Chapter 55 Happy!
Chapter 55 Happy!
"Officer, look at that Akashi Mio. Her name means 'reasonable,' but she's completely unreasonable! I accidentally transferred too much money to her, and she didn't even ask a question before blocking me. It's obvious she's going to swallow all that extra 163.46 yuan! That's a week's worth of food money! Officer, you have to help me!"
"Okay, okay, I'll contact her right away, I'll contact her right away..."
In the dispute mediation room, Lin Jianlu secretly glanced at the police officer's impatient expression as he made the phone call, wiped away the tears that had squeezed out of the corners of her eyes, and chuckled to herself.
Akashi Mio, since you've blocked me, don't blame me for finding an excuse to get back at you.
To be fair, although the methods were a bit underhanded, Lin Jianlu didn't think she had done anything wrong. The main mistake was clearly made by Akashi Mio. If she had just spoken properly, none of this would have happened.
Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that this guy might have developed some kind of psychological trauma towards her, after all, she really hit him pretty hard.
But we're not face to face now, we're just separated by a phone screen, so what's there to be afraid of?
Lin Jianlu genuinely didn't understand.
However, since this person is already in such a bad state, there's no need for further communication. Just get the money back, clarify the matter, and then delete the message.
"Okay." The police officer hung up the phone and nodded to Lin Jianlu. "She said she removed you from the blacklist."
"Thank you, officer!"
Lin Jianlu immediately looked down and unlocked her phone.
[Lin Jianlu: I'm really at my wit's end with you, pay me back!]
[Mio Akashi: Transferred 163.46 yuan]
[Lin Jianlu: Before accepting payment, I only have one question for you: Did Chen Chen save anyone?]
After a brief silence, Akashi Mio replied to the message.
【Akashi Mio: ない, これがprivately contact each other, してanimation, で釈明してもらったreason, です. 】
……
It was 7:30 p.m. Lin Jianlu had just exited the subway station when she saw Chen Chen on his electric scooter waiting for her at the station entrance.
"Oh, you're here right on time?" Lin Jianlu raised an eyebrow.
"Of course, how could I not come when you called me?" Chen Chen smiled and handed the helmet to Lin Jianlu.
"Ugh, I don't want to wear it..."
"That won't do, the traffic police have been cracking down hard lately," Chen Chen said, fastening his helmet.
"So annoying!" The girl pouted, but still put the helmet on her head, fastened the straps, and sat down behind Chen Chen.
With a brisk "hum" of the engine, the electric scooter started.
The streets were bustling with people, and the evening breeze swept past the two of them, filling the air with the aroma of food wafting from various small shops.
Pan-fried buns, crab shell pastries, pork rib rice cakes, mutton pies... all sorts of aromas mingled together, making Lin Jianlu unable to stop swallowing her saliva.
"It smells so good..."
"Want to eat it?"
"Um!"
"But Grandma has already cooked dinner."
"Then can you ride a little faster? You clearly don't want me to buy anything, but you're riding so slowly and just loitering around in front of these stores. Aren't you deliberately trying to tempt me?"
"I mainly want to eat it too..."
"Stop! Stop! Stop the car!"
As soon as Lin Jianlu stopped the car, she got out and rushed to the shops. She bought a little of everything, filling five, six, seven, or eight bags. With one in her mouth, another in her hand, and another in her arms, she ran happily to Chen Chen, opened the bags for him to take, like a little dog showing off its spoils.
"Why are you being so generous today?"
"Can't I be happy?" The girl chuckled, her bright, watery eyes sparkling in the dim night.
Actually, she wasn't that happy, but when she thought that the boy in front of her wasn't some hero who went into the water to save people, but the idiot she had always known, she couldn't help but want to reward him!
Rescuing people from drowning is such a dangerous thing. If you can, never do it in your life. Even if you watch someone drown, you should never go in!
Yes, Lin Jianlu is that selfish. She has no noble awareness of sacrificing herself for righteousness; her own life is the most important thing, and putting other people's lives above her own can only be described in one word.
That's stupid!
At first, although she denied it, she always felt that Chen Chen, that idiot, was capable of doing such a thing, and she was always depressed, as if she was being held back by something.
Now that she had received news from Akashi Mio confirming that he hadn't done such a thing, she felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from her heart, and she immediately became much happier.
"Waaah—"
"Oh my god!"
A sudden gust of evil wind swept by, and the girl, caught off guard, fell directly into Chen Chen's arms.
The light blue and white school uniform fabric was thin, and when the evening breeze suddenly blew, the loose uniform clung tightly to her body, outlining the girl's slender figure under the streetlights. Chen Chen's hand unconsciously brushed against the girl's back, and the soft yet bony touch made him realize that this girl seemed to be no different from other girls her age, all equally delicate and gentle.
The girl was unaware of the turmoil in the boy's heart. She simply looked up, chewing on the pan-fried bun in her mouth, and humming a laugh.
"I never imagined you could be used like this, to shield me from the wind!"
Chen Chen shook his head: "It's more accurate to say you're too weak; even a gust of wind could knock you over."
"I'll give you a punch!"
"Damn it, there's oil on your fist!"
"Hehehe! You've reminded me..."
The girl giggled and stuffed the whole bag in her arms into Chen Chen's arms. Before he could react, she reached out her two mischievous little hands and smeared them all over his body.
"Damn it, you wicked bastard!"
"Hahaha... If you keep cursing, I'll rub your hair with these oily hands!"
"Look how naughty you are!"
"You're not as bad as me!"
The girl's clear laughter rang out in the lively night. Even with a helmet on, her delicate face was still incredibly beautiful, attracting passersby to stop and observe. Some even took out their phones to take pictures of her adorable profile, which was stuffed full of food.
But Lin Jianlu doesn't care about these paparazzi photos; rather, she simply doesn't care about them at all right now.
As for the reason, it was that she was quickly defeated in her fierce battle with Chen Chen!
"Let go of me! Take my hand away... Waaaaaah..."
Chen Chen then stuffed a pan-fried dumpling into her mouth.
"Are you still going to be naughty?"
"I'll give you one... Waaaaah..."
Okay, now his legs are also pinned down.
"Are you still going to be naughty?"
"Pfft... Pfft, you're being naughty..." The girl's mouth was stuffed with a pan-fried bun, and her voice was muffled.
"Okay, that's a good girl..."
As he spoke, Chen Chen was about to release her.
But suddenly, he felt that the girl's eyes were very, very close to his, so close that he could almost completely perceive the joy revealed in those bright pupils.
What was going on? He was puzzled for a moment, then his mind was filled with sudden astonishment.
"Here's a pan-fried bun for you!" the girl giggled, tilting her head away.
"Eh? I've already eaten half of it... uh... oh well! Half is still a reward from me, so you can enjoy my saliva!"
