Chapter 1960: He Is Truly Tempting

Wei Yangyang noticed that Li Xingyan's gaze was very gentle, lacking its usual sharpness.

It was truly rare to see such a side of Li Xingyan.

Could it be that the high fever had burned away all that sharpness?

Wei Yangyang was letting her imagination run wild.

Seeing this, Li Xingyan asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Ah, drink some water."

Wei Yangyang snapped back to reality, but instead of answering the question, she brought the cup to Li Xingyan's lips.

Li Xingyan took two sips.

His dry, cracked lips were moistened.

And what was even more moistened than his lips was his heart.

Although this experience had been very dangerous, it had brought Li Xingyan an unexpected reward.

Looking at the person he loved before him, Li Xingyan's gaze was as gentle as water.

"By the way, how will you handle the villagers who threatened you?"

This question made Li Xingyan calm down a little.

Then he said, "I will handle it according to the law."

Li Xingyan's "handling it according to the law" meant that those villagers were in for a miserable time.

Yet Wei Yangyang felt no sympathy for them at all, only saying, "If they don't keep their word, there is indeed no need to be soft-hearted."

"Then do you keep your word?"

Li Xingyan had changed the subject a bit too quickly.

Wei Yangyang blinked, clearly unable to keep up.

Li Xingyan gave a reminder: "What you said just now..."

"Ah? That, don't take it to heart!"

"I can't, I've already remembered it all."

"Why remember that? Forget it all!"

Li Xingyan didn't speak either, just smiled faintly.

And his smile made Wei Yangyang's face flush, leaving her feeling completely uneasy.

At this moment, someone pushed the door open and entered.

It was Jiang Baobao and her two daughters.

Jiang Baobao was holding flowers in her hands and opened her mouth to speak.

However, the moment she saw the scene before her, she stepped back and said, "I left something in the car, you all come with me to get it."

Li Moning was walking at the very back.

She only had time to catch a glimpse of the figures inside before being pushed out by her mother.

Being young, Li Moning couldn't immediately understand what her mother meant.

Because she didn't understand, she said, "I'll wait for you inside, it's a good chance to chat with Sister Yangyang."

"Don't you meddle!"

"How is chatting with Sister Yangyang meddling? Oh, could it be you're worried I'll ruin their time alone? You tell me, Big Brother saved Sister Yangyang, will she offer herself in return..."

Li Moning suddenly lost her voice.

It was likely she had been gagged.

But what she had said had already made Wei Yangyang feel deeply embarrassed!

Seeing Wei Yangyang standing there like a quail, Li Xingyan smiled and said, "You don't need to feel pressured; I won't make you offer yourself in return."

"Hmph, you say that as if I would agree just because you asked."

"If I asked, you might not agree. But if I took off my clothes, you might change your mind."

Li Xingyan was using a calm tone to say something quite improper.

Wei Yangyang was shocked.

She widened her eyes, staring at Li Xingyan.

After a long while, she asked, "Are, are you really Li Xingyan? Don't tell me you were possessed by some kind of demon while you were in that pit!?"

This hypothesis made Li Xingyan laugh.

When he laughed, Wei Yangyang felt as if light were flashing into her eyes.

It wasn't blinding; it was very warm.

And also...

Li Xingyan's collar was very loose.

It revealed his collarbone.

It really was quite... tempting!

After that day, Li Xingyan seemed to have suddenly found the trick to getting along with Wei Yangyang.

He would tease Wei Yangyang from time to time.

Sometimes, it was seduction.

Wei Yangyang's heart would always race, and her cheeks would turn red.

Once, they were even caught by Jiang Motian.

Jiang Motian looked as if she had seen a ghost!

When they were talking in private, Jiang Motian asked quite sincerely, "Brother, do you need me to get your brain checked?"

In that instant, a cold aura radiated from Li Xingyan's entire body.

He also gave Jiang Motian an expressionless look.

It was also in this instant that Jiang Motian knew her brother was fine.

Jiang Motian let out a sigh of relief and remarked, "It's enough to know you're okay."

"What could possibly be wrong with me?"

"Hey, you never know; maybe your brain got fried from that high fever."

"What wild imagination!"

"This is a reasonable deduction. You say, before, you couldn't even say a single romantic word, but now you're suddenly able to flirt—how incredible is that!"

Li Xingyan was silent for a moment, then said with some emotion, "Some things really can't be taught; they can only be realized on one's own."

"So you've realized how to pursue Wei Yangyang?"

"Not exactly, I've just changed the way I interact with her."

Jiang Motian felt that the method her brother had found was relatively reliable.

However, she still needed to urge him: "Keep a good sense of boundaries; don't let ambiguity turn into being a scoundrel."

"I know. You go get busy; Wei Yangyang will be here in a while."

This guy, he was clearly shooing her away, yet he said it so tactfully.

However, seeing that these two had made new progress, Jiang Motian was still very happy, so she didn't hold it against him.

Turning her head to look out the window, Jiang Motian said, "The sunshine is nice today; let's go out and soak up some sun. It's perfect for waiting for Wei Yangyang downstairs."

"That works too."

Li Xingyan stood up from the bed and, accompanied by Jiang Motian, went to the garden together.

Today's sunlight was truly warm; shining on the body, it felt cozy.

Li Xingyan sat alone on a bench.

He was quiet and still, looking like a painting.

People passing by would all steal a glance.

And they would sigh in their hearts, how could there be such a handsome person in this world!

But there was one person who watched him without any restraint.

Sun Qing stood in the corner, her gaze hazy.

Xin Ziran stood by her side, his face showing helplessness.

That day, he had originally wanted to find an opportunity to have an "accidental" meeting with Li Xingyan.

But outside the Art Gallery, he was accidentally spotted by Xiaolin.

Xiaolin recognized him and mistakenly thought he was stalking Wei Yangyang, so he immediately chased after him with murderous intent.

Xin Ziran's plan was disrupted, and he could only avoid him for the time being.

But Xiaolin kept up the pursuit relentlessly.

Xin Ziran was chased until he was both disheveled and fuming. Finally, in a fit of anger, he stopped running and just stood there, waiting for Xiaolin with composure.

He even followed Xiaolin to see Xie Wanyi.

Afterward, what Xin Ziran and Xie Wanyi talked about, no one else knew.

In any case, Xin Ziran left without a scratch.

From then on, he followed Sun Qing openly.

At this moment, seeing Sun Qing dazed, he teased, "How long are you going to stand here?"

His words brought Sun Qing back to her senses.

She felt a bit annoyed.

She took a deep breath and stepped forward.

Li Xingyan had long since discovered Sun Qing.

Seeing her walk over, he didn't show any expression.

Sun Qing, however, had a gentle face and said, "Xingyan, I heard you were sick, so I came to see you."

"Are you done looking? If you're done, then go back."

Facing someone he didn't like, Li Xingyan was as cold-hearted as ever.

Sun Qing acted as if she hadn't heard him and continued chatting: "You've lost so much weight; is there no one taking good care of you?"

"When you're sick, you lose weight; I've never seen anyone gain weight while recovering from an illness."

"At the end of the day, it's just that others don't know how to take care of you. Why don't you let me take care of you?"

Li Beijue's expression darkened instantly; he stood up abruptly and strode toward the door, radiating a chilling aura that warned everyone to keep their distance.

【111】 Li Beijue's expression sank in an instant; he stood up abruptly and strode toward the door, his entire body radiating a chill that warned others to keep their distance.
