Chapter 800: Cat Food Is Fine
The opening ceremony was supposed to end at 10:30am, but the head teachers speech went on for too long and it didnt end until 11:00.
The parent-teacher meeting for cla.s.s 3-3 was set to start at 2:00pm and both Auntie Ren and my dad will be there. What was special was the one coming for the cla.s.s leader wasnt going to be her aunt.
The cla.s.s leaders mother took a vacation from her vaccine research inst.i.tute specifically to fly back from Shanghai and partic.i.p.ate in the parent-teacher meeting.
Her daughter was now in her third year and her son was in his second year, so she had to come back and learn about her kids situation from the teachers no matter how busy she was.
Im not sure if she was going to stay a few more days or leave the same day the parent-teacher meeting ends. The cla.s.s leader must be extremely happen her mother is coming back, because she can only drop her sense of responsibility and actually act like a childish 14 year old girl in front of her parents.
To be honest, I really wanted to meet the cla.s.s leaders mother once. Her mother left a lasting impression on me from the family photo I saw in the cla.s.s leaders room.
Her beauty was on the same level as a famous actress. Even if you used a bad camera, you cant hide her natural elegance and beauty. Its hard to believe that the cla.s.s leaders mother is a vaccine researcher who has many important responsibilities.
I dont have a time machines, so I cant see what the cla.s.s leader looks like in the future, but looking at her mom will have the same results. Even if they dont look completely identical, they will still look similar. I really wanted to be able to take a look at a mature version of Shu Sha.
So after the opening ceremony, I didnt rush home like the other students, but stayed on the playground and played basketball with Liu HuaiShui and others.
We were only casually shooting hoops, so there wasnt any chance of me getting a heart attack. Also, I could currently handle 3 minutes of intense exercise which was enough for me to go on the attack for a layup.
Xiao Qin followed me around like she was my tail and watched me play basketball, but she stayed silent the whole time (because there were boys) and everyone was already used to it.
Ye Lin. Liu HuaiShui said to me while holding a basketball with both hands, I came up with a mid-air drift rotating fadeaway jump shot over the summer, do you want to try defending me?
Nah, it sounds like a bad move, just try not to injure yourself.
A tall basketball fan that I didnt know was next to me and curious about Liu HuaiShuis invention, so the two of them began to play each other. Liu HuaiShuis shot was really tricky, but I didnt see the drift, nor the rotation, only the fadeaway jump shot was true.
Ah, I didnt do it properly, lets do it again.
It looks like Liu HuaiShui wasnt going to stop until he injures himself.
School hadnt opened officially yet, so the school cafeteria wasnt open yet. I brought Xiao Qin to the food street to eat seafood fried rice.
Its delicious~()/~ Xiao Qin said contently after eating a big bowl of seafood fried rice.
When it came to pay the bill, Xiao Qin fought to pay. Since I didnt have any change, the owner took Xiao Qins money so she paid for my meal.
If you didnt take out change, the owner would have taken my money. I complained to Xiao Qin when we left the store, I wanted to split up my bills to get some change.
If you want change, I have some here and I could give it to you Xiao Qin said sincerely while holding her purse.
Hey, what are you doing? Are you trying to treat me to more meals and slowly pay me back because I promised to buy you a new phone? I havent even bought you a phone yet.
Ahhh, I got caught.
Xiao Qin tapped her head gently while sticking out her tongue at me to act cute.
I remember Auntie Ren reduced your allowance as a punishment because she found out you were in contact with your dad, right? Show me how much you have left in your purse currently.
Xiao Qin unzipped her purse, held it up in front of her and let me look.
She said while slightly blus.h.i.+ng: Ye Lin cla.s.smate is seeing my embarra.s.sing insides
Im looking insider your purse, not inside you! Are you embarra.s.sed because you dont have a lot of money left inside?
I took a quick glimpse and there was only about 70 left. Since our meal earlier cost about 30, Xiao Qin was only carrying around 100.
The prices of everything is so high nowadays even elementary school students carry around 4-500, so its kind of sad a middle school student only has 100.
What, did Auntie Ren reduce your allowance by that much? I think that amount would get spent easily.
My mom gives me a reasonable amount, about the same as the amount Winnie receives. Xiao Qin put away her almost empty purse, I spent most of my allowance to buy manga tutorials and manga tools, its so expensive
Recently, I bought a lecture book from a j.a.panese mangaka, the Hayas.h.i.+ Hikaru insert Kadomaru Tsubura series. One book cost about 30, theres over ten books, so I spent a lot of money
Hey, I think it was Little Smart who recommend it to you. Please note the author is Hayas.h.i.+ Hikaru AND Kadomaru Tsubura. Please dont read out the cross, it just means they collaborated on the book together.
Ive also been continuing to publish Cthulhu Also Wants Love on u17. Although some people are envious of my artistic skills and called it sinister, but I will keep going.
In order to raise my efficiency and release once a week, I asked my mom to buy me a digital tablet. My mom agreed, but asked me to pay half of it with my allowance, then she will pay the other half. So now I dont have much left
Auntie Rens method is right. A lot of parents spend a lot of money to buy a piano, guitar, treadmill, etc but it turns out their child only wanted in the spur of the moment and stopped using it after a few times, leaving it in a corner to collect dust.
If you ask your child to use their allowance to pay for a part of it, then they will learn to cherish it. They wouldnt ask you to buy something unless they actually wanted it.
Oh, that means you already have a tablet?
Not yet. Xiao Qin looked down in disappointment and kicked a nearby pebble, I have to wait until next month to save up enough to buy an entry level tablet. Currently, Im still drawing with a dip pen, then scanning it onto my computer
I laughed and said: Should I sponsor you a bit? That way you can use your tablet earlier.
Its not that I get a lot of allowance (Shu Zhe gets more allowance money than me from his sister), but that I dont treat Xiao Qin as an outsider. Its not a big deal even if I had to use my bank card to buy Xiao Qin a tablet since were going to become a family eventually.
No, please dont Xiao Qin rejected me, Im already embarra.s.sed that youre going to buy me a phone, Ill pay for it with my body later
What, what did you say at the end? Say it a bit louder, I couldnt hear you.
I I didnt say anything Xiao Qin looked away, I said when Winnie was working as my a.s.sistant, she heard I was going to buy a tablet, so she volunteered to help me out with her own allowance. I was touched but I didnt agree
Winnie was always a great friend. She would always try to do her best to help her friends achieve their dreams. Even if she was giving Xiao Qin money she earned from Ai Mi, but what difference does it make.
I noticed Xiao Qin wasnt going to accept any help, so I didnt really force her. I told her there was no need for her to try and pay for me when she only had 70 left.
You still have money left in your meal card, right? Tell me if you dont have any money left for food, dont starve yourself, okay?
Got it. Xiao Qin whispered, According to my calculations, my allowance should be enough to use until next month. If its not enough, I will take some from the money saved to buy the tablet. I wont let myself go hungry, because if Im malnourished, Ye Lin cla.s.smate wont even be satisfied with the taste of my body in the future
Please dont say tasting you body again. If you dont say any dirty words for a week, Ill give you a gold star.
Al-alright. Xiao Qin quickly agreed, Ill always be fed if Im with Ye Lin cla.s.smate. Even if Im in desperate straits, Ill beg Ye Lin cla.s.smate for food
Stop making it sound like youre my pet.
Xiao Qin continued, Just give me cat food, you dont even have to add milk. Ye Lin cla.s.smates milk is very precious
I hope youre talking about the milk you keep in the fridge. If not, Im going to have to deduct stars
Xiao Qin stopped joking around after I threatened to deduct stars from her. She never really asked why I stayed around school and didnt go home. It seems she was happy as long as she could stay beside me.
After the meal, I walked slowly with Xiao Qin back towards the entrance of the school. I felt like I could really explain the feeling of wanting to see the cla.s.s leaders mother well to Xiao Qin.
As I was worrying about it, I saw the cla.s.s leader walk out from the school building. The adult woman next to her was clearly talking to the cla.s.s leader, but she was taking large strides and it took the cla.s.s leader a lot of effort to keep up.
