"So Lin Li, why did you specially go and style your hair today?" Chen Yu Ying indeed cheered herself up in seconds and turned back to ask curiously.
Seeing Lin Li's gaze following her left ear, she glared at him again.
Lin Li: "Yesterday I had a call with my mom and felt a bit guilty, I'm fulfilling my filial duty."
Chen Yu Ying: "?"
"Our bodies, hair, and skin are given by our parents, so taking good care of my hair is akin to taking good care of my mom," Lin Li explained, "I even specially withdrew the money for my haircut from my mom's pension account."
That's his filial duty.
Oh, filial piety.
"...Does Auntie know about your way of showing filial piety?" Chen Yu Ying's laughter ca with a sigh.
"Filial piety is a duty, no need to show off, I didn't tell her." Lin Li humbly waved his hand:
"Filial piety is like underwear, everyone has it and wears it, but if soone deliberately wears it outside to show others, then there's a problem—except for Superman. Class rep, do you think I'm right? Listen to the applause."
"Right, right?" Chen Yu Ying said a bit uncertainly.
But she didn't clap.
"Then that's settled." Lin Li smiled gently, seeing Chen Yu Ying's cheeks slightly puffing up, looking at him with a bit of dissatisfaction, he continued to smile and explain:
"This morning, I passed by the barbershop and on a whim wanted to try it out; who can refuse to beco more handso, right? Class rep, didn't you also curl your hair?"
A gentleman uses words not hands, but Lin Li is no gentleman, so he talked and also reached out.
The hair ends were smooth and silky, making him want to sink all five fingers into it.
"Alright." Lin Li wasn't wrong, and Chen Yu Ying didn't insist further on it.
After a few more steps, they saw three people outside the beverage shop, and Chen Yu Ying waved her hand and stepped forward.
"Yu Ying, you look great today, where'd you buy those pants?"
"I'll send the link later, not expensive, and your set looks great too..."
Classic mutual comrcial flattery session.
Lin Li thought the world would be interesting if girls had a polygraph above their heads while talking.
"Did you touch it?" Qu Wanqiu quietly approached and opened with sothing quite perverse.
"No." Lin Li shook his head.
"I see." Qu Wanqiu nodded, then suddenly altered her voice, shouted "Ying Bao," rushed up to hold Chen Yu Ying's cheeks with both hands, fingers indecently moving around the ear, then provocatively looked at Lin Li.
Dealt with again, Lin Li sighed, pinching Bai Bufan's butt as a way to vent.
Bai Bufan did not resist; better not let him play with Wang Ze in the future as this reaction isn't right.
I'm even shipping us a bit.
"Why aren't you two drinking?" After understanding the situation, Chen Yu Ying asked Lin Li.
"Strolling around there's bound to be other drinks; if we buy milk tea now, there'll be no choice later on, it'd be a waste." Lin Li shrugged and said.
Bai Bufan widened his eyes; it turned out you didn't actually despise fruit tea as a hybrid drink, you had a real reason.
"Yeah, that's what I thought too." So Bai Bufan also nodded heavily.
Ignoring Lin Li's disdainful gaze.
With the girls' drinks bought, the five of them officially started browsing the market.
The stalls on both sides of Pinglu Street were relatively conventional, nothing too dazzling, and what Lin Li found interesting last night was beyond the street by the riverside, where there was more space and variety.
There were quite a few clothing stalls, but the girls mostly just glanced and passed by without stopping.
It's not that they disliked street goods, mainly these styles and designs didn't suit them at all, so were simply fabric shops, generally only older people would go in.
And without trying on clothes, if you were to buy, you might as well go to the mall.
What could attract girls to pause were the stalls selling accessories, dolls, and the like.
"Lin Li, why are you staring at the ground? Don't lower your head, the crown might fall."
Bai Bufan and Lin Li naturally weren't interested in these, and when Bai Bufan, intending to talk to Lin Li, noticed Lin Li constantly looking down, he asked in confusion.
"I'm thinking, you know Earth has 70% oceans and 30% land, so where did the other 30% of oceans and 70% of land go?" Lin Li casually replied.
Lin Li wasn't actually thinking about that but was just seeing if there were any lost valuables on the ground to give his "gold" progress bar a helping hand.
"The 30% oceans are buried under dirt and the 70% land is flooded." Bai Bufan answered.
"Then you're quite smart." Lin Li gave a perfunctory complint.
Then he sighed, holding the paynt board hanging on the canopy, one side with a WeChat QR code, the other with an Alipay QR code, and sighed:
"Bufan, I suddenly miss the days when people still used cash. Now it's all electronic paynts, it's convenient but lacks human warmth."
Of course, human warmth isn't important, mainly the money on the ground has lessened—so far Lin Li's haul is only one coin, nothing else.
Bai Bufan looked at Lin Li speechlessly:
"No, Lin Li, even if you're eighteen old Deng, how many years of cash-dominated paynt era have you really experienced to be lanting as if you're so grandpa."
"Hehe."
But then Bai Bufan gazed at the collection code Lin Li held, suddenly pinching his chin, hesitantly speaking: "But, hey, Lin Li."
"Hmm?"
"You say, using black and white people's heads to build a Jingguan, could it be made into a paynt QR code?" Bai Bufan asked.
Lin Li: "(;☉_☉)?"
Lin Li was sweating small beans: "In theory, yes, but Bai Bufan, don't you think you're being a bit too ruthless?"
"Lin Li you—"
"—You can just use black people's heads, peel them, they're white underneath, no need for white people's heads, expensive and troubleso." Lin Li continued,
"Toutah Le Toutah Le, black's just need Toutah Le~"
Just hearing the first part, Bai Bufan wanted to question Lin Li for pretending to be a big shot, but hearing the latter part, he beca sweaty:
"Bro, my issue, you do have an economic brain."
