Chapter 1706: The Persistent Fellow

~7 min read 1,321 words

"Yeah, my sister wouldn't let us go see her; she said she wanted to become a strong person. And then..."

Li Moning smiled and said with relief, "You've seen it too; she has indeed become very strong, and she is extremely outstanding."

Xie Wanyi knew of Jiang Motian's excellence.

It was just that he never imagined it would have been exchanged for in such a way...

Thinking back to when he first met Jiang Motian, he had even thought she was just an ordinary, delicate young lady of high status.

Thinking back on the past now...

Xie Wanyi wanted to curse himself!

While Xie Wanyi was secretly blaming himself, his brow also furrowed.

Now, not only was his chest feeling tight, but his head was also aching!

He raised his hand and pressed hard against the space between his eyebrows.

Seeing this, Li Moning asked, "What's wrong with you? You look like you're very uncomfortable."

Xie Wanyi was indeed uncomfortable.

Whenever his emotions fluctuated violently, his head would ache.

This was an old ailment; it would ache every now and then.

But in recent years, the frequency of the pain had become less and less.

At this moment, it was precisely because his heart ached for Jiang Motian that his old ailment was triggered.

Yet, Xie Wanyi did not want to explain the reason for his headache in front of a young girl, so he smiled as if nothing were wrong.

Afterwards, he subtly changed the subject: "I'm fine, but I'm curious, don't your parents worry about your sister?"

"They do, my mom even cries in secret. But they respect my sister's choices and believe she will pull through."

Her parents' support was also the backing that allowed Jiang Motian to become strong.

But not all parents could have such courage.

From this perspective, Jiang Motian was very lucky.

Xie Wanyi also remarked with emotion: "They really are very outstanding parents."

"Of course, our mom and

dad are the best in the world!"

After Li Moning finished speaking, she looked at Xie Wanyi curiously again: "I haven't heard you mention your parents."

"... By the time I had memories, I had already been saved by the Hall Master. As for my parents... I have no impression."

"You had memories?"

"Yes, I had an accident when I was a child, and I don't remember some things very well."

"No, your experience, how is it so similar to Xiaoshi's?"

These words made Xie Wanyi freeze.

But Li Moning was merely remarking on it simply and hadn't thought much of it.

The next second, she said wistfully: "I used to think that Xiaoshi was lying, how could childhood memories just disappear like that? But after hearing your experience, I feel that I was narrow-minded."

Li Moning was quite good at self-reflection.

Xie Wanyi also snapped out of his daze and said: "So, because your sister has experienced loss, she cherishes her friends even more."

"That's right, especially since Xiaoshi did my sister a favor; she naturally treats him differently."

"What kind of favor?"

"My sister was controlled by a sinister bastard back then, and the other party used that to threaten my parents. Because of Xiaoshi's protection, my sister was able to turn danger into safety."

As Li Moning spoke, images flashed through Xie Wanyi's mind!

Those images were very unfamiliar, yet very familiar.

Xie Wanyi wanted to hold onto those images.

But the harder he tried, the more his head ached!

This pain was more intense than ever before, and it came very strangely!

Xie Wanyi clutched his head in agony, wishing he could squeeze that pain out of his brain!

Li Moning was frightened by him and hurriedly said: "Your condition isn't right. How about I take you to the Hospital?"

Xie Wanyi closed his eyes, his voice hoarse: "I'm fine, it's just a sudden headache."

"Who would ache

like this if they were normal? You should go get it checked!"

Xie Wanyi shook his head, then took a deep breath and looked up at Li Moning again.

In just this short while, Xie Wanyi had already recovered.

He even said calmly: "See, I'm fine now."

Xie Wanyi had experienced inhuman training.

He naturally had ways to hide his true feelings and emotions.

But doing so was not without its flaws...

Li Moning looked at his pale lips and muttered: "I'm not joking with you. If you have an illness, you absolutely must not drag it out."

"Hmm, the way you nag is actually quite like your sister."

Li Moning had originally been concerned about Xie Wanyi.

But after hearing this, she immediately became irritable: "You dare call my sister a nag!? Watch out, or I'll tell her!"

"Better not," Xie Wanyi said, then added, "And don't tell her about my headache either."

"Why can't I tell her?"

"I'm afraid she'll worry."

Li Moning's lips moved, and she wanted to say that he was thinking quite wishfully.

However...

If he really said it, Jiang Motian would definitely worry.

Li Moning thought for a moment, then finally huffed: "In any case, the body is your own; if you don't take it seriously, there's nothing others can do."

"Stop nagging, kid. I care about my own body more than anyone else."

"You guy, I'm concerned about you and you still complain that I'm nagging... Hmph!"

Li Moning rolled her eyes, picked up the milk tea again, and took a forceful sip.

Afterward, she secretly grumbled: "Playing mind games all day, maybe it's a headache from overusing your brain; I bet the next step will be hair loss!"

Hair loss...

Li Moning thought of something and glanced at Xie Wanyi.

With a face like that...

Hmm...

It wouldn't be able to withstand

going bald!

Li Moning let out a "pfft" of laughter.

The gloom in her chest also vanished quite a bit due to her mischievous fantasy.

Although Li Moning didn't say anything, Xie Wanyi saw something in her teasing gaze.

Xie Wanyi was somewhat helpless and said: "If the hair loss is severe, I'll just shave my head."

"Mm, a shaved head is better than a monk's tonsure, but then you'd just turn into a braised egg! Hahaha—"

Li Moning amused herself, and she laughed until she was out of breath.

Xie Wanyi looked at Li Moning speechlessly, thinking to himself: Are young girls these days... this erratic in their thinking?

He shook his head gently.

He felt he couldn't quite understand it.

And Li Xingyan, who was passing by outside the milk tea shop, couldn't understand it either.

He had originally been sitting in the car, passing by this area.

But after catching a glimpse of the two people sitting by the window...

He immediately had the driver reverse the car back.

Li Xingyan sat in the car, staring unblinkingly into the milk tea shop.

That girl Li Moning said she was meeting a classmate for self-study when she left this morning.

Yet she ended up meeting with Xie Wanyi?!

And she was laughing so happily!!

This Xie Wanyi is also something else; must he keep entangling himself with the girls of the Li Family!

It's simply like a lingering ghost!!

The more Li Xingyan thought about it, the angrier he became, even wanting to push open the car door and go down right now to settle the score with Xie Wanyi!

But the moment he opened the car door, the two people inside stood up, preparing to leave.

Worried about being discovered by them, Li Xingyan immediately told the driver to pull forward a bit.

Once Li Moning and Xie Wanyi parted ways, Li Xingyan then stepped out of the car with a gloomy expression.

At this moment, Li Moning still did not know that she had been targeted.

She was holding a novel, heading excitedly toward

the way back.

But after walking for only a short while, a figure blocked her path.
