Chapter 33 Popular
That day, after An Lian taught Wan Chu’er three martial arts movements, he let her practice her strength by continuously kicking her legs in his small courtyard.
Forward kicks, side kicks, backward kicks... Wan Chu’er clenched her teeth and kept kicking for an hour before stopping, sweating profusely.
An Lian opened the can of food and handed her a spoon, telling her to eat.
Wan Chu’er pursed her lips, wasn’t it said that one shouldn’t eat right after intense exercise?
She chuckled softly, then firmly refused An Lian and left with her coat, stealthily placing the red envelope on the windowsill before leaving.
An Lian looked at the open can, somewhat helplessly. With the lid off, there was no way to return it. Thinking of Bai Zhixi mending shoes in the bitterly cold wind, he just couldn’t swallow it.
How many pairs of shoes would Bai Zhixi need to mend for the cost of these two cans, he thought. And decided that on Monday, when Wan Chu’er was at school, he would visit Bai Zhixi at the Wan Family.
Having been previously berated by Wan Chu’er, An Lian had developed a slight psychological shadow, and subconsciously wanted to avoid meeting Wan Chu’er when seeing Bai Zhixi, even though Wan Chu’er had changed a lot and was even learning martial arts from him.
When Wan Chu’er got home, Bai Zhixi had already prepared everything.
Thirty pounds of pickled vegetables packed into two-pound plastic bags, all the bags then placed in a clean plastic bucket.
