Chapter 301 Progress

"you!"

Yin Huaixi's heart was pounding, and the hand holding her felt particularly hot.

It makes people feel inexplicably palpitating.

Before, Li Xiao was always obedient and a little dull. This was the first time he showed his stronger side in front of her.

This made her even more excited.

Li Xiao grabbed the person with his courage. He thought he would be scolded, but the little hand he grabbed only struggled twice before it stopped moving.

His mind seemed to have suddenly opened up, and he was extremely smart. His men subconsciously exerted a little force and pulled the man closer to him.

Looking down, I saw that the dim sky could not hide the blush on my beloved's face.

That is definitely shame, not embarrassment.

Li Xiao's courage, which was almost exhausted, suddenly gushed out.

"Doctor Yin, can I get a bribe?"

He kept thinking about the words he had overheard. Doctor Yin and the old village chief said that she would not marry and would only invite bribes.

So I asked very directly.

Yin Huaixi was shocked.

She thought Li Xiao was suddenly impulsive and wanted to confess his love to her. Well, yes, this could be considered a confession.

But when she heard this man directly say that he wanted to bribe her, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

When did this person go to inquire? He even knew that he was going to bribe someone.

She was so sensible that she felt a little embarrassed if she didn't agree.

"Do you really want to enter the palace?"

When Li Xiao saw that her first reaction was not to curse, he felt that there was hope and nodded repeatedly in surprise.

"Besides Anan, I have no other relatives in my family. I can make the decision myself. As long as you are willing..."

He looked at Yin Huaixi with anticipation, as adorable as a puppy waiting to be taken home by his owner.

Yes, it's cute.

This was the most real thought in Yin Huaixi's mind at the moment.

She tried to pull her hand away but still couldn't. She could only scold him in a low voice.

"Let go of my hand first. It hurts."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiao quickly let go of his hand, looking very annoyed.

"sorry……"

"It's OK……"

Yin Huaixi put his hands behind his back and rubbed them, then started talking about the marriage again.

"You said you wanted to marry into the Li tribe, but aren't you the leader of the Li tribe? Anan said you have a lot of things to do in the tribe. Are you really willing to give it up?"

Li Xiao shook his head and explained seriously.

"I definitely can't give up completely in the next one or two years. But I have already chosen the next tribe leader, Zheng. He is more outstanding than I was when I was young, and he will be able to stand on his own in two or three years. By then, it will be okay for me not to return to the tribe."

It is said that he inherited the position of clan leader from Grandpa Li Zheng.

When the old patriarch died, Ah Zheng had no elders to rely on, so he took Ah Zheng with him.

The care he provides is only slightly worse than that provided by Anan.

Boys are definitely a little rougher than girls.

Li Xiao began to consciously cultivate Li Zheng very early on. He taught this child himself, and he felt at ease only when the Li people were in his care.

However, I wanted to resign early because I wanted to go down the mountain to find that bastard who betrayed my sister.

Now he had one more thing he wanted to do.

"If, if I can really get married, I need to participate in the major events of the tribe in the next two years, but I will come down the mountain whenever I have free time. When Ah Zheng is older, I will hand over the position of tribe leader to him."

What Li Zheng said were all his true thoughts, and Yin Huaixi was somewhat moved.

This person didn't just say it casually, he really thought seriously about what would happen next.

Yin Huaixi was moved and was about to say something when she suddenly heard the sound of Anan knocking on the door outside.

"Eh? Why is the door closed? Master! Master! Open the door, I'm back!"

Li Xiao, who was blocking the door, was startled and didn't know whether he should let Anan in.

If she were asked to come in now and see that the person who had left before her was still with her master, she would definitely have a lot of questions.

But Doctor Yin did not make a clear statement, and he would be in an awkward position whether to give in or not.

Just as he was struggling, Yin Huaixi pulled him and whispered, "Go hide in the toilet next door for a while. I'll send Anan to the pharmacy before you leave."

Li Xiao nodded obediently and quickly hid in the toilet.

Only after making sure that the person was hidden did Yin Huaixi open the door and let Anan in.

"Anan, the herbs your uncle brought today have not been processed yet. Please go and help me divide them first."

Anan was very happy to have work to do, and immediately ran to the pharmacy. As soon as she left, Li Xiao also hurried out and prepared to leave.

It was done secretly, and even the status was not determined.

Although Li Xiao had a lot to say, it was really inconvenient at the moment. He could only leave reluctantly.

Just as he was about to walk out the door, his sleeve was suddenly pulled by someone behind him. He turned around quickly and heard a sentence that made his blood boil.

"From now on, please call me Huaixi."

After saying this, the person inside the door slammed the door shut without mercy, and even bolted it.

Li Xiao was stunned on the spot, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

Huai Xi...

She let herself call her name!

A belated surge of blood rushed to his head, and he was extremely excited. He ran into the back mountain like a fly, startling flocks of flying birds.

If he wasn't in a strange place, he really wanted to roar and vent the ecstasy in his heart.

She is interested in me too!

————————————————

Yin Huaixi sent the people away, and then returned to the stone house like a thief.

"Mother, are you and Uncle Li dating?"

"puff!"

Yin Huaixi, who had just sat down and taken a sip of water, was shocked when she heard her daughter's question.

How did your daughter know?

The main gate is quite a distance from here, and the voices of Li Xiao and I were very soft, even the pharmacy might not be able to hear us, let alone the stone house.

Oh no! Could Anan have heard it too?

"Mother, you are so timid. You got scared by just one sentence."

Jiang Wan looked at A Niang with a smile and answered her questions very considerately.

"I only saw you talking to Uncle Li at the door. I didn't hear anything you said. As for why I asked you that question, of course I could tell from your expression when you walked in."

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. This saying also applies in reverse.

Jiang Wan knows A Niang too well.

With that slightly shy yet happy expression, she wouldn't believe that there was nothing wrong with it.

Yin Huaixi: “…”

What a sharp-eyed daughter.

"Just tell me what you want, mother. We are not strangers. How are you and Uncle Li doing?"

Yin Huaixi's face turned red and he refused to answer the question.

"You haven't even started yet, stop asking about this."

This time she didn't even drink the water, and went straight into the pharmacy.

Jiang Wan couldn't help laughing when she saw the guy running away in panic.
