Chapter 0097: Unconscious Habit

"Sure." Lin Yi had just broken through the first level of the Xuanyuan Dragon Slaying Technique. Although he couldn't practice the second level without the incantation, the heavy burden that had been weighing on his heart for years was finally lifted, and his mood was still quite good.

Chen Yushu took three bowls from the sterilizer, and Lin Yi quickly served three bowls of porridge. He looked at the dining table and ultimately sat next to Chen Yushu. Although Chen Yushu was a bit mischievous, Lin Yi felt she was easier to get along with than Miss Chu. Moreover, they shared a common secret, even though it was a misunderstanding, it had brought them closer.

Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu were very composed while drinking their porridge, but Lin Yi didn't care about such formalities. Although he had systematically learned dining etiquette, he was too lazy to follow them at home. Back when he was fighting in the African war zone, time was precious, and there was no time for such formalities. Even the female members would finish their meals in a few bites, or else the enemy's rocket launcher might come from any direction.

"Eating so fast, you might choke." Chu Mengyao watched as Lin Yi finished two bowls and walked back to his room, and she pouted in annoyance.

She and Chen Yushu hadn't even finished their bowls; they had only drunk a little more than half.

"Boys eat fast." Chen Yushu didn't mind: "My brother eats just as fast when he comes home."

Chu Mengyao nodded, understanding that the military had strict rules. How could you eat so slowly in a war zone? But Lin Yi had never been in the military, so why did he eat so fast?

Lin Yi didn't have time to listen to the two girls comment on his eating speed. He was thinking about when to deliver the Chinese medicine he had prepared for Yang Huaijun.

Lin Yi originally planned to deliver it today, but since Chen Yushu asked him to accompany them shopping, he couldn't go. Fine, he would wait until he had time. After all, Yang Huaijun wouldn't die anytime soon, and the pain-relief formula he had given him would keep him from suffering too much.

Back in his room, Lin Yi took out the bank card given to him by Uncle Fu. He planned to buy a laptop, which would make it much easier to look up information. Many medical books could be downloaded online, so he wouldn't have to go to the bookstore to search for them.

Before leaving, Lin Yi changed the dressing on his leg wound, applying a layer of the healing medicine he had ground up the day before. He wouldn't need to go to the hospital to change the dressing today. The fierce nurse from yesterday had really made him uncomfortable, and his healing medicine was much more effective than the ordinary ointment from the hospital.

He looked around and saw nothing else to bring. Lin Yi left his room and saw that Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu had already dressed up. They were wearing identical dresses, with similar hairstyles and carrying the same bags, looking like twin flowers.

Their outfits were clearly more vibrant than when they went to school, probably because there were too many "flies" at school, so they kept a low profile. But now it was the weekend, and they were going shopping, so they didn't need to be so reserved.

"Hey? You're wearing that?" Chen Yushu pointed at Lin Yi's school uniform, her mouth wide open in surprise. She had seen him eat and go back to his room, thinking he would change clothes, but he came out still wearing his school uniform.

"Is there anything wrong with it?" Lin Yi thought the school uniform was quite good, with excellent quality. It was no wonder it was from the best high school in the city, even surpassing many high-end brands.

"Do you think your outfit matches ours?" Chen Yushu covered her mouth and laughed, looking at Lin Yi's matter-of-fact expression.

However, Chu Mengyao thought of something else: "Lin Yi, besides the school uniform, didn't Uncle Fu give you any other clothes?"

"No." Lin Yi shook his head: "And the clothes I wore when I came here."

"When you came here?" Chu Mengyao immediately remembered Lin Yi's appearance at the time... a white, yellowed tank top... and dirty, torn pants. Just thinking about it made her dizzy: "Forget it, you can wear this. Later, you can buy two decent outfits. Even a follower needs to look presentable!"

Chu Mengyao decided to buy him two outfits herself. Although this outfit was a bit strange, it was still better than his own.

"Okay, I'll follow you from a distance, so no one will know we're together." Lin Yi nodded understandingly.

"..." Chu Mengyao's face stiffened. Who asked you to follow from a distance? If we go out together, we go out together. If you follow from a distance, what's the point? However, her reserved personality prevented her from saying this. For some reason, ever since Lin Yi entered her life, everything related to him became a mess, causing her endless frustration.

Leaving the villa, Lin Yi didn't see Uncle Fu's Bentley. Just as he was puzzled, he saw Chu Mengyao pick up a remote control and open the garage door. Inside was an Audi S5, known as the A5 in China, a bit more low-key than the R8.

Lin Yi didn't expect Chu Mengyao to have her own car. He had always seen Uncle Fu driving her, so he never thought she could drive.

"You drive." Chu Mengyao threw a set of keys into Lin Yi's hand.

"Me? I don't have a driver's license..." Lin Yi had always driven without a license, but that was only for missions or killing. Driving without a license was a minor issue...

Chu Mengyao frowned at Lin Yi's words: "Have Uncle Fu get you one. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient to accompany us shopping in the future."

"Hehe, Uncle Fu is already processing it, but he hasn't brought it back yet." Lin Yi smiled faintly. Chu Mengyao had unconsciously accepted his presence, unlike the intense resistance she showed a few days ago. Mentioning the future indicated that her resistance wasn't as strong.

"Then you sit in the back, and I'll drive." Chu Mengyao pointed to the back seat and said to Lin Yi.

The S5 was a single-row sports car, and the back seat could only be accessed from the front, which was a bit inconvenient. However, with Lin Yi's agility, it was no problem. He easily pushed the front seat and jumped in.

Chu Mengyao didn't say much more, sitting in the driver's seat. Chen Yushu sat beside her. It was clear that they weren't the type of rich second-generation who liked to speed. They followed traffic rules, fastened their seat belts, and Chu Mengyao started the car, slowly driving out of the villa complex...
