An Yuan'er tilted her head, her big, round eyes constantly scrutinizing Yi Chenli.
With his handsome and prominent features, perfect face shape, and thin, slightly pursed lips, the man in the wheelchair exuded a princely elegance in every movement and stillness, leaving no room for criticism.
"Why are you looking at me?" Yi Chen looked away, avoiding the girl's blatant gaze.
An Yuan'er smiled alluringly and said with a mischievous grin, "You're so handsome! Although our Sixth Prince is not very old, Yuan'er thinks he is the most handsome man in Shengjing."
Yi Chenli's ears turned slightly red. He covered An Yuan'er's eyes and said, "You're so frivolous."
An Yuan'er became anxious: "Yuan'er is serious."
Yi Chenli didn't argue with the little girl, and handed An Yuan'er a bowl of ginger tea to ward off the cold.
After An Yuan'er finished drinking it, her whole body felt warm.
The days spent reading together were very different from what An Yuan'er had imagined.
"Yi Chenli, why are you giving me calligraphy practice books? I'm your study companion, so by rights I should learn whatever you learn."
"I see things too deeply, they're not suitable for you."
"Then I don't want to practice calligraphy either."
An Yuan'er sat in her seat, but after writing only a few words, she became too lazy to write anymore.
The little girl couldn't sit still. The snow had stopped outside, so it was a perfect time to build a snowman and play in the snow.
Yi Chenli came to check An Yuan'er's handwriting. An Yuan'er had written his name, which was crooked and ugly.
"You can only play after you've finished writing."
"Then teach me."
An Yuan'er pestered Yi Chenli to teach her, and Yi Chenli couldn't do anything about it, so he could only let her be.
An Yuan'er took his hand and covered it with her own: "Yi Chenli, if you don't teach me step by step, I won't be able to write well."
It feels soft and tender to the touch, with no bones at all.
Yi Chen's heart melted. He didn't understand why girls were all so delicate and tender. He was afraid that if she squeezed too hard, he would hurt her.
He guided An Yuan'er's hand to write the character "离" (li, meaning separation).
After finishing writing, An Yuan'er exclaimed, "Yi Chenli, I'm so amazing! This character is so beautifully written."
Looking at his own handwriting, Yi Chenli felt that it was below his usual standard.
His usual handwriting is strong and resolute, but this character lacks some strength and is more gentle.
He awkwardly tried to cover it up: "Then you can start tracing first. Once you're good at tracing, you can try writing it on your own."
"All right."
An Yuan'er said playfully, "In the past, when Yuan'er did things obediently, Father would reward Yuan'er."
Yi Chenli was clever and understood the little girl's implication.
He took out a coral bracelet and put it on the girl's wrist.
"If it's well-written, I'll give it to you."
This coral bracelet is made of red coral, and it feels warm and smooth to the touch when worn. Red coral is also known for its beauty-enhancing and skin-nourishing properties, making the skin delicate.
An Yuan'er played with the bracelet with great interest, then suddenly asked, "This isn't very expensive, is it?"
An Yuan'er was just joking around and asking Yi Chenli for a reward; she didn't really want him to spend money.
Seeing that An Yuan'er liked it, Yi Chenli said without batting an eye, "It's nothing valuable. This coral is fake. I'm glad you like it."
"I wonder which company made this counterfeit; the technology is really good."
"Then I must write it well and try to get the reward." An Yuan'er was full of energy again.
She suddenly felt that it wasn't right to take Yi Chenli's things for free.
She found a red string in her book bag, braided it into a bracelet, and put it on Yi Chenli's wrist.
"It's only fair, isn't it?" the girl said with a smile.
