After tidying up, Lin Yihang went out and saw Dong Qing sitting on the sofa, leaning back and reading a book.
Wearing a pair of light gray sweatpants and a horizontally striped shirt, she exuded a youthful aura in the sunlight.
"Ahem, didn't you go to school?" Lin Yihang cleared his throat and asked.
Dong Qing was very diligent. Although it was the weekend and the school didn't require her to attend classes, she would always go to school to study on her own. In fact, there were many students with such initiative, and the classrooms on weekends were still packed. It wasn't that everyone loved studying; it was simply because the pressure of the college entrance exam was too great.
"No!" Dong Qing's face turned slightly red as she replied.
The reason she didn't go to school was quite embarrassing: she had eaten too much at noon and felt too lazy to move. She had rested until now, only just feeling energetic enough to start reading.
"Do you have time? Can you help me with something?" Lin Yihang asked.
"Oh, what is it?" Dong Qing put down her textbook and asked.
"I want to buy a phone and two sets of clothes. I'm not sure if I can pick the right ones by myself. If you have time, could you help me?" Lin Yihang said.
Helping him buy a phone and clothes? That's just shopping! Inviting a girl to go shopping and being so indirect, this guy is really...
Dong Qing started to criticize him in her mind.
Wait! A guy actually invited me to go shopping. Could he have other intentions?
Beautiful girls often have this problem. With many boys chasing them, they tend to develop a psychological advantage, always suspecting whether someone is trying to pursue them when invited.
In the past two days, although Dong Qing's impression of Lin Yihang had improved, she would never agree to his pursuit.
"I still need to review my lessons!" Dong Qing's tone was somewhat cold, implying that she was keeping him at a distance.
Damn!
Lin Yihang was angry. How could he not hear the deliberate evasion in her words?
Damn it! He had just eaten the medicinal soup he prepared, which cost at least six or seven thousand yuan just for the herbs, not to mention the invaluable recipe from Longhu Mountain.
This guy, after eating and drinking, immediately turned his back on him! It's not like he was asking her to go to bed; just to help him buy some things, why be so arrogant?
Lin Yihang was unhappy. Compared to Yang Tingting and Lu Man, this girl was too pretentious and not worth associating with.
You won't get to eat my medicinal soup again.
Lin Yihang thought to himself, his face darkening.
"Fine, if you don't want to, that's fine."
With that, he turned and walked away, not bothering to argue with her.
Dong Qing was taken aback. She didn't directly refuse, just hinted at it. Usually, wouldn't guys keep pestering her? Why did this guy just walk away after one sentence?
Could it be that he's not trying to pursue me?
Hmm, it's very likely! This guy, though not particularly handsome, is not short of beautiful women. From Sister Tong to the beautiful woman in the Golf yesterday, from Yang Tingting to Lu Man... none of them seem to be inferior to me.
In that case, I must have overthought it.
Thinking about this, Dong Qing felt embarrassed. She had just enjoyed his medicinal soup, and now she was so ruthlessly refusing him and misunderstanding his intentions, which was really embarrassing.
"Wait a moment! I didn't say I wouldn't go! I just said I need to review my lessons... Of course, I can review them when we get back." Dong Qing tried to make amends.
"Then hurry up. Do you need to change clothes?"
Lin Yihang was puzzled. This woman was really fickle. Just a moment ago, she seemed to clearly mean she wouldn't go!
"No need."
Dong Qing agreed and tidied up her textbook.
Lin Yihang had already brought out the electric scooter, straddling it and resting his feet on the ground. He turned to look at Dong Qing and patted the seat.
"Get on! Don't ride your bicycle; it's too slow and makes you look low-class."
"..." Dong Qing was speechless. When did riding an electric scooter become more prestigious than riding a bicycle? This guy's thinking was really bizarre!
Rolling her eyes, she didn't bother to argue. Riding a bicycle behind his electric scooter would indeed be tiring. She straddled the scooter with her long legs.
After a moment of hesitation, she didn't have the courage to grab Lin Yihang's back and instead held onto the back of the scooter.
Lin Yihang saw her small gesture clearly and smiled slightly.
"Hold on tight, we're off!"
"Okay!" Dong Qing nodded, indicating that she was holding on.
Lin Yihang suddenly accelerated.
"Ah!"
The scooter lurched forward, and Dong Qing almost fell off, letting out a scream. Her body swayed, and her hands instinctively grabbed Lin Yihang's waist... it was the safest position.
"Ha ha ha..."
Lin Yihang laughed loudly as the scooter steadied.
"Annoying!"
Dong Qing muttered, but her hands didn't let go of Lin Yihang's waist.
Safety first when riding.
It was late spring, early summer, and the afternoon sun was warm. The intoxicating warm breeze brushed past, carrying the scent of the man in front of her. Dong Qing's heart beat faster than usual.
This was probably the first time... sitting behind a boy of her age on an electric scooter.
The last time, Dong Qing had ridden her bicycle with Lin Yihang. This time, Lin Yihang was riding the electric scooter with Dong Qing.
Dong Qing couldn't remember when, but she had once seen a picture in a magazine. On a tree-lined road, the sparse sunlight shone through. A boy was riding a bicycle, carrying a girl, their youthful faces harmonious and beautiful.
This picture had been etched in Dong Qing's mind, and she found it incredibly beautiful.
Just thinking about how she and Lin Yihang were reenacting that scene made her heart race.
My heart is racing, but it's not for Lin Yihang; it's for the longing and fantasy in my heart.
Realizing her heart was racing, Dong Qing was initially stunned, but then she found an excuse to comfort herself.
Lin Yihang's appearance was actually quite good. He was just previously too thin and didn't look very handsome. Recently, after physical training, his body had gained a rugged charm, and his face had become more angular and full of youthful vigor.
Dong Qing, on the other hand, was a beauty that anyone would praise.
The young couple riding together naturally drew admiring glances from passersby.
Being young is great!
Youth is beautiful!
Their natural behavior perfectly embodied this.
They rode naturally, unaware that just a moment ago, Yang Tingting and Lu Man had walked out of a store, each holding a shopping bag, chatting and laughing.
"That... isn't that Lin Yihang? And the one behind him is Dong Qing?" Lu Man looked up, her smile freezing.
"Hmm?" Yang Tingting looked up, surprised. "How did they end up together? Could it be that the rumors at school are true?"
