Li Qingling glanced at Liu Zhimo, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he stated what Tong Wangrong had told him in a cold tone, "Tong Guniang said that this village nun, not only is I not of any help to your career, I will also drag you down. For your own good, make me leave you automatically." It was as if she didn't see the unsightly expression on Liu Zhimo's face as she continued, "Tell me, do you want me to listen to her?"

"You dare?" Liu Zhimo shouted with a darkened face. He reached out and pulled her into his embrace, hugging her tightly: "Li Qingling, if you dare to even think of leaving me, be careful of your butt."

As he spoke, he smacked her hard on the butt.

"... Liu Zhimo! " Li Qingling said his name in embarrassment. She had never been hit on the butt by someone before, and after being hit by him, his face was completely flushed red. It was unknown whether he was angry or embarrassed.

She hadn't even gotten even with him yet, and he still dared to spank her. Seriously … Seriously …

Li Qingling was so angry that his mind went blank …

"Then, do you dare to say those words of leaving me? "Hmm?" As long as he thought of her leaving him, his heart would feel as if it had been cut by a knife, and he would be unable to breathe from the pain. "Don't even think about leaving me for the rest of your life, do you hear me?"

He would not let her go.

Listening to his overbearing words, the corner of Li Qingling's mouth raised a little, but his mouth sloppily said, if she doesn't love him, will he still keep her by his side?

Hearing her words, Liu Zhimo became silent. He had never thought of this question before, did she not love him?

When he thought of this, he held her hand and involuntarily exerted a little more force.

He had a feeling that he would really lose her.

"Pain …" Li Qingling inhaled a breath of cold air, and cried out in pain, was this little man trying to break her waist?

He had not heard her, and was still lost in the world he was to be abandoned.

"Ink, let go." Li Qingling reached out and patted Liu Zhimo's arm, telling him to lighten it and not hold her so tightly.

He returned to his senses, and after hearing these words, he shook his head and said no. He held her hand and exerted even more force.

No?

She was so angry that she almost laughed, and then she patted his hand and said loudly, "You want to strangle me to death so that you can marry that Tong Guniang right? "Hmm?"

If he still didn't let go, then he wouldn't be polite.

Hearing this, he finally reacted. He hugged her too tightly, it hurt.

He relaxed a bit, but he still kept his hands on her waist, refusing to let go.

He took a deep breath, swallowed, and lowered his head. He lifted her chin with one hand and they looked at each other.

Li Qingling thought that he wanted to tell her something, so he kept quiet and waited for her to speak.

However, after waiting for a moment, he still did not speak. He just stared at her in silence.

She felt that her eyes were about to turn cross-eyed as she helplessly said, "What do you want to say to me?"

If you have something to say, just say it. Why do you have to keep it in your heart?

Liu Zhimo pursed his lips, clearing his throat, "Ling'er, you …. Do you love me? "

After he asked, he couldn't help but hold his breath as he looked at her with a bit of nervousness on his face.

He was afraid that he would hear the answer he did not like from her.

If she really didn't love him, would he let her go?

With regards to this question, his heart was filled with contradictions.

He didn't want to let her go, but he was afraid that if he forced her to stay by his side, it would make her unhappy.

She was a person who loved to laugh. He really didn't want to lose her smile one day.

Li Qingling stopped smiling, and looked at Liu Zhimo for a while. Seeing the nervousness in his eyes, she slowly opened his mouth, "What about you? Love me? I want to hear the truth. "

After saying that, he couldn't help but cough lightly, his ears turning red.

As someone born and raised in ancient times, he was truly somewhat embarrassed to be able to say out loud that he loved her.

Liu Zhimo even wanted to reach out to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead.

"Whether I love you or not, is there a need to think about such a simple question for so long? "Huh?"

Regarding his words, Li Qingling really wanted to shake him with her hand and ask him a question.

"Hmm …"

Afraid that she would misunderstand him, Liu Zhimo answered with a mosquito-like voice under her interrogation.

When he finished his sentence, he was too embarrassed to look her in the eye. He slightly shifted his eyes and looked at the cabinet at the side.

This little man is so shy...

But she liked.

Li Qingling reached out and cupped his face, forcing him to look straight at her, and said seriously, "Me too." She loved him too. If she didn't love him, how could she agree to marry him?

She really couldn't do it.

Her sudden confession caused Liu Zhimo to be stunned for a moment. Then, he reacted and revealed a ecstatic smile.

"You … "You …" After a few rounds, he was still unable to say what he wanted to say next.

He was really too happy, too happy!

Although he knew that she would marry him, he would still worry about his personal gains and losses.

Now that he heard his words, his heart felt as if it had swallowed a pill of reassurance. He felt completely at ease.

"Has he gone mad?"

Seeing him so happy, the corner of Li Qingling's mouth rose as well.

She put the tip of her foot up and kissed him on the lips. "Well, don't be silly, let's eat!"

Liu Zhimo caressed his lips, and hugged her once more before saying, "Ling'er, I don't have any relationship with Tong Guniang, don't take the words of discord to heart." His eyes darkened for a moment before he continued, "I will take care of this matter. You can rest assured!"

He didn't have any interactions with Mr. Tong's daughter, but she came over to say those words to Ling'er. This made him really angry.

It was time for him to let her know what it meant to be fair and honest.

Li Qingling patted Liu Zhimo's back and laughed, "It's not my first time knowing you, so how could I believe her words?" If those unmarried couples, who didn't know each other very well, heard Tong Wangrong's words, they would probably feel nervous. It was completely impossible for his to be like them, "After all, she is the daughter of the Mr. Tong. When you handle this matter, don't go too far, or else the Mr. Tong will have some objections towards you."

Liu Zhimo still needed to be taught by the Mr. Tong, so he couldn't fall out with them.

"I know what I'm doing, don't worry."

Li Qingling made a sound of acknowledgement, and gave a few more orders before he carried the dishes back to the hall to eat.

… ….

On the next day, after Liu Zhimo finished instructing him at Mr. Tong, he smiled and said: "Sir, yesterday, Tong Guniang went to the village to look for my fiancee, but my fiancee did not know her, and told her a few things that she did not like to hear. Here, a student will apologize for his fiancee to Tong Guniang.

Hearing that, Mr. Tong was startled for a moment, then smiled and said. He would go back and ask what happened?

When he looked at Liu Zhimo, he felt a little awkward. After telling Liu Zhimo about some stuff related to classes, he sent him away.

He stood up, walked home with a dark face.

Once he got home, he went straight to Tong Wangrong's yard.

When Dong Mei saw him, she hurriedly went forward and greeted him.

In his heart, however, he was wondering, was the old master teaching at the academy? How did he find the time to come back?

"Where's Miss?"

"Miss is resting. Master, please wait for a moment, I will go tell Miss."

After Dong Mei finished interviewing the Mr. Tong, he turned and walked in.

She quickly walked to the bedside and reached out her hand to gently push Tong Wangrong away as she called out in a low voice, "Miss, the old master is here."

Tong Wangrong did not sleep very deeply, but when Dong Mei called out to her, she opened her eyes.

"Daddy? Didn't she have to go to class? Why are you here at this time? " She asked puzzledly as she crawled up from the bed and got Dong Mei to help her get dressed.

Why did father come to find her at this time?

Dong Mei had just finished swimming and put on her clothes. She said this in a low voice, the old master's face did not look good.

When Tong Wangrong heard this, her heart skipped a beat as she had a bad premonition.

Did father know what she had done?

She pinched her fingers, forcing herself to calm down, and waited for Dong Mei to comb her hair again before she walked out of the room.

She smiled as she looked at Mr. Tong, "Father, why have you come?" She held Mr. Tong's hand and walked into the room, turning her head to let Dong Mei go get some tea.

While Mr. Tong was waiting outside, he had already suppressed the anger in his heart. He looked at Tong Wangrong with a complicated expression.

He always thought that his daughter was quite intelligent, but he never thought that she would do such a foolish thing.

If others were to know about this, would they still want her reputation?

When Tong Wangrong was looked at by Mr. Tong, her heart skipped a beat. She smiled unnaturally, "Daddy, is there something you need me for?"

"Where did you go yesterday?"

Tong Wangrong's heart skipped a beat again. She looked at Mr. Tong, but didn't see anything from his face.

She didn't know if he knew what happened yesterday, so she asked, or if he was just trying to trick her.

She held onto the kerchief with both of her hands and took a deep breath, pretending to be calm and collected as she said, "I went shopping, what's wrong?"

This time, Mr. Tong looked at Tong Wangrong with disappointment in his eyes. His daughter had grown up, and even he dared to deceive her.

"Is that so? "Are you sure?" His face darkened as he stared at her with shining eyes, "I'll give you one more chance. Did you really go shopping? "Hmm?"

Don't panic, don't panic, Daddy might not know about this. Tong Wangrong hinted to herself a few times in her heart before reluctantly nodding her head and saying yes.

This time, Mr. Tong did not want to beat around the bush. He smacked the table angrily, "You still dare to lie to me? Ah? Where is your ring, your four books and five scriptures? " He was really disappointed with his daughter, "You … Are you trying to piss me off? "
