Chapter 541: First Date at the Innocence Center

Today, Bai Xiuwen is going to date Brother Wu’s daughter, Wu Lili. As it is his first date in his life, he attaches great importance to it.

Although I don't like Lili very much, I have agreed to Brother Wu's request and it would be difficult to stand her up.

"Sister, I'm going out soon. You stay at home. If you're bored, go play with Sister Xu, okay?"

"Got it." Bai Chi responded crisply, and couldn't help but feel curious when he saw Bai Xiuwen taking out a set of clean clothes from the closet.

She tilted her head and asked, "Brother, why are you innovating clothes?"

Looking at his sister's chubby appearance, Bai Xiuwen touched her head.

"Brother, I have something to do later. I need to meet someone. You need to dress neatly."

"What's going on? Who do you want to see? Can I go?"

Bai Xiuwen didn't want to call it a date, and he felt a little bad in his heart: "What's the point of meeting a friend you don't even know? I'll bring her to see you later, okay?"

"Great!" Bai Chi clapped his hands and cheered, "There are new friends to play with."

There are few people of her age in the yard, and even fewer who are willing to play with her. Most of the time she just entertains herself.

Compared to Banggeng, she wants to go to school more.

There were no new clothes, so Bai Xiuwen packed a set of clothes that he rarely wore, and then put on his watch.

Looking at the watch on his wrist, Bai Xiuwen thought of something and finally took it off and put it away carefully.

"Sister, come on, I'll take you to find Sister Xu. Be good today and don't make trouble, okay?"

"I'm very well behaved. I won't make any trouble!" Bai Chi responded softly with his chubby face.

"Well, my sister is the most obedient. I feel relieved." Bai Xiuwen smiled and took Bai Chi to find Xu Sinan.

bang bang~
When he saw Xu Sinan at the door, Bai Xiuwen went straight to the point.

"Sister Xu, please help take care of my sister. I have something to do today."

"Okay, no problem. I happen to have nothing to do today."

Xu Sinan nodded and felt strange seeing Bai Xiuwen wearing new clothes, but he didn't say anything.

"Thank you for the trouble." Bai Xiuwen gave Bai Chi a few final instructions and left.

"Sister Xu, come and play!" Bai Chi raised his head and stared at Xu Sinan with his big round eyes, looking so cute.

"Let's play." Xu Sinan replied with a smile, and then looked at Bai Xiuwen's back: "Xiao Xiaobai, do you know where your brother is going?"

"I know. My brother said he wanted to meet someone."

"Meeting someone? Who?"

"I don't know. My brother didn't tell me. He said he would bring her to me later."

"Is that so?" Xu Sinan muttered to himself, looking at Bai Xiuwen's back, pursed his lips, and said nothing.

"Sister Xu, play with me!"

Without thinking too much, Xu Sinan looked at Bai Chi with a smile: "Okay, I'll play with you, what do you want to play?"

When Bai Xiuwen passed through the front, middle and back yards, everyone looked at him wearing new clothes and couldn't help gossiping.

"Why is this kid dressed so well in this season? His clothes are quite new, he must have spent a lot of money on them."

"I think he's going on a date, otherwise why would he be dressed so nicely? But how could anyone be interested in a poor rag collector like him?"

"Well, I don't think so. He may not be poor. He has a pendulum clock at home. It's not cheap. If he sells it, it will be worth at least thirty or fifty yuan."

"That's right. Besides, I'm not a poor boy. Don't forget that I can repair things. It's a skill that can make a lot of money."

"Hmph, I don't think so. He wants to get married with his current condition? Dream on! With his job at the scrap yard, who would want to marry their daughter to him? He's so stinky."

There are many different opinions, some are contemptuous, and naturally some are helpful in speaking out.

Some of those who helped to speak up were neutral, while others had Bai Xiuwen help them repair things and were speaking up for justice.

Seeing them whispering, Bai Xiuwen didn't pay much attention. He was different now.

Looking at the clothes she was wearing, she said, "It seems I need to pay attention to my clothes. I need to buy my sister a new set for the New Year next year."

When passing by the front yard, Bai Xiuwen saw Li Kailang's bicycle and thought about borrowing it, but finally gave up.

After all, you're just dating someone you don't like that much. If you make such a big deal about it, she'll think you like her, which will make it harder to refuse.

Immediately, Bai Xiuwen walked on foot to the place where Brother Wu had agreed to meet yesterday and gathered in the park.

park.

Lili arrived earlier than Bai Xiuwen. When she saw him looking for her, she waved loudly.

"Brother Bai, here, here!"

Bai Xiuwen followed the sound and saw Lili. He waved and quickly came to her.

When the two young men met for the second time, they looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Lili was still young. She lowered her head shyly, rubbing the corner of her clothes, waiting for Bai Xiuwen to speak.

"Hey, Xiaobai, please speak."

In a corner, two people were hiding in the dark, looking at the two people on a date with disappointment.

These two people were none other than Brother Wu and his wife.

"Why rush? It's normal for two kids to meet for the second time."

"Normal? What the hell? When you and I first went on a date, we were very open and honest, unlike them."

"Humph!" Angkor's wife rolled her eyes. "Oh my, who asked me out like a thief? His eyes were as big as bells, as if he was afraid that my father would see him."

"Hehe~" After his embarrassing incident was exposed, Old Wu touched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

The reason why Old Wu is here is because it’s his daughter’s first date. After all, she’s his own daughter, so as a father, he has to come and take a look.

He was still very optimistic about Bai Xiuwen, thinking that Bai Xiuwen could become his son-in-law. He was so excited that he couldn't sleep at the thought.

We can't just give up on such a good person.

"Why are you in such a hurry? It's normal for two kids not to talk when they meet for the first time. Be careful that they will find out why you are chattering." Old Wu's wife slapped him.

"Look at you, you can't wait for your daughter to get married."

"You don't understand. Xiaobai is fine. Don't parents want their children to have a good family and marry the right person? I'm excited and happy."

Old Wu's wife didn't even bother to roll her eyes at him: "Okay, okay, okay, you're right, what you said makes sense, be quiet, don't let them find out."

At this time, Bai Xiuwen and Wu Lili looked at each other in silence, and neither of them knew what to do.

Although it was our second meeting, it was our first date and we were not very familiar with each other before.

In the end, it was Bai Xiuwen who broke the silence first: "Why don't we take a walk first."

"Okay." Lili responded weakly.

If Bai Xiuwen hadn't seen her nod, he would have thought she didn't respond.

The two of them walked along the path, looking at the people, scenery and objects around them, and then chatted casually.

As they walked, they returned to the starting point.

Bai Xiuwen suggested going to the supply and marketing cooperative, but Lili didn't want him to spend money, so she suggested going to Shichahai.

"Okay, let's go there." The two headed towards Shichahai.

"Alright, alright, you're still following me after you've already followed me around?" Old Wu's wife grabbed Old Wu who was still trying to follow her.

"Why not? Shichahai is so dangerous and our daughter can't swim."

"Look at you, do you really think Xiaobai didn't see you? How can our daughter date Xiaobai if you follow her like this? That's enough."

"Xiaobai saw me? How is that possible? I was following him from a distance."

"Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? I don't want to expose you, otherwise why don't you stay in the park? Do you want to find a son-in-law for your daughter, or do you not want them to be together?"

Hearing this, Old Wu thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. He smiled bitterly but still felt a little unwilling: "Did you really see it?"

Old Wu's wife rolled her eyes and said, "Okay, I'm going to go back and cook. There's a lot of work to do at home." After saying that, she walked away. Old Wu looked at his wife, then at Bai Xiuwen and the good girl, and finally followed his wife to give the two some space.

"Wait for me."

Shichahai.

There are many people fishing today, and many couples coming for dates.

Handsome men and beautiful women are strolling along the shore of Shichahai Lake. When they see someone fishing, they will even stop to watch.

Bai Xiuwen and Wu Lili were among the date crowd, adding to the beautiful scenery.

Sometimes, anglers will be attracted by beautiful girls passing by and forget about the fish being hooked, thus missing out on the small fish.

"Women mistook me!"

Without their parents' supervision and after chatting for a long time, the two of them were no longer as restrained as they were at the beginning.

During the conversation, the two told each other about their family situations. Bai Xiuwen said he came here to escape the war, while Lili had younger brothers and sisters.

The two of them didn't talk about getting married. Even if they agreed, it would depend on their parents.

Lili is a person with a lot of ideas, but unfortunately her grades are not very good. She didn't get into secondary school or high school.
I didn't have the energy to repeat the year again. I had planned to find a job after graduation, but I didn't find one due to the bad situation.

With a person like this, coupled with her good looks, Bai Xiuwen knew that Lili might be the best match for him.

It’s a pity that he already had someone in his heart. If he hadn’t met her, he would most likely have been with Lili.

As we chatted, it was already noon.

Bai Xiuwen looked at the sun, then at Lili: "It's noon, let's stop here for today, you should go home and eat."

"Okay, you should go back early too."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and Lili went home first.

First date, so much for that.

Normally, we should have a meal together at this time, but now that food rations have been reduced, not many people would choose to eat out.

Eating was a problem, so how could he spend his food coupons to eat in a restaurant? Besides, Bai Xiuwen's family financial situation did not allow him to eat out.

Seeing Lili walking away, Bai Xiuwen turned and left.

As she walked away, Lili looked back at Bai Xiuwen, sighed, and strode home.

As soon as he came back, Old Wu couldn't wait to ask about the results.

"How was it? How was it with Xiaobai? Do you have any feelings for Xiaobai? What's his character like?"

Lili said with a smile: "He's a nice guy, very enthusiastic."

"That's good. Do you have any feelings for me? Do you like me?"

At this point, Lili blushed and nodded, "Yes, a little."

"Oh ~ a little bit, or have you fallen in love with her?" Old Wu's wife teased.

"Mom! No way!" Lili stomped her feet twice and ran back to her room with a red face, not giving her parents a chance to ask more questions.

"Hey, this is just the first date and it's like this. If there are more in the future, that's too much. Your mother can't accept it at all." Old Wu laughed.

"Old Wu, what do you mean by this? Are you saying that I have no shame?" Old Wu's wife said angrily.

"No, no, are you overthinking it?" Old Wu explained quickly.

"I think too much? Or am I thinking too little? You, Old Wu, are itchy all over if you don't hit me at all!"

After saying that, Old Wu’s wife took a rolling pin and beat Old Wu.

Lili ran back to her room, and her younger brothers and sisters gathered around her curiously.

"Sister, how are you and your brother-in-law getting along?"

"What does my brother-in-law look like? Is he handsome? Is he tall? Is he strong?"

"Sister, please tell me."

The younger brothers and sisters looked at Lili who was covered in the quilt, and they were all very curious and wanted to know about their brother-in-law's situation.

"Sister, say something." The younger brother couldn't help but push his sister under the quilt. Even if their father was beaten outside, they pretended not to hear.

"I'll tell you, let me make it clear first. He may not be your brother-in-law, so don't say anything. It hasn't happened yet, so if you say it's ruined, don't blame me!"

"I know. Don't worry, sister. We promise we won't say anything."

The younger brother and sister's eyes rolled around, and it was obvious that they were planning to just call him brother-in-law the next time they met and make the matter a done deal.

"Okay, let me tell you, he is not only tall and strong, but also handsome."

Lili talked about her views on Bai Xiuwen in detail, and she was also very satisfied with Bai Xiuwen.

But she had a vague feeling in her heart that this might not succeed. She couldn't tell the specific reason, but that was the feeling.

It felt like Bai Xiuwen didn't dislike her or look down on her, but there was another reason.

Outside the room, Old Wu and his wife stopped fighting and instead eavesdropped through the crack in the door.

"I think this can work!" Old Wu said to his wife.

"It's good that they are in love. Our daughter is such a good girl, she will definitely have no trouble finding a husband."

the other side.

Bai Xiuwen returned to the yard smoothly and went to the back room to find Bai Chi immediately.

"Where are they?" Bai Chi, who was supposed to be playing in the back room, was not there, which surprised Bai Xiuwen.

"younger sister!"

"Brother is back!" Bai Chi, who was eating at Xu Sinan's house, ran out flapping his legs when he heard the sound.

"Hey, be careful." Xu Sinan followed immediately.

"elder brother!"

Bai Xiuwen looked in the direction of the voice and saw Bai Chi holding a bowl and chopsticks in his hands, with rice grains on his mouth.

"Why did you go to Sister Xu to eat? Didn't I say I would come back and cook for you at noon?"

"Ah? Really?" Bai Chi tilted his head. Did his brother say that this morning? I think he did.

"I'm sorry for eating your food." Bai Xiuwen apologized to Xu Sinan.

Xu Sinan touched Bai Chi's head and said, "It's okay. I like Xiao Xiaobai very much. Besides, she is small and can't eat much food. It doesn't matter if she eats a little."

"But you, I just happened to make too much, how about eating some together?"

Bai Xiuwen refused: "That's not necessary, I'll go back and do it later, it won't take much time."

"You're welcome. Since you're here, it just so happens that I've cooked too much. It would be so troublesome for you to cook with an extra pair of chopsticks. It would also be so troublesome for you to light firewood and cook again."

After hearing what Xu Sinan said, Bai Xiuwen originally wanted to refuse, but for some reason, he nodded.

"Sorry for bothering me. I'll treat you next time."

Hearing that Bai Xiuwen really agreed, Xu Sinan was surprised, but quickly regained his composure.

Bai Chi tilted his head, looked at his brother, then at Sister Xu. He didn't know what they were doing, just having a meal.

Have a meal?

Looking at the bowl in his hand, Bai Chi immediately took two bites and found it delicious.

Immediately, Xu Sinan invited Bai Xiuwen in.

It was the first time he entered Xu Sinan's room. The room was also very simple and there were not many pieces of furniture.

The bed was blocked by a curtain so no one could see it, but it did provide some privacy.

"Eat it while it's hot."

"Thank you."
