Chapter 48
In the morning of the new year, Zhou Li woke up still a little dazed. She heard some chattering outside the door. It was the voice of an unfamiliar girl. Zhou Li then remembered that Bei Xia had asked her yesterday if she could allow classmates to come to her house to do homework. Zhou Li naturally agreed.
She reached for her phone and saw that it was already nine in the morning.
Are all these students getting up so early during their holidays? Zhou Li began to doubt her life. All she wanted to do during her holidays was lie down.
Wu Huimin, who was outside the door, was visiting Beixia's home for the first time. She was a little excited when she first arrived, as if she was opening a gift.
Bei Xia reminded: "Zhou Li is sleeping, let's be quiet."
Wu Huimin nodded hurriedly.
Then he asked quietly, "Who is Zhou Li?"
Before Bei Xia could answer, Zhou Li opened the door and stood at the doorway of the bedroom, smiling at them and saying, "Good morning."
She was wearing a nightgown with a robe casually wrapped around it. Her two slender legs were half exposed, and she stepped into fluffy slippers. Her ankles were thin, and her face was not greasy as if she had just woken up. Instead, it was white and beautiful. Her beautiful collarbone was half exposed. She raised her hand, and the wide nightgown slipped over her elbow, and her face was full of smiles.
Gentle beauty!
Wu Huimin's eyes widened.
Is this Besha’s relative?
Bei Xia lowered his lips, walked forward, blocked Wu Huimin's sight, and pushed Zhou Li into the room.
"Huh?" Zhou Li exclaimed.
"Put on your clothes." Bei Xia said in a serious tone. He helped Zhou Li tighten his belt and pulled up the collar on his chest, covering it tightly so that only a thin white neck could be seen. Only then was he satisfied.
Zhou Li fiddled with Bei Xia lazily, thinking that it was his lazy appearance in front of Bei Xia's friends that made her unhappy.
Bei Xia naturally took Zhou Li's hand and said, "I went out this morning and bought breakfast from your favorite restaurant."
"Wow!" Zhou Li was instantly happy. "When did you go out?" she asked, leaning forward, her face very close to Beixia's.
Bei Xia smiled and said, "It's not too early. I just happened to pick up my classmate and buy some."
Wu Huimin was still standing obediently in the living room waiting for them, and Beixia introduced them to each other.
"Zhou Li."
"Wu Huimin, my deskmate."
Wu Huimin had actually seen Zhou Li before, but Zhou Li was always in the car, so she just glanced at him from a distance. Now, when she heard Bei Xia's introduction, her mind drifted away.
[This is Zhou Li...]
Zhou Li leaned halfway out from behind Bei Xia and waved to Wu Huimin: "Hello, classmate. Have you eaten yet?"
"I've eaten, sister!" Wu Huimin said sweetly.
Zhou Li glanced at Bei Xia sadly.
Everyone is willing to call her sister, except Beixia.
Bei Xia pretended not to hear it and said to Wu Huimin, "Come to my room and write."
"What about my sister?" Wu Huimin's eyes slid across Zhou Li's face reluctantly. After all, everyone wants to take a second look at a good-looking person.
"Let her do her thing," Besha said.
Wu Huimin waved to Zhou Li, "Sister, let's go in."
Zhou Li stepped aside, making way, and waved his hand cutely: "Go ahead."
Wu Huimin entered the room and excitedly whispered to Bei Xia, "Sister is so cute!!!"
Bexia looked at her and said nothing.
Of course, she knew how cute Zhou Li was, but Beixia didn't want to share this cuteness with others and only wanted to see it herself.
Wu Huimin saw that Beixia didn't say anything and covered her mouth. She was so excited to see her beautiful sister that she forgot that Beixia was not a talkative person.
The two of them quieted down. Bei Xia came out and got a chair for Wu Huimin to sit on. Zhou Li was sitting at the dining table, eating breakfast while looking at his phone.
When he saw Bexia coming out, he smiled at her with his eyes curved.
Beixia pursed her lips, glanced at her and went back to her room.
Zhou Li:?
It was fine just now.
She tilted her head, confused.
Ask the system: "Is this also a sign of puberty?"
System: "Should be."
Zhou Li was surprised: "You can also use uncertainty to express it?"
system:……
It should just be left to rot in the ground!
After breakfast, Zhou Li went to the balcony to stretch.
The shadow swayed on the ground, then went to fetch water to water the flowers.
Because there were guests, the door of Beixia's room was not closed. Beixia was very focused on doing the homework, but Wu Huimin was not so focused. When she heard the footsteps outside the door, she followed the sound and looked over. She scratched her ears and cheeks because she didn't want to do her homework and her mind was not on the test paper at all.
She said to Besha, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Bei Xia took a moment to pull his thoughts away from the paper and said, "The bathroom is across the street."
"Yeah." Wu Huimin responded, went to the bathroom, and then ran to the balcony to chat.
Zhou Li was humming a song in a good mood, bending down to water the flowers and tidying up their branches and leaves.
Flowers in the north are not easy to grow in winter because they are too dry. The flowers placed on the balcony are easy to grow. They are more like grass than flowers. Her fair face is placed among the dark green branches and leaves. The sunlight shines on her from the window, casting a holy light on her, making her white even more dazzling.
Although he was wearing ordinary clothes, it looked like a gorgeous robe.
Wu Huimin was stunned and accidentally tripped on the sliding door of the balcony.
"Be careful!" Zhou Li heard the voice and had no time to move. He could only close his eyes reluctantly. Wu Huimin barely managed to hold onto the wall and avoid falling.
The commotion on the balcony was so loud that Bei Xia looked over to the seat next to her. Wu Huimin had been gone for a while and hadn't returned. She went out, glanced at the bathroom door, and saw it was open. She then walked back to the balcony. Zhou Li was holding Wu Huimin up, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
Wu Huimin blushed.
Why would he make such a fool of himself in front of Bexia's sister?
Her face flushed red, and she tried desperately to explain: "Sister, I'm fine! I just tripped, I didn't fall!"
Zhou Li frowned slightly. "There's a hurdle here. You're not familiar with our family. Just come more often in the future." She smiled at Wu Huimin, who instantly forgot her words and fumbled, "Yes."
Zhou Li wanted Beixia to make more friends. This was the first guest to come to her home, so she wanted to do a good job.
Bei Xia pursed her lips, walked over and said, "Let me do it." But her eyes were a little cold when she looked at Wu Huimin.
Wu Huimin shuddered and immediately woke up, jumping out of Zhou Li's arms, "I'm really fine! Sister!"
Beixia: "Sister?"
Wu Huimin looked at her, and Zhou Li also looked at her in surprise, "You called me?" with a look of anticipation.
Bei Xia turned her face away awkwardly and called softly, "Yes, sister."
Zhou Li instantly forgot about Wu Huimin. Smiling coquettishly, she approached and coaxed, "Scream again."
"elder sister."
"Again……"
Before Zhou Li could finish her words, Bei Xia interrupted her impatiently. She said to Wu Huimin, "Didn't you say you were here to do your homework? I've already finished the test paper. Do you still want to do some?"
The words are very impolite. If you don't write, you can get out. I'm going to see you off.
Faced with Bei Xia's momentum, Wu Huimin immediately shrank her neck like a quail.
"I want to write! Sister, I'm going to do my homework first!" She said to Zhou Li first, and then smiled ingratiatingly at Bei Xia: "This time I will definitely finish a paper before leaving the table!" She almost swore to the sky.
Zhou Li watched them quarreling with a smile.
Bei Xia snorted coldly, "Come here quickly."
Wu Huimin trotted over.
Bei Xia watched Wu Huimin run into the room, then she said to Zhou Li awkwardly, "Stop smiling at others."
After saying that, he left.
That cold back was as ruthless as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
Zhou Li:
Zhou Li looked at the empty living room with a confused look on her face. She muttered to herself, "Is this also puberty? Is she worried that I'll steal her friend?"
Do all adolescent children have such a strong possessiveness?
Zhou Li was confused.
After watering the flowers on the balcony, Zhou Li took out his computer to research this so-called puberty, trying to find the reasons for Bei Xia's personality. However, the more he looked, the more confused he became. However, Zhou Li found that in all educational research, there was a common point: "Parents should be tolerant of their children during puberty."
Zhou Li was in deep thought.
It seems that she is not gentle enough towards Bexia. For example, this time she did not feel Bexia's anxiety and fear.
Zhou Li sighed.
It seems that friend Wu Huimin is very important to Beixia.
After reaching this conclusion, Zhou Li continued to do his own thing.
However, Bexia in the room was a little restless. She looked at the test paper, her eyes full of worries.
Were her words just now too harsh?
Beixia was upset because she didn't really mean that.
She just didn't want Zhou Li to get too close to others. She just wanted those eyes and those hands to touch her.
Only she knows her desire and torment.
Bei Xia bit her lip, looked at the paper in annoyance, frowned, as if she had a deep hatred for the paper.
Wu Huimin glanced at her secretly and shook her head with reluctance.
What kind of question could make my deskmate, who usually doesn't express his emotions, so difficult? It seems this question is very difficult to solve.
She sighed in her heart, and looking at the test paper, she couldn't help but frown, the expression on Bexia's face was exactly the same.
Both of them stared at the test paper with deep hatred.
Zhou Li took the time to look at Bei Xia's room. The two of them were sitting side by side, writing papers.
She nodded, expressing her appreciation for the efforts of the college entrance examination candidates.
Without disturbing the two children, Zhou Li walked lightly and ordered takeout to reward the two children.
It was noon when the takeaway arrived. Zhou Li put the takeaway on the dining table before calling the two of them. She stood at Bei Xia's door, knocked on it, and said, "You've been writing all morning. Come eat something and relax."
Wu Huimin happily put down her pen, and noticed that Bei Xia beside her was silent. She looked at Bei Xia in distress, who was still working on the questions.
Since her deskmate didn't stop, shouldn't she continue to stay with him?
Zhou Li came over and held Bei Xia's hand, stopping her from writing. She lowered her head and said to Bei Xia, "It's time to eat, or you won't grow taller, okay?"
Besha's eyes fell on their clasped hands, and she lowered her eyes: "I understand."
"So let's eat." Zhou Li let go of his hand and smiled.
Wu Huimin cheered.
Bechat put his right hand under the table and couldn't help covering the back of his hand with his left hand, which seemed to be burning.
Walking to the dining table, Beixia glanced at the seats. She sat down next to Zhou Li silently, leaving the seat opposite her empty.
In the past, she always sat opposite Zhou Li and ate face to face with Zhou Li. Now that the seats had been changed, Zhou Li was the first one not used to it. She couldn't help but look at Bei Xia.
Bexia had a blank expression on his face, and nothing could be seen.
On the other hand, Wu Huimin's face was full of surprise, and it was obvious that she was a very understanding child.
Wu Huimin asked happily, "So many delicious foods?"
Zhou Li smiled at her and said, "This is all a reward for you, especially you. This is your first time as a guest in our house, so we must make you feel at home."
"Thank you, sister!" Wu Huimin's words were still as sweet as ever.
Bexia pursed her lips and sulked alone.
Zhou Li took care of Wu Huimin and did not forget Bei Xia. She handed the cutlery to Bei Xia and helped Bei Xia to pick up the food that was difficult for her to pick up.
Zhou Li had just put the drink next to her when she suddenly felt her sleeve being gently tugged. Zhou Li turned her head to look over and saw Bei Xia calling out expressionlessly, "Thank you, sister." Her ears turned red after she said that.
Zhou Li's heart skipped a beat. He was so adorable by Bei Xia that he felt like he was her older sister.
Bei Xia, who usually never called her sister, called her that several times today. Zhou Li's mouth corners curled up slightly, and she looked serious but the little tail in her heart was so excited that she didn't know how many times it had been raised and wagging.
