Sang Qing looked somewhat bewildered.
She never went to school and lived in a slum as a child, so she couldn't even write her own name. As for learning to read, it was her neighbor, a Gypsy grandmother, who taught her.
Later she learned that her grandmother was also partially illiterate and that her teaching methods were not very accurate.
As she grew a little older, she picked up textbooks that other people didn't want and started reading them.
Perhaps she was truly gifted; she could learn those things at a glance, and through self-study, she managed to barely escape illiteracy. Moreover, in addition to English, she could also speak Chinese.
It wasn't until she came to Southeast Asia that she stepped into the school.
But this school was completely different from the one Jiang Can had described. There were no mischievous boys, only students who kept striving.
Therefore, she couldn't understand what Jiang Can was talking about.
Even if you can't experience it, it's still quite interesting to listen to.
“Sister,” Sang Qing said, sitting on the grass, her chin resting on her hand, “since that boy likes girls, why does he have to do it this way?”
"I guess... that's just the immature psychology of a young boy?" Jiang Can analyzed with a smile. "He likes someone but doesn't know how to express it. The more he likes her, the more he wants to tease her, so that he can leave a deep impression on her!"
“This…” Sang Qing was incredulous, shook her head, and burst out laughing.
“Sang Qing,” Jiang Can gently held her hand, “Actually, even though Nie Xinbai is such a big guy, he’s still a childish little boy at heart and doesn’t know how to express his feelings… But he really, really loves you.”
Sang Qing's face flushed slightly, her eyelids drooped, and her heart pounded wildly.
"Mommy, Mommy!" Little Junyu, who had run a short distance away, came running back excitedly.
Jiang Can wiped the sweat from his brow and asked gently, "What happened?"
"Mommy, look!" Little Junyu spread out his palms. "Worms, worms!"
Sang Qing also went over to take a look.
It turns out that what Xiao Junyu was holding was not a real firefly, but a small toy shaped like a firefly.
"The bug can glow!"
Sang Qing smiled and teased him, "Young master, fireflies don't glow during the day!"
"Glow, glow!" Little Junyu insisted, pointing his chubby finger at the firefly's tail.
Sang Qing then noticed that the firefly was indeed glowing, and that a diamond ring was hidden in its tail!
Jiang Can winked at Xiao Junyu and asked loudly, "Baby, where did you find this little bug?"
"Over there!" The little white dumpling pointed to a clump of bushes not far away, then grabbed Sang Qing's hand, a smile playing on his lips, his adorable eyes charming, "Auntie, let's go, catch bugs! Catch bugs!"
Sang Qing's heart pounded even harder.
The clever girl immediately guessed who was hiding over the bushes.
She didn't want to go, but Huo Junyu was small but strong, and with his fair and handsome chubby face, he had an irresistible charm.
So Sang Qing surrendered, and was half-heartedly dragged by Xiao Junyu towards the bushes.
This clump of bushes is so tall and dense that walking through it feels like entering a maze.
However, little Huo Junyu was surprisingly adept at the route, and with a few twists and turns, he dragged Sang Qing out.
"Sweetie, let's hurry back," Sang Qing whispered. "Be good! Otherwise, your mother will be getting impatient!"
"His mother won't wait! It's clearly me who's getting impatient!"
At this moment, a magnetic voice came from inside. Sang Qing stopped in her tracks, her body stiffened, and her face turned red, all the way to the tips of her ears.
She bit her lip tightly, stood with her back to the voice, and didn't move an inch.
Xiao Junyu looked at Nie Xin, who gave him an OK sign. The little guy smiled, let go of Sang Qing's hand, and skipped over to take a small ice cream cone from Nie Xin's hand, happily eating it.
Nie Xin instructed the servants to take Xiao Junyu to Jiang Can.
At this moment, only he and Sang Qing remained in the bushes.
Sang Qing took a deep breath, and the summer breeze, carrying a slightly damp scent, brushed past her ears, like singing a beautiful ballad.
She smelled the fragrance of flowers and fruits in the air, and her heart trembled slightly, like the chirping of birds.
She was still holding the little firefly in her hand; the firefly's tail glowed, and the glow came from the tiny diamond ring...
Sang Qing suddenly felt like crying.
"Yes...it was my fault." After a long silence, the voice behind him rang out again.
The proud movie star lowered his noble head and begged for mercy in front of her.
"I know I shouldn't have lied to you, but I just... I don't know what got into me, I just wanted to tease you, to see you worry about me, to... to be sure how important I am to you!"
“Actually, Xiao Cheng didn’t give me general anesthesia during the surgery.” Nie Xin scratched his head and chuckled softly. “At that time, I only had local anesthesia, and my mind was still clear. All I could think about was that if I didn’t make it through the surgery, I wouldn’t have any regrets… because at the moment I was shot, I had already put the ring on your finger.”
"Sang Qing, please don't be angry with me, okay? Heh... just consider me silly. I'm such a grown-up, yet I'm playing middle school tricks. I'm so childish... okay?"
After Nie Xin finished speaking, he cautiously looked at the back of her head.
Although his chestnut hair looked even more beautiful in the sunlight, he was too anxious to appreciate its beauty.
However, what he didn't know was that Sang Qing, with red eyes, was secretly laughing there.
What he didn't know was that the little girl secretly took the ring off the firefly's tail, first slipped it onto her middle finger, and then quietly moved it to her ring finger.
"Uh, Sang Qing, are you still angry?" When one tactic didn't work, Nie Xin resorted to a self-inflicted injury, "Ouch, ouch... this shoulder still hurts!"
"Sigh, even though I've been discharged from the hospital, I still have to change my dressing every day. Those servants at home are absolutely incompetent; they can't even change my dressing properly, making me suffer every day!"
"If someone could change my dressing myself, I might recover faster!"
"oops!"
Nie Xin decided to go all out with her act, crouching on the ground, clutching her injured shoulder, and moaning softly in pain.
"Xiao Cheng told me that even if the bullet is removed, some bullet fragments are still embedded in the bone. If it's not properly cared for, it will hurt on cloudy or rainy days... He was absolutely right! I feel quite a bit of pain right now..."
"But I'm fine!" Nie Xin forced himself to stand up again. "Heh, men can just endure it! You don't need to worry about me!"
Sang Qing covered her mouth with her hand, tears streaming down her face, but she couldn't help but laugh.
"Uncle..." she forced a laugh, her voice choked with emotion, "The weather is so nice today, no cloudy skies or rain! How can this hurt?"
