IACF [QT] Chapter 17.1

Arc 1: Blinding (1)

After the sports project, it was the weekend. On Friday night, Xiao Yan received a call from Han Lu.

“Ah Yan, we talked about going out to play last time. Guo Yanyan and the others mentioned it again in the afternoon. We’re going to the amusement park tomorrow. Do you want to come?”

Xiao Yan had just finished taking a shower and was standing on the balcony. In the garden downstairs, the swimming pool reflected the lights. The night breeze blew, making the water sparkle.

He was not interested. “You go.”

“No.”

Han Lu tried to persuade him. “The sports project has just ended. It’s a good time to go out and relax. We have to be nervous again for the monthly exam next week.”

“I have something else to do.”

Han Lu rolled his eyes on the other end of the phone.

“It’s the weekend. What can you do?”

He suddenly remembered something and narrowed his eyes like a fox.

“Even if you don’t want to take a breath, you have to take the little girl to play, right? I remember her hometown is a small place, right? There must be no entertainment facilities there. She has been in your house for so long and hasn’t gone out to play. You are not qualified as a brother.”

Xiao Yan paused and then asked: “What time? Where do we meet?”

Han Lu rolled his eyes again and silently made ‘I knew it’ mouth shape.

Then, he said: “I originally planned to let our two drivers take us, but they want to take the subway and meet at the school gate at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning. Is it convenient for you? Otherwise, you and the little girl can go alone and we could meet at the entrance of the amusement park.”

Most of the students in their elite class came from ordinary families. There were few families with drivers like Xiao Yan and Han Lu.

So when Han Lu heard that they wanted to take the subway by themselves, he didn’t insist, so as not to cause some sensitive topics and make everyone unhappy.

Xiao Yan didn’t care. Although he came from a wealthy family, he was not brought up in a pampered environment.

In his opinion, taking his own car or taking the subway was just a matter of convenience and the other required waiting. However, he was not sure of Su Yi’s wishes.

“I’ll get back to you later.” He finally said this to Han Lu.

On the other side, Su Yi was lying on the bed, flipping through an album of photos of natural landscapes from all over the world.

After she finished looking at the last few pictures, she turned over and lay on her back, combing the hair on Mao Tuan’s belly with her fingers.

“It turns out there are so many beautiful places.”

Mao Tuan was drowsy after being combed by her: [Do you want to see them all? That means traveling around the world.]

“Traveling around the world?”

Su Yi thought about it seriously, “It sounds good.”

Mao Tuan was just about to speak when there was a knock on the door.

Su Yi got up and opened the door.

It was Xiao Yan.

She had just rolled over on the bed, so the collar of her pajamas was a little crooked. Xiao Yan glanced at her inadvertently, then shifted his gaze away, and stared at the door frame, explaining his purpose.

“Amusement park? Is it fun?”

Xiao Yan thought about it for a moment. He himself was not interested in the amusement park and could not say whether it was fun or not, but he knew how to answer this question.

“There are quite a few food stalls.”

Su Yi’s eyes lit up, “I want to go!”

“Should we let Uncle He take us there or take the subway?” Xiao Yan asked again.

“Let’s take the subway. I’ve never taken it before.”

He nodded, “Go to bed early. We will meet at the school gate at 8 o’clock tomorrow.”

The next day, when Su Yi and Xiao Yan arrived at the school, several people had already arrived. After waiting for a few minutes, everyone arrived and walked to the subway station together.

Su Yi was wearing casual clothes today, wearing a baseball cap, and carrying a bag.

Han Lu smiled when he saw her: “Little girl, are you going on an autumn outing? Do you still have a lunch box in your bag? Do you want your brother to help you carry it?”

Su Yi glanced at him and ignored him. She reached back into her bag and searched for a lollipop for a while. She took out a lollipop and handed it to Xiao Yan. Then, she continued to search again.

When she finally took out one for herself and was about to peel off the wrapping paper, a peeled lollipop was suddenly handed to her from the side.

Xiao Yan gave her that one and took the unpeeled one from her hand.

Su Yi didn’t think anything was strange because she gave the candy to Xiao Yan and then Xiao Yan helped her peel it. In her opinion, this was an equal exchange.

She said thank you casually and stuffed it into her mouth.

The two of them performed this set of movements very naturally.

Han Lu accidentally watched the whole process and almost lost his eyes.

Although it was not the first time he saw Xiao Yan eating a lollipop, it was still awkward no matter how many times he did it, not to mention that he even helped his sister peel the candy wrapper. Did she have no hands or something?

Not to mention him, the others were also quite surprised.

After all, they had never seen Xiao Yan get along with his sister before. He looked so cold. They had been classmates for more than a year, and they just nodded to each other when they met on the road.

As a result, in front of his sister, he was so, so…

How should they put it? Although he still had no expression on his face, his aura was very different from usual.

Two female classmates walked at the end. One of them secretly nudged Guo Yanyan and whispered, “I never knew that the flower in the high mountain1高岭花, gāo lǐng huā, is a term used to describe noble and often cold beauties that seem unattainable. It is used to describe something that can only be viewed from a distance and cannot be touched. People or things that can only be admired but are out of reach for oneself. has this side.”
