——Just now, Chen Yu Ying signaled to look at Lin Li by patting herself.
Then I saw Lin Li deeply focused on taking notes.
——anwhile, the movie’s plot is about the police reviewing how the killer expertly disposed of the body.
Never mind where Lin Li got the paper and pen, but why on earth is he frantically taking notes now?
Ding Sihan was genuinely scared.
"Oh, I’m just a kid taking notes for fun, don’t worry. Do you really think I’d hold a grudge for making call you ’Mom’ just to later use this against you? No way, I wouldn’t do sothing like that."
Lin Li waved his hand and said with a smile.
Ding Sihan: "..."
I might be scared to death.
Luckily, Ying Bao stepped in, patted Lin Li, and confiscated his paper and pen.
...
The movie ended, pretty average.
The three of them casually found a place to eat in the shopping center.
"Yu Ying, how are you getting ho later? Taking a taxi? It’s not safe for a girl to go ho alone at night." Halfway through eating, Ding Sihan asked, looking up.
"My family’s car is coming to pick up," Chen Yu Ying replied with a smile.
"Then, leader, you missed the chance for a warm-hearted Lin Li to escort you ho," Lin Li lanted, shaking his head. "I’ve already escorted Qu Wanqiu ho several tis, and I’m about to send Ding Sihan ho shortly. Yet, you don’t have this honor, poor thing."
"Are you going to accompany in a taxi and then take a taxi ho yourself?"
"That’s what a warm-hearted guy does."
"Next ti for sure," Chen Yu Ying responded with a charming smile.
"Wait, why are you sending ho? My house is nearby; I can just walk ho in a few minutes on a safe main road. Why don’t you just go ho yourself?" Ding Sihan was perplexed and asked with a frown.
"I’ve already said, this is how us warm-hearted gentlen roll." Lin Li adjusted his collar, flashed a slightly smug yet gentle smile at Ding Sihan: "Hanh, today I must take you ho."
"Ew——"
"Lin Li, do you have a crush on ?"
Finishing her mock gagging, Ding Sihan hugged herself and shrank into the corner, eyeing Lin Li warily.
Lin Li’s expression remained gentle, but his voice took on a slightly uncontrollable tone——
"Idiot, my bike is below your apartnt; even if your dad cos to get you, I’ll still take you ho with him."
Ding Sihan: "Huh?"
"Hahaha——"
Ding Sihan seed like an M (masochist), clearly insulted, yet laughing gleefully.
"You should have said earlier, okay, now you’re allowed to be this princess’s knight." Ding Sihan struck a pose with her hand like a flower.
"...Can’t be bothered with you." Lin Li also made the sa hand gesture back.
Fully satiated, the three settled the bill and took the escalator downstairs.
"Today was so much fun~" Ding Sihan exclaid, clutching Chen Yu Ying’s arm:
"I’m already looking forward to next week. This week it’s a plan, but no excuses, everyone has to co, ahhhh, ti, hurry up~~ I want to go to the night market~~"
Can a battle cry speed up ti?
Who knows, maybe it can, but Lin Li isn’t a ti-controller.
"Yeah." Chen Yu Ying nodded with a smile, "I’m very, very happy too."
"I’m so jealous of you all, getting to know such great friends like , having fun every day, while I’m surrounded only by a bunch of not-so-great friends."
Lin Li sighed as he strolled behind them.
"Shut up." Ding Sihan flipped him off without looking back.
And Chen Yu Ying, hearing this, looked up, locked eyes with Lin Li on the escalator, and asked, "So, were you not happy today?"
"Oof—okay, I have to admit, I was 95% happy." Lin Li thought for a mont and said.
Aside from the clueless driver on the way back, everything else was perfect today.
"And the other 5%?" Ding Sihan wasn’t satisfied and turned her head too.
"To not let you two get too arrogant, leaving room for improvent, hoping you do even better next ti." Lin Li chuckled.
"Pfft." Ding Sihan scoffed dismissively.
"Ying Bao, which door is your car parked at?" Reaching the ground floor, Ding Sihan asked.
"East gate."
"It’s this way, follow ." Familiar with the area, Ding Sihan led the way, snuggling up to Chen Yu Ying: "It’s the saddest ti of parting again, Ying Bao, my Ying Bao~"
"We’ll see each other tomorrow, and we saw each other yesterday too, how can you be sad every day?" Lin Li laughed and scolded from behind.
"Just shut your mouth, small talker, don’t say a word!"
Lin Li and Chen Yu Ying exchanged a glance.
Co to think of it, since after the National Day, the two have been seeing each other almost every day, always finding a reason every Saturday for over a month now.
"Maybe it’s because I’m too charming, even a small parting brings tears to my eyes, can’t help it," Ding Sihan sniffled, pretending to wipe away nonexistent tears.
"Who said rearranging words doesn’t affect reading comprehension?" Lin Li laughed and scolded, "Just admit you’re emotional, don’t say it’s because you’re charming."
As they walked out of the shopping center, a car with ergency lights on was parked not far away.
Lin Li recognized the driver as the Chen Family’s driver, not Chen Zhongping.
"See you tomorrow, leader."
Watching Chen Yu Ying open the car door, Lin Li lazily said with his hands behind his head.
"Okay~"
Originally, one foot already inside, Chen Yu Ying paused slightly.
"Lin Li."
She turned to look at Lin Li, her pleated skirt twirling to show dark green ripples as she pivoted.
"Uh, I’m here, what’s up——"
In a sudden mont of return, Chen Yu Ying’s shoe lightly kicked a half silver ginkgo leaf on the ground.
She practically closed her eyes as she ca crashing into Lin Li’s arms, the scent of citrus shampoo from her sweater blending with the unique freshness of youth as their fabrics brushed spun up and disseminated.
"It must be 100% happiness~"
With her face tilted up, her voice brushed lightly across the boy’s heart like a feather.
The streetlight brightly illuminated the blush extending from her ear down beneath her collar.
Then, as if fleeing, Chen Yu Ying quickly climbed into the back seat, not caring when her knee bumped the soft rubber glued to the car door with a dull thud.
Perhaps hurriedly instructing the driver, a mont later, the taillights lit up, and the vehicle gradually disappeared.
Leaving behind Lin Li, still standing in place with the scent lingering.
Oh right, there’s also Ding Sihan standing nearby.
The two of them had a curiously synchronized expression, dumbstruck as they watched the car blend into traffic.
Still shocked, Ding Sihan finally closed her mouth, swallowed, and licked her slightly dry lips.
Coming over to Lin Li’s side, she elbowed him in the ribs and, not turning her head, still looked at Chen Yu Ying’s departure direction in disbelief as she spoke:
"Whoa, Lin Li, aren’t you two... acting cool anymore?"
Lin Li slowly crouched halfway, elbowed Ding Sihan in her ribs (since he couldn’t reach her waist without crouching, and elbowing her chest would be sleazy), and after hearing a cry of pain beside him, also didn’t turn his head, still looking in the direction Chen Yu Ying left, shook his head and replied:
"I don’t know, did she, um... did she stop acting??"
