Chapter 1653: Chapter 940: So-Called Compromise (3)

"Who made you all so worrisome?" Li Xiaoxian rubbed her forehead, "Sigh, actually, Teacher Wang is really nice, what a pity."

"Second Sister, if you like Teacher Wang so much, I can help you deliver the letter." As Li Xiaoning said this, he ran out and closed the door, "Bang!" An apple hit the door.

"You little brat, lucky you ran fast, but you can run, but the temple can’t run away, just wait..."

Hearing the muttering sounds from the room, Li Xiaoyan’s lips curled up in a slight smile, then a trace of worry appeared in her eyes.

"Big Sister, are you worried that Second Sister really likes Teacher Wang?"

Li Xiaoyan looked at her brother in surprise, "Xiaoning, you really have grown up. Yes, I’m a bit worried, after all, their age difference is quite big.

"Just said Second Sister loves to worry, Big Sister, you also love to worry." Li Xiaoning shook his head helplessly, "Why do you all like worrying about things that haven’t even happened yet?"

"True." Li Xiaoyan laughed at herself, "I just mentioned Xiaoxian, and now I committed the same mistake. But, I’ve decided that tomorrow I’ll go to Teacher Wang’s house without Second Sister."

"Big Sister..." Li Xiaoning, with a black line across his face, stared at Li Xiaoyan, "Do you think, just by doing this, you can stop her?

You know what kind of person Second Sister is, the more you stop her, the more she’ll want to try. Better yet, you should take her along proactively.

Maybe, if she sees something she’s not satisfied with, she’ll give up on her own, but honestly, Teacher Wang is really good. If he could be my brother-in-law, I would be all for it."

Glancing at her brother putting on a "Little Adult" act, Li Xiaoyan cleared her throat and focused on making her ginger tea, not picking up on his words.

Ever since being in Sha City, her brother had wanted to match her with Wang Qiayu, but she didn’t want to return to her hometown, and Wang Qiayu was still so fond of the school. The disparity between them determined they could not end up together.

As for her sister and Wang Qiayu, if the Wang Family was willing to wait, she didn’t mind helping mediate, but Wang Qiayu was already twenty-eight years old, and her sister still had three years to graduate, how could the Wang Family agree?

Besides, whether her sister’s feelings for Wang Qiayu were truly love or just a passing fancy was still unclear. Plus, given Wang Qiayu’s age, if the Wang Family agreed to wait for her sister, she absolutely couldn’t change her mind later.

...

The next day after breakfast, Li Xiaoyan drove to find Wang Qiayu, and of course, Li Xiaoxian and Li Xiaoning tagged along.

After a night’s contemplation, Li Xiaoxian had fully accepted her sister’s action, believing that her sister’s choice was very sensible.

As a result, she was in high spirits today, chattering non-stop along the way, even humming a few tunes here and there.

Li Xiaoyan glanced at her sister through the rearview mirror, feeling somewhat concerned. Her sister was the quintessential image of a woman in love.

Was she truly happy, or was she worried about seeing Wang Qiayu?

Amidst Li Xiaoyan’s worries, the car stopped at the Wang Family’s doorstep—since Li Xiaoning had been to Wang Qiayu’s house before, finding the Wang Family’s door wasn’t difficult.

Hearing the car, Wang Qiayu came out to greet them first. Li Xiaoyan secretly sized him up, seeing his troubled expression she felt a pang of concern, could it be that Old Sir Wang didn’t agree?

After greetings, Li Xiaoyan lowered her voice, "Teacher Wang, how are things?"

"Sigh, the Old Sir said to talk after meeting you." Wang Qiayu forced a smile, "He refuses to discuss it with me and even scolded me."

"Why?" Li Xiaoyan’s eyes filled with concern.

"Forget it, the same old complaints, he said I’m not worried about my future, instead focusing on those formulas of his, telling me to stay out of his way."

"It’s winter, everything’s cold," Li Xiaoxian muttered under her breath.

Wang Qiayu smiled awkwardly, "You’re right, so I came out to greet you."

"Ha ha..." Li Xiaoxian scratched her head sheepishly, "I was just joking, Teacher Wang isn’t mad, is he?"

"I’m not that easily angered." Wang Qiayu hesitated, then said, "But if my family behaves inappropriately, I hope you’ll forgive them."

Li Xiaoyan quickly responded, "No problem at all, after all, those formulas are truly precious."

"I didn’t mean it like that..." Wang Qiayu’s face flushed a bit red, "They, they might... might..." He hesitated for quite some time, unable to finish his sentence.
