Very Very Dislike [MTL] (Completed)

Chapter 42 Do you find me annoying? !

Early in the morning, I opened the door feeling refreshed. The air outside was still chilly, but because the sun was so bright, the coldness was only on the surface and didn't make people shy away.

He Nanyuan was chopping firewood in an open space next to the temple. He said before that he had been chopping firewood since he was a child. I thought he was just handing wood to help when the adults were chopping firewood, but who would have thought that he was actually chopping firewood.

He took off his two arms from the outermost robe, and tied the sleeves casually around his waist. He breathed white air from his mouth. He stared intently at the tree stump in front of him. He raised the sharp ax above his head and chopped it down with precision. Easily, he split a log into two halves.

"Hello!"

As soon as I walked over, he stopped.

"Have you eaten anything?" he asked, inspecting the connection between the ax head and the handle.

"I've eaten." Since I grew up in the city, I have never touched axes or knives a few times. I couldn't help but be full of curiosity about the work he was doing, and said, "You give me a try, I will I haven’t chopped firewood yet.”

When He Nanyuan heard this, he did not readily agree immediately. Instead, he looked at me up and down. Although he didn't say anything, the silence here was better than the sound. This moment of hesitation was very revealing.

I took off my coat and hung it on a tree nearby. I rolled up the sleeves of my sweater and said dissatisfiedly, "What's that look in your eyes? Do you look down on me?"

Men cannot be excited. Originally, I just wanted to try the feeling of chopping firewood briefly. Now I plan to chop all the remaining piles of firewood to let He Nanyuan see the courage of Haicheng men.

I grabbed the ax from his hand, bent down to pick up a log and placed it on the stake. I took two steps back, raised my arm and made a confident chop.

Then it split.

The ax blade struck the edge of the log crookedly, and only a small piece of wood was chipped off. The tip of the ax was embedded in the wooden stake due to too much force and could not be pulled out.

It was a bad start, my face felt a little hot, and I was just trying to find an excuse to warm up and get over the previous part. He Nanyuan came up from behind, squeezed me away with an expression of "that's it", stepped on the wooden stake and lifted the axe. Pulled it out.

"With your legs like this, lunge..." He taught me on the spot and demonstrated to me step by step, "Don't keep your hands too close, separate them a little apart, hold them one after another... You are a novice, after aiming Don't swing your arms too high, as it will be easy to split it... Just about this high will be enough." After saying that, he slashed down, perfectly splitting the log that I had crooked into two halves again.

"I understand, I understand!" I stepped forward and took the ax from his hand.

He didn't step away immediately, but instead wrapped his body around me from behind and corrected my posture.

"Hold it here." He took my hand and held it in the middle of the ax handle.

"Spread your feet further." He inserted his knee between my legs and kicked my feet to both sides.

To be honest, my mind was no longer on chopping wood.

He Nanyuan's body smells very good. When he was in school, he also wore school uniform and always had a very refreshing soapy scent on his body. After changing into the Seru clothes, the soap scent faded away, but there was another faint sandalwood scent similar to that of burning incense.
