Chapter 18 She Only Likes Sheng Yuxiao
Qin Sui was hungry all night and couldn't sleep. When he woke up the next day, he looked even gloomier.
But Li Xiaoya was not afraid of him at all.
She said in a hard tone, "I'm going to school. Goodbye."
Qin Sui's stomach was a little uncomfortable at this moment. He grabbed the little girl's arm and said, "You don't want to eat breakfast?"
"Go to school to eat, it's free." Li Xiaoya replied.
[You weren't like this when Sheng Yuxiao was around. You at least steamed some potatoes for him and gave him hot water to drink.]
[Haha, I don’t know why, but I suddenly think Li Xiaoya is cuter like this]
[There is a difference between close and distant relatives, and double standards are deeply rooted in people’s hearts]
Qin Sui originally wanted to ask, what about me?
But when the words came to his lips, he felt that it was nonsense, so he narrowed his eyes and made a straightforward decision: "I will go to school with you."
Li Xiaoya responded, "Oh." It was hard to tell whether he was happy or not on his face.
Qin Sui suddenly felt a little depressed.
Of course, he is usually the center of attention. Although he considers himself above vulgar tastes, he doesn't care about other people's flattery or fawning on him.
But being ignored to this extent... is really a bit hard to get used to.
Qin Sui packed his belongings without saying a word, then followed Li Xiaoya on the road.
The area where the landslide occurred has not been completely cleared yet, so Li Xiaoya took another more circuitous route today.
"This road is very dangerous." Qin Sui said in a deep voice.
The road is too narrow and it is easy to slide downhill.
Li Xiaoya's thin figure was in front, without even turning his head: "Is it dangerous?"
Qin Sui grabbed her and said, "Don't leave."
"I want to go to school." Li Xiaoya pushed his hand away.
Qin Sui could only follow her, thinking coldly in his heart, he would just see if she would fall down...The production crew was crazy, how could they let such a child walk on such a path by herself?
An atmosphere so quiet that it was almost deathly silent lingered around.
The sharp wind in the morning blew across his face, and Qin Sui couldn't help but tighten his coat. But the slender figure in front of him didn't notice it at all, and just kept moving forward step by step.
Just as Qin Sui was looking at her silently.
“Plop——”
Qin Sui slipped and fell into a paddy field by the roadside.
Water and mud surged up instantly, soaking his clothes and rushing in through his collar.
Qin Sui was frozen numb for a moment before he realized what had happened and his face turned pale.
【What the hell! 】
The barrage was stunned.
[Will this not cause any trouble? ]
[Don’t worry, paddy fields won’t drown anyone]
Li Xiaoya in front heard the noise, turned around in time, and ran to Qin Sui's side.
"How did you fall into the field?" Li Xiaoya asked in confusion, tilting his head.
Qin Sui: “…”
He felt despised.
At this time, the production crew, who were following far behind, saw that something was wrong and were about to rush up, but they held back when they thought of the highlights of the show.
So Qin Sui waited for a while, and found that the program crew did not move. Suddenly, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he reached out to grab the ridge on the side of the road and turned over.
He brought up the water and splashed it all over Li Xiaoya.
Li Xiaoya looked at him unhappily: "You made me dirty."
Qin Sui felt better. He looked down and saw that the girl's face was covered with mud. But she was pretty, so even if she was covered with mud, she looked cute in a messy and embarrassing way.
Li Xiaoya took out a handkerchief from her cloth bag and wiped her face. Then she looked at Qin Sui, hesitated for a moment, and handed it to him.
"Wipe it for me?" Qin Sui was a little surprised.
"Well. You can wipe it off and go back." Li Xiaoya said, and turned around and left. She seemed to not want to be held back by Qin Sui anymore.
Qin Sui wiped his face hastily: "Go back? There is no gas or shower room in your house, where can I go to take a shower and change clothes?"
Li Xiaoya turned around and looked at him strangely: "You can boil water yourself."
Qin Sui: "..." Boil water for a bath? Just imagining it, Qin Sui's head began to throb with pain.
"There should be a bathhouse in your school, right? I'd better go with you." Qin Sui made the decision calmly.
"But the school is still far away."
"How far?"
"We still have to walk two hours up the mountain road."
“…”
"You'll blow a cold."
“…”
Qin Sui now had only one thought in mind, which was to tell his biological father after he returned that the Ming Dynasty antique that he had spent 30 million to collect was a fake.
Qin Sui had never said it before because he didn't want to hurt his father who had little knowledge of history and culture.
But now…
He just wanted to pierce his own father's heart.
"Forget it." Li Xiaoya sighed softly, "I'll take you to find someone who lives nearby."
【I feel that Lai Siu-ya’s heart is tired】
[This family is all supported by Li Xiaoya! Woohoo, I really can’t help but like her a little more]
Before the main road was built, Li Xiaoya had walked this path countless times, so she was very familiar with where people lived.
She took Qin Sui to a house, looked inside, and her tone revealed a little sweetness: "Aunt, is there any hot water? We fell into the field."
Qin Sui used the hot water boiled by others and used the stove to dry his clothes.
When I came out after cleaning up, Li Xiaoya was bargaining with someone: "Auntie, ten dollars is okay?"
The aunt said, "No, no, fifty!"
Li Xiaoya said pitifully: "But I don't have that much money."
My aunt put her hands on her hips and said, "Everyone in the surrounding area knows that you are recording that show. They all say that you should pay back the money your father owes you. Recording a show is so profitable, and I haven't even asked you for a hundred dollars."
Qin Sui vaguely understood something and interrupted to ask, "Why do we have to pay?"
Li Xiaoya glared at him: "Because you used her water and stove."
Qin Sui thought for a moment and said, "Just give her the money. Aren't you going to be late for school?"
Li Xiaoya shook her head angrily: "You can be late, but you can't pay more!"
Qin Sui couldn't understand: "Give her a hundred, and then I will give you ten times, no, thirty times."
After hearing what she said, the aunt was overjoyed: "That's right, that's right, city people are still generous. Little Duck, give the money to aunt quickly."
Li Xiaoya was so angry that he glared at Qin Sui, took out a fifty-dollar bill from his pocket, stuffed it into his aunt's hand, then grabbed Qin Sui's hand and ran away.
My aunt cursed behind me: "Didn't you say it was 100? Damn it, you are so stingy! You little girl is playing tricks on me."
【……】
[Giving her a hundred is really an exaggeration. Lai Siu-ya doesn’t have much money. She lives such a hard life and saves every penny with great effort! She also used the money to pay off the debts of Lai’s father.]
[If this is the liar Li Xiaoya that the villagers are talking about, then I think he is a good liar. Why should I give them as much as they want? ]
[Ah, Qin Sui is making me so anxious, the young master really doesn't know the sufferings of the world! You are not as good as Sheng Yuxiao! Sheng Yuxiao, please come back soon, Li Xiaoya really can't live without you! ]
After running a long way, Li Xiaoya paused and said in a muffled voice: "Just return me fifty."
Qin Sui was speechless.
For a moment, I felt like I had done something wrong.
But he could give her more money...
"Why not?" Qin Sui asked directly.
"What?"
"I'll give you thirty times the compensation, why don't you take it?"
Li Xiaoya didn't say anything for a long time. She walked forward and said, "There is no good without reason. Good things... have a price."
Qin Sui thought, is this okay?
He asked, "What about Sheng Yuxiao? Why can you accept him being nice to you?"
Li Xiaoya kicked away the small stone at his feet, lowered his head and whispered: "He is different."
Qin Sui was too curious. With Sheng Yuxiao's temper, wasn't he even more annoying?
He asked, "What's the difference?"
Li Xiaoya turned around and glared at him fiercely: "Anyway, it's different, different from you!"
She has beautiful eyes and eyebrows, and even when she looks fierce, she doesn't look hateful, but even more adorable.
Qin Sui thought, he had to figure it out.
Why can Sheng Yuxiao win her favor?
