"What's wrong with her? Was she infected by me?" Li Han asked with a gloomy expression as he looked at Yuan Chu lying on the bed. While eating today, Yuanchu suddenly had difficulty breathing. He clutched his chest and couldn't breathe. Finally, he almost went into shock. He was so frightened that he immediately sent him to the hospital.

"Probably not." The middle-aged doctor replied, "Her symptoms are more like coming into contact with some highly irritating harmful substances, such as the recently popular A powder, the smell or residue of certain cigarettes, etc. These things It usually appears in crowded bars, KTVs and other entertainment venues, and has little impact on ordinary people, but for you, it can easily lead to respiratory infections or other complications."

"Bar, ktv?" Li Xi frowned slightly and looked at the bodyguard next to him, "Where has Chuchu been today?"

"Miss, after school, she went to the mall to buy some things, and then I sent her home." The bodyguard answered truthfully.

"Nothing special happened?" The school I originally attended had a strict school ethos, and there was absolutely no chance of A-fans or cigarettes appearing. Even if there is, it is impossible to use it in public places. With original wisdom and caution, you will definitely avoid those people or things that are harmful to the body.

The bodyguard hesitated for a moment and replied: "When Miss came out of the mall, she met your aunt, Ms. Li Wenhong."

"My aunt?" Li Xi didn't associate Yuan's illness with her for a while.

The bodyguard continued: "Ms. Li Wenhong seemed to be drunk at the time, with a strong smell of tobacco and alcohol on her body, and she also said some... inappropriate words to Miss Yuanchu."

Li Xi's eyes darkened: "What did she say?"

The bodyguard repeated what Li Wenhong said one by one, such as "Don't think about things that don't belong to you", "You are just an orphan who depends on others" and so on.

"Very good." Li Han's voice was calm, but the anger in his eyes was about to burn others out. "Did you just say that she smelled of tobacco and alcohol?" He couldn't believe what he heard at first. Words, how sad I must be.

Bodyguard: "Yes."

Li Xi asked no more questions, took out his mobile phone and dialed a number: "Help me find out where Li Wenhong has been and what he has done in the past few days?"

An hour later, a text message was sent to Li Xi's cell phone. He opened it and sneered.

Li Wenhong's whereabouts are easy to trace. Just look at her consumption records and it will be clear. There are at least one or two dinner parties every day. In the evening, she dresses up and goes to various entertainment clubs, smoking, drinking, taking powder, and being debauched.

Li Zhi has no control over what she likes to do, but she should never get close to the original state and infect her with germs! How dirty does it have to be to carry those germs

Li Xi thought that he had promised to meet her tomorrow, and an uncontrollable disgust arose in his heart.

"Ahem." A slight cough interrupted Li Xi's thoughts.

"Chuchu, you're awake, how are you feeling?" Li Xi leaned over slightly to check on her condition.

Yuan Chu stared at him carefully for a while, then smiled and said, "I'm fine."

"Is this okay?" Li Zhan was both angry and distressed. He tried to slow down his tone and said, "It's really worrying. You can't do it without me by your side."

Yuan Chu smiled and said nothing, not knowing who it was.

"If you see my aunt in the future, take a detour and don't let her get within 10 meters of you!" Li Xi reminded seriously.

"Why?"

"She's dirty!"

"and you… "

"Don't worry." Li Xisen said coldly, "I won't let her get close to me."

Yuan Chu felt relieved and lay comfortably on the hospital bed, receiving strict water feeding services.

The three brothers and sisters of the Li family will continue to struggle with Li Xi in the future. Li Wenhong was the first and the one who caused the most trouble to Li Xi. If you can take this opportunity to let Li Xi guard against them and stay away from them, you can avoid a lot of harm in advance.

After establishing contact with Li Xi, for Yuanchu, minor illnesses and pains were nothing more than discomfort for a while. As long as the child of destiny is alive, she will not leave this world.

"Chuchu..."

"Um?"

Li Xi said seriously: "You will always be my most important family member." Don't take the nonsense of outsiders to heart.

Yuanchu smiled and said, "I know."

Her eyes were clear and trusting, without any grudge.

Li Xi also smiled. Yes, in his early days, he was always the little angel who used his strength to pull him back from the hands of death, with a clear mind and no fear.

Yuan Chu was discharged from the hospital the next day.

Compared with the hospital, the environment at home is more suitable for recuperation. Li Xi helped her take a week's leave so that she could rest at home and recuperate.

As for Li Wenhong's invitation, Li Xi decisively turned it down. Just kidding, as a germ carrier, it's good that he didn't send her for disinfection. It's impossible to meet her in person. Grandpa also said hello and strengthened the guard to ensure that she would not be allowed to enter the villa.

"Why did you cancel the date suddenly?" Li Wenhong complained into the microphone, "Did someone tell you something?"

"Who do you think said what to me?" Li Xi played with the pen in his hand, expressionless.

"Who else could it be? It's your precious little girl." His contemptuous tone was unconcealed.

Li Zhan stopped playing with his pen and his eyes were cold: "She is a part of our family."

"Oh, we don't have a junior named 'Yuan' in our family. You can raise him if you like, but don't take him too seriously."

"Auntie, don't let me hear any disparaging words about her from you again." Li Xi's words were warning, chilling her bones. The "our family" he refers to does not include so-called relatives like Li Wenhong who are greedy for profit. Only Yuanchu and his grandfather are the family members he recognizes. This aunt who came from a wealthy family but was willing to fall into depravity has long been excluded by him.

"Tsk, tsk, ok, I understand. She is yours anyway, you have the final say." Li Wenhong secretly laughed at her, young people are full of emotions and prone to commotion. When he is in his twenties or thirties and sees the colorful world, he will probably not take an ordinary little girl to heart.

Li Zhan didn't care what she was thinking and changed the topic: "I know what you want from me, but I can't move too much money here, but I can introduce you to a few strong investors."

Li Wenhong has always been proud of her ability to dance and be able to get along with all kinds of people, but she has forgotten the importance of identity and reputation. A courtesan and a socialite are not on the same level at all. She blurred the boundaries and was already excluded from the celebrity circle, but she was completely unaware of it.

This woman not only spoke ill of Yuanchu and caused her to get sick, but also instigated their relationship. How could Li Xi let her go so easily

There are many pitfalls for dealing with such a self-respecting, biased and short-sighted person.

Although Li Wenhong was dissatisfied with Li Xi's pushback, he was very satisfied with the investors he introduced. Since he offered her connections, what reason did she have for not accepting it? Compared with Li Xi, a boring junior, she prefers to play with unspoken rules with mature business people.

Li Wenhong hummed a song, preparing for the next adult game. She didn't know that she would never have the chance to step into the old man's villa or enter Li Xi and Yuan Chu's life circle.

After dismissing Li Wenhong, Li Xi went to the kitchen and brought a plate of fruit to the flower hall.

Yuanchu sat next to a curved glass wall, leaning on a soft pillow on his back, holding a novel in his hand, browsing quietly.

She wore a mask on her face, revealing only a pair of clear eyes. Her shoulder-length hair fell obediently, and her loose home clothes made her look as petite as a kitten.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines into the room, one person with a book, one table and one chair with a cup of tea, warm, soft and peaceful.

Li Xi gently placed the fruit plate on the table and sat casually on the carpet beside her.

The surging luck instantly pulled her original mind away from the book. She raised her head and looked at the young man beside her quietly.

"It's time to rest." Li Chan took the book away from her hand, took off her mask, then picked up a piece of fruit pulp and handed it to her mouth.

Yuan opened his mouth and bit it, then put on the mask again.

"Don't be so careful." Li Zhan rubbed her head, "I won't be infected by you."

People who have a cold are not qualified to say such things.

I originally knew that it would take at least five or six days for Li Xi to recover from his cold. During this period, he must avoid cross-infection.

Li Xi casually picked up a piece of fruit pulp and prepared to put it into his mouth.

Yuanchu grabbed his wrist, took away his fork, replaced it with a new one, and put it in his hand.

"Don't share tableware." She looked at him seriously and reminded him to pay attention to personal hygiene.

Li Xi felt aggrieved: "... Chuchu disliked me." Although he protested, he did not refute. After all, he was also worried that his cold would be transmitted to her.

After chewing a few pieces of fruit pulp, Li Xi suddenly said: "Chuchu, you can skip a grade."

Yuanchu: "Huh?"

"I think I'd rather have you stay with me. I feel more at ease." Thinking of the age difference between the two of them, when he graduated from college and Yuan was only in high school, and they weren't together for a long time, he wouldn't know if she was bullied.

Yuanchu asked: "How many levels should I skip?"

"Of course, jump directly into college." Li Zhan said matter-of-factly, "I believe in your ability."

Yuanchu: "..." Jumping directly into university from the first year of junior high school? Would it be too showy

Li Xi seemed to see through what she was thinking, and tried his best to persuade him: "Look, two years ago, there was a child named Zhang who was admitted to college at the age of 10. Five years ago, 13-year-old Yang became the first person in the country's history The youngest doctoral student. There are many talented students skipping grades every year across the country. You will be 12 years old next year, and there is no problem in going to college."

Original: It sounds reasonable.

"Twelve years old is already considered a relatively late maturity age for gifted children."

Original: “…”

"Chuchu, come to Qingda University as soon as possible, I'll wait for you." Li Xi looked at her with burning eyes, and his luck was surging.

Unable to resist the fateful offensive of the Son of Fortune, Yuanchu finally agreed.

"Nonsense." Grandpa Li heard about this and immediately scolded Li Xi.

Even though she was originally very smart, it still took a lot of effort for her to go straight from junior high school to university in one year. She is not in good health to begin with, but if she is made to work so hard, won't this grandson's conscience feel painful

Li Xi said patiently: "Grandpa, believe me, Chuchu can do it."

Grandpa Li didn't believe it at all. With Yuan's current results, she wouldn't be able to reach the college entrance examination level in a short time, not to mention that she was going to be admitted to a top university in the country.

"Let Xiaochu take his time, and don't make trouble for me."

"Grandpa, let's make a bet." Li Xi said with a smile, "If the junior high school reaches the first place in her age group this semester and stays at the end of the semester, you agree to let her skip a grade."

Grandpa Li snorted coldly: "You can make this bet, but you have to promise not to put pressure on Xiaochu behind your back and let her express herself freely."

Li Xi raised two fingers: "I promise."

He didn't need to do anything extra at all, because he knew that she would do whatever she promised at Chuchu.

Therefore, under Grandpa Li's urgent attention, Yuanchu changed from his usual low profile from the beginning of this semester, and his grades improved rapidly. He topped the grade for the first time and never came down again, which shocked a lot of people who didn't know the truth. teachers and students.

Grandpa Li: If you say number one, then number one. I don’t understand the world of top academics.

A year later, with Grandpa Li's consent, Yuan Chu applied for the entrance exams for high school and university. Finally, she ranked tenth in the province and skipped a grade to be admitted to Qingdao University, officially becoming Li Xi's junior schoolmate.

This year, Li Xi was 20 years old and Yuan Chu was 13 years old.
