My happy life in a courtyard house with triplets.

Chapter 466: Taking Guan Xiaoguan to the Movies

Zhang Lei revealed that he had many wives, and Guan Xiaoguan asked incredulously, "With so many wives, how can you possibly take care of them all?"

Zhang Lei said with a smile, "Of course they can, and they get along very well now."

Guan Xiaoguan asked incredulously, "Why?"

Zhang Lei joked with a laugh, "Maybe it's because it's big."

Guan Xiaoguan didn't understand at first, but her gaze instinctively fell on Zhang Lei's lower body, and she immediately blushed and said, "You're shameless."

Zhang Lei quickly said, "What do you mean, shameless? What are you thinking? I'm saying I'm capable and have the ability to take care of them."

Guan Xiaoguan blushed as she looked at Zhang Lei's attempt to argue, and said, "You've been talking for so long, but you haven't specified how many."

Zhang Lei laughed and said, "Don't worry about that. I see you're so beautiful, why don't you just marry me and become my fifteenth wife? That way you won't have to worry about where to go, you can just live at our house."

Guan Xiaoguan looked at Zhang Lei and spat, "Who wants to marry you, you filthy scoundrel?"

Zhang Lei looked at Guan Xiaoguan and said with a smile, "Aren't you quite happy now?"

Guan Xiaoguan was taken aback. She realized that being with Zhang Lei was truly enjoyable. She didn't feel restrained, didn't have to think about pleasing anyone, and could say and do whatever she wanted. Looking at Zhang Lei again, she suddenly thought he was actually quite handsome.

Just then, several people wearing roller skates hurriedly walked by, shouting, "Make way! Make way!"

Guan Xiaoguan was stunned for a moment. When she saw the person rushing over, she tried to dodge, but her foot slipped and she fell directly into Zhang Lei's arms.

Zhang Lei looked at Guan Xiaoguan in his arms and said with a smile, "Why are you in such a hurry? It seems you can't wait to marry me."

Guan Xiaoguan's hand accidentally touched Zhang Lei's abs, feeling their hardness. Hearing Zhang Lei's words, she quickly stood up straight and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who wants to marry you? You're shameless."

Zhang Lei lowered his head, blew a breath into her ear, and said, "Did you enjoy touching my abs just now?"

Upon hearing this, Guan Xiaoguan's face instantly turned bright red, and she ran away shyly.

Zhang Lei smiled and quickly caught up with him, saying, "I was just joking with you. How about this, as an apology, I'll treat you to a movie?"

Guan Xiaoguan looked at Zhang Lei and said, "You're not trying to take advantage of me under the guise of watching a movie, are you?"

Zhang Lei's gaze swept over Guan Xiaoguan's chest, and he said, "It's so small, what advantage can you gain from it?"

Guan Xiaoguan was so angry at his gaze that she yelled, "You're the one who's small! Your whole family is small!" Then she pouted angrily.

Zhang Lei looked at Guan Xiaoguan and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, my little one, okay? So, are you going or not?"

Guan Xiaoguan looked at Zhang Lei and said, "Go, why not go? You're the one paying anyway. I'll spend all your money and see if you still dare to gloat."

Zhang Lei laughed and said, "Really? If you really want to spend all my money, you won't have enough for one lifetime. You'll have to spend ten lifetimes with me to spend it all."

Guan Xiaoguan was too lazy to joke with him anymore, so she started walking away, with Zhang Lei following beside her.

The two soon arrived at the movie theater. Seeing that it was still early, Zhang Lei led her to a popcorn stand. Guan Xiaoguan looked at the strange machine with curiosity.

Zhang Lei laughed and said, "Never seen this before, have you?"

Guan Xiaoguan nodded.

Zhang Lei said, "This batch is ours, so stand still in front of it."

Guan Xiaoguan looked at the hammer in the old master's hand with a puzzled expression. The old master then smashed the popcorn machine with a loud "bang".

Guan Xiaoguan was so frightened that she jumped onto Zhang Lei and hugged him tightly with both hands and feet.

Zhang Lei hadn't expected her to react so strongly, so he quickly patted her on the back and said, "Alright, alright, it's okay now. Come down quickly, everyone's watching."

At this moment, Guan Xiaoguan noticed everyone was staring at her and felt so embarrassed she wanted to disappear into the ground. A child nearby laughed and said, "Mommy, look at that girl, she's so timid, she even lets someone hold her."

Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Zhang Lei quickly took the popcorn, paid, and left with Guan Xiaoguan. After leaving, Zhang Lei couldn't stop smiling.

Guan Xiaoguan angrily punched Zhang Lei, saying, "Did you do that on purpose? That thing was so loud, and you made me stand next to it. No wonder everyone was avoiding it!"

Zhang Lei looked at Guan Xiaoguan and said with a smile, "How was I supposed to know you really didn't understand this? Aren't you a native of Beijing?"

Guan Xiaoguan glared at Zhang Lei and said angrily, "I'm from Beijing, but how long have I been back in China?"

Zhang Lei laughed and said, "Okay, okay, it's my fault."

Perhaps it was that hug earlier that made Guan Xiaoguan no longer feel distant from Zhang Lei. The two sat side by side watching a movie, a Russian film, the kind that's very exciting and thrilling.

Guan Xiaoguan looked at Zhang Lei and said, "Zhang Lei, if we were on the battlefield, would you take a bullet for me?"

Zhang Lei smiled and said, "Yes."

Hearing the unwavering answer, Guan Xiaoguan was stunned for a moment, then leaned on Zhang Lei's shoulder and said, "You're such a bastard. Why did God let me meet you and let me fall so deeply in love with you?"

Zhang Lei was stunned for a moment, looked at the eighteen-year-old Guan Xiaoguan, and immediately put his arm around her waist and said, "People who love each other are destined to be together from the first moment they meet."

Their eyes met, and Zhang Lei lowered his head to kiss her. Guan Xiaoguan had lived in the United States and was used to a free and open dating atmosphere, so she didn't flinch and let Zhang Lei kiss her. Fortunately, they were sitting in the back row, and no one saw them.

As the end credits song of a movie finished, the audience began to leave. Guan Xiaoguan looked at Zhang Lei with lingering reluctance and said, "You bastard, you took advantage of me, are you planning to take my body next?"

Zhang Lei nodded and said, "Any relationship that isn't aimed at marriage is just playing around. If you want to hurry up, we can get a marriage certificate first, and then I'll take your body."

Hearing his blunt words, Guan Xiaoguan punched him lightly and said, "It's time to go."

The two left the movie theater side by side.

Zhang Lei said with a smile, "Don't you want to reconsider your situation?"

Guan Xiaoguan shook her head and said, "I don't want to think about it anymore. I know what to do."

Zhang Lei looked at Guan Xiaoguan and found it all somewhat unbelievable. He had originally intended to get to know her slowly, but he hadn't expected things to develop so quickly.

Zhang Lei smiled and said, "Is there anywhere you'd like to go? I'll go with you."

Guan Xiaoguan thought for a moment and said, "Come on, I'll take you somewhere."

The two soon arrived at the amusement park.

Zhang Lei looked at Guan Xiaoguan with a puzzled expression and asked, "Here?"

Guan Xiaoguan nodded and said, "I've always wanted my parents to come to the amusement park with me and have a great time since I was little, but they always said they were too busy with work. Now that I'm older, I thought I didn't want to anymore, but you've brought back my childhood memories."

Zhang Lei, holding Guan Xiaoguan's hand, said with a smile, "Come on, let's have some fun today."
