As long as she

  At that moment, she was startled and didn't have time to grasp the meaning of his words. By the time she understood, he had already pulled her along for a distance.

  Her small face was reddened by the sun, and her lowered shadow overlapped with his tall figure, the mottled light making her eyes ache.

  A group of people arrived at the middle of the mountain. Chun Xia was the first to find a stone bench and invited others to sit down. Seeing Manman being pulled by Jiang Yan's arm, walking slowly up the stairs, Chun Xia smiled with a curved mouth and said: "You're like an old cow pulling a cart."

  Yu drank water and spat it out in one mouthful.

  Her eyelids lifted slightly, and she didn't know that early summer was so talkative, staring blankly.

  Afraid that she would really get angry, it was early summer, first pulled her to sit down, handed over a bottle of mineral water, and whispered close to her ear: "It's hard to come out and play, let go."

  She strained her fingers to twist open the mineral water bottle cap, but couldn't open it. The sweat all over her body didn't know whether it was because of what Chunxia said or thinking about what he just said.

  Jiang Yan and Du Yu sat shoulder to shoulder under a tree, enjoying the shade.

  "Didn't you have a boyfriend before?" Jiang Yan asked, chewing on the words. Mianmian looked like she had never been in contact with a man before.

  Logically speaking, Manman is twenty-nine this year and it's impossible that she hasn't been in a relationship before.

  Du Yu mentioned this matter, and felt a pang of sadness for Manman: "Don't mention it. You should know the environment at her home? Just her mother who likes to make trouble, has made many good men retreat."

  Jiang Yan twisted open the cap, but suddenly didn't feel like drinking water anymore.

  "If it were just her mother, that would be fine. The main problem is those sisters of hers." Du Yu said this with genuine anger, "Each and every one of them thinks they're a precious gem. If Mianmian's partner is good, they think they're being wronged. If Mianmian ends up with someone bad, they think Mianmian is bringing shame to them."

  Any normal man who has thought about having a good life would not want to get close to Manman after hearing what Yu said.

  Du Yu dared to say, also betting on Jiang Yan's sincerity towards Manman: "Manman is average-looking, has a bad job, and her family background is not good either." He leaned against Jiang Yan's shoulder: "I'm asking you, brother, what do you like about Manman? Let me take a reference."

  "I like Manman, but I don't know why," Jiang Yan said, feeling embarrassed himself, his eyes involuntarily glancing at Manman.

  Manman has been struggling with the mineral water bottle cap, her little face screwed up tight.

  His innate and transparent temperament was impossible to conceal, like a beam of bright light that suddenly shone into his eyes.

  Jiang Yan thought: Such a good and pure girl should have a good man to take care of her.

  Soughing, rustling, the wind made a sound, and she felt his two lines of sight passing through the gaps between the branches, converging on her face like a spotlight, and Manman gently turned her face aside.

  It's been ages since she last had contact with a boy.

  In memory, the boys who were close to her, when they found out about her family background, compared and found that she was not as good-looking as even the near-sighted Huanhuan, and in terms of family circumstances, hers was the worst.

  Because she had never been asked out on a date before, and not even one boy had ever told her that he liked her.

  Her heart has gradually cooled down about this matter, occasionally thinking that it's not bad to spend a lifetime like this. However, why did a man suddenly appear out of nowhere and say he likes her?

  My heart is skipping beats.

  The sky is clear with no clouds, the air in the mountains is fresh and cool, the breeze is gentle, and more and more tourists are coming to play, getting younger and younger, not lacking groups of people playing together.

  A group of young people, about ten in total, climbed up two or three at a time.

  The bottle cap in Manman's hand couldn't be twisted open. She raised her head and bumped into Wen Haosheng among the crowd.

  Can't hide anymore.

  "Vine sister?" Wen Haosheng's round face was rich in expression, from a surprised smile to a familiar one, all within three seconds, the camera couldn't even capture her transitional expressions. "Vine sister, you came alone? It's not fun to play alone. If you had said something earlier, we could have come together."

  Who wants to come with her?

  Mianmian's slightly furrowed brow wasn't enough to make a sound, and Chu Xia, who was sitting next to her taking her friend's side, said: "Mianmian didn't come alone."

  Not alone?

  Under the big tree sat Du Yu and Jiang Yan. Oh, that broken household, Wen Haosheng's eyes smiled into two parentheses.

  Don't mention Jiang Yan, Du Yu and Chu Xia, according to Wen Haosheng's understanding, they are also white-collar workers of the "moonlight clan" type, with no money. So, Manman, you have to be careful when making friends, if you make two penniless friends who help you get married, aren't you being taken advantage of? Upon reading this, Wen Haosheng truly felt "sympathy" for Manman.

  Standing there, motionless, with a hesitant expression, Wen Haosheng indeed caught the attention of his companions.

  "Haoyue, is she your sister?"

  "Yes, it's my cousin."

  "Are you alone? If so, let's play together. The more people, the merrier."

  "I also want to, but my sister is unwilling." Wen Haosheng said with infinite regret.

  "Why not?"

  One by one, the gazes turned to Manman, and then unexpectedly saw Chuxia, Du Yu, and Jiang Yan. The moment they saw Jiang Yan, many girls' eyes sparkled brightly.

  Good-looking guy with red lips and white teeth, the most precious thing is that he doesn't have a sissy tone, his slightly raised eyebrows are full of masculine charm.

  Seeing everyone's reaction was the same as his own, Wen Haosheng dropped a bombshell: "Don't look at him like that, he actually has other skills."

  No need to say more, everyone can already imagine.

  Young and innocent face?

  Only eating soft rice?

  The girls giggled and were no longer reserved, pointing at the handsome guy with their fingers.

  Du Yu was annoyed by fire and wanted to stand up, but was pressed down on his shoulder by Jiang Yan.

  "Don't be angry, Yu Ge. I'm not even angry." Jiang Yun's mouth curved up at the corners, his eyebrows raised in a haughty and arrogant expression, causing a group of young girls to blush bright red.

  Isn't it said that we're a poor household?

  Is it because of pride?

  Wen Haosheng couldn't help but think: This man, every expression and every glance, seemed like a vagabond? Could it be that he and his family had made some kind of mistake somewhere?

  Even Lian's younger sister suspected it, and Manman had even more doubts in her heart.

  A group of young girls let out a low, collective gasp of surprise.

  Jiang Yan suddenly sat down beside Manman, his big hands embracing her like a small bird into his arms, Manman's little face didn't have time to blush, when she heard him whispering with the corner of his mouth:

  "What you said is right, I just want her to support me."

  Boom.

  His mind was blown blank.

  Wen Haoxue and a group of girls retreated at full speed.

  "I say, Haoyue, your sister is really pitiful. She actually hooked up with a shameless guy who wants to live off others."

  Her little finger hooked into her ear hole, Jiang Yan only noticed Du Yu and Chu Xia's two smiling faces leaning forward and backward, who might reveal his secrets at any time.

  The delicate body in his arms moved slightly, and Jiang Yan only then realized he had overstepped, hastily releasing his hand.

  Ke Man's face was no longer red and her heart was no longer racing, her voice cold and calm: "Mr. Jiang, we are indeed not suitable."

  Pffft! Jiang Yan let out a cold breath.

  Digression
