It wasn't an apple that hit Newton.

Li Cheng smiled easily.

He looked closely with great delight, only to find that the entire sheet of paper contained only three short lines of text.

They are respectively.

First line: [You really did peek, Mr. Designer~]

Second line: [But don't worry, in two days I'll send another secret letter, the kind with a seal. Don't peek at it then!]

Third line: [By the way, the truly confidential letter also needs to be delivered in person by you~]

Blood pressure ↑↑↑

Li Cheng's smile gradually faded.

After confirming that there were indeed only these three lines of text, he tore the letter to shreds with a blank expression, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the trash can.

There is no longer any need to forge it.

Li Cheng sadly pushed aside the stool he was sitting on, left the room, walked to the sofa in the living room, sat down, and casually picked up the soft little girl and put her cheeks in his arms, pinching them and making all sorts of funny and ridiculous expressions.

Louise's face is bouncy and smooth, like jelly to the touch. Squeezing it when you're in a bad mood is very stress-relieving.

The effect is similar to popping air bubbles on a plastic film, but with a better feel. It's also all-natural, recyclable, green, and pollution-free, and all you need is a cute little girl to help you.

After just a couple of gentle pinches, Li Cheng's mood quickly improved, and his blood pressure gradually returned to normal.

really.

In this cold and desolate Paris.

Only the lovely Louise could bring him a little healing and warmth.

"......elder brother?"

With her face being rubbed and kneaded, Louise's speech became slurred, and she could only utter two words.

Hearing the little girl's questioning tone, Li Cheng paused in his actions: "Does it hurt a lot? Then I won't pinch you anymore."

“That’s not what Louise meant. Louise wanted to ask why her brother was unhappy.”

Louise paused, a blush rising to her cheeks, and said shyly, "If brother wants to play with Louise's body, he can do so anytime..."

There's something odd about this way of putting it.

Li Cheng subtly loosened his grip, and under the little girl's questioning gaze, as if asking, "Don't you want to play a little longer?", he coughed twice and said:

"Ahem, was my displeasure very obvious just now?"

"Ah."

Louise nodded affirmatively, "Brother was so scary just now. He came out of the room with a gloomy face and his footsteps were very heavy as he went straight to Louise. Louise thought that brother was angry with her."

She almost thought that her secret plan with Sister Hook had been exposed and that her brother would come after her, which made her feel weak all over.

The little girl was terrified.

"I'm so sorry, I startled you."

Li Cheng recalled his actions just now and realized that they were indeed a bit frightening: "As compensation, how about I promise Louise one thing—something that isn't too outrageous, and I have the right to request a replacement."

He's been badly burned lately and is worried that the young girl might insist on getting married again, so he added a final right to back out in advance.

Chapter 331 Not a minute can be wasted

Upon hearing that she could have one of her small wishes granted, Louise was initially delighted, but then became somewhat hesitant.

Logically speaking, this is the best opportunity to do bad things.

After all, according to Hook's sister, it would be very easy to simply get her brother drunk.

[If you tamper with the drink a little, then serve it to that guy and act cute, that perverted lolicon will most likely drink it without a second thought.]

Therefore, the key is to find a suitable place, time, and occasion so that he won't be suspected after he sobers up.

This is what Hook's sister said at the time.

The problem is that Hook's sister hasn't discussed the specifics of how to do it with her yet. With the limited abilities of this clumsy little girl, she can't think of a way to make the most of this wish and is afraid of wasting this opportunity.

what to do......

Louise sighed sadly.

It makes me happy to be able to fulfill a small wish.

I'm also very happy to have a kind older sister who helps me with advice.

Why does the combination of two joys turn into sorrow? Is this the trouble of happiness?

Li Cheng waited for a long time without any movement. He glanced down and noticed that Louise was gazing into the distance with a worried look in her eyes. Her fingers were unconsciously playing with her hair, and even her legs were swaying back and forth restlessly, showing that she was preoccupied with something.

"what happened?"

He asked, puzzled.

"No, it's nothing."

Louise snapped out of her thoughts about how to do something bad and shook her head in a slightly flustered manner.

It didn't seem like anything was wrong at all... Li Cheng stared at the little girl's face for a full three minutes, until beads of nervous sweat began to appear on her forehead, before finally giving up on asking further questions.

As an older brother, you shouldn't pry too much into your younger sister's privacy.

After all, everyone has their own secrets when they are young. Li Cheng is very disgusted by the behavior of parents who pry into things – who doesn't have some little secrets they can't tell others?

So he gave up on pressing the issue and instead asked, "If nothing's wrong, then so what is your wish?"

"Louise hasn't decided yet, so can we wait a while until she decides what her wish is before telling her brother?"

Louise breathed a sigh of relief and gave the answer she had just thought of.

She felt a mix of relief and slight guilt.

Fortunately, her brother didn't press her further. If he had, she worried that she might not be able to keep the secret and would expose Sister Hook. She felt guilty because her brother trusted her so much, yet she was plotting to do something bad to him.

"sure."

Li Cheng saw no problem with it and agreed.

But after thinking for a moment, he added, "But you'd better think it over quickly. I'm leaving in two days. If you want to go somewhere, you'd better hurry, or you'll run out of time."

It's time to go. If you think about it carefully, Li Cheng has been away for two whole months.

Although it was much shorter than originally expected, both he and his girlfriend at home missed each other very much after being away for so long. Even ordinary people can develop feelings for their school after a two-month vacation, let alone someone they already liked.

It is known that ordinary people will feel homesick after not going to school for two months.

It can be concluded that Li Cheng's affection for his girlfriend is greater than that of an average person for their school.

Conclusion: Li Cheng and his girlfriend are currently in a state of mutual longing.

The verification process is now complete.

Li Cheng pushed up the non-existent lenses on his nose, pretending he was wearing a white coat, explaining the correctness and scientific basis of longing to his science-oriented girlfriend, and persuading her to give him a hug.

However, Louise seems a bit slow, so if she goes to school, she can only be a liberal arts student (no offense to liberal arts students)... Oh no, she could also be an art student (no offense to art students).

Forget about athletes (no offense to athletes), getting too muscular isn't attractive. Although a few people's XP systems are compatible with women with six-pack abs, Li Chengshi finds it a bit hard to accept.

Li Cheng was lost in thought for a while when he suddenly remembered that he had promised Louise a wish.

So he smiled and asked, "Would Louise like to come to my house for a while? Consider it fulfilling that wish you just made."

Louise was almost tempted and nearly nodded in agreement immediately.

But at that moment, the scenes that Hook had described to her suddenly appeared before her eyes.

Bullying, isolation, being disliked, neglected, verbally abused, physically assaulted, divorce...

The little girl shuddered and shook her head firmly: "No, thank you."

“No need? That’s fine. It’s really not safe to travel far.” Li Cheng said with a smile. “Besides, it’s not like I’m not coming back. I’ll need to come to Paris again soon.”

"Hey, is my brother going back to Paris soon?"

Louise smiled with delight.

That way, perhaps she wouldn't have to rush into doing something bad, and perhaps she could even consider Hook's sister's best solution...

"Yes, I'll be bringing a few more people with me."

Li Cheng smacked his lips and added, "One of them is even Newton's sister, whom you know."

The most critical issues have been basically resolved. Compared to the miserable business trip alone, isn't it wonderful to bring a large group of people to Paris for a vacation?

!!!

Louise's smile gradually faded.

Not a minute can be wasted!

The little girl made up her mind, broke free from Li Cheng's embrace, and rushed out of the courtyard with her short legs without saying goodbye. She then crossed the street and returned to her home, which was just across the street.

As soon as she got home, Louise grabbed her maid, her face filled with anxiety, and said:

"Misha, Louise is going out!"

And so, accompanied by the clear sound of hooves, a carriage carrying Louise headed toward Iris Street, where Hook lived.

To avoid being seen by Li Cheng's informants, Hook had already given Louise his address and told her that she could write to him anytime if she had any questions.

If there's anything you really don't understand, you can come to her home and ask her in person (provided you don't bring a man with you).

Although Hook is at home today, he is catching up on sleep.

Yesterday, she went to the Paris Observatory and stayed up all night with Halley to look at the stars. Then, she spent the whole morning working with the still energetic Halley to organize and calculate the data, working through the night.

Sisters' rice bowl is delicious.

But he must not forget his legal wife (even though their relationship is still far from being established).

After successfully gaining some goodwill, Hook finally managed to get home and lie down for a nap. He was sound asleep when someone knocked on the door and woke him up. The person's face was incredibly sinister and terrifying...

A murderous glare + dark circles under the eyes from staying up all night + a deathly pale complexion...

If it had been Li Cheng instead of Louise knocking on the door, Hook might not have been able to control his urge to commit euthanasia.

But when he saw Louise looking anxious, Hook's expression softened slightly.
