Lin Li and Chen Yuying seemed to be fighting, now in a standoff.

Neither of them looked happy.

Wang Yuezhi keenly noticed this.

Hehe.

He excitedly stuffed the small pack of Breeze tissues he always kept as a spare into his pocket. Go on, fight, fight! Fight until the world turns upside down, and give me, the nice guy Wang Yuezhi, a chance to make my entrance!

They say the nice guy comes after the dog. Isn't Lin Li that dog? It'll be my turn soon.

The beautiful girl and the dog were smiling again, seemingly having patched things up.

No hehe.

...

"What are you laughing at, Class President? Is this very funny? Just tell me, if I were a bad pervert, would you still dare to say that in front of me? You wouldn't even dare to sit next to me, right!

So I'm being very serious in emphasizing this matter with you! You're being very disrespectful to me! Whether it's a good pervert or not, there's a world of difference between them!" Lin Li said seriously.

"I'm really sorry. I won't make this mistake next time. Please forgive me." Chen Yuying, trying hard to put on a straight face, failed and said, suppressing her laughter.

She had really been startled just now, thinking Lin Li was genuinely angry.

"Heh heh, if there's a next time, there won't be a third time. If you dare to do it a fourth time, I'll make you know on the fifth time how angry I'll be on the sixth," Lin Li said with a cold laugh.

Chen Yuying blinked. "You're a person with a lot of principles."

"I think so too," Lin Li nodded.

"Alright, back to the matter I need your help with. I really don't dare to say these things in front of them. On the girls' side, not many don't want to go, and I'm trying to persuade the ones who don't. On the boys' side, the ones Zhuo Yongfei isn't familiar with, or can't talk to, the only one I can ask is you, Lin Li."

Chen Yuying looked at Lin Li with expectant eyes and made her request.

"This is a reasonable request that's for the good of the class. As a good youth of the new era, I certainly have no way to refuse and will immediately agree," Lin Li said.

"Thank you, Lin Li!"

"Class President, you're thanking me too early."

Chen Yuying: "?"

"Luckily, I'm not a good youth of the new era. Forgot, Class President? I'm a pervert," Lin Li said sincerely, giving himself a thumbs-up with his right hand.

Chen Yuying: "..."

"But you're a good pervert," it was Chen Yuying's turn to emphasize.

"That's still a pervert, so refusing is still reasonable," Lin Li stressed.

Damn it, Lin Li holds such a grudge!

Chen Yuying bit her lower lip, then released it after a moment. She suddenly reached out, grabbed the hem of Lin Li's short-sleeved shirt, and started shaking it:

"Please, Lin Li~~"

Buhou!

It's a honey trap!

But as a Daoist cultivator, how could Lin Li be swayed by such worldly desires? You have to know, his constitution had been improved, and his resistance to charm techniques had increased by 100%!

So Lin Li turned his head away. "Hmph, begging me is useless."

Damn mouth, don't you dare smile!

Lin Li was in a frantic battle with his own muscles.

Seeing Lin Li's mouth almost twitching sparks, Chen Yuying's shaking of his shirt hem became even more forceful. "Please, please, Lin Li~~ Help me~~"

"I've been killing fish at the wet market for ten years. My heart is already as cold as iron. Class President, even if you call me 'big brother' many times, I won't help you!" The cold-hearted teenager looked out the window and refused firmly.

The teenager's will was like iron, it would absolutely not be broken.

Chen Yuying: "?"

She hadn't called him 'big brother', had she?

Wait.

"..."

First, Chen Yuying imagined a little Lin Li doll in her mind and started frantically sticking pins in it. Second, Chen Yuying ran her upper teeth over her lower lip, and then, in a cutesy voice she could hardly imagine herself using:

"Big brother, big brother~~ Big brother Lin Li~~ Please help me~~"

Lin Li realized something.

Those who say cutesy voices are bad just haven't encountered a good one.

Is it the fate of heroes to be unable to resist a beautiful woman?

Xiao Jing, I'm sorry, my moonlight might have to be someone else. I wish you all the best in the detention center. After you get out, let's not see each other again.

"Big! Brother! Lin! Li!"

While he was distracted, the heavy voice, coupled with increased force, pulled Lin Li's body over a little.

He turned his head to see Chen Yuying, who had been calling him for a while with no response, looking like she was about to start sulking.

"A good youth of the new era, who else but me! Class President, leave this heavy burden to me! Even if Bai Bufan and the others die, I will bring their urns along, use their ashes to make fireworks, and light up our autumn outing path!"

Lin Li, who knew when to quit while he was ahead, immediately patted his chest and accepted this arduous task.

"Remember what you said. If you don't do it well, I'll never teach you again," Chen Yuying immediately withdrew her hand, turned her head to face her desk, covered her face with her left hand, and scribbled randomly on a notebook with her right, looking very busy.

But if you looked closely, you would find that the tip of the pen wasn't even touching the paper.

"When I do things, you can rest assured!"

Lin Li stretched, looked up, and found that only he and Chen Yuying were left in the classroom.

When did Wang Yuezhi leave? Why didn't he say anything?

It seemed the math problem had really tormented him this noon.

...

"Class President, how do you do this problem?" The lunch break had officially begun, and Lin Li had also entered study mode. He encountered a problem he didn't know how to solve and asked.

"I don't want to answer any questions from a pervert today, regardless of whether it's a good pervert or not," Chen Yuying said sullenly without even turning her head.

Damn it, the Class President holds such a grudge.

It's fine, just need to coax her a bit.

Lin Li put on a high-pitched voice. "Big siiis~~"

"Lin Li, don't be like that, you're scaring me!" Chen Yuying shivered, whipped her head around, and said at lightning speed, "Give me the problem, I'll teach you now, please just don't talk like that!"

Lin Li: "..."

The effect was achieved. She was indeed coaxed.

The process was a little different from what he had imagined.

Why did he feel a little hurt?

...

"Class President, I'm going to the bathroom."

Lin Li got up, conveniently taking out some small trash that had accumulated in his drawer, and walked to the trash can outside the door.

Someone was quite extravagant, actually throwing a brand new, unused pack of tissues into the trash can. He wondered what they were thinking.

There was no liquid under the tissues, only draft paper. After looking around and seeing no one, Lin Li picked it up with the speed of lightning.

A net profit of one yuan.

The bathroom was at the end of the hallway.

There was a larger open space outside the bathroom door where the water dispenser was placed.

Lin Li saw a familiar person here.

Why was Wang Yuezhi here, sitting on the ground against the wall, his head buried in his thighs?

Was he crying?

Lin Li had heard that good students were very stubborn about solving problems and would even break down when they couldn't. Today, he finally saw it in real life.

Wang Yuezhi hadn't been disgusting to him recently, so Lin Li wasn't so petty as to go over and laugh at him.

Lin Li sighed, walked over silently, took out the tissues he had just picked up, placed them beside him, and then left.

At a time like this, verbal or physical comfort would only cause secondary damage.

Silent comfort was what Wang Yuezhi needed most.

It's not a crime for a man to cry.

...

Wang Yuezhi lifted his head.

He had come out to sit here and look at the scenery to get away from it all. He let out a long, gloomy sigh.

When his peripheral vision noticed the tissues.

He shivered and scrambled on the ground, hiding in the corner of the wall.

Damn it, am I seeing a ghost?

The inescapable, soul-chasing tissues?
