The tire was punctured and leaking air.
Gu Xinglan composed herself and removed the embedded nail.
The nail was extremely sharp. Suddenly, the back of my head was pressed down, and my eye almost went into the nail.
He quickly let go of her hand and stood up.
It turned out to be the same group of people I had encountered before.
"You can't predict luck. I just got out of detention and then I saw you. God is giving me a chance."
Ye Shang casually chewed on his cigarette, then tossed the butt at Gu Xinglan's feet.
"I slashed your car, and now I'm going to beat you up too."
After the leader finished speaking, several blond-haired men behind him pulled out large sticks.
Gu Xinglan remained silent for less than two seconds.
The stick flew right at me.
These people are now coming to seek revenge because he was detained.
But before the stick could even hit him, the two blond-haired leaders were kicked away by Li Hetai, stick and all.
Li Hetai, with his agile movements, charged into the yellow-haired herd like a cheetah.
The boy lowered his center of gravity slightly, his muscles tensed, ready to strike. Facing the stick swinging from the side, he neither dodged nor avoided, but blocked the blow with his forearm. Then, using the force of the stick's rebound, he turned around and slammed his knee into the opponent's abdomen.
The blond-haired boy squealed and screamed, clutching his stomach and rolling on the ground in pain.
Ye Shang, who was hiding behind, flinched, his hair standing on end from the sudden appearance of the person.
When did Jiangtong Town produce such a person?
He can take down two people with one kick?!
Before Ye Shang could react, Li Hetai had already rushed in front of him and delivered a hook punch to his chin.
He tilted his head back and staggered back a few steps. Li Hetai pressed his advantage and kicked the yellow-haired man in the outside of his thigh.
He lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Gu Xinglan wasn't idle either; he was collecting the large sticks, but before he could finish, the battle was over.
No, it's only been two minutes, how come they're all lying on the ground?
"You! You just wait!" Ye Shang scrambled to his feet, his face flushed red.
But when Li and Tai glanced at him, he suddenly wilted, stammering and unable to speak clearly.
"and many more."
Several blond-haired men tried to leave but were detained.
Li Hetai placed the stick on the side of his face.
The dark, piercing gaze made everyone freeze in their tracks.
Why are they blocking your way?
The moment Li Hetai turned around, his face became incredibly innocent again, as if what had just happened was all an illusion.
Gu Xinglan didn't mince words and explained the whole story, finally adding weakly, "It was a good deed."
"Yes, it's a good deed."
Li Hetai lowered his head, a slight smile playing on his lips.
The blond-haired men behind him looked at Li Hetai's profile, exchanged glances, and didn't know what to say. In the end, several blond-haired men were dragged along as laborers to pull the car to the repair shop to find a mechanic.
Gu Xinglan called the Li family.
The call was clearly meant for Li Yuan, but it was Li Jianbai who answered.
"Xiao Bai, the car got punctured. I want to stay outside with Li Hetai for another day, and then go back tomorrow."
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone before someone finally spoke: "[Do you really want to stay outside?]"
They didn't play yesterday; it was almost evening by the time they finished their hospital check-up.
I didn't play this morning either, because a few blond-haired guys blocked my way and my car got punctured.
Seeing Li Hetai tugging at his sleeve, Gu Xinglan whispered, "Yes."
Laughter came from the other end: "[Okay, I'll cover for you.]"
Li Jianbai is, after all, the third master of the Li family. Since the third master has spoken, what else does he have to worry about?
Bathed in sunlight, Li Hetai was led by him to the ginkgo forest on the outskirts of Jiangtong.
There are many ginkgo trees here.
There are many such trees in the Li family's residence.
Before the two even got close, the golden expanse came into view.
When the sunlight shines on them, the leaves seem to be coated with a warm light, shimmering in the sunlight.
Walking along the winding path, you'll find layers upon layers of fallen leaves under your feet, making a soft "rustling" sound as you step on them.
Gu Xinglan tiptoed and reached out to touch the drooping branches. The ginkgo leaves swayed gently on his fingertips, making a crisp sound.
He turned his head and smiled slightly at Li Hetai, saying, "The people who came with me last time said that there are beautiful views here, and it really is beautiful."
Everything was golden, like stepping into a golden house.
There are few traces of human development in the suburbs.
The ground was covered with fallen leaves.
Fortunately, the sun has been shining brightly these past two days.
If it rains, this place cannot be visited.
Li Hetai, through those lights, only wanted to keep his gaze fixed on someone forever.
My heart was pounding, and I didn't want to blink until my eyes started to sting.
"I also know a good place."
Li Hetai took Gu Xinglan's wrist and led her forward.
There are also stairs leading up the mountain.
We walked for a long time, until the stairs began to blur.
There are many butterflies on the mountain, but they don't come down easily.
Li Hetai stepped over the stairs and bowed slightly towards a tree.
The next second, Li Hetai started running, using the tree trunk as a springboard to somersault, kicking his feet hard against the thick trunk before landing steadily on the ground.
The force was extremely swift; the entire thick tree trembled slightly. With just this simple movement, in an instant, the butterflies that had been disguised as leaves and hidden among the branches seemed to have been switched on, and all of them swarmed out.
The withered yellow and bright yellow hues scattered everywhere.
The two men covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves and squinted as they watched the startled butterflies flutter about before slowly moving to other trees to disguise themselves as yellow leaves.
Gu Xinglan was somewhat taken aback.
He had never seen such a sight before. If Li Hetai were to do a few more somersaults, he would almost wipe out the butterfly's home.
Gu Xinglan lowered her eyes, unsure how to react.
Images flashed through my mind intermittently.
Li Hetai, in the end, is still Li Hetai from his previous life. He will do the same things he did in his previous life in the present.
"Does it look good?"
Not far away, the color of Li Hetai's eyes was no longer a deep black.
He could see his own reflection in those eyes.
You could even detect a hint of anticipation in their expressions.
"Good-looking, very good-looking."
The moment Gu Xinglan nodded, the boy's eyes lit up with a smile.
Even with their mouths and noses covered, the two people could still feel each other's laughter.
Li and Tai are not quite the same as before.
Or rather, when he was with her, he displayed a different side of Li Hetai.
The two strolled back slowly, ate their meal on the street, and then went to a nearby internet cafe to play games.
When Li Hetai saw someone drinking beer from a bottle, he turned to Gu Xinglan and asked, "What does the beer taste like?"
Remembering this, Gu Xinglan asked Li Hetai, "Why did you want to go to the bar before?"
“Last month, I met my grandfather. He said that I’ve reached a certain age and should start training my alcohol tolerance, as it’s a skill needed for social occasions. I want to start training in advance.”
Li Hetai blinked slowly, his gaze fixed firmly on Gu Xinglan's face, not missing the slightest micro-expression.
"..." Gu Xinglan fell silent.
How could you teach Li Hetai to drink? Is this something a grandfather should do? Before Gu Xinglan could frown, she heard Li Hetai say quietly, "Gu Xinglan, will you teach me?"
These words really startled Gu Xinglan.
