Chen Yu Ying blinked.
She wanted to call this guy a fool.
But that thought never turned into words.
Nothing’s holding her back; she’s just worried Lin Li might enjoy being scolded too much.
"Young Master Lin, I’ve improved, but what about your scores?" Chen Yu Ying sighed lightly, with a mix of helplessness and indulgent amusent.
"? Am I that important?" Lin Li said indifferently.
"Whether you’re heavy or not, I want you." Chen Yu Ying nodded without hesitation, her beautiful eyes staring straight into Lin Li’s, and clearly repeated: "You’re very important."
Lin Li: "(￣︶￣)~~"
So satisfying.
Ying Bao’s surprise attack was amazing!
"Even if I turn into soone like Liangzi, you still want ?" Lin Li decided to tease her.
"Who is Liangzi?" Chen Yu Ying frowned.
"Ying Bao, do you know the Wind God Pterosaur? It lived during the Late Cretaceous, about 84 million to 65 million years ago, stood 6 ters tall, with a wingspan of 12 ters – currently the largest known flying animal. You might be curious why I’m introducing this now, because it’s 40 pounds lighter than Liangzi."
Lin Li gave Chen Yu Ying a science lesson:
"If you throw sothing at Liangzi, it won’t hit him, but will orbit around him, known as Little Bao Wei."
Chen Yu Ying: "..."
Initially, she imagined Liangzi was a Japanese girl’s or animal’s na, similar to Ryuko and Tamako, but now...her fantasy completely shattered.
After thinking for a while, Chen Yu Ying earnestly told Lin Li: "Lin Li, if you’re that heavy, then I don’t want you."
Lin Li: "(•́へ•́╬)!!"
"Hey!!! No!"
"We were talking so nicely just now, how could you change your mind? Was it just sweet talk to deceive ? Woman, your na is Lie!"
"But...it’s said that being loved brings growth of flesh and blood; you like so much, I might really beco that heavy!"
Chen Yu Ying shook her head, with a more serious look: "Lin Li, that’s not called flesh and blood, that’s called fat."
Lin Li: "OVO."
Ying Bao pretending to be serious was also quite cute.
Love brings growth of flesh and blood, indulgence brings growth of fat.
Looks like Chen Yu Ying doesn’t want to indulge him.
Well, this phrase is pretty good to keep in mind, and use it to attack Bao Wei when the opportunity arises.
—That’s brotherhood, bro; when sothing good cos up, you think of your pals first.
"Okay, let’s get back to the topic," Chen Yu Ying said, shifting the conversation, "Although you’re heavy and I don’t want you, your grades have dropped. If Aunt Wu thinks I’m affecting your scores, what then?"
"She won’t." Lin Li answered instantly, "Aunt Wu won’t find any fault with you; she’ll only find problems with ."
Chen Yu Ying felt sothing was off, then raised her eyebrows when she realized it: "Why are you also calling her Aunt Wu?"
Lin Li remained expressionless: "Because since the parent-teacher eting, I can’t acknowledge or reveal she’s my mom to anyone without her permission."
Chen Yu Ying: "?"
Wow, Lin Li’s family dynamics are really harmonious.
Not ironically, Chen Yu Ying genuinely felt Lin Li and Wu Min had a particularly good relationship.
"But there’s really no need for that." Yet, about his grades, Chen Yu Ying still felt uneasy.
"Alright, then I’ll have to tell you the real reason — I’m purely retaliating against Old Jian..."
Lin Li noticed Chen Yu Ying seed to believe him, so he repeated the justification he explained to Xue Jian that morning.
After listening, Chen Yu Ying had a complicated look, unsure what to say.
Lin Li had already inford her about Xue Jian monitoring the exam at room 20 last night, but he hadn’t ntioned this ’retaliation tactic’ in advance.
So childish, yet so quintessentially Lin Li.
When Lin Li entered high school, he was placed in class four, truly Xue Jian’s misfortune.
But they could only continue to make Xue Jian suffer, because if Lin Li weren’t in class four, she’d be quite bored.
Teacher Xue! I can only apologize to you on behalf of my boyfriend (.﹏.*)!
Though she’s unsure what the girl is thinking, seeing her slightly pursed lips, with a touch of guilt yet can’t help but smile softly, made Lin Li unable to resist poking her cheek with his finger.
Which earned him a reproachful glare.
"Answer sheets are submitted; what’s done is done. It’s no longer important; we should now look towards the future,"
Lin Li wasn’t affected by that glare at all; instead, he stood solemnly as if addressing a superior, saluted seriously:
"Commander Ying, after this afternoon’s exam, the weekend begins. Regarding this unknowable weekend, your subordinate questions if there are any instructions or plans for tonight."
Seeing Lin Li ntion this, Chen Yu Ying’s focus imdiately shifted from feeling sorry to concentrating on the weekend.
After all, she knew well what mattered most.
—Important, as in significantly weighty, not in terms of body weight.
"Tonight’s only plan is for you to rest well and prepare to play with all day tomorrow." Chen Yu Ying chuckled as she commanded.
"Yes, Commander!" Lin Li stood tall, "But is rest alone enough? Should your subordinate procure supplies for tomorrow’s actions? What ti shall we gather and set off?"
"No need, I’ll prepare." Chen Yu Ying shook her head, paused in her words, glanced at the cloudy sky, and with slight uncertainty in her voice, asked: "Lin Li, check your phone; what’s the weather forecast for tomorrow?"
It’s currently Friday noon; as the current grade’s top student — at least for now — Lin Li unabashedly took out his phone in the hallway.
The phone showed tomorrow would be cloudy too.
However, the weather forecast for early the day after tomorrow showed rain.
"In that case, we should prepare for possible rain." Chen Yu Ying frowned slightly, contemplating backup plans.
Chen Yu Ying did make a few plans last weekend for their outing, considering both rainy and non-rainy scenarios.
