Chapter 8 - MAINLINE QUEST REWARD (2/2)
“It’s up to you. Anyway, this kind of thing should happen frequently in the future. You’d better find a better reason.” The system finally reminds him that this will be normal in the future and judging from tonight it is true.
“Ah! What should I tell my parents? Lin Rui, who stood up from the ground, was distressed to think about it, and then walked out quickly.

On the dark street, a slightly skinny man slowly headed for the main road. Now he needed to take a taxi home.
……
The next morning, while Lin Rui was still sleeping in bed, his parents had found out how late he had come back last night.
Bang bang bang.
“Jackson, are you awake?” Lin Rui’s parents discussed and his mother came up to prepare for a light talk with him about coming back so late last night.
“Whoo-ah- Mom? Ah! Wait!” Lin Rui, who was awakened by the knock at the door, was confused and then woke up and responded quickly. He didn’t want his mother to come in and see the wound on his face, so he had to hide it.
Lin Rui’s mother, who heard her son’s voice, didn’t knock on the door again and waited quietly outside and gave her son full privacy.
“Mom! You can come in.” After a rustle, Lin Rui’s voice came from the room.
!
“Jackson, you were late last night… Well, what’s wrong with you?” Mary, who pushed the door in, was about to ask Lin Rui about his late return last night, but when she saw what Lin Rui looked like, she turned her head.
At this time, Lin Rui wore a plush cap over his head, covering the upper half of his face, and a mask under it, leaving just one pair of eyes outside.
“Whoa!! Cough! It’s all right, just a little cold!” Lin Rui coughed twice and came back with a low voice.
“Oh, have you caught a cold? Is it serious?” Hearing her son’s words, Mary hurried up and wanted to see it, forgetting for a moment what she was going to ask when she came in.
“Mom, it’s not serious! It’s all right. I just wear a mask because I’m worried about infection.” With a wave, Lin Rui answered nervously.
“By the way, I’m going to be late for cla.s.s, so I’ll go down first.” Without giving his Mom more opportunities to talk, Lin Rui has rushed downstairs.
Ten minutes later, Lin Rui was fully armed on his bicycle. And beside him is Tom, Lin Rui’s mother specifically called Tom to accompany him to school.
“Mom, I am going to school!” Wearing a mask, Lin Rui waved to her worried mother standing at the door, then cycled out of the yard, followed by Tom.
“Hey! Jackson, what’s wrong with you? Yesterday you were a bit weird. Today you are even weirder. I don’t believe that you have caught a cold.” On the way to school, Tom approached Lin Rui and asked in a low voice.
“Oh! Actually, I was injured, look!” Knowing that he couldn’t hide from Tom, Lin Rui unveiled the mask for Tom to see the injury on his face.
“What happened? Who beat you? I heard you came home late last night!” Tom was surprised to see the two obvious fist marks on Lin Rui’s face.
“That’s right! Don’t talk to my mother about it!”
“Don’t worry, from childhood to adulthood, which time did I expose your secret?”
“Oh! As expected of my best friend!”
“But did you win?”
Lin Rui: “…”
“Of course I won!”
“That’s Good!”
