Chapter 353: Two Little No Guesses
I understand Lu Tao's mood, but I still feel a little sorry for Long Ling, so I said to Lu Tao: "The light is too dim, it's not good for the eyes, in this case, Long Ling may be short-sighted very early in the future." β
"It's okay, the lights are on in the back room." Lu Tao said to me.
I went in to take a look and found that the lights were on in the back room, and then I realized that Lu Tao was just working with candles on his own, but he asked Long Ling to read with the lights on.
This situation touched my heart for a while, and I nodded immediately and entered the back room.
The space in the inner room was relatively small, and Lu Longling was lying on a shabby small table reading and writing at this time.
When she saw me coming, she stood up a little nervously.
She changed into the same set of tattered clothes as before, which made her a little shy, and her little hand subconsciously pressed a hole in the torn cotton jacket, and some cotton was exposed in the hole.
"You don't care about me, read by yourself, I'll sit with you for a while, and ask me if you have any questions you don't understand." I waved at her and motioned for her not to be nervous.
When she heard me, she sat down again and continued to read.
I sat down on the bed next to her, picked up my English textbook and looked at it.
"That, Brother Yiji, how to do this question?" After a while, Lu Longling plucked up his courage and turned his head to say a word to me.
I leaned over and carefully helped her explain, then looked at her beautiful handwriting, and couldn't help but praise her: "Your handwriting is very beautiful, when you used to study, you must have studied very seriously." β
"Hmm," she nodded, peeking at me, and seeing that I was looking at her, she immediately lowered her head in shame.
"What's wrong with you?" I looked at her and said, "Why do I feel like you're scared of me?" β
"No, it's not," Lu Longling was a little nervous as soon as I said this: "No, Brother Yiji, you, don't get me wrong, I, it's just, just nervous." β
"Why the nervousness? We're the same age, what are you nervous about? I wondered.
"I, I don't know," Lu Longling said as he squeezed his little hand.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but sigh, and I probably understood what was going on.
Obviously, since the two of us met, I have appeared in front of her as a little adult, and their father and daughter were all rescued by me, so that Lu Tao was a little nervous in front of me, so her performance was normal.
At that time, thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little helpless, and I felt strange in my heart.
Fortunately, we are all children, at first, she was indeed a little nervous, but as we talked more, she gradually relaxed, from time to time pursed her mouth and smiled sweetly, and her crooked eyes seemed to be able to speak.
I tutored her for almost two hours before I stopped and started chatting.
I asked her who she learned all those acrobatic moves from, and she said that her master taught her, and she had been learning dance from a master since she was a child.
This made me a little strange, I wondered how she had the money to learn dance from a difficult family.
As a result, she said that when she was young, the family was very good, but then her mother left, and her father encountered some things, which became what she is now.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but nod and asked her, "Did your mother pass away, orβ"
"She's gone," Lu Longling said here, his expression full of sadness, and it took a long time before he said to me: "She said that there is something in the clan that she needs to do, and she must go." After she left, she didn't come back for a long time. Then they fought, and my dad was injured, and he fought to the death to protect me from escaping. I'll tell you a secret, my dad wasn't like that beforeβ"
"Dragon Spirit!"
While we were chatting, Lu Tao suddenly came in, interrupted Lu Longling's words, glared at her and said, "Have you forgotten what I told you before?" Don't talk nonsense about our hometown. What do you kid know?! β
When Lu Tao said this, Lu Longling immediately lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.
I was a little embarrassed, so I got up and looked at Lu Tao and said, "Uncle, Long Ling is just talking casually, don't blame her." You're managing her too hard, and it's not good. β
"What the little master said is that I'm a little impulsive," Lu Tao smiled, then looked at the sky and said, "Little master, it's too late, it's hard to walk in the dark, or you can stay tonight." β
"Forget it, I'd better go back to school, it's not far anyway." I smiled and turned to go out.
"Long Ling, send the little master," Lu Tao said to Lu Longling when he saw this.
Lu Longling hurriedly got up and chased after me.
A moment later, we came out into the street together, the dim street lamps were shining, the cold spring breeze was blowing, she walked silently beside me, and did not speak for a long time.
"Okay, let's go back, rest early, I have to go to school tomorrow." I picked up the car, looked at her and said.
She nodded, looked at me for a long time and said, "Brother Yiji, thank you, don't worry, I will definitely repay you in the future." β
"Okay, then I'll wait for your reward," I smiled, "how are you going to repay me?" β
Hearing my words, Lu Longling looked at me with some surprise, and it took a long time to look at me with a frown and say, "You, you, why?" As soon as you help us, you justβ"
"Doesn't that seem strange? Do you think I'm going to say something like that? I smiled, couldn't help but grab the car, went around and touched her head and said, "Then let me tell you, people who say that kind of thing are often not sincere, they don't need to repay, they just want more." For example, if I say that I don't need you to repay me, then I must have taken a fancy to you and am ready to ask you to be my daughter-in-law, do you understand? β
"Then you, aren't you going to please me-" Lu Longling asked as he looked at me a little tangled.
"Don't be stupid, I've never thought of it that way. Let me tell you, I experienced a lot of these things before I met you. At that time, I summed up a truth, that is, kindness and love are not two different things, and if we forcibly mix these two things, it will only lead to tragedy in the end. I actually understand your current state of mind, you must have always thought that I had taken a fancy to you and would help you, right? Then I'm telling you now, I don't have this idea, you don't have to be nervous with me, you don't have to think about it at all. We're just good friends. After I finished speaking, I pushed into the car and rode on, and said to her, "Of course, if you want to repay me, that's fine, but you have to work hard first." I'm very greedy, and I'll be unhappy if you don't repay me properly. β
"Well, I understand, thank you, Brother Yiji," Hearing my words, Lu Longling's eyes finally lit up, and then she actually subconsciously ran up to me and kissed me.
"Look, what are you doing here?" I said with embarrassment.
"Don't do anything, didn't you say I'm your sister? Then I'll kiss you, it's nothing? Lu Longling said to me with a wink.
"Well, of course it's okay to kiss it, the point is, did you eat garlic for dinner, it tasted too strong," I said.
"Oops, nasty! I'll go back to sleep and ignore you. The little girl's face was flushed with shame, and she turned around and ran away. ++ Important notice of this site: Are you still chasing with the web version? Still bothered by advertising issues?
