Fortunate Wife CHAPTER 204: SETTLING THE ACCOUN

T
Li Man panicked without a reason as her heart jumped and screamed silently. She fidgeted and hesitatingly wanted to just run and go inside her room.

At this moment of hesitation, a deep footstep finally fell behind her. Her body turned stiff and she finally decided to just bolt out and run away, when Li Yan's voice sounded in her ears, "Is your butt hurting?"

"What?" his words didn't connect to Li Man's brain for a long time as she stared blankly, not understanding what he meant.

But in a blink of an eye, Li Yan had already walked over to her. His gaze slowly went down from her awkward face, until he suspiciously staring at her hips.

"Is it? Looking at you sitting weirdly like this."

"Your butt's hurting!" Li Yan suddenly understood, and in her anger and embarrassment, she hurriedly jumped up, giving him a death glare, while suppressing the flush that crept out her face without words.

"Oh, how do you know?" Li Yan's lips slyly smirked. He tilted his head slightly while approaching her ear and asked slowly in a deep voice, "Did you take a peek?"

"You..." Li Man trembled in anger. She suddenly pushed him away while gnashing her teeth, "Get away, you rogue!" she screamed as she turned back and ran to the West Room. She slammed the door and firmly closed it.

Li Yan twitched as he looked at the trembling thin door panel, unconsciously furrowed his eyebrows and shook his head, "The door will be broken sooner or later."

"Second Brother?" Little Five couldn't help but frowned after seeing this scene.

Li Yan lowered his head and looked at him, "Go and study your writing."

"Second Brother, you shouldn't be like this. Sister would only think that you're bullying her." Little Five earnestly admonished his brother.

Li Yan instead laughed, "So you already understand this kind of thing?"

Little Five looked at him with a stunned expression, "Of course. Otherwise, Second Brother, who do you think is sister's favorite in this house?"

"It's not me?" Li Yan stroked his chin and acted like he's earnestly pondering.

This smelly brother, Little Five gave him an annoyed glare, "If you haven't noticed, sister has always been the most comfortable when she's with me. And you? Second Brother, you always bully her every day so she's always trying to hide herself from you, how can she like you?"

"I know, Little Five is the best, the most attractive one here." Li Yan reached out his hand, smacked Little Five's head twice and smiled, "Writing for all noon will make you tired. When I on my way home just now, I saw HuZi and the others are playing near the village's entrance gate."

"Really?" Little Five's pair of eyes suddenly got bright, "Why haven't they come and call me out?"

"They let me tell you to go over there. Go and play, you can continue studying in the afternoon." Li Yan took the sand plate from his hand and put it on the small tool nearby.

"Hehe, Second Brother, then I'll go and play a bit. I'll come home later." After hastily saying a few words, he bolted out of the house.

Li Yan bent his lips and smiled amusedly. He looked at the four lines of words written on the sand plate, a total of 20 characters were written, but he couldn't recognize around 10 of them, and another 2 that he couldn't be sure of. His eyebrows unconsciously formed a crease, Little Five really want to be better than him?
