Chapter 422: Reverse Strategy (At 4 a.m.) Chapter 422: Reverse Strategy "If you don't come back with me, I'll tell Mr. Zhang about the time you secretly watched me." Seeing Lu Yun still hesitating, Liu Yun began to threaten. This is the chapter content of "Rural Beauty 422." Hey! Isn't it just about wanting to be pushed around? What's the point of playing games with threats like this? "Alright, since you've insisted, if I don't come with you, it will seem like I'm not appreciative at all." Lu Yun said, and then stepped forward toward the canteen. ***, having encountered many strong individuals, she had never seen someone so formidable yet so utterly unimpressive—such a petite woman. "Now that's what I call it! If you'd been like this earlier, I'd have had to waste all that time talking. Just remember to make me pay for all that later." Liu Yun chuckled softly, catching up with Lu Yun, and they walked side by side. "Brother-in-law, it's so late now that I'm still going to the canteen. What should I say if Zhang Brother asks?" Lu Yun glanced at her and said. "Just say whatever comes to mind," Liu Yun replied with a smile of victory, speaking carelessly. Lu Yun was taken aback and exclaimed, "Are you telling him that you're itchy and want me to scratch your back?" Liu Yun laughed and scolded, "How silly of you! Zhang Brother is already in a mess now. He used to bother me every day, often, and if you say that, aren't you just making it worse? Be careful—he might actually twist your head off." "Then I'd better not go at all. Even if I don't mention it, if he finds out that I'm with you, he'll still twist my head off. I really want to enjoy a few more days of white-bread steamed buns," Lu Yun paused, looking at Liu Yun. Liu Yun pouted, saying, "You're just a plain white bun, aren't you? I'll make sure you have a full meal while I'm here. If you don't leave soon, I'll tell him you've been spying on us. Even if he doesn't squeeze your brain out, he'll definitely pry out your eyes!" Good heavens! Another threat to me! Now it truly makes sense—what's written in the proverb, 'Self-made misfortunes can't be avoided.' Land Yun finally understands it. Had he not been so enthusiastic and accidentally ruined Zhang Yi and Liu Yun's moment, he wouldn't be under such pressure now. He wouldn't even be forced to battle it out with her in the canteen. "Brother-in-law, I'd like to go to the restroom first." Land Yun tucked his hands into his pocket and felt the magic pencil sharpener. Zhang Yi isn't easy to handle. While other things are manageable, if that black bear discovers him performing duties that should have been his own—on his wife—well, his face would immediately darken. Without even needing to roar, he'd probably snap his own head right off. Though Zhang Yi might be rendered useless in that moment, it doesn't mean his bear paws—those that dare even face a knife—wouldn't still be effective. Lu Yun, though fearless in all things, didn't want to simply have Zhang Yi snap his head off like that. This content is from Chapter 422 of "Rural Beauty." So, as soon as he felt the pen knife, Lu Yun recalled the scene in the bathroom, ready to try his old trick again—his brother wouldn't react, now you're going to threaten us! Lu Yun didn't believe that Liu Yun could match Zhang Yunqian's skill in making her brother jump with a pair of scissors. "Are you planning to escape?" Liu Yun asked, her eyes fixed firmly on Lu Yun. Lu Yun hurried to say, "No, I just wanted to go to the restroom—I'm really holding it now. If I can't make it before we start working, I'm going to spill your Water Curtain Cave completely!" Liu Yun stepped forward, pinched him, and pouted, "Then go ahead and spill it—I don't want you playing games with me. What if you actually run off?" Lu Yun chuckled, covering his abdomen and below with both hands, pretending to be in urgent need of urination, and said, "Sister-in-law, I promise I won't run. I'm truly holding it now." "You were fine just a moment ago—how did you suddenly get so urgent?" Liu Yun eyed him suspiciously, then gave a soft huff, "Well, then, if you can't hold it, you'd better rush inside and spill my Water Curtain Cave!" For heaven's sake! Even going to the bathroom is now being treated as a formality—how demanding this young lady is! Lu Yun groaned, "Sister-in-law, my urgency was actually caused by what you just said!" "What did I say?" Liu Yun stared at him, asking firmly. Lu Yun spun in place twice, stomping his feet and saying, "It's still your fault—your fault for telling me Zhang Gong was going to twist my brain right off! When you scared me, my bladder just couldn't hold back. If my urine really started rushing straight into your Water Curtain Cave, how would I even manage to do anything else?" "I'm coming with you. I just can't be sure you'll be safe on your own—you've got so many tricks up your sleeve." Seeing Lu Yun's face turning red with embarrassment, Li Yun worried that if he stayed that way for too long, he might end up with a bladder infection—then what would be left for fun? "It's pitch black down there—just don't go. I'll come over myself after I've finished with the water. This is the text content from Chapter 422 of 'Rural Beauty.' "Y's going to the bathroom is all about trying to scare off her little brother who's currently holding his head high. If you follow her, how will she manage? From the way Lu Yun seems to be acting, if she really goes with me, she'll definitely head to the men's restroom and keep a close eye on every move I make!" Lu Yun urged. Land Yun instantly slumped his head, realizing how tenacious this woman was. Fine, she could go—just as long as she didn't start making a scene in the bathroom and try to take over! With no room for negotiation, Land Yun walked toward the restroom with a look of growing frustration, while Lu Yun stayed right beside him, completely unconcerned about whether her husband would suddenly burst out of the canteen. "Wait a minute, sister, I'll be right out after I finish!" Land Yun said to Lu Yun, who was still closely following him as they approached the restroom. "I'm a bit afraid myself. If not, you just handle it here—no one's around to see." Liu Yun suddenly pressed herself against Lu Yun, glanced around at the quiet scene, broken only by occasional insect chirps, her voice trembling slightly. "Sister-in-law, look at the sign on the wall—it clearly says: 'Non-pig, non-dog guests must use the restroom outside; no urination or defecation allowed inside.' You don't really expect me to become livestock, do you?" Lu Yun gently wrapped his arms around Liu Yun's surprisingly frail frame, offering reassurance. "Just a few quick movements, and it'll be over. It won't take long—just wait for me, okay?" As he spoke, he released her and stepped toward the restroom. "I'm coming in with you." Liu Yun grabbed Lu Yun's arm firmly and followed him into the men's restroom. Wow, I actually did come in with him! Lu Yun was speechless. "Hurry up! You're making me nauseous!" Liu Yun pinched her nose, urging Lu Yun to turn on the water quickly. "I told you not to follow me in—yet you wouldn't listen." Lu Yun spoke while slowly adjusting the water flow, and, when Lu Yun didn’t notice, reached into his pants pocket and pulled out a pencil sharpener, demonstrating it gently over the small, still-spraying figure. He silently hoped, "Brother, give me a chance—just lower your head, will you?" Yet, the little one still held his head high, completely ignoring Lu Yun’s plea. "This is taking forever," Lu Yun urged from behind, impatiently. Lu Yun sighed, "Sister, I can’t remember the details—do I have to wait until I finish urinating?" Lu Yun huffed, holding her nose and patiently waiting. Finally, the last few drops squeezed out. Lu Yun pulled up his pants, deeply frustrated, and said to Lu Yun, "Sister, I’m done. Let’s go." Just like a captured prisoner, he was escorted back to the canteen by Lu Yun. With a nervous glance toward Lu Yun’s bedroom, Lu Yun hoped that Zhang Yi wouldn’t suddenly appear and start giving him a hard time, and reached out with his broad palms to twist his own head. "What are you looking at?" Liu Yun came back from the bathroom, thoroughly washed her face at the sink, and was now gently drying her hands with a towel when she noticed Lu Yun staring anxiously at her bedroom. She asked, "Is everything okay?" Lu Yun cleared his throat dryly and spoke softly, "I'll just check if Zhang Brother is asleep." Liu Yun sighed lightly, "He is asleep. If this were earlier, he'd be bothering me nonstop right now. But now that he's injured, after finishing his work at the canteen, he simply goes to bed and stays there—completely unwilling to move." "Zhang Brother really is quite pitiful," Lu Yun added, sighing as well. Liu Yun chuckled wistfully, "It's all just fate. There's nothing we can do." "Brother, don't worry too much," Lu Yun said. "This weekend, I'll go visit Zhang Brother and see if I can get him some medicine—maybe we can help him recover." Lu Yun thought of the man with a thick beard. His little one had been so unusually restless—probably due to having drunk his ten-complete-replenishing soup. If he could get some of it back to give to Zhang Yi, who knew, it might produce an unexpected effect. Liu Yun nodded and took Lu Yun’s hand, leading him toward the bedroom. Lu Yun jolted, urgently asking, “Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Are we going to your room?” Liu Yun looked at him in surprise and chuckled, “Yes, aren’t we going to do it right here?” Lu Yun was completely defeated, “Sister-in-law, Zhang’s already sleeping in his room. No matter how quietly we move, he’ll surely hear us.” Pointing to the sofa beside them, he suggested, “Why don’t we just handle it right here? The sofa is so soft and comfortable.” Liu Yun smiled and whispered, “You’re so startled—so timid, yet you’ve managed to grow such a sturdy little man. I never thought a timid fellow like you could develop such a robust physique.” Wow! How could this be just about stealing the show? It's clearly been forced upon me by your domineering little woman! Reverse timeline! A phrase suddenly popped into Lu Yun's mind. "*Sigh, what are you still waiting for?" Liu Yun seemed completely unconcerned about being discovered by her man, still holding Lu Yun's hand as they walked toward the bedroom. ...//Rural Beauty 422, Main Text 422 Reverse Timeline (Fourth Update) Completed!
