Chapter 442

Chen Tianming, unable to bear it any longer, twitched the corner of his mouth and said expressionlessly, "Are you two sick?"

Although almost all buddies have played this pun, Chen Tianming understood and accepted it.

However, however—

Chen Tianming: "When saying this kind of bullshit in public, can you keep your voice down? I'm kneeling and begging you, okay?"

"Although I don't care about other people's gazes besides Qiaoqiao's, Qiaoqiao might care about other people's gazes toward me."

The three of them gathered on the first floor, which was quite conspicuous.

They were all definitely not short; Lin Li looked like a handsome guy, Chen Tianming was also a guy, and although Bai Bufan wasn't on a leash, you could tell he had a good personality and wouldn't bite people randomly. The overall picture could be considered pleasing to the eye—provided you really couldn't hear what the three brothers were saying.

With this foundation, no matter if they were students from the school or not, people passing by would basically cast a few glances. It was only natural for Chen Tianming to be worried.

Of course, occasionally there were a few boys who appeared on the landing between the first and second floors, and upon seeing Lin Li, their faces turned pale instantly.

And they resolutely turned around, choosing to go back to the second floor against the flow of people.

For the sake of one person, they were willing to go against the trend of the world; that could also be considered a tribute to pure love.

Hearing Chen's method, Bai Bufan and Lin Li burst into laughter.

As for whether they were laughing at their scheme being discovered or at Tianming's delusional remarks about Qiaoqiao, it was hard to say.

"Stop laughing, damn it. Anyway, I knew a lot during this exam," laughter is contagious, and Chen Tianming was led to laugh as well, his mood becoming cheerful again:

"I don't know how others feel after the exam. If everyone thinks it's very difficult, I feel like my chances of participating in the semi-finals are very high.

I hope Qiaoqiao can also advance. Sigh, if only she had a mobile phone, I would have shared the noon questions with her. But her grades are better than mine anyway, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

When I go to Pingjiang with her, and wait for the sightseeing part mentioned by the school, maybe the feelings could..."

Now is fantasy time.

"Shall we go?" Bai Bufan ignored Chen Tianming's fantasy and signaled to Lin Li.

"Wait a second, waiting for the class monitor." Lin Li shook his head.

"Waiting for the class monitor?" Bai Bufan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, his gaze subconsciously looking toward the stairs: "Didn't you say she went home for lunch? Why are we eating with her later?"

"No, she's still going home," Lin Li shook his head, "Anyway, waiting for Tianming is also a matter of convenience. Sending her to the gate, I can also help her clear the way."

"Tsk tsk, you really dote on her dad." Bai Bufan shook his head with a smile, but he didn't have any objections.

Even if they ate together, it didn't matter; Bai Bufan wasn't a jealous woman.

Chen Tianming, who was envisioning a beautiful future, was stunned upon hearing this.

"Lin Li, is the class monitor's exam room closer to the left side of the teaching building or the right side?" He narrowed his eyes and asked Lin Li.

Lin Li admired Chen Tianming's intelligence and nodded: "The right side."

Chen Tianming's smile faded a little: "Is my exam room closer to the left side or the right side?"

Lin Li: "The left side."

Chen Tianming said expressionlessly: "Is the school gate closer from the left side or the right side?"

Lin Li: "The left side."

Chen Tianming stopped smiling completely: "Then why is the meeting place we agreed on, which is where we are now, on the first floor on the right side? You made me take a detour to come here."

Lin Li smiled gently: "Tianming, don't worry about that."

"You motherfucker! What do you mean by waiting for me while waiting for the class monitor! The person who was waiting for convenience was clearly me!" Chen Tianming roared.

"Che—" Lin Li curled his lips, actually failing to fool him again.

"What kind of expression is that!! What are you unhappy about!"

Watching the scene that seemed to have happened in front of him not long ago, Bai Bufan nodded with gratification.

Lin Li's beastliness was indeed AOEing every buddy, never favoring one over the other.

"I'm here." Chen Yuying appeared at this time. Although she had to go home later, she was wearing a school uniform and couldn't water down a description of her clothing.

However, it was already very outstanding. After all, she had asked a tailor to adjust her school uniform after buying it, making it more form-fitting and comfortable, and naturally better looking.

"Kept you waiting, right? Sorry~" Standing beside Lin Li, Chen Yuying apologized playfully, although there wasn't much real apology in her voice.

Theoretically, Chen Yuying should have been able to arrive here faster than Chen Tianming, after all, her exam room was closer to here.

It's just that Chen Yuying really didn't like the crowded crowd, so she waited until the crowd wasn't so dense before coming downstairs, which is why she only appeared now.

"Smiling quite happily, did you do well?" Lin Li also ignored this apology directly and asked with a smile, raising his chin.

"It was okay," Chen Yuying nodded, "But there were a few questions where the numbers calculated at the end were very strange, and I don't know if they were right."

"Check them?"

"Sure."

Everyone had arrived. While the four of them were talking, they walked toward the gate.

They checked the answers to the key difficult questions on the test paper. Chen Yuying got one or two questions wrong, and Chen Tianming got one or two questions right. Both of them were quite satisfied with this result.

Arriving at the gate.

Chen Zhongping's smile faded a little when he saw his daughter walking out side-by-side with her classmates, and it became expressionless when he discovered that the person next to his daughter was Lin Li, the pillar of the country he had designated in his heart.

As a pillar of the country on whom he pinned high hopes, how could his mind be wasted on the love of children?

It was really disappointing!

Hu—

Fortunately, he had little to do today and could pick up Yingying to go home for dinner.

Otherwise, he would have almost let Lin Li go down a wrong path.

And the four of them also noticed Zhongdeng, so they slightly adjusted their direction of travel.

"Dad~" Walking closer, Chen Yuying waved with a smile.

"Hmm." Chen Zhongping nodded gently.

"Hello, Uncle." Lin Li, Bai Bufan, and Chen Tianming also followed closely, politely greeting Zhongdeng.

Hearing this, Chen Zhongping's gaze moved from Lin Li to Bai Bufan, and from Bai Bufan to Chen Tianming, then he nodded toward Chen Tianming:

"Hello."

Lin Li, Bai Bufan: "......"

Are we not human!

Are we really not human!

Not even willing to add a "plural" to the greeting to let us have a sense of participation, Zhongdeng!

Lin Li didn't even dare to think about what a heavy blow it would be to him if he met Zhongdeng on the road with Wang Yuezhi in the future, and Zhongdeng only greeted Wang Yuezhi.

Seeming to notice the anger of the people around him who dared not speak, Chen Yuying chuckled, glared at her father, and complained: "Dad!"

Chen Zhongping then curled his lips: "Oh, so Lin Li and Bufan, you two are here too. Hello to you two as well."

Lin Li, Bai Bufan: "......"

That's very good.

Bai Bufan lowered his voice and asked Lin Li: "Uncle's lip curling, is it the same as when you treated me and Tianming before?"

Lin Li nodded with a slight arc and also lowered his voice: "If nothing goes wrong, what he is thinking now is 'Che, actually didn't fool him'."

Chen Tianming smiled: Damn, isolated, but this can't be blamed on me, what secret words are you two saying, let me listen too.

"Are you guys going out to eat?"

Chen Zhongping finally had to show the decency of an elder and couldn't just take Chen Yuying away, so he asked.

Bai Bufan and Chen Tianming were just about to nod, but Lin Li took a small step forward and shook his head with a smile:

"No, Uncle, they are going to my house with me. We are planning to take a taxi, but there are too many people now, and we found we couldn't get a taxi. We don't know what to do, sigh."

Chen Zhongping: "(゜▽゜)?"

The corner of Chen Zhongping's mouth, which had just risen slightly, froze again at this moment.

Why not play according to the routine?

Shouldn't you answer "Yes, Uncle, we are going to eat," and then he would follow up with "Good, you guys eat well, Yingying and I are also going home to eat," finally reaching the perfect ending of "Good, Uncle, goodbye Uncle" and "Hmm"?

Not eating is fine, but what does it mean for Lin Li to say he can't get a taxi now and look at him eagerly?

This kid is clearly hinting for him to give the three of them a ride, right!?

Lin Li: "Sigh, what to do if we can't get a taxi? At this time, if there was a parent we knew who was willing to give us a ride, that would be really great. It's a pity we can't find one..."

Chen Zhongping: "......"

Sorry, just now saying it was a hint was his own superficiality.

This is clearly a blatant suggestion.

However, seeing Chen Yuying beside him who couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, and the strange expressions of Bai Bufan and Chen Tianming, Chen Zhongping realized that the facts might not be like this.

So his gaze moved to Bai Bufan and Chen Tianming, and he said slowly: "Is that so?"

Bai Bufan and Chen Tianming nodded expressionlessly: "Yes."
