Chen Qinglin had grown accustomed to Li Wanru’s manner of speaking.
This girl was all bark and no bite.
In his previous life, when Chen Qinglin had just graduated and was at his most difficult, he was so poor he couldn’t even afford food.
It was this girl who helped him out with her living expenses, which saved him from starving to death under a bridge.
With such a ‘life-saving’ kindness, and feeling guilty towards her, what was wrong with her mocking him a bit?
“Haha, what’s wrong? Why are you so angry?”
Chen Qinglin had been through so much in society over the years that he was as sharp as a monkey with fur on.
He could tell right away that Li Wanru was upset.
“Who bullied you? Tell me, and I’ll deal with them for you.”
“Who bullied me? Who do you think bullied me?!”
Li Wanru pinched the soft flesh around Chen Qinglin’s waist and twisted it hard.
“Chen Qinglin, do you have no shame? In broad daylight… you…”
Li Wanru was still an innocent maiden, so she was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
“Hiss… It hurts, it hurts, let go quickly.”
Summer clothes were thin to begin with, and Chen Qinglin was caught off guard.
Li Wanru was also in a fit of pique, so she naturally didn’t hold back, making Chen Qinglin grimace in pain.
“Oh, just let go first, can’t you listen to me?”
“Listen to what? That you’re so shameless?”
Li Wanru’s words were sharp, but she still let go of his hand.
Chen Qinglin rubbed his waist and glared at Li Wanru.
This woman, she didn’t seem like a good person.
“Hiss… Are you trying to murder your husband?”
“You… What nonsense are you talking about?”
Seeing Li Wanru’s little fangs showing, Chen Qinglin quickly grabbed her small hand.
“Alright, let me argue… uh, let me explain to you.”
Three years later, having his hand held by Chen Qinglin again, Li Wanru’s face instantly flushed red.
This scoundrel, he… how dare he, there were still people around.
Li Wanru quickly pulled her hand back and glared at Chen Qinglin, pouting.
She didn’t even realize that her tone had softened considerably.
“You, you speak, let’s see what kind of flowery words you can come up with?”
“Haha, I was looking for her for legitimate business.”
“Legitimate business? Legitimate business requires going to a hotel? You…”
Girls are like springs; if you’re weak, they’re strong.
Chen Qinglin, having lived two lives, naturally understood the essence of eating soft rice with a hard attitude.
“Stop dawdling, are you going to listen or not?”
“You…”
“Hmm?”
“Listen! You speak.”
“Good, that’s a good girl. I was looking for her to borrow money…”
After briefly explaining the situation, Chen Qinglin reached out and flicked Li Wanru’s little head.
“Now you know what the legitimate business was, right?”
“Mmm, I know…”
Li Wanru’s mind was entirely focused on Chen Qinglin’s impending graduation.
Upon hearing him, she subconsciously nodded.
“Huh? You… you… you dared to hit me?”
Li Wanru suddenly realized something was amiss.
This man, how did he become so bold… so mature?
It had to be said, Li Wanru really understood Chen Qinglin.
Even Xu Lu, who was in bed with him, hadn’t noticed Chen Qinglin’s changes.
Yet, with just a small gesture, she sensed Chen Qinglin’s abnormality.
“You what, you?”
Chen Qinglin waved his hand indifferently and slapped Li Wanru’s perky bottom.
“What’s wrong with me hitting you?”
Li Wanru covered her rear, looking at Chen Qinglin in disbelief, her face and ear tips flushing red with shame.
“Chen Qinglin, you… I’ll fight you… you… boohoo…”
What did it mean to be a lamb entering a tiger’s mouth? This was it.
In his previous life, Chen Qinglin had been too slow to realize things.
Now that he had a chance to start over, how could he let the meat at his lips go?
Without giving Li Wanru a chance to struggle, Chen Qinglin wrapped his arm around the girl’s slender waist and kissed her fiercely… Two minutes later, Chen Qinglin licked his lips and gently patted the spot where Li Wanru had just been hit…
“If you dare to lay hands on me again, it’ll be corporal punishment, hmm?”
“K-know it.”
Young trees need to be pruned, and girlfriends need to be managed.
Seeing Li Wanru turn into a little lamb, Chen Qinglin smiled triumphantly and took her small hand.
“Haha, let’s go.”
“Oh… Huh? Where are we going?”
“What do you think?”
“N-no, we can’t… you…”
“Huh? I said we’re going to eat, what are you thinking? Hiss… Could it be??”
“I… I didn’t… You… you’re bullying me.”
“Hahahahaha…”
… Rekindling an old flame and failing to quit smoking are similar.
Failing to quit smoking makes you smoke more.
As for feelings, the longer they are suppressed, the more intensely they erupt.
Li Wanru had endured for three years, finally waiting for her lover to change his mind. How could she not hold him tightly in her grasp?
On the way to eat, Li Wanru held Chen Qinglin’s arm tightly, unwilling to let go for a moment.
Having eaten too many kidneys at noon, coupled with Li Wanru’s hazy eyes, Chen Qinglin felt a bit heated.
“I say, let’s not eat just yet.”
“You… you… you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?”
Li Wanru’s face was red as she glared at Chen Qinglin, huffing.
This scoundrel’s arm was not at all well-behaved.
“Huh? You’re the one holding my arm.”
“You, I… I’ll bite you to death.”
Li Wanru was furious. She glanced around, saw no one, and then hugged Chen Qinglin’s neck and bit him.
“Huh? There’s even such a good… punishment?”
After a long while, until her body felt weak, Li Wanru finally let go of Chen Qinglin.
“Let’s see if you dare to anger me again.”
Chen Qinglin licked his lips, still wanting more.
“I wouldn’t dare, never again.”
“Giggle.”
Having won the first battle, Li Wanru smiled triumphantly and pulled Chen Qinglin along.
“Hurry up, I’m hungry.”
“Wait, I need a moment to recover.”
Chen Qinglin adjusted his belt and began to relax his breathing.
Li Wanru scanned him up and down, then shrieked and turned to run.
“Oh, you pervert.”
Chen Qinglin? Is it my fault?
“When are you leaving?”
At the dinner table, Li Wanru placed the deboned fish into Chen Qinglin’s plate.
“I’ll see you off.”
“See what off?”
Chen Qinglin lightly flicked Li Wanru on the forehead.
Love really did make people’s IQ drop.
“Our homes are in the same place. When I graduate, aren’t you also on holiday? We can just go together.”
“Huh? You’re right! Then wait for me for two days, and we’ll go back together.”
Li Wanru stuck out her tongue and smiled sheepishly.
“I forgot you’re going back to our county town.”
“Silly girl.”
Chen Qinglin ignored Li Wanru’s chiding gaze and forcefully shoved a piece of pork rib with fat into her mouth.
Then, while she was gnawing on the rib, he lit a Huazi cigarette.
Uh… this pack of cigarettes was also given by Xu Lu.
“You prepare well for your exams these two days. I still have some things to do. I’ll contact you after your exams.”
“You… you’re going to see them again, aren’t you?”
Li Wanru’s eyes instantly turned red.
“It’s not that I don’t want to give it to you, but you have to give me some time.”
“Get lost, what kind of person do you think I am? I have serious business to attend to.”
Seeing Chen Qinglin frown, Li Wanru instinctively felt a little scared.
“What business do you have to attend to?”
“Making money. If I don’t make money, are you going to drink the northwest wind with me later?”
Hearing Chen Qinglin mention their future, Li Wanru’s anger finally turned to joy.
She looked at Chen Qinglin with tender affection and mumbled something softly.
“I’d be happy to drink the northwest wind with you.”
“What?”
Seeing that Chen Qinglin hadn’t heard her clearly, Li Wanru slightly raised her voice, causing people around them to turn their heads.
“Nothing, I was just asking if you have enough money.”
Chen Qinglin??
No, I didn’t intend to be a kept man.
