The clay figures smelled bad, and many people at the train station avoided them.
But Bai Yejin didn't care. When she saw the two clay figures kneeling down in front of her and Lin Yifeng, she quickly went forward to help them up.
The two clay figures knelt on the ground and first kowtowed to Lin Yifeng. Then one of the clay figures raised its head, ignoring Bai Yejin who was helping it up, and stared intently at Lin Yifeng without saying a word.
Lin Yifeng, wearing sunglasses, stood with his hands in his pockets, quietly watching the two mud figures without saying a word.
"Get up, get up quickly!"
Bai Yejin, whose body was smeared by the mud figures, tried to help them up, but the two mud figures were very stubborn and refused to get up no matter how Bai Yejin tried to help them.
"Lin Yifeng, what do we do now!"
Having run out of options, Bai Yejin turned her gaze to Lin Yifeng. Finding that Lin Yifeng did not respond, she stood up and went back behind him.
She had never experienced this before.
She can't handle this kind of thing.
So all she can do now is shut up and listen to Lin Yifeng.
The gentle sunlight shone on the four of them at the same time, creating completely different worlds.
Lin Yifeng and Bai Yejin basked in the sunlight; their future was as bright and vast as the blazing sun.
The two clay figures, however, seemed to be in darkness, with the sunlight right in front of them, yet they could not touch it.
A bizarre scene unfolded at the train station, prompting many passersby to detour around it and cast strange glances at it.
Lin Yifeng, with his hands in his pockets and an expressionless demeanor, walked past the two clay figures. Bai Yejin opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing and followed Lin Yifeng.
The two clay figures moved quickly and knelt down in front of Lin Yifeng again.
Lin Yifeng remained silent, continuing to run away with a calm expression, while the two mud figures followed, kneeling again.
After repeating this three times, Lin Yifeng finally spoke: "Get up."
The sunlight instantly dispelled the darkness and shone on the two clay figures.
Upon hearing Lin Yifeng's words, one of the clay figures did not immediately stand up, but instead kowtowed nine times.
Blood seeped from the clay figure's forehead, a sight that Bai Yejin found unbearable. Another clay figure, seeing this, was about to imitate it when Lin Yifeng stopped him.
“Since your brother kowtowed and acknowledged you as his master, you don’t need to kowtow anymore.”
A hint of panic flashed across the clay figure's face. She quickly looked at her brother, only to find him calmly standing up from the ground.
Perhaps because he had been kneeling for too long, the male clay figure who stood up suddenly staggered a few steps. After regaining his balance, he quickly helped his sister up.
"Wash your hands."
Lin Yifeng took out a mineral water bottle. He waited a few seconds and found that Bai Yejin behind him was staring blankly at the mud-figure siblings.
The mud-figure siblings didn't move, nor did Bai Yejin. Lin Yifeng could only helplessly call out her full name: "Bai Yejin, come and wash your hands."
"ah?"
"They're calling me!"
Bai Yejin stepped forward, bewildered. She looked at the mineral water bottle and wondered if it was too wasteful, but she swallowed the words back.
She's not stupid; she understands that she needs to be obedient, talk less and do more!
Students protected by the ivory tower are far less adept at reading people than their peers who are struggling in society... Lin Yifeng did not look down on Bai Yejin.
No one is born knowing everything; his understanding of these things is something he honed through experience in society in his previous life.
The mineral water flowed gurglingly, washing the mud off Bai Yejin's hands completely.
Lin Yifeng tossed the mineral water bottle to Bai Yejin, put his hands in his pockets, and hummed a little tune as he walked toward the woman who had just spoken to him.
"Boss, need a place to stay? I have a girl!"
"Boss, we have some pretty girls, wanna go have some fun?"
It was an unoriginal way of attracting customers, but this time Lin Yifeng stopped.
"lead the way."
"Boss, you, both of you?"
"I like this style, any objections?"
Lin Yifeng glared at the woman soliciting customers, who quickly waved her hand and smiled obsequiously.
"No objection, no objection, but boss, if it's just the two of you, my sister might not feel comfortable."
"Add more money."
"Boss, you're so generous! Please come with me!"
Bai Yejin, who was half a step away from Lin Yifeng, blushed. When she saw the woman leading the way, she quickly tugged at Lin Yifeng's sleeve.
"Don't worry, I promised you!"
Lin Yifeng tapped Bai Yejin on the head, and her braids began to sway happily.
...
The hotel where I stayed was dilapidated and small, with only a hard wooden bed inside.
But the atmosphere inside was nice.
Pink curtains blocked out all the light, and a pink and green disco ball rotated at the top, making the room look like a ballroom.
The accommodation costs 5 yuan, and my sister's costs 50 yuan.
Five black teams get an extra 50.
When the scantily clad but youthful-looking younger sister entered the room, she was stunned upon seeing the four people inside.
Are you familiar with the area around the train station?
"Familiar, familiar with".
The younger sister, who had never seen anything like this before, stammered her answer. Lin Yifeng took out 50 yuan from his pocket and handed it to her.
"Go buy two sets of clothes they can wear, including underwear, 10 steamed buns, a bowl of pickled vegetables, two pairs of chopsticks, a bath towel, two hand towels, and a box of matches."
"The remaining money can be used as your errand fee."
"Thank you, thank you, boss!"
The younger sister, relieved, took the money and ran happily out of the room.
Bai Yejin, who kept telling herself to shut up, couldn't help but speak up when she saw Lin Yifeng wasting his time:
"Lin Yifeng, let me go! What if she runs away and never comes back after giving her so much money?"
