C7 I give you sugar to eat
"Thank you, Aunt!"
Liu Zhengjun had changed into a small cotton-padded jacket. Although the fabric was not as it used to be, it had a very beautiful style. The clothes worn by Liu Zhengjun were just right. She was like a porcelain doll, adorable and petite without a single piece missing.
This set of clothes, the work of Liu Yan, was just right for use at this moment.
Liu Zhengjun changed out of his clothes. "I lost it," he said. The pearl buttons and gold and silver accessories on it were all worth quite a bit of money. The Lee family that was left behind could be considered as paying for the clothes in disguise. He didn't want to take advantage of a small family, so he wanted to keep his noble demeanor.
Liu Zhengjun and Li Ke didn't think too much about it. They played with Little Leopard by the side.
Li Bai came back with Li Chen and Liu Yan. They were very polite to Jun Pingping. Even the Li Family, which had flourished at its peak, was just a punk in front of the Huainan Liu Family. In front of Jun Pingping, the Li Family could not even stand up to him. Moreover, the Li Family was an outsider, and they did not have anyone to rely on in Huai Nan, so they could not offend Huai Nan's first family.
The adults on both sides did not say anything as they only heard the two little fellows chatting.
"I'll give you some candy." Liu Zhengjun saw that Little Leopard's eyes were shining, but he still did not give up, so he tried the same trick again.
"No!"
Li Ke continued to refuse the attack.
Liu Zhengjun wanted to pick up the leopard, but the leopard was told not to bite, so he didn't mind showing his claws. Liu Zhengjun was afraid that his new jacket would be torn apart again, which would make him too ashamed to go home. He pointed at the leopard and shouted, "Little scoundrel!"
Li Ke said, "He's very obedient. You're too distant from him."
"Could it be that I'm really not familiar with him?"
"Difficult!" At this moment, Li Ke was like a small old man.
Liu Zhengjun stayed behind to eat lunch. The dishes on the table were quite sumptuous. She felt a bit embarrassed as she looked at the dishes. She had just walked around for a bit, yet she had asked someone to bring out the New Year's gift for her. However, this made her feel good, and she talked more at the table.
When he left, Jun Pingping left a reward for the Lee family and promised to arrange a good job for Li Bai.
After sending off the nobles of Huai Nan, the Li family finally let out a sigh of relief.
After asking Liu Yan to bring Li Ke out, Li Bai said to Li Chen, "Father, are we in another place with the Liu family? It's very easy to attract attention." Huai Nan is still a bit closer to Mao Wuzhang. If the Puyang clan comes with people to investigate, they might be able to track us down. "
Li Chen shook his head and said, "We can't go any further. We're far enough away from Puyang. If we want revenge, how long do we have to wait?"
Li Bai lowered his head and did not say anything. He was born too late. Although he knew that the clan had been annihilated, he had been instilled with the concept of revenge. But after reading the book and seeing a lot of the market, Li Bai didn't understand revenge very well. He didn't really wish for Li Ke to follow his father's path. His heart and body were locked in hatred.
Li Chen saw what Li Bai was thinking and didn't scold his son. Instead, he walked to the courtyard and stared blankly in the direction of Pu Yang.
Li Ke looked at his grandfather who was standing in the yard. He felt extremely upset. He could tell that Li Chen was very sad. That feeling couldn't be expressed with words. It was like something was stuck in his heart.
The next day, Li Bai was promoted to the position of one of the second stewards of the river mouth grain store. He managed a large granary, and in the eyes of ordinary people, he had already risen to prominence.
Li Bai had been promoted, and more people were looking for him.
It was as if he was an expert in everything he did as a family member of the Shangguan family, even Li Chen was rumored to be a godly doctor.
After the 15th, Li Ke returned to his normal life. Every day, he would study at the academy and practice martial arts at home.
Every two or three days, Liu Zhengjun would come to the Liu family to play with Little Leopard. Every time, he would bring some delicious food and try his best to get familiar with Little Leopard, so he could stay home later.
Unfortunately, Little Leopard did not give him face. He would definitely eat good food. It was okay to let Liu Zhengjun hug him occasionally, but he would not let Liu Zhengjun get his way every time.
It was just like when a girl was in love. In her heart, she would always be thinking of a man who would not pay attention to them.
After several setbacks, Liu did not lose interest in the leopard, instead, he became even more fond of the leopard.
When Liu Zhengjun came to the Li family to play and saw Li Ke practicing in the courtyard, he asked Li Ke, "Every time I come, you practice these three moves. Could it be that you're afraid I'll steal your family's secret techniques?"
Li Ke stopped, scratched his head and said, "I only know these three moves."
"I don't believe it."
Liu Zhengjun pursed his lips, wanting to capture Li Ke and make him tell the truth.
Li Ke said, "I really only know these three moves. It's called the Three Styles. If you want to learn it, I'll teach it to you."
Liu Zhengjun rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not learning? "My Martial Pavilion has a lot of secret manuals. When I give you a few books later on, watching you train here, I feel embarrassed."
Li Ke hurriedly said, "Don't do that. I don't want to be killed for no reason."
The secret manuals of the Feudal Lords families were all extremely well hidden, and could not be leaked out easily. For an outsider like the Li Family, even if they did some work for the Liu Family, they would only be able to obtain ordinary secret manuals that were common on the streets. High-grade secret scriptures were something that couldn't be leaked out easily. Only after working for several generations for their family could they gain trust and be granted some high-grade secret manuals.
If the Lee family got the secret scripture from Liu Zhengjun, they would be annihilated by nightfall.
"You're so timid."
With that, Liu Zhengjun ran off to play with Little Leopard.
Looking at Liu Zhengjun playing, Li Ke was also conflicted. Li Ke had thought about asking Liu Zhengjun for some secret manuals. Only after discussing them with his grandfather did he finally understand the taboo.
If he hadn't asked in advance, he would have been in deep trouble.
Li Ke focused on his punching routine. Every movement of his was as perfect as possible, and within his mind, the Hidden Tiger Painting appeared every now and then.
Although the weather was cold and covered in sweat, it felt very comfortable.
Liu Zhengjun was squatting by the door with an unhappy look on his face. It seemed that he had been rejected by Little Leopard. It was unknown when it had begun, but as he stared at Li Ke's boxing routine, his eyes were filled with surprise.
"What's wrong?"
Li Ke lowered his head to take a look, but he didn't find anything strange on his body.
Liu Zhengjun didn't catch Little Leopard. He squatted at the door and watched Li Ke fight. It was just three moves over and over again. Normally, he would feel bored after watching it for a while, but today, for some reason, he felt like he saw something different. This was especially true of Li Ke's final punch. It seemed to vaguely possess a grand and imposing aura.
"I suddenly feel like I've underestimated you," Liu Zhengjun replied.
Li Ke retorted, "Have you looked down on me before?"
"Not before." Liu Zhengjun was still a bit young, so he spoke very straightforwardly. He was only a young girl who was not even seven years old yet, so he didn't have a lot of heart.
Liu Zhengjun said mysteriously, "In the future, I might look up to you." As he said that, he suddenly threw a kick.
Li Ke was mature and calm, but he did not expect Liu Zhengjun to suddenly attack. He quietly took a step back and was not slower than Liu Zhengjun. Liu Zhengjun had launched three consecutive attacks, but Li Ke had managed to dodge all of them. At this moment, Li Ke's expression changed greatly. If he wanted to deliberately take a beating, it was already too late to feign ignorance.
"You …" Liu Zhengjun had held back the first time. He had only wanted to test Li Ke, but he did not expect to be easily evaded.
Liu Zhengjun had used all of his strength in the last two moves, but Li Ke had actually managed to dodge them. Liu Zhengjun shouted in disbelief, "You are also a fifth …" While shouting, Li Ke covered his mouth and even hugged his body.
Li Ke also became anxious as he whispered, "Don't shout, you'll be heard."
Liu Zhengjun was secretly surprised. When Li Ke made his move, she did not react in time. It was clear that Li Ke's power was about to reach the sixth level, and his technique was also very exquisite. At the same time, Liu Zhengjun also felt happy. He finally had something to threaten Li Ke with.
"Let go of my hand, don't scream. We can discuss things properly."
Li Ke felt a headache coming on. Although Liu Zhengjun had found out about the secret, he couldn't just kill him and keep it a secret. The only thing he could do was to negotiate with him.
Liu Zhengjun nodded in agreement. After Li Ke let go, he smiled and asked, "Do you want some candy?"
"Eat!"
For the first time, Li Ke didn't say no.
Liu Zhengjun was giggling with joy, cheering for the subjugation of Li Ke's will. The reason why he gave Li Ke sugar was because he wanted the little leopard, but Li Ke refused all the time. Later on, the matter of Li Ke not eating candies gradually became more important than that of Little Leopard's belonging. Li Ke was also stubborn, but he refused to eat the candies brought by Liu Zhengjun.
The two children had confronted each other many times over the matter.
However, children did not hold a grudge when they fought. The first one was extremely noisy, but after a few days, they were able to resolve the matter once again.
Seeing that it was almost the end of the year, Liu Zhengjun finally had the chance to catch Li Ke's weakness. Li Ke also obediently bowed his head in submission.
The candy was still very tasty, but Li Ke felt that it was too sweet. He preferred the sweet on the street, which was very light. The candy that Liu Zhengjun brought was all high grade, a packet of candy cost nearly a hundred yuan.
"Is it delicious?"
Seeing Li Ke eat the candy, Liu Zhengjun revealed a triumphant smile, but was immediately angered to the point of pouting. Li Ke replied in a very disrespectful manner. Her voice was muffled as she replied, "It's too sweet."
Liu Zhengjun snorted in dissatisfaction as he stuffed the entire bag of candies into Li Ke's hands and said, "You're still being picky. If you don't eat all of the candies, I'll tell everyone about your situation."
Li Ke frowned as he looked at the candy in his hand. He was in a difficult position. Eating such a sweet thing, it would be easy for them to not kill him. Could it be that they had silenced Liu Zhengjun, allowing Grandfather to bring them to move to another house? However, looking at Liu Zhengjun's proud and cold face, Li Ke's desire to silence him was immediately extinguished.
Although Liu Zhengjun was a bit naughty, he was also a good playmate.
Only after seeing Li Ke finish his bag of sugar did Liu Zhengjun leave happily. He also promised that he wouldn't tell anyone about Li Ke. In order to keep Li Ke in the dark, Liu Zhengjun decided to keep this a secret.
Li Ke ate a pack of candies, but he didn't manage to eat his dinner. Before nightfall, he once again typed in thirty-six sets of the Three Styles, and only then did he feel that he had digested the excess sugar.
Even when he was sleeping, he felt his entire body burning hot. He was abnormally clear-headed in his sleep, yet his body could not move. The Tiger Subduing Diagram hung above his head for a long time.
After waking up from his sleep, Li Ke instead felt even more tired, with a slight fever.
After a few months in Huainan, Li Ke took sick leave for the first time and went to bed to recuperate.
Li Chen checked Li Ke's pulse. He only felt that Li Ke's bloodline was too powerful, and that the virtual fire was too powerful. Since he didn't have a suitable prescription, he got Liu Yan to take some snow and wipe Li Ke's body with ice water.
Li Ke's fever subsided a bit.
It was probably because he discovered Li Ke's little secret yesterday that Liu Zhengjun came to the Li family to play at noon. Only then did he find out that Li Ke was sick and he was extremely worried.
"Take good care of yourself, I'll give you candy."
Liu Zhengjun took out another packet of candy. Seeing the amount of candy she had prepared, it was definitely to let Li Ke eat a mouthful of rotten teeth. Only then would he be willing to let the matter go.
Li Ke was willing to eat. He said, "I'm not eating. I've always been fine. It was yesterday that I ate your candy and got a fever today."
"Impossible, how could he have gotten sick from eating sugar?"
Liu Zhengjun could not do it. Li Ke said, "Why not, sugar will give you insect teeth when you eat too much. If you can't, go look at San Gouzi next door. His mouth is full of holes.
"No way!" Liu Zhengjun shouted and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
