Chapter 209

At breakfast time, because of his injury, Xu Lin decided not to go for a run today and planned to make breakfast for his parents.

“You’re being unusually diligent today,” Li Yuan remarked as she emerged from the bathroom, while Xu Feng came out of the bedroom, already sipping tea.

“I’m biking to school today instead of running, so I have a bit more time. What would you like to eat?”

“Anything you make is fine. What about you, Lao Xu?”

“I’m not picky. I’ll just follow whatever Ji Yun eats,” Xu Feng replied.

“I’ll eat whatever Xu Lin makes,” Ji Yun chimed sweetly from the bathroom.Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates

Li Yuan joined Xu Lin’s side, grabbing his arm and leading him towards the kitchen.

“What’s with you? Are you starving?” she asked sharply.

“...,” Xu Lin hesitated under his mother’s stern gaze.

“Are you trying to give me a grandchild?”

“Where did you get such a wild idea? Nothing happened between Ji Yun and me. I got injured, and she helped me clean my back since I couldn’t do it myself.”

“You’re injured? Where? Let me see.”

Li Yuan instantly forgot about the grandchild idea and focused on worrying about Xu Lin’s injury.

Xu Lin felt touched by his mother’s concern. To reassure her, he lifted his shirt to reveal the bandaged area.

“It’s just a small wound, very shallow.”

Li Yuan examined the wound closely and, seeing the professional dressing, relaxed slightly but her expression turned more serious.

“How did this happen? Weren’t you supposed to have dinner at your teacher’s place? How did it end up like this!?”

“I intervened when I saw a thief. I didn’t expect him to have a knife, so...”

“Why are you so kind-hearted? Even if you are, you need to know if you can handle it. You could have called the police. Really!”

“Fortunately, it’s a minor injury. If it were serious, your Dad and I would have a hard time!”

“Yes, yes. Next time, I’ll definitely call the police first, only in very safe situations will I intervene.”

“There’s going to be a next time?”

“Mom, sometimes opportunities arise right in front of us. How can we just stand by and do nothing?”

“You should be as honest as your dad. Doing good deeds is fine, but safety must come first.”

“Understood.”

Xu Lin nodded. His parents’ greatest concern was always their child. No matter what ideals of justice and kindness he held, his parents only knew one thing: their child must not get hurt.

“Let me cook then.”

“It’s okay, the pain’s gone, just a little scratch. I’ll do it.”

“Okay, just don’t make anything spicy.”

“It’s early morning, I can’t make anything spicy now. I’ll just make some ham and egg pancakes.”

“It’s okay, you can in a few years.”

Li Yuan also smiled and squinted her eyes, and this time Ji Yun was not shy, but nodded.

Li Yuan suddenly felt a little happy, feeling that her son had made a definite choice. Then she heard Ji Yun say.

“But Auntie, I can’t afford this bun, it’s not up to me to decide.”

“He can’t say it’s not okay, he can’t be so rude.”

After Li Yuan finished speaking, she glared at Xu Lin, who was completely unaware of the conversation between the two just now.

“What are you talking about?”

“Why are you playing with your phone while eating?”

“It’s not, I’m working and making money.”

“Put it down.”

“Okay.”

After eating, his Mom and Dad took over the bowls and chopsticks, letting him and Ji Yun get ready for school, so they didn’t have to worry about the bowls.

The door was knocked on, Ji Yun went to open the door, Chu Fengyi and Chu Qingchan came in wearing sportswear.

“Sister Ji Yun, why did you come here so early today? No wonder no one answered when I knocked on your door and no one answered my call~”

“Sister Fengyi, I stayed here last night, no one was at home, and I didn’t want to disturb Sister Chu’s rest.”

“Then you should come to my house.”

Chu Fengyi said, but her eyes were full of envy.

“I’ll go to Sister Fengyi’s house tonight.”

Ji Yun held Chu Fengyi’s hand, and Chu Fengyi’s emotions stabilized instantly.

Xu Lin also looked a little jealous. For long-term stability, I really have to hold onto Class Monitor Ji’s thigh tightly!

“Let’s go, it’s almost time.” Chu Qingchan glanced at her phone and found it was already 6:05.

“Xu Lin is injured, we plan to ride our bikes there instead of running.”

“You’re injured?” Chu Qingchan and Chu Fengyi immediately approached. Chu Fengyi’s nose was very sharp, and she directly smelled the smell.

“Abdominal injury?”

“Yeah, it’s not serious. So don’t worry.” Xu Lin really didn’t care about this injury. He felt he could dismantle it in the afternoon.

“Since you’re not running, then I’ll go home and rest.”

Chu Qingchan saw that Xu Lin really had no problem, raised her arm, and said.

Then the three of them looked at her at the same time, shaking their heads together, “Everyone can rest, except you.”
