Chapter Seven, the first stirrings of love.

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Liyu Kun fell into self-doubt, lost the mood to continue reading, picked up the workbook in the corner, and even Tang Wuwu didn't want to go find it. He went downstairs and back to his room with melancholy.

Liyu Ke felt her face in the dark. Is her face haggard? Well, haggard is the right word. Whether this family owes her or not is uncertain, but it definitely owes her mother. It would be strange if she didn't show them her haggard face.

It is rare for Ye Qingyan to speak so much with Li Yufan. However, Li Yufan feels that Ye Qingyan seems to want to expel her from this wonderful world.

Your father also likes to read books. This study room is specially set up for him. Without my permission, no one, including Yuxuan, Yuhan, and Wuwu, can enter or leave freely. Many of the books here are out of print. You kids don't understand the meaning of "cherish".

Lí Yǔ Kūn carefully examined the photos. The young man in them looked quite handsome, but she truly believed that Qin Baihua was no less attractive than him.

She has always been described as a carefree and optimistic child. In fact, she is not carefree, she just immersed her heart and lungs in the sea of books. She is not optimistic, she just keeps calm and doesn't want to show too much pessimism to make her mother worry. And these sedimented pessimistic emotions, she brought them into the world of books, and resolved them one by one with various wise words.

In the darkness, she heard Li Yuxuan's coquettish complaint: "Oh, Wu Wu, you are so annoying!"

Actually, she has loved reading since she was a child, all kinds of books, no matter what they were about, she liked them. She didn't have much pocket money to buy books herself, but she read every book in every little partner's house in the village. Sometimes, just after a fight, when she had beaten someone up badly, as soon as she heard that person had bought a new book, she immediately licked her face as if nothing had happened, and went to their house with two apples to borrow and read the book. Qin Baihua said she had thick skin, but she told him it was the magic of books.

Tang Wuwu joked with her: "Where did I become annoying? Can I be as annoying as your Ning Jiayan or Xu Jia's big brother?"

They didn't even give a smile, just let you casually read a few books, how did it become like you received a great favor from them! What's the deal with that bubbling feeling of joy in my heart? Where is your integrity as a person? What happened to being rebellious and untamed? What happened to your determination to go against the people in this family!

During the quiet of the night, Li Yucun remembered the question the person with small glasses asked her during the day.

Ye Qingyan looked up and examined her for a moment. When she spoke again, her voice was as emotionless as ever, with a clear and cool tone: "If you really like it, you can come and read, but remember not to casually flip through the ancient books in the last two rows. If you want to read them, ask your father first. Also, when reading any book here, do not spit or turn the pages with a pen, and do not take any books out of this room without saying goodbye. There is a sandalwood bookmark at the end of each row of bookshelves. Use it to mark the page if you haven't finished reading a book, and do not fold the pages. Since you like books, you must cherish them."

Yesterday was the weekend. Xiaoyanjing went to the Radio and Television Center to observe the city-wide high school debate competition. This morning, as soon as the first class bell rang, she couldn't hide her restlessness and grabbed Li Yucan, shaking her vigorously while releasing her own budding hormones: "Dakakaka, I saw Ning Jiayan from Yizhong yesterday!!"

She was awakened by two soft voices talking. She opened her eyes and found the room in complete darkness. It turned out that it was already night.

Liyu Kua feels trembling and wonders if she is being cheap...

Until it got dark, so dark that she couldn't see the words on the book anymore, she got up and turned on the light.

She likes to immerse herself in the world of books because at that time she can forget the various unpleasant things that fill her real life.

She listened carefully, and those two faint voices belonged to Li Yuxuan and Tang Wuwu. She originally wanted to get up and leave. She wasn't really interested in listening to Li Yuxuan's gossip. However, when she tried to move, she realized that one of her legs had gone numb and was completely unresponsive.

Liyu Keng clicked her tongue. Li Yuxuan, who is fifteen years old, unexpectedly had a crush on a girl.

Lí Yǔ Kūn thinks Lí Yǔ Xuān is really funny. She was arguing about the order of their names without sorting it out clearly. After all, she was the one who was born first, and if we talk about name similarity, it's also similar to Lí Yǔ Xuān's, okay?

She picked up a book and sat on the carpet by the window to read. As she was reading, she unknowingly fell asleep.

He asked her in a verbose manner via text message where she had dinner, why she didn't answer the phone, if everything was alright, and when she planned to come home, and so on.

Everyone has been looking for you to have a meal for a long time, but couldn't find you, so they have already eaten in advance.

When she was a child, other kids who were bullied had their fathers to support them. But she didn't. So, without her father's support, she had to rely on her own fists to grow up little by little, and become stronger and stronger, until she was no less powerful than those kids who had fathers.

Good child

Lí Yǔ Kūn responded with a soft voice. When Yè Qīngyán turned around and left, she whispered "Thank you".

Li Yuke glanced at her, frowned, and spoke in a flat tone: "Yue Ying, don't you think you are making unreasonable demands? Why should I take it to heart? I am not a saint. If you treat me badly, why should I repay it with kindness?"

Liyu Ke disdainfully pursed her lips and said, "Do you have a photo? Let me have a look and see if there is the most handsome young man in our Lihua Township!"

After reading the text message, Li Yukan couldn't help but shudder.

However, while feeling cheesy, she couldn't help but read the text message again, then shivered for a moment, shivered again after shivering, and continued to shiver until the meal was brought in. She ate while looking, and continued to shiver.

Before meeting her master, she was like a blade of grass that couldn't lean on a big tree, easily swayed by any gust of wind, causing her to be disoriented.

Liyu Kun feels that her father is really worried about her. However, for some reason, this kind of worry makes her feel a little sour, especially when she thinks that recently he seems to be in poor health and getting thinner, her nose also feels sour.

The lights came on, and this world of books became even more enchanting under the colorful lights. Li Yucan looked up and covered the book he was reading with his face, breathing deeply in a state of intoxication.

Liyu Ke also asked herself in her heart: Why am I so good at fighting?

Li Yuku did not bargain at all this time, and agreed without hesitation.

After quickly finishing his homework, Lí Yǔfēi plunged into the study on the second floor.

Before Ye Qingyan left, she paused and said, "If you get hungry later, ask Auntie Biao to arrange for someone to heat up some food for you. Also, remember to let your father know that you'll be studying here tonight, so he won't worry about you."

Even the girl with small glasses no longer needs to cover up when talking to her. During the break, they can even gossip and play together like other girls.

She thought for a while and decided to make an effort. In order to seize the opportunity to read, she didn't hesitate to put away her stubbornness and used the honorific "您".

Liyu Kanakai quickly turned around and saw Ye Qingyan standing elegantly and coldly at the door of the study.

Lizhi's reply came quickly: "I heard from your Aunt Ye that reading is a good thing, good child! I asked Aunt Biao to heat up the food for you and it will be delivered to your room right away. Make sure to finish all of it!"

Lí Yǔxuān said angrily in a suppressed voice, "I really hate that Lí Yǔcēn! She always looks so miserable all day long, I don't know who she's trying to impress. It's like our whole family owes her something! Let's get this straight, now it's my family who's supporting her! And Dad, why did he give her a name so similar to mine!"

Liyu Kun discovered a large study in the villa.

Liyu Kan sighed silently and turned off the lights to go to sleep.

Liyu turned around and saw Yueying standing pale behind him.

Ye Qingyan nodded slightly: "It's good to love reading. In this aspect, you and your father are quite alike. But next time, remember to bring your phone with you, so that when we can't find you, your father won't worry."

She was completely shocked by the rows of exhaust-like bookshelves and layers of cool books. She felt that this study was no less impressive than the library in the city she had visited, and even the solid wood carved bookshelves were more luxurious and domineering.

...Li...Li Yucun, what happened before was my fault. Can you please not take it to heart?

The small glasses had a "You've got to be kidding me" expression on his face: "Ning Jiayan! The cold-faced school grass and high-value learning tyrant of Yizhong, Ning Jiayan! The outstanding boy who fulfills every girl's fantasy, Ning Jiayan!" After saying that, he rolled his eyes at Li Yucan, as if Li Yucan didn't know who Ning Jiayan was, which was not just a matter of being ignorant, but also a serious offense.

Yue Ying's complexion suddenly changed from pale to ashen.

Liyu returned the phone to Xiaoyanjing and said seriously, "My friends in Lihua Township have similar levels of attractiveness."

During the phone call in the evening, Qin Baihua said, "I thought that when you arrived in the city, you could try to be a little hypocritical, a little pretentious, and make an effort to become a true woman. But I didn't expect that in just a few days, you would reveal the banner of the Pear Blossom Village's little tyrant. It's over, now no one will dare to marry you anymore!"

The bespectacled man took out his phone from his pocket and showed Li Yukan the photos he took at the scene yesterday.

She then wanted to cover her ears. But she happened to hear her own name coming out of Li Yuxuan's mouth. The two hands that had already moved halfway through the air were put down again.

Who?

Since Li Yufei became the dominant figure in the class, her life at school has finally become peaceful and quiet as she desires. However, no matter how discreetly she asks her classmates not to spread the news of her fighting, her reputation for being brave and skilled in combat still spreads quietly.

Liyu Ke is not sure if Ye Qingyan's words contain blame, but after reading for an afternoon, she is in a good mood and doesn't care to explain a word or two.

She took a deep breath through her nose.

The ponytail is so tight that the hairline is being pulled back. What's the point of having a messy hairstyle? Why is it that her idol from the countryside and the city kids are never on the same wavelength? Shouldn't we be saying something wild and unrestrained like "Don't fall in love with your brother, it's just a myth" at this moment?

One must not be deceived by a few so-called "fatherly love" sugar-coated bullets! She must remain firm and unwavering in her opposition to the capitalist bourgeoisie in this household!

Why are you so good at fighting?

The small glasses choked up for a moment.

Liyu Kun paid no attention to how pitiful and adorable she looked. She is a woman, not a promiscuous man. This little act has no effect on her whatsoever.

The person with small glasses stared at her blankly for a few seconds, then snorted.

One of them was paying attention to her hairstyle, while the other was staring blankly. A voice drifted by them like a ghost.

In the classroom, as soon as the teacher left, Xiaoyanjing immediately plunged into Li Yufen's arms.

I was reading in the study and lost track of time. I left my phone in the room, but there's no need to worry.

That day, she couldn't figure out how to do a certain homework problem no matter what. Thinking that Tang Wuwu was in the same grade as her and attended a prestigious high school, she thought maybe Tang Wuwu could help her. So she carried her homework book and went upstairs. As a result, she didn't find Tang Wuwu's room, but instead stumbled upon a spacious study room.

Liyu Kang carried a book, not knowing what to reply, so he chose to remain silent.

Liyu quietly touched her small glasses and muttered, "In the eyes of a lover, even a plain-looking person can be as beautiful as Xi Shi." She touched her own earlobes and inexplicably felt a slight warmth there.

Her father is really cheesy.

A flat and cool voice suddenly came from the doorway.

Liyu calmly pushed up her glasses, smoothed her bangs, and asked, "How does my hair look? Is it messy?"

She continued, "Don't provoke me in the future. This way, I can maintain the same attitude towards you as before. If you continue to provoke me, I will really lose my patience. Then I will treat you just like I treated those hooligans earlier, without any mercy."

The books here are very interesting, and I got so engrossed in reading that I forgot about the time.

Liyu gently touched her own face.

Li Yuku tried hard to stabilize his almost dislocated shoulder.

So you're here.

Decline is decline, but the sensation under her fingertips has become much more wonderful than before. She doesn't know if it's her own psychological effect, but she feels that her skin has become smoother and fairer recently. Speaking of which, she really has to thank Tang Wuwu for the skincare set she gave her.

Ye Qingyan's footsteps paused for a moment, but did not stop.

Yue Ying bit her lip and whispered, "I can't do it."

Until she went upstairs, Li Yucang couldn't help but knock her own head.

However, although the decision in her mind was firm and resolute, her fingers automatically replied to Li Zhi with a message that could be described as gentle and graceful.

Look at him! The photos make him look ugly, but he still looks handsome. If he looks this good in photos, imagine how handsome he must be in person!

She threw her workbook aside and pounced on rows of books. She quickly immersed herself in this world filled with the fragrance of paper, and had long forgotten the original intention of coming upstairs.

Nonsense! I don't believe it! You must be deluded to think that your little companion is on the same level of handsomeness as Ning Jiayan, just because of the eyes of a lover! I have never seen anyone more handsome than Ning Jiayan!

Idol! Please accept me, idol! I love you so much, idol! How are you so amazing, idol!!!

She couldn't make Xiao Yanjing understand in just a few words. In fact, despite having a father, she had to become strong on her own because she didn't have a father since childhood. So she had to tidy up her bangs, adjust her temples, and ask: "How does my hairstyle look? Is it messy?"

She sat down in front of the desk and picked up the phone on the table to take a look. There were five missed calls and three text messages, all from Li Zhi.

When I think of Tang Wuwu, I hear Tang Wuwu's voice saying, "You complained to me about this before dinner. I have already told you everything that needs to be said. Just do as I say, and it will be right! Now, while there's no one around, you can tell me about your little worries. Don't worry about being overheard by your aunt and uncle next door."

Liyu Kou sneered and said, "I like you, marry me, what do you say?" But deep down, a vague flame stirred in her heart, making her blush.
