"Perfect Tian Ji horse racing strategy, Wang Yuezhi, the inferior horse, has freed me, the superior horse, from wasting resources racing alongside Lin Li, the mediocre horse. We can achieve greater benefits. Class Four, sure victory!"

As Wang Yuezhi returned to continue rope-jumping, Wang Ze sighed.

Lin Li, who accomplished all of this with wisdom and charm, closed his eyes and pretended to stroke his beard, looking all enigmatic. He then quickly turned his head to make sure Chen Yu Ying couldn't hear, and swiftly said to Wang Ze:

"I'm the mediocre horse; give me Tian Ji."

Wang Ze: "?"

What the hell.

"However, I must admit, this is indeed the wisdom of our ancestors." Lin Li sighed.

"Hehe, I don't quite agree." Bai Bufan, who was nearby, said with a sneer, "Tian Ji's horse racing sometimes appears extremely foolish."

"Oh? Brother Bai, why do you say that? Do you have a brilliant insight?" Lin Li asked curiously, looking at Bai Bufan.

Bai Bufan took a deep breath.

"In third grade, I had a fight with a classmate, and neither of us backed down, so we arranged a showdown. I called my sixth-grade brother. He then got his eighth-grade brother, so I called my cousin from ninth grade. Unexpectedly, he brought his eleventh-grade brother.

We thought we were doomed to lose, but luckily, my cousin had learned the Tian Ji's horse racing story by then.

In the end, it was me from third grade facing my classmate's eleventh-grade brother."

Bai Bufan's voice was magnetic and deep, seemingly full of stories, abruptly ending at the last line.

Lin Li and Wang Ze laughed until their stomachs hurt.

"So, what was the result, Bufan?" Lin Li squatted and laughed as he asked.

"Two to one, we won." Bai Bufan nodded.

Even as the victor, he didn't display any arrogance; instead, his eyes revealed sadness. Perhaps that's Bai Bufan's way.

"I wasn't asking about the match; what was your personal outcome?" Lin Li pressed on.

"I don't know about that. I have no memory of what happened after that day." Bai Bufan replied.

"Still so modest, still concealing your achievements and reputation!" Wang Ze sighed.

"Or perhaps you woke up in the hospital, right?" Lin Li suggested, showing understanding.

"That's why I said!" Bai Bufan suddenly lost his composure, angrily said: "Tian Ji never considered the inferior horse's feelings! Isn't an inferior horse still a horse? Inferior horses have rights too! Tian Ji, that guy, is the most horseless!"

Reasonable and well-supported, it's hard not to agree.

Tian Ji was indeed too selfish.

With only forty minutes in a class, soon the bell rang for the end of the class.

After helping Wang Ze and Chen Yu Ying return the tools taken from the equipment room, the group went to the snack shop to buy water.

"I'll speak to Teacher Xue later about using the class fund to buy a long rope and other necessary tools for fun activities, otherwise borrowing and returning them each time is a hassle and inconvenient," Chen Yu Ying said, "Lin Li, you might need to lead this since you're good at leaving campus."

"No problem, just let me know the specific needs," Lin Li responded casually, then fell into thought.

"What are you thinking about, would this trouble you?" Chen Yu Ying noticed and asked.

But no matter the trouble, she had to get Lin Li to help her.

"Nope, it's not a trouble. I'm just pondering on which shop could help forge a fake receipt because I'm planning to buy a... no, a 13,999 yuan rope for everyone to jump with. Although such a rope is hard to find, our Class Four should train with the best equipment!

As for me, it's okay to be a little tired or suffer a bit,"

Lin Li's words were firm and powerful.

Chen Yu Ying: "..."

"Hakelin... you, this guy, are truly thinking about everyone in Class Four..." Wang Ze, beside Lin Li, was captivated by his charm, "Could you lend me, uh, the rope once you buy it?"

"The class fund doesn't have that much money," Chen Yu Ying laughed and scolded.

Nansang Middle School's class funds are not much, and all expenditure details are publicly displayed, making it clean and clear in this internet age, avoiding any worrying matters.

"No 13,999? Then what about 9,999? I can't buy a 1TB rope, but I'll accept a 256GB one?" Lin Li, unwilling to give up, asked again.

"Using TB, GB as units, would it still be a rope? Are you not even willing to pretend, Lin Li! You, this guy! Having such thoughts now, Lin Li, your life is pretty much ruined." Ding Sihan acted as Chen Yu Ying's mouthpiece, her little mouth firing off words like a machine gun.

"What do you know, Xiaoding? If I don't take it, how will the class monitor take it? If the class monitor doesn't take it, how will Old Jian take it? If Old Jian doesn't take it, how will Commissioner Smith take it? You can't be so selfish. I'm truly doing it for everyone!" Lin Li defended himself.

Ding Sihan: "..."

Ruined.

Chen Yu Ying sighed: "Lin Li, you're not allowed to take the civil services exam in the future, and also no accounting."

"You can rest easy about that. Don't forget, class monitor, the sorting hat has already placed me in civil engineering." Lin Li waved his hand.

Chen Yu Ying thought for a moment: "Then, if you become a contractor in the future, you're not allowed to delay paying the workers."

Lin Li: "?"

"Why speak such serious words to me! Do I look like someone who'd delay workers' wages?" Lin Li got angry.

Faced with Lin Li's questioning.

Xiaoding nodded.

Xiaoqu also nodded.

Chen Yu Ying not only nodded but also laughed and said: "Hmm."

At Lin Li's moment of despair, only Old Wang shook his head.

However, Lin Li wasn't moved, but instead squinted at Wang Ze: "Wang Ze, why did you shake your head?"

It's either kicking someone when they're down or hiding knives in honey.

"I think you won't become a contractor and will spend your life being owed wages. Why would you have the qualification to owe others?" Wang Ze explained.

Damn.

Knew nothing good would come out of this guy's mouth.

"Sigh, misunderstanding is the fate that such excellent individuals like me must endure." Lin Li sighed sadly.

Soon, the five of them finished buying water and started returning to the classroom.

"Lin Li, what are you sneakily watching?" Ding Sihan noticed Lin Li's gaze and asked.

"Recently, I've been researching people-reading techniques to enhance social skills. I was observing what you guys are drinking, because this can reveal some social habits." Lin Li began analyzing: "For example—"

"People who like milk tea have lots of girlfriends."

"People who like baijiu have lots of stories."

"People who like red wine have lots of lovers."

"Really? Then what about mine? Vita Lemon Tea, what's that?" Ding Sihan looked at the drink in her hand and asked.

Lin Li revealed a smile indicating she finally took the bait:

"Pees a lot."

Ding Sihan: "?"

"What about mine, rock sugar pear?" Qu Wanqiu asked.

"Pees a lot."

"What about Wang Ze's iced tea?" Qu Wanqiu pointed to Wang Ze, who responded with a 'man' toward Lin Li.

"Pees a lot."

"What about Ying Bao's real fruit drink?"

"Pees a lot."

Qu Wanqiu: "..."

In a way, Lin Li is rare in treating everyone equally.

"I'm not deceiving you guys, if you don't believe me, try it yourselves," Lin Li said innocently, seeing everyone silent.

Drinking too much really does result in peeing a lot, what I said was clearly correct?

What's with all their expressions?

"Lin Li! What kind of ridiculous people-reading technique did you learn! You can only say this one phrase! Go away!" Qu Wanqiu picked up her rock sugar pear and threw it at Lin Li.

Lin Li caught it and threw it back to Qu Wanqiu, then looked at Wang Ze: "Wang Ze, do you want to throw something too?"

Wang Ze raised a hand to indicate it wasn't necessary.

Throwing meat buns at a dog, it won't return. Girls throw things at Lin Li, but Lin Li feels bad taking it away. Hell, if he throws it himself and gets it back, Wang Ze will take Wang Haoyang's surname.

Seeing her long-range attack ineffective, Qu Wanqiu ran up to kick Lin Li, muttering:

"Make you pee a lot! Make you pee a lot!"

"Hold on, this uniform is custom made for me! One thousand eight hundred! One thousand eight hundred! And I'm saying you guys, not me, are the ones peeing a lot!"

"Hey! Stop kicking! Stop kicking!"
