Chapter 1952: Emphasizing That She’s Smarter Than You?

At the thought of this, she suddenly went forward and opened Ye Qingqiu’s door.

“Ye Qingqiu…”

Liang Xuer admitted that she had indeed done it on purpose. In fact, at that moment, she was gloating and excited…

However, just as she opened the door and walked in, she realized that the room was empty.

There were two plush dolls lying neatly on the bed.

Beside her was her dressing table and on the other side was her desk. There were many simple items and a few books. They were also clean and tidy.

Li Tingshen saw that a few things were the same as the ones in his room.

The situation in the house was enough to show that no one had entered until today.

“Eating is like urging the soul…”

A familiar voice sounded in the corridor.

Her words were laced with impatience and frustration.

However, it ended abruptly.

Li Tingshen turned around slowly.

Ye Qingqiu was staring at him blankly.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise as she stared at him in disbelief.

“Li Tingshen?”

Indeed, her voice was filled with disbelief.

Li Tingshen looked up calmly and glanced behind her. It was obvious that there was a bookcase against the wall.

She raised an eyebrow and the gloominess in her eyes dissipated.

“You’re indeed the daughter of the Ye family. You even have to be urged to eat.”

A familiar voice with a familiar coldness.

Ye Qingqiu snapped out of her daze and was overjoyed. She ran to his side and hugged Li Tingshen’s waist.

Li Tingshen was caught off guard and his body swayed.

“Why are you here?”

The unique fragrance of Ye Qingqiu instantly filled her nose.

Her soft body pressed against his intimately. This was the second time the two of them had such close contact.

It seemed that after the first time, the second or third time might be easier.

She still remembered the time when she rushed to the Li family and applied medicine on him.

Liang Xuer’s face darkened instantly.

“Ye Qingqiu, aren’t you embarrassed?”

Li Tingshen reached out to grab Ye Qingqiu’s shoulder, wanting to pull her away.

Ye Qingqiu turned to look at Liang Xuer and asked, “Why are you in my room?”

Liang Xuer’s expression changed and her eyes darted around.

“I came up to call you for dinner, but you didn’t respond after knocking for a long time…”

Ye Qingqiu’s eyes flickered as she sneered at Liang Xuer. She didn’t notice Li Tingshen’s hand on her shoulder.

Xu Wenxuan heard the commotion and walked out of the study.

“Ye…”

Li Tingshen looked up at him and saw Xu Wenxuan’s eyes darken when he saw Ye Qingqiu.

Ye Qingqiu seemed to have heard the voice as well. She turned to look at Xu Wenxuan and straightened her body instinctively.

However, a hand suddenly landed on her shoulder. It was as if there was a bag of sandbags hanging on her. For a moment, he pressed her down forcefully and pressed her back into the man’s embrace.

Li Tingshen shifted his gaze to Xu Wenxuan.

The force that pressed her back seemed to be Ye Qingqiu’s illusion. In the next second, her body was pulled to the side by Li Tingshen.

It only involved him.

Her actions were neither gentle nor cold.

Li Tingshen’s gaze lingered on Xu Wenxuan for a few seconds before slowly shifting to Ye Qingqiu.

He lowered his chin slightly, his long and narrow eyes carrying his usual indifference. His thin lips parted slightly.

“So when can you have dinner?”

Her voice was as cold as usual, but Ye Qingqiu could hear a different gentleness in it.

She had long forgotten that she had something to settle with Liang Xuer. She said, “I don’t know. There’s a question that can’t be avoided. It’s so annoying…”

Perhaps Ye Qingqiu really cared about that question. Her tone was a little irritable and her fair and delicate brows were slightly furrowed. The subtle change in her expression revealed her emotions clearly.

Ye Jianyun was right.

Indeed, she had not experienced much chaos in the industry. She was heartless and innocent. She had never known how to hide the expression on her face.

It was too easy to understand.

“Let’s eat first.”

Ye Qingqiu took a deep breath and her delicate nose wrinkled slightly. “If I don’t eat, I’ll definitely have indigestion…”

Her voice trailed off and she suddenly raised her head. Her eyes seemed to suck in all the light in the room.

“Will you teach me after dinner?”

Li Tingshen didn’t say anything and strode away.

Ye Qingqiu hurriedly followed behind him. “You mean you want to help me solve the problem, right?”

Li Tingshen glanced at her. “Don’t you have someone to teach you?”

“I don’t care. You’re not allowed to leave after dinner.”

Li Tingshen remained silent.

Ye Qingqiu was very happy.

The four of them went downstairs. Ye Jianyun saw Ye Qingqiu’s happiness and shook his head.

Indeed, everything had its weakness.

In fact, there was always a winner.

At the dining table, Liang Xuer and Xu Wenxuan barely spoke. It was only when Ye Jianyun asked Xu Wenxuan a few questions that he replied politely.

They didn’t talk during meals. Even a well-educated family wouldn’t accept such a tradition.

He was just being particular.

No matter what, Liang Xuer would abide by those rules.

She was the so-called daughter of a wealthy family and the eldest daughter of the Ye family. She had perfect table manners.

Moreover, in front of Li Tingshen, she would only make herself more perfect.

But Ye Qingqiu was different.

This eldest daughter of the Ye family, who was born and raised in the Ye family, was recognized as the little princess of the Ye family in Ping Cheng City. She sat in front of Li Tingshen and kept putting food into his bowl.

Forget about the public chopsticks, it was her own chopsticks.

It was rare for Ye Qingqiu to be so enthusiastic.

With Li Tingshen’s usually indifferent personality, his enthusiasm was the most unbearable.

“Enough.”

Looking at the mountain of food on the plate, Li Tingshen finally spoke.

Ye Qingqiu didn’t have a good appetite. She didn’t need to eat anything on the table.

In the end, she took a bite for Li Tingshen before watching him take a bite.

She enjoyed it.

Liang Xuer sat opposite and looked at Ye Qingqiu coldly.

When she heard Li Tingshen finally stopping her coldly, her eyes were filled with mockery.

Sometimes, people were too arrogant.

People like Ye Qingqiu were even more so.

If he treated her nicely, she would be so smug.

How could someone like her leave a good impression on others?

Ye Qingqiu didn’t react to Li Tingshen’s coldness. She supported her chin with her left hand and looked at Li Tingshen with the chopsticks in her right hand.

“You haven’t eaten much. I’m the owner of this house. I can have leftovers, but you can’t. Why don’t you admit that you’re also from the Ye family? Then you can have the leftovers.”

Li Tingshen frowned. He looked at the food on the plate and started eating again.

Ye Qingqiu watched as he placed a mouthful of food into his mouth. There was no change in his expression. He was born with a cold and noble aura. When he ate, he was slow and elegant.

How could Ye Qingqiu’s love be bad?

Looking at her actions, Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips. At first glance, she seemed a little disappointed, but it was not difficult to see the smugness in her eyes.

It wasn’t like she didn’t know Li Tingshen. How could she admit that he was from the Ye family?

She just wanted him to eat more.

Ye Jianyun could tell.

Li Tingshen knew that.

After all, Xu Wenxuan was a guest invited by Ye Qingqiu. Now that Li Tingshen could eat as she wished, she turned her gaze to Xu Wenxuan.

After all, he was the young master of a noble family. There was no need to elaborate on his words and actions.

“Class monitor, thank you for tutoring me these few days.”

Although everyone in Ping Cheng City was a little afraid of the arrogant princess of the Ye family, as long as they got close to her and understood her, they would know that she was not as difficult to get along with as others said.

In fact, there were many comments about her, but Xu Wenxuan thought that not many people would really hate her.

She had always been a loner, but if she wanted to, there should be many people willing to approach her.

Be it for the Ye family or for her.

But with her personality, he guessed that she was too lazy to communicate with others.

She was really the kind of person who couldn’t be bought with money.

He had never bothered to feign civility with others.

Xu Wenxuan looked at the corners of her lips and her beautiful eyes.

He smiled and shook his head gently. “I’m very happy to be able to help you. I hope you can perform better the day after tomorrow and get a satisfactory result. It won’t be too late for you to thank me then.”

Ye Qingqiu raised her eyebrows and held her chin. In a good mood, she picked up a mouthful of food and placed it in her mouth.

“That’s true. It seems like I have to perform better the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, I’ll be letting down the time and energy you’ve wasted on me these few days.”

Li Tingshen, who had been eating slowly beside her, retracted his jaw silently. No one could see his dark expression.

“You don’t have to put so much pressure on yourself. You’re very smart. I believe you’ll get good results.”

Ye Qingqiu only smiled and didn’t say anything else. She turned her head and looked at Li Tingshen.

The plate was empty, and there were only a few stalks of green celery left.

Ye Jianyun’s blood pressure was a little high, so the kitchen would always pay attention to her diet.

There would be a few dishes for almost every meal. Whether it was the main or secondary dishes, they would try their best to add some celery.

“You’re picky? You don’t eat celery?”

Ye Qingqiu seemed to have discovered something new, or as if she had something on him. She was surprised and amused.

When she thought about it carefully, she had never seen any vegetables with celery before.

Li Tingshen ignored her and continued eating the other dishes on the plate.

A pair of chopsticks suddenly appeared in front of her plate.

Li Tingshen paused.

He watched as the pair of chopsticks took away the celery from his plate.

His gaze shifted as he watched her place the celery into her mouth.

After chewing a few times, she swallowed it.

“What else don’t you like to eat?” Ye Qingqiu asked him with interest.

Li Tingshen watched as her red lips parted and closed. As she spoke, the corners of her lips could be seen clearly.

Was this something that everyone could do?

Li Tingshen didn’t speak. Ye Qingqiu’s gaze swept across the dining table and landed on Liang Xuer’s face.

Liang Xuer took in her intentions.

Just as her chopsticks were about to reach out, she said coldly, “He doesn’t like seafood.”

Ye Qingqiu paused in her actions.

Glancing at Liang Xuer’s cold face, he picked up a piece of sea cucumber and placed it on Li Tingshen’s plate.

Li Tingshen stared at her coldly.

Ye Qingqiu was still smiling at him. “Why aren’t you eating?”

Although she was smiling, everyone felt that the atmosphere was a little cold.

“Qingqiu, stop fooling around.”

Ye Jianyun finally broke the silence.

“How am I fooling around? How can I wrong a top-notch sea cucumber?”

Liang Xuer couldn’t take it anymore and put down her chopsticks. “Ye Qingqiu, if you want to create a scene, you have to take a look at the occasion. Do you think this is fun?”

Ye Qingqiu glanced at her coldly and turned to look at the servant beside her. She said calmly, “It seems like Miss Liang is full. Remove her bowl and chopsticks.”

Liang Xuer’s face darkened.

The servant stood rooted to the ground.

No matter how one looked at it, Ye Qingqiu was giving Liang Xuer a hard time.

Removing someone’s bowl and chopsticks halfway was obviously chasing them off the dining table.

Ye Qingqiu looked at the servant and asked, “Is there something wrong with your ears or did you not understand what I said?”

The servant hurried to Liang Xuer’s side.

“You should say that to yourself!”

Liang Xuer said coldly, “Did I step on your sore spot by saying that he doesn’t eat seafood? You’re using such a childish method to vent your anger. Are you showing off how capable or bored you are?”

Ye Qingqiu reached out with her chopsticks and took a piece of celery from Li Tingshen’s plate. She placed it in her mouth and finished it slowly before saying, “If you want to create a scene, you should look at the occasion. Keep this sentence for yourself. Haven’t you always been proud of your clothes and always put on the airs of a rich young lady? The Ye family doesn’t care about table manners when eating, but they can’t tolerate anyone throwing their chopsticks at the table. Who are you throwing it at?”

After saying that, she glanced at the servant beside her. The servant’s face tightened and she hurried up to remove the plate in front of Liang Xuer awkwardly.

Then, Ye Qingqiu turned to look at Li Tingshen. “Aren’t you eating?”

Li Tingshen glanced at Ye Qingqiu indifferently and said coldly, “I don’t eat seafood.”

Everyone broke out in cold sweat.

Her frank admission confirmed Liang Xuer’s words.

The reason for Ye Qingqiu’s sudden change in attitude was because Liang Xuer had known Li Tingshen for a few years and knew him well.

If Li Tingshen didn’t speak or admit it, this matter might pass quietly.

But now…

However, Ye Qingqiu only smiled and picked up the sea cucumber from Li Tingshen’s plate with her chopsticks before putting it into her mouth.

“Okay, got it.”

Everyone was speechless.

That was it?

At the same time, they understood that Ye Qingqiu did not want to hear from Liang Xuer how well she understood Li Tingshen.

Ye Jianyun heaved a sigh of relief. He glanced at the servant and said calmly, “Give me the clean bowl and chopsticks again.”

It was obvious who to give it to.

“No need!” Liang Xuer said coldly and stood up abruptly. “I’m full.”

Everyone was no exception. No one would choose to stay after being humiliated like this.

Ye Jianyun didn’t say anything.

However, her expression did not improve.

Ever since Liang Xuer brought Li Tingshen back today, he had been unhappy with her. Now that this had happened at the dining table, it was difficult for him to be in a good mood with her.

He had always treated her and Qingqiu equally and had never wanted her to be grateful to him. However, he couldn’t even get the slightest bit of care from her.

Qingqiu had always been a daughter who made him happy and considerate. It was natural for him to treat her well and willingly.

Everyone knew how much the two of them had contributed.

Moreover, in order not to let Liang Xuer bear a grudge, he had been criticizing Qingqiu recently.

In the end, he still couldn’t win her heart.

No matter how she thought about it, he had been throwing himself at her all these years.

Although Liang Xuer’s actions were expected, if she was considerate and sensible, she shouldn’t have left after he gave her a way out.

Liang Xuer turned to leave, the chair making an ear-piercing sound.

Ye Qingqiu’s eyes turned cold.

However, Ye Jianyun’s gaze made her suppress her anger.

Liang Xuer’s departure still had some impact.

Not long after, the few of them put down their bowls and chopsticks.

Since it had happened, the atmosphere was inevitably awkward.

—

In the study room, Ye Qingqiu placed the question in front of Li Tingshen.

“Just this question. Moreover, I have a feeling that it will be tested the day after tomorrow!”

Li Tingshen didn’t say anything. He picked up a pen and wrote the steps on an empty piece of paper. The steps were too detailed and he occasionally spat out a few cold words.

Ye Qingqiu nodded repeatedly.

Xu Wenxuan watched from the side. It was indeed easier to understand than the questions he had solved.

He couldn’t help but glance at Li Tingshen.

She was only three years older than him, but although her calm and noble aura looked reserved and gentle, her aura was obvious.

He was wearing a simple shirt and casual pants. At this moment, he looked cold and focused. Every move he made was refined and distant.

Indeed, he was ashamed of his inferiority.

Such a man should be a woman’s favorite.

His well-defined fingers held the pen as he casually wrote on the paper…

Actually, the competition between men was just like that. It was so detailed that no detail could be missed.

Xu Wenxuan felt inferior and regretful.

When she looked at Ye Qingqiu again, her face shone under the light. Her already beautiful face became even clearer.

Perhaps it was because he was by Li Tingshen’s side, but the brilliance in his eyes was something he had never seen before.

Thinking about it, she had thought that he would be one of the few people who knew her the best.

But now, it seemed that she was still far from it.

Perhaps, there would be more in the future. The innocence of a girl, the shyness of a young girl, and even the leap and charm of a woman…

He might not have the chance to see it again.

A young man in his prime would always have beautiful imaginations and expectations.

Ye Qingqiu’s attention was focused on Li Tingshen and she didn’t notice Xu Wenxuan’s gaze on her.

However, from the beginning to the end, Xu Wenxuan had always been an existence that Li Tingshen couldn’t ignore.

On the computer screen beside the desk, he could see Xu Wenxuan’s gaze clearly.

The last stroke left a deep mark on the paper.

“You understand?”

Li Tingshen paused and looked at Ye Qingqiu.

Ye Qingqiu nodded. “Yes.”

Xu Wenxuan’s thoughts were interrupted. He retracted his gaze and turned to look at Li Tingshen.

Caught off guard, embarrassment appeared on his face.

Li Tingshen stood up and his slender figure grew taller.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll get going.”

Ye Qingqiu pouted unhappily.

But it didn’t seem appropriate to keep her around now.

Li Tingshen walked out of the desk and turned to look at Xu Wenxuan.

“So you’re planning to stay here tonight?”

Xu Wenxuan looked at the time and put his book away. “I’m leaving too.”

Li Tingshen didn’t move and maintained his posture. He watched coldly as he put all the books into his bag and zipped it up.

“Student Ye, rest early.”

Ye Qingqiu nodded. “I’ve troubled you for the past two days… Oh, I forgot to keep your pen…”

She picked up a black fountain pen from the middle of her textbook and handed it to Xu Wenxuan.

Xu Wenxuan wanted to take the bag, but it was too heavy.

“It’s okay, you can keep it.”

Ye Qingqiu could tell that it was inconvenient for him. Moreover, in her eyes, it was just a pen that wasn’t worth much. She didn’t say anything and placed it on the table.

Li Tingshen narrowed his eyes.

Xu Wenxuan walked over with his bag. When he walked past him, Li Tingshen turned around and followed him.

Ye Qingqiu naturally followed beside him.

“She won’t be tutoring Liang Xuer tomorrow, right?”

“Yeah.”

“What about the holidays? How long do you plan to help her connect the Year Two and Year Three classes?”

Li Tingshen said calmly, “You took a vacation.”

“So? I’m using a holiday. That’s my ability!”

Li Tingshen’s thin lips curled into a faint smile. “So are you emphasizing that she’s smarter than you?”

“Her?” Ye Qingqiu sneered coldly. “Do you think someone with a good brain will do that tonight?”

Li Tingshen frowned. “Don’t you think you’ve gone overboard?”

Ye Qingqiu slowly stopped and the two of them stopped at the staircase.

“I’m too much?” Her lips curled up slowly. “Speaking of which, I’m very curious. In the past, no matter how I begged you, you refused to come to my house. Today… did you really come to tutor her?”
