Chapter 167 The Shy Girl



Chapter 167 The Shy Girl

He couldn't hold it in any longer; he was about to ejaculate. In a panic, he grabbed a straw hat from a nearby stall to cover himself, walked to the side, and then released his pent-up desires.

Below, "醭bu~醭醭bubu~~"

Above, "yue~yueyue~~"

Below, "醭bu~醭醭bubu~~"

Above, "yue~yueyue~~"

After releasing his pent-up energy, the man had a chance to catch his breath and quickly left the scene of the crime.

Boss of the Straw Hat

"Hey, sir, you haven't paid yet! Hey, come back here! Yue~yue~, what's that smell so awful?"

The straw-hatted shopkeeper saw a bright yellow puddle of excrement on the ground and immediately vomited.

"yue~~~"

"Heartless bastard, deserving a thousand cuts, someone actually defecated in public on the street! Ugh, they have absolutely no sense of morality! Ugh!"

Passersby covered their noses.

"My God, has he lost his mind? He needs to poop, so he should go to the outhouse!"

"Who says otherwise? The outhouse isn't far from here, how can you be so lazy?"

"Let's go, let's go, it stinks here!"

After a while, a few old men came and cleaned the ground while cursing and swearing. They cursed the person who took the dump for eighteen generations of ancestors, using extremely vulgar language.

The man who had been following Ziying went home, took a shower, changed his clothes, and even got some medicine to take.

But even after taking the medicine, he continued to vomit and have diarrhea, and he felt completely weak.

He then squatted in the outhouse while thinking.

As expected, a despicable person like him, who lives in the gutter, doesn't deserve to eat such virtuous food.

It's a pity that Miss Li put in so much effort.

……

Li Shuchen has made a fortune these past two days, counting money until his hands cramped.

Happily practicing calligraphy in the Three Treasures Hall

Grape: "Miss, a young lady named Shuxue says she's looking for you."

Li Shuchen looked up upon hearing this.

"Miss Shuxue, please invite her in."

"Yes, miss"

a moment later

"Miss, Miss Shuxue has arrived."

"I, Shuxue, have come without presenting a formal visiting card. Please forgive my abrupt arrival, Miss Li."

After speaking, he bowed respectfully.

Li Shuchen quickly helped him up

"Miss Shuxue, you're too kind. I happen to be free anyway, so your presence allows us to exchange some jokes."

Shu Xue glanced at the brush marks on the paper on the desk—marks that resembled neither writing nor drawing—and asked...

"Is Miss Li practicing calligraphy?"

"Yeah, I had nothing better to do, so I thought I'd practice. Pretty good, right?"

Shuxue awkwardly squeezed out a few words.

"Miss Li is unique, and her handwriting is unique too."

Li Shuchen laughed heartily.

"Miss Shuxue, you flatter me. Grape, go to the kitchen and get some golden fried chicken wings and honey lemonade for you to try."

"Yes, miss"

Upon hearing this, Shuxue picked up the purse at her waist and said...

"It's only been a few days, and Miss Li has already come up with new dishes. How could I possibly use Miss Li's things for free? Shuxue will buy them with silver."

Li Shuchen pressed down on Shuxue's hand as she took the silver.

"A guest is a guest, no need to pay. This was just something I tinkered with when I had nothing better to do, and it tastes pretty good, so I'd like to invite the lovely Shuxue to try it. Please grant my request."

Shuxue blushed again upon hearing this.

"Miss, I've brought everything."

Grape put everything on the Eight Immortals Table

Li Shuchen said

"Come, Miss Shuxue, let's sit down and eat together."

Shuxue, her face flushed pink, responded softly.

"it is good"

The two sat at the Eight Immortals table

"Please enjoy, Miss Shuxue."

"Miss Li, please enjoy."

Seeing that Xue was a little reserved, Li Shuchen directly used serving chopsticks to pick up a chicken wing for her.

"Try it quickly, this dish won't taste good when it gets cold."

Thank you, Miss Li.

Shuxue picked up the chicken wing in front of her, slowly put it in her mouth, chewed it lightly, and her eyes instantly lit up.

"The outer skin is crispy and fragrant, while the meat inside is tender and juicy—truly amazing!"

Li Shuchen smiled upon hearing this.

"Eat more if you like it. I don't have much else, just these dishes. If you'd like, I can pack some for you."

Upon hearing this, Shuxue hurriedly waved her hand, accidentally choking herself in the process.

"Ahem, that's enough, that's enough. Miss Li has already treated me to this, how could I possibly take any more home?"

Li Shuchen quickly patted Shuxue's back.

"Alright, alright, look how scared you were, let's eat first."

"it is good"

After the meal

Shuxue glanced at Li Shuchen several times, then lowered her head again, unable to utter a word.

Li Shuchen had already noticed, but she didn't ask Miss Shuxue because she was afraid that Miss Shuxue's question was too difficult to answer, and if Miss Shuxue didn't want to talk about it, she wouldn't press her.

Shuxue glanced at Li Shuchen several times, and seeing that he hadn't noticed her, she mustered all her strength and courage to speak.

"Miss Li, I am naturally shy and afraid of meeting people. I would like to change this. I wonder if you could give me some guidance?"

Li Shuchen was taken aback. This wasn't even a difficult question to ask, yet Miss Shuxue had hesitated for so long. Wasn't she just too shy?

The moment I saw her, I knew she was introverted and easily blushed, but I never expected it to be this serious.

She wasn't this shy when she spoke to me at the banquet. Could it be that her father forced her to be shy back then?

Li Shuchen didn't answer her, but instead asked a question.

Did your father force you to socialize with others?

Shuxue shook her head

"No, my father treats me very well and has never forced me. I learned from him that Miss Li is very capable, so I came to ask you for guidance. I won't let Miss Li teach me for nothing; I've brought tuition."

Shuxue took the purse from her waist and handed it to Li Shuchen with both hands.

Li Shuchen took it and immediately felt its weight; it was a heavy purse, probably containing a hundred taels of silver.

He then pretended to weigh it in his hand, saying casually...

"Miss Shuxue, this fee isn't enough."

Shuxue was stunned upon hearing this.

"Oh, then I'll go home and get some more."

After Shuxue finished speaking, she turned to leave.

Li Shuchen quickly called out to stop.

"I was just kidding you. You actually believed me? I don't want this tuition fee. Miss Shuxue, have you ever heard of 'one who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black'? You'll probably be fine after spending some time with an extrovert like me. There's no need for me to pay you a tuition fee."

"This won't do."

Li Shuchen returned the purse to Shuxue

"If I say it's okay, then it's okay."

Grape: "Miss, someone is looking for you outside. They say they are a relative of yours."

Relatives? Interesting. This is the first time any so-called relative has visited her after she's been sick for so long; it's definitely not a good thing.

She wanted to go and meet her; it would be a good opportunity for Miss Shuxue to see just how outgoing she was.

Li Shuchen stood up and said

"Miss Shuxue, you stay inside and watch me work. I'm going out to meet some relatives."

Shuxue obediently agreed.

"it is good"

Li Shuchen first removed the hairpins and ornaments from her hair, tied her hair with an orange ribbon, and then applied a thick layer of powder to her face, making her face frighteningly white—any whiter and it would be hard to miss.

She changed back into the same coarse cloth pudding dress she had worn at the beginning.

Then I looked at myself in the glasses, and I looked exactly like someone who was about to die.

Li Shuchen nodded in satisfaction.

This kind of image is best used when dealing with relatives whose motives are unclear.

He then quickly went downstairs and saw the doorway.

An elderly man dressed in coarse cloth looked intently inside, while a young man, also dressed in coarse cloth, stood beside him.

Li Shuchen couldn't recall anyone by that name, so he stepped outside and tentatively asked...
