"Sit down, I'm going to help my mom cook."
Lin Yuqing brought out a fruit platter, called out, and went into the kitchen.
Li Xu picked up the apple on the table and took a big bite. He sat on the sofa with his legs crossed and picked up the remote control to change channels.
A figure moved beside him. Li Jiu turned around and saw Father Lin sitting beside him with a book in his hand.
Li Jiu hurriedly crossed his legs and stood up to pass the apple in his hand to her.
"Uncle, please eat the apple."
In the end, Li Jiu forgot that he had taken a big bite out of the apple in his hand. On the bright red apple, there was a big bite mark that told Father Lin how neat Li Jiu's teeth were.
Lin Yuqing's father glanced at the apple in Li Xu's hand. "You eat it."
Li Xu looked at the apple in his hand and reacted. He took his hand back. "Um, I'll peel another one for you."
His father's face was serious, but his tone was very polite. "No need, you are a guest. I should be the one to take care of you. You can do as you please."
Li Xu sat up straight and pretended to watch the TV.
Lin Yuqing helped her mother prepare lunch. Li Xu sat on the sofa and watched the New Year's Gala on the TV.
From the living room, Lin Yuqing's slender figure appeared and disappeared in the kitchen. Li Xu remembered the scene of him and his aunt preparing the gift last night.
"Say what you want to say and then play a piano piece. This kind of gift is guaranteed to be very special."
"What should I say?"
Lin Wansu was helpless. "Up to you. Say whatever you want."
"Then can I say 'hello'?"
Lin Wansu poked Li Xu's head with her index finger. "Are you stupid?"
"Giving a girl a gift and you say 'hello'? Are you stupid?"
Li Xu mumbled. His usual glib tongue was nowhere to be found.
Lin Wansu raised her eyebrows. "Are you really just friends with Lin Yuqing?"
"Yes."
"Do you like that Lin Yuqing? I'm not asking about your relationship, but whether you like her or not. "
Li Ge had also asked this question. At that time, Li Xu's reply to him was, "It's none of your business."
Of course, he couldn't say the same to Lin Wansu.
Li Xu said seriously, "I like it."
Feelings could not lie. Li Xu knew his own feelings very well.
He had already forgotten when he started to like Lin Yuqing.
But everything happened so naturally.
To this day, he still remembered the pair of waving hands in the stadium when he first appeared, amidst the boos that filled the sky.
When he complained, Lin Yuqing always listened attentively.
As he rambled on, Lin Yuqing didn't interrupt him.
Just as his mind was about to explode, Lin Yuqing stuffed her lot into his hand.
There was also the "Book of Sand" that had been glued together with transparent tape.
Although the book wasn't thick, it was still over 60 pages. It was practically torn to shreds. Lin Yuqing had carefully glued it together page by page.
"Here."
Perhaps, when Lin Yuqing had glued the book together and stuffed it into his hand, he had already fallen in love with this introverted girl.
In his eyes, Lin Yuqing was beautiful, gentle, kind, generous, and virtuous.
Li Xu saw all the good qualities of a woman in her.
Unfortunately, although he pretended to be an expert in love in front of Brother Li, he was actually just a rookie.
"Since you like her, why don't you pursue her? You don't seem like a shy person. "Lin Wansu found it interesting.
"But, I seem to have feelings for someone else."
Li Xu felt very guilty. His mind was a mess. Recently, he had been very troubled.
Ever since Lin Yuqing asked him about Kim Minna on the plane, he realized that Kim Minna wasn't just a pure friend in his heart.
Lin Wansu: "Haha! You're really a scumbag. "
"Auntie! Whose side are you on? "Li Xu was indignant.
"Okay, okay. Who hasn't loved a few scumbags when they were young?"
Li Xu lowered his head and sulked. He didn't speak.
Lin Wansu found it interesting. "I'm just kidding. It's your right to like others. You didn't lie to them. Besides, maybe you're thinking too much? Maybe they don't like you. "
What you said makes sense. I actually have nothing to say.
"If you had to choose one to be your wife, who would you choose?"
Li Xu hesitated. "Should be Lin Yuqing?"
"Then what's Lin Yuqing's attitude towards you?"
Li Xu was very hesitant. "I've known Lin Yuqing for more than four years, but I still don't know her that well. Lin Yuqing's personality is very introverted. I don't know how she feels about me."
"Then that's it! What kind of relationship do you want with Lin Yuqing? Think about it carefully. "
Lin Wansu shook the music box in her hand and sat in front of the piano.
"Ready. Now what do you want to say? Say what you want to say."
Lin Wansu pressed record. Li Xu took a deep breath. "Lin Yuqing, thank you for taking care of me in the past year. Please take care of me in the future."

During dinner, Li Xu finally tasted Mother Lin's cooking. He had to admit that it was very good. The color, smell, and taste were excellent.
Li Xu kept praising Mother Lin's culinary skills, making Mother Lin smile.
After dinner, they sat for a while before Li Xu got up and said goodbye.
Lin Yuqing's father gave him too much pressure. Li Xu had never met such a serious person before.
Why am I so afraid of this stern-faced old man?
Mother Lin tried her best to persuade him to stay. Li Xu repeatedly said that he would be thick-skinned next time. Lin Yuqing also saw Li Xu's uneasiness and sent Li Xu downstairs.
"Lin Yuqing, when are you going back to Seoul?"
"Should be around the end of February."
"Oh. Then we can't go together."
Li Xu was a bit regretful. The next round of LCK was on February 13th, so he had to go back early.
"Does your father think that we have that kind of relationship?"
Lin Yuqing rolled her eyes. "What are you thinking? I had already told them that you are my student. "
"Then why is your father acting like I am going to steal his daughter?" Li Xu stiffened his neck. "Also, that was in the past. I have already graduated."
Li Xu raised his pinky finger. "You are only slightly older than me."
Lin Yuqing felt helpless towards Li Xu's childish actions.
"It's not about you. My father has always been like this since I was young."
"Seems like my father is more approachable."
Li Xu started to praise Li Dongsheng.
"Erm … …" Li Xu looked around and wanted to say something.
"Huh?"
"Erm … … The weather is good today."
"Haha!"
Li Xu made up his mind. "Actually, that's not what I want to say. Lin Yuqing, I … …"
"Don't move."
Lin Yuqing reached out and tidied up Li Xu's slightly messy collar gently.
"Get along well with your teammates. Don't sleep too much next time. You will delay a lot of things. I won't send you off when you leave."
After Lin Yuqing finished speaking, she turned and went upstairs.
Li Xu stood there in a daze.
Does this count as my confession being rejected?
But I didn't say anything!

When Li Jiu reached home, he went straight to his bedroom and lay on the bed.
Lin Wansu followed him in and sat beside him. "Xiao Xu, what happened to you?"
Li Xu buried his head and said in a muffled voice.
"Don't mind me. I am trash."
