77 -77: Lin Yuqing’s Visit
Hearing this, Su Ran slanted a glance at Uncle Li.
Uncle Li, are you truly clueless or faking it?
Do I really need to reveal all your secrets?
Can we still play happily together?
“Uncle Li, this skill book can only be traded in the ‘Divine/Demonic Strife’ online game,” Su Ran explained smoothly.
Afterward, Su Ran took a pen and paper, wrote down the coordinates for collection, and handed them to Uncle Li.
“Uncle Li, once you reach these coordinates, call out in the public announcement, and I’ll immediately send it to you,” Su Ran explained gently.
Uncle Li pretended to glance at it and nodded: “Su Boy, put it on the table!
I’ll come for it tonight.”
Su Ran bid Uncle Li goodbye and returned to his home.
“Little Black, how do feel?
From now on, your master will accompany you every day.
When you’ve recovered well enough, I’ll take you out to play,” Su Ran said, looking at Little Black, whose thighs were thoroughly bandaged.
“Meow” “Meow”
Little Black raised a forelimb, as if wanting to crawl onto Su Ran’s lap.
Su Ran patted Little Black’s forehead gently and said: “Didn’t we agree?
Once you’re completely healed, I’ll take you to play, so concentrate on recovering.”
The kitten’s eyes were as pure as water, containing not a hint of impurity.
Even if it were run over by a car, it would not hold a grudge against humans.
If you were kind to it, it would treat you as family.
It knew nothing of betrayal or how to cause harm.
“Little Ran, it’s mealtime!” Su’s mother called loudly.
As soon as Su Ran had walked out, there came a gentle knock at the door.
“Little Ran, answer the door, see who’s here!” His mother was still busy serving food and couldn’t tear herself away.
Su Ran walked over to open the door, only to gasp in surprise.
The visitor was his desk mate, Lin Yuqing.
Lin Yuqing looked a little timid at first, but when she saw that it was Su Ran who had opened the door, she relaxed, gave a sweet smile, and said, “Dumbo, are you going to stand there and not let me in?
Here, take this!”
Surprisingly, Lin Yuqing had brought back the books he had left at school.
She handed him the bag and stepped into the Su Family’s home.
“Oh!” Su Ran was slow to react.
By the time he did, Lin Yuqing had already encountered Su Ran’s mother.
His mind went blank as he thought: Good heavens, Lin Yuqing, please don’t give me away!
“Auntie, hello.
I’m Su Ran’s classmate, he left his books in the classroom, so I brought them back for him,” Lin Yuqing stumbled nervously, her round face blushing.
For some reason, she felt like a daughter-in-law meeting her in-laws.
Su Ran’s mother was momentarily taken aback before breaking into a big smile.
She clutched Lin Yuqing’s hand and said excitedly, “Isn’t it Yuqing?
Little Ran often mentions you at home.
He’s lucky to have someone like you looking after him at school.
Come on, we just finished making dinner.
Join us, don’t worry about it being unpalatable!”
Su Ran was instantly frazzled.
He swore he had never mentioned Lin Yuqing to his mother.
The only reason his mother knew Lin Yuqing was because Yuqing, along with some classmates, had paid him a visit when he was bedridden with a severe illness.
“Of course not.
Auntie, your cooking is fantastic!
I always eat…” A sudden embarrassment flushed her face and Lin Yuqing clamped her mouth shut, lowered her head, and silently sat at the dining table.
Su Ran’s pupils shrunk momentarily.
“Come on, child, once you’re here, you’re our guest.
We’re just serving home-cooked meals, nothing fancy.
Don’t be shy, dig in!” Su’s mother sat next to Lin Yuqing cheerfully and said to Su Ran, “You naughty boy, go wash your hands before eating!
And what a memory you have, letting a girl bring your bag all the way here!”
“It’s okay, Auntie,” Lin Yuqing nodded awkwardly, her ponytail swinging behind her.
“Su Ran is not well.
It’s only right for me to help him.”
And she slipped up again!
Lin Yuqing’s cheeks turned a fiery red.
Su Ran was completely speechless.
What does she mean by ‘it’s only right’?
And who is Lin Yuqing blushing so hard for?
Didn’t she know there’s such a saying as ‘protesting too much’?
My God…
He
After washing his hands, Su Ran sat down in silence, picked up his chopsticks, and started to eat his meal energetically, using his frustration as motivation.
His mother’s eyes, though, were getting brighter and brighter.
“Little Jing, consider this your own home, come over often!” Su’s mother again grasped Lin Yuqing’s hand and suddenly asked, “Did this boy cause trouble at school?
Why wouldn’t the teacher let him go to school?”
Su Ran felt embarrassed.
Could his mom be more skillful at engaging people?
She already changed from addressing Yu Jing to Little Jing in a few sentences.
But hearing the latter part, Su Ran fell silent.
Sure enough, his excuse was weak, and his mother wasn’t completely convinced.
Well, whatever Lin Yuqing wanted to say, hopefully, it would persuade his mother.
“Su Ran’s performance in school is top-notch, but due to his unideal health condition, the principal gave a suggestion during his rounds today, advising Su Ran to rest at home and recover his health, to ensure a high ranking during the college entrance exams!” Lin Yuqing glanced at Su Ran, who was eating his meal, her face beaming with pride.
“Auntie, Su Ran’s college entrance exam spot has already been secured in advance, so please rest assured!”
Su Ran was stunned.
Good lord, wasn’t that exactly the same as his own version?!
Su Ran gave Lin Yuqing a mental thumbs-up in his heart, and then hoped, were these the legendary telepathic bonds?
The doubts of Su’s mother instantly vanished.
Lunchtime passed quickly, and it was only when Lin Yuqing had to mention going back to school that Su’s mother finally let go.
Su Ran, under the pretext of seeing Lin Yuqing off, left the Su house.
“Phew ~ Soda Su, your mother is too enthusiastic!” Lin Yuqing stuck out her tongue and laughed, “I almost couldn’t take it anymore!”
“That’s just the way my mom is, don’t mind her.” As Su Ran walked with Lin Yuqing, he suddenly asked, “Your mother’s last name is Han, right?”
“Yeah, why do you ask?” Lin Yuqing didn’t understand right away.
“Thank you.” Su Ran stopped, turned to face Lin Yuqing, and said seriously.
“Ah!
Soda Su, you’re horrible!” Only then did Lin Yuqing realize that her little secret had been revealed for all to know.
“Will you be upset if I ask Auntie to do housekeeping at my place?” Lin Yuqing carefully watched Su Ran’s changing expressions.
“Pshh~ Housekeeper is just a housekeeper, why bother sugarcoating it.” Su Ran grinned in a carefree manner, “Yu Jing, thank you.
There’s no such thing as high or low in jobs, don’t be bothered.
My mom’s mood has improved a lot since she started working at your house.”
“That’s good, that’s good!” Something occurred to Lin Yuqing and she suddenly laughed, “You dummy Soda Su, I almost slipped up once, and you still didn’t guess!”
Su Ran was puzzled, and then he remembered the words Lin Yuqing had said that day: “Anyway, you eat alone at home at noon, Auntie is not at home…”
Look at my silly brain!
Su Ran smiled bitterly: “I really didn’t react at that time, I didn’t think about it that way.”
Lin Yuqing’s eyes squinted, and after tapping on Su Ran’s forehead, she smiled and said, “Were you just looking at the school beauty Siying then?”
“Don’t bring her up.” Su Ran frowned and changed the subject, “When do you turn 18?”
“Why?” Lin Yuqing was taken aback, could it be that Su Ran wanted to wait until she was of age to pursue her?
“You can join the game ‘Battle of Gods and Demons’ when you’re 18!” Seeing her stunned look, Su Ran knew she was thinking in the wrong direction.
“Oh, oh,” Lin Yuqing hurriedly replied, “My birthday is at the end of this year.
I’ll look for you then.”
“Mhm.”
