Chapter 419 Lin Li only needs to make money to support his family, Chen Yuying has a lot to consider
Chen Yuying's skill "Estrangement": Once during the card-playing phase, you can discard a card and choose two other male characters, then have one of the male characters use a [Duel] against the other male character.
Lin Li's skill "Unparalleled": A locked skill. The [Kill] you use requires two [Flash] cards to offset it; the character who [Duels] with you must play two [Kill] cards each time.
Boy's skill "Angry Eyes": Damn it! I want to give Three Kingdoms Kill a thumbs up!!!
"Win?"
Sitting on the tree trunk, Chen Yuying heard familiar footsteps approaching from afar. She turned around and saw Lin Li returning with his head held high and chest puffed out, and couldn't help but ask with a smile.
“No match at all.
When he saw me, he immediately begged for mercy, saying, "Brother, since I have parents and children to support, you can go ahead and bully them. Beating them up is easy and labor-saving, and the cost-effectiveness is very high. My only small request is that after you beat them up, you can't beat me up."
Lin Li described it vividly. Noticing the change in Chen Yuying's eyes, he smiled and continued:
"Don't look at me like that. I respect the old and love the young, so of course I didn't agree. But Bang Bang Bang gave him three punches, and he was convinced and said he would never covet you again.
"The school bully slapped me hard, but I refused to give in. We agreed to meet in the woods after school."
"After school, in the woods, the school bully slapped me three hundred times. I gave in."
I am the school bully in this story!"
"The King of Bragging." Chen Yuying smiled.
When she was with Lin Li, the smile never really seemed to leave her mouth.
"Why is the sky so dark? Because there are cows flying in the sky. Why are there cows flying in the sky? Because I am blowing on the ground."
Lin Li still smiled when he heard that, shaking his head and saying in a rhythmic manner this once very popular rhyme, which is now rarely said by anyone.
He sat back down beside Chen Yuying, supporting himself on the smooth surface of the tree stump with his hands, and leaned his body back slightly, his eyes fixed on the branches and leaves above his head that were still stubbornly intertwined to form a shade in the winter.
Of the birds that had just been frightened away, a few brave ones were now strolling leisurely on the branches, but they still kept a safe distance.
If you meet a pet that likes to get close to people and play with them later, you can use the "Duck Blood Bottle" to absorb this desire and transfer it to these wild animals - this way you can satisfy Chen Yuying's desire to feed them, and you can also act cool like the peacock did before.
While Lin Li was still working out his tricks to flirt with girls, Chen Yuying stood up, waved the camera in her hand, and said cheerfully, "Take a few photos with me."
"receive!"
The two of them rested for a long time in the open space by the stream, until time quietly slipped towards half past ten, then they set off again and continued along the rime trail.
"Ding Sihan: @Lin Li @Chen Yuying, what are you two doing now?"
In the group chat of three people and a dog, inquiries from unnecessary people popped up.
"Lin Li: Yingbao and I were laughing at someone who had just woken up and was bored sitting at home with nothing to do. So, I asked the couple who had abandoned me—my best friend and the most handsome guy I knew—what they were doing now. I felt a little envious and jealous, and felt really pitiful."
"Ding Sihan:?"
"Chen Yuying: Yes."
"Ding Sihan:????"
"Chen Yuying: What? Are you not convinced?"
"Ding Sihan: Stupid Linli, give the phone back to Yingbao."
"Chen Yuying withdrew a message."
"Chen Yuying withdrew a message."
"Chen Yuying: He sent it from my phone, that's not what I meant... "I'm sorry"
"Ding Sihan: Ahhh Yingbao~ You're still the best~ But can you please control Lin Li! Look at what he says!"
Chen Yuying: Haha, I was the one who tricked you, stupid Ding Sihan, you fell for it, what a small fry "Bear Kick"
"Qu Wanqiu: Hahahahahaha, I was born."
"Ding Sihan: Lin Li!!!"
"Ding Sihan: Just wait for me! Even after I die and become a ghost, I won't let you go!"
"Chen Yuying: You have too little hair. You can't even be Sadako after you die. Do you agree to be transferred?"
"Ding Sihan:?"
"Ding Sihan: Lin Li!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Ding Sihan: Voice 27s
Lin Li turned down the volume and clicked on it, then realized that he still hadn't turned it down low enough. Although the volume wasn't high, it was still quite aggressive.
"Ding Sihan invites you to join the group voice."
After discovering that she couldn't tell whether the person behind "Chen Yuying" was actually Chen Yuying, Ding Sihan chose to use voice magic.
"Lin Li! You bastard!!" Only Chen Yuying and Qu Wanqiu's WeChat joined the voice call. But because she knew that Lin Li and Chen Yuying were together, Ding Sihan greeted Lin Li first and then asked:
"Where's Yuying? Where's my Yingbao?"
"What's the matter?" Chen Yuying, who was next to Lin Li, raised her head when she heard the voice, naturally took her phone back from Lin Li's hand, and asked softly.
"Look at that bastard man of yours—damn! He withdrew all of them!" Ding Sihan wanted to list the numerous pieces of evidence, but when she entered the group chat, she only saw a bunch of withdrawal messages.
Lin Li: "Look, you're anxious again."
"What quick movements! You're worthy of being Lin Li." Qu Wanqiu praised generously.
However, practice has proved that Ding Sihan's memory is better than that of a fish, far longer than seven seconds. He repeated all of Lin Li's speeches to Chen Yuying, and the most excessive thing was that he even added fuel to the fire.
Chen Yuying rolled her eyes at Lin Li with amusement, then smiled and said to the phone, "My phone is next to him. I was taking pictures with my camera just now and didn't notice. I've already called him for you."
He hadn't even moved his fingers, but he said he had already hit her. Lin Li gave him a thumbs up.
She spoke so fluently and naturally. Girls are really good at lying. I have to be more careful in the future.
Don't let the squad leader really sell you to her father and then help her count the money.
"What are you doing now?" After expressing the evil thoughts in his heart, Ding Sihan returned to the topic.
"I'm walking in the woods. Do you want to take a look? I took some photos with my phone and sent a few to the group." Chen Yuying said, picking out a few photos with good lighting and composition and sending them over.
"It looks pretty good, but what's it like in practice? Is it fun? Are the photos good?"
The photo group posted by Chen Yuying consisted of landscape photos with no portraits, so Ding Sihan asked again.
"It's quite fun." Chen Yuying nodded.
Now, just recalling the little things we just did in the woods, the happiness and sweetness fill my heart. How could it not be fun?
And it will surely overflow in my heart for a long, long time in the future.
But Lin Li shook his head and disagreed:
"That's it. It was fun when we first came in around nine in the morning, but now it's almost eleven, and there are more people coming in and out. Alas, with all these extra people, it suddenly becomes boring. How come these people only disappeared for two hours? It would be nice if they could disappear for a little longer..."
Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu: "(；☉_☉)?"
At first I thought Lin Li was speaking human language, but the more I listened, the more something seemed off.
The two of them gradually became tense.
Ding Sihan laughed so loudly that the phone vibrated even through the receiver, but then he pretended to be resentful and started to report: "Yuying! Look at him! Who are these people? Let him explain clearly!"
Qu Wanqiu's voice echoed with a smile: "Cuiguo, smash his mouth!"
"Hit, hit." Chen Yuying smiled again and lied to the two of them for Lin Li.
"It hurts, it hurts—" Lin Li, who was supposed to be cooperating with Chen Yuying, was doing his best to perform. "Like the guests on a love show, anyone can choose. If you can still see that I love you..."
No one cared why Lin Li started singing for no apparent reason. To be honest, it was quite normal, and it was very Lin Li.
If Lin Li were to be the wall-facer, the Trisolarans would have cried and gone home calling for their mothers. Humans may not thank Luo Ji, but they will certainly not recognize that Lin Li is also a human being.
"Lin Li, don't be so proud. Just wait and see how redundant these redundant people can be. What do you think, Wanqiu?" Ding Sihan said sourly.
"No problem. I may not be here on the weekend. I'll come on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and you come on Friday and Saturday. We'll be together on Thursday." Qu Wanqiu immediately understood.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't do that. I'm wrong, I'm wrong." A real man should bend and yield. Lin Li slid to his knees on the spot. "Ding Ding, Jiji, don't do that. It will hurt the mother-son relationship between us."
"Can you take us out next week?"
Lin Li patted his chest and nodded: "Next time, I'll definitely do it!"
Lin Li is reliable, and the treasure is the tree that can be climbed.
The four of them chatted and laughed for a while, and Chen Yuying even thoughtfully turned on a video call so that the two people on the other end of the phone could see the scenery of the Frost Trail more intuitively.
Originally, Lin Li was supposed to hold the phone because she was tired of holding it. However, because Lin Li accidentally took pictures of their holding hands and his extremely handsome face many times, which attracted strong protests from Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu, he had to reluctantly let Chen Yuying hold the phone again.
Ding Sihan's voice suddenly paused, and when it recovered, she spoke triumphantly, "Lin Li, how did you say that long and difficult sentence just now?"
Lin Li repeated, "Yingbao and I laughed together..."
Ding Sihan: “…”
Ding Sihan never expected that Lin Li could remember every word and sing it out easily. He was indeed a poet who loved long and difficult poems.
But then Ding Sihan smiled smugly and said, "I'm sorry, you guessed wrong. Who would be bored at home alone? I'm going to log out because someone asked me to go out~"
His tone was filled with the joy of having regained a point.
"What!?" Lin Li was shocked by the emotional value. "Dingzi! You actually have a new social circle without telling us! This kind of thing is a tonic!!"
"Who is it? Classmates from junior high school or elementary school?" Qu Wanqiu asked curiously.
——Although Nansang Middle School is in Xiling, it is the No. 1 middle school in the county, so it gathers local geniuses from the sixteen towns in Nansang County. There are only a little over ten students from Xiling in Class 4, and there are even fewer girls after excluding the boys. Based on their usual relationship, Qu Wanqiu directly ruled out the students from Class 4.
Ding Sihan: "My mom called me to take out the trash."
"stare--"
The word "垃圾" is connected with a system sound.
"Ding Sihan has exited the group chat."
All I can say is that Ding Sihan's operation was appropriate. It was precisely because she withdrew cleanly and neatly that we did not hear the laughter of "two people and one", and she saved her own face (?).
Qu Wanqiu chatted with the two of them for a few more words and then ended the call.
Chen Yuying naturally handed the phone to Lin Li again. Although she also had a bag with her, she wanted to leave it with him.
"Where is your beloved Bai Bufan? Why hasn't he shown up yet?" Chen Yuying asked with a smile as she watched Lin Li put his phone neatly back into his backpack and took her hand again to walk forward.
"Him?" Lin Li shrugged. "He said goodnight to me just four hours ago. He's probably sleeping soundly right now, hugging the quilt, mumbling something, burping, and farting a little."
"Who told you to describe it like that?" Chen Yuying couldn't help laughing, covering her face with her hands and shrugging her shoulders slightly.
After strolling along the rime trail for about half an hour at a leisurely pace, the dirt trail under my feet gradually became wider and flatter, and finally connected with a flat asphalt road.
The trees moved aside, and the view suddenly became clear.
In front of you is Yuexi Lake, or rather part of Yuexi Lake.
The lake surface on a cloudy day is a tranquil gray-blue, with many wild ducks and water birds living on the water. Occasionally, a fish wags its tail, creating ripples.
It is not small in size, much larger than the park lake next to the Nansang Library. At a glance, you can vaguely see the hazy shadows of trees and the outlines of the rolling mountains on the opposite bank.
The woods blocked the entire view, but judging by sight alone, it would definitely take quite a while to walk around the lake.
Around the lake, outside the guardrail, where Lin Li and Chen Yuying are standing now, is a smooth road.
Water-resistant trees and low shrubs are planted on both sides, retaining some dark green in winter, interspersed with some yellow-brown reeds unique to the waterside, swaying slightly in the breeze.
There are neither too many nor too few tourists, and there are a variety of activities going on, including fishing, boating, cycling, walking... You can even see people flying kites.
"It's bigger than I thought." Looking at the scene in front of her, Chen Yuying nodded with satisfaction.
"People call West Lake Xiaoyuexi Lake." Lin Li praised with a smile.
"The West Lake is still much bigger." Chen Yuying looked over with a smile.
"I was just saying it casually." Lin Li shrugged. "The last time I went to West Lake was yesterday when I used paper money at the school canteen - well, I haven't been there."
"West Lake... well, it's not particularly fun,"
Because of the suspected defamation, Chen Yuying looked around as if she was worried about the people from Hangzhou around her, and then quietly gave her opinion:
"It's not worth going all the way to Hangzhou just for West Lake—unless it's raining and you want to enjoy the Jiangnan landscape. Otherwise, forget it. If you want to visit it on the way, it's fine."
Lin Li raised an eyebrow and asked in a low voice, "Where's the West Lake Vinegar Fish? Is it worth making a special trip to eat it?"
"I heard that when eating West Lake Vinegar Fish, you have to choose a window seat so that you can pretend to look at the scenery while pouring the fish into the West Lake to avoid embarrassment. Is that true?"
"Not really. I've eaten it, but it's actually not as bad as people say online. Personally, I think it's possible that I was eating the improved version?" Chen Yuying spoke a little louder this time because she was saying something nice.
"Is that so?" Lin Li also became more confident. "Then, guide, what are we going to do next? Take a boat ride? Or go feed the birds, ducks, and fish you've been longing for?"
"Idiot," Chen Yuying was amused by his appearance and patted his arm lightly, saying with a hint of pout, "Eat first, I'm hungry."
"Are you hungry?" Lin Li looked at Chen Yuying in surprise.
"Aren't you hungry?" Chen Yuying tilted her head slightly, her clear eyes looking at him with a hint of doubt, then frowned in annoyance: "Ah, I should have known not to treat you like a trash can. Did I feed you too much?"
——All the bread and other food that I bought earlier were stuffed into Lin Li’s mouth.
"No, I'm hungry." Lin Li shook his head.
It is already half past eleven. For students with regular schedules, who have walked in the woods for an hour or two in the morning, it is time to replenish energy.
"But, I just didn't expect that you would be hungry..." Lin Li whispered, and then seemed to have discovered some truth, feeling a little unwilling:
"So the saying 'beauty can't make a living' is actually true! I always thought it was a lie... I thought it was just jealousy from those less attractive people who couldn't get their hands on the sour grapes."
"hateful!"
Chen Yuying was slightly startled, then reacted, feeling somewhat embarrassed and annoyed. She bumped her forehead against Lin Li's arm and said, "You're the only one who knows how to praise others..."
"Just tell me if you like it or not. Call me a master of picking up girls!"
This was Chen Yuying's reaction that Lin Li wanted to see, and he couldn't help but rub her cheek and boasted.
"No." Chen Yuying said at the beginning.
Lin Li: "Then I'll grab it! Double it! Super double it! Show your cards! You play your cards really well! Dededededededede~"
Chen Yuying: “…”
Chen Yuying sighed.
The sweatiest episode of Trisolaran.
"So where are we going to eat?" Seeing Chen Yuying speechless, Lin Li didn't wait for her to comment on his landlord-it wasn't a good thing anyway, so he quickly got back to the point.
"Over there, the appointment has been made, we just need to go over there." Chen Yuying pointed in a direction.
Looking across the sidewalk around the lake, you can see a relatively concentrated small area where there is a row of shops and a large number of temporary stalls, which is equivalent to the commercial street of this tourist attraction.
"Okay, let's go."
Chen Yuying made a reservation at a barbecue restaurant by the lake. When she opened the door, warm air mixed with the aroma of barbecue hit her face.
Sitting side by side with Chen Yuying at the window seat, Lin Li first took off his scarf, folded it carefully and put it back in his bag, and then casually threw his coat on the empty chair opposite.
Seeing Lin Li's different treatment, Chen Yuying felt a little sweet in her heart.
"We've only made a reservation for this restaurant, but haven't placed an order yet. Let's scan the QR code to see what we want to eat." Chen Yuying said, picking up her phone.
They both scanned the QR code on the table and entered the ordering interface. They put their heads close together, discussed in low voices, and chose dishes together.
"That's it?" After selecting some dishes from each other, Lin Li glanced at the generated list and asked, "This should be enough for two people."
"That's it, order more if it's not enough." Chen Yuying nodded.
"good."
This store requires payment to be considered a real order, but when Lin Ligang placed the order, the system showed "paid".
Raising his eyebrows, Lin Li looked at Chen Yuying: "Did you pay?"
"Yeah." Chen Yuying nodded.
"Then I'll pay for dinner." Lin Li immediately stated.
"I've already paid for dinner," Chen Yuying said with a sly smile, "That restaurant has set meals. I've already ordered two. Don't worry, they're almost all your favorites."
They usually eat together for so long that Chen Yuying can even remember Bai Bufan’s dietary restrictions and preferences, let alone her boyfriend whom she pays special attention to?
Lin Li stroked his chin, looking thoughtful: "Oh no... I'm being kept..."
"I know you're rich, but I'm richer." Chen Yuying said with a smile, then reached out and poked Lin Li's cheek, teasing him affectionately, "You just need to be thick-skinned."
Lin Li blinked.
It’s hard to say who has money.
But the truth is even harder to tell.
So Lin Li just smiled gently, put down his phone, and took Chen Yuying's hand: "Okay, now you will support me."
Lin Li paused, his voice low and serious: "From now on, I will take care of you."
"I've already thought about my future plans, Yingbao," Lin Li turned sideways, looked intently into Chen Yuying's eyes, and made a promise: "From now on, you will be responsible for my laundry and cooking. Leave all the matters of making money to support the family to me."
"Okay." Lin Li was rarely so serious. Meeting his gaze, Chen Yuying nodded seriously, with a gleam of complete trust in her eyes.
She believed he could do it.
Then he became curious: "What are you going to do in the future?"
Chen Yuying really couldn't imagine what kind of career Lin Li was suitable for.
Lin Li smiled slightly and said, "Open a laundry and a restaurant."
Chen Yuying: "I didn't expect this answer, but that's good too."
“…”
Chen Yuying: "That's not right."
