Under Ma Chunmei's instructions, everyone began to work.
Lin Xun, Su Qing, and Liu Yun formed a group responsible for picking up trash around the orphanage.
Lin Xun was holding a bag and a pair of pliers he had made himself.
He glanced at Su Qing, who only had one bag, and then handed her the pliers in his hand: "Here, take this, it'll be easier for you."
Su Qing glanced at him with some surprise, then said calmly, "I'm not that delicate."
"Who knows? Girls care more about cleanliness than boys. I'll just make one myself later," Lin Xun said casually.
Out of politeness, he was still quite gentlemanly.
Before Su Qing could speak, Liu Yun, who was standing next to her, chuckled familiarly and said, "Okay, if none of you want it, I can have it."
As he spoke, he made a move to take the pliers from Lin Xun's hand.
However, Su Qing quickly took it and said, "Thank you."
Liu Yun rolled her eyes.
"Let's spread out. Each of us will be responsible for a section. But be careful, there's a lot of vegetation nearby, and snakes or something might be hiding there. Don't get bitten."
Lin Xun nodded and then walked in one direction.
There isn't much trash around here, since the staff at the welfare home sometimes organize the children to do chores, which helps to dispose of the trash in a simple way.
As he picked them up, Lin Xun took out his phone.
Of course, he wasn't slacking off; someone was making a video call to him.
When I took out my phone, I was surprised to see that it was my senior calling.
Lin Xun's face lit up with joy, and he answered the call without hesitation.
The video call connected, and Su Qingshi's stunningly beautiful face appeared on the screen as she calmly gazed at him.
"Senior, what's wrong?"
Lin Xun's eyes immediately softened as he looked at his senior.
Su Qingshi's expression softened, and she asked softly, "What are you doing?"
"I'm thinking of you," Lin Xun said with a chuckle, uttering a sweet nothing.
Su Qingshi blushed and gave him a sharp look: "Be serious."
Lin Xun smiled, then switched the camera and scanned the surroundings.
"I'm picking up trash around here at the welfare home."
After showing his senior the surrounding terrain, Lin Xun couldn't wait to switch the camera back up.
Su Qingshi looked somewhat surprised: "Was that Su Qing just now?"
It must be said that the senior student has a sharp eye; with just a glance, she spotted Su Qing, who was more than ten meters away.
Lin Xun was somewhat surprised: "Senior, you still recognize her? You two aren't that close, are you?"
Su Qingshi said calmly, "I just saw him a few days ago."
Lin Xun nodded, then said somewhat jokingly, "So, is Senior Sister jealous?"
"hehe!"
In return, he received a disdainful sneer from Su Qingshi.
"You dare to flirt with other girls?"
Lin Xun immediately admitted defeat: "I wouldn't dare, I only love my senior."
"snort!"
Su Qingshi's expression turned haughty for a moment, but she quickly regained her cool demeanor.
"When are we going back?" Su Qingshi asked.
Lin Xun shook his head: "I don't know, but we're going to visit the nursing home this afternoon, so we should be going back around five or six in the afternoon."
"be safe."
"Okay, senior!"
Lin Xun ended the call with his senior. They didn't talk much; it was just that Su Qingshi missed her junior and called specifically. Lin Xun wanted to see her, so he didn't ask why. After exchanging some trivial conversation, they ended the call.
Perhaps this is what daily life is like after falling in love.
Whenever you miss someone, just make a phone call. Once you see them in person, everything is conveyed through your eyes.
Lin Xun put away his phone, looked around, then broke off a tree branch, folded it in half, and made a simple pair of pliers.
There was no trash here, so he expanded outwards and gradually discovered packaging bags that had accumulated over many years.
Just as Lin Xun bent down to pick up a bag of spicy beef tendon strips, a commotion suddenly came from not far away.
He was so distressed that he forgot half a beat and looked up sharply. He saw the leaves of a small tree not far away shake violently, but there was no living thing on it.
Lin Xun frowned, thinking it was a squirrel or something, and didn't pay much attention, but his figure moved away from that direction.
"ah!!!"
Just then, a scream came from not far away.
Lin Xun's expression changed. He recognized Su Qing's voice and immediately ran towards her.
From a distance of more than ten meters, he saw Su Qing slumped to the ground, her pretty face deathly pale, her eyes filled with terror as she stared at the distance not far ahead.
Lin Xun quickly walked to her side and asked, "What's wrong?"
When Su Qing saw Lin Xun, a glint of light flashed in her eyes. Then she reached out and grabbed his clothes tightly, showing that she was very scared.
“There’s…there’s a snake! A really big snake!” Su Qing pointed ahead, her voice trembling.
Lin Xun looked in the direction she was pointing and just happened to see a tail, but it disappeared in an instant, obviously the snake had already run away.
Lin Xun's pupils contracted.
Judging by its tail, this snake is quite large. I wonder if it's venomous; if I were bitten, the taste would be awful...
He helped Su Qing up and glanced at her: "Are you hurt?"
Su Qing's emotions had stabilized, but she was still a little shaken. She shook her head and said, "No, it passed by me and didn't attack me."
"Sis, it passed right by you and you didn't even see it? It's so big!" Lin Xun looked at her strangely.
Su Qing blushed and lowered her head shyly, saying, "I was wrong."
She didn't know either; she was lost in thought at the time. But it's best not to tell him.
"What's going on?" Liu Yun arrived at this moment.
Lin Xun said, "We encountered a snake, and it was quite large."
Liu Yun was also somewhat surprised, but then frowned and said, "This area is all forest, so it's normal to have a lot of poisonous insects. But I'll ask Dean Cheng to sprinkle some sulfur around here."
Lin Xun nodded.
"How about this, let's not separate and pick them up together, there's not much trash."
Liu Yun suggested.
"good."
Lin Xun and Su Qing nodded.
The three of them started walking together and gradually began to chat.
"Junior, do you have a boyfriend?" Liu Yun asked Su Qing curiously.
Su Qing paused, then shook her head: "No."
Liu Yun exclaimed in surprise, "With your looks and qualities, you should have a lot of guys who like you!"
Su Qing remained silent.
She has many suitors, but she doesn't like any of them. To be precise, she doesn't have any intention of dating right now; she just wants to study and plan for the future.
and…
Su Qing glanced at Lin Xun subtly, her heart filled with complex emotions.
The only boy she ever had feelings for in her youth no longer belongs to her.
Lin Xun wasn't paying attention to what was happening here, but Liu Yun noticed Su Qing's little actions and was quite surprised.
Does this pretty female student like this handsome male student?
