Chapter 186 - Sold Out and Closing
“Then do you wanna have barbeque at Tang Yin’s house or do you wanna have it now?” Lin Yi asked.
“Okay… Tang Yin’s house……” Xiaobo muttered.
Twelfth graders went through exams almost every day, and just the mornings alone were half-filled with quizzes. Lin Yi may have entered this world as a bodyguard on a mission, the casual, laid back att.i.tude he approached everything with had engulfed him- he was now a part of the school, the cla.s.s, and most importantly, he was now his age…
He felt a lot younger now, and had started to use the perspective typical of a student his age. He grew to like chatting and bulls.h.i.+ting with his newly made bro, joking around with pretty girls…
He grew to like the school, the cla.s.s, and… Tang Yin- the cute, prideful girl who got mad easily… But how long would all of that last?
Was it a few days, or a few months before he returned to his original life, losing everything he had right now?
Having experienced the joys and pleasantries of life, Lin Yi found himself looking back at his old life in disdain and exhaustion… There was nothing but anxiety and killing there, no pa.s.sion, joys, or pleasantries whatsoever, just numbness whenever he confronted an enemy.
Perhaps it was time to have a talk with his old man? Perhaps this was the life his direction should be headed in?
Lin Yi and Xiaobo left the cla.s.sroom at noon, having been kept in with the other students of cla.s.s five because of the quiz they just had. Most of the other students had left the building already.
Mengyao and Yushu went to the second floor of the cafeteria, as usual, not minding the late release too much- they didn’t need to queue upstairs anyway.
The food street, on the other hand, was bustling with tenth and eleventh graders, who had much more leisure time than the twelfth graders under constant stress.
The food here wasn’t particularly clean, nor was it particularly tasty, but it was much better than what the school canteen had in both quality and price.
Mrs. Tang’s barbeque stand was extraordinarily packed today, completely surrounded by customers. That was how things were in this school- both good and bad news spread like wildfire, as could be seen from the whole love letter incident with Tang YIn.
It was the same thing with the barbeque stand- the first students falling in love with the food and aroma only attracted more customers, resulting in a very filled stand. After all, more customers meant better food.
As excited as Mrs. Tang was, she found the popularity a bit too much for her to handle- the ingredients would run out before noon. She probably had to go back home for more.
“Still wanna go?” Lin Yi said with a bitter smile at Xiaobo. “It’s so packed- we can’t really go and ask Tang Yin about going to her house anymore. You think Tang Yin’s gonna be able to answer?”
Xiaobo understood what Lin Yi was saying- Tang Yin was afraid of people suspecting her relations.h.i.+p with Lin Yi in the first place, and it wasn’t hard to imagine what sort of scenario would take place if they went up and asked something like that. The worst case scenario would be Tang Yin getting p.i.s.sed off at the situation they pushed her in and call off the entire weekend plan.
“Then…… Should we wait for a while?” Xiaobo asked after a pause.
“Let’s go to the bookstore a bit- I wanna buy something.” Lin Yi nodded. “We’ll come back later, when there’s less people.”
