Chapter 585: Be Careful, The Road Is Slippery
“Then ask Yang to accompany you. Mo, Li Wazi, and I still need to go to town to deliver the tomatoes so we won’t be able to accompany you.” Ye Liu didn’t feel assured about her going alone.
It was inconvenient for Ye Ling because of his legs. Although it didn’t affect his walking, Ye Yang and the others usually didn’t let him go out while it was raining.
Liu Duo shook her head. “There’s no need. I’ll just go by myself.”
She was only going to fetch Liu Ran home. There was no need for so many people to go. It wasn’t like she didn’t know the way.
Ye Liu saw her being stubborn so he didn’t say anything. He just looked at Ye Yang and used his eyes to communicate with him.
Liu Duo had a rest first after they finished lunch. She then took a look at Ye Ling as he wrote the words he knew before going to get the oil-paper umbrella. She then went out of the door to go and fetch Liu Ran.
Right after her front foot stepped out the door, Ye Yang took a cloak and followed behind her.
Before Liu Duo left the bamboo forest, she felt as though someone was following her. She turned around and saw Ye Yang following her not too close to her and not too far away.
“Yang, where are you going?” Liu Duo looked at him with a puzzled look on her face. Where was he going while it was raining?
Ye Yang didn’t feel any embarrassment for getting discovered by Liu Duo. Liu Duo was holding an oil-paper umbrella, wearing a red dress, and had the green bamboo forest trail as her backdrop. No matter how he looked at it, it looked beautiful, fresh, pure, and slightly charming. This made him unable to pull his eyes away from her.
With regards to Liu Duo looking at him, he slowly replied, “I’m accompanying you to the place where you are fetching Ran Er…”
Upon hearing this, Liu Duo replied straightforwardly, “I already said I don’t need anyone to accompany me.”
Were they treating her as a child who still needed to be accompanied?
“…” Ye Yang just kept looking at her. The expressionless gaze on his face, however, seemed to be saying, These are my own legs. It is my freedom to accompany you!
Liu Duo puckered her lips when she understood the meaning behind his gaze. Did Ye Yang also have such a shameless side to him?
Liu Duo turned around and continued to walk forward. If he wanted to accompany her then let him. It wasn’t like she was going to insist that he head back no matter what, right?
Ye Yang saw this so he sped up his pace and caught up beside her. He took the oil-paper umbrella from her hand and held it for her.
After taking just a few steps, Liu Duo slipped and almost fell down. Thankfully, Ye Yang’s eyes were sharp and he quickly caught her with his hand. “Be careful, the road is slippery.”
It was fortunate he’d come. Otherwise, Liu Duo would’ve definitely fallen down from this slip.
Out of reflex, Liu Duo held onto Ye Yang’s sleeve tightly. She replied somewhat awkwardly, “Oh.”
After she stood still, Liu Duo held onto his arm straight away. She was really glad he had followed her. Otherwise, she would have been covered in mud after her fall.
The two of them then just continued walking towards the school.
They didn’t walk very quickly. While on the road, Liu Duo took a look at the scenery and found that the mist made it look like a fairyland. An era with no pollution was fantastic.
When they arrived at the school, Ye Xuan saw the umbrella Liu Duo used and ran over happily. However, when he saw Ye Yang was also present, the smile on his clearly lessened.
But he reacted very quickly and immediately resumed smiling. “Yang, you also came to fetch Ran Er today.”
“Yeah,” Ye Yang replied, looking at Liu Ran as he packed up his books and prepared to come out.
Liu Duo didn’t even look at Ye Xuan from the corner of her eyes. She was also looking at Liu Ran as he packed up his book.
She felt annoyed every time she saw him smiling so happily!
Ye Xuan came up with a topic and said, “Ran Er has been performing quite well recently. He comes and asks me about parts he doesn’t understand and I explain it to him. However, he still doesn’t quite understand what he learned today. It just so happens I am free tomorrow, so I can go tutor him.”
Liu Duo and Ye Yang heard him and didn’t show any particular expression. In any case, he would go to their house and find Liu Ran no matter what they said.
