Twelve Units of Sweetness: Chapter 68


Luo Lisa once got herself arrested on purpose to attract her parents’ attention. After the police used her phone to call her parents who were overseas, they did not scold her as she had imagined nor did they rush back from abroad.

They hired the best lawyer to settle the matter.

Luo Lisa looked at Chen Yiran and asked him, “Why are you here?”

“Zhou Huihui saw you at the karaoke box earlier. She was afraid something would happen to you, so she messaged me.”

“Zhou Huihui?” Luo Lisa didn’t expect it to be her, after all, she had blocked her at the stairs last time, “Is she so kind-hearted?”

"Forget it if you don't believe me. Since you're fine, I'll go first."

When she saw Chen Yiran turn around and was about to leave, Luo Lisa quickly grabbed him, “Hey, wait. Why don’t we go for a drink?”

"I don't drink." Chen Yiran walked towards the intersection ahead, wanting to hail a taxi. Luo Lisa followed him, "I didn't expect you to be quite good at fighting. Those people are all older than you."

Chen Yiran was unbothered, "When I was in the third grade of elementary school, I beat the students in the sixth grade."

“Yo, so powerful?” This was the first time Chen Yiran talked about himself to her, “I can’t tell. You, a good student, also know to fight?”

"They bumped into Zhou Huihui and scared her to tears."

Luo Lisa, “....”

Although she knows Chen Yiran and Zhou Huihui were classmates in elementary school, she still said, "Can you forget about Zhou Huihui? Do you like her that much?"

Chen Yiran finally stopped and looked at her.

The street lights on this road are not very bright, but in such a dim environment, it seems that Chen Yiran's eyes are brighter.

Luo Lisa felt uncomfortable being watched by him. She subconsciously straightened her hair, and shyly said, "Why are you looking at me like this?"

Chen Yiran looked away and looked at the intersection in front of him, "I have nothing to do with Zhou Huihui. She seems to have someone else she likes too."

"Oh!"

Luo Lisa's eyes also lit up. A strong opponent is eliminated! Before she could say any happy words, she was interrupted by Chen Yiran, “I will have nothing to do with you too."

"..." Luo Lisa choked. It was not the first time she was rejected by Chen Yiran, but she became more frustrated and courageous, "How do you know if you don't try?"

“I won’t be dating anytime right now. I just want to study hard.”

"...I can study hard with you, I will not hinder your study! I promise!"

Chen Yiran looked at Luo Lisa again, "I plan to go to a foreign university. After I graduate, I will go abroad."

Luo Lisa froze.

Chen Yiran's grades have always been at the top of their grade. Many students in their school are planning to go abroad after graduation, and the school even offers a special course for studying abroad after graduation. However, she never considered that Chen Yiran would also go abroad.

"Have you decided?"

"En, my father is abroad, and he has been helping me contact schools." Although he has not officially told Chen Zui and Zhen Tian that he wants to study abroad, they know that he is planning to do this and also support his decision.

Luo Lisa was silent for a while, then yelled at him, "Why do you all go abroad? What's so good about going abroad? Is it so attractive to you?!"

Her parents have been abroad all year round. They don't even want to come back to take a look at her when something happens to her. Now even Chen Yiran wants to go abroad?

Chen Yiran looked at her quietly for a while and asked, "Your parents are also abroad, right? Didn't they let you study abroad?"

"I won't go! I won't go abroad! I hate going abroad!" Luo Lisa was still a little emotional. Of course, her parents mentioned that she should go abroad to study at a university after graduation. But she hates foreign countries, she hates everything abroad.

Chen Yiran had a faint feeling that the relationship between her and her parents was not harmonious, but he didn't expect it to be this bad. He waited for Luo Lisa to calm down a little before he said, "Before I was born, my father went abroad and divorced my mother because of this. My mother raised me alone. When I was two years old, I followed my uncle until now. I can understand your feelings, my parents also were not around when I was young, but even so, you should not give up on yourself, you can live a better life. "

Luo Lisa laughed and looked at him coldly, "You don't understand at all. You are much luckier than me. I don't have an uncle who loves me so much. My relatives only want to take care of me because of my parents’ money, no one really cares about me."

Chen Yiran pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.

It is undeniable that he is luckier than Luo Lisa at this point. If he didn’t have his uncle, he does not know if he will be like this now.

"If you want to go abroad, you can go. I wish you prosperity abroad." Luo Lisa dropped these words, turned, and left. Chen Yiran looked at her back, did not call out to her, and walked towards the other side of the road.

He called a taxi at the intersection and went straight home.

Chen Xi had already fallen asleep, and Chen Zui was sitting in the living room, waiting for Chen Yiran to come back.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Chen Zui glanced at the time on the wall, and said to Chen Yiran who was changing shoes at the door, "You came back earlier than expected."

"Oh, I just went to sing two songs and came back." After changing his shoes, Chen Yiran walked across the living room to the study, "I still haven't finished writing some papers, so I'll continue to do the questions first."

"Wait a minute." Chen Zui stopped him. He stood up and walked towards him.

"What's wrong?" Chen Yiran raised his head to look at him. He's just a sophomore this year, but he's already 1.8 meters tall. Standing with Chen Zui, he's not much shorter.

Chen Zui looked at him for a while and asked, "What happened to the lips?"

Chen Yiran froze and subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth, "Hiss."

He let out a "hiss" in pain. The corner of his mouth was injured at some point, but he didn’t notice it until now.

"Did you fight with someone?" Chen Zui asked him.

Chen Yiran lowered his head and did not speak.

"What's going on?" Chen Zui asked, not letting him go.

Chen Yiran said, "It's nothing, it's just a little conflict between the classmates. It has been resolved."

Chen Zui was silent for a while. He looked at him and said, "It’s useless for me to tell you not to fight. However, if Tiantian knows about this matter, she will worry about you again. Since you said it was resolved, I believe you really. Tomorrow you can cover the wound yourself so that Tiantian can't see it."

"...En." Chen Yiran felt that Chen Zui didn’t really care about how he got hurt but cared that his aunt would be worried when she sees it.

"There is no class tomorrow, so you should rest early tonight. Do the rest of the questions tomorrow."

"Okay." Chen Yiran didn't go to the study room anymore. He went back to his room to take a shower, wiped some medicine on the corner of his mouth, and fell asleep.

After waking up in the morning, he looked in the mirror. The bruise around the corner of his mouth had faded a lot, but he could still see it. What should he use to cover it? Foundation?

…..

Chen Yiran hesitated for a while and finally took a band-aid to cover the wound.

They made an appointment at noon today with Li Linlin’s family to eat skewers. It is said that the owner of the skewer restaurant is Gu Xin’s cousin.

Because Gu Xin often goes to his restaurant to eat kebabs, the boss opened a special membership-only branch for these celebrities for their own convenience. This is the one they made an appointment for at noon today.

Chen Xi was very excited when she woke up in the morning. After all, she was still a child, so she was very happy to be able to go out and play. Chen Yiran did his homework in his room for a while and only came out of the room when he was ready to leave.

"Brother, you finally came out! I was about to go knock on your door!" Seeing Chen Yiran coming out, Chen Xi happily ran over to take his hand and pulled him towards the door, "Linlin’s family have already Let's go, let's hurry up!"

"Okay, okay." Chen Yiran was obediently dragged towards the door by her. When Zhen Tian saw them coming, her eyes stopped on the bandage on Chen Yiran's face, "Shanshan, what's wrong with your face? Are you injured?"

"No, I have a pimple, and I just popped it, so I put a band-aid on it." Chen Yiran told Zhen Tian the excuse he had thought up for a long time.

Chen Zui glanced at him but didn't speak, Zhen Tian believed Chen Yiran's nonsense and ushered them out of the house.

Li Linlin specially wore a new dress today. They arrived a little earlier than Chen Zui's family. Li Shen reserved a private room, so the family sat inside and had some tea and snacks first.

The specialty of this restaurant is that they will serve dried mangoes to customers while they are waiting for their meal. In the past, the boss made it himself, but now the boss is too busy, the chef makes the dried mangoes for the restaurant.

"Linlin, we’re here!" The little one, Chen Xi, walked in front of the family and pushed open the door of the private room first. When Li Linlin heard her voice, she stood up and went to meet her, "Xixi, Brother Yiran, you are here!"

Yu Wan said, "Why do you only call Brother Yiran? There is also Uncle Chen and Aunt Zhen."

Li Linlin blushed a little at her mother's words and obediently called out Chen Zui and Zhen Tian again.

The seven people sat around the round table. Chen Xi sat down with her mother on her left and Chen Yiran on her right. Li Linlin was sitting on the other side of Chen Yiran.

Li Linlin was secretly delighted, Chen Yiran fully displayed his demeanor as a big brother when eating, and brought dishes for both her and Chen Xi. In the end, Yu Wan couldn't bear to see it, and said to him, "You can eat by yourself. I will take care of Linlin."

Chen Xi said, "I can also do it myself. Brother doesn't need to serve food for me."

Zhen Tian smiled. She patted Chen Xi's head and praised, "Xixi is really amazing."

Li Linlin actually hoped that Chen Yiran would serve food for her, but now that the situation has reached this point, she had no choice but to say, "Brother Yiran, you can eat by yourself. I can also take care of myself!"

Imitating Zhen Tian’s example, Chen Yiran patted her little head and praised, "Linlin is also really amazing."

Li Linlin's face immediately turned red.

The two families had a very happy meal that day. In the afternoon, everyone went to eat dessert and look at flowers. After playing for a day on Saturday, on SundayChen Yiran accompanied Chen Xi to make up the schoolwork they missed.

On Monday, because of the morning assembly, students will go to school early. When Chen Yiran and Chen Xi arrived, they happened to meet Luo Lisa at the school gate.

Her hair, which was dyed black, was dyed back to its original state, and her school uniform was loosely worn on her body like previously. She was chewing the bubble gum at the corner of her mouth when she saw Chen Yiran and Chen Xi approaching, she blew a bubble with a "pop", turned around, and left.
