Chapter 327: 106: The little fangirl visits, plans to advance _6
Could an ordinary girl compose such a poem if she weren’t talented?
Absolutely impossible!
Li Yanran rolled her eyes speechlessly, “Brother, those involved are often perplexed while bystanders see things clearly. Don’t be deceived by appearances! Li Xianxian is not as wonderful as you think! You have no idea, her manner of eating was so disgusting at the Mo Family’s last time! It was nauseating!”
Li Yanran didn’t like Li Xianxian one bit, and she couldn’t understand why Li Tingzhi fell for Li Xianxian.
How could such a smart and savvy girl like her have such a foolish brother?
Out of all the people, why does he have to fall for Li Xianxian?
She’s such a flirt!
“Li, Yan, Ran!” Li Tingzhi lifted his head, each word filled with a stern warning.
Silently, Li Yanran responded: “Alright, alright. I won’t say it.”
Li Tingzhi glared at Li Yanran, cautioning, “If I ever hear you insult Xianxian again, even if you’re my sister, I won’t be easy on you!”
Li Yanran chuckled lightly, “What will you do? Kill your own sister?”
Li Tingzhi coldly responded, “Try and see.”
At his words, Li Yanran shivered involuntarily.
Oh my god.
Could her foolish brother be losing his mind?
This won’t do!
She can’t let Li Tingzhi sink any deeper into this.
Li Tingzhi needs to see someone who is superior to Li Xianxian.
Then, an image popped into Li Yanran’s mind of someone with picturesque facial features.
Ni Yang!
Not only is Ni Yang a thousand, no a million times more attractive than Li Xianxian, but she’s also exceptionally talented. Most importantly, her cooking is delicious, leaving Li Xianxian far behind in the dust!
Yes!
It should be Ni Yang!
Grinning, Li Yanran said, “Brother, aren’t you going to ask where I went today?”
Li Tingzhi coolly responded, “I don’t know.”
Li Yanran wasn’t bothered by Li Tingzhi’s attitude. Her weird brother never had a good expression for anyone. “I went to a friend’s house. Her name is Yangyang, incredibly beautiful and very capable! Lots of times better than Li Xianxian!”
Upon hearing the last sentence, Li Tingzhi’s expression changed abruptly, “Stop your unrealistic fantasies! In this life, aside from Xianxian, I will never love anyone else!”
Li Yanran responded speechlessly, “Brother, don’t be so cocky! What if you end up truly liking Yangyang?”
Li Tingzhi stated firmly, “That’s absolutely impossible!”
He has seen plenty of attractive girls before, but he is not the kind to judge a person based solely on looks, he values their inner essence.
“What if you fall for her?” Li Yanran raised an eyebrow.
“There are no ‘what ifs’.”
Li Yanran continued, “Brother, is it really worth it? Li Xianxian doesn’t like you at all.” Not only does Li Xianxian not like Li Tingzhi, but she’s also stringing him along, giving him mixed signals, which is what Li Yanran dislikes most about Li Xianxian.
Yet, Li Tingzhi can’t seem to see it, treating Li Xianxian like a treasure.
Li Tingzhi said, “This is my business, not yours.”
Li Yanran replied, “But you’re my brother! How is it not related to me?”
“Take care of yourself,” said Li Tingzhi as he stood up, put on his coat, and walked out.
“Brother, where are you going?” Li Yanran immediately followed behind Li Tingzhi.
Li Tingzhi turned to look back at Li Yanran, “Stop following me!”
With a sigh of resignation, Li Yanran didn’t bother guessing where her foolish brother was heading. He was surely off to find Li Xianxian.
It seems she must devise a plan for Ni Yang and Li Tingzhi to meet.
Li Yanran stroked her chin in contemplation.
As expected, Li Tingzhi had indeed gone to see Li Xianxian.
He waited for a long time outside the girls’ dormitory until he finally saw Li Xianxian come downstairs.
“Tingzhi, I’m sorry for keeping you waiting.”
“It’s fine.” Li Tingzhi seemed a bit nervous standing in front of the girl he liked. “I’m not in a rush.”
Li Xianxian glanced at Li Tingzhi and said, “By the way Tingzhi, I have a favor to ask.”
“Whatever you need Xianxian,” Li Tingzhi said, “As long as I can help, I definitely will.”
Li Xianxian asked, “Could you lend me twenty thousand yuan?”
Mo Baichuan’s birthday was fast approaching, and Li Xianxian wanted to give him a surprise. Additionally, she wanted to repay a debt.
Without hesitation, Li Tingzhi responded, “Of course Xianxian, but I don’t have the cash on me right now. How about I bring it to you tomorrow morning?”
At this, Li Xianxian looked shaken.
She knew that Li Tingzhi had always liked her.
But she hadn’t expected him to agree to lend her the money so readily. After all, twenty thousand wasn’t a small sum.
Twenty thousand in the 80s was equivalent to two hundred thousand in later years!
If she had known how much Li Tingzhi liked her, she wouldn’t have needed to sell blood to buy the Ice Skin Jade Cream last time! She could’ve just borrowed the money from Li Tingzhi!
What a miscalculation!
Li Xianxian internally kicked herself.
How could she have forgotten about Li Tingzhi?
Maintaining her composure, Li Xianxian nodded, “Thank you, Tingzhi. By the way, why did you call me out so late at night?”
Li Tingzhi continued, “Oh, I have something to give you.” He then took out a wood carving from his pocket and handed it to Li Xianxian.
The wood carving depicted a phoenix soaring with wings spread wide.
In Li Tingzhi’s heart, Li Xianxian was a noble phoenix!
Li Xianxian reached out to take it, “Thank you. I really like it.”
Li Tingzhi blushed a bit, “I’m glad you like it. I’ll take my leave if there’s nothing else.”
“Mm.” Li Xianxian nodded.
Li Tingzhi turned to leave.
Just then, Li Xianxian suddenly called out to Li Tingzhi, “Tingzhi, wait.”
Li Tingzhi halted, “Xianxian, what is it?”
Walking over, Li Xianxian gently embraced Li Tingzhi before whispering in his ear, “Tingzhi, thank you so much. I feel really fortunate to have such a good confidant in you in this lifetime.”
Li Tingzhi froze, his heart pounding in his chest.
Feeling Li Tingzhi’s heartbeat, a smile tugged at the corners of Li Xianxian’s mouth. It seemed that she had underestimated his feelings for her.
There was nothing wrong with Li Tingzhi; he was well-off and influential. It was just that he paled in comparison to Mo Baichuan.
The dim night light conveniently concealed their movements.
Had it been daylight, it undoubtedly would have caused a stir, especially considering the conservative standards of male-female relationships in the eighties.
Having returned from the future, Li Xianxian didn’t think there was anything inappropriate about a hug between a man and a woman, as long as their relationship remained that of platonic friends.
As for what Li Tingzhi thought, that was none of her concern.
