Chapter 271 Playmate
After leaving the study, Cheng Anyue did not return to her room, but went downstairs directly.
Today's weather is good, and the winter in City A is always warm.
When she went out, she saw An Shikai playing football on the grass.
Half a year later, she felt that he seemed to have grown taller.
He had a kind of vitality, which seemed to make this winter lively.
As if he noticed someone was watching him, An Shikai stopped moving, turned his head and saw Cheng Anyue.
He frowned slightly and kicked the ball away.
In fact, they met quite a few times, but they didn't talk seriously.
Cheng Anyue turned her head and walked towards the lake.
Although it was winter, there were many potted plants by the lake, and small flowers of various colors were blooming.
The An family mansion was very large, and there was a greenhouse dedicated to cultivating flowers and plants.
She remembered that she had told her brother before that she hoped to plant many flowers here, but she didn't expect that the whole lake would be surrounded by flowers during the winter vacation.
At this moment, a scream came from behind, "Hey, be careful!"
Cheng Anyue turned back subconsciously and saw a football flying towards her.
She was so scared that her face turned pale, her limbs were stiff, and she stood still.
With a "bang", the ball hit her legs.
Her legs softened, her body fell backwards, and she sat on the ground.
An Shikai ran over quickly, picked up the ball on the ground, and was about to leave. Seeing Cheng Anyue with a painful face on the ground, he hesitated and asked, "Are you okay?"
Cheng Anyue felt that her legs were not hers. She looked at An Shikai's guilty look and smiled and said, "I'm fine."
As she said that, she slowly climbed up.
But her legs still hurt, which made it a little difficult for her to stand.
An Shikai hesitated, threw away the football in his hand, and walked over to support her.
"Are you okay?"
Cheng Anyue shook her head, "I'm fine, I'll be fine after a while."
An Shikai looked around and pointed to the bench in front and said, "Go over there."
"Yeah!" Cheng Anyue let him help her over.
Sitting on the bench, Cheng Anyue rubbed her legs. She was sure that it was bone pain, but she was embarrassed to blame An Shikai, and he didn't mean it.
An Shikai saw Cheng Anyue's painful face and said, "I'll call the housekeeper over."
"No need!" Cheng Anyue stopped him.
"But don't you feel a lot of pain?" An Shikai hesitated.
Cheng Anyue patted her legs and said, "Fortunately, it doesn't hurt that much. If the housekeeper knew, he would definitely alarm my brother."
In the past six months, An Shikai has also understood Cheng Anyue's position in An Shijue's heart, and he doesn't doubt what she said at all.
He looked at her and asked, "Are you afraid that I will be punished by my eldest brother?"
Cheng Anyue glanced at him and said nothing.
"Do you think I will be grateful to you for this?" An Shikai frowned.
"I don't want your gratitude." Cheng Anyue replied, "It's the New Year, it's better to be harmonious at home."
An Shikai was still a little unhappy, but it was rare that he didn't mock her.
After a moment of silence, he said, "I'm sorry."
"It's okay." Cheng Anyue smiled.
She was three years older than An Shikai, and it was impossible for her to embarrass someone younger than her.
She rubbed her leg, and it didn't seem to hurt so much.
She got up and walked around, and after making sure she was fine, she said to An Shikai, "I'm fine, can I play football with you?"
"You?" An Shikai looked at her in surprise.
"Yes, can't I play football?" Cheng Anyue asked.
"Can you?" An Shikai looked her up and down.
"Don't look down on me, okay? When I was a kid, I rarely played football with my brothers and sisters in our village." Cheng Anyue snorted.
Village? Sure enough, he was a country boy.
An Shikai glanced at Cheng Anyue, but didn't continue to mock.
"Don't blame me if you get kicked again." He said in advance.
"Don't worry, I'm not that shameless."
On the second floor, An Shijue went back to his room to change clothes, and heard a cheerful laugh coming from the balcony.
When he walked out of the balcony, he saw Cheng Anyue and An Shikai playing football together, looking so happy.
