"They were too embarrassed to ask themselves, so they asked me to inquire."

At this point, Jiang Yubai paused, then deliberately said:

"But since you don't have time... then I can only tell you the truth, okay? Hang up, Mom, you can have fun."

The next second, Qin Huiyi's voice came through the phone:

"Etc., etc!"

Jiang Yubai feigned ignorance:

"What's wrong, Mom? Is there anything else?"

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, then the tone became serious:

"Jiang Yubai, explain yourself clearly. Are you sure Lin Jianxia and Lin Tingwan... really want me to attend the parent-teacher conference?"

Just as Jiang Yubai was about to pat his chest and make a guarantee, Qin Huiyi's tone suddenly turned dangerous:

"You brat, you can't just make decisions like this on your own. If you dare to fool me or deceive that girl in this matter, you'll be in for a world of hurt."

Jiang Yubai: "......."

He took a deep breath and said irritably:

"Mom, just tell me if you're going or not. I'm just passing on a message, and you're going to yell at me for it?"

"go with!"

The voice on the other end of the phone was resolute.

"But have the two sisters call me back later so I can double-check."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yubai gave a wink to the side.

Lin Jianxia's heart was pounding, still reeling from the unexpected turn of events.

It wasn't until Jiang Yubai gently nudged her that the girl snapped out of her daze, quickly leaning closer and whispering into the phone:

"Aunt Qin, Wanwan and I are right here."

The person on the other end of the phone was clearly surprised that the two sisters were actually there; there was a moment of silence, then the voice softened:

"Oh, it's Jianxia! Auntie hasn't seen you all in so long, I've missed you so much. Didn't we agree that you could come to my house to play when you have time? I'll cook you something delicious."

"I've been so busy with senior year lately..." Lin Jianxia's voice was weak, clearly showing her nervousness. "I'll definitely come when I have time."

"Okay, it's settled then."

Qin Huiyi paused for a moment, then asked:

"Jianxia, ​​tell Auntie the truth. Is it really necessary for Auntie to go, or is it just that Xiaobai kid giving bad advice? Don't be afraid, tell Auntie the truth."

“Jiang Yubai is telling the truth,” Lin Jianxia’s voice trailed off, “It’s just… I was worried you’re too busy. If it’s really inconvenient, then it’s okay…”

"There's no such thing as being busy or not!"

Qin Huiyi's voice immediately rose:

"No, no, Auntie isn't busy at all. It's Friday, right? Auntie will definitely come, and I'll dress up nicely!"

Jiang Yubai, who was listening nearby and enjoying it, couldn't help but chime in:

"Mom, what about your girlfriends of over ten years? Are you just going to ignore them?"

"We've known each other for over a decade, what's one more time?" Qin Huiyi said matter-of-factly. "Besides, they'll understand about my son's marriage."

Lin Tingwan, who was standing to the side, suddenly blinked.

Lin Jianxia paused for a moment, then nodded in understanding.

The National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao) is here... truly a life-changing event.

Jiang Yubai's lips twitched, and he silently looked away.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries and finally confirmed the time and details of the parent-teacher meeting before hanging up the phone.

Lin Jianxia was still a little dazed when the busy tone started ringing regularly.

She blinked, stared blankly for several seconds, then turned her head as if in a daze to look at Jiang Yubai:

"Did Aunt Qin really agree?"

Jiang Yubai nodded: "He really agreed."

"...I don't quite believe it," the girl suddenly said with a pained expression. "Am I dreaming? Why don't you pinch me?"

Is there such a good thing?

Jiang Yubai's eyes lit up, and without any hesitation, he reached out and cupped the other person's warm cheeks, pinching and kneading them mercilessly, thoroughly enjoying the pleasure of doing so.

Lin Jianxia still looked a little bewildered, as if she hadn't expected this guy to actually dare to make a move.

After being roughly handled twice, she finally widened her eyes and slapped away the large hand that was ravaging her small face:

"I told you not to pinch! What are you doing with your paws!"

"Oh, alright."

Jiang Yubai readily agreed and extended his hand again.

With another 'smack', he hissed and gasped, shaking his hand, which had turned red from the slap.

Lin Jianxia glared at this guy, bit her lower lip, and suddenly "humphed" as she stood up:

"Pah, I'm ignoring you, I'm going to cook."

Even though she tried to suppress her joy, she couldn't help but let a hint of excitement slip out in the end.

She took two steps, then turned her little head, wrinkled her nose, and asked:

"Hey, you idiot, what do you want to eat?"

"Stir-fried pork with chili peppers!" Jiang Yubai replied immediately.

"I eat it every day, and I never get tired of it..."

Lin Jianxia muttered something under her breath, but then strode lightly into the kitchen.

The little hedgehog is so cute!

After watching Lin Jianxia's retreating figure disappear through the kitchen door for a while, Jiang Yubai finally looked away.

He was just about to collapse on the sofa and rest for a while when he noticed Lin Tingwan staring at him intently.

"Wanwan?" He blinked. "What's wrong?"

Lin Tingwan looked at him for a few seconds, then took out her notebook:

"hug."

"Okay, okay~ Hug—"

Before Jiang Yu could finish speaking, Lin Tingwan had already opened her arms and pounced on him.

The force was so great that he was caught off guard and fell backward into the soft sofa with a cry of "Hey!"

Jiang Yubai felt as if he was instantly enveloped by the familiar scent of lavender, and her soft body pressed against him without any hesitation.

The girl wrapped her arms around his waist, buried her face in his chest, and rubbed against him.

"...You'll get scolded if your sister sees this later." Jiang Yubai said with a hint of helplessness.

Lin Tingwan: Stare—

"Sigh... I'll just rub against it."

Lin Tingwan: ~

Friday.

The gentle ringing of the bell woke Jiang Yubai from his sleep.

The rustling sounds of tidying up, the soft clatter of tables and chairs being moved, and the gradually clearing noise from outside the corridor slowly drifted into my ears.

He looked up, rubbed his eyes, and it took him a while to look outside.

After lunch break, it was time for the parent-teacher meeting. Many parents had already gathered outside and were chatting casually in the corridor.

Beside him, Lin Tingwan gazed out the window, looking lost in thought.

"Wanwan?" Jiang Yubai rubbed his eyes and yawned. "Aren't you asleep?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Tingwan turned to look at him, her little face immediately contorting with distress, looking extremely nervous.

“…Jian Xia?” Jiang Yubai recognized the expression immediately and his lips twitched. “Why did you switch your sister?”

Lin Tingwan was sitting in this seat during class this morning.

Lin Jianxia bit her lower lip, remaining silent. She quickly pulled a notebook from under the table, scribbled a few words, and nervously handed it to him:

"I'll be coming over last night when the parent-teacher meeting officially starts! I'm just here for a little while."

"I saw Aunt Qin and Uncle Jiang in the hallway... What should we do? What should we do? They seemed to be looking this way just now."

Jiang Yubai couldn't help but laugh.

Even though the girl didn't say anything, he could feel the tension that Lin Jianxia was about to burst out just from her words.

He picked up his pen and slowly replied:

"No, you haven't done anything wrong, why are you so scared?"

"So what if you're looking over here? They're going to sit down here later anyway. Are you going to hide under the table?"

Lin Jianxia's reply was huffy:

"Who's scared! I'm just nervous!"

Jiang Yubai glanced at her and then said:

"Nervous? You didn't sleep all afternoon, did you? Just staring out the window like that?"

Lin Jianxia didn't answer this time. Her face fell, and she lay motionless on the table, looking utterly dejected.
