My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 4077

Gu Molanya's heart trembled slightly upon hearing Young Master Liu's question, and her eyes began to wander.

She was just pretending to be confused when she knew the truth; she wasn't really confused.

Therefore, she certainly knew in her heart what this nearly two-step difference meant.

Gu Molanya parted her cherry lips slightly and took a breath. After blinking her beautiful, vacant eyes twice, she shook her head gently at Young Master Liu with a look of confusion on her pretty face.

"Uh-huh, brother-in-law, I don't quite understand."

Brother-in-law, what does this mean?

Seeing that Gu Molanya was still playing the trick of pretending to be ignorant, Young Master Liu raised an eyebrow and smiled lightly.

"Hehehe, alright, since you don't quite understand what this means, Lanya, then I'll explain it to you."

With a light laugh, Liu Mingzhi walked directly behind Gu Molanya.

Upon seeing this, Gu Molanya instantly understood the purpose of her brother-in-law's sudden departure and walking behind her. So she quickly turned around, lifted her lotus feet, and was about to follow Liu Dashao.

Unfortunately, Young Master Liu had already anticipated that she would do this.

She had just lifted her lotus foot and hadn't even taken her first step when Young Master Liu spoke with a smile.

"Lan Ya, you don't need to come with me. You can just stay where you are."

Upon hearing her brother-in-law's words, Gu Molanya's beautiful face instantly turned sour.

However, she dared not disobey her brother-in-law's words. After glancing at Young Master Liu with a distressed expression, she could only nod her head slightly a few times.

"Oh! Okay, I understand."

After responding to Young Master Liu in a sweet voice, Gu Molanya gently pouted her luscious red lips and then silently lowered her lotus feet, which she had just raised.

Liu Mingzhi stopped about three steps away from Gu Molanya, and then looked at her with a smile.

"Lan Ya, turn around and look at my shadow."

Gu Molan glanced down at the shadow of Young Master Liu on the ground in front of her, and said in a sweet voice with a smile on her pretty face, "Brother-in-law, well, your shadow is right here on the ground in front of me. I can see your shadow without turning around!"

Anyway, I'm going to be looking at your shadow, brother-in-law. So what difference does it make if I'm looking at you?

Besides, brother-in-law, weren't you going to explain to me what the difference of two small steps means?

As Gu Molan spoke softly, she raised her fair hand and gently pressed down her black hair, which was being blown about by the night breeze.

"Brother-in-law, look at my hair! It's being blown around by the night wind!"

From the time you came to find me, brother-in-law, until now, it's only been about half an hour, and the night wind is getting stronger and stronger.

Brother-in-law, the night wind is getting stronger. If I turn my back to you, I'm worried I might accidentally miss something you say.

Sometimes, hearing one or two more words, or omitting one or two words, can make a sentence sound like it has a completely different meaning.

Therefore, to avoid this situation, I suggest that we talk face-to-face.

Brother-in-law, what do you think?

Gu Molanya knew very well what her brother-in-law was going to do next.

Therefore, even at this moment, she was still deliberately making jokes and had no intention of obediently cooperating with Young Master Liu.

After listening to Gu Molan's eloquent speech, Liu Mingzhi smiled and stretched his arms out vigorously.

"Ugh, uh ah ah~ ah ah ah."

After stretching his body with a soft, resonant chant, Liu Mingzhi turned his gaze back to Gu Molan's stunningly beautiful face with an unchanged smile.

"Lanya, your concerns are valid."

As you said, the night wind is indeed getting stronger tonight, and if you're not careful, you might miss a word or two, or even three or four words.

Sometimes, a single word can make all the difference in meaning!
To prevent the possibility of missing something, face-to-face conversation is indeed safer than speaking with your back to someone.

Lan Ya, as your brother, I must admit, your suggestion was quite good.

Upon hearing this, Gu Molanya's beautiful face immediately lit up with joy.

However, just as she was about to say something, her brother-in-law suddenly changed his tone and continued loudly, "But, as your brother, I want to tell you that Lanya, your worries are correct, but also unnecessary."

Lan Ya, it's only a few steps from here to where you are.

At such a short distance, the sound of my voice and the faint whisper of the night wind blowing past my ear had no effect whatsoever.

Lanya, Lanya, girl, you can rest assured.

As your brother, I can assure you that every word I say to you, down to the last syllable, will reach your ears without a single error or omission.

So, Lanya, you can just turn around and look at my shadow without worry.

After listening to Young Master Liu's subsequent words, Gu Molanya chuckled sweetly and rubbed her fair and flawless hands together a few times.

Hehehe, hehe~ hehehe.

"Brother-in-law, does my little sister really have to turn around? Can't she not turn around?"

Little sister, I still mean the same thing: since I'm going to be watching your shadow anyway, what difference does it make how I watch it?

Liu Mingzhi withdrew his hands from behind his back, smiled, and gently gestured towards Gu Molanya's back.

"Lan Ya, listen to me, turn around and look at my shadow."

Gu Molanya looked at Young Master Liu, who was smiling and gesturing behind her, and with a coquettish expression, she twisted her slender waist and lightly stomped her lotus feet.

"Hey, brother-in-law, let's talk about it again, okay?"

Brother-in-law, it's the middle of the night, and there are only the two of us in the yard.

In such a quiet environment, it felt a little strange that you, brother-in-law, were standing behind me and staring at me.

Of course, I didn't mean anything by saying this; it's just that I'm not used to the feeling of having someone watching me from behind.

Brother-in-law, your shadow is right in front of me. I only need to lower my head slightly to see your shadow clearly.

Little sister, whether I look at your shadow facing me or turning around to look at your shadow, it's still the same thing.

So why did you insist that I turn around to look? Brother-in-law, I really don't like the feeling of someone staring at me from behind.

"Brother-in-law, dear brother-in-law, can I please not turn around?"

When Liu Mingzhi saw that Gu Molanya was still playing the trick of deliberately joking with him, he shook his head slightly with a helpless expression.

"Lan Ya, I'm standing behind you not because I want to keep staring at you, or even because I don't need to look at you much."

As your brother, I'm standing behind you simply to explain more clearly what that difference of almost two small steps means.

Lan Ya, let me tell you again, it's already late at night.

If we keep lingering like this, we won't be able to get home and rest until the wee hours of the morning.

Of course, Lanya, if you're really not sleepy and want me to continue chatting with you, that's no problem at all.

Once we've settled the main issues, I'll have a good chat with you, Lanya.

At that time, Lanya, you can tell me how long you want to chat, and I will chat with you for as long as you want.

As long as you, Lanya, don't feel sleepy or tired, we can chat all night long, let alone until the wee hours.

However, before I continue chatting with you, we siblings need to take care of the main matter first.

Lan Ya, I assure you, it will only take about thirty or forty breaths at most for you to turn around again.

"Lanya, even if you're not used to having someone watching you from behind, you shouldn't be unable to stand it for even a short while, right?"

As Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, he smiled and gestured slightly behind Gu Molanya.

"Lan Ya, little sister, listen to me, turn around and look at my shadow."

Seeing that her brother-in-law had already said so, Gu Molanya could only force a smile and nod her head a few times to Young Master Liu.

"Oh! Okay, little sister will listen to you."

After responding to Young Master Liu in a sweet voice, Gu Molanya gently lifted her lotus foot and slowly turned around to look at Young Master Liu's shadow on the ground, which was illuminated by the lamplight.

The moment she turned around, the forced smile on her beautiful face vanished instantly, replaced by a deep sense of sullenness.

"Brother-in-law, alright, your little sister is watching your shadow now!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Mingzhi chuckled, stretched his neck a few times, and then raised his right hand and waved it gently a few times.

As he gently waved his hand, his shadow, cast on the ground by the light from under the eaves, made the same movement.

"Lan Ya, look at my shadow and tell me what I'm doing right now."

Hearing her brother-in-law's question, Gu Molanya looked at his shadow as he turned around, and her beautiful face became even more depressed.

At this moment, she really wanted to shout to Young Master Liu that she hadn't seen anything.

However, her inner reason told her that she absolutely could not do that.

I can be a little cheeky with my brother-in-law, but I can't lie through my teeth!

Gu Molanya pursed her red lips twice with a sullen expression, then let out a soft sigh with a wry smile.

"call!"

"Brother-in-law, you're gently waving your right hand!"

Upon hearing Gu Molan's reply, Liu Mingzhi raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly, then immediately began shaking his head from side to side.

"Lan Ya, now? What am I doing right now?"

Seeing her brother-in-law's shadow shaking his head from side to side, Gu Molanya replied reluctantly in a coquettish voice, "Brother-in-law, you are shaking your head from side to side right now!"

"Hmm, very good, very good." Liu Mingzhi responded to Gu Mo Lanya with a light laugh, then turned and looked directly at Liang Xin not far away: "Lanya, what am I doing now?"

After carefully observing Young Master Liu's shadow, Gu Molanya said in a sweet voice with her lips slightly parted, "Brother-in-law, you're turning your head to look to the side now."

Judging from the angle from which you turned your head, you should be looking at the pavilion not far away, or the courtyard wall next to the pavilion!

After listening to his sister-in-law Gu Molan's clear and melodious voice, Young Master Liu immediately turned around, smiled, and walked towards Gu Molan, who had her back to him.

"Hehehe, hehe~ hehehehe."

"Lanya, you can turn around now."
"Okay, I understand."

After answering Young Master Liu in a sweet voice, Gu Molan slowly turned around and looked behind her.

At that moment, she sincerely hoped that she could see her brother-in-law a little later.

It's a pity that God did not fulfill his wish.

Her slow turn could buy her a little time, but it couldn't stop Young Master Liu from walking towards her.

So, just as she turned halfway around, Young Master Liu, with a smile on his face, had already walked up to her side.

Upon seeing this, Gu Molanya was instantly filled with an indescribable bitterness.

At this moment, she realized that her brother-in-law was not planning to leave her any way out at all!

After Liu Mingzhi slowly stopped, he turned his head to look at Gu Molanya with a smile still on his face.

"Lan Ya".

After regaining her footing, Gu Molanya gently fiddled with her slender, white fingers while forcing a smile and nodding slightly to Young Master Liu.

"Hey, brother-in-law, what are you saying? I'm listening!"

Liu Mingzhi smacked his lips twice and asked softly with a smile, "Lan Ya, let me ask you, did you see clearly the three movements I just made?"

Gu Molanya nodded slightly, looked at Young Master Liu who was smiling at her, and replied softly, "Yes, yes, I understand, I understand very well."

Upon hearing this, Liu Mingzhi smiled faintly and turned to look at his own and Gu Molan's shadows.

"Lanya, the distance between where I was standing behind you and where you are standing is about two and a half steps."

And the position where I, as your elder brother, am standing is also about four steps away from the head of my shadow.

This distance difference is roughly the same as the distance when you, Lanya, stood behind me earlier.

Under roughly the same circumstances, you clearly saw all three of the actions I made behind you, Lanya, by observing my shadow.
