After entering the bathroom, I first washed my face to clear my head. Then I remembered that I have not yet urinated this morning and I had to clear my bladder.

Thus I dropped my pants, aimed my instrument at the toilet, and stood firmly with my feet spread.

It might be due to the fact that Xiao Qin was in the living room, I was a bit nervous and couldn’t let it out for the time being.

Since I brought it up, the lock to the bathroom door broke half a year ago. The main problem was that although it can be locked, the door can be opened by simply applying a bit of force on the door handle from the outside.

Since our family doesn’t get many guests, and my father and I are the only ones who use the bathroom, we haven’t bothered looking for someone to fix the lock.

Will Xiao Qin come in and bother me when I’m urinating? I’ve already been seen by the class leader last time when I was pissing under the bridge. I didn’t want to repeat my mistakes and make a new shameful record of my nether region being seen by girls.

As I was spaced out, I heard someone knocking on the bathroom door.

“Ye Lin classmate, can I come in and wash my hands?” Xiao Qin asked innocently.

“I want to wash my hands with soap before placing the tableware!”

“Wait, wait a minute!” I said hurriedly, “I’m using the bathroom! Come in after I’m done!”

“Does it matter~?” Although we were separated by door, I can still imagine Xiao Qin’s grinning appearance, “Don’t worry so much about the details between childhood friends, anyway, it’s not like you’ll get pregnant if I take a look!”

Where did you learn such disgusting words? Also, even if someone got pregnant, wouldn’t it be you!

Since the lock was broken, my alertness was raised to the max.

Fortunately, Xiao Qin did not know. She held the door handle and turned it halfway. After realizing that I locked the door, she didn’t try again.

“Ye Lin classmate classmate really isn’t sincere. We clearly said that we were childhood friends…”

So childhood friends can inspect each others’ bodies as they please? Ever since you reverted your status to that of childhood friends, you were only peaceful for the first two days, how are you now more unbridled than the time when you claimed to be my girlfriend?

It may be because she took my father, who was sleeping soundly, into consideration, Xiao Qin did not do anything excessive (such as tearing down the bathroom door and giving me an inspection). She waited earnestly until I left the bathroom to wash her hands, then she ran to the kitchen to grab the tableware ahead of me as if there was major significance in whoever got the tableware first.

Xiao Qin sat across from me at the dining table, where the old man usually sits. She placed both hands on her knees while appearing expectant and reserved.

“Are you sure we don’t have to call uncle Ye to eat with us?”

Xiao Qin asked again.

“No,” I said, holding the porcelain bowl that was filled with white rice by Xiao Qin, and shook my head. “Dad is sleepy and drunk, he’s sleeping like a log right now. Do you hear him snoring? We won’t be able to wake him!”

Xiao Qin replied with ‘oh’ and quietly waited for me to take the first bite before she moved her chopsticks.

“Is it delicious?” she asked without much confidence.

Overall, it’s pretty good, I guess? Anyway, it is definitely better than me and my dad’s cooking. As for the school cafeteria… don’t even mention the cafeteria. This dish is not even in the same dimension as the cafeteria food.

However, after eating the braised beef and potatoes that the class leader gave me last night, my tastes became a bit more picky. I felt that the heat control for the dish was a bit rushed, also, there was too much sea cucumbers, which kind of overpowered the dish.

“(*^__^*) Hehe… Ye Lin classmate, is the sea cucumber delicious? I helped cut the sea cucumbers!”

Did you cut this much so you can display good behavior in front of your mother? I can almost imagine the scene where auntie Ren sees a ceiling-high pile of seas cucumbers and she had no choice but to put them all in the pot.

“By the way, sea cucumbers are reaaaally~ slippery! If you don’t grip on to it, it will slip away in an instant! It also looks gross…”

Don’t say anymore, I am currently chewing on a piece of sea cucumber. Can you not make me remember the fact that they are a black rod-shaped object?

“However, every time I see a sea cucumber, I think of Ye Lin classmate~”

Don’t associate me with sea cucumbers! How am I similar to an invertebrate like the sea cucumber! Can you focus on eating? Don’t spend most of your time looking at me!

“Because, sister Ying Ran once told me that sea cucumbers are beneficial for men, so I wrote it down… That’s why I cut a lot of sea cucumbers yesterday, hoping Ye Lin classmate can become healthier after eating it!”

I should have known it was the perverted school doctor that taught you. When it’s said that it’s beneficial for men, it’s referring to the fact that it boosts a man’s sex drive! Chen YingRan, you’re clearly treating men as a sexual tool to sate your lust!

After Auntie Ren saw that Xiao Qin cut way too many sea cucumbers, she probably had no choice but to increase the amount of chicken and bamboo shoots. In the end, she ended up with a huge pot of sea cucumber stewed bamboo chicken… There’s no way the two of them could have finished it! Xiao Qin, you definitely planned this ahead of time! Auntie Ren is already busy enough with filming everyday, then she’s still messed around by you!

I discovered that Xiao Qin was only eating the chicken and bamboo shoots. Even if she accidentally took some sea cucumber, she would put it in my bowl.

“Why aren’t you eating the sea cucumber? I remember you love eating seafood!”

“Well… I prefer original seafood, like boiled prawns, steamed crabs, they’re all pretty good!” Xiao Qin said and unconsciously licked her lips.

“When it’s mixed with other things, I don’t like it that much…” Xiao Qin smiled bitterly.

You have a lot of problems! Also, prawns, crabs, sea cucumbers, aren’t they all pretty expensive ingredients? Are you planning to use expensive ingredients to make up for your cooking? The class leader can use ordinary ingredients to make delicious meals!

Xiao Qin didn’t know what I was thinking. She looked at me with a smile and said:

“Actually, whole boiled sea cucumber is pretty good!”

Eh? Just boiled, not cut, how do you even eat one?

“Just put it directly in your mouth!” Xiao Qin had the pure smile of a glutton. “Once, my mom might have been making stew or something, but she boiled a lot of sea cucumbers. While she wasn’t paying attention, I secretly took one to snack on…”

“But when I was reading manga while eating sea cucumber, my mom caught me. She said that the way I eat sea cucumber was unsightly and I won’t be allowed to eat it that way in the future!”

“Mom is too unreasonable! I only held the sea cucumber with my mouth because I was turning a page! I’m already trying so hard to act like a girl, how can you say my actions are indecent! In the end, it’s probably because she was against me reading shoujo manga!”

Xiao Qin complained angrily, unable to understand her mistakes.

I, on the other hand, immediately thought of an important category in H manga: tentacles.

In this category, it is said that all kinds of tentacle monsters (such as octopus aliens) make a scene and use their sticky and disgusting tentacles to play with unfortunate beautiful girls.

If the scene of Xiao Qin reading manga with a half eaten sea cucumber in her mouth was seen by a vulgar person (such as Eunuch Cao), wouldn’t they frantically visualize a scene with tentacles?

“Haha, I can finally go to school with Ye Lin classmate today!”

After we finished eating breakfast, Xiao Qin picked up her bag in high spirits.

I said coldly: “It’s still early, I have to run around Dongshan Lake.”

“Wher-… where are you going?” Xiao Qin’s face was immediately covered with worry.

“I’m going to Dongshan Lake, I run three laps around the lake everyday.”

I said without thinking it through, and later it was too late to regret that I told her my daily schedule so easily: Will Xiao Qin now run behind me every day? If that’s the case, I will lose the rare time I get to reflect on life!

Unexpectedly, after she heard the words “Dongshan Lake”. Xiao Qin turned her head and bit her fingernails nervously.

“Wh- what a pity! Since there’s something scary in Dongshan Lake, I…, I’m afraid I can’t go with Ye Lin classmate! Boo hoo hoo~~~~”

She was probably sobbing quietly because she was afraid of waking my father.

I was surprised that there was something in this world that frightened Xiao Qin. Although Dongshan Lake was not small, there’s no way the Loch Ness monster would be inside, right?

I usually ate breakfast after I finished my run. I also rarely carried my bag to run.

I told Xiao Qin that she could wait here and we could go to school together after I finished my run.

Since I ate the meal she brought, it felt wrong to refuse her request of going to school together.

But Xiao Qin said that if I was not at home, she would not know how to greet uncle Ye if he woke up.

“Umm… I’ll help you bring your bag to school. Even if Ye Lin classmate isn’t there, I can at least feel a bit relieved with your bag, it’s the only way…”

Then, after she finished speaking, she miserably extended her hands, hoping I will let her take my bag.

I satisfied her better left undisclosed wish.

When we left together, I found white putty (TN: modeling clay or Plasticine) stuck on the peephole.

It wasn’t gum, but putty? Brats generally wouldn’t use putty to block peepholes, right? Also, with such a big piece you can already make a robot cat! (TN: I’m assuming he’s referring to Doraemon)

I turned my suspicious gaze towards Xiao Qin, who was feigning innocence.

“It was you, right? If I think about it carefully, it’s definitely you! You first blocked the peephole, covered your mouth and said it was a delivery, so you could trick me in opening the door, right? If I wasn’t half asleep, I wouldn’t have fallen for your tricks!”

Xiao Qin hugged my bag, appearing as if she was wrongfully accused while shaking her head desperately.

“It wasn’t me! I swear to god! If it was me, I’ll marry Ye Lin classmate as atonement!”

Who wants to marry you! I was still skeptical just now, but after what you just said, I’m 100% sure it was you! Also, you wouldn’t be marrying me for atonement, it would be for making me suffer!

When we separated on the street, Xiao Qin waved to me with a face full of tears:

“Please be careful! Make sure to come to school for me!”

If a stranger passed by, they would think she was sending me off to the front lines.

After running a half circle around Dongshan Lake, I spotted kung fu gramps.

Gramps was as spirited as usual. He was twirling his long beard that was in front of his chest while watching my running posture. He suddenly said:

“Xiao Ye Zi, come here and hit me.”

“Eh?”

“Stop wasting time! I said hit me! As hard as you can!”
