Chapter 72 Unreasonable Desires

Why sigh?

It was simple. In Zhuang Li's impression, Ning Xi always kept a certain distance from boys.

Coupled with Ning Xiangtian's deliberate protection, no boy could get close to Ning Xi.

But now...

Things had changed!

In front of Ye Fan, Ning Xi was unguarded and got along with him very naturally.

Seventeen years old was the age of first love.

Although Zhuang Li didn't want to admit it, Ye Fan was indeed very outstanding among boys of the same age.

He was handsome, calm, and had excellent grades.

Putting aside his background, Ye Fan was indeed worthy of Ning Xi.

However, Ning Xi's father was Ning Xiangtian, the richest man in Xia Country. They were destined to be people from two different worlds.

In addition, Ning Xiangtian already knew of Ye Fan's existence. It was estimated that it wouldn't be long before this kid disappeared from Ning Xi's world.

When the time came, Ning Xi would definitely be sad...

It was precisely because of this that Zhuang Li sighed.

They were destined to be fated, so why bother?

Ye Fan opened the fridge, took out two glasses of lemonade, and placed one in front of Ning Xi. His eyes were filled with love.

"Drink it."

"Thank you."

After many days of being together, Ning Xi didn't hold back anymore. She cupped the teacup with both hands and took small sips.

Ye Fan walked to the door and handed the other glass of lemonade to Zhuang Li. "Even if you don't come in, you can at least drink some water, right?"

Zhuang Li stared at Ye Fan with a slightly complicated expression.

He didn't take it, but Ye Fan didn't retract his hand.

The two looked at each other for nearly ten seconds before Zhuang Li took the glass, took a sip, and frowned.

"What is this? It's too sour!"

"It's fine."

Ye Fan turned his head to look at Ning Xi and chuckled. "It's good that Xiao Xi likes to drink it. You? Just make do."

"..."

The corners of Zhuang Li's mouth twitched twice. He was speechless.

Was this something a human would say?

Turning around and returning to the house, Ye Fan picked up his school bag and sat opposite Ning Xi. He took out the test paper that he had prepared in advance.

"This is the physics test paper. Leave the questions you don't know how to do blank. Leave me some space to write annotations."

"Huh?"

Ning Xi's drinking action paused, her clear eyes were a little dumbfounded.

"You, you put the test paper in your school bag, so why did you ask me to come to your house?"

"To invite you to drink water."

Ye Fan smiled and looked at Ning Xi. "Is the lemonade not good?"

Ning Xi's face instantly turned red.

She hurriedly lowered her head and avoided Ye Fan's gaze. "It's, it's good."

Ye Fan smiled but didn't say anything. He got up and put the test paper into Ning Xi's school bag. "Drink slowly, it's still early. Leave after you finish drinking."

"...Oh."

Ning Xi silently drank the water, her entire body emitting a light aura.

The silence was filled with a slight sweetness.

Happy times were always short.

Before leaving, Ning Xi waved her hand gently, a moving smile on her face.

"See you tomorrow, bye~"

"See you tomorrow."

Watching Ning Xi go downstairs, Ye Fan reluctantly retracted his gaze.

He closed the door, walked into the bedroom, and sat in front of the computer.

He took out his phone, found his mother, Ye Xian's, phone number, and dialed it.

This was the first time Ye Fan called his mother after arriving in the Imperial Capital.

The phone rang once before it was picked up. Then, a familiar voice rang out.

"You stinky brat, you still remember me, your mother?"

Ye Xian's voice was filled with resentment. "You've been gone for almost twenty days and haven't called once. I thought you were kidnapped!"

"Mom, why are you so angry?"

Ye Fan explained with a smile, "I came to the Imperial Capital from so far away. I definitely have to adapt to the environment and learning atmosphere. Also, I have to build a good relationship with my new classmates."

"She is your future wife."

He didn't say the second half of the sentence out loud, or else his mother would definitely ask him all sorts of questions.

Hearing this, Ye Xian's voice softened a lot, and she asked with concern, "Son, are you used to being in the Imperial Capital? "

"If you're not used to it, come back to Linhai to study. I'll beg the principal. You should be able to come back and continue your studies."

"No need."

Ye Fan shook his head and refused. "Mom, I'm doing well here. Oh right, don't watch TV at home every day. Remember to go out and exercise when you're free. It's good for your health."

"Look, even Xiao Fan said so."

Luo Shan's voice rang out on the other end of the phone, helplessness in his voice.

"Alright, alright, I know."

Ye Xian complained, "Really, you don't even let me watch TV. If everyone thinks like you, then the television station can close down!"

The call lasted for nearly half an hour before it ended.

Ye Fan asked in his heart, "System, what level of medical skills do I need to cure Parkinson's Disease?"

In his previous life, his mother had suffered from this disease. After she was diagnosed, she stayed in the hospital for treatment.

However, because his mother had not exercised for a long time, her body functions were very weak, which caused her condition to develop rapidly. In just over a year, her life had come to an end.

Something like this could never happen again.

System: "Level 9!"

Ye Fan was silent for a moment and sighed slightly. He got up and went to the living room. He took out the half-read "Theory of Relativity" from his school bag and sat on the sofa to read it.

In this lifetime, he would not leave any regrets behind!

"Reading for ten minutes, Experience Points +1."

"Reading for ten minutes, Experience Points +1."

…

"Finished reading, Experience Points +100."

Hearing the system's notification, Ye Fan's eyes lit up.

This was the most reward he had ever received for finishing a book, a full 100 points.

Looking at the time, it was already 11:30 pm.

Ye Fan took the book and walked into the bedroom. He placed the book on the floor by the wall. After lying on the bed, he called out his attribute panel.

[Host]: Ye Fan

[Knowledge]: Level 3 (0/2000)

[Intelligence]: Level 3 (0/2000)

[Stamina]: Level 3 (0/2000)

[Medical Skills]: Level 3 (0/2000)

He needed 2,000 Experience Points to level up again. Based on the current speed of obtaining Experience Points, it would take about a month or more.

Moreover, each time the four abilities leveled up, the Experience Points required for the upgrade would increase exponentially.

Level 3 required 2,000 Experience Points, so what about Level 9?

Headache!

However, Ye Fan was not the type of person to dwell on such matters.

As the saying went, one mouthful couldn't make a fat man.

Where there was a will, there was a way.

As long as he accumulated slowly, he would be able to do it one day.

Night quietly fell, and the world became silent.

As the first rays of dawn appeared, the noise returned to the human world.

In the sprint class.

"Morning."

"Morning."

Ye Fan handed the thermos flask filled with lemonade to Ning Xi. "This is today's. I added mint leaves to it. Try it and see if you like it."

"Thank you."

Ning Xi took the thermos flask. For some reason, she felt a little...

No, no, no!

She couldn't think too much about it. She had to pull herself together, pull herself together!!!

"That..."

"Ask whatever you want to ask. Don't be shy."

"I..."

Ye Fan noticed the unnatural look in the girl's eyes and took the initiative to speak, his voice low.

"Do you think the way we get along is a little strange? Or do you think I have any improper thoughts about you?"

"...Yes."

Ning Xi's voice was barely audible, but when she realized the second half of Ye Fan's sentence, she quickly explained, "No, no, I didn't mean it that way. How could you possibly have improper thoughts about me? It's just that the way we get along feels a little... strange."

"Why can't I have improper thoughts about you?"

"Huh?"

Hearing that, Ning Xi looked up and met Ye Fan's deep gaze. Her face instantly turned red, and her voice was filled with shyness. "What did you just say?"

Ye Fan pursed his lips slightly. His eyes were like the lake water blown by the wind, scattering starlight all over the sky. Even if there were thousands of beautiful flowers in the world, they would only reflect one beautiful figure.

"I said, why can't I have improper thoughts about you?"

"You..."

This time, Ning Xi heard him loud and clear. Her eyes widened slightly, and she was stunned.

She wasn't stupid. She knew what he meant. Her mind went blank.

Her gentle and clear eyes were slightly vacant as if she had lost her soul.

"I was just kidding. Do you have to react like this?"

His light words pulled Ning Xi's thoughts back to reality. She heaved a sigh of relief and felt a trace of disappointment deep down, but she didn't notice it.

After coming back to her senses, the girl couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. She turned her head away.

How could he joke about something like that...

Too much!

Ye Fan's lips moved slightly, his eyes revealing deep affection.

The water of the vast sea was hard to come by, except for the clouds on Mount Wu.

Xiao Xi, I really have improper thoughts about you!!!

It was just that he couldn't tell her yet.
