Chương 239: Li Junjie's Promise (1)

Li Caiyi fell into silence as she listened to Li Junjie's words. She had never expected herself to have this deep conversation with Li Junjie, out of all people. All this time, she thought that her brother was just too indifferent or slow to notice anything, but it turned out that her brother was actually keeping an eye on her actions.

"Brother Jie, if you notice everything, why didn't you say anything?"

"Sometimes it's easier if you pretend you don't know anything." 

"Is this related to the so-called promise? Brother Jie, can't you tell me about it?"

"...I can," Li Junjie answered after a moment of pause. "But not now, not in this place. Let's go somewhere else after school. Just you and me."

"What about Xiaohua?" 

'"She doesn't need to know about this. At least not yet." 

Li Caiyi felt more curious now that her brother clearly expressed his reluctance to bring Li Chunhua along.
