My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Crazy Beauty -
Chapter 139: The Light Bulb
Chapter 139: Chapter 139: The Light Bulb
Tang Jianjun finished scolding his younger brother, and the family laughed until they couldn’t close their mouths.
This day at the Tang Family was filled with laughter.
The next morning, Tang Jianjun went to look for Gu Beihuai, as they were going to the disaster area.
Tang Chuxia, on the other hand, didn’t sleep in and got up early. Just after getting washed, she saw Wu Haipeng at the door.
"Looking for me?"
Tang Chuxia, holding a youtiao (fried dough stick), looked at Wu Haipeng with confusion.
Wu Haipeng gave a silly smile, looking towards Dangdang, who was also eating a youtiao.
Tang Chuxia got the hint in seconds, realizing she was the third wheel, and quickly took her youtiao to the kitchen to get some spicy soup from Madam Tang.
By the time she returned to the room, Wu Haipeng had already left. Only Dangdang sat there looking silly, still biting half a youtiao, her gaze fixed on the table.
Tang Chuxia leaned over to look and saw two tickets on the table.
"Movie tickets?"
Tang Chuxia laughed, amused that movie dates were still in vogue!
"Going?"
She asked one more question, and Dangdang swallowed the youtiao, "Haven’t decided yet!"
Tang Chuxia teased, "What’s there to think about? Unmarried man, unmarried woman, what’s wrong with two eligible singles watching a movie? Besides, he helped you before!"
Dangdang’s face turned red.
"I’m just worried I’m not good enough for him!" She was shyly candid, which amazed Tang Chuxia.
She couldn’t resist poking Dangdang’s chubby cheeks: "Trust me, he’s head over heels for you, crazy about these two big meatballs!" Tang Chuxia’s finger gently poked one of the meatballs.
Dangdang’s face grew even redder, and she even jumped up from her seat, chasing after Tang Chuxia, intent on twisting her mouth.
She’d never seen such bold talk from her.
Tang Chuxia’s silvery laughter abruptly stopped at the doorstep.
Dangdang ran into Tang Chuxia and, peering under her armpit, saw a person standing at the courtyard gate, truly handsome.
Tang Chuxia covered Dangdang’s eyes: "This one’s not for you, don’t get girl-crazy!"
Dangdang pushed her hand away, whispering a warning: "Don’t wrongly accuse me, who’s got a crush?"
As she spoke, she didn’t forget to turn and secretly wipe the non-existent drool from the corner of her mouth.
So handsome!
She adored him!
Especially because he resembled an exiled immortal, who seemed to have stepped right out of a fairyland.
Dangdang felt that all the adjectives in her vocabulary were inadequate to describe him; her brain could only muster the words "so handsome."
Tang Chuxia pushed Dangdang back into the yard, then went up to Lin Qingchen herself: "Why have you come?"
Lin Qingchen smiled in response: "Zheng Duoqing looked for me!"
Only then did Tang Chuxia remember that Zheng Duoqing had been worried about her health and said he would look for Lin Qingchen.
At that time, she didn’t take it seriously, but it seemed Zheng Duoqing had truly sought him out.
"What did he say?" Tang Chuxia ushered Lin Qingchen into the house.
A visitor is a guest, and since his master was a Taoist, perhaps he had some clues?
Once Lin Qingchen came inside and saw the Tang Family eating, he felt a bit embarrassed.
Madam Tang warmly invited him to sit down and join them for the meal.
Tang Chuxia knew Lin Qingchen had some cleanliness issues, but she didn’t expect him to agree to join them.
During the meal, both Madam Tang and Father Tang kept sizing up Lin Qingchen, who had an extraordinary demeanor that no one could dislike. Plus, Lin Qingchen was very considerate of others’ feelings, and he talked about topics that interested Madam and Father Tang.
In short, he made both of them extremely happy.
Dangdang poked Tang Chuxia, "Does he want to marry you?"
Tang Chuxia felt her teeth ache.
I really can’t understand why a person like Lin Qingchen, who lives beyond the mundane world, would like someone like me.
Didn’t I make things clear that year?
Fortunately, she didn’t answer, and Dangdang didn’t ask further.
After dinner, Father Tang and Madam Tang had to go back to work, leaving only Tang Chuxia, Dangdang, and the elder sister-in-law at home.
The elder sister-in-law would regularly go out for a walk, afraid of not having enough strength during labor, and Dangdang, concerned for her, would definitely accompany her.
As Lin Qingchen sipped his tea, he spoke to Tang Chuxia, "I haven’t been able to contact my martial uncle, but my master has said that your body is no longer in serious trouble!"
Tang Chuxia stretched out her hand in front of Lin Qingchen, "Are you sure?"
Lin Qingchen’s three fingers landed on Tang Chuxia’s wrist, then he frowned immediately.
"How can this be?"
He remembered when he last saw Tang Chuxia, her health was still okay. What on earth happened in such a short time?
Tang Chuxia withdrew her hand, "So your master didn’t tell you that it’s impossible for my body to be completely healed, did he?"
Lin Qingchen shook his head.
He had never thought about this problem before.
"Forget about my body since it’s already like this. We’ll take it one step at a time. But what did you mean by what you said last time?" Tang Chuxia propped up her chin, tilting her head to look at Lin Qingchen.
This man was indeed a sight for sore eyes, a shame he wasn’t her type.
She could only appreciate, not act rashly.
Lin Qingchen laughed, "I was being serious. I really wanted you to consider me!"
While he spoke sincerely, Tang Chuxia became guarded.
"Little Taoist, it’s not that I haven’t considered you. It’s just that I think it’s impossible for you to pursue me simply because you like me!" Tang Chuxia suddenly got serious.
"A few days ago, an old man told me something. He said he was my great-uncle and even tried to have me transfer ’Divine Power’ to Tang Wanqiu, saying that there are secrets to my background too!"
Tang Chuxia leaned in close to Lin Qingchen, her eyes sparkling, "What do you think, is what he said true or false?"
Her fingers couldn’t help but touch the back of her neck.
At least that area had been punctured before.
Lin Qingchen sighed, his fingers resting on Tang Chuxia’s forehead, gently pushing her back a bit, "Being too clever for your own good can be disadvantageous!"
Tang Chuxia nodded, "That’s true, but it’s still better than dying in confusion, isn’t it?"
Lin Qingchen agreed, "My master once said that this world is far more complicated than what we see. It’s not strange for you to encounter your great-uncle, and as for your background, I really don’t know!"
Tang Chuxia had already received the answer she wanted.
"Thank you for not deceiving me. There’s another matter I need a medicine to save someone. Name your price!"
She wrote a name on the table with tea, and Lin Qingchen’s pupils contracted, then he said, "It’s difficult to set a price for that!"
"Just name it, a human life is at stake, it’s always worth a try!"
Lin Qingchen pulled out a small plastic bottle from his pocket, poured out a pill onto a handkerchief, and passed it to Tang Chuxia!
Tang Chuxia’s gaze fell on the white plastic bottle in his hand, and then she looked at Lin Qingchen.
Suddenly, she burst out laughing.
Lin Qingchen, who rarely seemed worldly, rubbed his nose.
"This is convenient!"
He shook the plastic bottle.
Tang Chuxia laughed again, "Indeed, it is convenient. I was being too narrow-minded!"
Indeed, Lin Qingchen’s bearing was so ethereal that she always felt that if he were to tie up his hair and don a white robe, he would surely look like an exiled immortal. Even if he used a bottle, it should be one of white jade porcelain to match his stature.
But what about him?
A white plastic bottle.
Who could accept that once spoken aloud?
"I am just a commoner after all, far less wonderful than you imagine," Lin Qingchen said, and then, tentatively asked again, "Now, would you consider dating me?"
