In order to prevent further panic and confusion, the two signed the "Lin Bai Mutual Non-Aggression Pact" on the electric scooter. The signing of this treaty marked the formal establishment of a good diplomatic relationship between Lin and Bai.
This demonstrated the harmonious coexistence between humans and nature.
This was not only a small step for Lin Li, but a giant leap backward for humanity.
After arriving at the restaurant they had agreed upon that afternoon at the inn, the girls had already arrived and secured a table.
The girls already had their fill, leaving Lin Li and Bai Bufan to clean up the leftovers.
Typically at a group meal, at the start: "I want this, I want that," and everyone happily orders their food.
By the end: "You ordered this, you finish it," and everyone frantically passes the buck.
But these three girls skipped the latter part altogether, only concerned with the killing but not the burial, treating Lin Li and Bai Bufan like Zhou Baowei.
However, since the day’s schedule was leisurely, they weren’t in a hurry and could eat slowly.
"Bufan, eat more cucumber; cucumber can improve memory."
After eating a bite of tasteless salad, Lin Li couldn’t understand why anyone would like such a thing. He picked out the cucumber and placed it on Bai Bufan’s plate, saying so.
Lin Li likes only one type of salad:
As everyone knows, salad means vegetables plus fruits.
Potatoes are vegetables, and tomatoes are fruits.
Therefore, fries + ketchup = salad.
This formula Lin Li learned from Zhou Baowei.
"You can’t fool me just because I didn’t study much. Who told you that cucumber can improve memory?"
Bai Bufan, also full, tossed the cucumber back and questioned.
"It’s true, ten years ago I stuffed a cucumber into my deskmate’s butt, and now ten years later, he forgot everything from first grade except this incident, which he remembers vividly without forgetting a single detail.
He even told me he’d never forget this for the rest of his life.
See the effect? His memory improved dramatically."
Lin Li leaned in and whispered, providing an example to support his theory.
"This way of enhancing memory is a bit off, wouldn’t you say! The way you put it makes it even harder for me to eat a cucumber... damn, I’ve come to realize, ’Lin Li’s deskmate’ is truly a hazardous occupation, a consumable, really."
Bai Bufan angrily flipped Lin Li the bird, then sighed sorrowfully:
"But you mentioning this reminds me of Baowei’s illness, I wonder when it will be cured."
"Oh, what illness, please tell?" Lin Li inquired.
In fact, Lin Li knew better than anyone that whatever Bai Bufan uttered next would definitely not be humane, but at this moment, it took a saint not to ask. Playing along, Lin Li was willing to cater.
"He has a fear of bulls, every time I enter his rectum, he screams in fear, too embarrassed to see a doctor, I’m truly worried for him, not knowing what to do, alas." Bai Bufan sighed mournfully.
He was mentally prepared, but still not enough.
"The role of ’Bufan’s roommate’ might be a bit more dangerous than being ’Lin Li’s desk mate’, right?" Lin Li heartfeltly reflected.
The two exchanged a look, realizing the similarly hazardous nature of their respective roles, and both grinned with relief. Read full story at n0velfire.net
"What are you two laughing at? Such perversion?" Across the table, Ding Sihan put down her phone, looked at the two exchanging flirtatious glances and grinning lewdly, shivered, and said.
"Naturally, it’s the kind of content unsuited for children that sleazy men talk about from below."
Lin Li aimed to be honest.
"Sir, I noticed your cup is empty. Would you like another drink?" The waitress, patrolling the store, noticed Lin Li’s glass was empty and approached to ask.
"Why would I want two empty cups?" Lin Li asked puzzledly.
The waitress.exe failed to respond.
"Eh... So, so, if you don’t need another drink, is there anything else I can help with?" The waitress forcibly rebooted and politely inquired again.
"Can you help me pay the bill then?" Lin Li sincerely asked.
The waitress.exe gave up running and logged out.
Bai Bufan felt that the waitress’s tray might hit Lin Li’s face at any moment, while trying to steer clear, yet eagerly anticipating the scene to unfold.
Do it, do it, I want to see a river of blood.
"Alright, stop acting crazy in a public place, let’s settle the bill after we’re done."
Chen Yu Ying, her lips adorned with enticingly shiny gloss, cast an amused yet helpless glare at Lin Li, most certainly on purpose, and stood up.
The two had indeed eaten to their limits.
After all, not everyone is Zhou Baowei.
"Our store is currently hosting a lottery event in collaboration with the zoo. Just by spending, you can enter for free, and your spending amount qualifies you for five entries. Why not give it a try?"
After scanning to pay, the staff pointed at the draw drum on the counter and said.
If it’s free, might as well give it a shot.
Lin Li was the first to step up, turned the drum, and after a while, a bead rolled out. When the staff saw the bead’s color, they congratulated, "Congratulations, you’ve won the first prize."
Lin Li was slightly surprised.
Do I really have such fortune?
Could it be that I’ve exhausted my luck in such odd instances, which is why I keep failing infinitely when drawing "random quality spirit stones"?
This is not something that can be compensated for.
"What’s the first prize?" But for now, Lin Li decided to enjoy his good fortune and asked.
