The volunteer activity ended quickly.
Jiang Linyuan took off his vest, feeling a bit tired.
[Refreshed and Renewed] activated! That feels great, ready to go another three hundred rounds!
Now I can do so proper work in the evening.
The sound of footsteps approached.
"What are you thinking about, Senior?"
Lin Yilin, who had also finished her work, ca over to Jiang Linyuan with Zhang Juntang in tow and asked.
"Thinking about what to eat tonight."
Jiang Linyuan answered directly.
Perfect timing to invite Yu Songsong and incidentally boost so favorability.
"Oh..."
Lin Yilin tilted her head slightly, looking up at Jiang Linyuan as she asked:
"Is Senior going alone?"
"Does Xiao Yilin really want to go with ?"
Jiang Linyuan asked with a smile.
Lin Yilin felt a bit embarrassed. She naturally wouldn't admit she wanted to go; girls still have a bit of reserve. She instinctively beca stubborn:
"Just so-so."
Ha, a platypus indeed, quacking stubbornly.
"Oh, I see."
Jiang Linyuan drew out the last syllable, deliberately saying:
"I was actually planning to take Xiao Yilin along."
Lin Yilin could tell he was teasing her again. She flailed her arms and bared her teeth:
"Dog Senior!"
This Xiao Yilin, isn't she getting more and more outrageous? Where's that pure and adorable junior from before?
Who corrupted her!
"If you want to co, then co. I was just about to invite Yu Songsong anyway. You can give
so good backup support then."
Jiang Linyuan said casually.
Lin Yilin felt a bit unhappy.
Senior and that Yu Songsong are making eyes at each other. Why should I go?
Thinking this, she asked again:
"Can Juntang co too?"
Zhang Juntang on the side was a bit surprised but didn't say anything. She secretly lifted her eyelids to glance at Jiang Linyuan, seemingly waiting for his reply.
Their relationship is pretty good, much better than Yu Songsong's roommate situation.
Jiang Linyuan also understood that Lin Yilin purely felt awkward about being a third wheel later.
Besides, this Zhang Juntang is also a soft-spoken type who doesn't like to talk. Bringing her along is fine.
"Alright, four people. Hot pot is okay, right?"
"Mhm, whatever Senior says."
Lin Yilin nodded obediently.
Zhang Juntang had no objections either.
As he spoke, Jiang Linyuan started contacting Yu Songsong:
"Junior, want to co out for hot pot tonight? Party of four, one guy, three girls."
"Sure, sure! Senior, you haven't gone far, right? I'll co find you right away."
Yu Songsong replied very quickly.
Soon, she arrived, her chest bouncing as she hurried over.
"Senior, I encountered sothing super disgusting today."
As soon as they t, she started dumping her emotional baggage:
"A cleaner auntie wanted to slack off and kept grabbing volunteers to use as cheap labor! And soone actually listened to her and almost went to work for her!"
That sounds a bit familiar.
"You encountered her too, Junior?"
Jiang Linyuan asked in surprise.
"Ah, she ca looking for you too, Senior?"
Yu Songsong was also surprised.
This auntie understands the principle of casting a wide net.
Jiang Linyuan turned to look at Lin Yilin and Zhang Juntang:
"You guys encountered her too?"
"No."
Lin Yilin answered quickly, then said indignantly:
"People like that are too awful. Slacking off themselves is one thing, but trying to make others work for her!"
Yu Songsong's eyes shifted, feeling a bit awkward, pretending she didn't hear.
She herself was actually slacking off during volunteering too, initially thinking of having Jiang Linyuan do her work.
Then she saw Zhang Juntang, whose face was flushed red beside Lin Yilin. Ah, that little pushover.
Jiang Linyuan also noticed Zhang Juntang's unusual reaction and asked:
"The person Junior Yu ntioned who almost got pulled into working, that wasn't you, was it?"
Zhang Juntang didn't speak, her face red, head lowered, pretending to be an ostrich as she nodded.
Where's the courage you had when you tugged my sleeve? You only dare to go crazy on , huh, you little Crazy Woman?
"Ah?"
Lin Yilin was also surprised, her eyebrows furrowing:
"Juntang, why didn't you tell !"
Zhang Juntang hemd and hawed, not saying anything, giving off a feeling that if asked again, she'd commit suicide.
Yu Songsong couldn't stand seeing her like this the most and sneered sarcastically:
"Getting hit and not even knowing to cry out. Really don't know what to say about you."
"Saying that is a bit too much, isn't it?"
Lin Yilin spoke up for Zhang Juntang, but Yu Songsong simply ignored her, asking with a smile:
"Am I wrong? Not even having the will to resist. Next ti sothing like this happens, will you just stand there wide-eyed waiting for soone else to co save you?"
Yu Songsong's words weren't really ant to belittle Zhang Juntang; it was more a case of frustration at her lack of progress.
Just a bit too much gunpowder in the tone.
Lin Yilin knew Yu Songsong was right, so she didn't say much more, leaning close to Zhang Juntang's ear to whisper:
"Juntang, next ti you encounter sothing like this, you have to tell !"
Zhang Juntang pressed her lips together and nodded.
The four of them walked together, Jiang Linyuan and Yu Songsong side by side, Lin Yilin dragging Zhang Juntang along behind.
Outside, the sky was completely dark, lights lit up on both sides of the street, various neon signs flashing.
Along the way, Lin Yilin watched Jiang Linyuan and Yu Songsong chatting and laughing ahead, feeling extrely gloomy.
Senior doesn't even glance at ! And he said he'd take
to enjoy a two-person world after the volunteer activity ended!
Lin Yilin was upset, unwilling to speak. The little silent bottle, Zhang Juntang, was even less likely to talk.
The two of them barely communicated the whole way, the atmosphere very low.
Jiang Linyuan felt a chill down his back and turned to look.
Where did this resentful spirit co from?
Lin Yilin was walking with her head down, ntally dismbering Jiang Linyuan into eight pieces. She didn't notice him suddenly stop and walked straight into him.
"Eh..."
Lin Yilin covered her forehead, lifting her head in confusion.
"Xiao Yilin, you hurt ."
Jiang Linyuan pointed at his chest, saying pitifully.
Seeing him take the initiative to talk to her, Lin Yilin felt a bit happy, but she pursed her lips, about to say sothing.
But just then, Yu Songsong on the side smiled and leaned over, looking at Jiang Linyuan:
"Where did Senior get hurt?"
Why didn't it just kill you!
Lin Yilin got even angrier. She turned her head, grabbed Zhang Juntang, and stomped forward quickly.
"Is she okay?"
Does this person have a problem with ?
Yu Songsong watched Lin Yilin's actions, raising an eyebrow as she asked Jiang Linyuan.
"Girls always have those few days when they're in a bad mood."
Jiang Linyuan followed leisurely behind.
Lin Yilin walked ahead, fuming, but also feeling a bit worried. Would Senior think I'm throwing a tantrum, deliberately causing trouble?
Thinking this, her steps slowed down again. She secretly glanced back to see if Jiang Linyuan was following.
Seeing he was still smiling happily, she finally relaxed a little.
"Ah, I need to use the restroom. You guys go ahead."
Halfway there, Jiang Linyuan suddenly said.
Lin Yilin pretended not to care but was actually secretly observing.
She noticed Jiang Linyuan didn't go to the restroom but instead turned and walked into a boutique shop.
He's going to buy a gift for Yu Songsong, right?
Her heart felt sore from being kneaded by emotions, the feeling surging up from her chest all the way up.
I won't look!
Lin Yilin pressed her lips together, forcing herself to look away.
Soon after, Jiang Linyuan returned, smiling happily.
They quickly arrived at the hot pot restaurant, went to the second floor, and walked up the stairs one by one.
At that mont, Lin Yilin suddenly felt a soft, fluffy touch on her hand. She looked down. It was Jiang Linyuan's hand, and it seed to be holding sothing.
"For Xiao Yilin."
Jiang Linyuan said softly with a smile, then let go.
It was a small Harry Potter figurine.
In that instant, all the sourness in her heart vanished. The corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up.
But Lin Yilin still had so reserve, thinking, Senior really does think I was throwing a tantrum, doesn't he? He even gave
a toy.
"Thank you, Senior. I... I'll treat you to a al next ti!"
Afraid Yu Songsong might see, she quickly took the figurine and whispered.
After a mont, she mustered up her courage and asked:
"Aren't you going to give one to Yu Songsong, Senior?"
"Ha."
A smile spread across Jiang Linyuan's face as he looked at Lin Yilin:
"Does Xiao Yilin want
to give her one?"
"No, no, that's not it!"
Lin Yilin blushed, quickly waving her hands, muttering softly:
"It's just... aren't you pursuing her? You should give her a little gift, right."
"That's true."
Jiang Linyuan nodded, extending his hand:
"Then give
the figurine, Xiao Yilin. I'll go give it to Yu Songsong."
Yah yah yah! This Senior!
Lin Yilin hurriedly put the figurine into her bag, puffing out her cheeks:
"I'll help you buy another one. Maybe she doesn't like this type."
"No need. She doesn't care about this kind of thing."
Jiang Linyuan waved his hand.
"That's not necessarily true. Senior, you're not a girl. You don't understand girls."
Lin Yilin pouted, refuting him.
Jiang Linyuan stopped walking, glancing at her:
"I don't really understand girls, but so people are very easy to understand."
Lin Yilin t his gaze, and her face imdiately flushed red again, stained with rouge over and over, as if the color couldn't fade.
"Is that so?"
"Mhm."
Lin Yilin faced the light, lifting her small face, her eyes curving into crescents:
"Actually, sotis people who are easy to understand are like that on purpose. It's just that Senior didn't notice."
