The Exiled Life of the Noble Girl

Chapter 82

When Li Mingwei carried the chicken soup to the medical hall, Tang Jue and the other two were also squeezing in there, chirping away, not knowing what they were talking about, but it looked like Liu Yizhu should have recovered. She took a look at the still hot soup in her hand, but still lifted the curtain.

The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked over. Li Mingwei stopped, and the air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Liu Yizhu was stunned for a moment, and quickly flipped over from the bed and squeezed past the three to come to her, taking over the soup bowl in her hand, "You woke up?"

He had wanted to go over and see her earlier, but was afraid of disturbing her rest.

Li Mingwei made a soft hmm sound, explaining, "Drink it while it's hot, I'll go back first."

Then she walked straight away.

Liu Yizhu only felt that she was unusually cold today, not knowing where he had offended her again. He handed the soup bowl to Yang Jingyuan behind him and chased after her.

Li Mingwei walked very fast. Liu Yizhu only caught up with her at the stairs. He held her hand, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

She glanced at him carefully, not knowing why, but today she felt a little embarrassed when she saw him, and felt very uncomfortable all over.

"Really?" Seeing her nod, Liu Yizhu led her downstairs, "You just live nearby, right? I'll walk you back."

"The soup..."

"I'll drink it later. There is a stove in the backyard. Heat it up again and it will be fine."

Li Mingwei nodded. But she still let go of his hand. There were quite a few people in the medical hall now. She didn't want to attract too much attention. Liu Yizhu didn't say anything. He just obediently followed behind her.

He sent Li Mingwei to the door of the room and reached out to stop the door she was about to close, "I want to talk to you for a while."

Li Mingwei looked back at the empty room. When she was alone with Liu Yizhu, it seemed he had done some bad things to her. Would he...

She was hesitating when Liu Yizhu had already pushed the door in by himself and closed the door behind him.

The sound of the door closing startled Li Mingwei. She hurriedly took a few steps back to keep some distance from him and stuttered, "W-What do you want to say? Just say it."

"What are you afraid of?" Liu Yizhu found it a little funny. He pulled Li Mingwei into his arms and assured, "Rest assured, I won't do anything to you before we get married."

"As if you haven't done enough?" Li Mingwei said speechlessly and pushed him away, sitting on the edge of the bed, pretending to tidy up her clothes, "What do you want to say, hurry up. Your classmates are still at the medical hall. They kindly came to see you, but you ran away instead."

"Don't mind them."

Those three were just bored. They had just finished the exam this morning and the results were not bad either. They came over specially to show off to him, telling him who got the lowest score to be more respectful of them in the future, otherwise they wouldn't play with him anymore.

Liu Yizhu hugged Li Mingwei aggrievedly, "This is the first time I've ranked last in my life."

"Did you take the exam?" Li Mingwei rolled her eyes at him, and suddenly remembered something. She twisted his ear, "Liu Yizhu, where did you sleep the night before last?"

Liu Yizhu suddenly didn't want to talk to her anymore. He turned around to run away, but Li Mingwei pulled him back, "Be honest, don't pretend to be stupid with me!"

He thought hard for a while but couldn't find a good excuse, so he had to answer honestly, "The bookstore."

Li Mingwei doubted, "Bookstore? Don't they close at night?"

"I went to copy books, not to read books."

Copying books was to earn money. He copied for a whole night. Li Mingwei guessed he probably didn't have much money left. She pinched his arm hard and scolded, "Just this, and you still didn't want my money."

Liu Yizhu had his own stubbornness. He buried his head in her neck so that she couldn't see the shame on his face, and said in a muffled voice, "I'm a man. It means nothing to spend your money."

"Too proud to live, too poor to die." Li Mingwei tutted and twisted him again, warning, "If you dare not sleep again and go to work, see how I will deal with you."

Liu Yizhu needed to defend himself on this, "I didn't go to work without sleeping. I couldn't fall asleep, so I wanted to find something to do."

Anyway, staring at the ceiling until dawn was useless. It was better to make use of the time and do something worthwhile.

Li Mingwei wrinkled her little nose, obviously not believing him. She unhooked the purse from her waist and raised her eyebrows at him.

Liu Yizhu tried, "Can I not take it? I really have money."

Li Mingwei smiled and nodded, gently saying, "Sure, feel free to try."

Liu Yizhu sensed some danger in her smile and didn't dare try. He had to take the purse and take out some money, "Enough, I'll pay you back next month."

Li Mingwei smiled, leaned in, and kissed the corner of his mouth, "Enough?"

This...

Didn't seem enough.

Liu Yizhu took out some more money from the purse. Li Mingwei kissed him again, "Enough?"

It would never be enough in this lifetime.

Liu Yizhu put all the money back into the purse and stuffed it into his arms, then pushed her down on the bed and dropped a kiss at the corner of her mouth, "Satisfied?"

Li Mingwei's back stiffened, "Barely."

Seeing her timid appearance, Liu Yizhu couldn't help smiling. She had taken the initiative just now. Why was she afraid again now?

He kissed her forehead, got up, and pulled her up too, joking, "You scaredy cat. Do I have no credibility with you at all?"

Li Mingwei snorted, "None!"

Liu Yizhu rubbed her head and took out the purse again, "You gave me all of it, what about you?"

"I still have some. If you're fine, I'll go back with my brother-in-law tomorrow, so I won't need it." Li Mingwei suddenly remembered that she only had silver notes left on her. She still had to keep some coins for dinner tonight and breakfast tomorrow.

"Okay, enough for meals will do."

Liu Yizhu weighed the remaining money, "Actually I don't need so much. My mother has almost recovered. After taking medicine for one more day tomorrow, if there is no relapse, we can go back the day after tomorrow."

"Then keep the rest to buy something else. Don't copy books at night anymore. The Autumn Examination is next year. Study hard. It's not worth wasting time on this."

Speaking of the Autumn Examination, Li Mingwei was a little worried. She stroked Liu Yizhu's cheek, "Let me put it this way, if you don't get the top scorer, third-highest scorer, or second-highest scorer in the Spring Examination, it will be embarrassing."

Her words were like a mountain, pressing down on Liu Yizhu's shoulders. He slumped down a bit and said firmly, "I'll try my best not to embarrass you."

Li Mingwei spread her hands helplessly. There was no way. Her maternal grandfather and father were both top scorers. She had already lowered her standards for him by asking for top three.
