The Beloved and Pampered Girl

Chapter 763: Chapter 763: The Uncle’s Tenderness

After dinner, everyone went back to their dormitories to rest.

Thankfully, the door had been fixed; otherwise, I really wouldn’t have known what to do tonight.

As soon as I locked the door and turned around, I bumped right into Uncle’s chest.

“Uncle, didn’t you return to the teachers’ dormitory?” I had just seen Uncle leaving with Teacher Zhang!

“This is my room!”

“But this is clearly my room!” Jian Dan pouted.

“Even you are mine, let alone the room!”

His words left Jian Dan without a rebuttal.

When I first arrived at the dorm, I always felt that the single bed was a bit small, so I was careful not to move too much while sleeping. But why does it feel like the bed has grown larger since Uncle barged in?

I snuggled into Uncle’s arms and fell asleep sweetly…

Chu Liyuan could feel Jian Jian’s even breathing and knew she had fallen asleep.

Watching Jian Jian’s sleeping face, Chu Liyuan’s lips curved into a smile.

What magic does this lass possess that has me so enchanted with her?

It seems that if I don’t see her for a day, I feel uneasy all over.

Now, I can’t even bear the thought of a day without Jian Jian by my side.

I can’t even remember how I lived those thirty-plus years before I met Jian Jian.

A dreamless night…

This time Jian Dan learned her lesson; to avoid repeating yesterday’s incident, she set an alarm on her phone before going to sleep.

Her phone joyfully sang its tune on Jian Dan’s desk.

Jian Dan groped for her phone on the desk with her eyes closed, turning it off with a casual hand. But less than two minutes after turning it off, her eyes shot open again.

She looked closely at the phone, checking the 7:00 on its screen.

So she hadn’t misread; it really was 7:00!

But she distinctly remembered setting it for 6:00 yesterday!

She sat up in bed abruptly, “Uncle, get up quickly, we’re going to be late.” The assembly time set for yesterday was 7:30.

Jian Dan leaped out of bed and, seeing Uncle still loafing in bed, reached out to pull his arm, “Uncle, hurry up! It’s not good to keep everyone waiting.”

After pulling Uncle out of bed, Jian Dan rushed into the bathroom, brushing her teeth and washing her face as quickly as she could.

Then, picking up a comb beside her, she dragged it through her hair with a “ah~”—perhaps she was a bit too forceful, as she let out a cry.

The moment Jian Dan’s cry sounded, the bathroom door was simultaneously thrown open, revealing a worried Chu Liyuan outside.

“Jian Jian, are you okay?”

“Hehe, Uncle, I’m fine!” Jian Dan said awkwardly, continuing to comb her hair.

No matter how hard Jian Dan tried, she couldn’t untangle her hair; she had no idea how she managed to get her hair in such a mess while sleeping the night before.

And with Uncle right there, Jian Dan couldn’t cry out in pain, so she just had to endure it, continuing to tear at her own scalp.

The more anxious she became, the less she could untangle her hair!

Just when Jian Dan was about to start sweating with frustration, “Give it to me!” Uncle came over to her side, reaching out his hand in front of her.

Jian Dan, puzzled, placed the comb in Uncle’s outstretched hand.

Uncle took the comb and began to brush her hair gently.

His touch was so light, it didn’t hurt at all!

“Uncle, I had no idea you knew how to comb a girl’s hair!”

“I don’t! I just didn’t want to see you pulling at your scalp so forcefully anymore—it’s all red, and that hurts me!”

Jian Dan’s lips curved into a smile, “Uncle’s technique is quite professional!”

“Professional or not, I don’t know. I only know that I don’t want my lass to be in pain!”

At that moment, Jian Dan realized that it wasn’t about whether a boy could or couldn’t do something; it was whether he wanted to do it for you.. With a willing heart, he could learn without a teacher!
