An Xiao Li’s household house on the fifth ground was the identical structure as the opposite flooring within the constructing, it solely included one giant bed room and one small bed room. Qin Sang’s household house was under An Xiao Li’s household house, on the fourth ground. Qin Sang was capable of share the big bed room together with her mum, Ye Dao and Li Wei Ran may sleep within the small bed room.

An Xiao Li’s sleeping association wasn’t simply solved as Qin Sang’s sleeping association. Since Chen Yu Bai was visiting as Miss Chen’s nephew, An Xiao Li didn’t have a spot to sleep. Miss Chen gave Chen Yu Bai the particular remedy and she or he didn’t hesitate in addition An Xiao Li downstairs to squeeze in the identical mattress as Ye Dao and Qin Sang.

An Xiao Li wore an evening shirt with a cartoon printed on it and she or he hugged her white rabbit to the lounge of her household house and refused to go downstairs.

Miss Chen’s order wasn’t up for negotiation so when she noticed An Xiao Li standing stubbornly in the lounge, she couldn’t maintain again and used her palm to push An Xiao Li’s cussed head.

The second Chen Yu Bai stepped out of the small bed room he noticed Xiao Li let Miss Chen vent on Xiao Li with out protest. Despite the fact that Miss Chen was his aunt, he was nonetheless indignant seeing somebody harm Xiao Li.

However when An Xiao Li noticed Chen Yu Bai, she hugged her rabbit and shortly disappeared from her household house. An Xiao Li and her rabbit flew downstairs and knocked on the entrance door of Qin Sang’s household house to hunt refuge.

Inside An Xiao Li’s household house, Chen Yu Bai calmly stopped the indignant Miss Chen from ordering Xiao Li to return again. ‘Chen Yin Ren, aunt you’re getting fiercer by the day.’

‘You don’t know what she’s like. If she’s not hit then her pores and skin might be itchy. I’m indignant to demise, she’s clumsy and fickle…’ Miss Chen mentioned.

‘Didn’t you say she’s an angel?’ Chen Yu Bai requested.

Chen Yu Bai remembered that 12 months Miss Chen introduced her husband’s daughter to Chen Yu Bai’s household house, Miss Chen appeared the happiest he’d seen her that 12 months.

At the moment Miss Chen was adamant about marrying a poor widower with a bit of daughter. The Chen family battled with Miss Chen to the purpose of trembling heaven and earth. The Chen family’s robust strain of disapproval didn’t waver Miss Chen’s resolution. Miss Chen packed her belongings and at evening left with the poor widower and the little lady. Earlier than Miss Chen left she vowed that she’d minimize all ties with the Chen family.

When the ‘little unusual creature’ visited Chen Yu Bai’s house, he didn’t need to be separated from Miss Chen. At evening earlier than Miss Chen left, Miss Chen talked to him the entire evening. Miss Chen talked about her life dream, her life happiness, the person she beloved and… An Xiao Li.

‘Xiao Li is completely different to you… that’s not proper, Xiao Li is completely different to different children. She’s a bit of angel, she doesn’t perceive something however but she understands the whole lot,’ Miss Chen mentioned.

At the moment Miss Chen was younger and clinked a glass of wine with Chen Yu Bai’s glass of wine. Miss Chen tilted her head again and gulped down the wine.

Chen Yu Bai was aggravated while listening to Miss Chen’s romanticised depiction of Miss Chen’s new household, he quietly drank his glass of wine.

‘She’s a very completely happy child, An Bu San taught her nicely. She’s well mannered and understands the state of affairs. She’s like pure sunshine above the clouds within the sky. However I can see in her eyes that she worries about dwelling a tough life. Her worries are actually… naive, she is aware of clearly this world doesn’t exist with out windy storms. However she will make her sky clear blue with no single cloud. Yu Bai, she and her dad makes me really feel that the whole lot is quite a bit less complicated than I believed it may possibly ever be. Simply being with them, irrespective of how onerous life is, I’ll at all times be completely happy. So I want to go away, do you perceive?’ Miss Chen mentioned.

The teenager Chen Yu Bai didn’t perceive. At the moment he began testing out his abilities within the share market world. Every thing at the moment was easy, the whole lot fell into two classes – 1, had been issues that he wanted and a couple of, had been issues that he didn’t want.

The teenager Chen Yu Bai didn’t maintain again Miss Chen who he had the perfect relationship with within the Chen family. However the teen Chen Yu Bai was vindictive, he remembered very clearly the little lady named ‘An Xiao Li.’

Angel? The teenager Chen Yu Bai was really curious what an angel appeared like.

The teenager Chen Yu Bai used his chilly eyes to cover his emotions of attachment, and the grownup Chen Yu Bai felt he was nonetheless the teenager Chen Yu Bai. The grownup Chen Yu Bai stared on the cluttered sneakers on the door and smiled. Xiao Li wasn’t an angel, she was extra of a dummy.

Miss Chen was considerable in a few years of life experiences. She simply recognised the suspicious change in Chen Yu Bai – she’d by no means seen her nephew smiled warmly. She sighed on the within and patted his shoulder. ‘I’m solely going to say this a lot. I’ve raised her for a few years, she’s like my very own daughter. I’m not going to let her be heartbroken and harm.’

Chen Yu Bai understood Miss Chen knew about him and Xiao Li however he didn’t admit it to Miss Chen, he solely responded ‘oh’ to acknowledge that he heard Miss Chen’s warning.

An Bu San fortunately stepped out of the school room with a chess board and a cup of tea in his arms. ‘Miss Chen, name downstairs and summon the little boy to play chess with me.’

Chen Yu Bai was extraordinarily modest with Xiao Li’s dad. ‘Uncle, I simply learnt the best way to play chess. Can uncle train me just a few chess methods?’

An Bu San beloved juniors who had been humble and respectable probably the most and excitedly nodded his head. Miss Chen fumed, she checked out her oblivious and gullible husband who didn’t perceive the state of affairs and it made her extra annoyed. Miss Chen packed away the chess board and made An Bu San and Chen Yu Bai exchanged a Miss-Chen-is-too-fierce look with one another. ‘Ate sufficient but? Each of you fall asleep!’

Downstairs the little boy that performed chess with An Bu San had an pressing matter to take care of and left Qin Sang’s household house. An Xiao Li crawled into Qin Sang’s mattress. Qin Sang went to her mum’s room to get an additional mattress sheet and pillow and knowledgeable her mum that Li Wei Ran left already. Ye Dao listened calmly to Qin Sang and didn’t ask any questions.

In Qin Sang’s room, neither Qin Sang nor An Xiao Li may sleep. They each laid quietly on the mattress so the ring tone of An Xiao Li’s telephone intruded their quiet reflections.

An Xiao Li noticed the caller ID was ‘little Bai’ and the photograph underneath the caller ID was of Chen Yu Bai sleeping. Despite the fact that within the photograph he was sleeping deeply, she by no means knew why his lips had been smiling.

That photograph showing in the course of the evening was like a pointy thorn pierced into An Xiao Li’s coronary heart. She pressed the reject name button.

Then An Xiao Li thought of Chen Yu Bai’s temperament and she or he was sure he would name her once more so she texted him. ‘What’s it? I’m sleeping.’

‘I’ve one thing to say to you. Come exterior,’ Chen Yu Bai texted.

‘No, I’m chilly,’ An Xiao Li texted.

While An Xiao Li quietly waited for Chen Yu Bai’s textual content, she tidied the litter in her coronary heart – she removed each bit of litter one after the other, every stick and every stone.

It appeared An Xiao Li all of a sudden realised, what Miss Chen’s nephew trampled over was the final shred of happiness she saved for him. A person nevertheless good and sensible, may solely be held onto briefly and sooner or later it wasn’t sure he’d keep. An Xiao Li not felt she may consider that love may conquer all.

Chen Yu Bai known as An Xiao Li once more and she or he pressed the reject name button once more then she waited for a very long time for his textual content.

‘An Xiao Li!’ Chen Yu Bai texted.

‘Sure?’ An Xiao Li texted.

‘I didn’t purposely cover it from you, don’t be indignant,’ Chen Yu Bai texted.

‘I’m not indignant,’ An Xiao Li texted.

‘Then tomorrow I’ll discuss to Miss Chen about us,’ Chen Yu Bai texted.

‘What about us?’ An Xiao Li texted.

‘About us getting engaged quickly,’ Chen Yu Bai texted.

An Xiao Li didn’t really feel any pleasure about Chen Yu Bai’s textual content reply as an alternative she felt extra drained. She texted one final textual content to him and switched off her telephone. ‘No, don’t inform them about us. I’m sleepy, will focus on extra tomorrow. Good evening.’

Qin Sang heard An Xiao Li’s telephone was switched off. ‘Performed considering but?

‘Nonetheless considering,’ An Xiao Li mentioned

‘Take your time considering,’ Qin Sang mentioned.

‘Um,’ An Xiao Li mentioned.

Night time was the gentlest calm dish on the earth. At three within the morning, An Xiao Li sighed and Qin Sang sighed too.

‘I need to break up with him,’ An Xiao Li mentioned.

‘I need to inform him the reality,’ Qin Sang mentioned.

‘What?’ An Xiao Li and Qin Sang mentioned on the identical time.

Qin Sang rolled over and confronted An Xiao Li. ‘Xiao Li, are you critical?’

‘Um… I really like him, however he’s not suitable with me. It’s not equal between us. Maybe, he likes me. But it surely’s most probably in a lifetime he can’t do one factor, which is love me. Even one thing as essential as being Miss Chen’s nephew, he hid it from me. It reveals he’s nonetheless not sure about us. Sang Sang, I can solely stay just a few a long time. Why do I want to just accept feeling harm for that lengthy? I have to discover a man who’ll deal with me good,’ An Xiao Li mentioned.

Qin Sang quietly listened to An Xiao Li. She stretched out an arm and hugged An Xiao Li’s shoulder. ‘It seems you perceive already.’

‘Sang Sang, I need to break up. Such as you mentioned initially, it’s higher for Chu Hao Ran to recollect me for the remainder of his life. I would like little Bai to recollect me for the remainder of his life too,’ An Xiao Li mentioned.

Qin Sang heard An Xiao Li’s hope and thought it was laughable. Chu Hao Ran wasn’t in the identical league as Chen Yu Bai. Breaking apart with Chu Hao Ran was straightforward. However breaking apart with Chen Yu Bai… could be quite a bit more durable.

‘Sang Sang, it’s onerous to cope with Chen Yu Bai. It’s important to assist me,’ An Xiao Li mentioned.

‘If you happen to really don’t love him anymore, it’s not onerous to interrupt up with him. The toughest factor about love at all times lies inside an individual’s coronary heart. Xiao Li, I’ll assist no matter resolution you make however it is advisable to give it some thought fastidiously,’ Qin Sang mentioned.

An Xiao Li needed to cry when she thought of not having a person named little Bai in her life. However the shock she obtained from him within the afternoon was too huge and she or he was decided. ‘Um, I thought of it fastidiously already. I need to break up with him.’

Qin Sang and An Xiao Li couldn’t sleep all evening however slept soundly within the morning. Ye Dao noticed it was snowing exterior and didn’t get up Qin Sang. Ye Dao went to mark her college students’ finish of semester exams in school.

Upstairs Chen Yu Bai didn’t know if it was sleeping on an unfamiliar mattress or if he didn’t have Xiao Li sleeping subsequent to him, however he couldn’t sleep peacefully all evening. When he was half dreaming and half awake, he needed to hug Xiao Li however she wasn’t sleeping in his arms. Then he remembered that Miss dummy was nonetheless indignant and slept downstairs.

What was there to be indignant about? Chen Yu Bai washed his face and noticed the sunshine bluish bruise underneath his eye baggage. He felt annoyed and he regretted spoiling Xiao Li.

Chen Yu Bai known as Xiao Li’s telephone and it was nonetheless switched off. By the point it was 9, he couldn’t wait anymore. He known as Qin Sang, however Qin Sang’s telephone was switched off too. He noticed Miss Chen and An Bu San went to their college to mark finish of semester exams and thought that Ye Dao could be in school too. He placed on his jacket and went downstairs.

Chen Yu Bai knocked on the entrance door of Qin Sang’s household house. Qin Sang opened the door. She wore a velvet gown over her evening shirt that uncovered her lengthy wholesome legs. Inside a second he thought in regards to the harmless pitta fowl on Xiao Li’s evening shirt. Then he awkwardly appeared away and coughed just a few occasions. ‘The place’s Xiao Li?’

Qin Sang was nonetheless in a dreamy state and scratched her head. ‘Sleeping.’

Chen Yu Bai noticed Qin Sang’s uncommon dazed face that was normally coldly calm and he spoke gentler. ‘Can I inconvenient you to sleep in one other room? I need to discuss to Xiao Li.’

‘No,’ Qin Sang mentioned.

Qin Sang rubbed her eyes and rotated to return to sleep in her room.

Chen Yu Bai waited for a very long time however Qin Sang didn’t transfer to a different room to sleep. He knew that Qin Sang purposely made it onerous for him to speak to Xiao Li.

Chen Yu Bai sat on the couch and waited in the lounge of Qin Sang’s household house till the afternoon. Ye Dao opened the entrance door and the second she stepped inside she felt a murderous aura. Ye Dao appeared on the couch in the lounge and noticed Miss Chen’s nephew.

‘What are you doing sitting on the couch by your self? The place’s Sang Sang and Xiao Li?’ Ye Dao requested.

Chen Yu Bai smiled and spoke politely. ‘I got here to search for Xiao Li. However Qin Sang isn’t awake but. It’s nothing, I’ll await some time.’ He checked out his watch. ‘No rush.’

Ye Dao raised her eyebrows and strode to Qin Sang’s room. She put her bag down and shook each Qin Sang and Xiao Li awake.

An Xiao Li’s hair was messy, she rubbed her eyes and stepped exterior Qin Sang’s room. While she was yawning she noticed Chen Yu Bai standing in the lounge. He stood together with his arms crossed and he was watching her.

An Xiao Li remembered what occurred yesterday and inside a second she felt he was hateable. ‘What are you doing right here?’

Chen Yu Bai sighed. He stepped towards Xiao Li, fastened her messy hair and pinched her cheek. ‘I got here to say I’m sorry. I’m sorry, don’t be indignant anymore, okay?’

An Xiao Li was quiet, as a result of it was uncommon that Chen Yu Bai put apart his pleasure and apologised. In that second Qin Sang in her evening shirt ‘flew’ handed Chen Yu Bai and An Xiao Li into the lavatory to clean her face.

An Xiao Li composed herself. ‘Go upstairs first. Later I’ll come upstairs and we are able to discuss.’

Chen Yu Bai hesitated whether or not to go upstairs and wait. However while he was indecisive, Qin Sang in her evening shirt flew from the lavatory and straight to her room. He knew clearly it was Qin Sang’s affect that made Xiao Li decided and his face felt colder.

Chen Yu Bai admitted to himself that he lowered his head to his lowest tolerated threshold, he coldly strode exterior.

Half an hour later, An Xiao Li went upstairs. Chen Yu Bai sat on the couch and unhappily waited in the lounge. She didn’t panic as she did previously when she noticed that he was indignant. She calmly went to her room, modified her garments, brushed her hair and went to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of milk.

‘What do you need to say to me?’ An Xiao Li requested calmly.

Chen Yu Bai was by no means affected person as he was in Xiao Li’s household house. However he was unsuitable first. He took a deep breath and spoke calmly. ‘I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have hid my relationship with Miss Chen from you.’

‘I settle for your apology. Is there the rest?’ An Xiao Li mentioned.

Chen Yu Bai wrinkled his brow. ‘Don’t you need to know… after I recognised you?’

‘If you happen to don’t need to inform me, even when I requested it’ll be pointless. That side about you I do know too nicely,’ An Xiao Li mentioned.

An Xiao Li used the excuse of consuming milk to bend her head and keep away from taking a look at Chen Yu Bai’s eyes.

Chen Yu Bai laughed coldly. ‘What else did Qin Sang train you?’

‘Is my IQ that low that I have to depend on another person to grasp these form of issues?’ An Xiao Li requested.

Chen Yu Bai was choked for phrases.

‘You’ve by no means promised me something so I believed I don’t have to formally say I need to break up with you. However, Chen Yu Bai, I’m formally telling you – from this second, the one connection that we’ve is that we’re cousins by way of marriage. My mother and father don’t find out about our previous so there’s no want to inform them. It’s as much as you if you wish to keep right here and rejoice New Yr, as a result of we’re nonetheless cousins and internet hosting you for just a few days isn’t a problem,’ An Xiao Li recited what she memorised final evening.

Chen Yu Bai laughed coldly and his abdomen ached. ‘An Xiao Li, I’m not an individual with out rules, you shouldn’t take it too far.’

‘I’m an individual with rules too, you shouldn’t take it too far both,’ An Xiao Li mentioned coldly.

An Xiao Li’s again was truly sweating, as a result of Chen Yu Bai’s expression was too scary.

The wind banged towards the home windows, there was no heater inside the lounge and each Chen Yu Bai and An Xiao Li had been chilly and quiet. Lastly, he realised that Miss dummy was really indignant, the decided look in her eyes froze his coronary heart.

It was the primary time in Chen Yu Bai’s life that he felt scared. However he knew he’d by no means meet a second individual with the identical look in Xiao Li’s eyes that made him felt compassionate and scared to that extent.

‘What’s it that you really want…’ Chen Yu Bai surrendered.

Chen Yu Bai was drained and requested An Xiao Li, no matter she needed he was keen to let her have her method.

‘Chen Yu Bai, I don’t want you anymore,’ An Xiao Li mentioned. She gripped her arms and compelled herself to proceed. ‘I need to be far-off from you. I need to discover somebody who’s suitable with me greater than you. That somebody doesn’t have to be as good-looking as you or wealthy as you. I simply want that somebody to deal with me higher than you deal with me and who can convey extra happiness into my life than you possibly can.’

Chen Yu Bai admitted that his coronary heart was at all times lined in ice. However in that second Xiao Li’s phrases made his icy coronary heart soften into the coldest water, it was so chilly that there was no heat steam in any respect.

‘Superb, very clean,’ Chen Yu Bai mentioned. He clapped his arms. ‘An Xiao Li, you’re too good. Go forward and discover your happiness, I received’t cease you.’
