"Hur hur, good, good child!"

Chen Yu's face was filled with a gratified smile as he nodded.

After dinner, Chen Yu left Lee Hao to chat for a while. The more they chatted, the more satisfied they became with Lee Hao.

In a blink of an eye, it was already 9 pm. Old Master Chen looked at the clock on the wall and stood up. "Lee Hao, it's getting late. Why don't you go back earlier?"

"Yes, goodbye teacher."

Lee Hao also stood up from the sofa and nodded.

"Chen Xi, hurry up and send off Lee Hao."

When Chen Xi's grandmother saw Lee Hao get up, she immediately urged Chen Xi to send Lee Hao off.

"I told Old Liu to drive a little more, and they'll be back at school soon."

Elder Chen said. But before he could finish, he was interrupted by Grandma Chen Xi's glare.

"It's so close to the school, what kind of car are we riding? "Besides, after dinner tonight, young people should be healthy after taking a walk!"

Grandma Chen Xi pulled Chen Xi along as she said with a smile, "Lee Hao, why don't you take a walk with Chen Xi and ask her to call a taxi to come back later?"

"Grandmother!"

Chen Xi looked helplessly at her incomparably passionate grandmother, pouting coquettishly.

"Be good!"

Grandma Chen Xi patted Chen Xi's head and opened the door.

"Let's go."

Lee Hao rubbed the bridge of his nose and walked out of Elder Chen's house with Chen Xi.

"You old geezer, what a blockhead."

After Lee Hao and Chen Xi left, Chen Xi's grandma turned around and glared at Elder Chen grumpily.

"What's wrong?"

Old Master Chen scratched his head and asked in puzzlement, "Lee Hao is not bad, but it's up to her whether she likes him or not. Aren't you afraid to force her into this?"

"What do you know?"

Grandma Chen Xi said, "Have you ever seen our Chen Xi take the initiative to pick someone up? "If she doesn't feel anything for Lee Hao, with her personality, if she isn't willing to give it to Lee Hao, then no matter how I asked her just now, she would definitely refuse without hesitation."

Hearing his wife's words, Old Master Chen also nodded his head, feeling that what she said was quite reasonable.

"Because Chen Xi was weak when she was young, you took her to live and recuperate in seclusion on the mountain. She's used to being cold, so even if she's tempted, she doesn't know how to express it. If I don't push her, would I let her miss out on such a good guy for nothing?"

Chen Xi's grandmother sighed. "Our poor Chen Xi lost her parents when she was young. We, her parents, would never be able to accompany her forever. I really hope that someone reliable could be by her side to treat her well!"

"I know what you mean."

Old Master Chen nodded and said, "I also have a good impression of Lee Hao. If they can really get together, then I think it's pretty good."

"..."

The moonlight shone like water as Lee Hao and Chen Xi walked side by side on the road. Under the street lights, their shadows were stretched out behind them until they finally merged together, making them look like one person.

Chen Xi lowered her head and didn't say anything. She quietly walked beside Lee Hao like a beautiful fairy.

Looking at the elegant and refined girl beside him, Lee Hao couldn't help but compare her to Fairy Chang'e that he had seen in the Wechat.

In the end, they came to a conclusion — both of them had their respective beauties. However, Chang'e had a tinge of dignity, while Chen Xi had a tinge of intelligence.

"Tonight's food is really delicious. My wife's cooking skills are so good. You really have a lucky mouth all these years!"

After clearing his throat, Lee Hao was the first to break the silent stalemate as he spoke with a smile.

"Not bad."

Chen Xi responded with a light sound, but she could only smile wryly in her heart.

Since she was a child, her body had always been weak and sickly. Her childhood memories were basically soaked in a medicine jar, and using traditional Chinese medicine to treat it also had many contraindications. How could she have the luxury of tasting delicacies in the past?

"Chen Xi, I have to give you a suggestion."

As the two of them walked, Lee Hao suddenly stopped walking and said while looking at Chen Xi with a serious expression.

"Ah?" "What?"

Chen Xi was slightly shocked as she raised her head to look at Lee Hao. A sliver of panic flashed across her eyes unnoticeably.

"You're so good-looking, why are you wearing a cold expression on your face?"

Lee Hao walked in front of her and said as he looked at Chen Xi's clear eyes with his bright eyes.

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment before a trace of happiness surged into her heart. It was as if a drop of honey had silently melted into her chest and a faint sweetness emerged.

Was he praising her beauty?

Thinking of this, the corner of Chen Xi's mouth rose into a sweet smile.

"That's right! Look at how beautiful this is! "

Lee Hao looked at Chen Xi's shy expression under the moonlight and couldn't help but be stunned. He then smiled and said, "A beauty at your level, if it wasn't for the fact that your face is cold, the people chasing you in the school would have formed an even stronger company!"

Chen Xi lightly shook her head with a slight smile on her face. The distance between the two of them had suddenly become much closer.

Lee Hao and Chen Xi didn't walk very fast. When they arrived at the back door of the school, it was almost 10 PM.

"Chen Xi, it's getting late. You should go back earlier."

At the foot of the mountain at the back door of the school, Lee Hao stopped and said.

"Alright, then I'll see you at class tomorrow."

Chen Xi nodded.

But just at this moment, three figures suddenly walked out from a pitch-black corner. The person in the lead was a man with yellow fur and a ferocious green dragon tattoo on his arm.

"Brat, your name is Lee Hao, right?"

These three guys obviously had bad intentions, so they surrounded Lee Hao and Chen Xi.

"Who are you? What do you want to do? "

Chen Xi glared at the menacing trio and questioned them loudly.

"Hehe, what are you doing? We are all adults now, beautiful ladies, tell me, what can big brother do? "

The leader of the yellow-hair group looked at Chen Xi with a drooling expression, then said with a strange smile.

"They must be people that Wang Yun hired."

Lee Hao pulled Chen Xi and whispered into her ear.

Ever since he humiliated Wang Yun in class yesterday, he knew that Wang Yun would think of a way to deal with him. After his relationship with the school was blocked by Elder Chen, as expected, he used his social connections outside the school to get revenge on him.

"What should we do?"

Chen Xi's body tensed up, and at that moment, she was also extremely nervous.

"I'll get their attention. Run."

Lee Hao whispered into Chen Xi's ear. Then, he stepped forward and stood in front of Chen Xi, pretending to be calm as he said, "How dare these small fry come and cause trouble for me?"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly rushed towards the yellow haired bully in the lead, instantly attracting the attention of the three hoodlums. At the same time, Lee Hao suddenly turned around and shouted at Chen Xi behind him: "Run!"
