The Most Random System

Chen Yu Ying sighed, hiding her smile within it.

Can’t escape persecuting Jesus either, huh.

Today is another day of learning inhuman knowledge.

The two arrived at the entrance of Pingjiang Middle School.

Although they had avoided the crowds, the school entrance was still packed with people.

Parents and teachers from various schools were calling out for students at the entrance.

"I’ll ask Tianming where we’re meeting," Lin Li took out his phone.

Later, they would eat dinner with the school, and then go directly back to school for evening self-study after dinner, so having family pick them up was clearly unnecessary, hence they would return with the school.

"This way," Lin Li quickly got the answer and took Chen Yu Ying to the gathering place for Nansang uniforms to register with the supervising teacher.

"Alright, wait here for now. There are too many vehicles, and the bus can’t get in," the supervising teacher explained the situation.

Lin Li and Chen Yu Ying sat on the edge of the flower bed by the roadside to wait.

"Hey? Buddy?"

Hearing someone seemingly calling him, Lin Li turned around and found it was the guy who sat next to him in the exam hall.

"Hm? What’s up?" Lin Li asked.

"Aren’t you from Nan Second Middle School? Isn’t everyone here from South First Middle School?"

The other guy looked puzzled at the uniform logos behind Lin Li.

"Isn’t it obvious? Because my girlfriend is from South First Middle School," Lin Li pointed at Chen Yu Ying.

Thinking Lin Li was making new friends, Chen Yu Ying nodded, as a way of greeting.

"But your school bus is about to leave," the guy pointed at a nearby bus, indeed of the Nansang Second Middle School students, "Aren’t you going to get on?"

Although she couldn’t figure out the situation, Chen Yu Ying watched Lin Li amusingly.

"True, seems like I have to go back," Lin Li nodded, "See you later at Nansang."

With that, Lin Li headed toward the Nan Second Middle School bus.

Halfway there, he turned around to find Chen Yu Ying and the guy both watching him.

The guy even waved at him with a smile.

"Bro, aren’t you hurrying to meet your school’s group?" Lin Li asked.

"No rush on my side, I figured this was fate in a fleeting encounter, so I’ll watch you get on the bus first," the guy smiled.

Lin Li looked at the guy and nodded.

So, in the guy’s view...

He saw Lin Li walk forward and start whispering with a student beside the Nansang Second Middle School bus door. Then, that second middle student sighed, nodded, and finally took Lin Li onto the bus together.

Guy: "..."

After a while, the curtain on the bus was pulled open a crack, and two eyes peeped through it. When they noticed he hadn’t left, they quickly closed it again.

Open, damn, still haven’t left, close.

Open, damn, still haven’t left, close.

Guy: "..."

Do I really look like an idiot?

Chen Yu Ying was already covering her mouth, laughing quietly.

But in the end, the guy gave an approving thumbs-up towards the window, "Buddy, I give up, you’re impressive."

...

"Why insist you’re from the second middle school? Why didn’t you just tell the truth about your real school?"

On the Nansang Middle School bus, after finding out from Lin Li about his interaction with the guy, Chen Yu Ying curiously and confusedly asked:

"You didn’t do anything shady using your school name, why not just admit it?"

"You don’t understand, this is a guy’s sense of competitiveness," Lin Li explained with a smile.

Chen Yu Ying seemed to understand but didn’t care much.

Lin Li turned around to see Chen Tianming, who was really sitting with Yao Qiaoqiao, and considered taking a photo to provoke Qin Zeyu.

Maybe in a fit of rage, Ze Yu would take Tianming to the rooftop for a dramatic farewell?

That might at least give us a three-day break to recover emotionally and have some fun.

Forget it, sneaky photos aren’t okay.

Like how Chen Yu Ying is sneakily filming me now.

She just hits a bit hard, it hurts.

"What are you doing?"

"Giving you a massage."

"Alright."

In the corner.

Wang Yuezhi looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, gulping down a mouthful of 60-degree hot water, feeling calm inside.

Hahaha.

I should be roaming the rivers and lakes~ drinking murky wine~ watching the worries in a hundred-flower place in a drunken dream~

Hahaha.

Don’t leave the wild wandering outside the Great Wall~ let the beloved wait~ the pain in dreams is high like a few-story building~

Hahaha!!

If you didn’t come properly with me, then keep it up, damn it! Why are you sitting right in front of me, TAT!!!

...

Arriving at the pre-booked buffet restaurant, everyone got off the bus and entered in an orderly fashion.

The reception was counting people and letting them in.

"Hello, sister," Lin Li, bored, looked at the staff member beside him and greeted.

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

The staff politely asked, initially intending to be even nicer when noticing he was a handsome guy, but then saw a pretty girl beside him who seemed protective and thought better of it.

"Just wondering, if we have a pet, can we bring it in?" Lin Li asked.

"Huh? A pet? What kind of pet specifically?"

The server looked around Lin Li and didn’t see any large pets, so she asked.

Lin Li took out a rope from his pocket, turned, and tossed it to Chen Tianming, whispering, "Tianming, quick, put the rope around your neck, pretend to be a pet, and I’ll get the money from the teacher, we split it seventy-thirty!"

Wait staff and Chen Tianming: "?"

Is Lin Li even human?

"Are you nuts?" Chen Tianming grabbed the rope, gave him the finger, and laughed, "Not doing it!"

"Fifty-fifty split! I’ll give you a bigger share, how about that?" Lin Li gritted his teeth, painfully yielding.

Chen Tianming: "(;☉_☉)?"

"Hold on."

Chen Tianming took a deep breath, started calmly calculating with his fingers, and finally asked Lin Li, "Lin Li, come here, tell your buddy, what exactly is ’fifty-fifty split is a bigger share for me’."

Lin Li laughed mischievously.

Chen Tianming chuckled exasperatingly, "So, the ’seventy-thirty split’ you just mentioned, the seventy percent was for you???

Damn, you want me to act like a dog while you take the big cut; Lin Li, a person like you is as good as dead on a battlefield, you know that? Because someone as stingy as you would never entrust his back to a comrade, stepping out equals a funeral, you get it?"

Lin Li laughed out loud.

"Alright then, seventy-thirty, you take the seventy, okay?"

"Buzz off, not doing it!"

Lin Li regretfully looked at the staff, "Nothing, sister, you go ahead, my pet’s already dead."

The staff left with a polite smile.

She understood.

Perhaps the pretty girl beside this handsome guy was not guarding her food but warning herself.

So, she was suppressing evil spirits at the risk of her life?

Girl, your sacrifice!

...

Chen Yu Ying nobly ate her porridge.

The quality of this buffet couldn’t be considered high, the tone more like self-served box meals, with those unlimited dishes being common household cooking.

And the slightly more valuable dishes were either strictly limited or quickly taken and not refilled.

The overall experience was very average.

But since the school was paying and it wasn’t that bad, there wasn’t much to complain about.

"Next time, ’three people and a dog’ should go to a better buffet," Lin Li suggested, watching Chen Yu Ying who was drinking porridge.

"I’m up for it, whether it’s before or after final exams," Chen Yu Ying nodded.

"We’ll see then."

After dinner, everyone took the bus directly back to school.

By the time they returned, it was already six twenty, and evening self-study had already started twenty minutes ago, so everyone quietly returned to their respective classes.

Grade 10, Class 4.

Lin Li just sat down.

"Lin Li, let me quiz you, do you know what song Emperor Qin Shi Huang played for laborers when building the Great Wall?" Bai Bufan popped his head over.

"You tell me," Lin Li glanced at him.

Bai Bufan: "La la la la la la la la~ Coolie coolie coolie coolie~ La la la la la la la la~ Shouting to the heavens and the earth~ This song is to honor the emperor~ Expressing a hint of the people’s admiration~ We’ll always support you~ Come watch my coolie performance..."

Too dense.

No wonder it’s Bai Bufan, back without a single human word to hear.

Lin Li: "Bufan, ’three people and a dog’ are planning to have a super awesome buffet, guess who’s not invited?"

Bai Bufan felt a chill hearing the first part and was ready to kneel, but after hearing the complete sentence, he was relieved.

Frightened himself for no reason.

Almost thought Lin Li wouldn’t invite him.

Good thing the one not invited is a person, and I’m immediately excluded.
