Chapter 16 Li Zhi: I'm not one to resist temptation
"Born! This is what birth is all about!"

After the first evening self-study session ended, Shen Yuan had already checked the answers and explained the test paper.

When he returned to his seat, he was met with a scathing rebuke from Zhou Shaojie.

"Yuan, I trusted you so much! How could you do such a thing..."

Before Zhou Shaojie could finish speaking, Shen Yuan clasped his hands in a fist salute and said in a strong and resounding voice.

"Father!"

Upon hearing this, a slight look of surprise appeared in Li Zhi's eyes.

Goodness, that's a really fast kneel.

However, Li Zhi didn't say anything, after all, the mango pomelo sago was really delicious.

As his deskmate, Li Zhi naturally knew where the mango pomelo sago in his hand came from.

Zhou Shaojie opened his mouth, his mood caught between a conflicting mix of "trying to condemn" and "feeling incredibly good."

He wanted to continue condemning Shen Yuan's immoral behavior, but then again...

The child does not teach, the father too.

If I continue talking like this, then I'll be in the wrong!
Never mind, I'll forgive him.

It was just a few English questions; I didn't do many myself anyway.

Zhou Shaojie sighed, "Your father forgives you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Shaojie saw a hand reach onto his desk. Before he could stop it, Shen Yuan took his English weekly test paper.

"Oh dear, A-Jie, how come you only got 61 points on your English test?"

Seeing that the die was cast, Zhou Shaojie leaned back in his seat and said, "Yuan, why are you so concerned about this score? This scoring system will distort people's efforts!"

"Have I not put in the effort to learn English? Is this the result I wanted? I want to improve! I really want to progress!"

After saying that, Zhou Shaojie said sincerely, "Besides, I got a 61, wasn't it just to make the rest of the class look good?"

Shen Yuan laughed: "Hey, Zhou Shaojie got the MVP!"

……

After evening self-study, Shen Yuan and Li Zhi exchanged schoolbags as usual.

The two walked separately, neither speaking first.

"Clap."

"Clap."

Shen Yuan kicked the pebbles on the road one after another.

Li Zhi got annoyed and said, "Can you stop kicking me, you childish brat?"

"Oh."

Shen Yuan picked up the round pebble and carefully placed it in the flower bed by the roadside to hide it.

"I'll kick you when I get back tomorrow."

Hearing Shen Yuan's words, Li Zhi was speechless.

This is beyond childish; it's downright intellectual disability.

However, since Shen Yuan mentioned tomorrow, Li Zhi asked, "It's a holiday tomorrow, what are you planning to do?"

Shen Yuan immediately moved closer to Li Zhi and asked with a grin, "Do you want to ask me to go out and play, but you're too shy to ask? It's okay, baby, as long as you ask, I'm always ready to go."

Li Zhi was taken aback, then immediately dodged to the side in disgust: "You bastard! Who wants to go out with you!"

Shen Yuan pointed at someone with a husky-like gesture and said, "Lying."

"Who's lying!" Li Zhi exclaimed anxiously.

"When Li Zhi lies, he pinches his own fingers."

Li Zhi paused, stunned.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shen Yuan stepped in front of her and grabbed Li Zhi's left hand.

Pointing to the mark on his left index finger, Shen Yuan smiled and said, "So, what do you want to do tomorrow?"

Li Zhifei quickly pulled her hand away from Shen Yuan's grasp, looking at the boy in front of her with a face full of shame and anger.

"not going!"

Shen Yuan watched as the beautiful Qingmei walked quickly towards home, a smile appearing on his face.

Sunday's holiday lasts from the time school ends at noon until the start of evening self-study, which is no more than 7 hours in total.

Where can we go?
Are you suggesting we go hiking in the middle of summer?

Come on.

Jiyang is just a small county town, and there aren't many places to visit.

But in this sweltering heat, we can basically rule them all out.

So the only places left are a few shopping malls.

What can you do in a shopping mall? With that thought in mind, Shen Yuan picked up his phone and searched for some information.

They soon discovered a newly opened claw machine shop.

The scheming frog keeps touching your belly!
The case is solved, everyone.

Play claw machines.

As far as Shen Yuan knew, Li Zhi was the kind of guy who was terrible at claw machines but loved playing them.

But Shen Yuan is different; he is very strong.

So Li Zhi's earlier hesitation was probably because she wanted Shen Yuan to win her a prize.

However, because someone pointed it out directly, the beautiful girl was a little embarrassed to speak up.

Then someone discovered he was lying, and in the end, he gave up and decided not to go.

"Tomorrow I'll show you what you, Emperor Yuan Tian, ​​can do!"

Shen Yuan stuffed his phone into his pocket and quickly caught up with Li Zhi.

Although the beautiful girl was shorter than Shen Yuan, her legs were ridiculously long. When she walked with great strides, Shen Yuan really had to jog a few steps to catch up with her.

However, after being exposed, the beautiful girl ignored her childhood friend the whole way.

Even the next morning, Li Zhi did not wait for Shen Yuan.

Looking at the shoes that had disappeared from Li Zhi's doorstep, Shen Yuan curled his lip.

Well, I might as well finish my system tasks.

System tasks are actually quite easy to complete.

After all, the system didn't specify how long or how far you had to run to be counted in those 10 kilometers.

Shen Yuan runs to the cafeteria, the convenience store, and even the toilet every day – all within these 10 kilometers.

Just leave it there and swipe it, that's all.

Running 2 kilometers a day is no problem at all.

When Shen Yuan arrived at the classroom, Li Zhi was already there.

As soon as he sat down, Shen Yuan demanded an explanation: "Why didn't you wait for me?"

"It's your own fault for getting up late, what does that have to do with me?"

Perhaps because he felt guilty, Li Zhi spoke without any confidence.

"Hey!"

However, Shen Yuan then mysteriously asked Li Zhi, "Do you know why I overslept today?"

Why do boys sometimes wake up late?

Are you tired tonight?
Li Zhi wasn't completely ignorant, especially in the joyful family of Class 15.

The boys would nuzzle each other every day after class; even a fool would understand.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi immediately showed a disgusted expression.

"Down!"

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Shen Yuan pointed at someone with a husky-like gesture and said, "Don't make false accusations!"

"So what can you do?"

Seeing Li Zhi's determined look, Shen Yuan's lips curled into a smile.

"Let me tell you, I saw a new claw machine shop yesterday. It costs one yuan for three tokens. If you catch a certain number, you can exchange them for bigger plush toys. I'm going to stock up on them today."

Upon hearing about the claw machine, Li Zhi unsurprisingly took the bait.

However, the beautiful girl, Qingmei, did not immediately show her emotions, but instead turned her head away.

"Then just go, why are you telling me?"

Shen Yuan looked at Li Zhi and a smile appeared on his face.

Hey, you're being arrogant now.

I never knew that the proud childhood sweetheart would inevitably lose to the one who suddenly appears out of nowhere.

If a girl suddenly appears out of nowhere, you're doomed, Young Master Li.

Shen Yuan moved closer to Li Zhi and poked her fair arm: "Really not going?"

"Don't go!"

"Tsk, that's a pity. I heard they give you 10 coins for the trial. I was thinking if we went together, we could get 20."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi turned to look at Shen Yuan and said very seriously, "Shen Yuan, you are tempting me."

Shen Yuan grinned and said, "Then let's go together."

The proud childhood friend nodded: "I'm not one to resist temptation."
