Even Liu Dong himself felt a dull pain in his coccyx.

"Wait a minute, let me help you down."

He had no other intentions; he was simply trying to help.

I parked the car, grabbed her under the armpit with one hand, and pulled hard, dragging her off the back seat.

As soon as her feet touched the ground, Qin Huairu's legs went weak and she couldn't stand up, so she reached out and hugged him.

Ouch...it's stuck on really tight now.

Keep in mind that this was still September in the Gregorian calendar, when the weather was hot during the day and cool at night, and city dwellers wore light clothing.

How could the fabric covering her body possibly keep out her body temperature and heartbeat?

In the stillness of the night, she suddenly spoke, her voice as soft as a dream:

"Brother Liu Dong... I have feelings for you..."

"I fell in love with you the moment I saw you... but I always kept to myself and didn't dare to think about anything else... If I hadn't met a beast like Jia Dongxu, I would never have said these words out loud in my life..."

"But what about him? A grown man, unable to perform, yet he forces me to find someone else to carry on the family line!"

"Waaaaah... He's such a jerk!"
