Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain

Another picture was displayed on her cellphone.

The main character in the picture was still Zhong Yuhuan.

Standing in a circle, all the boys and girls had reached out and tossed Zhong Yuhuan high up in the air. Her hands were grabbed onto the hemline of her dress. The wide brimmed hat flew up in the air along with the hemline of the dress. Zhong Yuhuan had a bright smile on her face.

Accompanied by all her subjects, Zhong Yuhuan, indeed, looked like a 18th century princess.

Zhong Yuhuan pointed at the picture and said, Theres a mattress underneath here. It was pretty safe.

Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan were both quiet.

They regretted a little.

They have missed so much since they have separated. They didnt get to see her play, nor did they get to see her in the princess costume.

Li Jinyuan suddenly said, Ive heard many girls in Europe like other girls.

Zhong Yuhuan paused for a second and said, No. Thats not possible.

Li Jinyuan pursed his lips, put that card side, pulled out another, and read it out loud, Dear Heloise, Merry Christmas! I am so sad to have to part with you. You are so pretty. You are by far the prettiest Chinese I have ever laid eyes on. Your eyes look like a starry night and your hair is like the best silk from China. Your lips are like petals. May I have the honor to invite you to come to my beautillion ball during the holidays? Your Joseph.

Huo Chengmings lips twitched and he looked stiff, . Do all Europeans talk like that?

Its not a bad thing to praise a girl! said Zhong Yuhuan. Then, she turned to the two young men and asked, Dont you praise anyone else?

No.

Well, thats not going to work. How are you going to get girlfriends like that? rebutted Zhong Yuhuan immediately. At least be a gentleman and give a lady just the right amount of praises. That would go very far with girls in the future.

Is this Joseph a gentleman? asked Huo Chengming.

Hmm. Yeah. I feel very comfortable talking with him every time. For example, if you wear a skirt in the winter time, the first thing hed say is how pretty the skirt is, instead of asking if you will be cold.

Huo Chengmings face darkened, You want to go out in a skirt in the wintertime?

Zhong Yuhuan blinked and said, Its just an example.

Not even as an example. Its wrong to wear skirts in the winter time, said Huo Chengming.

Li Jinyuan thought about it for a bit and also said, It will be cold. Too cold. You shouldnt do that in the future Huanhuan.

Zhong Yuhuan face palmed helplessly.

What was she to do with the two of them?

Okay, I will give a different example then. Forget about the skirt in the wintertime. Hmm, I went back to school during Thanksgiving break and he gave me a gift. He said it was for returning to school. And during Halloween, he gave me flowers

Wait, what Huo Chengming interrupted her again, Thats not him being gentlemanly.

Eh?

Hes courting you, said Li Jinyuan as he chucked the Christmas card to one side.

Zhong Yuhuan said helplessly, Alright. If thats the case, hes not a bad guy

Huanhuan, you cant look at it that way. If he always make you feel comfortable around him, is he like that to everyone? said Li Jinyuan.

Huo Chengming was even more unhappy, Like a central A/C.

When did the teacher become the student? When did the table turn and now they were teaching her not to trust others easily?

Zhong Yuhuan wasnt sure what to make of that, but she listened to them attentively anyway.

They were all grown up. They seemed to have learned more and more.

Li Jinyuan said in a low voice, Study hard. No dating so young.
