Chapter 572: Legal Obligation
I changed the topic in order to stop the fight between Xiao Qin and Ai Mi.
“Ai Mi, do you like climbing mountains? Our cla.s.s is going to have an outing next week and I could bring you along if you want.”
Although the cla.s.s leader didn’t say we were allowed to bring family members, but the special education school has received a lot of help from Peng TouSi. So if Peng TouSi wants his little master to go there for the day, she will definitely be welcomed, right?
And if they can please Ai Mi, they will receive more donations in the future will only get. The school was originally aided by Ai Mi’s biological father, John. It’s a good thing for the daughter to inherit her father’s business.
“I’m not going.” Ai Mi pouted, “The UV rays are stronger on top of mountains, my skin can’t stand it. I also have a full schedule next week, so I don’t have any free time.”
I heard from my dad that UV rays increase by 10% for every 1,000 meters above sea level. Cui Song Mountain was only about 400 meters high, so the UV rays would only increase by at most 5%. I think the main reason was because she didn’t have any time.
Ai Mi became even more jealous when she found out my cla.s.smates, including Xiao Qin, were going on an outing some time next week.
“Manservant… brother, you can’t go, you have to accompany me on set that day.”
“Uh, I don’t think that would be good.” I scratched my head, “I’m still a PE committee member of cla.s.s 2-3, so I should be helping the cla.s.s leader maintain order. If there’s any danger, I’m pretty strong, so I can help in emergencies.”
“That’s right.” Xiao Qin chimed in, “If the cla.s.s leader gets struck on the head by a rock, or drowns in a flood, or gets buried in a landslide, Ye Lin cla.s.smate has to save her.”
Wow, how much do you hate the cla.s.s leader? How many bad things did she do to suffer the wrath of the heavens?
“And if Ye Lin cla.s.smate doesn’t go to the outing, then I won’t go either.” Xiao Qin decided, “I’ll go to the set along with Ye Lin cla.s.smate to cheer on Ai Mi.”
Ai Mi’s getting p.i.s.sed. She’s going to have to work hard and act as you cling onto my arms and eat cotton candy while watching her.
After closing her eyes and thinking carefully, Ai Mi grunted and said:
“You guys don’t have to come, just go to your outing. Besides, China is number one in the world for the most natural and man-made disasters, I hope you don’t run into any earthquakes, typhoons, or volcanic eruptions.”
Eh, it looks like you and Xiao Qin are the same types, the types who curse whatever you don’t like. Also, the level of your natural disasters are several times greater than Xiao Qin’s. The level of disasters Xiao Qin called for were only towards single targets or at most wipes out a small group of people. The level of disasters you called for would destroy a city with even the potential to destroy the world.
“By the way, I remember Winnie is also a PE committee member.”
Ai Mi calmed down slightly and asked.
“Yeah.” I nodded, “Our cla.s.s has two PE committee members. I’m the male one and Winnie is the female one.”
“I don’t need you to tell me that you’re male and she’s female.” Ai Mi looked at me with contempt.
Ai Mi then gasped. “In that case, you can move with Winnie on your outing. It would be better for the male and female committee members to move together.”
So you want Winnie to monitor me? Would she report to you every time she sees me and Xiao Qin do anything suspicious? It looks like that strong desire for control was definitely inherited from Ai ShuQiao.
“No.” Xiao Qin protested, “Ye Lin cla.s.smate has to be with me. Whoever dares to interfere with us, will be tied up by the righteous mountain G.o.d and thrown into the river.”
Are you referring to the mountain G.o.d or the triads?
At this time, Xiao Qin’s phone rang.
“h.e.l.lo, oh, it’s the cla.s.s leader, what can I do for you.”
Xiao Qin walked in front of the window to take the call. She only cared about the appearance when she was buying her phone, that’s why even the signal was average at best. That’s why she developed a habit of walking to a window when picking up the phone indoors.
Before Xiao Qin walked away, the cla.s.s leader’s voice could be heard coming out of the speakers.
“It’s nothing important. It’s just our cla.s.s was planning a field trip, I let Ye Lin notify you, but I’m afraid he forgot…”
I have no idea what Xiao Qin and the cla.s.s leader talked about after that.
Ai Mi, who was sitting on the sofa, saw my attention was drawn away and she stretched out a leg and kicked my b.u.t.t from behind with discontent.
“What’s there to look at when someone’s talking on the phone, stay with me.”
I really don’t understand why Ai Mi was fighting with Xiao Qin, but I turned back to her and asked with a smile.
“What do you want to talk about, has filming been hard lately.”
“Don’t mention the filming.” Ai Mi said angrily, “The UV rays are so strong right now, but the director keeps shooting outdoor scenes. It’s obvious he has a grudge against me, do you know how much sunscreen I have to use every day?”
Then she rolled her eyes and had a sly smile on her face. She began to shake the small foot she used to attack me.
“Starting tomorrow, come see me every morning to help me apply sunscreen.”
When she saw me hesitate for a moment, Ai Mi was immediately dissatisfied: “You’re not even willing to perform such an easy task. Were you lying when you said you loved me?”
I don’t want the vows I made before to be called a lie.
“Well… I am used to getting up early to exercise, so it’s not a problem stop by to help you apply sunscreen. But it’s just the back area where you need my help right, the rest you can apply yourself?.”
“Who said that.” Ai Mi raised her brows, “Filming is already very hard, so how can I waste my energy on trivial things like applying sunscreen, of course it’s all your responsibility.”
I said awkwardly, “Well, then only the exposed skin needs to be coated.”
The face and arms are fine, but it would be bad if I had to touch the thighs or legs.
“No cutting corners.” Ai Mi was being unreasonable, “The UV rays so strong, what if I was killed by UV rays? Are you not going to regret it? Of course you have to apply sunscreen over my whole body without missing a single spot.”
Hey, it’s not like you’re shooting a nude scene outdoors, do you need to soak yourself in sunscreen? Besides, you’re basically asking your brother to give you a nude ma.s.sage.
“Hmph, I had a specialized maid to help me apply sunscreen before, but they were all awful and I kicked them out.”
It’s more like you’re hard to please, right? You also kicked out a lot of costume designers and make-up artists, even Su Qiao, who was an extra actor at the time, was almost kicked out by you too.
“So finally, I had to leave the job of applying sunscreen to Peng TouSi…”
Although Peng TouSi was a man, he was super gay. There was also a strange “master/servant – father/daughter” relationship between Ai Mi and Peng TouSi. Ai Mi would sometimes even let him wait on her during her bath, so I didn’t feel it was inappropriate.
“But you already know the skin on Peng TouSi’s hands are really rough. Even if he uses his pinky finger to apply sunscreen, I’m still hurt from time to time, so from now on it’s your turn to do it.”
“Stop saying it in a matter of fact tone, Peng TouSi is gay, but I’m not. If I apply sunscreen to you in that way, then…”
“Then what?” Ai Mi tilted her head and looked at me with interest, as if she was looking forward to my next words.
“Then nothing, but it’s still not appropriate.”
“Tsk, can’t even agree to a simple request like applying sunscreen. As expected, you’re a brother who only pays lip service…”
“I got it.” I had a bright idea and clapped my hands and shouted, “There are obviously more suitable candidates than me, you could just let Winnie help you apply sunscreen. She’s a money-grubber, so as long as you give her a little reward, she will definitely get up early every day to work for you.”
“Hmph, a brother who evades his responsibilities.” Ai Mi leaned on her cheeks to sulk.
“I… I also want sunscreen.” After finishing the phone call with the cla.s.s leader, Xiao Qin, who heard the last two sentences of conversation between Ai Mi and me, darted towards me.
I pressed her head to stop her from getting any closer, while saying, “Stop making trouble for me. Ai Mi, you get Winnie to apply sunscreen. Xiao Qin, you go to Auntie Ren, or let the cla.s.s leader help you.”
“No way.” Xiao Qin yelled, “Asking your boyfriend to help you apply sunscreen in the summer is natural. You can even say it’s a boyfriend’s legal obligation!”
Ai Mi said angrily, “It is the brother’s legal obligation to apply sunscreen on his sister.”
Xiao Qin squinted, “There are no countries with that law. Although there are countries who say it’s s.e.xual hara.s.sment if a brother casually lays his hands on his sister.”
Ai Mi fought back, “Laws are completely unnecessary, countries can also be created whenever you want. I will definitely create a country with a law that says if a brother doesn’t fulfill the obligation of applying sunscreen on his sister, he will be sentenced to death.”
Then your country will receive a lot of applications from siscons? Maybe it is a way to make money…
“Sister Ai Mi, stop dreaming.” Xiao Qin looked down at Ai Mi with a condescending gaze, “The only way of getting a death sentence is the relationship you have with Ye Lin cla.s.smate. If you want to hate something, then hate the world for arranging your fate.”
“You…” Ai Mi looked as if she was about to cry again.
“(^__^) hehehe…” Xiao Qin laughed instead, “The lines I just said was something I thought of when designing a manga, it’s very artistic, right.”
Artistic my a.s.s, you probably copied it off of another shoujo manga.
It was getting late, but there were no signs of my dad coming home. Did he go stay at a hotel so he wouldn’t be a third wheel? What a moving moment where a dad sacrifices so much for his son.
But Auntie Ren returned home earlier than Xiao Qin expected. When she came home and found her daughter missing, she immediately called to question her: “Are you at Ye Lin’s? If you don’t come back, I’ll go there.”
