Chapter 460: Chapter 469: You Help
Change Clothes
Li Yifei had bought so breakfast and returned, Chu Xiaoyao had already taken a bath, and she looked much more refreshed. However, her gaze would sotis appear vacant, which was a normal reaction. If she hadn’t shown such responses, that would actually have been more worrying.
"Brother Li, I haven’t been back to school for several days, and I want to return today. The exams are coming up, and I need to attend classes. After classes this afternoon, I’ll co back," said Su Yiyi after breakfast, as she proposed returning to school. Although she was concerned about Chu Xiaoyao, with Li Yifei here, there shouldn’t be any problems. She had always been serious about her studies and placed a lot of importance on exams.
Li Yifei nodded and said, "Then you should go back. Don’t worry about Xiaoyao. I’ll take care of her these next few days, and you can stay at the school in the evening to study if you want to."
"No need, I can read just as well at ho." Su Yiyi then turned to Chu Xiaoyao and said, "Xiaoyao, I’m heading to school first."
Chu Xiaoyao nodded and responded, "Sister Yiyi, don’t worry about . I’m not that fragile, and besides, Uncle will take care of . When you’re not around, I can have him all to myself."
If Chu Xiaoyao had said sothing like that under normal circumstances, Li Yifei would definitely have glared at her, but this ti he gently stroked her hair instead. Whatever Chu Xiaoyao wanted to do, he didn’t want to go against her wishes.
After Su Yiyi left, only Li Yifei and Chu Xiaoyao remained at ho, but nothing indecent happened. Although Chu Xiaoyao still nestled in Li Yifei’s arms, there wasn’t any flirtatious mood.
For Li Yifei, communicating with a young girl like Chu Xiaoyao was sowhat lacking. Apart from encouraging her to move on, he really didn’t know what else to talk about with her.
"Xiaoyao, how about we go on a trip together after Sister Yiyi finishes her exams in a couple of days?"
Chu Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Okay, wherever Uncle goes, I’ll follow."
"Right, let’s go check out the city where you’ll go to university first then."
"I... I want to go to college in Mile City."
"Mile City is a small city, and the schools there aren’t particularly outstanding. It seems like your grades this ti are quite good; you should be able to attend a better school."
"No, I want to be in Mile City, at the sa university as Sister Yiyi, so that I can co ho to be with you every evening."
Li Yifei gave a wry smile, knowing it was no use to argue with Chu Xiaoyao at this point. He tried to switch topics but realized he couldn’t find another one. Fortunately, at that mont, Chu Xiaoyao’s phone rang, sparing him further effort.
Chu Xiaoyao didn’t pick up the phone, but Li Yifei did, and saw a ssage from Little Yue. He rembered this girl, Ye Yunzhu’s cousin, who was very close to Chu Xiaoyao.
"It’s Little Yue calling, answer it quickly."
Only then did Chu Xiaoyao take the phone and upon answering it, Little Yue’s crisp voice ca through, "Xiaoyao, what are you doing? Why haven’t you co to school yet? Today is the day to fill in our university preferences."
Chu Xiaoyao uttered a sound of acknowledgnt and said, "Help
fill it out."
"Are you crazy? Choosing university preferences is important, you can’t just ask
to do it for you. Co here quickly."
Li Yifei hastily said, "You must go to this, I’ll take you there. You won’t have many more chances to gather with your high school friends."
Chu Xiaoyao looked at Li Yifei and then agreed, "Alright, I’ll be right there."
After Chu Xiaoyao hung up the phone, Li Yifei helped her to sit up properly and said, "Go change your clothes."
eting Li Yifei’s gaze, Chu Xiaoyao said, "Uncle, I want you to help
change."
"This..."
"Didn’t you say you wanted , so why haven’t you agreed yet?" Chu Xiaoyao’s eyes imdiately filled with tears, the girl was astonishingly sensitive right now.
"Okay, okay, I’ll help you change. I ant what I said."
"Then hurry up." Chu Xiaoyao imdiately stood up, pulling Li Yifei towards the bedroom.
In the bedroom, Chu Xiaoyao stood by the bed, her large eyes brimming with tears, a hint of excitent mixed with much more shyness, but she bravely kept her gaze on Li Yifei.
For the past couple of days, Chu Xiaoyao had been pitifully sad, steeped in the depths of sorrow, so seeing her like this, even though the request she made was rather troubling for Li Yifei, he still approached her with a smile, saying, "How big are you now, still needing
to help you change your clothes?"
Li Yifei’s tone was filled with an indulgent tone, which made Chu Xiaoyao freeze, her complexion suddenly turned a bit ugly, and her eyes reddened a little. Li Yifei knew imdiately that his words carried a tone of parental care for a child, which reminded Chu Xiaoyao of her deceased parents.
"Haha, then I’m really taking advantage, getting to see a beauty’s body." Li Yifei quickly added another sentence.
Chu Xiaoyao’s face imdiately recovered, and she winked at Li Yifei, saying, "Then why don’t you take advantage quickly, or it’ll be void after the expiry date."
Chu Xiaoyao’s eyes still had a misty layer, and making such a playful expression, it tugged at Li Yifei’s heartstrings, yet he didn’t show it on his face, instead extending his hands, saying, "Then here I go."
"Co on, who’s afraid of who," Chu Xiaoyao pouted.
After changing her clothes, Chu Xiaoyao hooked her arm through Li Yifei’s, saying, "Uncle, you take
there."
With no car at hand, Li Yifei could only hail a taxi to deliver Chu Xiaoyao to school. As she got out of the car, Chu Xiaoyao said to Li Yifei, "Uncle, will you wait for , okay? I’ll be ho after I finish filling out the application."
"I can wait for you, but don’t rush. This might be your last ti to be with so many high school classmates, it’s good to chat more, right?"
"Oh, I don’t want to talk to them. I just want to be with you," she replied.
"We have plenty of ti, no rush."
As they were speaking, Little Yue hurried over from the gate, calling out, "Xiaoyao, why are you so slow? How can you be late on such an important day? I can’t believe you."
Chu Xiaoyao turned around and gave Little Yue a forced smile, saying, "Little Yue."
"Eh, what’s wrong with you?" Little Yue noticed Chu Xiaoyao’s haggard look and the red around her eyes, imdiately grabbing Chu Xiaoyao’s arm, then glaring fiercely at Li Yifei, said, "Xiaoyao, did this uncle bully you? Tell , I’ll vent your anger for you."
Li Yifei suddenly felt a head full of black lines; this Little Yue really had so of Ye Yunzhu’s feisty spirit.
"It’s not the uncle, he’s been really nice to ."
"Then what happened? You clearly just cried, and you ca together with him. If not him, who else bullied you?"
Tears sprung out of Chu Xiaoyao’s eyes as she hugged Little Yue and cried, "My mom and dad... just passed away."
"What?" Little Yue was taken aback all of a sudden.
"I am an orphan now." Chu Xiaoyao added, and then burst into loud crying.
