"Uh, yes, she is my girlfriend, Akina Yuki. She is an international student from Japan. She is not going back to Japan this year, so she accompanied me home for the New Year … Yes, yes, yes, I started my own business after graduation … What company? It's just the beginning, so it's not convenient to talk about it. After Akina graduates next year, she will come out and start a business with me. We will definitely make the company bigger and stronger … Okay, thank you for your support. "
A child from the countryside brought his girlfriend home for the New Year one year after graduating from college. Not only was this girlfriend beautiful, but she was also like a fairy in the words of the older generation. She was even a foreigner, and a lady from a rich family. This kind of thing was new. Not only were the elders of Tang Hao's family very happy, but even his parents were busy serving them. Even the neighbors next door rushed to join in the fun.
This atmosphere was very different from that in the city.
The pace of life in the city was fast, and everyone was busy with their own things. Even if two families were separated by a wall and saw each other all the time, they were basically like strangers. Once the door was closed, no one would know each other. Not to mention bringing your girlfriend home, even if you brought the President of the United States home, no one would care.
The pace of life in the countryside was relatively slow, and everyone liked to chat. Often, a small matter could spread all over the village. Therefore, when Tang Hao brought Asuna home, in less than half a day, his story had spread to half of the village.
Then, whenever acquaintances came to visit his foreign girlfriend at his home, he inevitably introduced her to them, saying things like starting from scratch, starting a company, blossoming in love and career, and all kinds of bragging … Of course, even bragging required confidence. If you were poor and had no confidence, no one would believe what you said. However, Tang Hao had 800 million yuan, so he was very confident.
He gave red envelopes to everyone he met. Children gave 100 yuan, adults gave 200 or 300 yuan, and those he was familiar with gave 500 yuan. As for the elders in the family, they all gave 1,000 yuan. He looked like a nouveau riche, which made everyone believe that what Tang Hao said was true. He started a business alone and lived a good life. He was already a big boss.
As for the big boss having a foreign lady as his girlfriend, what's so strange about that?
After following Tang Hao, Asuna had truly witnessed the style of socialism in the countryside of China. She was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the crowd, and she was shy like a newlywed wife.
Tang Hao knew it was fake, so every time he saw her like this, he felt that she was too into it. With this kind of acting skills and this kind of expression, if she went to make a movie, she would definitely be the best actress this year!
After the initial excitement and dinner with his parents, Tang Hao immediately brought Asuna to his room on the second floor. After closing the door, he asked, "How are you feeling? Is there anything you're not used to? "
"It's alright." Asuna smiled. "It's just that everyone is a little too enthusiastic."
"It's like this in the countryside. It's just for fun."
"Hmm …"
Asuna gently nodded. She couldn't help but show a strange expression on her face. After living in Tang Hao's house for less than half a day, she felt like she was in a foreign country. She instinctively recalled her previous life.
As the daughter of a rich family, her living conditions were, of course, far better than this. But on the other hand, she received an elite education, and her life was arranged by her parents early on. She had almost no space of her own, and she could only fulfill their expectations mechanically. Although it was fulfilling, it was also extremely depressing.
Asuna knew very well that this wasn't the way she wanted to live. Although she didn't know what she really wanted to pursue, she also understood that her parents' care and expectations for her weren't fake. It was just that they didn't communicate with each other, so they seemed indifferent. But living such a depressing life for so many years, even during festivals, she couldn't feel the atmosphere she deserved, and it was unbearable for her.
So, when the game SAO was released, she secretly borrowed her brother Koichiro Eishiro's NERvGear to enter the game, trying to adjust her mood. But she didn't expect that SAO turned out to be a death game. Facing the pressure and fear of death, she couldn't pay attention to things in the real world.
The existence of the chat room weakened the fear in her heart to a certain extent. But on the other hand, the existence of the Bone King was oppressing her nerves in another way. So she had to temporarily put aside everything she wanted to do. All she could do was to survive in this game of death and become stronger.
Until today, she once again felt the atmosphere of real life, and it was an atmosphere that she had never experienced before.
Thinking about it carefully, Asuna found that she couldn't hate it at all. Although sometimes it was really shameful, such as when Tang Hao's elders asked her "when are you two getting married", she didn't know how to answer, and it was especially embarrassing. But in general, this kind of life where people cared about her was what she always yearned for.
This also made her gradually understand what she wanted. She wanted to choose a way of life that could make people around her smile.
Asuna was silent. Tang Hao didn't know that she was thinking about his own thoughts. He looked at her for a while and thought that she was embarrassed to talk, so he said, "Well, it's getting late. I'll ask my mom to prepare the bedroom. You wait here."
After saying that, Tang Hao immediately opened the door and walked out.
"What? Didn't I already prepare the bedroom for you?" However, when Tang Hao asked, he got such an answer. At the same time, his mother whispered to him, "The bedsheets and quilts in your room are new. I just changed them. Don't go overboard. It's Chinese New Year, so control yourself."
What control? Do you think we want to do that kind of thing?
Tang Hao suddenly burst into tears. He was sure that this was his mother!
So, Tang Hao went back to the second floor, scratched his head in front of Asuna, and said a little awkwardly, "Um, our bedroom seems to be here …"
"Our … bedroom?" Asuna was stunned. When she reacted, her face quickly turned red, and she looked nervous. "Um … We're going to sleep together?"
"Um … That's about it …"
Tang Hao thought about it and felt that this arrangement was indeed reasonable. After all, the older generation in the village was relatively conservative. If they were to bring each other home for Chinese New Year, it meant that they were already in a relationship. Moreover, they were not only boyfriend and girlfriend, but they were also going to get married and have children. If that was the case, how could they sleep separately?
"Then … Then what should we do?" After listening to Tang Hao's explanation, Asuna suddenly became restless. Although she decided to continue fighting, she was completely unprepared for this kind of thing. It was too fast!
"What else can we do? For the time being, we can only … put up with it. If we sleep separately, I'm afraid that they will suspect our relationship. Then, won't our performance today be in vain? "
"Ahhhhh …" Asuna was a little flustered for a moment. She scratched her head randomly, and suddenly revealed the nervous and shy posture of a little girl. She couldn't even speak clearly.
Tang Hao was also a little embarrassed. From the perspective of outsiders, they would most likely suspect that this was deliberately arranged by him. But in all honesty, he really didn't think of this. He was also the one who was arranged.
But after all, this was his home, so Tang Hao was not as nervous as Asuna. He immediately comforted her, "In fact, it's not a big deal. You see, my bed is quite big, and it can sleep three or four people. There are also two quilts. When the time comes, we can each take one and sleep on half of the bed."
Tang Hao immediately separated the two folded quilts and said, "After the New Year, on the first day of the Chinese New Year, we will send all our relatives away, and then we will go back on the second day. It will only take three nights … Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Tang Hao vowed. Although Asuna was still hesitant, she looked at the bed and found that it was indeed quite big, so she could reluctantly accept it.
"Then … that's it." When she said this, Asuna's face blushed to her ears.
After a while, the two went to bed, each wrapped in a quilt, separated by a body's distance. Although they were not too intimate, for Tang Hao, this was, after all, the first time he shared a bed with the opposite sex. Moreover, it was such a beautiful girl, and she was also his fake girlfriend. At the same time, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
Sure enough, men are all big pig trotters!
Tang Hao thought to himself. In Chaldea, although he and Yuji didn't say it verbally, they had basically confirmed their relationship. Now, in front of Asuna, he couldn't help but feel restless. Is it my problem? Or are all men like this?
However, sleeping in the same bed with a beautiful girl like Asuna, any man would not be able to help himself, right?
So, the problem was not himself, but the temptation was too great!
In order to avoid the temptation being too great, Tang Hao was ready to turn off the lights and go to sleep. Although it was still a little early, as long as he fell asleep, he didn't have to think about anything else.
"Don't turn off the lights!" At this moment, Asuna suddenly said.
Her whole body was hidden in the quilt, only her head was exposed.
Tang Hao thought about it and felt that the darkness might make Asuna more nervous, so he didn't turn off the lights. However, if he didn't turn off the lights, he couldn't fall asleep at all … No, in this case, even if he turned off the lights, it would still be difficult to fall asleep!
Ahhhh, so distressing-
Tang Hao was in a dilemma. He turned his head and found that Asuna also couldn't fall asleep. He felt that it was not a good idea to continue like this, so he suggested.
"Anyway, it's still early, why don't we play a game first?"
