53rd Hero Who Saved Lives
[Sister Xuanxuan: Cheng Xiuxiu apologized to me. She said she acted impulsively at the time, and when she saw what you said was a bit harsh, she couldn't help but defend Chen Chen.]
Lin Jianlu: I don't understand...
[Sister Xuanxuan: In short, what she meant was that we should try to maintain a friendly and relaxed atmosphere and avoid saying hurtful things, otherwise she would be very upset.]
Why does it feel so bitchy...?
[Sister Xuanxuan: There's one more thing. Cheng Xiuxiu hopes to ease the tension between you and Chen Chen, so she'd like to invite you two to her house for a barbecue this Sunday.]
[Lin Jianlu: Sigh, when did Chen Chen and I ever need to mend our relationship...?]
[Sister Xuanxuan: I never expected that you and Chen Chen could become rivals in love. It's absolutely ridiculous!]
Ugh, it's so hard to keep this up.
Lin Jianlu put down her phone, rested her chin on her hand, and looked at Chen Chen not far away.
Son: Chen Chen
Mother-child intimacy level: 21/100
Health Rating: 57/100
[Mental Health Score: 69/100]
His health score was a little low because his head was still wrapped in bandages, but it wasn't a big problem. Yesterday, she peeled off the bandages and looked at his head. There was nothing there except a small scab. She just didn't know if it would leave a scar, but it shouldn't be a big problem since the scab was quite small. She estimated that even if it did leave a scar, it wouldn't be too big.
However, his mental health score was indeed quite high. She thought it was because Cheng Xiuxiu had protected him yesterday. At that time, she saw his mental health score rise rapidly at a visible speed, which made her both angry and want to laugh, but she had to hold it in. Unable to contain herself, she quickly apologized hastily and left.
Chen Chen will likely interpret this as a sign that a rift has developed between Cheng Xiuxiu and Lin Baolong, and that his chance to rise to power is just around the corner.
That's something to be happy about. Anyone would be happy for a while if they successfully poached someone else's partner.
Unfortunately, all of these are fake.
Chen Chen may never understand that the person who hindered his relationship with Cheng Xiuxiu from the beginning was not Lin Baolong, but the innocent girl he was chatting and laughing with right now—Cheng Xiuxiu.
"Looking at them again?"
Suddenly, a playful chuckle rang out, startling Lin Jianlu. She quickly turned around and saw that it was indeed Yan Yiyan.
"Stop appearing and disappearing like that, okay? You scared me to death!"
Lin Jianlu shouted and slapped Yan Yiyan on the head.
"Don't hit my head, or I'll stunt my growth!" The girl huffed and puffed, covering her head with her pink lips, looking adorable.
"You still expect to grow taller? Don't even think about it, you're just a 1.5-meter-tall little bean sprout."
"How could you, with lips that are 36 degrees Celsius, say something like that?!" Yan Yiyan was so angry that she bared her teeth and pounced on Lin Jianlu, panting heavily. "I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
"You're lecturing me?" Lin Jianlu chuckled, grabbing the girl's hands that were trying to assault him. "I'm the one bullying you, aren't I?"
Then came Lin Jianlu's wicked, lewd laughter and Yan Yiyan's shrill screams, making everyone break out in a cold sweat.
"Waaah...you pervert...shameless..." After a while, Yan Yiyan sobbed as she put on her school uniform jacket, which had been crumpled by Lin Jianlu, and zipped it up all the way.
"I just touched to see if I was wearing a bra, what kind of pervert is that?" Lin Jianlu learned from his previous mistake and chuckled as he held Yan Yiyan tightly in his arms, not letting her move at all.
The girl's sweet fragrance lingered in her nose, making her unable to resist reaching into her pocket to see what kind of candy she had prepared today.
However, what I found was—
Lin Jianlu frowned, shook the blood-stained sanitary napkin in her hand a couple of times, felt a chill, and quickly threw it away.
"Yan Yiyan, how can you be so disgusting? You even have a fetish for keeping these things?"
She was so disgusted that she pushed the girl in her arms onto the seat next to her.
"Oh no!" Yan Yiyan picked up the sanitary napkin and explained to Lin Jianlu repeatedly:
"This isn't blood... wait, it is blood..."
"It's blood, why aren't you throwing it away? It's no different from used toilet paper!" Lin Jianlu said, turning her head further and further away.
"No, no, you've got it wrong!" Yan Yiyan hurriedly clarified, "This is Chen Chen's blood!"
Chen Chen is on his period too? Yan Yiyan, even though we're not studying biology anymore, don't try to fool me with something that even a child wouldn't believe, okay?
Lin Jianlu didn't speak, but stared at Yan Yiyan with the look of someone looking at an idiot, her face showing extreme disgust, and her body unconsciously moving further and further away from her.
Yan Yiyan was furious and hurriedly explained, "This is blood from Chen Chen's head! It's the blood from when he cut his head last weekend. I used this to stop the bleeding, and then I didn't throw it away!"
Oh, I see.
But Lin Jianlu was still puzzled: "Then why don't you throw it away?"
The girl tilted her head and smiled, "Of course it's to prove to Chen Chen how much I care about him!"
Holy crap, don't you think that reason is morbid?
Lin Jianlu frowned deeply, looking at Yan Yiyan with a tense gaze that seemed to indicate she was seeing her in a completely new light.
"Hmph! You just don't understand!" Yan Yiyan turned her head, grinning, her hair cascading down her back with a delighted smile. She pointed in the direction of Chen Chen and Cheng Xiuxiu, "Our great vice president, Chen Chen, he's about to hook up with a rich woman and become a phoenix!"
You're dreaming.
Lin Jianlu almost burst out laughing when she heard this.
This Yan Yiyan, she really only knows one side of the story and not the other. She thinks Chen Chen is going to hook up with a rich woman and is in a hurry to curry favor with him.
But what she didn't know was that the rich woman would never allow Chen Chen to get close to her!
Ah, the information gap! A sense of smug satisfaction at having mastered all the secrets instantly filled her with joy.
But she couldn't show it yet, since it would be very impolite to casually shatter someone's daydream.
She could only feign ignorance and timidly ask the overjoyed girl:
"Doesn't Cheng Xiuxiu have a boyfriend? I don't think Chen Chen is very likely to be involved, right?"
"No, no, no, no!" Yan Yiyan quickly waved her fingers, a blush of excitement spreading across her fair face. "You only know one side of the story! Let the clever detective Yan Bao tell you the whole story!"
Hehehe, it's so much fun to tease idiots!
Lin Jianlu suppressed a laugh, pretending to be a curious child, and nodded repeatedly.
"Just yesterday, when you weren't around, Cheng Xiuxiu threw a tantrum at her boyfriend!"
"Huh? Is that so? That's strange. Why is that?" Lin Jianlu opened her bright eyes, full of curiosity.
"Of course it's for Chen Chen! Cheng Xiuxiu has already given up on Chen Chen. When she saw that pretty boy speak rudely to Chen Chen, she immediately got angry! You didn't see it, Cheng Xiuxiu's expression at that time was like she wanted to eat Lin Baolong alive!"
You're kidding me! Xiuxiu even apologized to me later. How could she have eaten me?
But Yan Yiyan's daydreams continued:
"So, in my opinion, Cheng Xiuxiu has definitely been completely captivated by Chen Chen's heroic aura! She might even change boyfriends in a few days!"
"Wait, wait!" Lin Jianlu interrupted Yan Yiyan's fantasy. "I have reservations about the possibility of her changing boyfriends, but Chen Chen, he has absolutely no heroic qualities, I think he's got the qualities of a complete idiot!"
"Huh? You didn't know either?" Yan Yiyan's eyes widened.
"What? I don't know?" Lin Jianlu asked, puzzled.
Are you kidding me? She knows Chen Chen inside and out. Recently, in order to complete that stupid diaper-changing task from the system, she even found out whether Chen Chen sleeps naked at night!
But the girl's next words left her stunned.
"A hero who saved a life! Chen Chen is a hero who bravely rescued a woman from drowning. I only recently found out about this. You didn't know either?"
