BXBX NOVEL Chapter 433 Pursuing One's Dream (1)
"I\'m so glad you finally let me come to your house. It\'s a very nice place you have here!"
Sitting in the middle of the room was Li Chunhua, who was excited to be in her sister\'s place for the first time.
Li Caiyi smiled faintly and put a glass of ice tea in front of Li Chunhua.
"If you want to come, then you should have just come. You already know the address anyway."
Li Chunhua pouted. "I wanted to. But Jingfei said that I should respect your boundaries from now on. If you didn\'t mention it, it means you don\'t want me to come."
"Eh? Since when did you care so much about what other people think? It\'s not like you at all," Li Caiyi replied in astonishment.
Li Chunhua harrumphed. "What do you take me for? I can understand that much. And I don\'t care about other people, but I care about what you will think of me."
Even after time passed, Li Chunhua\'s obsession with her hadn\'t disappeared. She behaved well the last few months, partly thanks to her friendship with Shao Jingfei, but Li Caiyi was still on guard against her sometimes.
After all, Li Chunhua\'s tricks and manipulation were one of the reasons for her misfortune in her previous life.
Honestly, she preferred one of her friends to stay over, but she couldn\'t find any reason to convince them without revealing anything. Only Li Chunhua would come here and agree with her unconditionally among those she knew.
"You never ask me to come, so I thought you\'d hate it if I come here uninvited. So I waited patiently, and you came to me in the end. You must have been lonely living alone but too shy to ask me to accompany you, right?" Li Chunhua chirped happily, making Li Caiyi feel awkward for treating her like a second option.
"It feels a bit empty, that\'s for sure. I didn\'t know you thought of it that way. Sorry for not inviting you here late."
"Don\'t apologize! I was a bit upset because I\'m not the first one you asked to come, but I don\'t feel like that anymore."
Li Caiyi didn\'t know how to respond, so she changed the topic. "How are mother and big brother? Is everything going well at home?\'
"Yeah. Mom recently took a yoga class, and Big Brother has been in a hermit mode since the beginning of summer break. He is preparing for the college entrance exam."
"I see. I\'m glad everything is peaceful at home."
"En. I never thought our family would have these peaceful days when our father was gone. Thinking back, we should have done this a long time ago."
"The situation is not that simple."
"Why? With Brother Renshu helping us, I\'m sure we can get rid of our father faster. Wasn\'t the reason why he obediently divorced Mom because Brother Renshu pressured him?"
Li Caiyi kept silent. If Meng Renshu hadn\'t regained the memory of his past life, she doubted everything would go that smoothly.
Using the knowledge from the future, he must have pulled some strings behind the stage. Otherwise, there was no way he could secure a spot for Li Jirong like that.
She couldn\'t tell Li Chunhua that, so she instead replied, "We shouldn\'t put our hopes in other people too much. Brother Renshu is kind, but he won\'t be able to help us every time."
"Well, you are right. But I think he won\'t mind since he likes you, Xiaoyi."
"Why are you bringing that up again?" Li Caiyi groaned.
"Xiaoyi, I don\'t understand why you would pick Dai Zhiqiang instead of Brother Renshu. I was pretty sure you used to love him a while back, but now you have fallen for an ordinary guy."
Li Caiyi frowned in displeasure. "What are you saying? Dai Zhiqiang is not ordinary by any means. He is smart, strong, and greatly cares about his family. He is a good guy."
Li Chunhua stuck out her tongue. "Compared to Brother Renshu, he is too ordinary. And I know he has been neglecting you a lot. You have him in his heart, but he is not treasuring it at all. I\'m pissed."
"Where did you hear a rumor like that? It\'s not true. Zhiqiang may look aloof on the outside, but he is very caring to me. Don\'t you remember how he searched for me when I was missing in the mountains?"
Li Chunhua clicked her tongue in annoyance. She was unwilling to admit it, but Dai Zhiqiang was indeed a bit dependable.
Not that it was anything extraordinary. Having Li Caiyi as his girlfriend was already an honor for him, so it was natural that he should treasure her well!
"If he didn\'t do that, I probably would have confronted him. As your boyfriend, he should be able to do that much."
Seeing her sister arguing stubbornly made Li Caiyi sigh in exasperation. For some reason, Li Chunhua was unhappy with Dai Zhiqiang but pushed Meng Renshu to her instead. She couldn\'t guess what was in her head.
"I bet he sauntered his way to your place all the time. Just thinking about it already makes me so angry!" Li Chunhua growled. Her hands clenched into a fist. "Brother Renshu is a gentleman, so he\'d know better not to barge into your room, but I couldn\'t say the same for that rogue."
"Xiaohua, stop badmouthing him. Zhiqiang never forced me to do anything I don\'t like."
In fact, it was Li Caiyi who was aggressively coming onto him, like a lustful old woman. Thinking about their first time in this room made her blush again.
Li Chunhua noticed how her sister grew bashful, and a disdainful light appeared in her eyes. "He is a rogue! Definitely! I can\'t stand that guy because I know he doesn\'t have good intentions toward you! Don\'t ask me how I can tell, though."
It would be bad to continue agitating Li Chunhua, so Li Caiyi cleared her throat to recover from her mistake.
"So, what are you doing throughout the summer break? You haven\'t told me yet."
The sudden change of topic succeeded in distracting Li Chunhua. A satisfied smile spread all over her face as she replied.
"Xiaoyi, I think I know what I want to do in the future!"
