Miss Village Beauty Chapter 117, 117: Opening Her Heart (Fourth Update) 117: Opening Her Heart (Fourth Update) "Being new to this, I saw the adults enjoying themselves so much while smoking, so I brought a pack from Liu's small store and tried it out—this is the content of Chapter 117 of 'Miss Village Beauty.'" Lu Yun said, attempting to take a deep breath. But to his surprise, the smoke was incredibly harsh—just as the smoke entered his throat, he was immediately choked and began coughing violently. Liang Hongyu grew furious, intensifying the force of her fists. "Oh dear, are you going to crush me!" she exclaimed, her voice rising. "Then do it! Crush me! Crush me!" Her delicate fists rained down upon Lu Yun's back with frantic energy. "Please, please, forgive me! We know we're wrong! From now on, we'll never touch that thing again!" Lu Yun pleaded softly, voice trembling with pain. "Liang Hongyu heard this and immediately launched into vigorous resistance, 'You've deceived me! You've made me worry all this time for nothing—wheeeewww...' Lu Yun flipped over and lay beside her, tightly embracing her with both arms, quickly explaining, 'I know I've been unreasonable. At first, I intended to lure you out, to play some little tricks. But seeing how anxious you were, I suddenly regretted it.' Lu Yun paused, then continued, 'That day when we exchanged notes, I thought you were merely being enthusiastic, perhaps even pouting. But after these past few days, I've come to realize that you truly care for me...' Suddenly, Liang Hongyu interrupted him, speaking softly, 'I've always been genuinely kind to you. At first, you used to always tease and treat me unfairly—I didn't know how much I disliked you. But gradually, I can't explain it—I find myself slowly developing a place for you in my heart.' Lu Yun sat up, instinctively reaching for his cigarette, but then remembering that Liang Hongyu seemed to dislike him smoking, he abandoned the idea and lifted his eyes through the dense foliage, his voice soft and hazy: “Hongyu, you should know I’m a poor man, with neither father nor mother—there’s no telling what kind of life I might have ahead of me…” “I know, but what does that really mean?” Lu Yun interrupted, letting out a self-deprecating chuckle. “Yes, all of that may not mean much, but there’s one thing I must tell you.” Noticing Lu Yun’s tone had shifted, Liang Hongyu sat up straighter, leaning against him, listening quietly as he continued. “I never accept my fate—I never have. So, when I grow older, I’ll definitely leave this place and venture into the wider world.” Liang Hongyu spoke gently: “If you have me in your heart, I’ll accompany you wherever you go.” Lu Yun reached out and embraced her, his grip astonishingly firm. Liang Hongyu felt the pain so intensely that her delicate brows furrowed tightly together, yet she held back, refusing to emit a single sound of discomfort. Shaking her head, Lu Yun's gaze grew cold: "Throughout my life, I will have many women. You might just be one of them. Therefore, being with me, you will endure unexpected injuries—perhaps not physical, but certainly lasting emotional wounds that will remain forever." Liang Hongyu came up with what she considered the most reasonable explanation. "The content you've just given isn't from Chapter 117 of the rural beauty's narrative." "Then why did you have to say this to me? Why? Do you not realize how cruel this is to me? Do you not know how cruel it is?" Liang Hongyu could no longer hold back her emotions and wept softly against Lu Yun's shoulder. "I said all this precisely because I knew the consequences," Lu Yun said, his voice growing passionate. "I don't want any girl I care about to suffer. To be cruel for a moment is better than making you suffer for the rest of your life. Hongyu, I am destined to be no good person. You—perhaps you should step back." Liang Hongyu cried out, "What about Lu Xiaoying? Will you treat her the same way?" Lu Yun remained silent for a long time before finally murmuring, "Perhaps." Perhaps! Liang Hongyu fell silent, hugging her knees, weeping without sound. "Little Yu, it's getting cooler now. Let's go back home." Lu Yun sighed, reaching out to wipe the tears from Liang Hongyu's face. Liang Hongyu turned her body, avoiding Lu Yun's hand, and choked, "Don't touch me." Lu Yun's hand remained stiff in the air; he closed his eyes and vigorously shook his head, trying to drive away the gloomy thoughts swirling in his mind. Good heavens, what had happened to him? Didn't he intend to feast on Xiao Zhiyu's tofu in the small grove? Why, instead of enjoying the tofu, was he now pouring out all his hidden feelings to her? Was it possible that he truly liked this girl? Then wouldn't he be the very man who changed his heart at every new encounter—some kind of fickle, heartless dandelion head? Yet, while berating himself as a fool, Lu Yun found a quiet comfort within himself: although he had his sights set on meeting countless beautiful women, for Liang Hongyu, who truly cherished him, tonight's words would finally give her a clear understanding of him. "Lu Yun, will you really have many women?" The choked words of Liang Hongyu echoed softly in the night. Since she had already been fully informed, there was no point in hiding anything further. Lu Yun promptly nodded, saying, "Yes." Liang Hongyu remained silent once again. Just as Lu Yun was about to offer some comforting words, he saw her wipe away her tears and turn to face him directly, her eyes shining with unwavering determination. "Then, since you'll have many women in the future, I shall be your first woman!" She said this without waiting for Lu Yun's response, and immediately threw herself upon him, laying him flat on the grass. ... Rural Beauty No. 117, 117: Opening Her Heart (Fourth Update) Complete!
