Chapter 365

~15 min read 2,838 words

Immortal Venerable Antenna was reborn, reborn on the day he was besieged by ten thousand people.

These ten thousand people are "Bai Bugou," "Baigoufan," "Goubufan," "Wang Shaohui," "Nalan Jianguo," "Murong Tiezhu," "Shangguan Cuihua," "Patrick Reed," "Bobby Andrews," "Obadiah Jefferson," "Ivanovich Igor Ostrovsky"... (the names of the remaining 9989 people are not omitted here)...

Lin Li wrote like this, easily reaching one hundred thousand words.

Don't ask why there are foreigners besieging this Immortal Venerable, because Lin Li originally tried to use four-character names, but later found that he had narrowed his path. Aren't foreigners, especially Russians, names longer?

But after this novel with 100,000 words updated daily was released, the task progress didn't move at all.

So Lin Li felt that either he had found the wrong direction, or he was "watering" too low-level. Maybe he needed the kind of "watering" that readers couldn't see.

Who on earth can do such "watering"? Lin Li really finds it hard to imagine.

But there's no need to think so much. Not finding an abstract way is now harmless. After all, he is about to complete this task by brute force.

Lin Li doesn't like abstract things at all.

Returning to the locker room and picking up his phone, Lin Li saw the message that Chen Yuying had already returned home.

He originally planned to buy a ticket again before closing the venue to swim for a while longer, but he immediately changed his plan and went out to take a taxi.

"Thank you, driver."

Lin Li got off in the city center, and in the bustling traffic, he found the right location according to the map.

Then he took out his phone.

"Lin Li: What are you doing, what are you doing, what are you doing."

"Chen Yuying: I'm currently on the bed in my room, obediently waiting for the phone call we agreed on this morning."

"Chen Yuying: Are you done with your work?"

"Lin Li: The address on the class directory is correct, right?"

"Chen Yuying: Hmm? What's wrong?"

"Lin Li: It's correct, right? It's correct, right?"

"Chen Yuying: 【Bear nods】"

"Lin Li: Then is it convenient for you to go to the west side of your house, and then open a window and look down?"

"Chen Yuying: Eh?"

"Lin Li: 【Image】"

Chen Yuying didn't reply to this low-angle photo of the building.

Lin Li didn't send any more, but stood on the street opposite the building, looking up at the fourteenth floor, waiting.

It didn't make him wait long. In less than a minute, a person appeared in the gap of the heavy curtains and opened the window.

The movement was very fast, and one could even hallucinate a "swish" sound.

Chen Yuying rested her hands on the windowsill stained with the night color. The warm orange light spilled out from behind her, casting a warm, soft glow on the hair she had put up because she had just taken a shower.

The evening breeze swept across the height of the fourteenth floor, her sleeves were lifted into ripples, and a few strands of hair swept across her pleasantly slightly parted lips, shiny.

Lin Li's eyesight is very good now, so although they were far apart, he could see quite clearly.

Very beautiful, even worth activating 【Strong Sense】 to memorize.

Of course, it's actually hard to forget even without activating it.

The WeChat call was instantly connected. Lin Li looked up and made eye contact with Chen Yuying, his voice filled with a smile: "Here, here, isn't the agreed-upon phone call here now?"

"Lin Li, why did you come?"

The joy and surprise in the young girl's voice couldn't be hidden at all, and she also waved at Lin Li.

"Are you being a bit bossy? My location is public, right? Why can't I come?" Lin Li frowned.

Then he remembered that Chen Yuying probably couldn't see such subtle changes in his expression, so he simply stopped frowning.

"Heh—" Chen Yuying's laughter was crisp and pleasant, and she responded with a voice tinged with sweetness: "That's not what I meant. I'm asking why you suddenly came downstairs to my house."

"Wanted to see you." Lin Li waved at Chen Yuying with one hand.

The wind tightened without warning. Chen Yuying's hairband, which wasn't tied well because of her hasty movements, suddenly broke free, rolled into the night like a butterfly, and fell toward the ground.

The young girl gave a light cry and reached out to try to grab it but missed, and could only follow it with her eyes.

"What a coincidence, it came to me."

The voice came from the phone by his ear. Chen Yuying, looking down, happened to meet Lin Li's smiling, raised palm below—that touch of light blue was lying quietly in his hand.

How magical.

The wind is bad, Lin Li is good.

Lin Li put the hairband directly on his wrist, acting like a robber but very arrogantly, and smiled at the phone: "Things that come into my hands are mine."

"But I've already bought the hair tie that fits your wrist better." Chen Yuying's voice was soft, she rested her chin on the windowsill, looked at Lin Li, and answered.

A small hair tie is a thing to declare sovereignty, how could she not prepare it?

It was just because it would look very strange and deliberate for a boy to have a hair tie on his wrist at school, so she didn't give it to him immediately.

"Heh, Class Monitor, maybe our statuses are different. It's normal that you don't understand the living conditions of my class. For a rich person like me, I usually have three whole sets of school uniforms to take turns wearing."

Lin Li first pretended to be surprised, then laughed, and said proudly and contemptuously:

"Class Monitor, you wouldn't be wearing the same school uniform until it's washed white, would you? Tsk, how pitiful." "I~ know~." Chen Yuying, who understood Lin Li's meaning, responded with a laugh in her voice, which was punctuated.

It seems she needs to pick a few more for this guy.

This almost coquettish voice would make anyone who heard it immediately drop their disguise, but fortunately, Lin Li is not a person, so he was still immersed in his role-playing, and said lightly:

"Class Monitor, knowing is useless, it's too late. Do you see the sad barrier between us?"

The young girl leaning on the window on the fourteenth floor tilted her head, looked at the young master high above downstairs, pondered for a while, and nodded:

"I see it. Then, Young Master Lin~ do you see my dad who is carrying cement and sand downstairs? If the elevator goes smoothly, he should be out by now."

Young Master Lin: "(;o_o)?"

New account, don't mess around.

"I am a young master! I'm not afraid of him!" Lin Li said sternly.

Responding to him on the phone was the girl's continuous laughter. On the windowsill, Chen Yuying even bent over because of this laughter.

"Then Lin Li, why are you hiding behind the trash can?"

—Just now, after Lin Li heard the news, he looked left and right, and finally, regardless of the surprised looks of passersby, he hid behind a public trash can and squatted down in a panic.

And Chen Yuying upstairs naturally saw this whole process clearly.

"Oh, oh, so this is a trash can. I thought it was Bufan. Hey, look at this mess. I wasn't hiding. I just wanted to say hello to Bufan. Sigh, it's all because the two of them have the same smell, it got me confused."

Lin Li poked his head out, carefully looking at the entrance of the building, while arguing on the phone.

Lin Li really wasn't afraid of Chen Zhongping before.

After all, he was a Shenzhen person at that time, not afraid of shadows.

But now that he has really taken off the little cotton-padded jacket of the Zhongdeng and put it on himself, even if he is a cultivator, he has to avoid the edge for a while.

"Where is Uncle?" Lin Li's voice quickly became relaxed, and then he realized: "Is Uncle carrying cement and sand downstairs because he intends to repair this building?

I saw it early on, this is a shoddy project!

Just right, just right, I have experience. Class Monitor, let me tell you, 32.5 grade cement, if you are plastering the ground, the mud-sand ratio of 1:4.5 is actually the most suitable..."

Lin Li began to teach the way of civil engineering.

These knowledge points were all taught to him by Grandpa Fu in the morning and verified by his own practice.

But, if it's for the sake of pouring a human pillar, asking how to make the smell of the dead person inside dissipate the latest, don't ask Lin Li, Grandpa didn't teach that.

Lin Li doesn't want to know this ratio either, it's unnecessary.

It's not useful. It's a society ruled by law, what's the point of knowing it?

"Lying to you, he didn't go downstairs. My dad is in the bathroom. Don't hide behind the trash can anymore. Passersby think you're sick. Several people who just passed by kept looking back at you after walking away." Chen Yuying laughed.

"Looking back is just because I'm handsome," Lin Li immediately stood up and straightened his collar: "And I wasn't hiding. I said it, I'm a young master, I'm not afraid of him!"

Chen Yuying changed the subject: "But now he is really going downstairs."

The young master immediately squatted down, returned to Bai Bufan's embrace, returned to being a secret agent, poked his head out and stared at the entrance of the building, acting sneaky.

Since coming to the window, Chen Yuying's mouth couldn't be put down at all.

However, Lin Li's exaggerated movements this time were too fake.

Chen Yuying could clearly see that Lin Li was just cooperating with her to make her laugh.

But even knowing this, Chen Yuying still couldn't control herself, and even thinking that this was a posture Lin Li specifically displayed for her, she would have an extra sense of happiness.

"Lying to me again?" After waiting for a while and not seeing Chen Zhongping, Lin Li asked.

"I'm really not lying to you this time, but the one going downstairs isn't my dad, it's me." Chen Yuying on the window waved at Lin Li, her figure retreating: "Young Master, wait for me to find you~"

"If this is inconvenient, don't, okay?" But Lin Li shook his head and stopped her with a smile:

"I came here today purely because I wanted to see you.

As for the reason, it's actually very simple. We see each other every day after returning from the National Day, right? There are always active or passive reasons to meet on Saturdays. Since we could meet every day before we were together, there's no reason why we can't meet on the first weekend after being together.

So I came, it's just that simple.

Now the task is achieved, it's already perfect, we can wait until tomorrow.

Your parents are both at home, right? Then going down would require explaining blah blah, it's unnecessary."

This was indeed Lin Li's real thought for coming here today, and it wasn't temporary. He planned to do this on Friday.

To some extent, it can also be considered a "spark-continuing" behavior.

"No," when Chen Yuying said this, Lin Li could no longer see her: "I told my dad I'm going downstairs to get a package, and then buy a drink by the way. As long as it's not too long, he won't find out."

"You want to see me, and I want to see you, but I want to be closer. You walked so far toward me, so I have to run toward you too."

Even the most rock-solid person couldn't resist such words. Lin Li could be a person this time.

Moreover, Lin Li also wanted to be closer and closer, so he had to nod with a smile: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

Actually, Lin Li wanted to go up himself.

He had the guts.

Of course, not the guts to enter from the front door.

But the guts to climb up using the long hair Chen Yuying let down from the window.

—High building, prince, princess, evil warlock, the elements are very complete, aren't they?

Chen Zhongping walked out of the bathroom and happened to see Chen Yuying putting on her shoes at the entrance.

"Yingying, are you going downstairs? What for?" Chen Zhongping asked in surprise.

Chen Yuying rarely goes out after taking a shower.

"Going downstairs to get a package, maybe buy a drink by the way." Chen Yuying looked up at her dad and said the draft she had prepared.

"Oh, oh." Chen Zhongping straightened his bathrobe and nodded.

He didn't think much about it. Chen Zhongping's imagination wasn't rich enough yet, and he couldn't guess for the time being that the pillar of the nation he was thinking about was waiting for his little cotton-padded jacket downstairs.

But the joyful aura Chen Yuying exuded was indeed hard not to notice, so Chen Zhongping still asked casually with curiosity:

"What package did you buy that arrived? You can be so happy."

"It has nothing to do with the package." Chen Yuying, who had tied her shoelaces, stood up, her voice light, and smiled at Chen Zhongping.

"Then why are you so happy?"

Chen Yuying thought for a moment, pondered for a while, and then said: "Because I learned a new piece of knowledge."

"Oh?"

His daughter is indeed the type of character who is happy because she has mastered new things, but she has been playing with her parents all day today, and the tutor won't come to the house until tomorrow, so Chen Zhongping asked:

"What knowledge?"

Chen Yuying's eyes were full of cunning: "Dad, 32.5 grade cement, if you are plastering the ground, the mud-sand ratio of 1:4.5 is actually the most suitable..."

Chen Zhongping: "(;o_o)?"

"......"

"Why are you learning this!?" Chen Zhongping was stunned, "Wait, Yingying, you wouldn't be interested in civil engineering, would you?"

Don't do this kind of thing!

Chen Zhongping absolutely doesn't want to see his daughter mixing cement!

And seeing this reaction, Chen Yuying giggled with satisfaction: "That's not it~"

"Then why did you suddenly learn this?"

"This is not important," Chen Yuying had already retreated outside the door, looking at her father with a smile: "Also, Dad, you should take care of your figure."

"It's normal to gain weight in middle age. Your dad is already very good. Those friends of mine, that's what you call out of shape." Chen Zhongping said so, but still wrapped his "deep V" bathrobe tighter.

Chen Yuying pursed her lips.

Will Lin Li gain weight too?

Chen Yuying doesn't want the muscles she saw in the photos this afternoon to disappear.

Then she will have to manage him.

The more she thinks about these things, the more she wants to see him, time to go~

"Clang."

Seeing Chen Yuying close the door without responding to him, Chen Zhongping shook his head with a smile, walked to the living room, fumbled for his clothes, and saw a pen and paper on the coffee table in the living room, so he walked over and picked them up.

And on the wide sofa, a woman with a facial mask was lying lazily at this moment.

Originally, the woman's gaze had been looking lovingly at the direction Chen Yuying left, and when her vision was blocked, her attention moved to her husband who was starting to write things down:

"Ping, what are you writing?"

"Studying, 32.5 grade cement, if you are plastering the ground, the mud-sand ratio of 1:4.5 is actually the most suitable..." His phone wasn't by his side, Chen Zhongping read while writing.

"Why are you writing this down?" The woman asked with some amusement, "Do you still need to use this?"

"This is not important." Chen Zhongping waved his hand, "Maybe. Live and learn."

It will be used, it will be used.

It's a pity that the knowledge his daughter learned is still too one-sided. Chen Zhongping thinks it would be better if there were techniques and ratios for how to make the smell of the dead person inside dissipate the latest after pouring a human pillar.

Seeing this, the woman shook her head with a smile, looked back at the direction of the street outside the building, then lay flat on the sofa, closed her eyes, and continued to apply the mask.

People often think of someone in their hearts, and there are many reasons for this.

Either because of curiosity and expectation, or because of liking and missing, or simply because they want them to die.

But, in short, Chen Yuying's family of three, at this very moment, are indeed all thinking of the same person.
