"Did you only focus on the food truck and not notice that there's an extra electric scooter here?"
Lin Yihang proudly patted the brand new electric scooter, changing the subject.
He really didn't want to dwell too much on Tong Jie's situation, unwilling to let others look at her with pity. He had already considered Tong Jie as his woman and would soon help her change her circumstances.
"Yours?"
Dong Qing's attention was indeed quickly diverted.
"How about it? Isn't it beautiful?" Lin Yihang boasted.
"Really nice," Dong Qing praised.
"Hehe!" Lin Yihang smiled proudly, but then he heard Dong Qing continue:
"Really nice, now I don't have to worry about you hitching rides anymore."
"..." Lin Yihang was speechless. He looked at Dong Qing with an innocent expression, wondering why she had to be so harsh.
"Come on, let me give you a ride and let you experience what it's like to hitch a ride." Lin Yihang patted the back seat.
The back seat of the electric scooter was wide and padded, much more comfortable than a bicycle.
"No interest!"
Dong Qing refused straightforwardly.
"Tsk! You missed the chance to get close to a rich and handsome guy." Lin Yihang shook his head, feeling sorry for Dong Qing.
Dong Qing pursed her lips. Was this guy feeling too good about himself?
"Go ahead! I'll ride my bicycle, it's slow." As they went out, Dong Qing said.
"You don't need to wait for me," Lin Yihang asked.
"Okay!" Dong Qing nodded.
"Alright! Bye!"
Lin Yihang waved, accelerated the electric scooter, and sped off.
He actually left?
Although Dong Qing didn't want to go with Lin Yihang, seeing him leave so easily made her feel uncomfortable.
What a lousy guy?
She had waited for him for so long, and he just left without a second thought?
Not to mention, she was a beauty, and usually, many guys would try to get close to her. If there was such an opportunity, who would let it go?
But soon, Dong Qing realized that although this guy didn't look like much, he didn't seem to lack for female company. Yang Tingting was no less attractive than her in every aspect, and Lu Man was also young and beautiful. Thinking about last night... just thinking about it made Dong Qing's face burn.
Tong Jie's appearance and demeanor, especially her mature charm, made Dong Qing secretly admire her. Such a high-quality woman actually looked at Lin Yihang differently... not just differently, but with complete sincerity!
Dong Qing certainly didn't think these three high-quality women had poor taste. Could it be that Lin Yihang had something special?
"Damn! I'm going to be late!"
After a moment of daze, she suddenly came to her senses. She had left at the right time initially, but waiting for Lin Yihang and then daydreaming... she was definitely going to be late!
"This guy! Making me late, he's really despicable!"
Poor Lin Yihang was blamed again.
...
With his feet on the pedals, the morning breeze blew in his face, and Lin Yihang felt that riding an electric scooter was much more comfortable than running.
The distance from the apartment to the school was not far, and it took less than five minutes to get there.
At the school gate, Su Cheng, wearing a school uniform and a pair of sunglasses, held an ice cream cone, looking lazy. His eyes scanned the passing students.
Behind him, two classmates followed, both looking laid-back. The three of them were laughing and chatting.
"Hey? Isn't that Lin Yihang?" Suddenly, a pimply-faced guy pointed ahead.
"It is! He's even riding a new electric scooter!" Another classmate behind him said.
"Hey, when did this little loser become so cool? I heard he's been quite popular these past few days!" Su Cheng's face was full of displeasure.
It was school time, and there were many students coming and going at the school gate. Hearing their comments, they all looked at Lin Yihang with pity.
Who was this unlucky guy that Su Cheng had targeted? He definitely wouldn't have a good outcome!
"Come on, Er Chao, you go!" Su Cheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he beckoned to one of the guys behind him, whispering a few words.
"Hehe, Mr. Su, rest assured. I'll make this show-off guy lose face today." Er Chao smiled knowingly after listening.
He bent down and grabbed a broom from a classmate who was cleaning.
"This is mine..." The classmate was about to argue, but Er Chao immediately glared, "Get lost!"
The classmate mumbled a few words, full of dissatisfaction, but didn't dare to say more. A girl who was cleaning with him pulled him aside.
Er Chao held the broom and pretended to sweep the ground, blocking the path where Lin Yihang would ride his scooter.
Lin Yihang was riding the electric scooter, feeling quite pleased.
"Hehe, no need for magical power, no spells or formations, it can run on its own. Earth's technology is truly amazing."
He marveled to himself.
"Less effort, and sitting is comfortable. But the speed is too slow!"
Lin Yihang began to miss the glory of controlling a flying sword before he came to this world.
"Well, I can't ask for too much. I'm still just a mortal, and having such a useful tool is pretty good!"
He was so engrossed in the new experience that he didn't notice the situation ahead.
Er Chao saw Lin Yihang's dazed look and smiled. As the electric scooter approached, he was already prepared. He suddenly thrust the broom handle into the front wheel.
When a stick suddenly gets stuck in the front wheel while the scooter is moving... anyone with cycling experience knows how serious the consequences can be.
The front wheel, which was rolling quickly, suddenly stopped, and the back wheel almost lifted off the ground. It looked like both the scooter and the rider would crash to the ground.
Although Lin Yihang was initially distracted, he reacted as soon as Er Chao made his move. However, seeing the broom handle jam into the wheel, it was too late to avoid it.
He could only push the handlebars with both hands, kick with his feet, and jump to the side.
Thud!
His feet hit the ground, and he stumbled back a few steps before stabilizing himself.
Bang!
A loud crash, the electric scooter fell hard and slid several meters. Unknown fragments flew out, and something was broken.
"Damn! This guy's reaction is pretty quick!" Er Chao slapped his leg, full of regret.
"Er Chao, you can't even do this? If I were you, I'd buy a block of tofu and bash my head against it." The pimply-faced classmate laughed and mocked.
"It's not all Er Chao's fault. This little loser's reaction is indeed quick! Look at that jump, like a monkey with a burned foot! Hahaha..." Su Cheng pointed at Lin Yihang and laughed.
"Hahaha..." Er Chao and the others naturally joined in the laughter.
On one hand, when the boss makes a joke, whether it's funny or not, they have to laugh. They should have this awareness.
On the other hand... Lin Yihang's actions were really funny!
Isn't the pleasure of teasing someone exactly this?
