Even though the wound on your lips healed quickly, Xian Qianling’s actions still moved you.
To tell the truth, Xian Qianling was indeed very beautiful, so perfect that it left no room for criticism.
Apart from her tendency to randomly kick people, there were virtually no other faults. If it had been someone else, or before knowing Zhao’er, being entangled by her this way might have made someone cry tears of joy.
But, in this world, there are no ifs, and nobody can change what has already happened.
You fell straight down from above, supported yourself on your hands, did a somersault, and then you were able to stand firm.
Just as you landed, Xian Qianling had already climbed onto the grape arbor. That Crazy Woman might not have superpowers, but her physical agility was no joke; otherwise, you wouldn’t have fallen for her moves several times.
"Hey, what are you standing there stunned for? Hurry up and get up here."
As she spoke, Xian Qianling even threw an unprecedented coquettish glance at you.
Oh, cave toilet, damn that seductive look! You admit there was a moment when you were tempted!
You backed up a few steps, then charged forward swiftly, easily gripping the grape arbor with your hands, after which you used your arm strength to arch your body in midair like doing a pull-up, supporting your upper body on the arbor.
When you were ready to pull up your right leg and were about to tuck in your left leg, a burst of fragrance suddenly hit your nose, and then Xian Qianling’s voice came from ahead of you: "Hey, Li Muyun."
Damn it, kissed again!
That soft touch that seemed to melt your entire body and that fragrance coming from her breath, infiltrating your body, was potent enough to corrode your heart and lungs!
Xian Qianling’s usually ice-cold cheeks now bore a ribbon-like tender flush; with her lips pursed in a smile, she looked as enchanting as a garden in full bloom, with myriad purples and brilliant reds.
"That was a punitive kiss, this is a sweet reward."
You plainly laid atop the grape arbor, sighing with a defeated expression, "I mean, Miss Xian, is all this really necessary?"
"I control my own life, I’ve told you, I’ve fallen in love, and everyone else is excrement to me except for you!" Xian Qianling declared with a candidness not typical of a woman, like a forthright girl from beyond the Great Wall, directly expressing her feelings, "I know Zhao’er holds your heart right now, but I won’t lose!"
You climbed onto the grape arbor, stood up with a sigh: "This is turning out like I’m some kind of Stallion, and here I am just Sculpted Silk."
Xian Qianling stared straight at you with an intense gaze: "You don’t understand. When a girl truly falls for a guy, she’ll do everything she thinks is worth it! Besides, didn’t you and Little Yun have an agreement? Four years in college, just dating, no marriage; starting from now, I’m joining your dating camp."
"I... " You patted your forehead, what else could you say now?
That’s impossible, but so what if you can’t accept? Could you reason with Xian Qianling using common sense when she was a Crazy Woman?
Forget it, never mind!
After all, being a man, in the end, it definitely won’t be you who loses out!
Thinking this, you then felt at ease.
"Let’s go, let’s go see Uncle Li." You walked past Xian Qianling, now speaking without a tone of rejection.
A girl’s thoughts are always sensitive; seeing your reaction, she immediately came up giggling.
"Hey, don’t!" You swiftly turned your head away.
"You think I’d kiss you again? Dream on!"
Yay, she’s getting all tsundere!
You both sneaked around, no, that’s not right; lurked stealthily, hmm, not quite; in short, you both tiptoed like thieves across the concrete grape arbor to Uncle Li’s room.
At that moment, Uncle Li was sitting in the living room, his face glowing with health as he steeped tea.
Unlike earlier, he wasn’t talking to himself, but leisurely humming a tune.
"Hey, that’s odd, why has Uncle Li stopped talking? Could that thing have left?" As Xian Qianling spoke, the door beside Uncle Li opened.
When Xian Qianling turned her head, her eyes widened in shock, and she suddenly jumped in fright!
After the door opened, what came out was... a qipao!
Yes, that’s right, just a qipao!
The qipao wasn’t standing on its own; it felt as though it was worn by someone, moving like a person, it approached Uncle Li and sat opposite him.
The qipao sat down, just as if a person was sitting there!
"Come, come, come, try the tea I’ve made."
Uncle Li poured two cups of tea nonchalantly, sipped from his cup, while the qipao simply sat there, listening to Uncle Li’s storytelling, doing nothing but acting as a devoted audience.
Seeing this, you understood, tapped Xian Qianling’s shoulder and said, "Let’s go."
"Go? We can’t leave, you haven’t caught that ghost yet, you can’t just leave Uncle Li in danger."
"That’s not a ghost."
"Huh? Not a ghost, then what is it?" Xian Qianling looked at you in surprise.
You jumped down from the concrete grape arbor, ready to speak, and oh my, what did I see!
Xian Qianling quickly twisted her legs together and glared fiercely at you.
"Sao Rui, Sao Rui, didn’t mean to, but just happened to look straight there," you chuckled while looking at Xian Qianling, suddenly finding that from this angle she seemed to have fewer edges and actually looked quite cute.
Seeing that you were still looking, Xian Qianling snapped, "You’re still looking!"
"Such a beautiful view deserves a longer look, it would be a pity not to."
You sauntered off like a little hooligan, humming a tune, a mischievous smile on your face.
Just a few steps away, you suddenly heard a painful cry behind you, "Yi!"
Turning around, you saw Xian Qianling had jumped down from the grape arbor and twisted her ankle.
"Are you okay?" You hurried over and helped Xian Qianling up.
As soon as Xian Qianling stood up, she squatted back down.
"Don’t move; let me check." Noticing the pained look on Xian Qianling’s face, you got a little anxious.
You felt her ankle and discovered it was significantly swollen.
"Your ankle’s swollen; I’ll carry you to the car."
"No need, I can walk by myself."
"I said I’ll carry you, so I’ll carry you. Listen to me!"
Ignoring Xian Qianling’s protests, you stepped in sideways, bent your body slightly, and with reverse hands supported Xian Qianling’s body, lifting her onto your back.
Lying on your back, Xian Qianling put her face against your shoulder, arms affectionately wrapped around your neck, the corners of her mouth gently rising into a sexy curve, smiled.
"Put me down, it’s embarrassing with so many people watching."
On the return journey, despite many onlookers, you remained insistent, speaking in a very forceful tone, "Since when did you care about other people’s stares, didn’t you see those girls looking at you with envy? As for those guys, just ignore them."
