Chapter 106: First Time Being Apart (2)
It had been two years since then, but Li Qingcang’s eyes had become so warm. His eyes were like a sunny spring breeze, and they made a person feel very comfortable.
When she had seen Li Qingcang in the supermarket earlier, he had been looking down, picking out a bag of dried mangos.
His eyes were so gentle. They were like miniature suns, shining with warm light.
At that moment, her eyes filled with tears.
She finally understood!
It wasn’t that Li Qingcang was cold or that he kept to himself. It was because she wasn’t the sun that could melt him.
“But you seem to have changed a lot. Your hair is shorter, and you seem a lot different!”
Yu Qinghuan’s gaze landed on Ye Tianxin. She asked softly, “Is this your younger sister? She’s so pretty!”
Li Qingcang made a sound of agreement. Then, he said, “Is there anything else? If not, we’ll leave first!”
Yu Qinghuan replied in a friendly manner, saying, “Alright, you all head off first! I’m still waiting for someone!”
Li Qingcang and Ye Tianxin had only made it about ten meters before Yu Qinghuan ran after them and said, “Li Qingcang, let’s add each other on QQ. We’re all in the capital, and we can meet up for dinner or something.”
“I don’t have time,” Li Qingcang refused, then continued walking off with Ye Tianxin.
After crossing a junction, Ye Tianxin turned around slightly and saw that Yu Qinghuan was still standing where they had left her.
“Elder Brother Li, do you really not remember that beautiful elder sister?”
Li Qingcang asked, “Is she beautiful? I didn’t notice!”
“...”
Ye Tianxin felt a twinge of pain in her heart. She pitied the beautiful elder sister called Yu Qinghuan.
Yu Qinghuan hadn’t bothered to hide how much she liked Li Qingcang, but he didn’t notice at all...
“I think she’s quite pretty! She seems to like you...”
Li Qingcang stood inside the elevator, looking at Ye Tianxin’s face. Her face was very youthful and lively.
At that moment, he thought that Ye Tianxin was beautiful.
She didn’t have any makeup on, and yet, she had a face that could launch a thousand ships.
This thought filled Li Qingcang’s head, and his face suddenly grew bright red.
“Then she must have really bad taste.”
She could have liked anyone.
So why did she like him?
Wasn’t that a sign of bad taste?
“Why is that so?” Ye Tainxin asked curiously. Wasn’t being liked by someone something to be happy about? Why did Elder Brother Li say that Yu Qinghuan had bad taste?
“I don’t have extra time to spend on relationships.”
Ye Tianxin replied seriously, “Elder Brother Li, liking someone is a very happy thing!”
“You’re right,” Li Qingcang said. Then, he fell silent and didn’t say anything else.
Ye Tianxin stole a glance at Li Qingcang’s side profile. His nose was long, and his eyes were deep. His perfect features were god-like. Even though his hair was short, he didn’t look severe. Instead, he looked clean and neat. He was cold and silent, like snowy mountains in the distance... No, he was like a snow lotus that had blossomed on the peak of one of those snowy mountains. He was beautiful.
“You two are back.”
Grandmother had just finished getting her blood pressure taken when the two entered her room. The nurse was packing up and preparing to leave.
Ye Tianxin took out the bag of fruit candy and fed an orange-flavored candy to her grandmother. “Grandmother, is it sweet?” she asked, her smile reaching her eyes.
“It’s sweet!” Grandmother replied. “Tianxin, I changed into a new set of clothes. Help me wash my other set!”
“Alright.” Ye Tianxin turned around and went to the bathroom.
Grandmother gestured for Li Qingcang to sit down. Then, she said, “Qingcang, you’re from the capital, aren’t you? In the future, when Tianxin goes to the capital to go to college, please help me take care of her! This granddaughter of mine is kind and beautiful. I’m worried that some people might try to take advantage of her, and she won’t know how to protect herself...”
