"It's not for show." I said embarrassedly, "It's normal for childhood friends to act like this … probably."
Xiao Qin didn't pursue the matter of me carrying her through the window after seeing my awkwardness.
"Can I sit on this chair?" Xiao Qin pointed to the chair I was sitting on and asked cautiously.
"Sit anywhere." I waved my hand, "As long as it's the etiquette between childhood friends, you don't have to ask for my permission."
Xiao Qin took off her backpack and hung it on the back of the chair. Then she turned towards me and blinked her eyes:
"Ye Lin classmate wants me to continue being his girlfriend in front of Ai Mi and Winnie. Is that also the etiquette between childhood friends?"
"What else would I do?" I asked back, "If Ai Mi finds out you're not my girlfriend anymore, do you know how she would ridicule you?"
"That, that's true …" Xiao Qin's arms trembled slightly. If Ai Mi sprinkles salt on her wounds, Xiao Qin might not be able to handle it.
I couldn't bear to see Xiao Qin's sad expression, so I comforted her: "Don't be discouraged, I already said I'd give you a second chance. Pretend we're a couple in front of Ai Mi and Winnie, just treat it as a rehearsal."
It was as if Xiao Qin was enchanted by a fairy godmother and her entire body emitted light and vitality.
"I, I'll definitely work hard. I'll definitely work hard to become a girl that Ye Lin classmate likes more. I'll strive to make Ye Lin classmate take the initiative to ask me to be his girlfriend next time … "
Halfway through, her voice gradually quieted down due to a lack of confidence. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look me in the eye, afraid I would get angry.
"You have to have confidence in yourself." I said, "That's more like you. I'm not used to you talking so little these days. "
"Then …" Xiao Qin saw that I was surprisingly friendly, so she gradually became less reserved, "Can I act spoiled in front of Ai Mi and Winnie when we're a couple?"
"Is that okay?" I don't think I should put too many restrictions on her, otherwise she won't be able to act well. It would be fine if Winnie was seen through by Ai Mi.
"Is it okay to hold onto Ye Lin classmate's arm?"
"Sure."
"Can I hug Ye Lin classmate when I'm happy?"
"Sure."
"I'm going to the mall, can I trouble you to help me carry the shopping bags?"
"Mm, no problem."
"If there's only one seat left on the bus, is it … okay if I sit on Ye Lin classmate's lap?"
"Um … Ai Mi probably won't have a chance to ride the bus with us, right? But Winnie might … "
"Sorry, isn't it too much to ask to sit on Ye Lin classmate's lap …"
"No, if it's in front of Ai Mi or Winnie, and there's no place to stand on the bus, you can sit on my lap."
"Then …" Xiao Qin became more and more excited after hearing me say 'okay' and 'no problem', "Then doesn't that mean as long as I'm in front of Ai Mi and Winnie, I'm more like your girlfriend?"
I frowned and thought about it. "You can think of it that way."
"Hooray ~ (≧ ▽ ∀)/~!!" Xiao Qin couldn't help but want to stand up from her chair to celebrate, but she stopped halfway as if it was too retarded.
"(* ^ _ _ ^ *) Hehe …" But she still couldn't change her nature. She looked at me with a smile and couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.
"Don't laugh like an idiot, you brought your summer homework, right?" I said, "I'll teach you what you don't understand."
Since I can't do any sports right now, it's good to do some mental exercises.
In order to motivate us, the math teacher once said in class: "If you learn math well, you won't have to worry about anything." Although the validity of this sentence is questionable, it's an indisputable fact that Xiao Qin's math, physics, and chemistry are terrible.
When she was calculating the surface area of a cuboid box, Xiao Qin often forgot the area of the bottom because the diagram was not clear and the bottom was blocked by the other four sides.
He even drew a crooked box in the blank space of the answer sheet. Is that a box? That's the remains of SpongeBob SquarePants after it was crushed by 500 million tons of weight.
As for "Why won't the Leaning Tower of Pisa fall?" She didn't answer "center of gravity", "center of gravity", "fulcrum", or "support surface". Instead, she answered with her own feelings:
"Because it's a world-famous attraction, the Italian government sent 1000 people to pull it with ropes. If it fell, they wouldn't be able to collect tickets."
I was afraid the teacher wouldn't understand, so I drew a profile of many people pulling the Leaning Tower of Pisa! Are they people or ants?! Why doesn't the Leaning Tower of Pisa look like a building! If you didn't explain it, I would think it was an ant fighting a caterpillar!
The chemistry homework mentioned that diamond and graphite are the same element, so Xiao Qin was even more confused.
"If it's really the same thing, why didn't the Diamond Sutra change its name to the Graphite Sutra?"
Hurry up and apologize to Buddhists all over the world! Your thinking is too jumpy! Why does it feel like teaching you math is no less difficult than winning LOL with Ai Mi?
On the other hand, Xiao Qin's English homework was done very well. Although the analysis of the Chinese homework was often surprising (for example, the barking of a dog was a description of language), because of her neat and beautiful handwriting, old man Zhang should give her a good grade, right?
Well, I've decided. I'll first guide Xiao Qin to finish her science homework, then I'll copy my own homework. Then I'll be able to finish my homework for this summer.
Even with the curtains closed, there was still plenty of sunlight. I had a rare feeling of peace and comfort as I guided Xiao Qin on her homework.
It's such a normal and peaceful life. I hope my viral heart disease can be cured and I can enjoy this kind of life a bit more.
Time passed by quickly and it was noon in the blink of an eye. Xiao Qin said she wanted to go back to the affiliated hospital to eat with her mother, so I couldn't make her stay.
"Oh right, since we're going to eat lunch, why don't we ask the French chef to make something suitable for patients, then you can give it to Auntie Ren?" I suggested.
The French chef loved his cooking career from the bottom of his heart. As long as someone liked his cooking, he would always be in high spirits and spare no effort to start cooking immediately.
Xiao Qin hesitated for a bit, "Mom wants to eat bamboo shoots, does the French chef know how to make bamboo shoots?"
"Of course! The five-color salad in French cuisine contains bamboo shoots! " I said proudly as if the French chef was my family, "Xiao Qin, as long as you tell him, he will definitely make you a delicious dish with bamboo shoots!"
"I'll tell him?" Xiao Qin was puzzled for a bit, then she realized: "Oh right, the French chef doesn't speak Chinese, but he knows a bit of English, so he can communicate with me in English. As for Ye Lin classmate, it's a bit …"
I blushed, "I always gesture with him or draw what I want to eat on a piece of paper …"
Xiao Qin's eyes lit up after she heard what I said, "If Ye Lin classmate can use drawings to express, then as a future mangaka, I can also draw what I want to eat!"
"Ye Lin classmate, wait a moment, I'll finish drawing it. Take it to the French chef, he'll definitely understand what I want!"
I couldn't stop her in time, she already tore off a piece of draft paper and finished drawing the 'steamed bamboo shoots' in her mind with a ballpoint pen.
So your bamboo shoots look like this! This time, the lines are inexplicably sturdy! It's as sturdy as a building!
This is basically a steamed leaning tower of Pizza, you bastard!
In the end, I had to redraw a crooked steamed bamboo shoot on the back of the draft paper to barely make the French chef understand.
She stayed in room 103 and didn't leave. When she received the packaged steamed bamboo shoots and lean meat congee, she happily bowed to me. At the same time, she thought it was her outstanding drawing skills that allowed the French chef to understand the meaning of the drawing so quickly.
"Hehe O (∩ _ ∩) O ~ This way, mom and I will both have something to eat! Thank you Ye Lin classmate! Help me thank the French chef too! "
With my help, she left through the window. Before she left, she was in a good mood while humming a song and muttering to herself:
"It seems like my drawing skills improved again! I'm almost scared by my own artistic talent! Should I finish the shoujo manga I drew before and submit it to the editor … "
Which manga? Is it 'Love at Zhoukoudian'? Or is it something else that I can't bear to look at?
Let the editor go! Don't use your brush to harm the eyes of the editor! Do you want to draw a story where SpongeBob falls off the leaning tower of pizza, falls into a Chinese tourist's pot and is steamed, then Patrick Star recites the 'Graphite Sutra' with tears in his eyes to help his friend cross over?
Steamed sponge isn't tasty at all! At least it should be steamed Patrick Star! Don't look down on the Chinese tourist who buries a pot under the leaning tower of pizza!
After Xiao Qin left, I accepted a temperature check from Dr. Yu. Right when I was waiting for the French chef to finish preparing lunch, I received a call from Shu Zhe.
"Bro Ye Lin, you … you have to save me!"
Shu Zhe immediately begged me with a sobbing tone after the call connected.
"What trouble did you cause this time?" I asked him in a bad mood.
"I … I didn't cause any trouble this time, it was a disaster that fell from the sky!" Shu Zhe said with an incomparable grievance, "I was forced by 'Uncle Fireball'!"
Huh? Isn't Uncle Fireball a perverted customer on the same level as' Cilantro Buns'? Wasn't it Uncle Fireball who came up with the idea of letting 'Miss Model' sell underwear, as well as blowing balloons and condoms?
"What? Did you meet Uncle Fireball in real life? " I asked, "You usually dress as a man, but his eyes are so sharp that he could recognize you when you were wearing a wig and contact lenses?"
Shu Zhe choked with tears of regret for a while before he finally made up his mind and admitted:
"I, I'm currently at auntie's house. Every day, uncle forces me to walk around in cat maid attire, bring him tea, and massage his back …"
"Wait!" I said in bewilderment, "You just said you were being forced by Uncle Fireball, how did it become your uncle?"
"I …" Shu Zhe, who had suffered countless insults these past few days, couldn't help but burst into tears: "How could I have known that my uncle was Uncle Fireball! He was the one who taught my sister how to use a shotgun, he's my uncle! "
"I haven't seen him for a few years. Ever since he learned how to surf the internet in the guardian's hut, he gradually changed from a veteran hunter to a pervert!"
"He found out that I was the one who sold him the original lingerie. At first, he was very angry, but then he seemed very happy. Now, he is forcing me to continue living in his house. Every day, he closes the door and makes me dress up as a cat maid to serve him! The way he looks at me is also getting weirder! "
"Bro Ye Lin, if you don't come save me, I'm afraid my uncle will …"
