Chapter 457 Wen Leyu's Snowball
Li Ye, holding the hand of Wen Leyu, quietly chased after Mu Yuning who was not far away. On the snowy road by the lake, he did not make much sound.
Li Ye observed carefully and found that Wen Leyu stepped in the footprints of the previous ones with every step, and from time to time he turned back and made a very light "hush" sound.
Only then did Li Ye deeply realize that Wen Leyu's one-year training in stabbing with him was not in vain. Before, she was just a skinny and weak bean sprout, and needed Li Ye's constant infusion and care to become moisturized and plump again.
But at this moment, as he tiptoed, Wen Leyu's two long legs had become very flexible, agile and light, unearthing his hidden talent for agility.
Two minutes later, Mu Yuning in front suddenly stopped under a street lamp, forming a "hidden confrontation" with the man who followed him.
Wen Leyu also stopped, and after observing for a few seconds, he suddenly turned his head and leaned towards Li Ye's ear.
This is a secret message to Li Ye.
"Teacher Mu has a problem with this man. Just now, the man kept trying to get close to her, but she kept resisting."
Li Ye nodded slowly to show his agreement.
He was also aware of this situation. Just now, the man had been trying to hold Mu Yuning's hand, but Mu Yuning always refused. In the end, he simply put his hands in his coat pockets.
Then the man wanted to take her arm, so Mu Yuning took a few quick steps and stopped under the street light.
In a bright and upright place, any dirty thoughts will be exposed.
Teacher Mu started talking, but Wen Leyu couldn't hear clearly because the distance was a bit far.
Her little head immediately began to shake flexibly. She looked around and pulled Li Ye to make a circle. Using a bunch of withered trees on the side and the night as cover, they successfully approached within a distance of more than 20 meters.
Teacher Mu's voice finally became clear.
"The last time I went to the lighthouse, I told you very clearly that we are over. We are no longer friends, so please don't push it or have any dirty thoughts."
“.”
Mu Yuning's words startled the three people around her, especially the man who had always wanted to hold her hand, who had an incredible expression on his face.
"When I confessed my love to you by the lake six years ago, why didn't you say I had dirty thoughts? Now I just want to go back to the way we were six years ago. How is that dirty?"
"Heh~, six years ago?" Mu Yuning smiled coldly and said sarcastically, "The person who confessed to me six years ago was Yu Lichen. Who are you now? Jaken Yu?"
"Yun Ning, you are too extreme. I chose an English name so that I can get along more easily with my friends, just like our colleagues in the mainland are usually called Lao Wang and Lao Zhang."
Yu Lichen defended himself anxiously, "Besides, whether I'm called Jacken or Lichen now, I'm still the same me. I came back from the lighthouse this time just to find you."
"You looking for me?"
The sneer on Mu Yuning's face intensified: "What have you been busy doing these days? If Xiaojuan hadn't exposed you today, I wouldn't have known that you had been back for half a month."
“.”
Yu Lichen was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "I have been working hard for our future these days! The treatment given to me by several companies is not ideal, and I have been fighting for it with them.
If we don’t have a good material foundation and a bright future, how could your family agree to let us be together? When I left four years ago, your family was not optimistic about us.”
“.”
Li Ye and Wen Leyu hid behind the dark bushes, listening to Yu Lichen's heartbreaking confession under the street lights, feeling as if they were watching a drama.
That’s right, it’s a drama.
Under the street lamp, Yu Lichen narrated his past with Mu Yuning almost in the form of poetry recitation. He said that he and Mu Yuning were deeply in love, but were separated by Mu Yuning's family. Then he went abroad to study hard, and returned to his hometown for love, and so on.
With such acting skills, it would be a shame if he didn't act in a drama.
At this time, Wen Leyu, who was beside Li Ye, leaned over and whispered to Li Ye's ear, "Do you think Yu Lichen is lying?"
Li Ye thought for a moment, then turned his head and whispered in Wen Leyu's ear, "If we hadn't seen each other for a few years and I suddenly returned to China, do you think I could bear not to look for you for fifteen days?"
Wen Leyu looked at Li Ye, and after two seconds she chuckled, "I don't know."
Li Ye smiled and asked again: "What if it was you? After you came back from being abroad for a few years, could you bear not to come and see me for a few days? Tell me the truth!!!"
Li Ye asked Wen Leyu close to her ear, which made her ears itch and her face turned red, but she still answered honestly: "I can't wait for a day."
Li Ye spread his hands, which meant "Isn't it over? Yu Lichen was lying."
Yu Lichen didn't contact Mu Yuning for half a month after returning to China. He was just busy with work. Now he's saying it's for the future of both of them? What's going on?
Let’s not mention that Teacher Mu has already made it clear that the two of them no longer have any relationship.
Even if they are in a relationship, shouldn't any normal man, after being separated from his girlfriend for a few years, the first thing he does when he comes back is to hug her, give her a surprise, and confess his longing for her?
But you can bear not wanting to see him for half a month? Is there something wrong with your mind?
Of course, there was nothing wrong with Yu Lichen. What he and Mu Yuning said next opened the eyes of Li Ye and Wen Leyu.
Mu Yuning silently waited for Yu Lichen to finish a play, and then asked coldly: "Are you worthy of Heatherine by saying this to me?"
“.”
Yu Lichen was stunned for a moment before he said, "I broke up with Heatherine. Eastern and Western cultures are still somewhat different. She and I have always had differences in some concepts, so it is best for us to be together."
Mu Yuning was shocked and said, "You and Heatherlin have been living together, and you want to break up just like that? Is it that easy?"
"this"
Yu Lichen twisted his face and hesitated for a moment before saying, "This is a very normal thing in Lighthouse. Love is free. When you no longer love someone, ending the relationship is the best choice for both of you."
"Okay, okay, I don't want to play guessing games with you anymore."
Mu Yuning interrupted Yu Lichen's explanation coldly and said bluntly: "You overstayed your government-sponsored study abroad, so you must have had some troubles when you came back. So when you were looking for a job, you felt wronged, right?"
“.”
Yu Lichen was stunned for only a second this time, and then he said confidently: "But I am back, right?
When we first started sending students abroad, many people doubted that many would not come back, but didn’t the boss make a statement in the end? "
"He believes that the talents cultivated by the great Chinese nation are all patriots with flesh and blood. When the motherland is in danger, they will never stand idly by. Even if some people choose to stay abroad, we fully understand and respect this."
"And I didn't stay overseas. I came back. Why do you still doubt me over trivial matters?"
“.”
After Yu Lichen said this, Mu Yuning was speechless for a moment.
Because when we first decided to send students abroad, we did encounter some resistance, and in the end it was an open-minded leader who made the final decision.
Many open-minded leaders of the older generation plan that even if they only make 20% of their money back, it is still a profit. After all, sending students abroad at this time is the best way to quickly understand the world.
That's why so many people didn't come back later. Even among the 1,422 government-sponsored students sent by a certain university in Shanghai since 1979, the return rate was only 63%. This result was actually expected by the bigwigs above.
But no matter how expected it is, if you have overdue return, you have been overdue return. You have been labeled with a certain label during the screening process, so if you want to be treated the same as those who return normally, that is definitely not easy.
Li Ye didn't quite understand why Yu Lichen came back. Logically speaking, a man like him should go all out and fight to the death in the Lighthouse Country.
Moreover, with the "elite" of a mainlander and the four-year professional education foundation of Peking University, it was not difficult for Yu Lichen to find a job after graduating with a master's degree from Lighthouse University. So why did he come back with a shameless face?
Mu Yuning looked at Yu Lichen, who looked aggrieved, and asked calmly, "Since you are not satisfied with the treatment you receive in the mainland, are you planning to return to Dengta? On a flight this week? Or on a flight next month?"
"No, I would rather serve my country, but I just can't accept unfair treatment."
“.”
After Yu Lichen finished speaking, he looked at Mu Yuning and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Mu Yuning also looked at Yu Lichen coldly, as if waiting for something.
After a long while, Yu Lichen finally couldn't help but said, "Actually, I was just being deliberately made difficult by someone. As long as someone says something, this matter won't be a big deal at all."
Mu Yuning said indifferently: "Who do you want to say something for you? My uncle?"
Yu Lichen opened his mouth and said with a wry smile: "Yun Ning, I don't have to trouble your uncle. I just want us to have a better future. If you don't want to, I can endure all kinds of difficulties for you. I can endure it."
"No, you don't need to endure it for me, and you don't need to suffer any grievances for me, because I have nothing to do with you. I feel sick just by looking at you now!"
“.”
After Mu Yuning finished speaking to Yu Lichen, he turned and left.
But Yu Lichen quickly stood beside Mu Yuning.
"Yun Ning, you wronged me, you really wronged me, I really love you"
“Get out of the way!”
Mu Yuning shouted angrily and turned back, but Yu Lichen ran to her again, opened his arms and hugged Teacher Mu like an eagle catching a chick.
Li Ye frowned, feeling that he should take action.
But how can we stop Yu Lichen from behaving like a hooligan without embarrassing Teacher Mu?
Li Ye quickly squatted down and started to scratch on the ground. In a few strokes, he made a solid snowball. Wen Leyu followed suit and also squatted down and started to pick up the snow with his little butt sticking out.
“Swoosh~”
Li Ye's aim was quite good. The snowball drew an arc and hit Yu Lichen right on the back of the head.
"Who? Who's there? Come out!"
Just when Yu Lichen was furious, he was hit hard on the back of his head. He immediately shouted angrily at the dark woods.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Wen Leyu's snowball arrived.
“Swoosh~”
“Ding~”
Wen Leyu's aim was a little off and the bullet brushed past Yu Lichen's shoulder and hit the lamppost next to him, making a "metallic sound".
The lamppost is made of metal, and there is a stone inside the snowball. Wouldn't it be the sound of metal and stone after they collide?
