Chapter 9 The Beauty Arrives

  The beauty has arrived

  Wang Long rested at home for two days and his injury had fully recovered. The farm work at home was done early, and during this time Wang Long, his parents, and sister were together every day, feeling very warm and happy.

  It's already five o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Long is sitting on a bamboo bed in the courtyard of his home, looking at the golden sunset on the horizon, which is emitting its last infinite beautiful rays.

  Suddenly, Wang Long's mobile phone rang "ding-dong-ding", Wang Long picked it up and saw that it was a call from Malu Motei. Last time they parted ways, Malu Motei had taken her own phone number away. Wang Long answered the phone, and on the other end, Malu Motei excitedly said: "Dear Dragon, have you been thinking of me?" Wang Long smiled and said: "Malu, of course I've been thinking of you, hehe." Malu Motei said: "Then do you want to see me?" Wang Long said: "En, but you're in the US and I'm in China, we can't meet even if we want to."

  "Darling Long, as you wished, I'm now in a place not far from you. Come to the XL City airport to pick me up, I've arrived."

  Wang Long was shocked and said, "Maru, how did you get here? I'll be right there, wait for me." He hung up the phone and quickly thought about heading to the airport. Although his home was over a thousand kilometers away from the airport, under Wang Long's rapid pace, he arrived in less than half an hour.

  Wang Long saw Malu Mote sitting on a bench at the airport, with a large suitcase next to her, and asked in confusion: "Malu, what are you doing? How did you get here?" Malu Mote smiled and threw herself into Wang Long's arms, saying: "Dear Dragon, I told you I'd come find you, don't you remember?" Wang Long only then recalled that Malu Mote had indeed said so before, but he thought she was just joking at the time. Who knew that today Malu Mote would really show up?

  Wang Long shook his head and said to Malu Mote, "Malu, let me take you to find a hotel to stay in first." After finishing speaking, he picked up Malu Mote's luggage and headed towards the outside of the airport. Malu Mote blocked Wang Long's path, shaking her head and saying, "No, Long, I don't want to stay in a hotel."

  Wang Long asked in puzzlement, "If not a hotel, then where will you stay?" Malu Mote opened her bright red small mouth and said coquettishly, "Long, I want to be with you, let's go to your home and stay there." Wang Long was shocked and said, "It won't do, my home is very poor, I'm afraid you won't be used to it." Malu Mote said, "Long, I'm not afraid, I just want to be with you. Now that my grandmother is gone, you are my only relative left, you won't reject me, will you?" Wang Long shook his head helplessly and said, "Then let's go to my home first, you can stay at my place for two days, if you're not used to it we can move out later." Malu Mote happily pulled Wang Long's hand and followed him out of the airport.

  They took a car and soon arrived at Wang Long's house. Seeing that Wang Long's house was indeed as he had said, Malu Mengtai opened her cute little mouth in surprise. Wang Long saw Malu Mengtai's expression and awkwardly said: "Malu, you see, my home is really poor, otherwise I'll find a hotel for you to stay." Malu Mengtai shook her head and said: "Long, I didn't mean that, I just think it's a bit strange. It's okay, I'll stay at your house." After finishing speaking, she led the way into the house.

  Wang Bing and Liu Chu were in the house watching Wang Fei do her summer homework when they saw their son, Wang Long, and a very beautiful foreign girl walk in together. They were both shocked and stared at Wang Long with their mouths open. Wang Long introduced Marulome to his parents and sister. Marulome greeted Wang Long's parents in stiff Mandarin, which surprised Wang Long greatly.

  Maru looked at Wang Long with pride, seeing the surprised look on his face, and couldn't help but laugh happily. Since deciding to follow Wang Long last time, she had been studying Chinese hard for several days, and now she could finally speak some simple Chinese.

  Liu Chu hastily pulled over a chair and let Maloumert sit down. Wang Bing asked suspiciously beside him, "Little Dragon, who is she?" Wang Long replied, "Dad, she's an American friend of mine, here to see me today." Xiao Wang Feng stared at Maloumert with unblinking eyes for half a day before suddenly shouting loudly, "Brother, isn't she Maloumert or something?"

  Wang Long nodded, Wang Feng excitedly screamed, making Wang Bing and Liu Chu look at Wang Feng in confusion. No wonder, people like Wang Bing and Liu Chu who are simple rural folk have no interest whatsoever in international stars, their daily concerns being only about the harvest and their children's studies.

  But Xiaofeng is different, now the information is extremely developed, like them, ten or so years old little girls, if they don't even know Maluma, such an international star, they will be laughed at by their classmates.

  Xiao Wang Feng quickly pulled out a small photo of Malu from her backpack and asked Malu to sign it. Wang Long, who was standing beside them, looked puzzled and asked, "Xiao Feng, how do you know her?" Xiao Feng stared at her brother as if he were an alien, exclaiming in surprise, "Brother, you're so out of touch! Who doesn't know Malu Jie at my age? Last time Malu Jie had a concert, some rich classmates from our school even went to see it!" Wang Long shook his head with a bitter smile, thinking that Malu's charm was indeed great, having such a huge influence. It seemed that he would have more trouble in the future.

  Malu Mengtai looked at Wang Long with satisfaction, quickly picked up Xiao Wang Feng's pen, and signed her name on the small photo. Wang Feng happily accepted it and hid it in the inner pocket of her school bag.

  At night, Marulou happily had dinner with Wang Long's family. To be honest, although she is an international star, her daily life has no freedom at all, everything is arranged by the brokerage company for her. Today in Wang Long's home, she can't feel a bit of oppression, doesn't need to pretend to laugh or cry, and truly feels good being herself again.

  Wang Long's parents also loved this lovely American girl very much. Although she couldn't speak their language, it was clear that she was extremely respectful and polite to them. So they kept putting food into Maloumert's bowl, and Maloumert didn't dare refuse. After finishing the meal, she felt a little bloated.

  Xiao Wang Feng pulled Malu Mote to play until 11 o'clock in the evening, leaving Wang Long aside. Wang Long helplessly watched the two children, big and small. When Malu Mote was with Xiao Wang Feng, she was like a child, crazy and happy, singing songs and playing games together. The courtyard was filled with the laughter of Wang Feng and Malu Mote.

  It wasn't until after eleven that Wang Feng finally got tired and went to sleep with her parents. Maluomute finished washing up and came to the courtyard, sat down beside Wang Long, and slowly leaned her head on his shoulder. With a happy smile, she said to Wang Long: "Dear Dragon, do you know? Today was my happiest day ever! I've never been so crazy before. Since I was little, I've always lived for my dreams and didn't have time to play around. Thank you, Dragon!" After finishing speaking, she quickly gave Wang Long a peck on the cheek. Wang Long stretched out his hand and gently hugged Maluomute, saying: "Malu, I also want to thank you, for bringing joy to my sister. What you brought her today will become one of her most beautiful memories."

  Maru snuggled into Wang Long's arms, gazing up at the stars in the sky together. The vast expanse of twinkling lights scattered golden sparks everywhere, enveloping the entire courtyard in a beautiful painting. A gentle breeze rustled through, and on this summer night, it was indeed enchantingly captivating.

  Marude stretched out a small hand to touch Wang Long's neck, pinching the jade pendant she had given him and asked: "Long, have you always worn this piece of jade I gave you?" Wang Long nodded, curiously asking: "Yes, okay, Marude, can you tell me the story behind this jade?"

  Malu Mote recalled past events, and a thin mist slowly appeared in her eyes. She nodded and slowly began to tell Wang Long.

  Maruluo had heard from her grandmother that their ancestors were from Wu, coming from the most mysterious Miao territory in China. Later, their descendants slowly moved to Han Chinese inhabited areas, married Han women and lived in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. After the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China, the descendants of Wu were captured by the invaders as "coolies" and drifted to the United States, where they married American girls. By Maruluo's generation, the Chinese blood had become very diluted. Only this jade pendant was passed down as a family heirloom. Maruluo's parents died when she was young, so she naturally inherited the jade from her grandmother, who she relied on for survival.

  After finishing her own life story, Malu Mote was already in tears. Wang Long wiped away the tears on Malu Mote's face and comforted her: "Malu, please don't be too sad, your grandmother is always watching you from above. Look, that brightest star in the sky is your grandmother's spirit, she also hopes you can live happily."

  Malu Mengtuo gazed at the largest and brightest star, as if Grandma was looking at her with her gentle and caring eyes. Tears in her eyes couldn't be held back anymore, rolling down loudly. Wetting Wang Long's chest clothes thoroughly.

  Wang Long comforted her for half a day before Malu Mote finally stopped crying, slowly leaning on Wang Long's body and entering a sweet dreamland.
