Fast Passage

On the other side, Li Yu was happily gnawing on a rabbit leg when he suddenly felt a chill on his back and sneezed.

Li Yu rubbed his nose and said to Chen Qingli opposite him, whose mouth was full of oil.

“I always feel like someone is watching me.”

Chen Qingli didn't understand and blinked innocently.

Li Yu and Chen Qingli have had good meals recently.

Because Li Yu had space, he would go to the mountains whenever he had nothing to do.

It was discovered that perhaps because there were wild animals in the mountains, few people dared to go into the mountains and only dared to pick up some firewood around.

The first time Li Yu returned, he found many pheasants and a nest of rabbits.

So, from time to time, I would get two and bring them back to improve Chen Qingli's food.

Chen Qingli swallowed the meat in his mouth and said to Li Yu.

"Li Yu, starting tomorrow, you will study with me."

"My family said that the college entrance examination will resume in two years. If I can get into a good university then, I won't have to work in the fields every day. My family—"

Li Yu covered her mouth with his hand, looked around, and when he saw no one was around, he whispered softly.

"Didn't your family remind you that you can't tell outsiders about this?"

Qingli blinked and said seriously.

"But you are not an outsider, and you certainly won't say anything nonsense."

Li Yu rubbed her hair fiercely with his hands and said viciously.

"How do you know I'm not a bad person?"

Qingli shook her head and said with a pout.

"Anyway, you're not a bad person, and I'm not stupid, so I won't say anything nonsense. By the way, you haven't told me whether you want me to teach you or not."

Li Yu rubbed his brows and said to Qingli, who seemed like she could be fooled by a piece of candy.

"Just you, teach me?"

Qingli stood up and said angrily with her hands on her hips.

"Why? You don't believe I can teach you well? Let me tell you, I was a very good student in high school, so I'm more than capable of teaching you."

Li Yu didn't even raise his eyelids. He finished eating the rabbit leg, patted the dust off his body and said.

"Oh, that's amazing. Study hard on your own. I'm not interested in the college entrance exam."

Qingli walked up to him, grabbed his sleeve, and asked with some confusion.

"That's the college entrance exam, huh?"

"So what? It's too much trouble."

After he finished cleaning up, he walked towards his small adobe house.

A few more ordinary days passed, and every day Li Yu went to help the "little rabbit" and cook.

But in the past two days, for some reason, Li Yu always felt that the "little rabbit" was avoiding him.

After dinner every day, he stays in his room and doesn't go out.

That day, Li Yu caught the "little rabbit" that was trying to run away.

He grabbed the back of her collar and asked in confusion.

"I just refused to learn from you. Is it necessary to avoid me like this?"

Qingli shrank her head and blushed as she spoke.

"I, I'm not hiding from you."

Li Yu tapped her little head.

"Then why are you running? Tell me what happened."

"Because, because." The little girl's face became redder and redder, almost as red as a big apple.

"Because everyone in the village said you were very nice to me, that you were lazy before, and that you're so nice to me now because you want to be with me."

"But I haven't figured out whether I want to be with you."

Li Yu looked at Qingli, who had a baby face, and then looked in front of her.

"That's why you're hiding from me. I'm not that beastly of you, a kid with no breasts or buttocks, whose chest is flatter than your back."

Upon hearing this, Qingli's expression changed immediately. He stomped hard on Li Yu's instep, causing Li Yu to gasp in pain.

"Who are you calling flat? What's that look in your eyes? Besides, I'm an adult, not a kid. Humph." Qingli turned and left.

Li Yu actually knew a little about the rumors in the village, but he didn't think it was a big deal. The little girl would definitely leave when the time came.

Others would think that the girl was dating him, and then no one would come up to her and show their affection, thus affecting her review.

After that, the little girl no longer hid from Li Yu.

When the little girl was reviewing while drinking a drink under the tree, she would occasionally look up at Li Yu who was sweating in the fields.

Li Yu always felt that there was something wrong with the little girl's eyes. How to put it, it was a look of heartache and disappointment.
