Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Ye Linlang saw the sudden darkening of the sky, she could not help but sigh!
“Why is it raining all of a sudden?!”
Jiang Qiran knew that Ye Linlang’s legs were not very convenient, so he quickly helped her to the eaves next to him.
The rain came without any warning. When Ye Linlang saw the raindrops falling on the ground with a pitter-patter, she felt like her mood had gone sour!
She and Jiang Qiran had not reached his house yet!
Moreover, neither of them had brought an umbrella, so they would definitely be drenched!
She felt that everything was not going well today. It was fine if she was bullied and misunderstood by her classmates, but now even the heavens wanted to get involved!
She was unhappy!
…
Ye Linlang leaned against the wall, her expression somewhat sorrowful.
“Even the heavens are bullying me. What should we do without an umbrella? Do we have to wait for the rain to stop before doing anything?”
Jiang Qiran glanced at her. Seeing Ye Linlang’s aggrieved face, he could not help but laugh in his heart.
“Are you that anxious? This kind of rain comes and goes quickly. We’ll probably be fine after a few minutes.”
Ye Linlang looked at the sudden downpour and was not comforted by Jiang Qiran at all.
She turned her head and quietly looked at the youth beside her. Jiang Qiran was carrying a school bag on one shoulder and his shirt was straight. His posture was neat and clean.
In the past, Ye Linlang had always felt that Jiang Qiran was very tall.
Looking at him from such a close distance, she felt that this youth was already more than a head taller than her!
He was only sixteen years old!
If he continued to grow taller, would she have to look straight up to see Jiang Qiran in the future?
Moreover, the closer she looked, the more she felt that the lethality of Jiang Qiran’s looks was like a critical hit. Her heart was about to jump out of her chest!
In the past few days, Jiang Miaomiao had stuffed a few romance novels into Ye Linlang’s hands. Ye Linlang now felt that those sentences describing the male protagonist would definitely not feel out of place on Jiang Qiran at all.
“Looks so good…”
Ye Linlang looked at Jiang Qiran in a daze. Her eyes were absent-minded.
“What’s looks so good?”
Jiang Qiran glanced at Ye Linlang’s absent-minded appearance and could not help but frown. He asked her in a low voice.
Jiang Qiran’s deep cello-like voice brushed past Ye Linlang’s ears. Only then did Ye Linlang realize that it was one thing for her to be love-struck, but she actually said it out loud!
She smiled embarrassedly. She had no idea what to do with her looks-obsessed personality!
It was so awkward. What should she do?
If she admitted that she was complimenting Jiang Qiran’s good looks, would Jiang Qiran think that a girl like her was very shallow?
Well, she was indeed very shallow.
Ye Linlang pursed her lips. She was nervously thinking about how to change the topic when she suddenly caught a glimpse of the sunny weather not far east!
And there was a rainbow hanging on the buildings along the street!
Heavens, it’s so beautiful!
Ye Linlang had always thought that only places like the small desolate village would have rainbows because the ecological environment was better. Who would have thought that they could be seen in a big city like A City!
A rainbow of seven colors hung in the sky, like the most beautiful dream in a fairy tale.
Ye Linlang immediately thought of how to cover up her embarrassment. She hurriedly pulled Jiang Qiran’s arm, completely unaware that her actions were already a little too intimate.
“Qiran, quick, look, there’s a rainbow over there! It’s so beautiful! And there’s actually no rain in the east! The ground there is dry!”
Ye Linlang shouted happily, the gloominess on her face disappeared, and her eyes were filled with the joy of seeing a rainbow.
Jiang Qiran didn’t expect Ye Linlang to change her expression so quickly.
He was originally thinking about how to comfort her.
But Ye Linlang was far more thick-skinned than he had imagined.
Following Ye Linlang’s guidance, Jiang Qiran looked to the east.
Just as Ye Linlang had said, a rainbow hung on the treetops, glistening under the clear sky in the east.
So it was a sunshower?
Jiang Qiran suddenly thought of a poem.
“Isn’t it an interesting phenomenon? The rain comes along with the sun bright…”
Because Su Wan liked the ancient style, there were all kinds of ancient poetry books in the house. Every word was ancient.
Therefore, when Jiang Qiran was at home, he was more or less influenced by Su Wan. He was not as obsessed with the ancient style as Su Wan, but he was more interested in poetry and songs than the average person.
When Ye Linlang heard Jiang Qiran’s words, she immediately followed up with the latter half of the sentence.
“The lady has yet to receive delight?”
Ye Linlang’s words had just left her mouth when she was completely stunned!
Heavens, what did she say?!
As it just so happened that this poem was in the elementary school Chinese textbook, Ye Linlang just happened to know it. She had memorized it very well back then, so who would have thought that it would be used in such an occasion!
This was too awkward!
Would Jiang Qiran think that she was implicitly expressing her interest in him…
Although she really liked Jiang Qiran, that sentence just now was really unintentional!
Ye Linlang twisted her sleeves in a dilemma. She didn’t dare to look at Jiang Qiran’s expression at this moment, and her heart was extremely nervous.
“Don’t misunderstand… I just said that poem out of habit. Coincidentally, it was in the Chinese textbook, and the teacher asked me to recite the entire poem…”
Jiang Qiran looked at Ye Linlang’s flushed face and suddenly felt that Ye Linlang’s incoherent manner was also very cute.
Of course, he understood what Ye Linlang’s words meant, but he couldn’t help but feel vile and wanted to tease her.
“Don’t misunderstand what?”
Ye Linlang’s bright and clear eyes dodged slightly, and she only felt that she had nowhere to put her hands.
“I… Nothing! I just hope you don’t misunderstand that I’m not cultured. I also know a few ancient poems! The poem you said just now was Li Shangyin’s, right?”
The corners of Jiang Qiran’s lips curled up slightly, and he suddenly smiled.
“It’s Liu Yuxi’s ‘Song of Bamboo Twigs’.”
The youth’s voice was clear and bright, but that kind of teasing intent could not fool anyone.
Ye Linlang felt extremely awkward. She was pretending to be cultured!
But she had already set herself a trap. Now, even if she didn’t jump, she had to jump.
Therefore, Ye Linlang could only continue to feign her knwoledge, echoing Jiang Qiran’s words.
“Oh, right! It’s Liu Yuxi’s ‘Song of Bamboo Twigs.’ I was too excited to react when I saw the rainbow just now! I actually knew it!”
Jiang Qiran nodded, but he didn’t expose Ye Linlang’s guilty conscience, nor did he want to continue testing her.
Although that poem was widely spread, Ye Linlang felt that it was a little subtle that she would continue it just now.
The rain comes along with the sun bright, the lady has yet to receive delight…
It was about a young girl’s ignorant thoughts about her first love. She wondered if the boy she liked had any feelings of admiration for her, so she was conflicted.
Then, was Ye Linlang saying the same thing?
Jiang Qiran looked at Ye Linlang’s blushing face indifferently and suddenly felt that there was no need to think too much about this question.
In just a short while, the rain on the horizon had stopped.
Jiang Qiran very naturally held Ye Linlang’s shoulder and asked in a low voice.
“The rain has stopped. Shall we go?”
