When s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ heard that comment, she took no offence and patted Li Jianyue’s shoulders as she asked, “So, Little Sister, can you tell me what kind of girl your brother likes?”
A huge grin bloomed on s.h.i.+s.h.i.+’s face as she asked this; her red lips, in particular, were eye-catching.
Li Jianyue was silent for a moment before replying, “I don’t know what kind of girl Brother Mosen likes but I know what kind he dislikes.”
“What kind does he dislike then?”
“Haphazardly-dressed girls,” Li Jianyue stated as she glanced at her unb.u.t.toned collar.
The girl’s body wasn’t even fully developed yet and she was already displaying it for all to see. It was indeed quite unsightly.
When s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ heard this, she immediately b.u.t.toned her collar and asked, “What else?”
“Girls with heavy makeup,” Li Jianyue said mercilessly.
s.h.i.+s.h.i.+’s expression changed immediately as she asked, “Are you serious?”
Li Jianyue nodded her head somberly and sincerely. “Very,” she answered.
s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ looked a little defeated. “What else?” she asked.
“Girls who dye their hair.”
s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ lost her temper and screeched, “You’re baiting me on purpose, aren’t you?”
Li Jianyue looked at her innocently and calmly replied, “Not at all. Everything I said is the truth. If you don’t believe me, you can always ask Brother Mosen yourself.”
s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was speechless.
It was because of the fact that she never had the chance nor dared to speak to Mosen that she had to corner Li Jianyue in the restroom!
“Is there anything else?” s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ asked.
Li Jianyue thought for a moment, before responding, “He probably likes girls who are gentle. After all, there’s no guy who will dislike a gentle female.”
s.h.i.+s.h.i.+’s face fell and she looked like she was about to cry as she looked at Li Jianyue.
Li Jianyue was taken aback and hurriedly said, “Please don’t cry! Truthfully, you just need to be yourself. You have your own special qualities, and there will be others who will like you for that. It’s useless to deliberately change yourself to suit someone else’s tastes.”
s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ didn’t seem to believe her. “Really?” she asked.
“Really,” Li Jianyue answered sincerely.
…
After exiting the washroom, Li Jianyue returned to the cla.s.sroom to retrieve her schoolbag, most of her cla.s.smates on cleaning duty were done with their ch.o.r.es.
When one of the boys spotted Li Jianyue, he approached her to introduce himself. The tips of his ears were a little red as he said, “h.e.l.lo, I’m Jiang Hao. You’re Li Jianyue, aren’t you?”
Li Jianyue smiled. “Yeah! h.e.l.lo.”
“Ersu!” Li Mosen’s voice suddenly rang out from the corridor, and a few girls were following behind him, nudging each other bashfully.
Li Jianyue spotted Li Mosen and said to Jiang Hao, “My brother is here to pick me up! I’m going home. See you tomorrow!”
Jiang Hao blushed as he nodded his head. “Alright! See you tomorrow!”
Li Jianyue took her school bag and headed out, only to find an extremely sour expression on Li Mosen’s face.
Li Mosen reached his hand out and trapped her under his armpit. Then, he proceeded to pick her up as if she were a little chicken, and said “You’re getting pretty capable. I thought you’d gotten lost.”
Li Jianyue had long grown accustomed to his method of carrying her. However, they were in school and so, she couldn’t help but blush. As her legs flailed in the air, she protested, “I’m wearing a skirt! I don’t want anything exposed!”
Upon hearing that, Li Mosen put her down and placed his big hand atop her head. “Don’t randomly talk to male cla.s.smates in future. Many of them are simply out to cheat on girls. Given how stupid you are, I don’t want you getting taken for a ride.”
“d.a.m.n you!” Li Jianyue smacked his hand away. “Why are you so annoying? My brother doesn’t even nag at me, why are you doing it? You’re the stupid one!”
Li Mosen smiled and broke out laughing. With his arm around her affectionately, they walked out. He then replied, “Fine, I’m the stupid one. Let’s go home.”
