He doesn't have good intentions!
It was not that Li Muyang had the ability to see through a person's heart, but deep down in his heart he felt that there was no reason for such a handsome and elegant Gongzi to take the initiative to strike up a conversation with a nobody, right?
He must have some ulterior motives.
Look, Li Muyang classmate is such a humble and lovable little boy with an inferiority complex.
Li Muyang stared wide-eyed at him, he was wearing a black satin gown, waving a folding fan, and his face had a very amiable smile.
Li Muyang immediately liked him and said: "I don't think so."
Yan Xiangma's expression froze for a moment, then with a 'puff' sound he put away the paper fan, placed it on the palm of his hand and gently patted it. He looked at Li Muyang with great interest and said: "The more you read, the wider your horizons, the bigger your heart, the more you want, the more greedy people become — – if that's the case, isn't that a very dangerous thing?"
"Reading can also be used to understand the law, to respect virtue, and to cultivate righteousness." Li Muyang retorted. "Why is there endless killing in the savage land? Why is there endless war at the border of the desert? It's because the barbarians and shepherds read too little, they have no way to understand the law and respect virtue. If they all read books, where would they have the time to fight and kill? "
Yan Xiangma shook his head, thoughtfully looked at Li Muyang and said: "That's not right."
"What's not right?"
"I've asked people to inquire, they all say you're a fool." Yan Xiangma shook his head and said: "But I don't think you're stupid. On the contrary, you're smarter than a lot of people I've met. "
"I'm a fool." Li Muyang said. "Every time I take an exam, I'm the last in the school."
"No no no, there must be other reasons." Yan Xiangma denied Li Muyang's foolish assertion that he was a fool. "But smart people are good, I like to communicate with smart people. Smart people are sensible and sensible, don't you think? "
Li Muyang knew that he had finally entered the main topic. He casually flipped through a book in his hand, "Theory of Strengthening Armies," and said, "That depends on what it is and what it is."
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself — –" Yan Xiangma snapped open his folding fan and said to Li Muyang: "Yan Xiangma, Cui Xiaoxin's cousin."
Li Muyang suddenly became enthusiastic. He closed the book in his hand and said respectfully, "Cousin, it's you? Come, come, come with me to my house to drink tea, my house is just in front of the alley, just a few steps away — – "
With that, she grabbed Yan Xiangma's sleeve and prepared to go home.
"Wait wait wait — –" Yan Xiangma shook off Li Muyang's black hand and said angrily: "What are you doing? Who's so familiar with you? "
"Cousin, you don't know, Cui Xiaoxin and I are classmates and also very good friends. Cui Xiaoxin's cousin is also my cousin. Since cousin is already at our doorstep, if I don't invite you back for a cup of tea, Xiaoxin will be angry, my parents will also blame me for not understanding etiquette — – Cousin, come back with me. It's hot here, there's watermelon chilled with well water at home to quench your thirst. "
As he spoke, Li Muyang once again reached out to pull Yan Xiangma's wrist.
"Presumptuous." Yan Xiangma said anxiously: "I'm telling you, don't touch me, I hate people pulling my clothes — -Let me go, I'm asking you to let me go — –"
Li family. Li Muyang and Yan Xiangma were sitting under a grape tree in the courtyard eating watermelon.
The watermelon had been soaked in cold water from a deep well for several hours, it was cold from the inside to the outside. In this hot and dry summer, eating it made people feel as if every hair on their body was standing up.
Yan Xiangma ate three large pieces of watermelon in one breath, when Li Muyang brought over the fourth piece, he finally waved his hand, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his mouth, saying: "I'm not eating anymore, my stomach will explode."
Li Muyang also ate three pieces of watermelon, but he did not have the habit of carrying a handkerchief with him, so he could only fetch a bucket of well water to wash his hands.
Li Muyang did not make tea, drinking hot tea immediately after eating a frozen watermelon is not good for the body.
He sat on the stone bench opposite Yan Xiangma and said with a smile: "Cousin, why are you in Hubu Alley? Is there something you need to deal with? "
"No, I came for you." Yan Xiangma said with a satisfied expression. He was very satisfied with Li Muyang's watermelon, he had never eaten such a sweet watermelon at home.
"Cousin, why are you looking for me?" Li Muyang asked.
Yan Xiangma took out a box from his pocket and handed it over. Li Muyang did not take it and asked: "What is this?"
Yan Xiangma put the box on the stone table and gently pushed it in the direction where Li Muyang was sitting, saying: "Open it and take a look."
Li Muyang did not reach out to touch the exquisite classical box, he smiled and shook his head, saying: "I did not do anything to deserve a reward. This is my first time meeting cousin, I don't understand why cousin would give me such a big gift?"
"I was entrusted by my mother to thank you for saving my cousin," Yan Xiangma said with a smile. He was very surprised that Li Muyang did not touch the jewelry he gave him, not even opening it to take a look. He looked around the Li family, although they do not look poor, they are definitely not rich. Their family runs a small bakery, which can only support their family's basic living expenses. Children who grow up in this kind of family, do they not have an unimaginable thirst for money and other things?
"Cousin was attacked in the coffee shop, it was thanks to Muyang classmate's help. If you did not stop the assassin for a moment, the servants would not have been able to arrive in time to save her — -Our family does not have the habit of owing people things. Therefore, please accept this humble gift. "
Li Muyang shook his head and said: "Cousin said so, then I can't accept this gift."
Yan Xiangma gently waved his fan and said: "Oh? What's the reason? Tell me. "
"It's true that Xiaoxin classmate is your cousin, but she's also my classmate and friend. The reason why we appeared in the coffee shop was because Xiaoxin classmate stood up for me when I was being bullied, she angrily left the school with me. "
"Moreover, what we discussed at the coffee shop was also for the sake of my tutoring. The university entrance examinations are approaching, at such a critical moment, Xiaoxin was willing to put aside her revision to help me with my lessons, I will remember this kindness for a lifetime — – "
"At that time the assassin attacked, it happened suddenly, I did not have any time to prepare. However, whether it's as Xiaoxin's classmate and friend, or as her only male companion, at that time I have the responsibility and obligation to rush forward to protect her. So, I can't accept this gift, I just did what I should do. "
Yan Xiangma's face carried a gentle smile, his eyes unblinking as he stared at Li Muyang's eyes.
When he said these words, his eyes did not avoid eye contact, nor did he have the slightest bit of timidity or guilt. If this person is not an evil person who is good at hiding, then this proves that what he said was indeed what he was thinking.
"Listening to what you said, I think this gift is too vulgar, too vulgar." Yan Xiangma shook his head and sighed.
"Cousin, you can't say that." Li Muyang hurriedly stopped him and said: "Cousin, you're obviously from a wealthy family, a wealthy family has their own rules and arrogance. You sent me a generous gift to thank me, this is how you repay my kindness. But from my standpoint, I can't accept this gift. "
"Well. If you don't accept it then don't accept it. "Yan Xiangma took the box back and tucked it into his arms. "Then, let's continue to talk about the next matter."
"Cousin, please speak."
"I just saw you buying books at the bookstore, how's your revision?" Yan Xiangma asked with a smile on his face. He always smiles, and his smile is very good-looking. It's easy for people to have a good impression of him.
"I'm working hard." Li Muyang seriously replied: "The more I master, the more hope I have."
"You didn't answer my question." Yan Xiangma said. "Then I'll change to a more direct way of asking — -Do you think you have any hope of entering a famous school?"
"I'm doing my best. As for whether I can enter a famous school or not, that's up to the heavens. "
"It's too unsafe. It's too unsafe. From your tone, I'm afraid you don't have much confidence in being admitted. I've checked your results, a famous school is really too far for you. "Yan Xiangma looked at Li Muyang with a sincere face and said:" How about this? I'll give you a notice of admission to a famous school, are you willing to accept it? "
Li Muyang's long eyelashes blinked and asked: "Is this true?"
"Of course. Go ask around, when have I, Yan Xiangma, ever lied? "
"What do I need to pay?"
"I don't need to pay anything."
"Then I'll thank cousin first." Li Muyang said happily: "Can you guarantee my admission to Westwind University?"
Yan Xiangma's face finally sank, this was the first time he showed such a stern expression in front of Li Muyang.
"Not good." Yan Xiangma said in a cold voice. "First, it's impossible for you to go to Westwind University, for your safety, I advise you not to go to Tiandu. Tiandu's rice is expensive, I'm afraid you won't be able to feed yourself there. Second, I can help you get an admission notice from Jiangnan University, Jiangnan University's specialization can also be chosen by you — – Jiangnan University is also one of the top universities in the kingdom, I also graduated from Jiangnan. Surely you won't dislike this, right? "
"But — –" Yan Xiangma stared at Li Muyang with a burning gaze and said: "Since you're already guaranteed admission to Jiangnan University, then there's no need for cousin to waste time and effort to tutor you, right?"
