At The Beginning Of The Novel, The Heroine Begged The Retired Villain - Chapter 39
Chapter 39:
“Dad! …What are you talking about? It’s not Uncle Sun, it’s… It’s Uncle Ye who’s here!”
Li Yan’er’s face turned bright red.
Her hands kept rubbing the edges of her clothes, and her toes were constantly moving on the floor.
It was no exaggeration to say that this was definitely the most embarrassing moment in her life!
She didn’t know how to return because she had called him by the wrong name.
She couldn’t tell Ye Tian that she had a bet with her father that as long as he came, she would call him godfather.
If she said that, wouldn’t Ye Tian still take her as an idiot?
Thus, she didn’t wait to think about how to explain.
Her father came up with a perfect way to help her.
However, he told Ye Tian everything about what had happened!
“…Godfather is a bit old, it’s fine to call me uncle.” Ye Tian replied as he returned to his senses.
In fact, Li Yan’er’s title as one of the top most gorgeous ladies was really not deserved for nothing.
If Li Yan’er didn’t become the heroine with her figure and beauty, not to mention the readers, even the villain himself wouldn’t be able to accept it.
Of course, he was the villain now. Yet, he wanted Li Yan’er, the heroine, to be by his side.
As for what she had just called him, Ye Tian didn’t care.
Actually, Li Yan’er’s personality was warm-hearted in the novel.
She was a professor and an airhead at times.
Weird settings, right?
Also, she was sort of a tsundere!
“Uncle Ye… Uncle?”
Initially, Li Shan was a bit puzzled by his words.
There didn’t seem to be anyone surnamed Ye in his neighborhood, right?
Could it be that he was a newcomer?
But, when he heard Ye Tian’s voice, he realized who this “Uncle Ye” was.
And he immediately explained his daughter’s action.
Thankfully, from the tone of Ye Tian’s words and expression, he didn’t seem to be angry about the incident.
Anyhow, Lin Shan hoped that he would have a chance to make amends later.
“Brother Ye, come in, don’t misunderstand, I was just joking. Yan’er is just a child, don’t take what she says seriously!” Li Shan invited Ye Tian into the house.
Despite not saying a word out loud, Ye Tian could not help but mutter in his heart at his words.
What kind of joke is this?
Was Li Yan’er, the heroine, still a child?
Besides, if Li Yan’er were a child, Ye Tian was afraid there would be no more adults in this world!
Li Shan: “Brother Ye, this is Yan’er. You might have heard of her!”
Ye Tian: “Well, I heard about my niece at university. She’s a genius!”
Li Shan: “This is your sister-in-law Wang Li. She’s an excellent cook. She’ll make you happy today!”
Ye Tian: “Then thank you Brother Li and sister-in-law for your hospitality!”
“…”
A few minutes later, Li Yan’er was in the kitchen peeking into the living room.
Her father and Ye Tian were chatting feverishly.
This kind of scene… She wouldn’t dare dream even in her dreams!
“Mom, how did Dad get to know Ye… Uncle Ye knows each other?” Li Yan’er asked curiously.
At this moment, she had long forgotten about the bet and embarrassment from earlier.
All that was left in her mind was curiosity, but at the same time, there was some vague excitement!
She was different from Tang Ruoyu.
First of all, the Tang family was actually a wealthy family in Yun City, far beyond their family’s ability to compare.
Moreover, her father had just become a director not long ago.
If it was really a comparison, one word from the Tang family would have put Li Shan’s position as a director out of reach!
Plus, Li Yan’er had suffered repeated setbacks at the university in the past few years.
It was evident that she encountered many problems, whether it was selecting professors or other social matters. This was because her background was not as good as the others and she kept falling behind.
However, even if she claimed to have a strong background, she would find it impossible to compete with other families who had stronger backgrounds. She could not say her background was weak either.
So the situation at university was probably like this.
Those with stronger backgrounds look down on her, and those with weaker backgrounds think she’s a backdoor student.
No one ever thought that she had worked hard to get her PhD!
Under such circumstances, if she could be Ye Tian’s niece, it would be like turning her life around!
As for Ye Tian’s age being younger than herself?
So what?
Uncle and niece were just generations.
Who cares about age?
As for whether it would be embarrassing?
Sorry, she would rather call Uncle Ye Tian than let herself be mercilessly mocked!
So, Li Yan’er only has one thought in her mind right now.
That was after university started tomorrow, she would stop by and say hello to her uncle!
After all, she was such a well-behaved cousin, and her uncle was at the same university.
There was nothing wrong with taking the initiative to greet her uncle every day, right?
As they were at the same university, she was sure she could invite her uncle to dinner frequently.
