Quick Wear: My love-brained childhood sweetheart always asks me for a kiss
Chapter 302: The Academic Genius vs. the Rebellious Childhood Sweetheart (59)
"She is just that kind of person. If you don't explain it to her, she won't notice it. She is so slow." However, Bai Yufan was right not to say it. She could see that Lin Shuang had no such intention towards him at all.
The college entrance examination is only a few months away. If the embarrassment of a failed confession affects your mood and even the college entrance examination, it would be a loss.
The Lu and Lin families are now at loggerheads. Lin Lishu blamed Lu Boyou for her son's death. But Lu Boyou felt that the responsibility was on her. He was also upset that Lin Lishu had someone knock him out and forcibly cut off his vas deferens.
The two families are already in a difficult phase, and these two are still making trouble.
Naturally, no one will end up well in the end.
In a fit of rage, Mr. Lin drove Lin Lishu out of the house, and there were many people in the Lu Group who were eyeing her covetously. Lu Boyou's position as the person in power was also not preserved.
But he still felt relieved. He quietly collected evidence and sent Lin Lishu to jail.
No matter how angry he was, she was his daughter after all. Old Master Lin showed no mercy and took advantage of Lu Boyou's defeat to get him in jail.
Netizens on the Internet were all laughing. They said that the family of three took turns to go in. They really were not a family. They did not enter the same door. However, this could be considered a reunion in disguise.

There is no winter vacation to speak of for high school students. Not only that, they only have half a day off on New Year’s Day.
After New Year's Day, the weekly exams were officially changed to daily exams. Every day, we had to take exams during the evening self-study period. After the exams, we still had endless homework and test papers to do when we got home.
The sleep time is not enough. Some people who secretly fall in love early have no time to do the things that are required in a relationship, and even break up before being discovered by teachers and parents.
Bai Yufan is popular and has many friends. This is the seventh person who has complained to him about a broken heart today. Six of these seven people are in their third year of high school. He is extremely glad that he did not act impulsively, otherwise he and Lin Shuang would have ended up like today.
But the fact proves that what is meant to be missed will always be missed.
On New Year's Eve, Chi Tingwan suddenly received a call from Lin Shuang, "It's not even New Year's Eve yet, why are you in such a hurry?"
"I have something to tell you..."
Chi Tingwan tore open the potato chips package nonchalantly, "What's the matter?"
"I think... I'm in love..."
Chi Tingwan paused as he took out the potato chips. "What?"
"Do you find it incredible too? I find it incredible too. But I seem to have fallen in love at first sight. However...it could also be the suspension bridge effect..."
The suspension bridge effect refers to when a person walks across a suspension bridge with trepidation, his heart rate will involuntarily speed up. If he happens to meet another person at this time, he will attribute the increased heart rate caused by this tense and exciting situation to the physiological reaction caused by the other person, and then develop feelings for the other person. It can also be further extended to mean that in a high-pressure or stimulating environment, people tend to misunderstand the tense and stimulating emotions as the attraction of someone nearby.
Lin Shuang briefly described to Chi Tingwan what had just happened.
In short, her little cousin had a conflict with her family in the evening and ran to her house.
She was responsible for sending her little cousin home, but when she rode out she found that the electric bike was completely out of power. She did not go in to say hello to her relatives, but just dropped them off at the door and left.
But I couldn't hold on halfway.
She tried to pedal back with difficulty, but the bike was too heavy and it was difficult to pedal.
She took a remote path to get home quickly. She thought that everyone would be at home having a reunion dinner on New Year's Eve and no one would come out.
But she was unlucky enough to meet a drunk gangster.
Lin Shuang kept repeating to herself frantically, hoping that someone would come out to save her.
And then it really worked.
After asking around, she found out that the person who came was her uncle's adopted son. Her uncle heard that her electric bike was out of power and was worried that she would not be able to return halfway, so he asked his son to come out and check.
"He said he was originally taking the main road, but halfway through he realized that my car was out of battery and I might have to take the side road, so he turned back."
"My cousin, who is not related to me by blood, has always been raised by my aunt, as you know. My uncle and aunt have been divorced for a long time. So at first I really thought he was just a stranger. He really looks like my ideal type. So I asked for his WeChat."
"Look, my uncle and my aunt have been divorced for so many years. Although they didn't break up before, they have been in contact all these years. My aunt also often comes back to see my little cousin. But they are divorced after all. And..."
Chi Tingwan was completely silent. "I didn't realize you were so wild before."
I'm thinking so far after just meeting you once...
"Oh, isn't this just a momentary excitement? Maybe it's just the drawbridge effect. But I'm still quite excited. After all, this is the first time I've had such a feeling in all these years. I think the probability that it's not the drawbridge effect is quite high. After all, I didn't have this feeling when Bai Yufan helped me out before. Although I don't want to admit it, that guy is actually quite good-looking, and he looks quite handsome when he beats people up."
Chi Tingwan felt a bit complicated. If Bai Yufan knew that Lin Shuang would use him as a control group, he would probably cry...
Lin Shuang talked to Chi Tingwan for a long time. Her tone was very excited, saying that she had only seen such plots in novels and never thought it would happen to her.
Chi Tingwan didn't take it seriously, thinking that she was so excited because what happened tonight was too dramatic. Just like what she said, it was like a romance novel or idol drama.
But Lin Shuang's enthusiasm lasted until April Fool's Day.
On April Fool's Day, she told Chi Tingwan that she was completely in love.
Chi Tingwan stared at the test questions the whole time, not even bothering to raise his head, "Happy April Fools' Day."
"Oh, no! I'm not kidding you. Come out with me." Lin Shuang pulled Chi Tingwan to the stairwell.
"It was around midnight. I thought he was kidding me at first. But he sounded very serious. His birthday doesn't fall on the Gregorian calendar, so this year it happened to fall on April Fool's Day. I stayed up until midnight to wish him a happy birthday, and he replied right away, saying he had a birthday present for me." As he spoke, Lin Shuang secretly took out the phone hidden in her body, "If you don't believe me, look at it!"
"Hiding your phone right before the college entrance exam?" Chi Tingwan was even more speechless after reading the message, "Dating right before the college entrance exam?"
"My grades are stable now. And there are only a few days left before the exam, so there won't be any fluctuations. Or do you have no confidence in me?" Lin Shuang pursed his lips in depression.
"I'm just a little curious. Why couldn't he wait a little longer? It's only two months away."
"Actually, it's not his fault. I accidentally drank too much when I went out to dinner with him last time... and I told him. I felt embarrassed and have been avoiding him since then. But today is his birthday, and I couldn't help but talk to him. He told me that he wanted to wait until I finished the exam before talking to him. But he was afraid that if he delayed any longer, I would give up on him... so..."
Chi Tingwan asked Fan Tong to check the man's favorability towards Lin Shuang. It was 88, which was indeed not low.
But Lin Shuang has 95% for that person. As we all know, the one who is attracted first and likes more is often the most vulnerable.
However, Chi Tingwan had no right to interfere in these matters. At most, she could only give her a few words of advice and ask her to protect herself.
Because Lin Shuang's behavior was so obvious, Bai Yufan noticed it quickly.
After getting the definite answer about love from her, Bai Yufan's heart sank completely. He forced a smile and asked, "Why are you so anxious?"
Of course, Lin Shuang couldn't tell Bai Yufan so much, "It's just... we fell in love."
Bai Yufan quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be the first one in our group to get out of being single."
"Actually, I think Wanwan and Song Shiyan are more like lovers than lovers. In my heart, they are still ahead."
Lin Shuang said that it would not affect her grades, but her scores have been declining over the past month, but not by much. Bai Yufan's score dropped significantly. Even Lin Shuang was shocked by the latest results.
The head teacher called the two of them to the office one after another, "You and Bai Yufan can talk about it later. There are less than two months left. Can't you be patient for a while?"
Lin Shuang was stunned. "What? Bai Yufan? What does this have to do with him?"
The head teacher thought she was pretending to be stupid. "Who doesn't know about the affair between you and Bai Yufan? But your grades have always been very good. I thought you two could hold your ground like Chi Tingwan. But you actually failed at the last minute."
"How can we compare with Wanwan and the others? We are just classmates!" Lin Shuang's face was filled with two words: ridiculous.
"It seems that you have discussed it and have decided not to tell anyone, right?" The head teacher's eyes were full of disappointment. "Forget it, go back."
Lin Shuang returned to the classroom in a daze. At this time, most people had gone to eat, and there were not many people in the classroom. She kept thinking about what the teacher said. Why did the teacher think that she and Bai Yufan were having an affair? She couldn't help but recall the details of the past.
Could it be because of the fight? But based on her understanding of Bai Yufan, he would help any other girl as well.
Isn't it too arbitrary to conclude that Bai Yufan has something going on with her based on this alone?
She found Bai Yufan still sitting in his seat, so she walked over and asked him why he didn't go to eat. After a few awkward words, they got down to business.
"Bai Yufan, why did your grades drop so quickly in the past half month?"
Bai Yufan knew that she must have asked this question because of something the teacher said. "I've been having insomnia lately. I've tried taking melatonin to adjust. I should be able to recover soon."
He didn't lie, he did suffer from severe insomnia recently. Everyone could see his dark circles and mental state.
But only Chi Tingwan and Song Shiyan knew the specific reason for his insomnia.
"Why do you have insomnia? Have you seen a doctor?" She and Bai Yufan had not been deskmates for a month. But he still knew about his insomnia, after all, his condition was quite obvious.
His grades did start to decline after he started suffering from insomnia. And what happened half a month ago...
Lin Shuang suddenly realized that his insomnia seemed to have started after he learned about her love affair.
Could it be that the teacher really guessed it right?
The worst situation still happened. When Lin Shuang returned home that night, her parents questioned her and asked her if she had fallen in love prematurely.
Only then did she know that her teacher had called her parents and told them that they would send a representative to the school tomorrow.
Lin Shuang insisted that she was not in a premature relationship, which made the two of them very angry.
The next day, Lin's father went to school.
Bai Yufan's parents were also called, and it was his mother who came.
Bai's mother believed in her son very much and solemnly assured the teacher that her son was definitely not in a relationship.
Because his recent activities were exactly the same as before, and the time he spent on his phone was no different from before. The only thing wrong was his insomnia. He was almost going crazy because he couldn't sleep. But after taking melatonin in the past two days, he felt better, at least he wouldn't be unable to sleep for nights.
Just ask yourself, who in love would neither go on dates nor chat on the phone for long periods of time?
He didn't even seem to be feeling smug, and he was almost going crazy due to insomnia.
After listening to what Bai Yufan's mother said, the head teacher was silent for a long time. In fact, she also felt that the two people did not look like they were in love.
Bai Yufan was in a state of heartbreak.
She couldn't help but wonder last night if their relationship had fallen through, which had affected her sleep and grades.
Listening to the head teacher's guess, Bai Yufan couldn't help but raise a bitter smile on his lips.
It would be nice if that were true.
This at least proves that Lin Shuang once liked him.
Proof that he had her briefly.
"It was my wishful thinking." Bai Yufan didn't want the situation to continue to stalemate. "I liked her, so I confessed to her. But she didn't accept me. Our relationship has become very awkward recently, and we can't even be friends. I regret it very much...that's why I can't sleep at night."
Lin Shuang's eyes suddenly turned red. Bai Yufan obviously wanted to take the blame and take all the responsibility on himself.
Father Lin looked at Bai Yufan suspiciously. In fact, he and his wife had noticed their daughter's recent abnormality. Not only recently, she had been acting strange since the beginning of spring.
But Lin Shuang had always been very obedient and sensible. Although she was not in the right state, her grades were still good, so they didn't think of it as premature love.
But now there are problems with my grades.
He and his wife both agreed that their original guess was correct and that she had done something that she shouldn't have done at her age.
But now after hearing what Bai Yufan said, he was not sure again.
Could it be that they really misunderstood?
"That's not the case. Bai Yufan never confessed his feelings to me. He just wanted to resolve the matter as soon as possible because I was implicated this time. However, his insomnia may really be related to me... Actually... I was with a boy outside the school..."
"Then he noticed it. He asked me for confirmation. I told him the truth."
"It was only after this incident that I realized his feelings..."
"I'm sorry, Auntie. Although it was unintentional, I still hurt your son."
Bai Yufan immediately laughed, "Can you please stop being so conceited? I can't sleep because of you? I admit that I did say those things just now in order to resolve this matter as soon as possible. But please don't get me wrong, I don't have any feelings towards you at all. I can't sleep because I've been under too much pressure recently."
