My Dongguan Love Story

After having breakfast, I rode my motorcycle with my cousin-in-law and Tang Yan towards Dingsheng Mercedes.

Tang Yan hugged me tightly the whole way, and even when we arrived at the factory gate, she was still reluctant to part.

Tang Yan held my hand and said shyly:

"Dazhuang, remember to pick me up after get off work today."

As soon as she spoke, she suddenly tiptoed, tilted her head slightly, and her rosy lips, carrying a faint fragrance, gently touched my lips before gently withdrawing them, leaving a warm aftertaste.

When I looked down at her, her ears were flushed, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at me. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz, full of shyness as she said:

"Don't be late, or you'll get a reward tonight."

"Okay." I knew what she meant from her words.

Li Qing, standing to the side, blushed slightly upon hearing Tang Yan's words.

"Oh my, it's still so early in the morning, and you're already talking about having meat for dinner?"

Tang Yan glanced at her shyly: "It's none of your business. Dazhuang is mine, and we can do whatever we want with him."

Hearing Tang Yan declare her ownership, Li Qing laughed and took my arm, saying, "What do you mean 'yours'? Da Zhuang is mine today."

She was saying that I was going to accompany her to run some errands today.

Tang Yan, hearing Li Qing's words, knew that Li Qing was teasing her, so she stuck out her tongue and made a face at her:

"You think you can mess with me? Even if Da Zhuang spends a day with you, or even a night, what else would you dare to do?"

Tang Yan felt completely at ease entrusting me to Li Qing for a day. When Li Qing teased her, she quickly retorted:

"And another thing, I'm definitely going to scream my lungs out tonight. Let's see if you can handle it!" He then looked at Li Qing with a wicked grin: "You haven't been with a man in years, have you? You must be itching for something!"

"You..." Li Qing was speechless, glaring at her: "What's so fun about men?"

"Fine, fine, if it's not fun, then go be a nun. Nuns are fun." Tang Yan stuck her tongue out at Li Qing.

Li Qing gave her a speechless look: "You two, stop being so lovey-dovey! Hurry up, I'm going to be late for work."

Tang Yan pouted at her: 'Hmph!'

Then he kissed me again before reluctantly saying goodbye and entering the factory.

I got on the motorcycle, put my hands on the handlebars, and turned back to ask her:

"Where are we going now, sister-in-law?"

"Okay, let's go to Friendship Shopping Mall."

I listened to her words with some confusion: "Aren't you going to work?"

Today is a workday, so my cousin's wife should be at work. Is she going to take me shopping with her? Then how do I tell Tang Yan she's going to be late for work? And why does she need me to take her to work?

Just as I was wondering, Li Qing explained, "Go ahead! But we need to discuss some business at the Friendship Shopping Mall today."

"Mmm!" I nodded and didn't ask any more questions. I didn't really understand her job either. Anyway, my task today was just to keep my cousin-in-law company.

And going to Friendship Mall is also a good option; I just happen to be going there to buy a phone.

Now that I have some money, I was thinking of buying a pager, but I don't think pagers are very convenient. Besides, with the widespread use of smartphones, pagers will probably be obsolete soon. I'll just spend a little more money and buy a smartphone to get everything I need in one go.

Friendship Shopping Mall wasn't far away; it took me about forty minutes to get there by motorcycle.

After parking the car, I asked my cousin's wife, "Cousin's wife, which way do we go?"

"Uh." My cousin-in-law glanced at the time on her phone. "We're too early. The boss isn't here yet. Let's look around first."

"Okay." I nodded and walked towards the door. My cousin's wife looked at the crowd and was worried that we would get separated, so she took my wrist with her right hand.

I glanced down at it, but didn't think much of it.

My mom also held my arm when we went shopping.

After we entered the mall, I looked at the dazzling array of shops in front of me and turned to look at my cousin's wife:

"Sister-in-law, which store are we going to?"

"Let's just browse around." Li Qing looked around casually. She had only come to meet her boss and didn't have any particular purpose for shopping.

"Okay." I nodded. Since my cousin-in-law didn't want to buy anything, I'll just go and buy a phone.

I walked around the first floor but didn't see any mobile phone shops. I went up to the second floor and finally found one.

Looking at the price tag on the phone, I couldn't help but click my tongue in amazement.

Good heavens, this phone is way too expensive!

The cheapest is three thousand, while the expensive ones can cost tens of thousands.

I farm at home for a year and I can't even earn three thousand.

If I didn't have some money on me right now, and if it weren't for the inconvenience of not having a phone, I wouldn't even consider buying one.

After looking around, I found that this Nokia model is currently on sale and is quite a good deal. It usually sells for 3,500 yuan, but now it's only 2,900 yuan, a full 600 yuan cheaper.

Most importantly, this Nokia phone is drop-resistant and waterproof, so it can be used for a long time.

"Sir, please keep this." The sales clerk smiled and handed me the phone after taking the money.

"Um."

After I took the phone, the salesperson smiled and looked at Li Qing, trying to sell her the phone:

"Sir, your girlfriend is really beautiful. How about we get her a cell phone too? Our store is having a promotion right now, and it's quite a good deal."

"Huh?" Li Qing was stunned for a moment when she heard that she was my girlfriend and didn't say anything.

I waved to the sales clerk: "She's not my girlfriend, she's my cousin's wife."

"Oh? Your cousin's wife is quite young. How about considering this new Motorola? This pink one would suit a beautiful lady like your cousin's wife perfectly."

I glanced down at the price tag, and oh my god, it cost 4,980! Was it gold-plated? So expensive.

It's really expensive, but the style is quite nice. If my cousin-in-law likes it, I'd be willing to buy it for her.

"Does my cousin-in-law like this movie?"

I turned to ask my cousin's wife.

"No, no need, my phone is still very new." My cousin waved her hand absentmindedly.

"Okay, let's go then."

"Um."

"Take care, sir."

After we left the mobile phone store, my cousin-in-law, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly looked up at me:

"Dazhuang, when you introduce me to others in the future, don't say I'm your cousin's wife."

"Huh?" My cousin's words left me a little confused.

Although my cousin is gone, she will always be my cousin's wife in my heart. I don't know why she suddenly wants me to change.

Is she thinking of finding another man?

Just as I was wondering, my cousin's wife, who was walking ahead of me, stopped and turned to look at me: "From now on, just call me by my name. You can call me Li Qing or Qing'er."

Although I didn't understand what my cousin's wife meant, I still scratched my head and agreed.

Just then, her cousin's phone rang. She answered, "Mr. Lin, I'm on the second floor of the mall."

A capable woman's voice came through the phone: "Then let's meet at the coffee shop on the second floor. Mr. Wu came with me."

When Li Qing heard that President Wu had also arrived, her brows furrowed slowly, and her expression became somewhat unnatural.

But she quickly composed herself, looked at me, and suddenly said:

"Dazhuang, how about we get a little closer later?"
