You hidden in my heart - Chapter 42.4

Chapter 42.4

The first self-study class ended at 5:30 in the afternoon, and there was an hour of meal time after that.

It was just after 5:30 when Lu Yuling called Li Xining.

At that time, she was working on a thorough science report.

When she answered the phone, her tone was still a little wilted. “Hey, what are you doing?”

Lu Yuling almost laughed when he heard her tone. ‘The little tigress must have been trained by her mother.’ Thinking that, he immediately comforted her. “It’s okay. You just stay at home for two days and treat it as a holiday.”

Li Xining was still listless. “You said it lightly. But my mother confiscated my tablet and refused to let me watch the TV series.”

She had finished watching the episodes of male and female protagonists in college. The plot of the two in the college was particularly sweet, and there was also another part that would show the male and female protagonists getting married and having children.

For most girls, if the hero and heroine of a romantic TV series or romance novel don’t get married and have children at the end, it would be a tragedy.

Sighing, Li Xining said sadly, “I haven’t finished watching the finale episode yet.”

‘I should have confiscated your tablet long ago to save you from watching Shen Siqi every day.’ Although he thought like that, he pretended to reassure Li Xining because he knew he couldn’t tell her unless he wanted to die. “Oh, it’s okay. It’s only been temporarily seized; it’s not like she won’t give it back to you. The TV series won’t run away, so you can watch it later.”

Not feeling reassured, Li Xining persisted in her complaint, saying, “My mother also deducted my pocket money.” She let out a sigh and felt like crying at this point. “Shen Siqi is the new spokesman for Adidas, but I don’t have money to buy it.”

After hearing this, Lu Yuling remained silent. He silently lowered his head and looked at the pair of global limited edition Adidas sneakers he was wearing that had only been worn for three days. ‘From now on, I will never buy or wear anything from the Adidas series until Shen Siqi’s endorsement expires. Your mother should have deducted your pocket money a long time ago!’

Lu Yuling inhaled deeply, controlled his anger, and carried on reassuring his future wife. “It’s alright. Money is an external entity. You will spend more if you have more. You will spend less if you have less. You can ask me for money if you want.”

After a brief pause, Li Xining asked, “Then can you lend me some money?” 

Since childhood, she had never taken out a loan from anyone. It was the first time. She was so embarrassed that she rushed to tell Lu Yuling why she needed the loan. “The shoes he endorses are limited edition. If you don’t buy them, they will be gone. When I have money, I will definitely pay you back! I swear, I will give you the diamond necklace!”

‘You want to take my money to raise a pretty boy?’ Lu Yuling almost fainted from anger. After taking several deep breaths, he finally calmed down and replied, “I can lend you money, but I have a condition.”

Li Xining seemed to see the light and quickly answered, “Okay. Okay. You say it, and I will definitely promise you!”

Lu Yuling: “You can’t buy Adidas shoes.”

‘Why should I borrow money if I don’t buy Adidas shoes?’ Li Xining was furious. “Why?”

Lu Yuling said seriously, “Because I don’t like them.”

Li Xining: “Just pretend. You just don’t like Shen Siqi!”

Lu Yuling: “You know I don’t like him. Why don’t you do it? Are you going to buy the shoes he endorses? I’m angry, and it’s not easy to coax me!”

Upon hearing that, Li Xining became furious. “You are indeed… You have no understanding! I don’t buy the shoes he endorses because I like him. I just admire him. I think his acting skills are good, and the TV series he makes are good. So I am willing to support him.”

Lu Yuling was even more unhappy hearing that. “Li Xining. How come I haven’t seen you support me like this before?”

“You are not in the entertainment industry; how can I support you?” Li Xining assertively asked.

Lu Yuling shot back. “Don’t force young people into poverty. Perhaps I’m telling you. In the future, I’ll be heavily active in the entertainment sector, and by then, I might have many fans. You will have no chance in the future if you don’t treat me with kindness today. If you treat me well now, I’ll let you be the leader of the fans.”

With contempt, Li Xining declared. “I’m not interested in leading your fandom. Becoming a Black fan leader is my goal. I will expose the good things you did when you were in school to gossip reporters every day, and then I will let you pay a high price to block my mouth!”

Lu Yuling smiled and asked, “Tell me, what good things have I done? Let me see if it’s worth it.”

Li Xining also laughed, and the worry of being fined with pocket money was gone. “I want to expose your deeds: skipping school, skipping classes, getting into fights, and being the last in your grade in every exam!”

“It’s not worth it. If you truly want to expose me, I’ll teach you how to do it,” Lu Yuling said with a smile. “Just let the paparazzi know that Li Xining is my puppy love.”

 
“You think it’s so beautiful!”Li Xining scolded the boy with a red face. 

Lu Yuling: “Not only do I want to be beautiful, but my wife is as beautiful as a flower. Beautiful as a fairy.”

 Li Xining originally wanted to scold him for being shameless, but she was pleased by the two sentences that followed: “Beautiful as a flower” and “Beautiful as a fairy.” 

“You should first get into the top 200 of your grade; otherwise, we won’t be friends!” she said after a few seconds. 

“If I can get into the top 400 of my grade this time, would you like to have breakfast with me?” Lu Yuling asked, turning a deaf ear to Li Xining’s words.

“Oh, I have no money!” First Li Xining refused, but thinking it would be impossible to do in a short period, she agreed. “Okay, if you can really get into the top 400 of your grade in one go, I’ll treat you to breakfast, and I’ll treat you to whatever you want to eat.”

Lu Yuling smiled and said with satisfaction, “Okay, I’m just waiting for your words.”

“Hey!” Li Xining said angrily, “I’m going to die if I stay home.”

 Lu Yuling: “Okay, you may just stay at home these two days. In the evening, I will forward the class notes to you.”

“Okay…” At that moment, Li Xining felt a little melancholy in her heart. All she could do was need Lu Yuling’s support.

When Lu Yuling sent notes, Li Xining sent them to Xu Dongruo. 

After two days, the suspension was over, and Li Xining and Xu Dongruo went back to school together.

Have a nice day!
