Chapter 77 - 77 Why Is My Cheap Husband Becoming More And More Pleasing To The Eye?
Turning off the alarm clock, she stretched her legs and kicked Li Yanchen a few times. He stretched his legs. The numbness was fading.
The man looked at his face on the screen of his mobile phone. The dark circles under his eyes were clearly visible, so he opened his suitcase and took out the glasses he carried with him.
‘He’s short-sighted?’ For so many days, Lin Wan had not realized that Li Yanchen looked rather handsome with glasses. He looked just like the teacher that Lin Wan had idolized in university.
!!
For a moment, Lin Wan felt that old men were quite charming.
Feeling the stare on his back, Li Yanchen turned around to meet Lin Wan’s eyes. Their eyes locked. The two of them then turned away in embarrassment.
“I’ll wash up and then cook some noodles.” Li Yanchen’s heart raced. He fled from there.
“Oh, okay. I’ll … I’ll … um… fold the clothes.” Lin Wan was tongue-tied.
After leaving the room, Li Yanchen quickly tidied his hair. Thankfully, it was only three in the morning and the bedroom was very dark. Lin Wan might not have seen how bad his complexion was.
Lin Wan heaved a sigh of relief. ‘Why was her cheap husband becoming more and more pleasing to the eye?’
At four, all the families gathered and climbed the mountain together. The children cheered.
Li Zexin pulled Xiao Yi aside and told him that he had begged Lin Wan last night and that she would think about it. Li Zexin emphasized that Lin Wan usually rejected everything directly so the fact that she was considering it meant that there was still some hope.
Xiao Yi pushed Li Zexin’s hand away. “Walk properly. Aren’t you afraid of falling down the mountain?”
“Can you take me in as your disciple? Please? You don’t know this, but in order to perform well in front of Ms. Lin, I got up at 3:30 this morning and made breakfast for the whole family with my father.” Li Zexin yawned to prove that he had made a huge sacrifice in order to impress Lin Wan.
Xiao Yi patted Li Zexin’s shoulder. “We’ll talk about it when she agrees to join the next episode. I’ll add you into the team chat as soon as Auntie Lin appears in the second episode. Even if she doesn’t, you still have a chance. You only need to make it to the top ten in the finals ranking.”
Li Zexin’s mouth was wide open. “You went back on your word. Didn’t you say that if Ms. Lin agreed to participate in the next live broadcast, you would accept me?”
“And did she “agree”?” Xiao Yi was as hopeful as Li Zexin but she hadn’t directly agreed. “You can’t eat hot tofu if you’re impatient.”
“Alright, it’s only been two months.” The boy was clearly very disappointed, but he still appeared spirited. “Let’s take a few photos later. When we get back to school, I can show them off to my friends.”
Xiao Yi looked at Li Zexin, who was clinging to his arm again. “If you want to take a photo with me, keep a distance of one meter from my arm.” He scowled.
Li Zexin immediately let go.
A few steps away, Xia Mo and Song Jing walked with Lin Wan, one either side of her.
Xia Mo had intended to use this group activity as an opportunity to request Lin Wan to be her master once again, but she hadn’t expected Song Jing to follow them. “Lin Wan, visit my shop when we get back to Yun City. I will give you a lot of pastries.”
“Alright.” Lin Wan agreed.
Xia Mo felt flattered. “I’ll send you the location when we get back.”
Song Jing also took the initiative to strike up a conversation. “Lin Wan, this year is our tenth graduation anniversary. Yesterday, the Class Committee members were texting in the group chat and said that there will be a class reunion next month. Will you be attending?”
‘A class reunion?’ Lin Wan had been thinking about it for the past few days. Summer break was the peak period for class reunions. If the original owner’s class could get together, she would have a chance to understand her past. The original owner of her body was introverted and didn’t talk much. As long as she remained silent at the reunion, no one would doubt her. If anybody asked why she didn’t attend any of the gatherings except this, she could say she wanted to attend it because of Song Jing’s invitation.
“Of course.” Lin Wan thought that her chance had finally come.
“That’s great! Do you know how much the class monitor and the others want you to come? If they only knew that you agreed, they would be so happy. I’ll tell them when we get down the mountain.” Song Jing began to talk about the class reunion. Xia Mo felt that she could not interrupt their conversation without appearing rude so she walked beside them silently.
When they finally reached the top of the mountain, the Festival Group had already marked out the best area to watch the sunrise, and all five cameras were turned on at the same time.
[First.]
[Baby, I’m here. Is that Lin Wan? She didn’t refuse?]
[All five members of Xuanxuan’s family are here. Is it because it’s the last day that Lin Wan decided to leave a good impression before leaving?]
[It’s so early! Why is everyone so lively? Aren’t you guys sleeping?]
[Sleep, my a*s! It’s the last day that I get to look at my baby. How can I fall asleep?]
[The Xuanxuan family’s style of dressing today is very neat. They’re actually all in sportswear, but the colors are a little off.]
[What about Tutu’s family? Why isn’t anyone here?]
[It’s true. Not a single person came.]
[I didn’t hear about them either. The Festival Group didn’t even send out a notice. What’s going on?]
The staff member noticed the questions in the comments and explained, “Tutu’s family is voluntarily giving up on today’s task.”
[They are really not coming. Is toot throwing a tantrum again? After all, he must have woken up so early.]
[Hey, Tutu might be young, but he is fierce.]
[Didn’t Su Wei bring Xu Xiaoxiao on the show to increase popularity? Today is to compete for the endorsement spot. It’s such a good opportunity, and they’re giving it up just like that?]
[Forget it. It’s fine as long as Xuanxuan is here.]
[There’s also Wheatley. With the two of them around, the other families are just background characters.]
[Previous poster, there’s no need to praise one and step on another. I think the top student is also very interesting.]
[I still think Anan’s family is the most interesting among all. It’s so difficult to do a live broadcast together. The commenters are about to start a fight.]
[Can you focus on watching? Why are you making so much noise so early in the morning? It’d be great if we could see the sunrise through the live broadcast room.]
[That’s right. You can support whoever you like without hating others.]
The four families sat down in the pose they were most satisfied with.
Just like last night’s rehearsal, Wheatley, Nannan and Michael sat in a row. The three of them seemed to be hugging each other casually. Nannan subconsciously looked at the camera that was turned to the side. All three of them appeared in the camera.
Meanwhile, Xia Mo sat in the middle, with Xiao Yi and Xiao Tianlin on either side of her. It looked like Xia Mo was a Princess protected by her two knights.
Anan sat on her father’s lap. Song Jing held An Yang’s arm and leaned her head on his shoulder.
The Li family sat in a row. Li Zexuan crossed his legs and leaned back, with his hand supporting him. Li Zexin was sitting cross-legged and very upright as though he was about to go into meditation. Li Zekai was squeezed between his two brothers. Li Yanchen sat casually with his legs apart. Lin Wan hugged her knees.
In her original world, Lin Wan used to livestream till the middle of the night. S, she always woke up late. It had been a long time since she had seen a rising sun.
