- Getting Intimate

Li Shaoyun had originally wanted her to call him Uncle, there was a certain dignity behind being a generation older after all. Yet he also understood Jing Yunzhao's character. So as to avoid making her unhappy, he changed his mind at the last minute.

He also knew Old Man Xu, and he had even entrusted him to take care of Jing Yunzhao in his place. Considering the fact that he was only older than her by eight to nine years, it wasn't too excessive for him to be considered an older brother.

Li Shaoyun felt that it was as it should be, but Jing Yunzhao immediately stared at him in confusion.

Old Grandpa Tang was also a tad muddled. Didn't this lass say that she didn't have a family before?

"Jing girly actually still has an older brother? Then I must really apologize. This lass and I can be considered friends across the years. To be gathered here today, there actually isn't much going on." He couldn't very well say that he was here to buy the jar right? What if he continued asking about the price? It would definitely attract problems for the lassy. He also couldn't say that this lass was here to treat his grandson's illness. After all, no one was sure whether this older brother who suddenly popped out of nowhere was a close or distant relative.

Li Shaoyun's eyes squinted. "This is…"

The target of his gaze was naturally Tang Zihua.

Tang Zihua was still a young man. It was unavoidable for him to be shocked by Li Shaoyun's appearance just now. His face suddenly flushed, while Old Grandpa Tang's expression remained unchanged as he laughed. "This is my grandson, and also Jing girl's schoolmate."

Li Shaoyun's lips curled. Her schoolmate?

Unlikely.

But even without them saying, he could still make a rough guess.

This little boy was wearing the current hottest brand of clothing in Ning City. The e-watch he was wearing on his wrist might look simple, but one couldn't buy it without at least tens of thousands of yuan. Additionally, this calm and composed old man was dressed with great panache. His identity was definitely not simple. Last but not least, he had looked up that car of his…

In conclusion, saying that they were schoolmates or whatever, it was all a lie.

Li Shaoyun raised an eyebrow, exchanged a few more conventional greetings, and took the initiative to send the two away. From the beginning till the end, he behaved as if he was very familiar with Jing Yunzhao.

Jing Yunzhao currently only had one word dominating her mind: Weird.

"These two must have been from some large family from Ning City?" Just as the car left their sights, Li Shaoyun suddenly asked. Afterwards, he took the opportunity to move closer to Jing Yunzhao and took a whiff, and continued, "You sat pretty close with that kid just now?"

She had the stench of a pill-popper around her.

There was also the scent of medicine on her before, but it was more light and refreshing; Smelling it made him feel comfortable. This time, however, even though there wasn't much difference, but it was similar to the scent on the boy from just now.

Jing Yunzhao was struck dumb. "You can even smell that?"

His sense of smell really defied the heavens.

Li Shaoyun gave a little 'hmph' with pride as he answered, " While I may not understand the art of healing, but I can still tell that male 'schoolmate' of yours is a sickly ghost. Everything looks fine on the surface, but his gaze is exhausted and spiritless, his lips are too pale, his skin also lacks vitality. Then looking at the old man's protective behavior, I can also guess that his illness is definitely not light; He practically already has one foot in his grave. In addition, their family circumstances don't look too bad. But as you are right now, it'd be better if you don't get too close to them."

This girl actually didn't have many schemes.

He could obviously tell that the other party didn't really have any malicious intent against Jing Yunzhao. He didn't have any this time, yes, but what about the next?

With this kind of relationship, if she was lucky, it would be helpful for her. If she wasn't and meet someone with bad morals and was casually plotted against behind her back, she would lose both her life and riches. There would be no way of turning back then.

Originally, Jing Yunzhao was quite unhappy that he was bothering her about her own matters. But although he looked like someone who was both arrogant and quick-tempered, all of his words were simple with a deep meaning behind them, as if he was going out of his way to remind her to, not one to haggle over every ounce.

"I can try to treat his illness. It would also be a pity if something happened to someone as young as him," Jing Yunzhao politely replied.

Li Shaoyun gave her a side glance, speaking obscurely, "I sneezed this morning. Help me take a look at it, in case it turns serious enough that I'll die young."
