Chapter 71
Going to the Hospital: Niu Chenyi?
The next day, in the morning.
The new class has officially started.
"Welcome to your new class, everyone. I am your homeroom teacher, Ai Kun."
"I'm wearing a stylish pair of overalls today, which makes me look young, but I actually have two and a half years of experience as a supervisor..."
The homeroom teacher, with his middle-part hair and handsome, boyish looks, was introducing himself and talking about class plans, future goals, and so on.
Jiang Ling lowered her head and replied to the message.
Ouyang Kexin: [How about we have lunch together at noon?]
Jiang Ling intends to refuse Ke Xin's request.
After all, noon is Yan Youyou's special rooftop kissing time.
however.
Yan Youyou: [Ah Ling~ How about we go out for lunch? I know a really good ramen place.]
Jiang Ling: ……
Yan Youyou: [It's... that ramen shop I sent you last time, their tonkotsu ramen is super delicious...]
Oh, Youyou...sigh.
Jiang Ling: [Sorry... Youyou, I have something to do at noon today and can't keep you company.]
He quickly replied to Kexin: "Okay, Kexin... I'm looking forward to your cooking."
Ouyang Kexin: [Little Cat ฅ՞••՞ฅ.JPG]
Ouyang Kexin: [Are we... together now?]
Jiang Ling: [Mm.]
Ouyang Kexin: [Then...can I see...my brother's real face?]
Jiang Ling: [I... am rather shy.]
Ouyang Kexin: [Okay... By the way, the school festival is next month, what fun activities does your class have planned?]
Ok?
Campus cultural festival?
Jiang Ling was stunned for a moment, then gasped for breath, realizing it was almost December.
Holy crap! It appeared!
The most common thing in Japanese light romance school settings—the cultural festival!
If all goes well, there will be a classic maid café, a haunted house, a takoyaki stall, a performance club, archery, and kendo competitions...
At this point, Ai Kun, the homeroom teacher on stage, also started talking about the arrangements for the cultural festival, speaking eloquently:
"Logically speaking, the cultural festival projects for each class should have been decided as early as June."
"But our class is a special case."
"Therefore, the school has decided that you can choose any class within the school to participate in their projects and earn credits for the cultural festival..."
Jiang Ling: ……
Jiang Ling: [Kexin, here's what happened...]
Ouyang Kexin: [Eh?! Well...would you like to come to our class? Our class is...a maid café, you know.]
Jiang Ling: Classic!
However, the thought of seeing Kexin's mom in a maid outfit made the little head start controlling the big head.
Jiang Ling: 【Then I shall respectfully accept your offer.】
However, news about Youyou followed one after another.
Yan Youyou: [A-Ling...have you decided which class you want to go to? I...I don't have any friends in other classes at school, so I want to go with you...]
Jiang Ling: Oh my god, that was too hasty!
A picture popped into Jiang Ling's mind—Kexin's mother and Yan Youyou holding his hands on either side.
They argued back and forth:
"My knight!"
"Pah! It should be my knight!"
"Brother A-Jiang (A-Ling), say something! What's your relationship with her?"
Then the lolis fight, Ora Ora and Muda Muda!
"It's better if that kind of thing doesn't happen," Jiang Ling sighed.
But Youyou has no other friends at school besides me.
Are we going to leave her all alone for the cultural festival?
This is not true love at all!
Jiang Ling couldn't bear it, but thought helplessly, "Fine, I'll just agree for now..."
"When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it."
"If we can't come up with a solution within 30 days, we might as well just explode."
Jiang Ling: [Okay, let's come to the cultural festival together!]
……
At noon, in the grove pavilion.
"Um... Brother A-Jiang~ You're here." Ouyang Kexin was waiting at the usual spot.
A super luxurious bento box was placed on the stone table, emitting a fragrant aroma.
However, to Jiang Ling's surprise...
Another person was sitting on a stone bench, eating a bento box of dry rice with gusto, his little cheeks bulging as he ate.
For no apparent reason, Jiang Ling was reminded of the night a few days ago.
The scene of her cheeks puffing out like a pea shooter's!
"Burp~" Li Meiyu let out a burp, put down the lunchbox, got up and left, waving to Kexin and saying:
"Ghana, Kexin~ hiccup~ I won't disturb your happy life anymore~"
Ouyang Kexin blushed and lowered her head, "Bye-bye..."
After Miyu left, the atmosphere became somewhat silent for a moment.
After all, Jiang Ling is occasionally proactive, but prefers to be passive. Similarly, Ke Xin's mother is not the kind of girl who likes to take the initiative.
Jiang Ling: ⊙▽⊙
Ouyang Kexin: (◦˙▽˙◦)
"It's...delicious!"
"Hao Chi".
After two meaningless sentences, there was another period of silent chewing.
Just as Ouyang Kexin was looking down, thinking about what topic to talk about with her boyfriend.
【♫Baby, our relationship is like Hakimi's~♫】
The cell phone rang.
Ouyang Kexin took out her bunny-shaped phone and found that it was her mother calling.
So, the call was connected, hands-free.
[Feed?]
【Kexin~ You don't have class this afternoon~】
Yes, Mom.
Should we go to the hospital to see Chen Yi? He's been hospitalized for some reason, and I heard... he's paralyzed.
Upon hearing the name Chen Yi, Kexin pursed her lips in slight disgust.
"Mom, I don't want to go..."
After a moment of silence, Yuan Meizi's gentle yet somewhat weary voice came through:
Okay, then study hard at school!

Holy crap, it's multiple choice?!
The dog system has finally become intelligent!
System Mommy, listen to me, thank you. Because of you, the four seasons are warm...
Jiang Ling sincerely praised the great kindness and virtue of the Tongzi in her heart.
I hope there will be more multi-option tasks in the future.
System Girl: [...]
"Wait a minute, Kexin!"
Jiang Ling shouted, stopping Kexin who was about to hang up the phone.
"Eh." Kexin paused, tilting her head slightly.
Jiang Ling leaned close to her ear and whispered:
"I'll go to the hospital with you, so please don't refuse!"
"Eh..." Ouyang Kexin asked in confusion, "Why?"
"He did such terrible things before, we can't just let it go like this."
"I'm planning to teach him a lesson and get revenge for you. What do you think?"
Ouyang Kexin's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but gently nod her head against his chest:
"Okay then... I'll do whatever you say."
At that moment, Yuan Meizi's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone:
[Kexin, I hear a boy's voice next to you?]
Ouyang Kexin didn't know what to say for a moment, so she just gave a soft "hmm".
"Auntie, I'm Kexin's boyfriend," Jiang Ling said loudly.
A good man will respond when his girlfriend's family asks, "What is your relationship?"
Take the initiative to stand up for your girlfriend and give her a sense of security.
Say it, she's my mom... cough cough, say it, I'm her boyfriend!
Yuan Meizi was surprised and said, "Hello, hello... Kexin has a boyfriend? I didn't know that."
Jiang Ling: [We've been together for a long time, Auntie. She didn't tell you because she was worried you wouldn't allow her to date, but I promise I'll love her forever...]
The words "I will love her for a lifetime" flew into Kexin's mother's ears.
Like a depth charge, it left her head buzzing.
【I...I'll love you forever too! Waaah...Brother Jiang~ I'll definitely be a good, obedient wife...】
Kexin's mother has already started imagining what names they would give their son and daughter...
I never expected my daughter's boyfriend to be so manly!
Yuan Meizi smiled and said, "Well... Kexin, after you visit Xiaoyi, bring your boyfriend home for dinner tonight!"
Ouyang Kexin covered her blushing face, "Mom...I...I understand."
Beep beep beep — The phone call ended.
