You hidden in my heart - Chapter 24.3

Chapter 24.3

Lu Yuling realised Li Xining was really angry this time, so he changed the topic. “That’s not okay. I can’t just do whatever you ask me to do. It doesn’t match my noble status as a princess, and anger can easily affect the condition of my skin.”

Li Xining broke through in an instant and laughed angrily. “Why are you so annoying?”

Lu Yuling also laughed. “Why, do you hate it?”

Li Xining said angrily, “You’re just annoying anyway!” But in the end, she asked, “What’s the matter with you?”

Lu Yuling replied, “I can’t send you a video if I have nothing to do.”

Li Xining was helpless. “Are you really bored?”

Lu Yuling stopped laughing and joking, remained silent for a moment, and replied with a serious and focused expression. “I just want to talk to you.”

‘I still want to make you laugh, see your face, hear your voice, and feel like you’re screaming at me.’ However, he was still lacking the bravery to speak up.

Li Xining also became more composed, glancing gently at the screen. “What do you want to say?”

‘Say what? I know your father, and we had a really good relationship. He talks to me like a son and even promises to marry me off to his daughter. That ray of light, that candy, and those stairs on a snowy day are all things I still want to talk about.’

There was a lot he wanted to say, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn’t say a word.

The turbulent ocean suddenly stopped at the shore. He looked up at the light that he had carefully guarded for many years, so he was very afraid that he would scare her away.

And now he was not qualified to say such things to her.

She was so outstanding, but now he was just a little ba*tard, not worthy of her in any aspect.

He wanted to work hard to get up and become better for her. He wanted to stand across from her and look directly into her eyes. He would confidently tell her, holding her hand, “I want to be with you.” But for now, all he could do was preserve her in silence by keeping these words hidden in his heart. Ultimately, all he could do was pretend to be cool and stifle the turbulence in his emotions. He then said, “I want to say good night to you.”

With a small scowl and a hint of disappointment, Li Xining asked, “Nothing else?”

Lu Yuling smiled and replied, “What else do you want to hear?” As soon as he finished speaking, an idea suddenly came to his mind: “You want to hear that you are prettier than the heroine?”

Li Xining’s cheerful disposition vanished in an instant as she was taken aback. Though her tone was composed, she immediately began to worry. “Do you think the heroine is pretty?”

Lu Yuling: “It is stunning. Otherwise, how could she be the heroine? She’s cute, gentle, and has a good temper. By the way, I heard that she’s only 18 this year, the same age as us.”

He hadn’t even watched this drama in actuality. He said what he heard from Ma Pang.

‘Oh, everyone is gentle, cute, and good-tempered, but you are the fiercest tigress.’ He thought while laughing inside his heart.

 Li Xining’s heart began to sour, but her face remained calm, and she responded to Lu Yuling’s words in a covert manner. “Well, I think she’s pretty, too.”

Lu Yuling also remained calm. “Okay, there’s nothing else to do. You can continue watching the show.”

Li Xining ignored him and turned off the video. The screen once again showed the scene of the female protagonist being banged against the wall by the male protagonist, but now she didn’t want to continue watching at all.

She had no desire to watch the movie after the video call, so she simply closed the video.

It was half past eight, too early to go to bed, too late to take a walk, and now the only thing Li Xining could do was study because she lost interest in watching the drama.

‘This annoying guy!’ Gritting her teeth, Li Xining opened the quilt, got out of bed, put on her slippers, went to the desk, sat down, pulled open the drawer, and pulled out a notebook.

Then she took a pen and started writing in her notebook. She had to schedule the make-up time for each topic while also leaving time for homework because Lu Yuling was coming to make up lessons tomorrow.

The WeChat alert rang again just as she was finishing up the plan. Princess Lu’s name flashed on the screen.

Princess Lu: Now, what are you doing? Watching the drama?

Li Xining was furious. “Don’t talk to me; I’m studying!]

When Lu Yuling saw the news, he grinned confidently and logged off of WeChat.

Lu Yuling paused for a while before opening the browser and typing “The Actor of “My Youth Is You” into the search bar.

The search results came out quickly: Shen Siqi.

Age 20, height 183cm, a sophomore in the Performance Department of Zhongzhou Film and Television Academy, a contracted artist under Zhengxing Entertainment

Lu Yuling looked at the photos on the internet and came to the same evaluation: average.

‘The little tigress’s eyesight is not good; she needs to be cured!’

 The words “Zhengxing Entertainment” in the introduction were typed in blue. Because they were more conspicuous, Lu Yuling casually clicked on them and took a look. As soon as the page popped up, he saw a familiar name: Chairman Zhao Hailan.

‘Zhao Hailan…’

Lu Yuling’s memory was very good. He could remember anything after hearing it once. This afternoon in the cafeteria, he heard Li Xining’s grandfather mention this name. He also remembered that Zhao Hailan’s daughter was called Zhao Cichu, the girl who bullied his little tigress.
