Rekindle 2003

Chapter 1156: I Can't See the Reason to Oppose

Li Yali rolled her eyes at him unhappily, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face as her eyes moved.

After giving him a light kick under the table, she simply admitted, "Okay, it's me, okay!"

After saying that, she glared at him fiercely again, her eyes containing both reproach and a tacit understanding of "you know what I mean".

Qing Yun chuckled and motioned for her to continue telling the story. He promised to be a good kid who listened to the story.

“I actually didn’t study in Jincheng for the first three years of primary school, but in the Primary School Affiliated to Renmin University.

Most of the children in that school have parents and even grandparents who are professors or graduates from Peking University or Tsinghua University.

When they were in the first grade, many of them had learned at least as much as the fourth grade, and some children's knowledge reserves had even reached the junior high school level.

And I...was a blank slate when I walked into the school.

The situation at that time was that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t catch up with them, and I was the last in the class…”

After all, he was a teacher in his previous life, and Qingyun understood when he heard this.

There was a glimmer of sympathy in his eyes. He thought of how helpless and painful it must be to be left far behind by his peers.

But you can't blame anyone else.

All I can say is that wherever there are Chinese people, there is no place without curling.

The Renmin University Primary School is where the second and third generation of paper kings gather.

That is a place where Gu are bred. The Gu King bred there will surely reach the pinnacle and dominate the world.

But it is also a pity to see them fall.

This is to use the cost of a bunch of geniuses being defeated as nutrients to forge the strong heart of the genius among geniuses.

Li Yali had been destroyed before.

She is now probably rebuilt on the ruins.

In fact, this kind of reconstruction cannot be said to be bad. In fact, because confidence has been shattered, it will be more resilient.

However, this kind of pain is not something that ordinary people can endure.

Qing Yun's eyes were full of sympathy and understanding. He comforted Li Yali softly, trying to ease the burden in her heart.

"Sister Yali, this kind of starting position is not necessarily a good thing. If you don't have the talent, you will only..."

Li Yali interrupted him with a smile, "But it ensures the child's bottom line and gives him the chance to start again."

Qing Yun was speechless, because he knew that what Li Yali said was absolutely right.

Her words reveal a clear understanding of the reality of education.

In the race of education, talent is important, but the advantages at the starting line cannot be ignored.

Those children who are not gifted, if they are properly guided and motivated, may not be able to reach the top level, but they can at least achieve above-average results.

This largely determines their future.

The junior high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination are actually watersheds in life. No amount of chicken soup can comfort you.

Those who lose in these two competitions will have to pay for this failure for the rest of their lives.

Seeing that he had nothing to say, Li Yali smiled gently, with a hint of bitterness in her smile, and continued,

"Qingyun, not everyone is as gifted as you. Most children need constant positive and negative feedback."

Qing Yun actually knows very well that for most children, what they need in the process of growing up is not only the inculcation of knowledge, but also encouragement and recognition. These positive feedbacks are their internal driving force to move forward.

And this internal driving force is called self-confidence.

"I am the most typical example. I was devastated at the time. My parents transferred me to Jincheng in the fourth grade for my growth. It was an ordinary school so that I could rebuild my confidence little by little. I am here today. I understand the importance of self-confidence better than anyone else."

Li Yali's voice gradually became lower, and her eyes revealed determination and gratitude.

She knew that if it weren't for her parents' timely decision, she might never be able to get rid of that shadow, nor would she have the confidence and composure she has today.

Qing Yun swallowed hard, his heart filled with mixed emotions, "So... I understand."

He had to admit that Li Yali's parents were very wise and knew a lot about education.

Instead of blindly pursuing the halo of a prestigious school, they chose an environment that was more suitable for Li Yali's growth, allowing her to stand up from failure and regain her confidence.

The success of this educational method lies not only in the personal achievements that Li Yali has made since then, but also in the cultivation of her inner strength and attitude towards life.

Therefore, he also understood why Li Yali retreated so quickly when faced with the targeted suppression from that arrogant bitch Qin Manyan.

Li Yali took a deep breath, her eyes flashing with anticipation for the future and relief for the past.
“So, whether it is education or life, it is not a sprint, but a marathon. In this long-distance race, we need not only speed, but also endurance and strategy.”

At this moment, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "The same is true for feelings."

She glanced at Qing Yun, who had a blank expression, jokingly, "Qin Manyan's original target against me was to attack me in the areas where I am best at."

Qing Yun felt a toothache. She wanted to defend Qin Manyan's behavior, but she didn't want to hurt Li Yali.

Isn't it that every time he took an exam, he predicted his score to Li Yali, and after the exam, he told Li Yali which questions she would get wrong and how many points she would get based on her level...

And realize them one by one.

Well, I was a completely inhuman bitch in the first semester of my freshman year in high school, and this behavior was indeed bad and deserved a beating.

He hesitated and said, "Sister Yali, Manman she..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Li Yali with a chuckle.

"Hehe! You don't know, do you? Your Bai Yueguang was originally going to learn pipa from my teacher!"

Qing Yun was stunned when he heard this.

Damn it!
Defeating others in their best areas...

He really didn't expect that Qin Manyan would be so murderous and heartbreaking.

Not to mention Li Yali, he was a little scared.

I can only say that this woman really knows how to have fun.

"Learn a little bit" and then show off in front of Li Yali, saying that it's just so-so and your level is not that good, it's not fun...

This possibility is not only not low, but also inevitable in the eyes of all those who know the situation.

Unfortunately, the little princess also has outstanding talent in music.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to shine on the world stage with piano just by having money.

Li Yali's pipa is just the best, at the amateur Nth level.

With similar music theory, Qin Manyan can indeed surpass Li Yali in a very short time.

Seeing that he finally understood, Li Yali shrugged her shoulders and said with a sad face,

"Qingyun, you said, if I don't hide, what can I do? Are you trying to say that you must persist in loving me even if you get hurt?
Youngest brother, can you please have some shame? My parents and I are just ordinary people. "

Her voice revealed a deep sense of powerlessness. She knew that she could not compete with Qin Manyan and chose to avoid her. This was a kind of helplessness in reality, but also a protection of her self-worth.

Qing Yun felt dizzy, as if he was hit by a boomerang, and his mood was extremely complicated.

He gave a bitter smile and said something self-deprecating, "You know, I have never been shameless."

At this moment, a warm little hand gently covered his lips. Li Zhaojun looked at him with tenderness in her eyes and smiled.

"Don't belittle yourself. In fact, you have more shame than anyone else.

I know that your shamelessness now is just to gain more face."

She knew Qingyun's ambitions and aspirations, and understood the sacrifices he made for a greater goal.

Upon hearing this, Qing Yun was stunned again.

He looked at Li Yali, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart.

In this complex world, it is a blessing to have someone who understands him so well.

He announced that his number one die-hard fan had changed from Lady Qianying to Li Zhaojun...

Li Yali smiled slightly, cut the peeled kiwi into small pieces and handed them to Qingyun.

Qingyun took it and took a bite. The sweet and sour taste spread in his mouth. "Thank you!"

"Thank you, I'm just stating the facts."

The mood of the room turned cozy.

Li Yali got up and washed her hands.

Emperor Yun, though seemingly calm on the surface, was actually extremely panicked.

It's over. He rejected Li Yali's logical point and was completely peeled by Li Yali like peeling an apple or a kiwi.

Li Yali took a tissue from the table and wiped her hands, then sat down next to Qing Yun.

When Yun Di leaned towards her, goose bumps suddenly appeared on his body.

He was always the one picking up girls, even when he was seduced by Zhang Li in the car last time, he was actually the one who let her do that.

But today, he was completely defeated in the verbal battle by Li Yali, who usually looked gentle.

He felt like he was about to be taken advantage of by her...

Li Yali took a sip of the soda water gracefully. The cool liquid slid down her throat and seemed to take away some of her nervousness.

She turned her head and looked straight at Qingyun, her voice soft but with a barely perceptible tremor, "Qingyun, can you tell me, when you pretended to be drunk and leaned on me at the banquet, did you ever think about my situation?
Under the circumstances at that time, do you think others would not misunderstand our relationship?
You're such a smart person, you wouldn't have thought of it, right?
So, how do you explain your behavior?"

Although her voice was soft, every word was like a needle piercing Qingyun's heart, making him feel a sharp pain.

Damn, these women are more mischievous than the other!
If Li Zhaojun had asked this question at the beginning, he would definitely say that she was overthinking it.

At this time, as the situation became more and more serious, he was forced into a corner.

After he uttered twice, his face turned red.

What could he think...

In essence, he was just wantonly enjoying the ambiguous relationship with his confidante Li Yali.

It is neither the intense and passionate love, nor the self-evident affection of family, but it becomes a gentle harbor for the soul with an ambiguous yet distant attitude, "more than friends but less than lovers".

There is no way. The confidante in a man's mind is probably someone like Li Yali, beautiful, intelligent, considerate, and well-mannered.

Who doesn’t want to have such a confidante?
He thought so anyway.

And at this time...

Faced with Li Yali's questioning, Emperor Yun was already in a panic.

Well, he certainly knew that his actions would definitely bring trouble to Li Yali.

But he couldn't deny that he was selfish at that moment.

In his heart, Li Yali is his confidante.

In reality, it was impossible for him to stay in Chang'an for a long time. At most, he would come once every two or three months.

A beauty like Li Yali will never lack suitors.

He couldn't accept that Li Yali was chased away by someone.

The scene at the dinner table was something he did deliberately when the situation allowed.

Qing Yun lowered his head and avoided Li Yali's gaze.

But he didn't tell any lies.

Li Yali tilted her head to look at his cowardly look, and tapped his forehead with her finger. Her action was a little intimate, but also revealed a kind of reproach.
"Then can you tell me why you were so excited when I told you that a senior was pursuing me? You...can't bear to leave me?"

Her eyes were full of cuteness.

Emperor Yun sucked his teeth and covered his cheek, looking at her speechlessly.

He felt complicated. He knew that his behavior was unfair to Li Yali, but he couldn't completely give up this relationship.

He sighed, with a hint of helplessness in his voice: "Sister Yali, I...I just don't want to lose you, and don't want you to become someone else's woman."

Li Yali's face stiffened, her expression became serious, and her voice carried a hint of expectation and a hint of uneasiness, "So, what do you think?"

Her eyes were fixed on Qing Yun, trying to find the answer from his eyes.

Her heart beat faster. She was afraid to hear his answer, yet she longed to hear his true feelings.

When Qing Yun met her gaze, he felt flustered. He didn't know what to say. He was afraid that his answer would hurt Li Yali, but he also knew that he couldn't escape anymore.

He took a deep breath, his voice low and firm, "Sister Yali, I admit that I have a crush on you, but I...I can't make you a promise, I can't hurt you."

A bitter smile appeared on Qing Yun's lips, and his eyes revealed a complex emotion.

"Sister Yali, I already have six wives."

There was a hint of helplessness and self-mockery in his voice, as if he was mocking his own situation while also showing Li Yali the predicament he was facing.

Li Yali's eyes flashed with cunning, and she chuckled with a hint of ridicule in her tone.

"So, you don't want to be Wei Xiaobao?"

Her words went straight to Qingyun's heart, she knew his hesitation and struggle.

But she would not let go of this opportunity easily. She wanted to use this method to force Qingyun to face her true feelings.

Sorry, she knows him well too.

As long as he says it, the relationship will be confirmed.

Qing Yun nodded with a chuckle, although his smile was full of embarrassment.

He had to admit that Li Yali had found his weak spot by carefully analyzing the details.

But he could not deny that he actually had an irresistible desire and impulse towards her in his heart.

Li Yali rolled her eyes at him and complained quietly, "So what if there's one more of me? You're a scumbag! What's the difference between six and seven?"

At this point, she was stunned for a moment, staring into his eyes, and spoke with a strange expression, "It was Qin Manyan who didn't allow it, right? I knew it!"

Qing Yun shook her head. "You made a wrong judgment. She told me this last year."

He paused, shrugged his shoulders, and continued, "But her starting point is that your expertise and abilities are very useful to the whole family."

Li Yali rolled her eyes delicately, "That's exactly what she would say with her personality."

She knew Qin Manyan too well.

Best friends are best friends, but Qin Manyan is a pragmatist. She considers interests when it comes to anyone except Qingyun.

Thinking of this, she snorted coldly, "What about you? What do you think? I want to know what you think."

Qing Yun looked at her seriously and said, "I don't deny this, I agree with her opinion.

If we look at it from a utilitarian perspective, your major is electrical appliances, and your interdisciplinary choice of the Internet of Things is indeed very consistent with the future development direction of Yanhuang Group.

If you... could take charge of a sector, it would indeed be most beneficial to the family.

So, I refused because I didn’t want our relationship to deteriorate.”

This turn of events made Li Yali laugh and cry.

She picked up the soda water and drank it in big gulps, as if to quench the irritability in her heart.

Li Zhaojun stood up suddenly.

An impulse drove her to change the status quo, and she pushed Qing Yun's chair hard, trying to change its direction.

However, the chair was as steady as a rock, and her strength at this moment seemed... insignificant, like an ant trying to shake a tree.

She could only look at Qingyun angrily, her eyes full of stubbornness.

Qingyun looked at Li Yali's actions and felt helpless.

He knew her temper and understood her persistence.

He sighed and turned his chair around.

When he sat down, he was surprised that Li Yali sat directly on his lap with her arms around his neck naturally.

At this moment, Li Zhaojun's eyes were full of cunning, "So, there are no obstacles between us now."

By sitting directly on Qing Yun's lap, an intimate and direct action, Li Yali wanted to eliminate any physical and psychological distance that might exist between the two of them. She believed that doing so would help her face and solve the problems between them.

And she also hoped that through this direct approach, Qingyun would be able to clarify the relationship between them and no longer remain ambiguous. She needed a clear answer.

Frankly speaking, Qing Yun had no idea what to do at this moment.

Not only did she resolve the knot in his heart, but since Qin Manyan had no objection and she was helpful to his career, there was no emotional foundation between the two of them...

He seemed to have no reason to object.

But...how to explain this?

There’s more than just Qin Manyan in the Crystal Palace!

Tang Qianying and Chen Yue don’t have a big problem. They are best friends and they can just turn a blind eye to it.

Zhang Li didn't care either. With her non-competitive personality, it was hard to say no.

The most important thing is Su Daji and Sister Xiaoya, they are both jealous people and are not easy to deal with.

I swore that there were only six, and here comes one more...

Headache!

The warmth of Li Yali's body was transmitted through the clothes in front of him. Her proximity made his heart beat faster involuntarily, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.

The faint fragrance of Li Yali was like the breeze on a spring night, gently brushing across Qingyun's nose, making his senses more acute.

Her hair gently brushed across his cheek as she moved, bringing a tingling sensation.

In this posture of close contact, the two people's breathing intertwined, forming an indescribable ambiguity.

Every gentle breath she exhaled was as fresh as an orchid, blowing directly on Qingyun's neck, stirring ripples deep in his heart.

Otherwise, just give in?

But how can I report back?

Maybe it will get mad.

This is not just about bringing home a kitten or a puppy, it's about bringing home a real person, and an enemy who shares their love.
