Chapter 53 Chen Xingjie

Leng Yunting gently pinched Liu Jingyi's nose and said affectionately, "Mmm, delicious."

Liu Jingyi received a satisfactory reply, and two blushes appeared on her face. She suddenly looked up and gently kissed Leng Yunting's cheek.

"Leng Yunting, you're so kind!"

Liu Jingyi said softly, then turned and ran away.

She went to get some rice, trying to hide her pounding heart.

Leng Yunting stood there, stunned, touching the cheek that Liu Jingyi had kissed, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Although Leng Yunting disagreed, she continued embroidering, after all, it was bad for her eyes.

But it's not bad to make her this happy and proactive sometimes.

After dinner.

Liu Jingyi, holding a math book that was making her drowsy, sighed and complained to Leng Yunting with a pained expression.
Why is this so difficult?

"I feel like my brain is about to explode?"

She rubbed her temples, looking like she was about to faint, just like a listless little kitten.

Of course, this was just Liu Jingyi pretending, since the original owner's academic performance was mediocre.

Leng Yunting looked at her exaggerated expression, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.

He put down the newspaper, reached out and gently brushed the stray hairs from her forehead, his voice as gentle as a spring breeze in March.
"That's difficult. Who was it that confidently said she could do it?"

Liu Jingyi slumped back onto the table, looking dejected, and said innocently,
"Who said that? Who's so arrogant?"

Leng Yunting shook his head helplessly, "Where don't you understand? I'll teach you!"

Liu Jingyi immediately raised her head, her eyes sparkling like stars in the night sky.

She immediately nodded obediently, a sweet smile spreading across her face, just like a child who had eaten candy.

"Really?"

"Ok!"

Liu Jingyi immediately picked up her book and sat down next to Leng Yunting properly, like a student.

Leng Yunting opened the book, pointed to the formulas, and patiently explained them to her.

At this moment, Liu Jingyi listened with exceptional focus, as if she knew absolutely nothing about the subject.

They would also ask questions from time to time, and Leng Yunting would answer them patiently.

Leng Yunting's voice was deep and magnetic, like a soothing song, echoing in Liu Jingyi's ears.

"Do you understand?" Leng Yunting asked.

Liu Jingyi bit the pen, her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

"I think... I understand now..."

Looking at her troubled expression, Leng Yunting smiled indulgently.

He reached out and gently ruffled her hair. "I'm going to take a shower. Ask me if you don't understand anything later."

"Ok!"

Liu Jingyi nodded vigorously.

Late at night.

The chirping of crickets outside the window rose and fell, while a lazy atmosphere permeated the room.

Liu Jingyi lay on the table, her eyelids growing heavier and heavier until finally, unable to resist the drowsiness, she fell into a deep sleep.

When Leng Yunting came out of the shower, he looked at her peaceful sleeping face with a gentle gaze that seemed to melt everything.

He gently picked her up and placed her on the bed. In his drowsy state, he felt a burning heat on his neck.

Immediately following was their intertwined fingers, and before he could even speak, Leng Yunting's kiss silenced him.

Liu Jingyi's voice, which sounded like she was about to cry, came from her throat.

The next day, when Liu Jingyi woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

She stretched, feeling weak and sore all over, her head spinning. Remembering what happened last night, a blush crept onto Liu Jingyi's face.

Since she didn't have to go to work, Liu Jingyi wasn't in a hurry.

Liu Jingyi got up, washed up leisurely, and ate the breakfast that Leng Yunting had prepared.

As Liu Jingyi ate, she thought to herself, "It's so nice to live like a freeloader!"

She doesn't plan to embroider today, since her eyes get tired after embroidering for a long time.

In her past life, she wore glasses, and she doesn't want to repeat that mistake and ruin her appearance now.

Liu Jingyi plans to rearrange the study, since it was previously used by Leng Yunting and was too monotonous.

She wrote down what she wanted to buy and went to the state-run department store.

The tablecloth, the vase...

Liu Jingyi had just finished shopping and walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Yiyi!"

A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from behind.

It's Chen Xingjie!

Liu Jingyi stood there, stunned. She couldn't understand why he was there.

In the original book, there was a boy who was mentioned only briefly, but secretly had feelings for Liu Jingyi.

But didn't he go abroad?
After learning that Liu Jingyi was married, Chen Xingjie went abroad, and Liu Jingyi really didn't know what happened to him after that.

It wasn't mentioned at all in the book.

For a moment, Liu Jingyi was filled with surprise and doubt.

Chen Xingjie looked very refreshed in his clean white shirt.

He has a different kind of handsomeness than Leng Yunting; he is very good-looking and gives people the feeling of the older brother next door.

Chen Xingjie, carrying a bag in his hand and with a gentle smile on his face, walked towards her step by step.

Liu Jingyi actually knew nothing about Chen Xingjie.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Chen Xingjie's voice was gentle and warm, like a clear spring flowing into Liu Jingyi's heart.

Liu Jingyi opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

After all, she didn't think she was that close to him.

She felt her heart pounding so hard, like a drumbeat, that it made her eardrums buzz.

While Liu Jingyi was still in a daze, Chen Xingjie had already walked up to her.

"What? You don't recognize me anymore now that Yiyi is married?" Chen Xingjie said with a smile.

Liu Jingyi unconsciously took a step back and shook her head. "No, Xingjie, why are you back?"

Chen Xingjie said with a smile, "Something came up at home, so I came back. I remembered you said you liked reading, so I brought a lot of books that you could read and delivered them to you."

Liu Jingyi thought back for a moment, and it seemed that there was no such thing in the original owner's memories!
Liu Jingyi has recently become much closer to Leng Yunting, so she should probably avoid any potential suspicions.
Otherwise, if that jealous Leng Yunting found out, he'd skin her alive.

"Brother Xingjie, no need, I don't think I'm cut out for it."

Chen Xingjie's smile froze for a moment. He looked at Liu Jingyi in front of him with a complex and unfathomable gaze, like a bottomless lake that was hard to fathom.

"Is that so..."

Chen Xingjie murmured softly, his tone tinged with an indescribable bitterness.

An awkward atmosphere hung in the air, like solidified glue, so sticky it was almost suffocating.

Liu Jingyi inexplicably felt a little short of breath, as if a heavy stone was pressing on her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.

Liu Jingyi was unaware that she would have this feeling.

Could it be the lingering feelings of the original owner? But that shouldn't be the case!
Didn't the original owner like Meng Yunfan?
