Jiang Li moved closer, until their lips were about to touch. Jiang Chuyue's shoulders trembled, "You, you, you...get away!"
"I'll give you one more chance to speak properly."
Jiang Li looked at her with a smile. One second, two seconds passed. Jiang Chuyue hurriedly changed her words, "Please, please... No, don't kiss me."
Jiang Li looked at her frightened look like a little deer, and his mood suddenly improved a lot. He laughed heartlessly again, then reached out and pinched her face, pulling her face into all kinds of cute and funny shapes, and then let go.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I estimate that you will be able to walk in less than a month. Fifteen days later, your brother will take you back home."
"You...will not accompany me anymore?"
"Are you a puppy? You need someone to accompany you." Jiang Li was too lazy to pay attention to her and threw half a play script to her, "To help you pass the time."
Chapter 100: Chapter Lies
The morning mist filled the air.
When Jiang Li woke up, the fog had not yet dissipated. He stood by the fence of the attic, looking at the fog and the hazy mountains in the distance. He took out his easel, sat in the corridor and painted a picture of peaks in the fog.
When Jiang Chuyue opened the door, Jiang Li had just finished painting. She pushed her wheelchair closer and her tone became a little strange, "Did you paint this?"
Jiang Li rolled up the scroll casually, but was too lazy to answer Jiang Chuyue's question. He just asked, "What do you want to eat in the morning?"
Jiang Chuyue thought about it carefully for a long time, and then said, "Wonton."
....................................
After half an hour, Jiang Chuyue looked at the two plates of dumplings on the table and widened her eyes slightly, "You call this wonton?"
"I'm just asking for your opinion. I didn't say I would listen to it." Jiang Li picked up a dumpling without changing his expression, dipped the chopsticks in vinegar, and then took a bite.
The dumpling's filling was also filled with soup, which was delicious and rich, but a little hot. Jiang Li was very happy eating it. Jiang Chuyue was afraid of the heat, so she carefully poked a hole in it with chopsticks, and waited until it cooled down a lot before eating it in small bites. She had a reluctant expression on her face, but after taking the first bite, she smiled.
Jiang Li cooked a total of twenty-four dumplings, twelve for each person, but Jiang Chuyue ate too slowly. She hadn't finished eating before Jiang Li had finished. So Jiang Li reached his chopsticks into Jiang Chuyue's bowl, picked up her dumplings in front of her, dipped them in vinegar, and then bit off with a satisfied expression.
"this is mine!"
"You looked so reluctant just now, and you ate so slowly, that means you don't like it. If you don't like it, I'll help you eat two."
Jiang Chuyue was furious for a moment, but she didn't have time to argue with Jiang Li, because Jiang Li's chopsticks had reached into her bowl again. She brought the plate in front of her like a puppy guarding its food, "I'm not full yet..."
Before she finished speaking, Jiang Li burped and put down his chopsticks with a smile.
"I am full."
................................................
When he didn't need to conquer women, Jiang Li felt that his life could be very regular, and he would set aside four hours every day to draw formations and talismans. But when you think about the past four years, his life didn't seem to be regular. On the contrary, recently, his life has become very leisurely.
But Jiang Li felt that his plan should not be put on hold. There were still more than 30 women in his notebook that he had not yet seduced. However, he was busy with trivial matters at the moment and had no time, so he had to draw the talisman paper here.
Jiang Chuyue returned to her room and read with great interest the half of the script that Jiang Li had given her.
Until she suddenly felt a suffocating breath that permeated the entire bamboo building for a moment. At that moment, her hair stood up, her heartbeat slowed down, the blood in her body seemed to solidify, and her teeth couldn't help but chatter.
This feeling was particularly terrifying, as if someone had already cut her back with a sword and was about to pull out her spine.
Fortunately, this feeling only lasted for a few seconds and disappeared in an instant. The script in her hand fell to the ground, and she fell into the wheelchair as if exhausted. It took her a long time to come to her senses. She pushed the wheelchair out of the room and began to call Jiang Li's name.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Li's indifferent voice fell into her ears.
"Did you... feel anything just now?" She looked at Jiang Li tremblingly, and Jiang Li was slowly putting a piece of talisman paper he had just drawn into his pocket. He smiled apologetically at Jiang Chuyue and said, "I was just drawing a talisman. I'm fine now."
"What kind of talisman did you draw?" Jiang Chuyue widened her eyes.
"A secret." Jiang Li's expression looked like he deserved a beating.
Jiang Chuyue wanted to ask more questions, but he blocked her all the questions. She had no choice but to push her wheelchair back to her room in a depressed mood. She used her spiritual power to pick up the half-written script and continued to read it. At noon, she smelled the aroma of dishes.
It was Jiang Li cooking in the kitchen downstairs.
She pushed the wheelchair downstairs and looked at Jiang Li in the kitchen. He was wearing an apron and was carefully flipping the dishes in the pot.
Jiang Chuyue suddenly felt that Jiang Li was quite good-looking.
She couldn't tell what was so good about him, because her brother was also very handsome, so she was naturally immune to good-looking men. But Jiang Li was completely different from his brother. There was always an inexplicable temperament in him, a bit like a frustrated scholar, but most of the time he was particularly frivolous, unreasonable and domineering, but inexplicably not annoying.
Today's lunch consisted of two dishes and a soup. Jiang Li served her some rice. This time Jiang Chuyue ate very quickly. Jiang Li couldn't help laughing, "I was very full this morning. I won't compete with you for it."
Jiang Chuyue's earlobes turned pink because of what he said, and her eating speed also slowed down a lot.
After they had lunch together, Jiang Li moved his recliner to the edge of his garden and began to bask in the afternoon sun. Jiang Chuyue pushed the wheelchair slowly to his side and asked, "Why did you say... that brother would never marry Mu Bingning?"
"Because I will also participate in the martial arts competition to win a bride at that time." Jiang Li said lightly.
Jiang Chuyue was startled for a few seconds, then she said, "Brother's sword is very powerful. You were in such a mess that day, be careful that you might be..."
Jiang Li came closer, and said in a slightly flattering voice, "Then can you persuade your brother to be gentler when the time comes?"
Jiang Chuyue thought about it seriously and said, "It's not impossible, but you have to..."
"If you have conditions, then just shut up." Jiang Li's flattery just now disappeared in an instant, and there was still a bit of disgust in his eyes. Jiang Chuyue suddenly felt a little wronged.
Why is this guy so annoying!
"I will find a way when the time comes."
"Are you planning to marry Mu Bingning?"
"Ah... that's right."
"What about Sister Bai Sheng?"
"Ah, she and Mu Bingning are good friends, she shouldn't be angry."
Jiang Chuyue wondered what kind of logic this was.
Jiang Li also began to feel troubled at this moment. He was wondering whether he should tell Bai Sheng about this. However, Bai Sheng and Mu Bingning were good friends. If he told Bai Sheng, he would make Mu Bingning fall in love with him and then abandon her after three months. Then, as a middleman, should Bai Sheng tell Mu Bingning?
If Bai Sheng knew the truth, it would be very painful for her heart. But if she didn't tell Bai Sheng, there would inevitably be a lot of troubles, Jiang Li suddenly felt distressed.
If you want to tell a lie, you will need countless lies to cover it up. Jiang Li began to seriously think about how to explain it to Bai Sheng, and he thought about it for a long time.
Jiang Chuyue finished reading half of the script, then returned it to him and opened her hands to ask him for the second half.
Jiang Li replied calmly, "No."
"No?!"
Jiang Chuyue's eyes widened, but Jiang Li said innocently, "I bought this half of the book when I first came down the mountain. I don't even know where it came from. I didn't buy the second half either."
Jiang Chuyue was so angry that her teeth itched, "Then why did you show it to me?"
"Because it's fun to see you so angry now." Jiang Li replied with a smile.
Jiang Chuyue always felt that Jiang Li would make her go crazy many times a day, but Jiang Li didn't care. Instead, he got up and caught the butterfly flying in his garden. He pinched the butterfly's wings and held it high. The butterfly's wings shone brightly in the sunlight.
He looked at it seriously for a while, then laughed, and then reached out his hand to let the butterfly fly away.
Jiang Chuyue stared blankly at the reward in front of her. She always felt that the man with the gentle smile at this moment and the Jiang Xiaoli with the mean look on his face just now were not the same person at all!
“Are these the flowers you planted?”
"Yes."
"I like that one." Jiang Chuyue pointed to the lush white roses in Jiang Li's garden. Jiang Li said "oh" and nodded.
Seeing that he was unmoved, Jiang Chuyue gritted her teeth in her heart.
An unromantic man!
"Can you pick it and put it in my room?" She finally asked herself, her voice much softer and with a hint of coquettishness.
But Jiang Li was not moved at all. Instead, he tilted his head and looked at her, "You like a flower? Do you have to pick it?"
Jiang Chuyue was speechless.
"The flower was in full bloom and could have lived for a long time, but you insisted on picking it and putting it in your porcelain vase. In the end, it only had a few days left to live, and you did this just to satisfy your own selfish desires. You selfish woman, huh!"
Jiang Chuyue had no way to refute Jiang Li. She hesitated for a long time without uttering a single word. This was probably because she was being argued too hard and her mind was confused. She had no way to respond to Jiang Li's accusations, but Jiang Li stood up, walked to the roses, and picked two.
Jiang Chuyue was stunned and looked at him blankly.
Jiang Li turned around and said, "Just stay here, I'll be back in the evening."
"Where are you going?"
"Go give flowers to a woman."
Jiang Chuyue watched his back gradually disappearing into the distance, and was so angry that she was speechless.
..........................................
Jiang Li was going to see Mu Xuezhi.
In fact, he didn't want to see this woman again, because he felt that Mu Xuezhi was a bit disgusting, but there was no other way, he had to ask Mu Xuezhi for a favor, so he found another porcelain vase, put the two white roses in it, and then came to the top of Hanyuan Mountain. This time, the door was opened before he knocked.
Mu Xuezhi was standing beside the wooden rack in the courtyard, on which were placed the clear snow orchids and fragrant lilies that Jiang Li had given her last time. She was wearing a white palace dress, her hair casually scattered, her snow-white face was not made up, but she was already the most beautiful woman in the world.
Jiang Li looked at her indifferent eyes and suddenly felt that he was no longer afraid to look into such eyes. This woman looked otherworldly, like a banished angel from heaven, but her heart was filthy and selfish.
"What do you want from me?"
"I want to ask a favor from the Sect Master."
"You said."
"I hope that the sect master will keep this Blazing Fire Spiritual Ginseng for me as a reward for the top winner. I will trouble you to personally arrange a marriage for me. If I show some reluctance at that time, I hope that the sect master will understand."
Mu Xuezhi was fiddling with the orchid. She raised her eyes slightly and said, "It will make Bingning unhappy. Have you forgotten that I told you to make Bingning fall in love with you?"
"My reluctance is justified because I want her to fall in love with me. This is part of my strategy. I hope you understand."
Jiang Li answered with lowered eyebrows.
Chapter 101: Chapter Draw a circle and curse you
There was a hint of doubt in Mu Xuezhi's eyes, but she did not ask any further questions.
"Then it's up to you." Mu Xuezhi nodded.
Jiang Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The request he had just made was actually only one of the reasons. Another reason was to make it easier for him to explain to Bai Sheng that he participated in this martial arts competition just for the Fiery Spirit Ginseng. Then everything would make sense. Mu Xuezhi would personally arrange the marriage for him, and he could not disobey the sect master's order. Everything that followed would be reasonable.
This was the conclusion Jiang Li came to after thinking for a while, but he suddenly felt that he had changed a lot during this period of time. He began to think seriously, if Bai Sheng was replaced by another woman, would he still think of such a troublesome lie?
After thinking about it, he still couldn't find an answer, although he really wanted to ask himself, was he really in love with Bai Sheng?
But probably no one can answer this question.
"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing." Jiang Li then remembered Ye Linglong's request, "The last time I went to Fengling Yueying Sect, Ye Linglong from Yueying Sect also wanted to participate in this martial arts competition, so she asked me to ask the sect master what he thought?"
Mu Xuezhi glanced at him calmly and said, "Okay."
Jiang Li felt a headache coming on.
He saw with his own eyes that Ye Linglong defeated Ye Guixu last time, and he had not prepared anything to fight with Ye Linglong, but he agreed to it at that time, and he had to do what he promised.
This morning he had just made a sword talisman that sealed his own sword power, which consumed a lot of his spirit and energy. It could be considered a trump card, but it seemed a bit of a waste to use it on Ye Linglong.
Why not discuss with Ye Linglong in advance and not really mess things up? I guess she was just talking at the beginning. Although the two siblings look weird, they are probably good people.
At this moment, both matters were explained. Jiang Li placed the white roses in the porcelain vase on the wooden shelf and bowed respectfully to Mu Xuezhi. "I have finished what I wanted to say, and I will take my leave now."
Mu Xuezhi did not nod. Jiang Li thought he agreed, so he turned around. But the next second, Mu Xuezhi's lips moved slightly, "Stop."
Jiang Li stopped and looked at Mu Xuezhi in front of him, "What's wrong?"
Mu Xuezhi's eyes fell on the white rose in front of her. After a moment, she turned to look at Jiang Li. Jiang Li heard her say lightly, "You seem dissatisfied with me."
"How could that be?" Jiang Li looked at her innocently.
"You are dissatisfied with the arrangement I made for Mu Bingning, right?" Mu Xuezhi asked softly.
Jiang Li had the impression that he didn't deliberately show too much emotion, but this was also obvious, so he nodded, "That's right."
