Chapter 10

Qu Yun kept mulling over in his heart: “Big brother, all the injustices you’ve suffered are over! Wake up soon!”

Director Lin and Teacher Huang were about to leave, and Chen Li saw them off all the way to the door.

“Director Lin, Teacher Huang, this was really an accident. Look, I hurt my ankle, that’s why I asked Ling Mo to deliver the buns to his uncle… I really didn’t think about the bus not running!”

“Ankle injury…” Teacher Huang looked down at Chen Li’s ankle, “I saw you walking pretty well just now.”

Chen Li’s heart panicked. She forgot to act!

“In my opinion, whether you forgot about the last bus or not, it’s still wrong to make a teenager go so far to deliver something at night. Is an adult eating a bun more important than a student’s safety?”

Director Lin shook her head and was about to leave.

Chen Li couldn’t think of a suitable excuse for a while, and before Director Lin left, she gave Chen Li a warning look.

“This parent, we know how you treat Ling Mo. For example, Li Yuanhang’s room, if you put some effort into getting a bunk bed, both children can live there. But you actually let Ling Mo live in such a small storage room, with wet clothes hanging there.

 If I remember correctly, you are qualified to live in this house because you are Ling Mo’s guardian, right? Although Teacher Huang and I don’t have the right to interfere in your family affairs, if Ling Mo is harmed, or his rights are violated and he applies to revoke your guardianship, Teacher Huang and I will tell the truth to the judge.”

After Director Lin finished speaking, the man upstairs who had been working overtime came up. He looked up thoughtfully at Chen Li.

Chen Li saw this and thought, “Oh no, this man moved in recently, I don’t know if he’s tight-lipped.”

“By the way, we think the parent meeting liaison officer should be given to other students’ parents. You have two students to take care of, so focus on taking care of Li Yuanhang and Ling Mo’s studies and life.”

After Director Lin and Teacher Huang left, Chen Li sat on the sofa and suddenly threw all the things on the coffee table down.

“Mom… what’s wrong?” Li Yuanhang opened the door and looked at Chen Li in fear.

“Do you know that you just copied Ling Mo’s homework, but you’ve ruined your parents’ lives!”

“It’s just a parent meeting liaison officer…”

“This liaison officer is a network of contacts, you understand? I finally found out that one of the parents in your class is a senior engineer! If we can find him, we can use the excuse of being the parent meeting liaison officer to get closer to him! Make him transfer your dad from that broken factory back to the city!”

Li Yuanhang was stunned.

Chen Li pressed her head hard. At this moment, she finally understood what Ling Mo meant when he said that Li Yuanhang should pay the price for liking to fight!

The school teachers may not be able to interfere in their family affairs, but they can question Chen Li’s character, prevent her from becoming the parent meeting liaison officer, and thus prevent her from climbing up the ladder of advantageous resources among parents, and prevent her husband from coming back!

At this time, Qu Yun opened the door and took Ling Mo to his little world.

“This is my room.”

Ling Mo took a quick look. Qu Yun’s desk was still covered with a math notebook. The room wasn’t big, but it was definitely not small. You could tell that the Mo family’s income was good.

“Do you want to sleep on the outside or the inside?” Qu Yun asked with a happy look.

“Either is fine.”

“Then you sleep on the inside. I’m afraid you might fall off if you sleep on the outside.” Qu Yun touched his own belly fat and thought, “If we really have to sleep together, I’m not sure I won’t squeeze Ling Mo to the ground.”

Ling Mo stood in front of the desk, looking down at Qu Yun’s notebook. The yellow light made Ling Mo’s features softer.

“Is this your notebook?”

“Uh? What’s wrong?” Qu Yun turned around and asked.

“The formula in the fourth question is wrong. The third step from the end in the fifth question is wrong.”

“Ah? Really? I thought I got it right!” Qu Yun leaned over.

“You’re so stupid.”

The voice was soft, still Ling Mo’s unique cold and aloof tone, but for some reason, it didn’t feel as uncomfortable.

Qu Yun sat down at the desk and looked carefully, “It seems like it really is… Then you’re going to help me all the way… Can you teach me how to do the last few questions? Otherwise, I’ll be burning the midnight oil and you won’t be able to sleep either…”

“Get up.” Ling Mo raised his chin.

Qu Yun immediately got up and respectfully gave his seat to Ling Mo. Ling Mo took a piece of scratch paper and started writing.

Qu Yun realized that Ling Mo’s fingers were also very beautiful, long, but not the kind that were slender like scallions, they had a hint of strength.

Ling Mo wrote and talked about the direction of his thinking.

Unlike the teacher’s way of lecturing, Qu Yun found that he could easily follow Ling Mo’s thinking. It was as if he had suddenly opened up his Ren and Du meridians, his brain was clear.

“Do you understand?” Ling Mo asked.

“I think so.” Qu Yun scratched his head.

Ling Mo tore up the scratch paper and threw it in the trash can, not giving Qu Yun a chance to put it back together and copy it.

“So stingy…” Qu Yun thought to himself.

Qu Yun grumbled in his heart, while redoing the questions he got wrong.

When he finished the last line, he let out a sigh of relief.

He turned his head, originally just wanting to ask Ling Mo to check if he got it right, but he didn’t expect him to be propping his chin, looking in Qu Yun’s direction. Qu Yun felt that Ling Mo hadn’t moved since he started doing the questions. Was this guy watching him the whole time?

At this time, Ling Mo nodded and said, “Put it away.”

Meaning he got them all right.

“Uh, were you watching me the whole time?” Qu Yun grinned and leaned over, “I know I’m fat now, but my eyelashes are long! I heard that guys with long eyelashes are handsome! I’ll definitely be handsome when I lose weight!”

“You’re crazy. You’re a fat guy now.” Ling Mo turned his head away.

At this time, Liang Ru came in with pajamas and put them on the bed, “Ling Mo, just wear Xiaobai’s old pajamas for now. Make do with it!”

“Thank you, Auntie!”

Liang Ru saw the two of them studying at the desk, and her son was looking very serious, and her fondness for Ling Mo increased even more.

Ling Mo took the clothes and went to take a shower.

When he came back, Qu Yun had finished the other exercises.

“You’re back? Can you check for me, did I get it right?” Qu Yun personally flipped through the homework page by page.

Ling Mo just glanced at each page lightly and said, “You can go to sleep!”

Qu Yun stretched and was about to go to bed, but Ling Mo, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, raised his foot and pressed against Qu Yun’s belly.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but it seemed like Ling Mo deliberately stepped on it a few more times.

“Don’t sleep with me if you don’t take a shower.”

Qu Yun was a little suspicious, is this his house or Ling Mo’s house?

“Oh, you’re not a girl, why are you so picky!” Qu Yun was about to squeeze onto the bed, but Ling Mo’s foot pressed against Qu Yun’s belly again.

“Then I’ll sleep on the floor.”

Qu Yun resigned himself to his fate and turned around to take another shower.

When he came back, Ling Mo was already asleep against the wall.

Yesterday, he still looked like he didn’t want to be bothered, but today, he slept with me.

Fate is truly a wonderful thing.

Qu Yun lay down. In the quiet, he could hear Ling Mo’s breathing.

The smell of Ling Mo was also in his nose. Although it was clearly the same body wash as his, Qu Yun felt something different.

He didn’t know if Ling Mo was asleep. Normally, he could fall asleep very easily, but now he was looking at the ceiling, thinking that there was someone next to him. He didn’t dare to turn over or move, afraid of squeezing him… He couldn’t sleep.

“Ling Mo… Ling Mo, are you asleep?” Qu Yun asked softly.

“Asleep.” Ling Mo’s voice was cold.

“… How can you answer me if you’re asleep…” Qu Yun suddenly thought of something and said excitedly, “I’ll tell you, my deskmate is an idiot. He said that Newton invented the light bulb! He’s blind! It was clearly Einstein!”

“Idiot.” Ling Mo said coldly.

“Yeah, silly, right?”

“I’m talking about you.”

“Ah? What’s wrong with me?” Qu Yun looked completely clueless.

“It’s Edison.” After speaking, Ling Mo turned over and faced away from Qu Yun, indicating that he didn’t want to have a stupid conversation with him.

Gradually, sleepiness came over Qu Yun.

He let out a soft snore and fell asleep.

Ling Mo, who had been looking at the wall, slowly turned around and looked at Qu Yun sleeping.

When his eyes adjusted to the darkness, Qu Yun’s side profile became clearer.

He stretched out his finger and gently poked Qu Yun’s face. Qu Yun mumbled.

In a daze, Qu Yun felt as if something was constantly brushing against his eyelids, very light, very careful, like it was stroking Qu Yun’s eyelashes.

Over and over again…

Relentlessly.

The next morning, Qu Yun woke up with a sneeze before the alarm went off.

He found that two-thirds of his blanket had fallen to the ground, leaving only one corner on his belly.

Qu Yun grabbed it for a while and pulled the blanket up. He was about to continue sleeping when the alarm went off.

He heard the sound of the blanket moving next to him, and Qu Yun realized that Ling Mo was sleeping next to him!
