Capítulo 40: Her Senior in High School
He has that smile on his face as he stared at her.
"It's good to see you again, Jia Li." The young man said with a smile.
"Brother Li Huan?." Jia Li said as she stared at the familiar face in surprise.
"Are you surprised to see me?." Li Huang asked with a smile as he gazed at her.
"Yeah." Jia Li answered a little absent-mindedly. Glancing at his hands, she regained her manners.
"Brother Li Huan, please don't mind me, come in." She said to him as she opened the door wide enough for him to pass through with the kinds of stuff in his hands.
While tailing after Li Huan, Jia Li's heart was beating a few paces faster than normal. She would be lying if she denied the fact that she was affected by seeing Li Huan at her doorstep today.
"Jia Li who Is there?." Mrs. Qin asked from the living room. But when she turned her head, she saw a familiar figure walking towards them with some bags in his hands.
"Li Huang?." Mrs. Qin asked, standing to her feet in surprise. Mr. Qin also turned to glance over and saw the handsome familiar face.
"Is that Li Huang I'm seeing?." Mr. Qin asked with a welcoming smile.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Qin, Good afternoon, Mrs. Qin." Lin Huan greeted with a smile as he walked towards them with the bags in his hand.
Getting close to them, he kept the bags aside and shook hands with Mr. Qin.
"Li Huang, when did you come back?." Mrs. Qin asked as she gestured to him to take a seat.
Sitting down comfortably, Li Huan smiled as he replied. "I came back this morning."
"That's good. Your mother must have been happy to see you." Mrs. Qin said with a smile.
Jia Li who has been standing walked over and took a seat beside her mother.
"Yes, she was very happy to see me." Li Huan replied with a smile.
"Good... Good." Mr. Qin said while nodding in approval.
"Mrs. Qin this..." Li Huan started saying but got cut off by Mrs. Qin.
"Why the stress, Just call us, Aunty and Uncle."
Li Huan took the correction and addressed them as she told him.
"Aunty, Uncle, this is the little gift I bought from the city." Li Huan said while pointing at the backs he left at the side.
"All these for us?." Mrs. Qin asked.
"You shouldn't have bothered, you are a young man who just started working." Mr. Qin said to him.
"There is no trouble at all. I can't come to greet Uncle and Aunty empty-handed after some years now." Liu Huan explained.
"You did well." Mrs. Qin commended him.
Then turning to Jia Li who has been quiet, she said to her, "Jia Li, have you greeted Li Huang?."
Looking up slowly while trying to hide her embarrassment, she replied, "Yes, I greeted him at the door."
What she did at the door was not a greeting, but how would her mother know about it? And definitely, Li Huan wouldn't mention it.
Li Huan and Jia Li have known each other for some years now. Li Huan was Jia Li's senior in high school, but back then, they didn't know each other very well, and they only became close when they both found out they lived in the same neighborhood.
Jia Li's parents have always known Li Huan to be Jia Li's senior in school because he used to walk her home most times from school before he graduated from high school and went to another city to enroll in college, so they became acquainted.
Mrs. Qin and Mr. Qin were happy to see Li Huan once again. They chatted with him and ask him about his life and job, and it turned out that Li Huan was doing very well and also walking in a big tech company.
"Jia Li, go and cut some fruits for Li Huan." Mrs. Qin said to Jia Li with a smile.
Jia Li excused herself and went into the kitchen. She was blushing when she came into the kitchen.
While in the living room, she felt Li Huan's gaze on her at every moment, and so she has been looking for a moment to escape so she could fan her hot cheeks and breathe properly.
Fanning her face, she asked herself, "Jia Li, what is wrong with you?."
Feeling that the hotness on her cheeks and neck had reduced she sighed in relief and picked up some fruits to wash.
In the living room, Mrs. Qin turned to glance in the direction of the kitchen while saying, "Why is Jia Li taking so much time to cut some fruits?."
"Relax, it hasn't been up to two minutes since she left." Mr. Qin said to her.
"We have a visitor. I will go find her and help her out." Mrs. Qin said before disappearing into the kitchen.
Mrs. Qin was not really bothered, she only made this excuse to go and check on Jia Li, because she noticed something.
Hearing the footsteps behind her, Jia Li turned to see who it was.
"Mum? Why did you come in, you should have waited for me?" Jia Li said to her before going back to cut the Apple with the knife in her hand.
"Are you disappointed?." Mrs. Qin asked as she walked to her side with a smile.
"Disappointed with what?." Jia Li asked inc confusion.
"Are you disappointed that it's not Li Huan that came to look for you?." Mrs. Qin teased with her gaze on Jia Li while waiting for a response.
"Mum?!." Jia Li said in shock as she looked behind her to make sure no other person had her.
"What? Am I wrong?." Mrs. Qin asked as she took a piece of the fruit and out into her mouth, her gaze never leaving Jia Li as she chewed on the Apple 🍎.
"Mum, who gave you that impression?." Jia Li asked with a frown as she tried to stop her racing heart from beating faster.

Capítulo 41: Her Secret Crush
"What? Am I wrong?." Mrs. Qin asked as she took a piece of the fruit and out into her mouth, her gaze never leaving Jia Li as she chewed on the Apple 🍎.
"Mum, who gave you that impression?." Jia Li asked with a frown as she tried to stop her racing heart from beating faster.
"You gave me that impression." Mrs. Qin replied with a smile and seeing that Jia Li still had something to say, she stopped her.
"We will talk about this later. Cut the fruits quickly and bring it over, I will serve the water." Mrs. Qin said as she opened the refrigerator and brought out dour bottles of water.
She placed them on the tray and left for the living room. She returned to the kitchen to get the glass cups, and after smiling at Jia Li, she left again.
Jia Li heaved a sigh as she patted her hot cheeks. She really wanted to see her face and check out if her feelings were truly portrayed on her face. But too bad she couldn't see her face.
After cutting the apple, she washed some grapes and added them to the plate of fruits before carrying it out, while trying hard to manage her facial expressions.
It was a hidden secrete that she had feelings for Li Huan, she had always had a crush on her tall, smart and handsome Hugh school senior, but she kept her feelings hidden.
She didn't know if it was love since she didn't know what that means, but she knew she liked being around him.
Serving the fruits, Mr. Qin gestured to Li Huan to eat.
"Thank you!." Li Huan said as he picked up a piece of Apple to eat.
As they enjoyed the fruits, they talked about some things and a little memory from the past. But all in all, they had a hearty discussion.
"Aunty, Uncle, I will be leaving now." Li Huan says to them while checking his wristwatch.
"You are leaving already?." Mrs. Qin asked.
"Yes. I will come to visit again before I travel back." Li Huan said with a polite smile.
"You are free to come and visit anytime you want. You were Jia Li's senior in high school, and you always had her back, you can come and visit any time you want." Mr. Qin said to him.
"Then I would have to trouble Aunty and Uncle to take me in." Li Huan joked.
"It's not troublesome at all. We will be happy if you visit often." Mrs. Qin said as she patted his shoulder.
Mrs. Qin then turned to Jia Li and asked her to walk Li Huan out.
Jia Li smiled in agreement and followed Li Huan outside the house. Outside the door, Li Huan stopped in his steps and turned to glance at Jia Li, while Jia Li glanced at him in confusion.
Li Huan patted her hair twice before saying to her with a harmless smile, "On my way back, I was imagining what you would look like now, since I haven't seen you in three years, and it turned out that I wasn't disappointed. You have really grown into a beautiful young woman."
Jia Li blushed at his comment, but she mouthed a word of thanks.
With him still staring at her with a smile, Jia Li felt the situation was awkward, so she cleared her throat.
"Brother Li Huan, when are you going to the City?." She asked as she gazed at his face.
"I took a week off from work, so I will be around for a week." Li Huan replied as he turned around and started walking away in slow steps, and instinctively, Jia Li followed him.
"That's good." Jia Li said as she tried to hide the excitement in her tone, but it didn't go unnoticed by Li Huan, who smiled to himself.
"You look happy to see me, did you miss me?." Li Huan asked in a gentle tone while patiently waiting for Jia Li's reply.
Jia Li was taken aback by his question, and when she was trying to reply, she started to stammer. Li Huan smiled and touched her hair again saying,
"Don't mind me, I was joking. How is college?." He asked, changing the topic.
"College? college is fine." Jia Li replied with her face down. She was still embarrassed by his previous question.
"Alright, you can go back now, I will see you too." Li Huan said as he stopped in his steps.
"Tomorrow?." Jia Li asked with a slight frown.
"Why? you don't want to see me?." Li Huan asked with a smile, and Jia Li quickly refuted his words.
"No it's not that, I'm going to school tomorrow."
"Okay, we will see when you come back. Go back." Li Huan said as he gave her a little push.
Jia Li waved at him before walking back into her house. Li Huan resumed walking after he saw her winter her house. He had a smile on his face as he walked back to his house.
"Has he gone?." Mrs. Qin asked immediately Jia Li walked back into the living room.
"Yes." Jia Li replied and attempted to walk past her parents, but Mrs. Qin asked, "What did you two talk about?."
"You..." Mr. Qin said with an unbelievable look on his face.
Jia Li looked surface at the question as she called out, "Mum!."
"Alright, go to your room." Mrs. Qin said as she shooed her away with a smile.
Jia Li looked wronged as she walked back to her room.
"Why did you do that?." Mr. Qin asked with a frown.
"It's so fun teasing her. I don't know why she is so shy. I'm worried that she can be easily tricked since she doesn't have thick skin." Mrs. Qin said.
"Do you think by doing things this way it would work?." Mr. Qin asked with his gaze on her.
"It will work, at least she will get used to hearing me say things like that." Mrs. Qin replied as she picked up the remote and turned on the Tv.
"No, if you continue teasing her, she may end up not talking to you again. You know how shy our daughter is, she will not be able to handle your teasing words." Mr. Qin reminded her.
"Okay, I have heard you, let's continue with the drama." Mrs. Qin said as she gestured to the Tv.
