Senior, wrong!

Chapter 12 Lollipops in the Rain
In the blink of an eye, it's Monday again.

During the lunch break, Ye Taotao went to the school library to return books.

She gave the library card and the books borrowed last week to the student on duty at the library that day, and waited for the other party to help her return the books.

While waiting, she raised her head inadvertently, but saw Lin Zhuoran who was standing beside her and looked at her in astonishment.

Lin Zhuoran also borrowed books from the library.

When he saw Ye Taotao, he was a little excited and was about to go up to say hello to her.

But when he saw the titles of the books she returned, Lin Zhuoran couldn't help but think of the rumors some time ago, and he was shocked.

He stopped for a moment, only feeling in a trance for a while.

... No, that's not true.

Although Ye Taotao saw Lin Zhuoran, she didn't pay attention to the expression on his face.She just nodded to him as a greeting, and after taking the library card, she turned and left.

"Ye Xuemei, wait a minute."

But not far away, Ye Taotao heard Lin Zhuoran's voice behind him.

He quickly chased after her, and came to her in a flash, blocking her way.

"Senior Lin? Excuse me...what's the matter?" Ye Taotao was taken aback by his actions, and couldn't help but took a half step back restrainedly.

"I'm sorry, just now... I saw..." Lin Zhuoran's expression became awkward. He faltered for a while, then suddenly raised his head, looked at Ye Taotao firmly, and said, "But even if In this way, I will not give up!"

Ye Taotao just felt baffled: "Ah? Senior Lin, what are you talking about?"

"Ye Xuemei, I..." Lin Zhuoran took a step forward with a serious expression, and when he was about to make a declaration from the bottom of his heart to Ye Taotao, he was interrupted by an angry voice.

"Hey you guy, what are you doing to the president's girlfriend!?" Xu Qiyuan, who came out of the library with a lot of books in his arms, strode over and lay between the two of them.

The conversation that had been brewing for a long time was interrupted like this, Lin Zhuoran was very annoyed, and retorted without thinking: "When did the school girl admit that she is Ling Yan's girlfriend?"

"Isn't this a fact recognized by the whole school?" Xu Qiyuan was not to be outdone.

"Shouldn't this kind of question be asked to the person involved?"

"Just ask, who is afraid of whom?"

The two big boys quarreled like this, and even Ye Taotao was brought into the fish pond by them.

"Ye Xuemei, tell me!"

"Student Ye, tell him quickly!"

The next moment, the two who were still arguing looked at Ye Taotao and spoke in unison.The two looked at her, as if they would not give up until they got an answer.

Ye Taotao was still out of the situation: "Uh? Ask me? This... I..." What did they say just now?
Just when she didn't know how to speak, an unexpected person appeared.

"School girl?"

Lin Zhuoran was interrupted by the spring-like voice, which also surprised him suddenly.

Lin Zhuoran raised his head, pointed at the person who appeared suddenly with trembling hands, as if facing a formidable enemy: "Ling, Ling Yan! How could it be you!"

"President?!"

Seeing Ling Yan's appearance, Xu Qiyuan's eyes lit up immediately.

However, Ling Yan directly ignored the vigilant Lin Zhuoran and the excited Xu Qiyuan, walked forward naturally, shook Ye Taotao's hand, and led her out of the room between the two of them in full view.

Ye Taotao did not expect Ling Yan to appear suddenly, and it was still in such an embarrassing situation.

When the warm touch came out from the palm of her hand, she suddenly woke up, only to realize that her hand had been tightly held by Ling Yan.

The slightly hot temperature came from the palm of the hand, and a trace of warmth penetrated into the bottom of the heart - at this moment, the heartbeat was synchronized by the chaotic thoughts.

However, looking at the hand held by Ling Yan, Ye Taotao felt a little uneasy—what's going on now? !Why does she have the feeling that she got into trouble at school, and then her parents came to take care of her! ? "

She looked up at Ling Yan, and there was a trace of trill in her surprised voice that she didn't even notice: "Ling, Senior Ling..."

Ling Yan looked at her with a smile in his black eyes, and said softly, "Let's go."

"……Oh."

Ye Taotao, who had already entered the conditioned reflex state, nodded in a daze, and just let him pull her away.

Walking along the way, there were vague thoughts like "Look, Ling Yanlai took Ye Taotao away.", "Yes, even though Ye Taotao treated him so ruthlessly, he still never left her...", "Why did she treat men like this?" Discussions such as "God" entered her ears, but they were automatically filtered out by her.

Because of this moment, her mind went blank.

Ling Yan's expression didn't change at all, he took Ye Taotao's hand and walked through the corridor like no one else was there.

As they walked along the way, there were constant surprised glances at the two of them, and even more voices of discussion.

Ye Taotao lowered her head, trying very hard to reduce her sense of existence.But even so, in University A, Ling Yan himself was a spotlight, no matter how bleak it was, he couldn't help but attract everyone's attention.

In fact, in the early days when the rumors spread, Ye Taotao had already become a celebrity whose reputation was no less than that of Ling Yan.Therefore, the scene of the two holding hands and passing by the corridor became a special and eye-catching scenery on the campus for a while.

All the pressure from the surroundings suddenly disappeared, and Ye Taotao, who had been in a fugue state, suddenly woke up.After recovering, she realized that the two of them were already in the small garden behind the teaching building.

There were no strange eyes or small voices of discussion here, but it made her feel at a loss.

"Ye Xuemei?" Ling Yan, who had been walking in front, seemed to have noticed something was wrong with Ye Taotao, and stopped and looked back at her.

"Oh, no, it's nothing." Ye Taotao shook her head, but her eyes fell on the hands they were clasping inadvertently, and only then did she realize that her hand was still tightly held by Ling Yan.

Ye Taotao immediately withdrew her hand like a frightened deer, but her face became hot like fire, and the roots of her ears turned red involuntarily.

Ling Yan was stunned for a moment, looking at his empty hand, there was some indescribable emotion hidden under his black eyes.

Trying to suppress the turbulent emotions in her heart, Ye Taotao softly asked the doubts in her heart: "Senior Ling, how could you..."

How could it suddenly appear when she was in such an embarrassing situation?And also helped her out.At first, she also thought that he came to find Xu Qiyuan, but she didn't expect...

"Sister... I just heard that Xu Qiyuan and Lin Zhuoran fought for you?" Ling Yan withdrew his hand and spoke slowly, but his overly calm tone revealed a bit of weirdness.

"Pfft..." The tension in Ye Taotao's heart instantly turned into embarrassment, and the expression on her face froze. After she realized it, she eagerly explained, "Senior, where did you hear this? Isn't it That's it! That's..."

But at this moment, a chuckle interrupted her.

"Huh?" Ye Taotao raised her head in doubt, and met Ling Yan's crescent-shaped eyes.It seems...that Ling Yan with the weird tone just now was just her illusion.

"Aren't you nervous now?" Ling Yan's good-looking eyebrows had a gentle smile inadvertently melted away, and he said pointedly, "I'm not used to the school girl just now."

It turned out that it was to make her relax?

"Senior..."

"I'm sorry, that fellow Xu Qiyuan has caused you trouble again." His tone slowed down, his eyes gradually became complicated and difficult to understand, "I feel very sorry to have troubled you. I just held your hand just as a cover , so...you don't mind, do you?"

Ye Taotao met his gaze, but found that she couldn't understand the information revealed in his black eyes.He hesitated for a while, but when she saw the gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, her heart instantly calmed down, and her face seemed to be less burned, like a rain that extinguished those anxious fires.

His smile always has the magical power to soothe her nervous emotions.

how to say?When facing Ling Yan, that feeling is not the same as the feeling of "like" that mother said.

She will be nervous, but the duration will not be long, because he will gradually calm her heart down.

Peace of mind, comfort, any anxiety can be easily resolved in front of him - this is the feeling he gave her.

When I'm with him, I won't feel bored, and I'm getting used to it...

But it was strange, no matter she faced Lin Zhuoran, Xu Qiyuan or other boys, she didn't feel this way.

So, she was getting more and more confused.

What is that feeling?
Before confirming the feeling in her heart, she dared not take the next step easily.

What if she made a mistake?
It will be embarrassing for both of you...

What's more, there seems to be a big problem between her and him.

About, that rumor...

"Of course not." Ye Taotao replied subconsciously, with an apologetic expression unconsciously on her face, "But senior, those discussions just now... I'm sorry, I don't seem to be able to clarify that rumor."

Ling Yan smiled and said, "Is that a rumor? As I said, it doesn't really matter."

"But senior, don't you feel very troubled?" After calming down, Ye Taotao also slowly raised the question in her heart.

Shouldn't normal people be angry when they encounter such a situation?
Why did he help her again and again regardless of past suspicions?
What's more, before this, he and her had no intersection at all... So, isn't this very unreasonable?
The seeds of doubt were sown in Ye Taotao's heart.

Ling Yan's wide and deep eyes like the ocean slowly showed a thoughtful look, but then he returned to his original look, and he asked with a faint smile: "So, junior, do you feel troubled by this rumor?"

"I..." Ye Taotao shook her head, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, "I don't know too well... At first I did feel very troubled and guilty, but then... I seem to get used to the existence of this rumor... ..."

In the end, she felt a little embarrassed.

Because Ling Yan is the "victim" of this incident, and she has no position to talk about her feelings about this incident, right?
Unexpectedly, Ling Yan answered her like this: "Then I will do the same."

"Huh?" Ye Taotao looked up at him in surprise.

Ling Yan naturally skipped the previous topic: "Actually, there is not only a way to clarify a rumor, there is another way..."

"what way?"

to prove it.

A voice said in my heart.

However, Ling Yan didn't say this, he just stared at Ye Taotao steadfastly.

half an hour.

He spoke again: "Junior girl, do you remember what I told you last time?"

"What happened last time? Senior, you mean?" Ye Taotao was slightly puzzled.

"Sister, in fact, I..."

...When I see someone I like, I always have the urge to kiss him...

I don't know why, suddenly, Ye Taotao's ear can't help but hear Ye's mother's words, and even her gentle tone when she said these words is so clear.

Ye Taotao's face flushed slightly.

No, not right!How can she be crazy!
The sunlight passed through the hourglass time second by second, spreading and caressing those delicate flowers.

Time freezes at a certain moment.

Ling Yan suddenly stopped talking, then looked up to a certain corner.

"As expected of Ling Yan." An exclamation came from a corner, and then Du Chengcheng's figure appeared in the sight of the two, with a hint of annoyance and disappointment on her face, "Really, I thought I hid it well, but I didn't expect you to find out where I was hiding so quickly."

Ye Taotao looked at Du Chengcheng who suddenly appeared, and couldn't help being surprised: "Sister Chengcheng?"

"An, An, you don't need to say hello to me." Du Chengcheng waved at her without guilt, with a sly smile on the corner of his mouth, "But Xiao Taotao, I didn't disturb your love affair, did I?"

"..."

Ye Taotao resolutely ignored the topic: "When were you here?"

"I've been here all the time, haven't you noticed?" Du Chengcheng glanced at Ling Yan seemingly indifferently, and sighed slowly, "But, I seem to have heard something..."

Facing Du Chengcheng's ridicule, Ling Yan still kept his face unchanged, and his tone was flat: "Student Du, I remember that you will go to the United States to participate in the exchange meeting there next month. Could it be that you are ready? But... you and Has your future partner discussed related matters?"

"Vice President, have you finished your article?" Because of Ling Yan's presence, Ye Taotao couldn't say the word "Xiaohuangwen" directly, so she changed it to a cryptic term.

The two spoke at almost the same time.

Du Chengcheng's face froze, she laughed a few times in embarrassment, and looked away.

"Ah! Look! The flowers here are so beautiful...Well, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do, so let's take a step first, goodbye!"

After hastily dropping a sentence, she fled away in a flash.

Ignoring Du Chengcheng who was running away, Ye Taotao and Ling Yan turned their heads at the same time and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Ling Yan laughed softly: "It's a tacit understanding, junior."

Ye Taotao lowered her head and pursed her lips into a smile, a slight blush appeared on her cheeks.

But before I knew it, it was time for the lunch break to end.

The breeze blew by, gently lifting the broken hair on Ling Yan's forehead.

"Ye Xuemei, when you encounter things that you can't do anything about, you must not be brave." Hearing Ling Yan say again, his dark world was quickly covered up by his usual gentleness, "Don't care too much about other people's eyes .”

I don't know why, but after hearing his words, Ye Taotao suddenly brightened up.

"I see, senior. Thank you, I still have class in the afternoon, so I'll go back first."

"it is good."

he replied.

It was getting late, and although the lunch break was not over yet, Ye Taotao went straight to the classroom for the next class.

The next class happens to be a compulsory course, so the classroom remembers it clearly.

But what surprised Ye Taotao was that as soon as she approached the classroom, she heard a sound of arguing inside.

"Sports Committee, what the hell is going on? Why is my name not listed on the school sports meeting schedule? I remember that I clearly signed up for the 800-meter event?"

Song Linlin's voice was particularly agitated amidst the quarrels, Ye Taotao could clearly hear every word she said even through a door.

"On the contrary, Taotao..."

Hearing Song Linlin mentioning herself, Ye Taotao pushed the door open with doubts and walked in.

Just the moment the door opened—

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Ye Taotao couldn't help asking strangely: "Hey? What happened?"

"Taotao, hurry up and take a look, the schedule for the school sports meeting is out." Song Linlin walked up quickly, pulled her to the seat of the sports committee member, and explained anxiously as she walked.

"Huh? The schedule of the school sports meeting? But...does this have something to do with me?" Ye Taotao looked at her with a puzzled expression.Sports has always been something she is not good at. Although she also wants to contribute to the collective, she is also self-aware when it comes to sports.

In order not to hinder the profession, she did not sign up for any project this time, but chose to be a member of the logistics staff.

But now, Xiaolin mentioned to her...

"But, your name is on our professional 800-meter list!" Song Linlin's next sentence made her freeze there.

Ye Taotao reacted slowly, and turned to look at Song Linlin: "... Xiaolin, let me have a look at the schedule."

Song Linlin immediately looked at Chen Weiyang, who hesitantly handed the schedule in Ye Taotao's hand.

Ye Taotao took the not-so-thick schedule and flipped to the page of track and field events.

I saw that on the list of the 800-meter long-distance race, it was clearly written——

Women's 800-meter long-distance race, Faculty of Law, Runway 3: Ye Taotao.

Ye Taotao looked at the list in her hand, and suddenly felt that she was not well.

Who's going to tell her what's going on? !
When did she report for the 800-meter long-distance race?

"I heard that you are going to run 800 meters, and the students in the class are very surprised." At this time, Song Linlin said from the side, "I also feel very strange, but I know that this is not your name. So I see When my name is not on the schedule, I know that the sports committee must have made a mistake."

After a long time, Ye Taotao put down the schedule in her hand and looked at Chen Weiyang, but her voice revealed that she was not calm at the moment: "Sports Committee, what's going on?"

"But... isn't this student Ye who you signed up for yourself?" Under the gaze of the four eyes, Chen Weiyang scratched his head, very puzzled.

"But I clearly remember that what I told you that time was that I signed up for Xiaolin, and you made it clear at the time." Ye Taotao recalled the details of signing up for Song Linlin at that time, with a very sure tone.

Chen Weiyang's expression froze, and he glanced away.It seems... He recalled that Ye Taotao had indeed said so.But what was he doing at that time?

It seems that I was reading gossip posts about Ye Taotao and Ling Yan on the school forum, so I mistook the person who signed up as Ye Taotao...

The expression on Chen Weiyang's face became embarrassing, and he struggled to pull out a stiff smile: "Uh, this... so maybe... probably that time, I didn't see clearly that Song Linlin was actually the one who signed up, so... "

"So, can this list still be changed?" This is what Ye Taotao and Song Linlin want to know the most at this moment.

"It's no longer possible, this list has been finalized, and the person in charge said that the list cannot be changed casually. So - I'm sorry, Student Ye! Please forgive me! I swear that I will never pay attention to the gossip between you and Senior Ling again! "

Ye Taotao: "..."

So, what else can she say! ?

bell--

The bell for class finally rang slowly, telling everyone that the recess time was over.

"Taotao, although I really want to have a good meal, but... I still wish you good luck."

As the bell rang, Song Linlin patted Ye Taotao's shoulder sympathetically, turned around and returned to her seat, leaving Ye Taotao alone in the wind.

For a sports junkie, running 800 meters will kill you!

No matter what, Ye Taotao couldn't accept the bad news that she was going to run 800 meters in the school sports meet next week.

She tried to hypnotize herself, even if she had to run 800 meters, it would be next week, and she still had a week to prepare, so she should be more optimistic.

But she soon and sadly discovered that her self-hypnosis had failed.

So, this week came to an end in her worries about how to spend the school sports meeting next week.

In the end, there was really no other way.

Ye Taotao decided to forget about that nightmare for the time being, and start thinking about it after a happy weekend.

This weekend, Mother Ye is cleaning at home.

Ye Taotao was sent by mother Ye to the supermarket to buy daily necessities for the family.

The nearby supermarket is not far from the campus where Ye Taotao lives, about 15 minutes away, and it is very convenient to walk there.

After picking out the supplementary daily necessities and ingredients, Ye Taotao checked out and walked out of the supermarket.

But for some reason, the recent weather has been capricious.

The sky was surprisingly foggy and gloomy, and the air was extremely oppressive, as if it was going to rain.

When she came out of the supermarket, the sky was still clear, so Ye Taotao didn't bring an umbrella.

Seeing the instantly changing sky, Ye Taotao subconsciously quickened her pace.This supermarket is only about 15 minutes away from home. She thought it was only a few steps away, so she would probably be able to get home before it rained, right?

After thinking for a moment, she walked out of the supermarket without hesitation.

It's a pity that she just walked through a street, and the sound of thunder suddenly exploded above her head, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, and the overwhelming dark cloud suddenly vented its anger.

Ye Taotao was caught off guard by the sudden rainstorm.

Before he could react from the shock of the thunder, the rain had already poured down.

In less than a few seconds, the rain was so heavy that things more than ten meters away could not be seen clearly, and people ran around holding their umbrellas and covering their heads.After a while, there was no one on the street, and there was no other sound except the roar of raindrops.

"...can't be so unlucky?"

Ye Taotao hurriedly ran to the eaves to shelter from the rain.

She looked up at the sky where the rain was pouring down, hoping that the rain would stop soon, but every minute passed, and the rain showed no sign of stopping.

She began to regret that she didn't bring an umbrella when she went out.

The rain won't stop for a while, and there are no shops selling rain gear around here...

Fortunately, she brought her mobile phone, so Ye Taotao quickly took out her mobile phone and dialed the number at home - it was Ye Jiayuan who answered the phone.

Unexpectedly, after she finished talking about her miserable situation, what she got in return was the other party's heartless words: "Hey, I'm entertaining my classmates, Taotao should call someone else, goodbye."

"Hello..." Before the words finished, the other party had hung up the phone cheerfully.

Heartless brat!Ye Taotao groaned, and put away the phone helplessly, but she really had nothing to do with him.

What to do now?
Just when Ye Taotao was at a loss, suddenly, a shadow covered the place where she was standing, and then a light purple umbrella covered her head.

……Hey?

Ye Taotao turned around in surprise——

It was raining heavily, and Ye Taotao stared blankly at the person holding the umbrella, feeling that the noisy rain seemed to be quieter for a moment.

Ling Yan...

There was a heart-warming smile in those familiar black eyes, for Ye Taotao at this moment, everything in front of her was so unreal.

Ye Taotao thought she was dazzled - otherwise, how could she see Ling Yan here?
She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, but the person in front of her still didn't disappear when she opened her eyes.

Ye Taotao began to feel that she must be crazy.Otherwise, how could you have the illusion that "he is right in front of you" even when you go shopping?

"School girl?"

Until Ling Yan's gentle voice brought her thoughts back to the real world.

Ye Taotao came back to her senses, only to realize that the Ling Yan in front of her was not her hallucination, but a real existence.

So, the person who appeared in front of her was really Ling Yan?

"Senior Ling?" Ye Taotao asked with a bit of surprise in his voice.

Seeing the surprised look on her face, Ling Yan couldn't help but laugh: "Are you surprised to see me?"

Ye Taotao nodded honestly.She didn't expect to meet him here, and she remembered that his home didn't seem to be nearby, right?
"I went to work around here today, and I didn't expect to meet you here." Ling Yanfeng smiled lightly, and brought this topic lightly, "I saw your back outside the supermarket just now, and thought got the wrong person."

"So that's the case, that's really a coincidence..." Ye Taotao murmured.

"Ms. Ye Xuemei, are you sheltering from the rain here? But I think the rain might not stop for a while." Ling Yan glanced at the pouring rain outside the eaves, and turned to look at her with a questioning gaze, "how about , shall I take you back?"

Indeed, according to the current rain, I don't know when the rain will stop.

She doesn't want to stand here for a day.

and……

Ye Taotao looked down at the bag of daily necessities that hurt her hand, and couldn't help but sighed helplessly: "Then I will trouble you, senior."

"You're welcome."

The corners of Ling Yan's lips raised slightly, and a slender hand stretched out, taking the shopping bag from her hand naturally.

When he lowered his head, Ye Taotao's profile met Ye Taotao's eyes, and the light from the small shop next to him fell on his face, making the lines of his face extraordinarily soft, and the few strands of hair falling down on his forehead covered his face. His eyes made him look so focused.

"Hey, senior, actually...you don't need to bother..." Ye Taotao froze for a moment when she didn't expect him to do this, and she was instantly at a loss for what to do.

"I'll get it."

By the time she realized it, he had already taken the bag in her hand.

Looking at her empty hands, the only thing Ye Taotao could do was to nod her head and say thanks: "Thank you..."

Looking at Ye Taotao with blushing cheeks, Ling Yan's eyes were also stained with a smile.

He bent his lips and said warmly: "You're welcome, any boy would do the same."

After a pause, he then asked, "By the way, junior, what is your home address?"

"My home is..." Ye Taotao looked up and gave an address.

"Then let's go."

"okay……"

Ye Taotao nodded, and walked under Ling Yan's umbrella with a trace of restraint.

in the rain.

Ye Taotao and Ling Yan walked side by side, the umbrella was big enough to protect both of them under the umbrella, like a barrier for the two of them, the heavy rain inside and outside the umbrella seemed to form a closed and narrow space , and the only ones in it were Ye Taotao and Ling Yan.

The two were very close, and the air with water vapor was mixed with ambiguous factors, floating between them.

Ye Taotao was embarrassed to look up at Ling Yan, but kept her head down, not knowing what to say, so she just kept silent.

But why do you still find it so strange?
Everything is just a coincidence.

Although the distance between the two is very close now, so close that you can almost feel each other's body temperature, but that's just to keep everyone from getting wet from the rain...

So, she should not think too much.

Ye Taotao comforted herself in her heart, but she still couldn't calm down her heartbeat.

No one spoke a word along the way, and the atmosphere between the two was a little delicate.

The distance from the rain shelter to Ye Taotao's house is not long, only 10 minutes away, but Ye Taotao felt that the time they spent on this journey was as long as a century.

"Sister, is it here?"

It wasn't until Ling Yan's questioning voice sounded next to her ear that Ye Taotao came back to her senses, only then did she realize that she had arrived at her own door before she knew it.

Why are you distracted again?

She reached out her hand and knocked on her head with some annoyance, then hurriedly took the bag of daily necessities from Ling Yan, and said gratefully: "Senior, thank you very much today, you helped me once again."

After a pause, a blush of embarrassment appeared on her face: "...It seems that I have caused you a lot of trouble every time."

Seeing Ye Taotao's somewhat comical behavior, Ling Yan showed a slight smile in his eyes: "You're welcome, then, I'll..."

But when she raised her head, Ye Taotao couldn't help being startled.With keen eyes, she noticed that the clothes on Ling Yan's other shoulder were completely soaked, while the clothes on her body were not damaged at all.

Ye Taotao immediately understood what was going on.

Will cause possible, only one situation.

It must have been on the way to send her back just now. He only cared about her and pushed the umbrella to her side. As a result, his clothes on the other side...

Ye Taotao suddenly felt an indescribable feeling overflowing in her heart.

Seeing that there was no sign of stopping outside, but that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, she quickly called to Ling Yan who was about to turn around and leave: "Senior! Um... would you like to come in and sit down, and leave when the rain calms down?"

Ling Yan was slightly taken aback.

Ye Taotao tried her best to suppress that uncomfortable emotion, and said with a slightly red face: "You invited me to dinner last time, this time just so..."

Ling Yan smiled unknowingly, and a pleasant smile appeared under his eyes: "Okay, then excuse me."

He put away the umbrella and followed Ye Taotao into the house.

Hearing the sound of the door, Ye Jiaze ran out of the house, looked at Ling Yan, then at Ye Taotao with vigilant eyes, and asked in surprise, "You—"

"You were the one from last time..." In the end, Ye Jiaze's shocked eyes fell on Ling Yan, and he just stared at him blankly, unable to recover for a long time.

"Hello." Ling Yan smiled and nodded to him.

"Jiaze, don't do it this time..." Thinking of the provocative incident at the tennis club last time, Ye Taotao was worried that Ye Jiaze would do something disrespectful again, and couldn't care less about complaining about his "doing nothing to help", so she hurried forward to stop it he.

"Wait a minute, I finally remembered who you are!" Ye Jiaze suddenly slapped his head and exclaimed.

Before Ye Taotao could react, he spoke again: "No wonder I think your name is very familiar. You used to have a lot of deeds in our school! Up to now, no one can surpass you. At that time, the high school entrance examination was only 1 point away from the full score. Champion, right?"

Ye Taotao: "..."

"I know about you! My classmates in school have discussed about you—"

Why! ?

Hearing Ye Jiaze's adoring and eager tone, Ye Taotao suddenly became a little confused.

Ye Jiaze suddenly rushed forward and hugged Ling Yan's thigh, and looked up at him with bright eyes: "By the way, brother-in-law, teach me how to play tennis!"

Hey, what's going on now?

His attitude changed too suddenly, Ye Taotao couldn't accept it for a moment.

"Taotao abandoned you because she has no vision, so don't bother with her. I heard that you are very good at tennis, teach me how to play tennis!"

Ye Taotao was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stepped forward and pulled him back: "Jiaze, don't hug your thighs indiscriminately!"

Ling Yan was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "Okay, if there is a chance."

"Senior..."

Ye Taotao suddenly became helpless, and a deep sense of powerlessness spread through her limbs.Ling Yan...why is he messing around with Jia Ze?

"However, how did you know about that?" Ling Yan asked casually.

Having received Ling Yan's promise, Ye Jiaze was overjoyed, naturally he didn't notice the meaning of that sentence, so he replied without thinking, "Ah, the brother who fought with us last time told me. "

Ling Yan concealed the thoughtful look in his eyes: "Is that so?"

"Senior, sit here for a while, and I'll get you towels and hot water."

Caught in this embarrassing atmosphere, Ye Taotao felt that she would be driven crazy if she stayed any longer.

So, she hurriedly found an excuse to slip away, and dragged Ye Jiaze who was constantly "causing trouble" out of the living room.

"Jia Ze, aren't you entertaining your classmates?" She asked in a low voice when she walked out of the living room.

"Hey, he just left." Ye Jiaze scratched his head and smiled guilty.

Ye Taotao glared at him, but because of Ling Yan's existence, she didn't say anything, but asked, "By the way, isn't mom here?"

"Mom said she went to see an old friend." Seeing that he had escaped, Ye Jiaze secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Hearing this, he looked at her with some doubts in his eyes, "But why are you asking this?"

"It's nothing."

Ye Taotao shook her head.

But for some reason, when she heard the news that her mother hadn't come back, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Also, if she meets Mother Ye when she takes Ling Yan home, she doesn't know what embarrassing situation will arise.

Fortunately, the heavy rain did not last too long today.

After more than ten minutes, the rain gradually stopped.

With a bit of embarrassment, Ye Taotao sent Ling Yan out the door who got up to leave, and by the way, apologized for what happened just now: "Senior Ling, you know that Jia Ze likes tennis very much, but...so, what he said just now, Please don't take it to heart."

"It's okay." The smile in Ling Yan's eyes deepened, "I think Ye Xuemei's younger brother is very cute."

"..." This sentence is very familiar, as if I heard him say it before.

However, she always felt that this style of dialogue... was wrong?
"By the way, junior, I have something for you."

Just when Ye Taotao was feeling uneasy, Ling Yan's gentle voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Huh?" Ye Taotao raised her head in surprise.

Then she saw Ling Yan took something out of his pocket, put it into her palm, made him clenched it tightly and withdrew his hand.

"Then goodbye, Ye Xuemei." There was a deep and incomprehensible smile in the dark eyes, and after saying goodbye, before Ye Taotao could react, he turned and left.

"Goodbye..." The handshake by Ling Yan seemed to still have residual heat.

Ye Taotao was stunned for a moment, and opened her hand hesitantly, but the expression on her face froze instantly.

The thing lying quietly in her palm was a...peach-flavored lollipop.
