"Hmm, it seems... we can chew gum now too..."
Chewing gum? What the heck? Wasn't our agreed-upon code to work overtime and "study"?
Chen Bing was an extremely intelligent and quick-witted person. After a brief moment of confusion, he immediately understood what Shang Yunmiao meant.
"Oh~ chewing gum!" The boy had a sly look on his face. It was an unhealthy expression, but for some reason, it gave people a cheerful and youthful vibe.
While staring at Shang Yunmiao's rosy cheeks, Chen Bing took out a treasured pack of chewing gum from her desk drawer and, mimicking a short video she had seen in her past life, asked, "Strawberry, mint, lemon, cantaloupe, which flavor do you like?"
"I want to eat strawberries."
"Okay, okay." Chen Bing generously pulled out two sticks, then popped them into her mouth with a snap, and leaned down to peck at that cute little mouth.
However, to his surprise, Shang Yunmiao actually put her two little hands in front of her mouth, making a gesture of refusal.
"I'm serious about chewing gum... I'm afraid my breath will smell bad."
"It's okay, I don't mind. Shall we kiss first? It'll be very late by the time you finish chewing your gum."
"No, I want to eat first."
All right……
Although he was impatient, Chen Bing obediently took out two more pieces of chewing gum and fed them to Shang Yunmiao with his hands, pinching her cheek as compensation for making him wait. He had initially thought she wanted the gum so he would feed it to her with kisses, and he was secretly pleased, thinking that the naive Shang Yunmiao was starting to understand romance. But it turned out she really wanted it.
By the way, did Xiao Shang care so much about her personal hygiene before getting married?
Just as Chen Bing was pondering and her attention was not focused, a soft little mouth suddenly attacked without warning.
It wasn't until Chen Bing realized what was happening that he discovered Shang Yunmiao had abandoned all martial ethics and ambushed him, an older comrade. "Young man, no martial ethics! Come on, a sneak attack!"
You just said you were going to chew your gum properly, but you lied to me, didn't you?
Being ambushed by Shang Yunmiao, whom he had always looked down upon, was not the worst part. The worst part was that Chen Bing discovered that Shang Yunmiao, that greedy devil, was trying to steal his food even though he already had two pieces of chewing gum in his mouth.
How could we let her succeed? Master Chen was determined to make this shameless thief lose everything in her attempt to steal a chicken!
So he immediately launched a righteous counterattack, defending against the enemy while trying to steal her chewing gum.
Chen Bing, who didn't take Shang Yunmiao seriously, thought this would be a simple matter, but she didn't expect that the enemy, who looked weak, was actually quite strong in combat.
After much back and forth, the chewing gum had become tangled together, and they had exchanged mouthfuls more than ten times, but Chen Bing still couldn't achieve a decisive victory. In the end, Chen Bing couldn't even distinguish whether what she was chewing on her tongue was actually chewing gum or not. However, it wasn't entirely fruitless; Chen Bing felt her mouth was filled with the refreshing scent of strawberries, clean and crisp, with a continuous, sweet taste.
"Hmm..."
This battle for chewing gum, triggered by Xiao Shang's shameless sneak attack, ended after an unknown amount of time with all the chewing gum ending up in Chen Bing's mouth and Shang Yunmiao surrendering with "mmm".
As soon as they separated, the victor Chen Bing couldn't help but boast, "How about that? I'm awesome, right?"
Xiao Shang was initially embarrassed and hesitant to answer, but somehow, she inexplicably chimed in, "General, your talent and strategy are truly admirable."
Hearing this, Chen Bing was even happier. While chewing on his prize, he put his hands on Shang Yunmiao's head and petite back, and then gently pulled her soft body into his arms.
How heartwarming! Little Shang looks so comfortable to hold; it seems he's gained a little weight recently.
After adjusting her posture, Shang Yunmiao found the most comfortable angle, then looked up and pleaded, "Can I have some of my chewing gum?"
In traditional Chinese culture, repaying evil with kindness is often considered the noblest course of action. Although there is a follow-up question, "How can I repay kindness?", that is not important. What is important is that Chen Bing was a powerful ruler who possessed this noble character.
He lowered his head and generously gave Shang Yunmiao half of his chewing gum.
As she was about to accept the enemy's favor, Shang Yunmiao thought Chen Bingren was so kind and generous. But it wasn't until she put the chewing gum in her mouth that she realized why the other party was so generous.
"Hmm... I've been eating for too long, it's lost all its flavor."
"How dare you! I'm already being lenient by giving it back to you, yet you still dare to be picky!" The once mighty ruler Chen Bing was furious, and this kind of anger could be understood by simply putting oneself in another's shoes.
As the monarch of a country, you grant away your territory at someone's request, but instead of being grateful, they turn around and try to seize the rest of your land.
After you have gone through countless hardships and finally defeated the rebels and reclaimed what was rightfully yours, in order to show your magnanimity and forgiveness, you return all the land you occupied to them.
I thought my kindness would be remembered, but I never expected that this shameless scoundrel would blame me for mining some resources during the occupation the moment he took back the land.
With this in mind, Chen Bing's anger was understandable. He was determined to take back the spoils he had just bestowed and to get revenge on this fickle and treacherous person.
But before he could take any action, the other party offered, "Why don't you try it yourself? It has no taste at all."
Suppressing his indignation, Emperor Chen Jiao took the half-piece of chewing gum with his mouth, then rolled it with his tongue and put it in his mouth to taste it.
Hmm... the taste is quite mild, but it's not completely tasteless, is it? There's even a hint of sweetness, isn't there? How can you say it has no taste? You little rascal, you're such a spendthrift!
To set a good example, the hardworking and thrifty Chen Bing decided that he would eat all this chewing gum until tomorrow, and he wouldn't throw it up.
So, stubbornly insisting, "It's still very sweet, and it'll be fine to eat it until tomorrow."
Xiao Shang was speechless for a moment, then immediately decided to ignore Chen Bing. She leaned down again, comfortably enjoying the boy's embrace and savoring this precious, brief moment of intimacy after school.
short?
Realizing something was amiss, Shang Yunmiao suddenly looked up and asked Encyclopedia-like Chen Bing, "How long does it take for chewing gum to lose its flavor?"
