Chapter 224 Parkour Academy 24
Li Mo was still angry after smashing his phone, and kept pacing back and forth in the dormitory.
"How could he say that? He hasn't seen the whole story, so he can't comment. I don't believe he doesn't understand such a simple principle."
"He's just biased against me!"
“If I hadn’t checked and confirmed that we are father and son, I really wouldn’t believe we are related. It’s too unacceptable. I wish we weren’t, so I could at least comfort myself.”
Looking at his good brother, who seemed oblivious to everything and lived a carefree life, Li Mo felt a pang of envy. "Your parents are so good; they've never cared about you since you were little."
Xiao Ruochen: ...
That hurts, bro. Since you're so optimistic about it, how about we switch? But Xiao Ruochen only thought about it.
Because of Li Mo's outspokenness, Xiao Ruochen shut his mouth, deciding to watch the joke unfold a little longer.
“What’s wrong with Mu Bai? He just spouts nonsense. He can say whatever he wants about me, I’m his son, I accept it. But what did Mu Bai do to offend him? I think he just can’t stand to see me doing well.” This person, who is so to his liking, seems to be his destiny. If he were scared away by his father… Li Mo’s heart ached at the thought.
Protect the one you love.
For love!
"I advise you to control yourself," Xiao Ruochen and the others said after grumbling for a while.
My superpowers have gone off the rails, did you know that?
Although it is on a small scale.
As a seasoned superhuman with the interstellar competition scheduled for the end of the year, such a basic mistake should never have happened to him.
"What's going on? You know Mu Bai too. Who are you taking on now? We're best brothers." Li Mo found it unbelievable. Could his brother really be like that?
Okay, if that's the case, then I guess I was blind for the past ten years or so. I'm better off without a brother like that.
Xiao Ruochen was speechless; he was clearly head over heels in love. No matter what others said, his thoughts were always on love.
"Don't you feel a little hot on your head?" Even the usually aloof Xiao Ruochen was somewhat helpless at this moment.
There's a saying that goes something like this: you can never wake someone who's pretending to be asleep.
Despite hearing such an obvious warning, Li Mo chose to ignore it. Moreover, he was adept at grasping the key point. "I thought you'd chosen to side with my father. That's great! We'll still be brothers. Meeting you in this life is enough; I have no regrets even in death."
Li Mo's expression brightened, and he grinned widely, completely disregarding his image, revealing his gums.
"Hey, do you smell something? Like something's burning?"
"Could it be that the air conditioner was too strong and burned out the wiring?" Li Mo chuckled, only concerned with his perfect brotherly bond. The thought of burnt wiring was just a figure of speech; he didn't really care. Even if the wiring did burn out, someone else would report it, so why should he worry about it?
"Why don't you go look in the mirror?" His face was so silly, it was unbearable to look at. Xiao Ruochen couldn't bear to look at him either.
When Li Mo looked in the mirror, the fire on his head had already gone out. Smoke was rising from behind him in the mirror, giving off an air of divine possession. He reached down and pressed his hand against his neck; the smoke was gone, and the charlatan-like aura vanished.
I feel like I'm about to be burned like incense; it's terrifying.
Li Mo shook his head, trying to shake off the terrible thought. He stood in front of the mirror and looked at himself from left to right. Great, still so handsome, incredibly handsome.
Five minutes later, Li Mo emerged from the restroom, still Li Mo. He tilted his head back, ignoring everyone.
Trying to embarrass me? Li Mo replied, "What's embarrassing? I don't even know them. As long as I'm thick-skinned enough, I can filter out all the negative stuff."
I am who I am, a different firework.
Li Mo continued to live his life as he pleased. After class, he would bring snacks to Mu Bai, help her get food during mealtimes, and after meals, he would escort her to the girls' dormitory like a chivalrous protector.
Qin Baobao was very pleased with her younger brother's competence and didn't mind giving him an encouraging look.
Keep it up, do your best, I believe in you!
As for the rumors and gossip outside, Qin Baobao said she could completely ignore them. She would spend her free time basking in the sun, visiting the library to read interesting stories and anecdotes about the world, and then simply gazing at the crisp green leaves under the sun – her days were leisurely and fulfilling.
In early spring, the huge willow trees beside the playground have already sprouted new buds, undeterred by the cold. Under the sunlight, the willow branches sway casually, exuding an indescribable languid beauty.
The years are peaceful, the world is tranquil, and in the dappled light and shadow, the beauty seems unreal.
"Excuse me, Mu Bai, could you come out for a moment?" The quiet classroom was suddenly broken by a voice.
Mu Bai's homeroom teacher stood at the classroom door, holding a thermos in his hand. His very presence was the epitome of gentleness and refinement.
Who could bear to leave someone like that waiting at the door?
The entire class turned to look at Mu Bai, the person involved in the incident. Mu Bai propped his head up with one hand, gazing at the large willow tree outside the window, seemingly lost in thought. Sunlight shone on him, revealing only half of his profile for all to admire.
If the object of his affections is Mu Bai, it seems that he can still be forgiven to some extent.
“Little Bai Bai…” Gu Ling poked Mu Bai with her hand.
Mu Bai came to his senses and found that all eyes were staring at him, which was inexplicably eerie.
"Your homeroom teacher wants to see you," Gu Ling whispered a reminder.
Qin Baobao nodded to indicate that she understood, closed the open book, and put it in the drawer.
Ignoring everyone's stares, I casually followed the homeroom teacher out of the classroom.
Nothing seems to have happened recently that warrants the homeroom teacher personally calling in. Could it be because of the recent rumors? Surely not? The parkour academy doesn't seem to have such a rule.
However, Qin Baobao wasn't that curious; she'd find out soon enough, so there was no need to pry now.
They initially thought they were going to the office, and indeed they did go to the office, but it was the principal's office.
The principal was a handsome man in his fifties, with a very upright appearance. However, Qin Baobao, who had already met him, knew that appearances can be deceiving, and she couldn't outsmart him. This man could figure out a person's background in just a few words, and adhering to the principle that the more you say, the more mistakes you make, Qin Baobao stood aside, keeping quiet as much as possible. After all, she had too many secrets, and accidentally revealing one could implicate those around her.
"Student Mu, what do you think of the suggestion from last time?"
Qin Baobao lowered her eyes, looking like she was refusing to cooperate.
Principal Qin continued to persuade him. "There are many benefits to being my apprentice. Putting aside everything else, the reputation of being the dean's apprentice is still very useful."
Qin Baobao remained unmoved.
"Your mother will be very happy to have this title."
Qin Baobao finally spoke, but still didn't look at the principal. "I don't want to attract attention, I just want to coast along."
Last time, we weren't prepared, so we had someone investigate thoroughly after we got back. Principal Qin thought he was well-prepared and had the girl's lifeline firmly in his grasp. Unexpectedly, the girl was unyielding, which made things difficult.
"You..." Never mind, why make things so tense? Bringing things out in the open won't benefit anyone.
"Go back and prepare. In a month, the school will organize a group of people to do an internship on the desolate planet. Also, go back and move around a bit. How can the people participating in the competition be second-year freshmen?"
Mr. Li: I'm just trying to break these two up, why are you going against me?
Principal Qin: Who told him to be a spatial ability user? Shouldn't such a talent be kept around to gather dust?
