Chapter 159

Back in the classroom, the teacher came over and briefly explained tomorrow’s arrangements, and then it was time to go home.

However, most students who originally didn’t plan to participate suddenly became enthusiastic, not because of any reward.

It’s because they suddenly realized that if they don’t go to the competition or watch it, they’ll have to study on their own in the classroom.

It’s better to go out for a run. The weather isn’t hot, and you might even see some beautiful female bosses.

“Ji Yun, are you coming back with me?”

Packing her bag, Zuo Yan glanced at her best friend, unsure if she had reconciled with Xu Lin or not.

“No, I’ll go back with Xu Lin.”

“To be honest, I don’t know what to say. I just don’t want you to be sad about anything. Just live happily however you want, okay?”

“Yeah, Zuo Yan, I didn’t have a fight with him. I just have too much on my mind. Anyway, you’re supposed to pick up your brother today, so go ahead.”

“Alright, if there’s anything, you must tell me! Don’t keep it bottled up. Besides, he’s your boyfriend, so say what needs to be said, even if it’s scolding.”

“He’s not my boyfriend yet.”

“Well, it doesn’t matter now. Everyone thinks you are, so that’s enough. But be careful, both of you, don’t let the teachers find out.”

“Okay.”

Ji Yun nodded, glanced at the homeroom teacher who had just left, sighed, they had noticed long ago.

Ji Yun looked towards Xu Lin, Li Bin and a few others saw Ji Yun looking over and also left on their own initiative. Xu Lin looked at Ji Yun and smiled.

“Feeling better now?”

“Being gloomy all day isn’t a solution, right?”

“Yeah, by the way, if there’s anything on your mind, you can really talk to me.”

“I don’t even know what I’m thinking, maybe I’m just too idle, or perhaps like you, finding something to do would help.”

After listening to Ms. Ye’s speech in the afternoon, Ji Yun felt slightly better, but also felt that she really needed to find something to do.

Although she didn’t dislike studying and didn’t find it too boring, she just felt that she couldn’t just study alone, she needed to truly do something she enjoyed.

“What do you want to do? I can invest in it.”

“Don’t you make your own money? Then I’ll do it on my own too.”

He also suddenly realized that although Ji Yun gives the impression of being a gentle and intelligent girl, she actually has a strong personality.

She’s not the kind of girl who would just go along with your plans, or at least that’s how he perceives the girls he knows, except for Bai Xiaoxiao.

“Class Monitor, you two stop chatting. I’ll lock up after I finish cleaning here. Talk at home~” Two students cleaning joked with them.

“Sorry, sorry, we’ve delayed your cleaning. Let’s go, let’s go, we’ll talk at home.”

Ji Yun said, then she grabbed his hand and walked out of the classroom, and he readily took Ji Yun’s backpack and slung it over his shoulder.

Ji Yun couldn’t imagine that she already had a daughter. With such a good figure, and usually wealthy people marry late.

“Well, about that, the girl was adopted by her.”

“I see. But I feel like children from wealthy families aren’t necessarily happier than those from ordinary families.”

“The happiness of wealthy people is something you can’t imagine. But they also have their worries. It’s just that in life, there’s never a smooth journey all the way.”

“That’s true.”

Ji Yun nodded. She used to believe that as long as one sticks to their true self, they will live a happy life.

But in just this past half year, she encountered many surprises, such as discovering her seemingly honest parents’ past.

Of course, most of it was because of Xu Lin. What used to be a mundane daily life suddenly became different, with many depressing and sad moments.

But at the same time, there are also more expectations, more happiness, so she feels it’s quite good now. There are troubles, but there’s also him.

Thinking of this, Ji Yun, who was originally thinking about a bunch of competitors and under a lot of pressure, suddenly felt clearer. She reached out her small hand and hooked her finger with Xu Lin’s.

Xu Lin was also taken aback, glanced sideways, and found that the girl didn’t even look at him. She just hooked her finger with his, and then gently scratched his palm.

Xu Lin also realized that Monitor Ji’s mood had improved, but you’re so bold, can I endure it?

He suddenly turned, directly grasping the other party’s hand, then interlocking his fingers with hers, palms pressing against each other.

Gently pulling her, then slowly bringing her closer, pulling her into his arms.

Ji Yun was also startled, almost jumping up like a little rabbit, but when she looked around, she found that she had been guided by Xu Lin to behind a tree, and there were no passersby around.

“What are you doing...”

“Not doing anything, just giving you a hug.”

“Don’t want it.”

“Wanna kiss then?”

“Doubling words, gross.”

Ji Yun also laughed, looking at Xu Lin’s burning eyes, and slowly leaned in to hug him.

But as soon as she wrapped her arms around Xu Lin’s waist, a car horn interrupted them.

Xu Lin glanced over, only to see a taxi parked nearby. Instantly, his scalp tingled, appearing out of nowhere, my father-in-law!

Ji Yun looked back, her face turning red, and punched him, “It’s all your fault!”

“I didn’t do anything wrong either, come on, let’s go catch a ride with my father-in-law.”

“Who’s your father-in-law, hmph!”
