Chapter 132 Li Xiao felt he had pretended well enough...
Do you believe in love at first sight?
Li Xiao believed it.
Although almost everyone around him told him that it was just a delusion caused by lust.
But Li Xiao still firmly believes that she truly fell in love with Yu Qingzhou at first sight.
After all, when he first met Yu Qingzhou, he was still a little kid who didn't have a full concept of beauty or ugliness.
When Li Xiao realized that she had already fallen in love with the other person, how could she possibly point out any flaws in that face?
Even the smallest, most insignificant scar seems incredibly sexy.
Because that is also an important part of what makes up Yu Qingzhou as a person. It is the part of his life that he was unable to participate in.
He didn't find the scars an eyesore at all.
Instead, he wanted to kiss the scar on Yu Qingzhou's forehead more than once.
It's as if you can use this to travel through the river of time and embrace the young Yu Qingzhou who only exists in your imagination.
Li Xiao only learned later that Yu Qingzhou was not as he thought.
Or rather, unlike most people around me, I wasn't born an ordinary person, grew up an ordinary person, and then got into my current university with outstanding grades that were a little less ordinary.
Yu Qingzhou's life only began after she turned ten.
Before that, there were almost no records about Yu Qingzhou.
All we know is that he was probably born in a remote southern village.
Although it is not exactly isolated from the world, it maintains a tradition of having very little interaction with the outside world.
Until a raging fire burned the entire village to the ground.
The cause of the fire is unclear, but it appears to have been an accident caused by improper sacrificial activities.
The already small village was almost wiped out overnight, except for a few survivors.
Yu Qingzhou was one of them.
At that time, the young child seemed to have suffered a great shock and remained silent about everything. He only clutched a piece of paper in his hand with a name and an address written on it.
Based on that address, investigators contacted Fancheng, thousands of miles away, and eventually reached Yu Qingzhou's possible family members.
An elderly couple who lost their youngest daughter more than ten years ago.
After DNA testing confirmed the child's kinship with the elderly couple, the child was taken back to Fancheng.
He had a new name and a new identity, and then, like any other child his age, he went to school and studied, which at first glance seemed no different.
In reality, Yu Qingzhou was not close to her family.
He attended boarding schools from elementary to high school graduation.
Except for winter vacation, I almost never go back to the home where my mother used to live.
It wasn't until the elderly couple passed away one after another that Yu Qingzhou finally had a place to stay permanently—the old house he lives in now.
Both its location and surrounding facilities are far from satisfactory.
However, perhaps it was thanks to this that Yu Qingzhou had the opportunity to be allocated this house, as a deduction for his child support and tuition fees before he turned eighteen.
From then on, he completely severed ties with the other relatives of the Yu family and became a truly isolated person.
Then, one day before the summer vacation of her freshman year, Yu Qingzhou accidentally saved Li Xiao, who was being targeted by human traffickers, on her way to her part-time job.
Whether he recalled the face of his mother, who had suffered a similar fate, in the instant he threw that powerful punch remains unknown.
But the force and speed of that punch far exceeded the trafficker's imagination.
Although Yu Qingzhou was just an ordinary student, both in appearance and in reality.
Li Xiao clearly remembers the sound of that fist hitting a human body, dull yet chilling.
The lewd man, who had been fierce and menacing just moments before, collapsed heavily to the ground before he could even utter a sound.
Yu Qingzhou simply walked over calmly, kicked the man who was slumped on the ground like a dead dog with her shoe, and after confirming that he was still alive, she tied him up tightly with the rope she had taken from his bag.
After doing all this, Yu Qingzhou took out a tissue, dampened it, and wiped the back of her hand.
Then they found a nearby public phone booth and dialed the police.
"...Yes, near xx Road...a little boy, probably lost...a human trafficker? He's been caught, there's no danger."
When Yu Qingzhou spoke to the person on the other end of the phone about the lost little boy, she glanced out of the corner of her eye at Li Xiao, who was sitting on the ground staring blankly at everything, which made the latter shudder.
It was clearly just a fleeting glance, yet it seemed to carry an electric current, causing Li Xiao's heart to race and his scalp to tingle.
Then, he watched as the young man who had put down the phone walked towards him step by step.
With the same hand that had just beaten the thug, she gently pulled up the child whose legs were trembling. Finding that the child could not stand steadily, she simply picked him up.
And in a gentle tone, distinct from when she called the police, she said softly, "It's okay, it's all over now."
The young man's words seemed to possess a certain reassuring magic.
Upon hearing this, Li Xiao's body gradually relaxed.
However, his cheeks began to heat up uncontrollably until he had to bury his head in the other person's neck to cover his burning red cheeks, which were so hot they could fry an egg on them...
So if you ask Li Xiao whether he believes in love at first sight,
The answer is definitely yes.
Perhaps it was because of that harmless, gentle face, perhaps because of that punch that struck a vital spot, perhaps because of the warm and refreshing scent emanating from the other person's neck...
Maybe--
However, it was simply because it was Yu Qingzhou, and not anyone else.
To Li Xiao, Yu Qingzhou was a unique existence in this world.
Li Xiao firmly believes that the other person is a gift from heaven, an irreplaceable and unique individual.
Unfortunately, that seems to be just wishful thinking on his part.
Perhaps, as Ajiu said, you should accept that you have a popular friend and be proud and proud of it.
—And what about lovers?
What's wrong with having an overly popular lover?
Unfortunately, Li Xiao is not the kind of person with a broad mind; quite the opposite.
He was able to convince himself to tolerate those annoying guys coming and going as they pleased right under his nose, partly because he didn't want to anger Yu Qingzhou, but more practically because he was too young and at a real disadvantage.
Therefore, Li Xiao kept waiting.
He was waiting for the day when he grew up, and had the ability and confidence to tell Yu Qingzhou that he liked her.
Fortunately, over the years, the sycophants around Yu Qingzhou have come and gone. But none have been as persistent and tenacious as Li Xiao.
Fortunately, Yu Qingzhou doesn't seem to have much interest in romance.
With Li Xiao already fifteen years old, Yu Qingzhou is still all alone.
The problem is that Yu Qingzhou not only has no interest in others, but also treats Li Xiao the same way.
Having finally gotten a holiday to rest at home, I'd rather look at the flowers, the grass, and the loquat tree in the yard that doesn't bear fruit than give the latter a second glance.
Li Xiao didn't understand. Was it because he wasn't good-looking enough?
But he looked at himself from every angle, and couldn't find a single flaw in his face. There's no need to doubt his narcissism, because the good looks of his face are objective and have stood the test of time.
So, is it because I wasn't obedient enough?
Li Xiao felt she had acted well enough. She practically had "innocent and harmless" written all over her face.
Therefore, Li Xiao, with his handsome but not very bright little brain, came to an ultimate conclusion: either Yu Qingzhou was simply sexually frigid, or—
The other person already had someone else in their heart.
