Chapter 22: Cheating Pairing

  "Ride slowly, be careful! I won't let anything happen to you." Liu Yifei watched as Wang He rode her bike like she was drunk, and quickly caught up to ride alongside her.

  The car of King Jin Wang suddenly slowed down, and the golden ride also stabilized a lot. But he just looked ahead with both eyes, never looking at Liu Yifei even once.

  Looking at Wang He's red face, Liu Yifei smiled and said: "Just now you scared me to death. How did that person suddenly appear like a ghost? Fortunately, you didn't fall down, otherwise we would have repeated the situation last time."

  Wang He's face turned even redder and he didn't utter a word.

  "It's good that you're light, I was able to catch you in time. This small road is really too secluded now. Next time we should avoid taking this road, just in case there are bad people and it's easy to get into danger."

  Liu Yifei mentioned the matter from just now, but didn't mention the awkwardness between the two of them. This made Wang A finally let out a sigh of relief and said in a low voice: "If we don't take this road, we'll have to make a big detour."

  "If you're afraid of being far apart, then let's go together from now on. I'll set a time for tomorrow and wait for you."

  "Wow!" Wang Ah looked at Liu Yifei with some surprise, her small face flushing red and looking very cute.

  "Are we good friends? Of course, I'll be responsible for your safety. My schedule is quite busy, so I'm not sure which weekend I can accompany you. Let's set a time, if we meet up, we'll take the small path together; if not, you can spend some extra time taking the big road."

  Wang Ah nodded lightly and said with a blush: "What time is certain?"

  "Our class is going to Youth Lake tomorrow, so I need to come to school a bit earlier. We agreed to meet at 9:30 in the school. Are you going or not?"

  "Anyway," Wang hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm still not going. I don't know the students in your class very well."

  Liu Yifei was actually afraid that Wang Ah would go to Jin Zhongxin's new house, and those big mouths would definitely make fun of Wang He. Wang He's face is so tender, how can he bear their teasing? In the middle, it was said that Jin Youmei and Jin Chumei would also go, and they would be even more chaotic, like a pot of porridge.

  Thinking about it now, I find it a bit laughable that in my past life, I could only have unrequited love for He Yuanyan. Now, it's gotten to the point where I need to consider balancing multiple girls. And yet, I don't even have any real relationship with any of them - we're just ordinary friends. If something really happens, wouldn't that be a headache? In the era of online novels, I've read those kinds of stories too, or else I wouldn't have accepted this rebirth so easily. But in those books, it's always about harem or polygamy - things that are hard to understand. Now, which woman doesn't have the idea of exclusive ownership? Who would be willing to share a man with other women? It's clearly unrealistic.

  "Are you unhappy?" Wang He turned his head and looked at Liu Yifei with some trepidation.

  Liu Yifei smiled and drove away the messy thoughts in his mind. He said, "If I didn't think of you, I would have thought of other things. So, are you going with me tomorrow?"

  "Sorry, I won't be able to come so early tomorrow."

  "What's wrong with being a silly girl? We're good friends, but you can't change anything for me. You still have to do things according to your own habits. Got it?"

  "En." Wang nodded slightly, a smile also appearing at the corner of his mouth. This sentence made her feel warm and fuzzy inside, just like an older brother teasing his little sister.

  At this time, the two had already walked out of the small road. Both got off the car, Xiao Liu took out a book and gave it to Wang Ani. Wang An looked at the brand new one: "Are these all new books?"

  Liu Yifei smiled and said to his brother: "You take your time to read this book, I've read it before, but the old one is gone, so I got you a few new ones, they don't cost much. If you don't consider me as a friend, then tell me about the money."

  "Alright, alright," Wang He smiled and said, "If that's all, then thank you."

  "Come on, let's go home, Jin. Ride slowly."

  "Hmm!" Wang He nodded again, pushed the car a few steps forward, then turned back to look at Liu Yifei before riding off. After pedaling only twice, he turned back and waved at Liu Yifei before drifting away in the gentle summer breeze.

  In the evening, the parents returned home, and both of them were in good spirits. Mother still couldn't help but scold Father a couple of times for not doing well with some business deals. Father didn't mind it at all. Now that business is going well, the prices of their stores and counters in Xīn Xīng Shopping Mall are increasing every day. There are always people who want to buy their counters and boutique shops, which also makes them very happy.

  Liu Yifei is also used to this kind of thing, and Jin is also considering doing something for his father. However, the funds are not enough yet, so they need to wait a little longer. The small quarrels between parents are also considered a real home, which makes Liu Yifei especially nostalgic.

  Additionally, the parents told Liu Yifei that next Wednesday is Grandma's 70th birthday and everyone in the Jin family has to go, so they also invited Liu Yifei. Liu Yifei readily agreed as he hasn't met these relatives from his own family since his rebirth. Now he really wants to take a look.

  The next morning, Jin Liu Yifei made an appointment with Zhong Xinfeng and the two rushed to school together. Basically, it was still the same group of people who gathered on Zhong Xinfeng's birthday last time. Although Jin was in the same class as them, he only had a good relationship with a few people. Jin always had his own small circle, although there wasn't much competition or friction between these circles. When organizing activities, it was usually the same group of people involved.

  Liu Yifei and his friends were a group of people who loved playing games. There were few girls involved, but because Liu Yifei and He Yuexuan had a good relationship, Jin brought He Yuexuan's little friend into the circle, making them the most enviable small clique in the class.

  This makes Xin Feng Liu Baowang and them feel very proud in class, when talking to boys and girls, they all feel confident.

  He Muyan is wearing a light blue Li Ning sportswear today. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail, looking very spirited. Compared to her usual cold and proud demeanor, she exuded more youthful vitality, naturally capturing the attention of all the boys.

  Everyone gathered together and went downstairs. When Jin was taking the car, several classmates didn't ride bicycles, like He Yuexuan, whose home is in the city. Normally, she takes the bus to school and lives on campus, which is also for convenience of studying.

  There were fourteen people in total, seven men and seven women, but only seven bicycles.

  "Does anyone have any objections if each of us brings a girlfriend?" Zhong Xin Feng smiled slyly as he looked at the crowd. He rarely had the chance to bring a girl, and his physique was enough to make most girls take a step back. Today, he finally grasped the opportunity and wouldn't let it go even if he died.

  Everyone immediately started booing. On the issue of who brought whom, a bigger divergence emerged, and none of the girls were willing to ride in the same car as Xin Feng, making Xin Feng feel very depressed.

  "Hehe" I think it's like this, we'll write the names of our female classmates on a piece of paper, and then you guys draw lots. Whoever gets whose name has to take them out. No one is allowed to cheat! What do you think? Li Ya immediately came up with an idea.

  This idea is fair and everyone naturally has no opinion. Jin Li Ya immediately took action, Jin made seven paper slips, and then pinched them in her hand, only revealing a little bit of the tip of the paper slip.

  "Alright, now it's time to draw lots. Liu Yifei, you go first." Li Ya walked up to Liu Yifei.

  "Why did he smoke first? I want to smoke first." Jin Tiexin suddenly stopped.

  Li Ya's eyes widened and she said: "This is my master's idea. I say who draws first, do you have any opinion?"

  "Whatever. I won't bother with you. Let Yi Fei go first then." Chuan Xin Feng, despite his massive build, was also at a loss for what to do when faced with Li Ya's ferocious appearance.

  Li Ya raised her hand in front of Liu Yifei and then smiled slyly: "Liu Yifei, the opportunity to get He Yuexin is yours now. You'd better grasp it well."

  Classmates immediately burst out laughing, and now even if they knew that there was nothing between Liu Yifei and He Yuexuan, some people's hearts still couldn't help but push them together. Of course, these people were all friends of Liu Yifei and He Yuexuan, and if it were others, they definitely wouldn't have such thoughts.

  He Yuanyan immediately scolded and shouted: "Li Yazi, if you talk nonsense again, I'll tear your mouth off. It's possible that today is going out to play, He Yuanyan is obviously more lively than usual.

  Li Ya burst out laughing and said, "I only gave him the first chance. I didn't say he would hit you that hard, why are you so tense? Are you afraid Liu Yifei won't get a turn?"

  Go away with your gold, I'm too lazy to care about the bottle. Nai He Yueyan glanced at Li Ya and saw that Jin was staring at Liu Yifei's hand, which had already been raised. In this crowd, in her subconscious mind, she still hoped that Liu Yifei would draw her name.

  Liu Yifei smiled slightly and said: "Then I'll draw a gold one to see if I'm lucky enough to become the driver of which beauty." With that, he went to draw one of the paper slips. He drew one but didn't look at it immediately, instead, he looked at Li Ya with a hint of uncertainty. Seeing Li Ya blinking at him, Liu Yifei suddenly understood the underlying meaning. Liu also cooperated and said: "This one doesn't feel right, let's change to another one."

  This made Liu Yifei involuntarily feel amused. Jin also felt quite entertained that he had a girl helping him cheat to get in the same car as He Yuexuan. If Jin didn't take advantage of this opportunity, it would be a waste. Jin tried again twice, and when he grabbed the fourth one, he finally took it out.

  Zhong Xin Feng snatched the paper strip at this time. He quickly opened it and immediately shouted: "You little bastard is really too lucky, Jin suddenly drew He Yuanyuan, I wanted to draw He Yuanyuan with you, what a good opportunity slipped away from me."

  "Congratulations! Congratulations." The boys and girls suddenly cheered together. Jin Liya even pushed He Yuexuan and shouted: "Liu Yifei, He Yuexuan is now in your hands. Today, everything belongs to you."

  Liu Yifei immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Jin. I will definitely take good care of He Yuexuan's classmate and make sure she gets on the first bus today."

  At this time, the atmosphere of joking was much greater than that of ambiguity. Jin Huayun didn't feel embarrassed at all. With a "heh heh", she stood beside Liu Yifei.

  Then everyone continued to draw, and Xīn Fēng was very lucky to have drawn Lǐ Yà's name. This made Lǐ Yà extremely angry. Jīn had come up with this idea herself, but at the time she was only thinking of tricking Hé Yuèyán, and had forgotten about her own fate. In the end, she could only accept her fate.

  A group of people were laughing and chatting as they boarded the bus. The seven boys, including Jin, all got on the bus, calling out to their respective companions to get on.

  Li Ya looked at Liu Yifei's old-fashioned straight-beam bicycle and suddenly shouted: "I say, Liu Yifei Jin, you exchange cars with Old Cow, this fool riding this car is really a waste, I'll just compromise with him, you and Yuexuan ride this one."

  Among the seven bicycles, Liu Yifei's bike is really old-fashioned. Everyone else has a sleek, sloping-framed bike, but Liu Yifei's is straight-framed. If Liu Yifei and He Yuexian ride together, it's a bit of an eyesore. But He Yuexian's suggestion is actually not bad.

  Xin Feng let out a sorrowful cry and said: "Alas, why am I so unlucky? Why do I have to exchange my newly bought car with Liu Yifei just because he's handsome? Is it okay to bully people just because one is good-looking?"

  "What's wrong with you, aren't you convinced? Humph! Li Ya puffed out her chest and put her hands on her hips."

  "I'm convinced. How could I not be when Li Ya is willing to ride in my car? Even if it's a cow cart, I'd be happy."

  "This is just about right." Li Ya said with a snort of laughter. Jin was rarely noticed by boys under He Yuanyuan's halo, but today Nian Zhen Xinfeng spoke in such a way that it sounded extremely pleasant to the ear. Even his chubby appearance didn't seem so annoying anymore.

  Liu Yifei smiled and said, "No need to change, Old Cow classmate is lucky enough to ride with Li Ya classmate, how can I let Li Ya lose face? Jin He Yuanyan, do you know if you are willing to sit in this old and broken car with me?"

  He Yuanyan looked at Liu Yifei's calm and composed gaze, smiled and said: "With you as the driver today, even a broken car can become a good car. Of course, I want to sit in it." In her heart, she had a new understanding of Liu Yifei. At this time, high school students still have a bit of vanity in their hearts, always asking their parents to buy them a good-looking car. But Liu Yifei rode such a bike, not only was he not unnatural, but even if he wanted to pick her up, he would be just as calm and composed. This is not something that ordinary boys can do.

  Then please. Liu Yifei made a welcoming gesture and waited quietly for He Yuanyuan to get on the car.

  He Yuanyan smiled slightly and first supported Liu Yifei's waist, then twisted her body and sat sideways on the back seat of Liu Yifei's car, naturally and calmly.

  Just as everyone was about to leave, Jin He Ming suddenly rushed in from the school gate. Jin waved his hand at Liu Yi Fei and others, panting and running while shouting loudly: "Wait a minute, there's me too! I also want to go with you guys!"
