After An Yuan'er went inside, she felt that the atmosphere inside was strange.
"Is Father-in-law talking badly about me to Yi Chenli?" An Yuan'er's big eyes darted between the two of them.
Li Gui quickly shook his head: "How dare this servant?"
An Yuan'er and Li Gui joked, "So, Father-in-law doesn't dare. If he did, then wouldn't that be..."
Li Gui had no idea where the little girl got so many strange ideas, so he quickly begged for mercy: "Miss Yuan, please don't make this old servant feel bad..."
"Then you must tell me the truth, Father-in-law, what little secrets do you two share behind closed doors?"
Li Gui was in a dilemma. She definitely couldn't tell the truth, but the little girl was clever and hard to fool.
"Round and chubby, don't tease Li Gui."
After Yi Chenli finished speaking, he gestured to Li Gui to prepare the meal.
Li Gui breathed a sigh of relief and fled the study as if escaping.
An Yuan'er pouted and said, "You're so stingy. Fine, don't tell me then."
"When you've had enough fun, sit in the study and read some books."
An Yuan'er clearly hadn't had enough fun and still looked like she wanted more.
She came over and pulled Yi Chenli: "Yi Chenli, don't stay in the study all day, go out and play together?"
Yi Chenli subconsciously glanced at his legs, remaining silent.
Even if it were any other day, let alone today being a snowy day, Yi Chenli would not want to go out.
His legs can't move freely, so even if he goes out, he can't run around. What's the point?
But An Yuan'er wasn't going to let it go so easily. She ran behind Yi Chenli's wheelchair and was about to push him out.
The wheelchair was too heavy, and the little girl couldn't push it for a while.
"Yi Chenli, we need to supervise each other. I'll take care of your exercise outside of studying, and you'll take care of my studies. We can learn from each other's strengths and make up for each other's weaknesses so that we can keep improving."
An Yuan'er's words were reasonable and well-founded, but Yi Chenli sensitively pried An Yuan'er's hands off the wheelchair.
Yi Chenli's resistance was an instinctive, subconscious reaction; his legs were immobile, and the wheelchair was his legs. Yi Chenli never allowed anyone to touch his wheelchair.
The force of the impact caused An Yuan'er to fall awkwardly to the ground.
The girl was delicate, and her knee was bruised and swollen.
"pain!"
The girl unconsciously let out a soft gasp.
Yi Chenli turned his wheelchair to the girl, lowered his head, and said softly, "I'm sorry."
"sorry."
They said "I'm sorry" in unison.
Both of them apologized to each other immediately.
An Yuan'er spoke first: "Don't apologize to me, it was my fault for touching it."
Yi Chenli is sensitive, and since this is the first time the two have been close, some inconveniences due to differences in their daily habits are inevitable, leading to friction.
An Yuan'er thought in frustration: "An Yuan'er, you're so stupid. The wheelchair is his legs! If someone touched your legs, you would have already lost it. Besides, Yi Chenli just pushed you away. How could you touch something he cares about so much so casually?"
Yi Chenli picked up An Yuan'er and sat her down in a chair.
He moved gently, taking out the ointment and applying it to An Yuan'er's knee.
The ointment was effective, but it was very irritating. An Yuan'er's eyes welled up with tears from the pain, but she held them back.
He spoke with difficulty: "Roundy, when you're with me, you don't have to be so cautious, you don't have to be so sensible."
The little girl is clearly a willful and spoiled person who cries at the slightest pain, but now she doesn't take it to heart for his sake and is forcing herself not to cry.
Yi Chenli thought that being with him must be very tiring.
Once she truly understands him, Yuan Yuan will definitely find him very boring and leave him.
