El mundo de las artes marciales es un pozo

Capítulo 57

He gently embraced her: "I misspoke."

Yang Nianqing was momentarily stunned by this sudden action.

Nestled in his warm embrace, inhaling his peculiar scent, she finally realized what was happening. She angrily pushed him away, letting out a cold snort: "If you fall here, you're doomed. You'll either be poisoned or attacked. And you keep making fun of me every day. What do you take me for, someone you can just play with?"

He gave a wry smile: "How could I dare?"

"What are you afraid of? You're number one in lightness skill and hidden weapons, and I can't beat you anyway. You can bully whoever you want..."

"In that case, I'll let you beat me up to vent your anger, how about that?"

Yang Nianqing immediately rolled her eyes: "Stop using the self-inflicted injury trick!"

"no."

Step forward: "You did this on purpose!"

He stepped back: "I did it on purpose."

Step forward: "You've gone too far!"

He stepped back: "I went too far."

Step forward: "You bastard!"

He backed away, saying, "I'm an idiot."

"You..." I can't find the words.

Yang Nianqing stared at him helplessly and amusedly, finally understanding the benefits of a man's thick skin. Even if she wanted to yell at him, she couldn't bring herself to do it anymore.

She raised her chin: "You're really shameless!"

Li You smiled wryly: "If I don't have a thick skin, I'll only be more unlucky after I've done something wrong."

She suppressed a laugh: "It's good that you know."

With a flutter of her long eyelashes, Li You scrutinized her for a moment, then shook his head: "She wasn't pretty to begin with, and with her eyes red from crying, she looks even worse."

Long, slender fingers gently stroked her hair, brushing aside a few stray strands and wiping away any remaining tear stains. Although the movements were very light, Yang Nianqing could still feel the warmth emanating from her fingers.

Her cold cheeks suddenly felt hot.

She turned her head away and muttered, "No need to pretend to be a good person."

Li You's lips curled into a smile: "What do you want with me?"

When the topic turned to business, Yang Nianqing immediately said, "I dreamt of Yun Biyue."

Li You was stunned for a moment, then immediately laughed and cried at the same time: "I say, Miss Yang, what you think about during the day, you dream about at night. Aren't you afraid of turning into an old woman by thinking so much?"

"No, this dream is different!" Seeing that he didn't believe her, Yang Nianqing became anxious and quickly told him about her two dreams, speaking with great enthusiasm.

Li You indeed looked surprised.

She said proudly, "Isn't it amazing? Tell me, how many people can make their dreams like this?"

Li You looked at her, seemingly lost in thought.

After thinking for a moment, Yang Nianqing shook her head again: "That time at Duanqing Manor, I was so scared that I screamed and woke you all up. I never thought I would actually finish it this time. It's unbelievable!"

Half a day.

She tugged at Li You's sleeve: "Do you think this dream can be believed?"

“A dream is just a dream, and it’s always hard to find any evidence,” Li You said, his long eyebrows furrowing slightly. “Don’t think too much about it. I’ll discuss it with Lao He.”

After saying that, he was about to turn and leave, but then suddenly stopped: "You're sure that assassin from earlier wasn't young?"

Yang Nianqing thought about it.

"Although he was dressed entirely in black, his eyes were very cloudy and dark, definitely not those of a young man. Also, he coughed twice at the end, and his voice sounded very old."

Li You's eyes flashed: "Cough?"

"Yes, he seems a little short of breath, like he's sick," Yang Nianqing nodded affirmatively, then deliberately glared at him to change the subject, "I said, you did something wrong today, shouldn't you apologize?"

Li You smiled wryly: "Apologizing to Miss Yang would probably be too much trouble."

Yang Nianqing said irritably, "If you're afraid of trouble, then forget it."

"Speak."

"Could you come with me somewhere tomorrow night?"

"good."

"Then I'll come find you around four o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

"Four o'clock?"

"So... Shen Shi? Chen Shi? Never mind, don't go out tomorrow afternoon, just wait for me in your room."

...

I finally said it, I finally said it out loud, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, haha.

I said there would be a twist in Volume 4, but I'm afraid you'll end up hating Li You :)

Volume Three: Asking About Love - Li You's Lofty Ideals

"Is it all right?" As Yang Nianqing walked past the flowerbed in the morning, she overheard such a voice, as calm as still water.

"Brother Qiu?"

A figure in ochre hue stood leisurely in the flowerbed, serene and lonely, a faint hint of arrogance still lingering on his ordinary face. Although he spent his days tending to the flowers, his hands always appeared impeccably clean, without a trace of dirt.

In his hand, he was holding a half-withered flower branch.

He glanced at the broken branch in his hand and casually remarked, "All done?"

Yesterday, he refused to treat her illness because he was angry with Li You, but he still cared about her, didn't he? It seems that this Mr. Chrysanthemum, like He Bi, is not really a "god." When they talk about human feelings, they are more endearing than others.

Yang Nianqing nodded gratefully: "It's nothing serious now, thank you."

He then glanced at her and said, "It's good that you're alright."

Upon seeing him, Yang Nianqing immediately thought of the prescription and became excited: "Brother Qiu, do you know how amazing Brother Nangong is? He has a photographic memory! A photographic memory!"

There was no surprise as expected.

He just scoffed slightly and squatted down to continue with his own work.

Yang Nianqing was stunned for a moment, then said with annoyance, "I forgot you two are good friends. You already knew, didn't you?"

Qiu Bailu remained silent.

They just said he was cute, and now they're acting all unapproachable! Yang Nianqing pouted and was about to leave when she looked up and saw two people walking towards her.

A charming and lovely girl in red with arched eyebrows, and a young gentleman in fine clothes and a golden crown.

Although they were very close, Yang Nianqing could still clearly see that while that cute little face was full of enthusiastic admiration, the other handsome face only wore the usual smile, which was somewhat perfunctory.

"Brother Nangong, was the cake delicious yesterday?"

Nangong Xue frowned slightly, then smiled and said, "Thank you, but I have never liked these desserts. I am truly ashamed. You don't need to go to such trouble in the future."

dislike?

Yang Nianqing was already sighing for Miss Tang. Whenever there were exquisite pastries, Nangong Xue would always pick up one or two pieces. This was clearly an excuse to refuse!

Sure enough, Tang Kesi's face fell for a moment, then brightened up again: "It's okay, Brother Nangong doesn't like sweets, so I won't send you that next time."

Nangong Xue shook her head helplessly.

Faced with such an innocent and lively girl, no man would have the heart to directly refuse her.

Tang Kesi had already spotted Yang Nianqing and excitedly ran up to her, grabbing her arm: "Sister Yang!"

"Hello, Sisi." Yang Nianqing also pulled her with a fake smile, ostensibly greeting her, but her eyes were actually blinking at Nangong Xue, feigning regret.

Nangong Xue smiled slightly and immediately looked at Qiu Bailu, as if she had seen a savior again: "So Brother Qiu is here too. It just so happens that I have some important matters to attend to. I wonder if Brother Qiu is free?"

Old excuse!

Yang Nianqing chuckled inwardly, glancing at Tang Kesi beside her, whose face was already filled with disappointment and dejection. This adorable little sister is destined for heartbreak; how pitiful!

Surprisingly, the same excuse failed this time.

Qiu Bailu, surprisingly, had a sudden realization and began to understand romance. Without even looking up, she coldly replied, "I don't have time. I need to treat the flowers."

Finally, I'm no longer a third wheel!

Yang Nianqing suppressed a laugh and coughed, looking at Nangong Xue triumphantly—this great doctor is clearly not going to give you any face today, let's see how you get out of this!

Nangong Xue frowned and smiled bitterly, but the next moment, he did something that no one expected.

“Xiao Nian,” he suddenly took Yang Nianqing’s hand, “Didn’t Brother He say you had something to discuss with me this morning?”

Looking for...you?

Yang Nianqing's eyes almost popped out. She said, "Brother, are you sure you're not messing with me?"

Looking at Tang Kesi, who was standing next to her with a surprised expression, she instinctively wanted to speak up and defend herself, but when she saw the pleading look in Nangong Xue's eyes, she realized that the words were not quite on her lips.

I can't help but be soft-hearted when it comes to handsome guys!

Finally, Yang Nianqing sighed, swallowed the words that were already on the tip of her tongue, and said dejectedly, "Yes, I have something very important to tell you. Let's go talk first."

Before she could finish speaking, Nangong Xue had already pulled her away.

Inside the room.

"You've ruined my life!" Yang Nianqing angrily punched him, but considering the handsome guy's resistance, the punch was much weaker than the one she gave Li You.

Nangong Xue then smiled and released her hand: "Thank you."

Yang Nianqing sat down in a chair and said, "Brother Nangong, Sisi is so pretty and cute, what's wrong with her?"

Nangong Xue sat down with a smile: "You like it?"

“If I were a man, I would definitely like her,” Yang Nianqing looked him over, then suddenly realized, “But you’re so handsome, rich, and gentle, no wonder you have such high standards…”

Nangong Xue glared at her helplessly.

Yang Nianqing found it more and more interesting.
