Chapter 32 Parents’ Worries

“Who’s here, Blackie?” A girl of fifteen or sixteen appeared in the doorway.

The girl was wearing a yellow short-sleeved T-shirt and blue jeans. She was a little over 160cm and had a small face the size of a palm. Her features were delicate, and her dark eyes seemed to speak. Her gaze was full of surprise, as if she were asking Li Yi, “Where did you come from?”

“Brother! Why are you back? So suddenly!” Li Wenxiu looked at Li Yi and asked happily.

“Of course I came back in a car! It’s not like I walked back here.” Li glanced at his sister as if she were a fool, as if to question why she was asking such an idiotic question.

“Dad! Mom! Brother is back. He bullied me the moment he got home.” Li Wenxiu’s face was twisted with anger. She shouted into the house in exasperation and complained to her parents.

Li Wenxiu had just finished speaking when hurried footsteps came from inside the house.

Not long after, Li Yanshun and Ye Huilan appeared. They saw Li Yi playing with the black dog.

“Behave yourself, kid. Don’t bully Wenxiu when you’ve only just returned home,” Li Yanshun said to Li Yi with a smile, but there was no reprimand on his face.

“Hmph!” Li Wenxiu seemed to have found a backer. She stood beside her father and snorted at Li Yi.

“Little Yi, you’re back! Are you hungry? There’s still food. I’ll heat it up for you.” Ye Huilan turned around and was about to go to the stove.

Li Yi quickly stopped her. “Mom! Don’t bother. I’m not hungry. Wait until dinner!”

“Sigh! Come into the house! Stop playing with Blackie. This fellow hasn’t bathed Blackie in a while.” Ye Huilan nodded and called out to Li Yi.

Li Yi smiled and nodded and went into the yard.

The stone walls enclosed a twenty-square-meter yard with a small well in the corner and a sink. Beyond that was the kitchen. There were three room doors on the right side of the courtyard, a living room in the center, a utility room on the outside, and a bedroom on the inside. There was another floor upstairs.

The mottled wall opposite the living room was covered with awards. There were twenty or thirty of them and they all looked very old.

Li walked into the living room and froze. Two women his mother’s age were looking at him kindly.

“There were other guests in the house?’

Li Yi looked to his mother for help.

“This is your eldest aunt, and this is Auntie He. Hurry up and greet them!” Ye Huilan smiled and introduced the two guests to Li Yi.

“Aunt He!” Li Yi greeted them with a smile. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ n0vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

“Little Yi, you’re back! You’re really tall and handsome!” The eldest aunt looked Li Yi up and down and praised him happily.

Auntie He was also full of smiles and kept nodding. It was like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law. The more she looked at him, the more she liked him.

“I’m flattered!” Li Yi replied modestly. They were staring at him, and he looked at his father and mother in confusion.

However, Li Yanshun and Ye Huilan did not seem to notice. They smiled and chatted with them. On the contrary, their younger sister, Li Wenxiu, covered her mouth and giggled. She looked like a chick who had stolen rice.

“What’s the situation, these two?” Li Yi whispered as he approached Li Wenxiu.

“Hehe! What situation? I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Li Wenxiu giggled and pretended to be confused. “I’ll pay for your answer. That should do it, right?” Li Yi rolled his eyes before tempting her.

Li Wenxiu’s eyes lit up. “How much?” she asked happily.

Li held up a finger and indicated. This much.’

“No, I want this amount and you have to pay me first,” Li Wenxiu demanded. She gestured at Li Yi with five fingers.

x”Sure! Let’s go up and talk.” To get the exact details, Li nodded cheerfully.

Li Yi smiled and excused himself. “Mom, Auntie, Auntie He, you guys chat. I’ll go to my room and put down my things.”

With that, Li Yi headed upstairs with Li Wenxiue following happily behind.

Back in his room, the first thing Li Yi did was transfer money to his sister.

Li Wenxiu was stunned by the amount of money Li Yi had sent her. She looked at him, at a loss.

“I’ve already given you the money, why are you still standing there! Hurry up and say it!” Li Yi urged him impatiently.

Li Wenxiu was overjoyed. She accepted the money and introduced, “Didn’t we just build a new house? Many people have come to our house these days. They were all invited by Dad and Mom. It seems like they want to arrange a blind date for you! There’s a girl from the Xu family who’s studying at a university in Rong City, and a girl from the Lin family. She seems to be working very close to you in Peng City. I don’t know about the ones coming in today.”

They were arranging a blind date for him?

There must be a mistake!

“What are they doing? Weren’t they just building a new house? Do I need a blind date?” Li Yi asked in disbelief.

“I don’t know about that. Anyway, there are quite a lot of bachelors in our village. There are more than 60 of them! Dad and Mom are afraid that you’ll be like them and end up not being able to find anyone! So, they decided to help you as soon as possible!” Li Wenxiu was delighted and explained happily.

In the village, Li Yi had heard a little about the number of people who were single,

Nowadays, it was already very common for there to be many single women in the city and many single men in the countryside.

Li Yi was beginning to understand his parents’ concerns. But surely that won’t happen to him!

After a moment’s thought, Li Yi decided that he would find time to speak frankly with his parents and explain his current situation so that they would not worry over nothing.

While Li Yi was deep in thought, Li Wenxiu stared at the screen of her phone in a daze. She flipped through her bank account again and again to confirm the balance.

“Is there nothing else?” he snapped at his sister.

Li Wenxiu didn’t care about Li Yi’s attitude. Instead, she looked at him with a face full of joy and asked enviously, “Brother, have you earned a lot of money recently? You’re rich and imposing. I didn’t know that you were planning on sending me a thousand!”

“Really? What did you five fingers mean then?” Li Yi was stunned for a moment and looked at Li Wenxiu.

“Hehe, it’s a secret! It’s already done.” Li Wenxiu stuck out her tongue playfully. She didn’t dare to reveal this secret to Li Yi, or else he would go crazy from anger.

Li Wenxiu didn’t know why Li Yi had suddenly become so rich and generous. She actually wanted 50 yuan from him and he could have easily bought her over with just 50 yuan. Who knew that her brother would transfer 5,000 yuan?

It increased by a hundred times in an instant. Li Wenxiu was so happy and she couldn’t contain her excitement. She had gotten rich!

Li Yi glared at Li Wenxiu. At this moment, he was still thinking that Li Wenxiu had only wanted 500 and did not know that he had given her way more than she asked for.

“Are you alright? Let’s go out! i’ll take a nap. I’ve been sitting in the car all day. I’m exhausted!” Li Yi waved his hand and chased him away.

“Yes! Sleep! I’ll wake you up for dinner later,” Li Wenxiu, who had just become a little rich lady, was in a good mood and replied obediently.

With that, Li Wenxiu left the room and didn’t forget to close the door before leaving.

After putting the laptop on the desk and taking off his shoes and socks, Li Yi lay on the bed and his consciousness appeared in the library.

Soon, Li Yi’s mind sank into a huge book. He wandered in the ocean of knowledge and could not tell the time at all.
