The Mightiest Little Peasant

Tang Hao spent his New Year’s Day uneventfully.

He stayed in his apartment in the morning and went out with Yan’er in the afternoon. In the evening, he sent her back to the dormitory.

When he got home, he received a call from Assistant Han.

“Are you free tomorrow, Chairman Tang?” Han Yutong asked.

“Yes! What’s the matter?”

“Well…” she suddenly hesitated. “Can you accompany me tomorrow?”

“Sure!” Tang Hao readily agreed. “What’s the matter?”

She hemmed and hawed for a while and said softly, “Be my boyfriend!”

“Huh?”

Tang Hao was stunned and at a loss for a reply.

“It’s just for one day!” Han Yutong added.

“Well…” Tang Hao grinned and hesitated.

“I’m begging you, Chairman Tang. It’s just for one day, please!” She pleaded.

“What’s going on?” Tang Hao asked.

“My relatives are coming tomorrow. They’re from my first uncle’s family. My family has a good relationship with them, but my cousin is especially annoying.

“She’s been trying to one-up me in everything since we’re kids, and she’s very sarcastic.

“The last time we met, she even laughed at me for being single. How can I tolerate that? Don’t you think so?”

As she said that, Han Yutong clenched her teeth and fists resentfully.

‘I can get married if I want to!’

She had countless pursuers both in Westridge and Provincial City. It was just that she could not be bothered with them.

As long as she said a word, her pursuers could form a line across the city.

How infuriating!

The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became, and she punched the pillow in her arms hard.

Tang Hao laughed and said, “Yes! We shouldn’t tolerate that!”

“That’s why I thought of you… If I don’t have a boyfriend this time, I can’t look her in the eye! She’ll definitely mock me again!” Han Yutong said.

Then, she fell silent.

After a long time, she said softly, “I don’t want to look for anyone else… other than you!”

Tang Hao was silent for a while.

He could hear the undertones of love in her words. He knew very well what she was thinking.

“OK!” He finally agreed after a long time.

“Really? Are you sure?”

On the other end of the phone, Han Yutong almost jumped out of her bed in surprise.

“Mm!” Tang Hao responded.

“That’s great!” Han Yutong clenched her fists and said excitedly

“Thank you, Chairman Tang!” She said coyly.

“You don’t have to thank me!” Tang Hao could not help but laugh.

“I’ll thank you anyway. You’re the best, Chairman Tang!” She smiled sweetly, as though her mouth was smeared with honey.

Even if it were just for a day, it would still be good!

Moreover, tomorrow was a very special day with a special meaning.

“Then… please come over early tomorrow, Chairman Tang. They might arrive at about eight or nine o’clock,” Han Yutong said.

“OK!” Tang Hao said.

Then, there was a moment of silence.

“What are you doing now, Chairman Tang?”

“Surfing the Internet!”

“Oh!” She replied.

She paused for a moment and asked, “Chairman Tang, am I really too old to be single?”

“How can that be! You’re just at the right age!” Tang Hao said.

She was surprised by the reply. After thinking for a moment, she agreed with him. Chairman Tang’s girlfriend was the same age as her. Apparently, Chairman Tang preferred mature women.

She pursed her lips and was delighted again.

“Then… Chairman Tang, you should go to bed early. Oh, right, you don’t seem to sleep a lot. Good night then. I’ll go to bed early. See you tomorrow!”

“Good night!”

Early the next morning, Tang Hao went to Han Yutong’s house.

He rang the doorbell. It was her mother who opened the door.

“You’re here, Lil Tang!” Mrs. Han said with an affectionate smile.

“Auntie!” Tang Hao greeted her and handed her the bag in his hand.

“Well… Oh! You don’t have to bring anything!” Mrs. Han joked.

“Don’t mention it!” Tang Hao said.

“Come in!”

Tang Hao walked into the house and looked around. “Where is she? Is she still in bed?” He asked.

“Ha! She woke up very early to dress up! She’s been very excited,” Mrs. Han said with a smile. “Have a seat! She still needs some time.”

Tang Hao sat down and chatted with Mrs. Han for a while.

Finally, a bedroom door opened, and Han Yutong walked out.

She wore exquisite makeup on her face, which made her look even more beautiful than usual.

Tang Hao lifted her head and was stunned.

“You’re here, Chairman Tang!” She called out as she walked.

“Ah, right! I can’t call you Chairman Tang today.” She pursed her lips into a smile, walked up next to Tang Hao, sat down, and held his arm.

She was close enough that he could smell her fragrance.

“I’ll have to call you Darling today!”

As she spoke, she smiled brightly and held Tang Hao’s hand tightly.

Mrs. Han shook her head helplessly.

She did not know whether it was a good thing for her daughter to indulge in such fantasies.

However, she was not going to say anything. She smiled, got up, and walked to the kitchen. “I’ll prepare lunch. You guys chat!”

Seeing her mother leave, Han Yutong tilted her head and rested it on Tang Hao’s shoulder.

She nuzzled her head on his shoulder and lazily narrowed her eyes.

“Your shoulders are so wide, Chairman Tang…

“Later, I’ll rest my head like this. You have to cooperate with me. You need to look more natural and not so stiff. Show some indulgence on your face from time to time. Yes, that’s the way!

“My cousin is very shrewd. If you don’t put up a proper act, she’ll be able to tell at a glance.”

Tang Hao was speechless.

‘Showing some indulgence on my face from time to time? That’s quite difficult!’

He pondered for a moment, stretched his arm, grabbed her slender waist, and smiled at her.

His smile was very gentle. His gaze was spirited and carried some indulgence.

Han Yutong stared blankly at him.

Thump! Thump! Her heart was beating wildly.

She had fantasized about that scene countless times, but she had never expected to experience it one day.

She subconsciously moved closer as she stared at him, slowly closed her beautiful eyes, and delivered a kiss.
