Chapter 802: Picturesque Scene
“Ye Lin cla.s.smate, I did a good deed so I can get a little star, right?”
Xiao Qin asked me after she persuaded Winnie’s parents to return to the school.
I’m not sure if it was because she was trying to act cute on purpose or she got it mixed up with the little red flower system. She called the silver stars from the star system as ‘little star’, so it goes without saying that gold stars would be a ‘big star’ for her.
I took out my phone and opened the Xiao Qin’s Stars doc.u.ment from the group and entered the first ★. (★ represents a gold star, ☆ represents a silver star, the two are exchanged at a 1:5 rate)
“You did well, so I’ll give you a gold star as a reward.”
Xiao Qin was a bit flabbergasted: “Huh, you’re being very generous. I thought I would only get a silver star… or at most two silver stars.”
I thought Xiao Qin, who turned a new leaf and began doing good deeds, was much cuter than before. I was going to each out and pat her head, but then I remembered head pats cost 1 gold star, so I forced myself to stop.
“Hmph, it’s because it’s the first time you did a good deed while considering others, so I made an exception and gave you a gold star. Although the original value was already 3 or 4 silver stars…”
“Really?” Xiao Qin was surprised, “I didn’t even say much to Winnie’s parents. All I did was pretty much cry, but it’s worth that much…”
I shook my head: “It might be easy for you, but for Winnie, it’s worth much more. It’s worth more… than a triple scoop cup of ice cream.”
I think it was an appropriate comparison for Winnie.
Xiao Qin still didn’t really understand and asked: “Then… does buying Winnie a triple scoop everyday count as a good deed? Can I use exchange an ice cream for a star?”
“No.” I rejected her, “That would be buying stars with money. Also, where would you get the money to buy the ice cream? Aren’t you already in the red this month with your allowance?”
“That’s true…” Xiao Qin sighed, “I’m now a poor childhood friend, I don’t even have the funds to do good deeds… should I go work for Ai Mi? I don’t mind wearing a maid uniform…”
“That’s right.” Xiao Qin suddenly said, “A few days ago, Qing Zi Academy had their first exams. I put in a few good words for Ai Mi in front of my uncle and helped her pa.s.s, so does that count as a good deed?”
“Um…” I hesitated a bit. I think cheating doesn’t really fall under a ‘good deed’, also it happened before I told her about the plan so we can’t really count the past.
It can’t be helped since I’m a siscon. Xiao Qin’s actions of trying to improve her relationship with Ai Mi was worth commending, so I’ll make an exception.
“I guess it can just barely count as a good deed. I said before that helping Ai Mi will reward you extra stars… so I’ll give you two gold stars. It’s just this once, you can’t bring up good deeds you’ve done in the past anymore.”
Xiao Qin saw the star doc.u.ment update on my phone. She was unable to contain her joy when she saw ★ turn into ★★★.
“I’ve already earned three large stars in only half a day! I’m only nine thousand nine hundred and ninety seven stars away from becoming Ye Lin cla.s.smate’s girlfriend again…”
“Don’t get too happy.” I said, “I’m only giving you gold stars right now as encouragement. Usually, you would only get 1 or 2 silver stars for good deeds.”
“My character is now a childhood friend shoujo catmaid who has three gold stars…”
“It looks like your character changes quite frequently. Why don’t I help you shorten it a bit, do you want to exchange the three gold stars for a hug?”
Xiao Qin’s eyes lit up: “Are you going to hug me right here? In front of your basketball friends?”
I looked at Liu HuaiShui and the others on the basketball court, then shook my head.
“I’ll only hug you when there’s no one around, but I could pat your head in public. Do you want to exchange it for three head pats?”
“I’m not exchanging it.” Xiao Qin mumbled, “You’re being sly and trying to trick me to spend all my stars so I’ll never be able to be your girlfriend again.”
“That’s true. You can exchange the first 5 gold stars you save for a phone, so you should keep these stars.”
Xiao Qin looked up at the white clouds and was deep in thought for a while.
“I’m really reluctant to spend those five stars.” Xiao Qin finally sighed, “But having Ye Lin cla.s.smate use his wages to buy me a gift is too enticing…”
“I’m not sure if this words, but when I earn nine thousand nine hundred and ninety five stars, can I return the phone in exchange for five gold stars to let me become your girlfriend?”
Xiao Qin asked cautiously.
“Huh, are you saying you don’t need your phone anymore at that time?”
Xiao Qin clenched onto the hem of her skirt and mumbled: “I want my phone, but I also want to be Ye Lin’s girlfriend. I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to wait anymore once I’m only five stars away…”
Her eyes darted around as if she was afraid I would see her as being too greedy.
“Also, once I hand in my phone and save ten thousand stars, then become Ye Lin cla.s.smate’s girlfriend…”
“I, I would then be able to act coquettishly and plead Ye Lin cla.s.smate with tears in my eyes to give the phone to me again. I think you would agree…”
In the end, you still don’t want to spend those five stars! Instead of treasuring these five stars, why not think about how you’re going to earn the other nine thousand nine hundred and ninety five stars.
“Don’t worry about it. We don’t have to make it so troublesome with the back and forth exchanges… As long as you save five stars, I’ll buy you a phone and I won’t deduct any stars. It would be treated as an additional reward, not an exchange. Are you satisfied now?”
“Thank you, you’re the best.” Xiao Qin wanted to leap into my arms.
I stuck out my hand and reminded her: “Hey, a hug costs three stars. Dear customer, are you sure you want to make the exchange?”
Xiao Qin could only stop midway and pout: “Ye Lin cla.s.smate is so sly and keeps on bullying others…”
After wasting some time outside with Xiao Qin, it was around past 1pm. Parents began to slowly trick in to school and the one who attracted the most attention was Director Cao.
It wasn’t because Director Cao was dressed strangely nor was he holding an advertis.e.m.e.nt for Battle of Jin Ling. The reason he attracted attention was because he was walking side by side to a woman in a white lab coat.
“Beautiful lady, are you sure you don’t want to film a move with me? I’m a well-known director who has made multiple top movies.”
Director Cao panted as he advertised himself.
How shameless. What top movies have you made, but it’s true you did make a bunch of small movies.
“Can you stop following me? I only b.u.mped into you at the entrance by chance, stop acting like we’re familiar with each other.”
“If you don’t film a movie with me when you have a natural G-cup, it would really be a shame… ouch.”
Director Cao was slapped on the face but he still shamelessly chased her from behind.
“Don’t leave, we can talk it over. If I make a conservative guess, your G-cup can increase DVD sales by 20%!”
Sure enough, he was trying to get her to film an AV.
“Guards, throw this d.a.m.n fatty out. Shove a shock baton up his a.s.s.”
Director Cao was quickly surrounded by 28 Middle’s security guards. After explaining for a while, Director Cao was finally able to be able to let the guards believe he was here to attend the parent-teacher meeting.
The pretty woman who got away from Director Cao walked towards me and Xiao Qin. Of course, she was the perverted female school doctor, Chen YingRan.
“Hey, isn’t this Xiao Qin and Ye Lin? We meet again. The summer break was really long.”
“h.e.l.lo sis Ying Ran…” Xiao Qin respectfully greeted Chen YingRan, it seems she looked up to her.
“Good, good, school finally started again. I couldn’t stand another day without a shota…”
Cheng YinRan mumbled to herself as she walked past me and Xiao Qin. She also felt my b.u.t.t as she pa.s.sed us.
I wanted to retaliated, but it was embarra.s.sing to admit I was molested in front of Xiao Qin and other parents. Also, if I get back at her by doing what she did to me, that would only be playing to that pervert’s wishes.
“d.a.m.n it, I’ll let it go for now, but I’ll have my revenge.”
However, I didn’t really take it seriously. In Chinese tradition, we believe the woman is always at the disadvantage when a man and woman has physical contact. I also didn’t really think I was taken advantage of anyway.
Right when I looked away from Chen YingRan, I noticed all the parents present were looking in the same direction.
A woman wearing high heels exited a cab. Her heels were different than Chen YingRan’s burgundy high heels, her high heels were black and gave off an elegant atmosphere.
Her cropped flare pants were also black. It seems she just came from a hotter place, so she didn’t have time to change into warmer pants.
She was wearing a simple white shirt on her upper body. It was suitable for many occasions, whether it was a meeting, scientific research, friends gathering… She pulled her sleeves up to her elbow which revealed a silver watch on her wrist.
She was dressed in a minimalist black and white ensemble. She gave off an air of casual elegance that suggested “less is more”, and she was indeed naturally beautiful.
Her long hair was neatly piled at the back of her head and adorned with simple hair accessories. It looked like she could let her hair down at any moment and easily transition between “work” and “leisure”.
Even without letting her hair down, she looked like an ethereal figure in a painting.
She had a strong resemblance to the cla.s.s leader, except her eyes lack the sharp intensity of the cla.s.s leader’s gaze.
In fact, I feel like her eyes are closer to Shu Zhe’s, but it contained a gentleness that Shu Zhe didn’t possess.
