"He can’t possibly participate in the fun events too, right?" Lin Li asked again.
"He’s definitely not participating in those. We have training in the afternoon, and if we skip it for this, our coach has a foul mouth and would directly curse us out. But why are you asking? We’re not competing against the seniors." Wang Ze looked a bit confused.
The school is different from the system; there’s no so-called individual ranking. So, typically, different grades have nothing to do with each other.
"Oh, nothing, just asking." Lin Li laughed it off, but his eyebrows relaxed a bit.
"Class president." Lin Li raised his head and looked back.
"Hey."
Chen Yu Ying, who was surrounded by people signing up, stood up and pushed through the crowd, managing to lock eyes with Lin Li. She asked, "What’s up?"
"I’m versatile and have a heart willing to turn to ashes for our Xue Sect. Tug-of-war is sothing I naturally wouldn’t refuse, and any other fun events that lack participants can also count in.
By the way, if any event requires a pair, just put Bai Bufan and together." Lin Li spoke up.
"Ah, oh, OK." Though a bit odd, Chen Yu Ying nodded.
"I haven’t agreed yet?" Bai Bufan, who was nearby planning to secure a project that wouldn’t be embarrassing to lose, widened his eyes upon hearing this.
Chen Yu Ying looked at Lin Li, signaling him to handle it.
Got it.
"Hold on, I’ll ask now." Lin Li nodded and pulled Bai Bufan outside.
Problem solved.
Three minutes later, the two returned, and the disheveled Bai Bufan nodded, "Asked him, Bai Bufan has no objections."
Then Bai Bufan looked at Zhou Baowei, "Also, Bao Wei, we tried it, and even if your face swelled up, it still wouldn’t be as big as yours."
Zhou Baowei: "?"
How can you two just casually roast yourselves like that?
"I’ve taken note, once the final results co out, I’ll let you know all the events you’re participating in." Chen Yu Ying nodded.
"Alright."
Lin Li nodded, snapping his fingers, and considered it done. He wasn’t intent on participating in every single fun event.
After all, being the Sect’s top priority task is just an additional task. It doesn’t matter if it isn’t completed.
Do I really need to outsmart a senior from grade twelve? No need, and it’s not like everything doubles, so why waste effort?
"Lin Li, are you joining any competitive events?" Chen Yu Ying, who saw Lin Li hovering around Wang Ze, was curious.
"Yes, tentatively the 3000 ters and 1500 ters."
"What? Those sound exhausting like long runs, are you really going to run them?" Chen Yu Ying was a bit surprised.
"Exactly, class president, make sure to send off when the ti cos." Lin Li patted his chest.
"...You an bring you water." Chen Yu Ying laughed.
"Is it the kind of water that can pass down three bowls of rice? Then, more, more, I love drinking it, Miss Chen." Lin Li winked.
Chen Yu Ying: "?"
Why did this guy bring up bathwater again?
——The three bowls of rice thing is what Lin Li said during National Day when Qu Wanqiu was taking a bath on the third floor, clearly still referring to bathwater.
Slightly blushing since there were people around, Chen Yu Ying just cursed him in her heart for being a super perverted officer and didn’t respond to Lin Li, sitting back down to continue registering everyone.
...
The evening self-study ended, and school was over.
Lin Li left quickly.
After going ho to change, he picked up a gold bar that no longer resembled a bracelet and headed toward a gold and silver recovery shop a considerable distance from his house.
Changing clothes was to avoid any trouble that wearing a school uniform might cause. The store being far away was for the sa reason.
Riding his bike, he arrived.
The shop wasn’t big, just two rooms, and the decor was quite old-fashioned. The sign wouldn’t even light up, making it quite inconspicuous at night.
Once inside, Lin Li saw there was already a custor, and the boss was talking with her. Lin Li wasn’t in a rush, so he just waited aside.
"Boss, can you increase the amount a bit? I checked before coming, and the gold price is 628 now, so why is your buyback price only 401? That’s too low." The woman complained.
"How many tis do I have to tell you before you get it? If yours was pure gold, I could also give you over 600, but this is K gold with so many imperfections. I can only offer this price. If you accept, I’ll take it; if not, you can take the gold back; stop dragging this out." The boss seed to have been haggling with the woman for quite so ti and was too impatient to continue.
"Oh, it’s not that I don’t want to sell, boss. Just add a bit more, just a bit more. There’s so many grams; you’ll definitely earn enough." She insisted.
"Sigh," the boss sighed, "Miss, could you give your mom’s WeChat, please? Thank you."
"Why?" The woman was puzzled.
"So I can add your mom." The boss said.
Woman: "?"
"Damn!" Lin Li, who was standing aside, covered his mouth and squatted, unable to hold back his laughter.
And he even said thank you; how polite.
The woman, who hadn’t reacted imdiately, blushed visibly like a tomato, then anger overtook her, pointing at the boss with trembling fingers, "You, you, you don’t respect won!"
"Respecting won is inherently difficult. If you want to respect you, you have to tell what defines a woman, right? Co on, tell , can a woman be defined?" The boss took a step forward, exuding confidence.
Woman: "?"
Lin Li: "!"
"Can’t say anything? That’s right! Won cannot be defined. If I can’t select them, how can I respect them?" The boss was expressionless, pointing at the door, "Selling or not selling? If not, take your stuff and leave."
