Chapter 241: Unwilling to A and Unwilling to B, Won't Play With You Anymore_2
Lin Li's voice was hearty.
He indeed had the confidence to match it.
Last night he cashed in a portion of the gold, not turning in 'much', but now Lin Li's card saw an increase of sixty thousand yuan.
A mere hundred grams of gold—indeed, not much.
Lin Li had the hundred grams processed through several shops that have gold recycling services. When the amount is small, the shopkeepers generally don't ask for proof of the gold's source and also transfer the money quickly.
There was even one shop that said they wouldn't require Lin Li's identity information, but the recycling price would be fifty less per gram.
Dang, Lin Li suspected they thought he was a thief, but where would a thief find this quick way to earn money? Thus Lin Li righteously refused.
If he agreed, wouldn't that clearly tell them his gold had issues?
Lin Li wouldn't do something so self-deceptive.
For the remaining million in gold, Lin Li plans not to cash it in for now.
Even if he continues to recycle separately, Xiling is ultimately a small place—such a sudden influx of gold would indeed cause people to feel something's off.
Better to wait until the money in his card runs out before thinking about it.
"So much? Where did you embezzle these funds from?"
Chen Yu Ying obviously trusted Lin Li, yet couldn't pinpoint how Lin Li managed it, so she asked out of curiosity.
"Of course, from overdue wages gathered from the migrant workers under my management." Lin Li replied upon hearing.
Chen Yu Ying chuckled softly, the crescent moon hung at the treetops, then nodded, not pressing further:
"Since you're being a big shot, I won't hold back. I probably don't have anything on this week, a 90% chance I can go. I'll inform my family on Friday night and give you a definitive answer after that."
"Why is there a 10% chance you won't go? How about this, class monitor, tell your family my name! Say it's a familiar face, don't worry!" Lin Li patted his chest.
"Sorry, I misspoke, I actually have a 10% chance I can go." Chen Yu Ying, always receptive to Lin Li's words, nodded, then corrected herself.
Lin Li: "?"
"Class monitor, your words are quite hurtful."
"Meh~ I'm going to ask Wanqiu and Sihan about it this afternoon." Chen Yu Ying smiled and said.
"OK."
After chatting a bit, when the lunch break bell rang, the two began studying.
In the classroom, the perpetual number two seed of High One Class Four's three thousand meter events, Wang Yuezhi, even remained lingering without daring to write after the room quieted down.
He couldn't believe what he'd overheard from the latter two.
The likes of "weekend," "going out," "handgun play," "bang bang bang"?
What is this?
Isn't this involved with something improper?
No!!!
...
"Hey, what a coincidence, just finished eating?"
In the afternoon, Lin Li carrying his mug came to the water dispenser for water and happened to see Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu coming out of the toilet.
Thus, due to his words, his eighteen-hundred school pants acquired a side-kick shoe print.
"Did the class monitor talk to you two, are you going or not?" Lin Li didn't mind, asking instead.
His gaze rested on the water cooler that, with a simple touch, the water bubbled out without stopping; hah, what a sensitive little demon it was.
Pure machine burn.
"I'm about the same as Ying Bao, I probably can go. I'll inform my family this weekend and give you a definitive answer." Ding Sihan nodded after hearing him.
"I'm not going." Qu Wanqiu shook her head.
"Why not go, isolating us four? Playing special or eighty? Ha, Qu Wanqiu, I've decided, I will deliver the request to have you kicked out of the group chat." Lin Li leveled a cold eye at Qu Wanqiu.
Qu Wanqiu: "..."
"I didn't bring my mobile, so I don't want to stay on campus." Qu Wanqiu explained.
Lin Li was enlightened.
This could truly be understood, Bai Bufan always had his phone, and thus, apart from not being able to play online games when staying on campus, the difference between staying over the weekend and going home was not much, so he was completely indifferent to staying on campus over weekends, and indeed was often one who stayed.
After all, sometimes the round trip of an hour and a half really wasted time.
While Chen Yu Ying and Ding Sihan were originally from Xiling anyhow, even if they want to go, they can normally go home over the weekend.
Not bringing the mobile, and being someone whose home isn't in Xiling, left Qu Wanqiu in a relatively awkward position.
Not an exam week, and still wanting to go out, if Qu Wanqiu returned on Friday and came back Saturday, it indeed put her in a bit of difficulty; not going home and staying at school until Saturday, then having no phone to use, makes the weekend feel wasted, and the time at school would be quite dull.
"I have a spare phone at home I could let you use." Lin Li thought about it and still said, "Besides being a bit slow, having screen touch issues, needing charging for two hours and only lasting five minutes, and occasionally shutting off automatically, there's no other major issues."
Qu Wanqiu: "..."
"You call that minor issues?! It's more like a brick!"
"Find me a brick that doubles as a flashlight and we'll see?" Lin Li frowned to vindicate his spare phone.
Qu Wanqiu: "..."
"Hey, I remember my mom phased out an Apple 16 from the factory at home; Qu Wanqiu, if you don't mind using Apple, you could use it." Lin Li snapped his fingers, suddenly remembering and spoke excitedly.
"Huh? I'm originally an Apple user," Qu Wanqiu's expression was surprised, yet the surprise wasn't about Apple:
"Apple 16 is already phased out? I'm still using 14, didn't your mom swap as soon as the Pro came out? So lavish, now I'm convinced, Lin Li, you're a covert little rich lady."
"You are the little rich lady, your whole family are little rich ladies."
Qu Wanqiu touched, "Thank you for the blessings."
"However, it's not as grand as you make it out to be, the reason for switching was mentioned before, because that Apple 16 was from the factory." Lin Li explained.
