Chapter 1912: Someone Has Been Caught Red-Handed
Li Xingyan grabbed Jiang Motian by the arm, preparing to kick her out of the room.
"Hey, let's talk this over properly. Brother, you're losing your gentlemanly demeanor like this!"
Jiang Motian leaned her body backward, hoping to stop Li Xingyan.
But in the midst of the tugging, the two of them still reached the doorway.
Then, Li Xingyan pulled the door open with one hand.
And in the moment he was completely caught off guard...
A figure stumbled and crashed inside!
Li Moning had been pressed against the door, eavesdropping.
She hadn't expected Li Xingyan to suddenly pull the door open.
It caused her to lose her balance, and she nearly fell to the floor.
Fortunately, Li Moning reacted quickly; she staggered for a moment, then steadied herself.
Patting her chest with her small hand, Li Moning calmed her emotions.
Afterward, she stared at Li Xingyan with an excited expression and blurted out, "Brother, you actually fell for..."
Sensing something was wrong, Li Xingyan quickly covered her mouth.
He glanced outside the door, confirmed no one was there, and hurriedly shut the door.
Only then did he let go of Li Moning and demand, "What are you doing here?"
"I... wanted to borrow a dictionary from you."
When Li Moning said this, she smiled with malicious intent.
It was clear she had heard the content of the conversation in the room!
This discovery left Li Xingyan looking like he had a headache.
Li Moning, however, smiled and said, "Brother, you've hidden this way too deep!"
"Shut up!"
Li Moning had no intention of shutting up; she had a belly full of things to say:
"Brother, when did you start feeling this way?"
"Are you planning to just enjoy the romance now, or are you aiming for marriage?"
"Has Yangyang fallen for you yet?"
"Probably not, you're too fierce!"
"Oh my, the way you're acting is like those bratty boys who deliberately pull a girl's hair accessories!"
This last sentence...
Earned Jiang Motian's full approval.
She even nodded slightly.
But thinking about it carefully, when Li Xingyan makes a move, he doesn't pull people's hair accessories.
Instead, he makes people so angry they cry!
In summary, he is just a piece of rotten wood.
And getting rotten wood to bloom is quite difficult.
Jiang Motian sighed silently.
Her sighing expression, as well as Li Moning's eager face, were both seen by Li Xingyan.
Originally, dealing with one Jiang Motian was already headache enough.
Now there was an extra Li Moning...
Li Xingyan's temples were throbbing wildly.
He raised a hand to press against his temples, hoping to ease the headache.
But after this gesture was seen by Li Moning... it took on a different meaning.
She even asked excitedly, "Brother, what's with that expression? Are you dizzy with happiness?"
"Enough!"
Li Xingyan truly did not want to endure any more of this.
He opened his mouth and ordered Li Moning, "Forget what you just heard, go back to your room right now!"
"I won't! Whatever you're talking about, you have to include me!"
"We've already finished talking, and your sister is going back too!"
On this point, Jiang Motian did not agree.
She corrected him, "Nope, I don't plan on going back, because I haven't taught you how to use that Love Manual yet."
"Love Manual?" Li Moning exclaimed, "There's actually a book like that!"
Thinking about how the person beside her was still a student, Jiang Motian gave a light cough and hurriedly said, "You're just a kid, don't get involved."
"So what if I'm young? Let me tell you, I have plenty of experience!"
Li Moning puffed out her chest, looking very proud.
Jiang Motian curled her lip and said, "Experience from novels doesn't count."
"What novel experience? I'm talking about real life, okay?"
Real life...
That wouldn't be...
Li Xingyan's brow furrowed instantly: "Li Moning, you're dating early!"
Seeing that he had misunderstood, Li Moning hurriedly explained, "It's not me dating early, it's me playing matchmaker for others—quite a few couples, actually!"
"That won't do either; you students must prioritize your studies!"
"Oh, someone is prioritizing their career, yet despite being quite old, they don't know how to pursue a girl."
This implication was far too obvious.
Li Xingyan narrowed his eyes and looked over.
Instantly, a wave of chill rolled onto Li Moning's face!
Li Moning did not dare to act presumptuously for even a second.
She even put on a smiling face and took the initiative to show goodwill: "Brother, do you really not want to hear my suggestion?"
"No, go back!"
"You... if you don't let me participate, I'll go tell Mom and Dad your secret!"
Li Moning was truly out of options, so she brought up Mom and Dad.
Li Xingyan did not want his secret to be known to the whole world, so he scolded: "No loose talk!"
"Whether I talk too much or not depends on Brother's performance; I advise you to think twice before you act."
Li Xingyan gave a light huff, thinking to himself that he had actually been threatened by his own younger sister!
But who told her to hold his weakness in her hands.
Li Xingyan had no choice but to think twice.
And the result of his thinking...
"Sit there quietly; if I don't let you speak, then don't speak!"
Seeing Li Xingyan change his mind, Li Moning hurriedly nodded like a pestle pounding garlic.
Then she sat on the sofa properly, looking well-behaved.
Since he couldn't shake off these two stubborn plasters, Li Xingyan simply continued chatting with Jiang Motian: "Besides reading more, what other use does that book have?"
"After you grasp how to say sweet nothings, you can use your own linguistic style to write sweet nothings for a girl."
"By the way, these sweet nothings must touch the heart, but they cannot be greasy. As for how to grasp this degree, you must experience it yourself."
Jiang Motian's summary was too profound.
Li Xingyan furrowed his brows and requested: "I want a precise description."
"For that, I'm sorry, it's not possible."
Li Xingyan frowned; one could tell from his expression that he was very dissatisfied with this answer.
Jiang Motian then said with patience: "Things like feelings cannot be deduced with formulas, so there is no way to describe them precisely."
"But... what if I perceive it wrongly?"
"Isn't there still me? You can discuss it with me before you act."
Discuss it with her?
Li Xingyan gave a light huff: "Then you would turn around and tell Xie Wanyi, and every word and action of mine would be under your control!"
He did not like that feeling at all.
Therefore, he would rather ponder it himself.
Jiang Motian sighed continuously upon hearing this.
Then she said: "Being too calculating won't help you win over a girl. Besides, our original intention is to offer you strategies; if you really want to have some fun, shall we go on a date?"
Jiang Motian's words were sincere and reasonable.
Li Xingyan could not refute them.
After a moment of silence, Li Xingyan requested somewhat awkwardly: "The things I've told you must absolutely not be known by a fourth person."
"That's for sure!"
Jiang Motian promised with a chuckle.
Li Moning moved her lips several times, and finally, she spoke: "Sister, do you really think Brother can learn how to say sweet nothings?"
These words, full of doubt, made Li Xingyan frown.
He looked at Li Moning, his tone carrying severity: "Didn't I tell you to keep quiet!"
"But I really couldn't help it! And don't you guys think you've walked into a misunderstanding?"
These words made Jiang Motian look over and ask: "What misunderstanding?"
