Chapter 121: Chapter 121 Quietly Watch Her Act

"Brother Mu, knock once if you miss me and if you don’t, never mind!"

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and Ye Li quickly said, "You can’t lie, okay? If you lie, your nose will grow longer, and you’ll end up like Pinocchio."

The girl’s voice was playfully ferocious.

But the person listening couldn’t get angry at all—only found it incredibly endearing.

Lu Xiaoxiao, just entered and tiptoeing with a smile, went straight to the beanbag chair to cuddle up and quietly watched Ye Li emanating cuteness.

Dada!

Two crisp sounds came from the phone, like a brush tapping on a palette.

"Wow!"

Ye Li’s voice was exaggerated, "Brother Mu, you actually miss me so much you can’t eat or sleep! Okay, I get it, I miss you too. But you can’t blame me, it’s..."

She almost let "your dad" slip out, but catching Xiaoxiao’s eyes, full of mirth, Ye Li said, "We had planned to hang out on Saturday, but somebody made plans with friends. It was even my idea to pick you up. So... you know, it’s really not my fault!"

In the study, Xiao Bao glared defiantly.

Fu Yanci: ...

"Brother Mu, I don’t have class Friday afternoon, so I’ll come to the old house to play with you after school, okay?"

Da.

"Then it’s settled! We’ll see each other soon, so eat well, sleep well, and we’ll meet on Friday!"

Dada!

After the call ended, Fu Yanci looked at Xiao Bao, whose mood was clearly uplifted, and felt secretly amazed.

"Alright, it’s time to sleep now!"

He patted his shoulder, Fu Yanci bent down to meet those bright, dark eyes, "See you on Friday!"

Xiao Bao nodded, turned around, and went into the bathroom.

The sound of running water started and stopped as the little one diligently brushed his teeth.

When he came out, he obediently lay in bed and turned on the night light.

Fu Yanci left the room and made a phone call to Xiao Bao’s doctor before driving straight to the clinic.

In room 520 of Fanxing Apartment, Lu Xiaoxiao laughed, "Lizi, you’re pretty good at coaxing kids."

"Can’t help it..."

Ye Li shook her head, sighing, "It’s just that he is so adorable that everyone loves him and flowers bloom at his sight."

Amused by her exaggerated acting, Xiaoxiao nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, you’re unbelievably cute, okay? Oh, by the way, Lizi..."

Xiaoxiao’s tone changed as she asked, "What about that Jasmine flower issue? How will the police handle it? She’s not really going to jail, is she?"

Ye Li was taken aback, "Jail?"

When she saw Tang Yanhui on Friday morning, he had seemed resigned, saying that there was no further investigation possible.

After all, the public apology was posted; even if it wasn’t sincere, there wasn’t much chance of winning even if it went to court, and it would be a waste of time and effort.

How had it escalated to jail time now?

"You don’t know yet?"

Xiaoxiao looked at Ye Li, clearly unaware of what had happened, and pointed at the phone, "It’s all over the forums, that annoying Jasmine flower got taken away by the police. Apparently, she could get sentenced heavily or at least detained. Plus, she also got disciplined by the school, and all of this will go on her record for life."

He used to be a promising senior in the computer science department with outstanding grades and a bright future.

But Liu Zimo’s own mischief had doomed him to a dim and lackluster graduation season.

This weekend, the hottest topic on the forums was this very incident.

Ye Li clicked into the forum and saw a lengthy disciplinary notice pinned to the homepage.

Pages upon pages, encompassing students from many departments and colleges, a total of 102 people involved.

And this was certainly not the school’s usual style.

In her mind were the scenes of Thursday night when Fu Yanci had sent a WeChat message asking what she was doing.

And also the weekend when he asked if she had anything to tell him.

She belatedly realized that he had known all along and had played along with her "if she didn’t tell him, he would never know" mime.

Ye Li: ...

She didn’t want to trouble him with every problem, but in the end, she still brought issues to his doorstep.

Her so-called smart move only exposed her own stupidity.

Worst of all, he had watched with folded arms from above, silently observing her act.

She was so... infuriating!!!

Completely forgetting that her original intention was to express gratitude, Ye Li sent an irate WeChat message to him.
