Chapter 44 300+350=650
Organizations others joined: Azure Dragon Study Group, Genius Club, Tarot Club.
The organization that Lin Jianlu joined: Luma Yan Group.
You know what I mean, it's just...
"I don't want to join," Lin Jianlu said dejectedly at that time.
"That won't do. I've told you the secret, so you have to join whether you want to or not! You absolutely have to join!"
And so, Lin Jianlu had no choice but to join the Deer, Horse and Swallow Group, whose very name was enough to make one feel uneasy, and to do some bizarre things with Yan Yiyan, like killing herself.
"that……"
Damn it, what on earth happened? How did Lin Baolong offend Yan Yiyan to make her have such a bad impression of him?
There's something I'd like to tell you.
Lin Jianlu thought about it carefully for a long time, but she couldn't think of anything she had done to offend Yan Yiyan. On the contrary, she felt that Yan Yiyan was a very sensitive person. Maybe it was just a small, unintentional action of hers that made her hold a grudge.
"Hey, are you even listening to me?"
This guy is making a mountain out of a molehill; she still doesn't think she's a good woman.
"Lin Jianlu!!!"
"Huh? What's wrong?" As if waking from a dream, Lin Jianlu suddenly looked up and saw Chen Chen's slightly pursed lips under the gloomy sky.
She remembered that the homeroom teacher said the grade head had let them leave school early because there might be a heavy rainstorm today.
No wonder the weather is so gloomy, and there's even a gust of wind.
They were at the school gate at that moment. Cheng Xiuxiu's Maybach had just driven away. Since they were going in opposite directions home, they couldn't hitch a ride with her.
You stepped on my foot.
"Oh, I'm sorry..."
The blonde girl quickly moved aside and backed away.
"Why do I feel like you've been distracted these past few days?"
"Is there?"
"Of course! Haven't you noticed we've been talking less lately?"
Isn't it all your fault? Every day after class, you stick to Cheng Xiuxiu and can't bear to be apart. Anyone who didn't know better would think she was your wife!
But what does this have to do with me? Let him find whoever he wants!
Despite feeling a nameless anger, Lin Jianlu still felt it wasn't his fault.
"So what if you don't talk much? We see each other all the time, why would you have so much to say?"
The girl answered hesitantly.
"Too."
Chen Chen nodded, then frowned and slowly spoke:
"There's something I've been thinking about for a while, but I've been hesitant. Now I feel it's time to say it."
"What is it?"
Lin Jianlu crossed her arms, turned her head to the side, her expression calm. The drifting wind ruffled her golden hair, and the gloomy weather only made her delicate and beautiful profile appear even more radiant.
She guessed that he probably wanted to walk home from school with Cheng Xiuxiu in the future, so that they would have more time to spend together.
But this left her all alone.
But it's good, she already found Chen Chen a bit annoying.
In addition, her leg had almost fully recovered, and she had no problem riding an electric scooter.
She had finally gotten the freedom she had been waiting for.
"I think……"
"Stop beating around the bush, just say what you want to say, I'm not going to eat you!"
You have to let me speak. What do you mean by interrupting me just as I'm about to say something?
Chen Chen felt that Lin Jianlu seemed to be quite irritable lately. He didn't know if it was directed at him or what, but he was a little worried that she would reject him if they talked about it.
But since things have come to this point, there's no point in him stammering anymore.
"I'd like to borrow some money from you."
Upon hearing this, the scene fell silent for a moment, and Chen Chen could only hear the whistling wind.
Oh no, will this tightwad get angry? You know, when he was a kid, he'd have to sign an IOU if he borrowed 50 cents from her to buy an ice pop, let alone now he'd be borrowing many, many times more than 50 cents!
He had even prepared for the rejection and his response.
Hmm... since she's been silent all this time, it probably means it's not working.
He had no choice but to lower his head and speak again:
"Sorry, since..."
"Pfft..." The girl's soft laughter sounded particularly abrupt in the strong wind.
"Huh?" Chen Chen looked up and saw Lin Jianlu covering her mouth, seemingly trying her best to suppress her laughter.
Such girlish gestures; he had almost never seen her act like this before, even though she always liked to act cool.
"What are you laughing at?"
"What am I laughing at? I'm not laughing!" Lin Jianlu was as stubborn as ever. After stopping laughing, she quickly put her hands on her hips, almost instinctively distancing herself from her past self.
At the same time, in order to get around the topic as quickly as possible, before Chen Chen could even speak, she rattled off a long string of words:
"What do you need the money for? To spend money on in-game purchases? I can only give you 328 plus a monthly card, I can't afford 648, and I'm not going to play any games with you. Just pay me back 600 within two months."
Damn it, look how cunning you are! You're not going to pull off thirteen tricks, you're going to pull off fourteen, aren't you?
However, he is currently short of funds, so even though the other party's conditions are outrageous, Chen Chen has no choice but to swallow his anger.
"I want to buy shoes."
"what?"
Lin Jianlu was instantly stunned.
Good heavens, this is unprecedented! Chen Chen has never cared about his appearance. She would pay for the clothes she picked out for him without even glancing at them. Over time, she became too lazy to pick out clothes for him anymore. She would just send him whatever men's clothing she saw on Pinduoduo, and a few days later he would be wearing it.
Yes, because she didn't see it clearly at the time, that's how he got those fake Nikes on his feet.
But why is this unkempt guy suddenly buying shoes?
Lin Jianlu looked down at Chen Chen's feet. Although the fake Nikes were ugly and a bit deformed, they weren't torn, which perfectly matched this idiot's definition of "wearable".
"Why do you want to buy it?" she asked, puzzled.
Chen Chen's gaze was serious: "Because Yan Yiyan is right."
"Where is it right?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Chen smiled shyly and squinted his eyes in rapture.
"She told me to talk to Xiuxiu as soon as I got home from school, and these past few days I've felt that Xiuxiu has become much closer to me..."
Ah, so this kind of operation requires guidance...
"That's why I say Yan Yiyan is right!" Chen Chen looked up, his gaze firm. "Whatever decision Yan Yiyan makes, I will resolutely carry it out; whatever guidance Yan Yiyan gives me, I will unwaveringly support!"
"And Yan Yiyan, now she wants me to buy shoes, saying that my current shoes are too ugly and that Xiuxiu will be unhappy if she sees them."
[Side Quest 2: Clothes make the man, buy shoes for your son. Reward: Minimum mental health value +1%, intimacy +2%, maternal love +5]
Lin Jianlu glanced at the suddenly appearing task, then at Chen Chen's excited face, and couldn't help but sigh.
Sigh, what can I do? I'll just buy it. Consider it a boost to my maternal instincts.
"How much are those shoes... I'll buy them for you." She coughed lightly and asked.
"Six hundred and fifty, thank you!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Jianlu's eyes widened instantly.
300 + 350 = 650, system, fuck your mother!
