Chapter 504: Leng Yanli Extra 3
Leng Yanli raised his head in a panic, but happened to catch a glimpse of the girl's face that was as delicate as a piece of jade.
He saw the tips of the girl's ears suddenly turn rouge, even more gorgeous than the rouge flowers growing by the pond, and even her neck was stained with a thin layer of red.
She lowered her head, her long eyelashes trembled like frightened butterfly wings, and the knuckles of her fingers gripping the mallet turned white.
Is it nervousness...? Or shyness...?
Leng Yanli, whose face was also red, squatted silently in the water.
......
In the following days, Leng Yanli, who had always trained regularly, seemed to be more strict with himself under such conditions.
Every afternoon at three o'clock, he would appear by the pond as if set to clock.
With swift movements, he placed the towel on the willow tree closest to the bluestone slab, then seemed to casually glance at the girl by the pond and jumped into the water.
Teammates often lay on the shore, watching Leng Yanli swimming in the water, and couldn't help but joke: "Brother Leng, you are so punctual every day, is there a mermaid hiding at the bottom of the pool? Otherwise, why would you be punching in and out like you're going to work!"
Faced with the teasing of his teammates, Leng Yanli never refuted.
He just silently paddled his arms in the water, calculating the angle of each turn with exceptional precision.
Thirty degrees, no more, no less.
This angle allowed him to catch a glimpse of the figure squatting on the bluestone slab through the refraction of the water waves every time he took a breath.
However, as time went by, Leng Yanli gradually discovered that Ning Qingwu seemed to always have endless things to do.
Either they were beating mountains of clothes, or they were squatting by the pond washing wild vegetables they had just picked.
Even if she occasionally raised her head, her gaze only quickly swept across the water surface, never lingering on Leng Yanli for even a moment.
Leng Yanli posed for many days, but the heroine didn't even look at him, which made him feel a little aggrieved.
Moreover, he calmly stroked the girl's hand, which became even whiter after being soaked in clear water.
Such beautiful hands should not be used for any work.
She should...
Leng Yanli lowered his eyes and twirled his fingers subconsciously.
I want to hold something.
He wanted to know if that jade-white color was as soft as he thought.
So later on, Leng Yanli would arrive at the pond half an hour earlier than Qingwu every day.
When Qingwu arrived at the edge of the pond, before she had time to pick up the wooden hammer, Leng Yanli snatched the blue cloth shirt from her hand. His movements were a little clumsy, but he began to beat the hammer very seriously.
At first, the strength of the young master Leng Yanli, who had never done any work before, seemed a little difficult to control.
The beating was sometimes light, sometimes heavy, causing the originally smooth cloth shirt to become wrinkled.
Seeing this, Qing Wu couldn't help but remind her softly: "Be gentle here, otherwise the shirt will be worn out."
Leng Yanli, who had been going smoothly for the past, felt at a loss for the first time, feeling awkward and uneasy, worried that Qingwu would dislike him because of his clumsiness.
He was a little annoyed, because he was obviously not like that...
He is very skillful with his hands.
Even if the mind is simple, the limbs are definitely well-developed.
But the beautiful girl didn't think much about it. Seeing that Leng Yanli really couldn't learn it, she moved closer.
Leng Yanli immediately stopped what he was doing, his eyes fell on her, and watched her stretch out her hand to demonstrate.
Their fingertips accidentally touched each other, and the next second, both of them retracted their hands at the same time as if they had been electrocuted.
