The irrelevant and incoherent answer confused Yong Zhixu. If he wanted to eat it, why didn't he pick it himself?
But soon, he realized that Chen Zui was creating opportunities for him to get close to Tang Xili.
In fact, he did some homework before coming.
Knowing that she liked to eat lychees, he brought her to Lingnan under the name of Chen Zui.
Chen Zui said that girls all like jewelry, bags, and beautiful dresses, and asked him to be simple and rough and buy a lot.
However, Zhou Zhou said that Tangxi Li was rich and had mines, so he was not interested in those mundane things at all.
You have to take an unconventional approach...
Seeing that he didn't move, Chen Zui yelled again: "Third brother, my legs hurt. Can you help me pick the lychees from Xiao A Li's tree..."
His urging brought Yong Zhixu back to his senses. He knew that the opportunity could not be missed.
After taking a deep breath, he plucked up his courage, took the basket from Chen Zui's hand, and took the first step towards the girl he liked.
Tangxi Pear on the tree was holding a bunch of lychees and eating them contentedly.
She heard Chen Zui mention her from afar and tilted her head to look at him.
She saw a handsome man in a casual suit walking towards her.
A pure white loose drapey short-sleeved shirt, paired with a pair of minimalist and light black trousers and white sneakers, looks clean, simple and fashionable.
The short hair parted on the side is fluffy and refreshing, and the shirt collar is open, revealing a clearly defined collarbone and a protruding Adam's apple, giving off a sense of tension like the male protagonist in a Korean drama.
The moist black Buddhist beads were wrapped around his delicate wrist bones, making his cold white skin look translucent. In his other slender hand, he held a bamboo basket.
He has a good demeanor, an upright posture, a graceful gait, and every move he makes is particularly pleasing to the eye.
As he approached, the surrounding scenery paled in comparison.
(The clothes are good, high-end and textured.)
After taking a quick look, Tang Xili wanted to look away, but as her eyes moved, they met the man's.
One was sitting on a tree with his eyes downcast, and the other was standing under the tree looking up, about three or four meters apart.
Their eyes met, and the man's thin pink lips curved up and smiled modestly at her.
Just like the sunshine in late spring in March, warm and gentle, Tang Xili hesitated for a moment, then perfunctorily raised the corners of her mouth and smiled back.
The faint trace of smile only appears on the surface and does not reach the eyes, which makes her look cold and distant.
This was considered a greeting, and Tang Xili withdrew her gaze and continued to peel and eat lychees.
I had just put the lychee in my mouth when I heard the man under the tree ask politely, "Miss Tangxi, can I pick lychees from your tree?"
Tang Xili had no intention of talking to him, and there was no communication at all during the entire flight.
Being spoken to like this suddenly surprised her, and she stopped eating the lychee, with half of the lychee stuck in her cheek.
The distinct black and white eyes are as bright as stars, and with a frozen expression, it looks like a rabbit that has been interrupted while eating, soft and cute.
Yong Zhixu looked up at her, his black pupils shining brightly, reflecting her beautiful eyebrows and eyes.
As they looked at each other, it felt like there was a pair of furry little claws in his chest, gently scratching the tip of his heart, and then rolling around in the softest part, making him feel itchy and filled with indescribable emotions.
"May I?" He spoke again, his voice very sweet, a low, immersive tone, with a hint of request, flowing gently like a mountain spring through the garden where the breeze was blowing.
Tangxi Pear nodded, quickened her chewing motions, swallowed the sweet flesh, and spit out the core before speaking, "Okay."
The tree wasn't hers, so she had no reason to say no.
Because she spoke in a hurry, her expression had a kind of cuteness that was inadvertently revealed, which was very touching. Yong Zhixu felt as if his heart was gently scratched by the little claws again.
He put the Buddhist beads into his trouser pocket, grabbed the tree trunk that was within reach, stepped on the branches and climbed up.
He moved very swiftly and in a blink of an eye, he had climbed onto the branch opposite the Tangxi Pear.
Seeing him coming up, Tang Xili glanced at the bamboo basket placed on the Y-shaped branch below. The basket was full of lychees she had just picked.
In fact, she had already picked it. If she hadn't made that phone call, she would have gone downstairs long ago.
Since someone wanted to pick fruits from this tree, she would go down and make room.
Just as he was about to get up and go down, Zhou Zhou appeared from somewhere and came under the tree holding an empty bamboo basket.
"A-Li, I just went to make a voice call and didn't pick any. Can you help me pick a basket? Hehe..."
Tang Xili paused her hand that was about to exert force to support the tree trunk and looked at Zhou Zhou, who had a beaming face.
This young lady fell in love online a few days ago. The other party is a boy with a very sweet voice. They have several voice messages every day to express their affection.
I reminded her that men with nice voices usually have unattractive looks.
But the young lady was obsessed with love and refused to listen, so we could only let her do as she pleased.
After Zhou Zhou handed over the basket, he took down the basket of lychees that Tangxi Li had picked.
As if he had just seen Yong Zhixu, he exclaimed, "Third brother is also on this tree?"
Without waiting for Yong Zhixu to answer, she turned around and instructed Tang Xili, "Ali, Third Brother has been weak and sickly since he was a child. He has rarely climbed trees. Please keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't fall."
As soon as the words came out, three question marks appeared above the heads of the two people in the tree at the same time.
You've never climbed a tree before? Who was that guy who just climbed up the tree so easily?
Frail and sickly? Tang Xili glanced at the tall, broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted man across from her and fell into deep thought.
Facing her questioning gaze, Yong Zhixu fell silent.
His physique doesn't seem to be weak or sickly at all. Zhou Zhou's sword technique is quite unconventional.
Looking at Zhou Zhou and winking at him, Yong Zhixu's dark eyes flashed with struggle.
Okay, I’ll listen to the military advisor.
Afterwards, the dignified and elegant man seemed to change his expression. He covered his heart with one hand, put his fist to his lips with the other hand, and coughed lightly, appearing weak and vulnerable.
"Miss Tangxi, please take care of me."
Tang Xili: "..."
Although I don't understand what's going on with him, but... just respect him.
When Zhou Zhou saw that his third brother was so understanding, he winked at him and made a cheering gesture in a fair and open manner.
Such a blatant action made Yong Zhixu, who was doing such a thing for the first time, feel guilty and panicked.
He stared at Zhou Zhou intently, his eyes seeming to say: You're too obvious.
Zhou Zhou smiled and thought to himself: Third brother, you are really worrying too much.
Ali has emotional problems. If you approach her, she won't doubt that you like her. She will only think that you are after her property or her life.
Chasing Ah Li is harder than Tang Monk's journey to the West...
In order to create an opportunity for Yong Zhixu, Zhou Zhou took Chen Zui away with him when he left.
The surroundings became quiet, with only the sound of wind blowing through the leaves and cicadas chirping.
Yong Zhixu coughed and said shyly, "Miss Tangxi, let's pick lychees——"
