Green Tea? She's Clearly a Hidden Gem!

Lin Yilin was now afflicted with the bleeding debuff, completely incapacitated!

Naturally, she had no desire to stay and play any longer, planning to return to her dormitory early to rest.

"Little Yilin, I'll walk back with you."

Jiang Linyuan cheerfully sidled up next to Lin Yilin.

My wingman plan hasn't even started yet.

Lin Yilin glanced at him, snorted, and turned her head away, not wanting to see his face.

This senior is too much, always having fun at my expense!

Today, I won't say another word to him! Let him reflect on his own!

Watching the Binary Little Sister's expression that practically screamed "I'm very angry, come and comfort me," Jiang Linyuan stood beside her and said pitifully:

"Good junior, your senior was wrong, forgive him this once. If you stay angry with him, he'll have to go back to his dorm at midnight, secretly wiping tears under the covers, then cosplay as a sunny doll hanging by your bedside..."

Seeing him get more and more outrageous, Lin Yilin couldn't help but shout:

"What nonsense are you spouting again!"

After saying it, she felt a bit annoyed and embarrassed—how did she end up responding to him again!

"Junior, it's settled then, I'll walk back with you!"

Seeing she wasn't truly furious, Jiang Linyuan cheerfully waved his hand and made the decision unilaterally.

Strangely enough.

Lin Yilin had initially planned to make some excuse to stop Jiang Linyuan from escorting her, but when the words reached her lips, she couldn't say anything, only nodding her head.

The two walked together, leaving the villa and heading towards the subway station.

It was dusk, the sun setting behind the western hills, with vast stretches of fiery red clouds painting the sky, exceptionally brilliant.

Along the way, neither of them said much.

This made Lin Yilin, walking beside him, feel gloomy again.

When the senior talks, she thinks he loves to tease her, always making her puff up with anger.

But when he doesn't speak, she feels empty inside.

He's usually so talkative, why is he silent now!

Stupid senior! Perverted senior!

After viciously insulting Jiang Linyuan in her heart, Lin Yilin looked at his profile and decided to initiate a conversation herself:

"Senior..."

"Hmm? What's up? Junior, do you want me to carry you on my back?"

Jiang Linyuan quickly picked up the thread, asking with a smile.

"How could that be!"

Lin Yilin exclaimed:

"How could I just casually climb onto someone of the opposite sex?"

"Then junior can carry me."

Jiang Linyuan shot back without hesitation.

Hearing this, Lin Yilin was both angry and embarrassed:

"I can't carry you! Besides, I'm not feeling well right now!"

"So you actually considered it?"

Lin Yilin fell silent, her face red, swaying her body and deliberately bumping into Jiang Linyuan.

Jiang Linyuan didn't dodge, just chuckled:

"Then someday when junior is feeling better, carry your senior."

"Carry my foot!"

Lin Yilin gritted her teeth in frustration, wishing she could bite Jiang Linyuan, and blurted out as if possessed:

"You should get that Yu Songsong to carry you!"

Immediately after saying it, she felt a twinge of regret.

Because those words were too easily misunderstood, crossing a line.

Lin Yilin slowed her pace, lowered her head, and stole a glance at Jiang Linyuan.

Thump, thump.

Her heart pounded incessantly, a girl's bashfulness beating against her heart like wild drumming on a leather drum.

Damn, how come I never noticed before that this Binary Little Sister could be so cringe too?

Looking at Lin Yilin's transparent expression, Jiang Linyuan could roughly guess what was on her mind.

Seriously, junior, it's just one sentence.

Do you really think I'd assume you like me just from that?

"Junior, have you been corrupted by that Su Muzhi? You're being a bit average confidence here."

Jiang Linyuan's blunt words pierced through Lin Yilin's naive heart, instantly dispersing the ambiguous atmosphere.

The little deer prancing in the young girl's heart transformed into a freight truck crashing through!

"Senior, you're the one who's average confidence, spouting nonsense without knowing what you're talking about, teasing girls without any sense of propriety, you'll end up locked in Azkaban someday, tormented by Dementors every day, someone like you definitely cough cough cough..."

The long-absent Binary Little Sister chatterbox made a comeback, though her proficiency wasn't quite up to par.

Halfway through, Lin Yilin started coughing uncontrollably, her little face flushed from choking.

"Here, water."

Jiang Linyuan chuckled, gently patting her back while pulling a bottle of water from his bag and handing it over.

Lin Yilin took the water, quickly took a big gulp, then shot an annoyed, embarrassed look at Jiang Linyuan and stomped on his foot.

Then, like a little rabbit, she quickly ran ahead a few steps, deliberately putting distance between them.

But halfway through her run, she seemed to realize something, stiffened her face into a serious expression, and forcefully shoved the water bottle in her hand back to Jiang Linyuan.

Then she ran off again.

Jiang Linyuan, watching from the side, found this absolutely hilarious.

He strode over:

"Junior, junior, liking me isn't something to be embarrassed about, just say it openly, and I'll reject you directly!"

Hearing this, Lin Yilin's footsteps halted abruptly. She took a deep breath, her eyes wide as she glared at him:

"I don't like senior! Impossible!"

Hopefully.

Jiang Linyuan nodded with satisfaction:

"Just as I thought, junior isn't the type to have ulterior motives towards me."

You're the one with ulterior motives!

Lin Yilin shouted in her heart.

"In that case, I'll consider junior one of my own."

Jiang Linyuan's expression suddenly turned serious, making Lin Yilin beside him tense up, thinking he was about to say something important.

"Junior! Listen to me..."

Jiang Linyuan's tone lowered. Lin Yilin held her breath.

"Become my wingman!"

?

"I hope junior can help me chase girls."

Lin Yilin laughed in anger:

"Senior wants to chase that Yu Songsong?"

"Hmm..."

Jiang Linyuan pondered for a moment, then said:

"That's the plan for now..."

What kind of plan is 'for now'?

Are you saying you'll chase other girls later? And you want me to help you!

"No way!"

Lin Yilin flatly refused.

"Good junior, your senior is begging you this once..."

"I'm not listening, not listening, not listening..."

"Junior, have you forgotten your quest for knowledge at Hogwarts..."

"Don't say it, don't say it, don't say it!"

Hearing Jiang Linyuan bring up her dark history again, Lin Yilin's face turned as red as the setting sun. She jumped up and covered his mouth.

The junior's little hand is quite soft, the texture somewhat like jelly.

Jiang Linyuan thought.

Lin Yilin also realized her action was a bit excessive. She hurriedly withdrew her hand, not daring to look at Jiang Linyuan, stammering as she quickly changed the subject:

"If you want me to help you, senior, then you have to tell me why you want to chase that Yu Songsong?"

"Because I'm kind."

Ahhhh! This stupid senior!

Lin Yilin clenched her fists.

"Hahaha, junior, I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet, listen to me."

Jiang Linyuan soothed her:

"I'm not asking junior to do anything excessive, just help me gather some information about her."

"I haven't agreed yet!"

"Don't sweat the small stuff, those who achieve great things don't get bogged down in minor details!"

"That's hardly a minor detail!"

Lin Yilin was too exhausted to retort.

As they spoke, the two had already entered the subway station. The train heading to Xingnan University was approaching from the distance.

Lin Yilin looked at Jiang Linyuan beside her and suddenly asked:

"Senior."

"What is it?"

"Am I prettier, or is Yu Songsong prettier?"

Inside the subway station, the gentle lights fell on Lin Yilin's hair, making her seem to glow.

Looking at her hesitant expression, lightly biting her lower lip, Jiang Linyuan said with a smile:

"Junior is the second prettiest."

Hearing this, a sour feeling rose in Lin Yilin's heart, but she didn't show it, raising a little eyebrow:

"Hmph, so Yu Songsong is first then."

"Hahaha, what kind of goods is she, to deserve that? The first prettiest is your senior, me!"

Hearing this, the bit of bitterness in Lin Yilin's heart vanished completely. A sweet smile appeared on her face, but she didn't want Jiang Linyuan to see it, turning her head away as she said:

"Average confidence... average confidence male senior!"
