Chapter 85 I Want It Too
"You can't blame me for this. In fact, I should have come to class this morning."

Seeing that she looked aggrieved, Xu Mingyuan reached out and flicked her pouting lips with his finger.

"What are you doing?"

The slightly intimate behavior startled Tao Shuxin, who was relieved to see that there was no one around and quickly glared at him again.

Whenever there are many people around, he pretends to be serious, saying that men and women should not touch each other, and then he would frame himself for all this.

Little did he know that he was always taking advantage of me when no one was around. I should just expose him one day and let everyone see his true face!

The Internet was in its infancy and the overall thinking was still conservative. Tao Shuxin was, after all, a shameless girl.

What she thought in her mind was one thing, but if she was asked to make any bold move, she would never dare to do it. At most, she would just be tough with words and try to gain some verbal advantage.

"Here, it's for you."

Xu Mingyuan took out a small chain with a rope from his pocket.

"what is this?"

Tao Shuxin flipped through it curiously, as if it were a key ring.

"It's a cell phone chain. When there's a call, it will sparkle," said Xu Mingyuan.

"Is this true? Is it so advanced?"

Tao Shuxin's eyes widened, a little bit unable to believe it.

"Of course. I spent a lot of effort to buy it. You don't know how difficult it was."

Xu Mingyuan said seriously.

In fact, this thing is called Dianshan, which is just a signal receiver with an LED light. The button battery inside cannot hold power and will be useless in two or three months at most.

This was given to Xu Mingyuan as a gift when he bought a mobile phone. It is worth at most 20 or 30 yuan. It was just rolled out this year and will be all over the streets next year.

But it would be completely fine to deceive the little girl now. Anyway, the college entrance examination is approaching and Tao Shuxin has no time to go shopping. By the time she knows the truth, she will have lost her temper.

"Is it?"

Tao Shuxin had already believed most of it. After taking a quick look around him, he took out his pager from his pocket.

Xu Mingyuan helped her tie it up and dialed her number.

"Eh? How come my phone is on when I haven't received any call yet? Wow! I can actually predict it in advance!"

Tao Shuxin almost dropped her eyes when she saw the light flash for two seconds before the call was connected.

"Alright, alright, put it away. It's not a good thing. If you like it, I'll give you a better-looking one next time."

Xu Mingyuan couldn't deceive Tao Shuxin too deeply, otherwise she would hold a grudge for two days.

"Is it because we are too close? Move over there. Hey, why did you change your phone?"

Tao Shuxin noticed that Xu Mingyuan had changed his number and asked curiously.

"Mobile phones are more convenient. PHS signals are not good and I can't save many numbers."

Xu Mingyuan threw the phone to her.

It's just a Nokia candy-bar phone. It was priced at over 4,000 yuan last year, but it's dropped to under 3,000 yuan this year. It's unlikely that anyone will buy it even at over 1,000 yuan next year.

"We agreed to use Xiaolingtong, why did you change it secretly..."

Tao Shuxin fiddled with it for a while in frustration, and when she returned it to him, she said, "You are not allowed to play with it in school. Go over there and call me again."

After making a few more phone calls, Tao Shuxin's excitement wore off.

Seeing how happy she was, Xu Mingyuan took her to the classroom.

When passing by Class 6 next door, Tao Shuxin finally came to her senses and quickly grabbed his wrist and dragged him back.

"Come back, don't leave!"

I haven't even asked the question yet, but he almost fooled me!

"The bell is about to ring. Don't disturb me from studying."

"You still have the nerve to talk about studying? Didn't you just ask for the afternoon off? It's fine if you didn't come back at night, but you didn't come to class today! Humph!"

He said he promised me, but I didn't expect him to go too far.

"I had dinner with your dad yesterday, and he insisted on getting me drunk. How could I get up in the morning? You can blame him if you want."

Xu Mingyuan decisively betrayed her father.

This was indeed the case. He went to Jiangcheng to handle some things in the afternoon and would be back around six. But Tao Changming heard from Li Yunfeng that he was in Jiangcheng, so he arranged a dinner.

Although Xu Mingyuan didn't drink much, he stayed with her until the early morning and simply found a hotel to stay in in Jiangcheng.

Some things may seem small, but if you don’t understand them clearly, you won’t even have a chance to get started.

Tao Changming finally got a chance to join the game, but it was still unknown whether it would succeed. Even if he succeeded, there would be months of private negotiations. When the interests were not clearly divided, no one was willing to give up the position of agent easily.

"My dad? Why did he look for you?"

"He said he needed a live-in son-in-law and wanted my second child to have the surname Tao." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, Tao Shuxin's face turned red, and he stammered, "You are talking nonsense again. My dad would never say that. Why would my dad say that? Why did my dad say that?"

"No, I lied to you."

"you!"

Tao Shuxin was furious, but Xu Mingyuan had already run away when he saw that the situation was not good.

Yesterday, Tao Changming simply asked how Xu Mingyuan and Tao Shuxin were doing in their studies recently, and he never mentioned the matter again.

But there is no need to be too straightforward among smart people. Since there is no clear support, it does not mean there is no clear opposition.

Of course, Tao Changming couldn't say anything, as any resistance would be on He Qiong's side.

Xu Mingyuan doesn't care and has no sense of responsibility at all.

Let Tao Shuxin figure it out on her own. She will go to Jiang University anyway. She is already so tough, it’s okay to let her deal with her mother on her own.

Although Tao Shuxin was angry, after returning to the classroom, she still slammed the test paper she had done in today's class on Xu Mingyuan's desk.

"Thank you."

When Xu Mingyuan saw the small words marked on the test paper, he expressed his sincere gratitude.

"False intentions."

As usual, Tao Shuxin turned around and complained, then went back to do his own thing when he saw him doing calculations on paper.

Tao Shuxin was very attentive and marked the types of questions that Xu Mingyuan would easily make mistakes in.

Even though she had mastered the subject completely, she still took a pen and marked down the questions that she had gotten wrong before.

Ever since he had the idea of ​​applying to Jiangnan University, Tao Shuxin devoted some of his energy to tutoring Xu Mingyuan.

This had never happened before. I remember that they were always quarreling, and Tao Shuxin would also drag him to tutor, but she was not so attentive.

Perhaps he had thought about it this way, but Xu Mingyuan would probably feel annoyed at the time.

The teacher did not take up too much time in the entire self-study class, and Xu Mingyuan was left studying the questions marked by Tao Shuxin.

"Go home and take a look at it, too."

Tao Shuxin acted reluctantly and put the test paper she had done during evening self-study on his desk.

She knew that Xu Mingyuan had to go home on time, so she had no choice but to resort to this last resort.

"it is good."

Xu Mingyuan didn’t have a backpack, so he folded the test paper and put it in his pocket.

Tang Lin on the side was already used to it and even teased him at the beginning. Tao Shuxin was embarrassed and annoyed a few times and then followed Xu Mingyuan's example, pretending not to care.

It's just that she's a little bad at pretending, and always gives people the feeling that she is like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.

Seeing Xu Mingyuan leave his seat and leave the class, Tao Shuxin pretended not to care and followed him.

After they left the house, she immediately pulled his sleeve and walked aside, asking quietly, "What on earth did my dad want to see you for?"

"It's nothing. Your dad wants to stay in Nanxi so he doesn't have to go to Jiangcheng."

"Really."

Tao Shuxin's eyes lit up and she felt happy.

"I'm leaving."

"Wait a minute, why are you in such a hurry?"

Since I entered my third year of high school, during every evening self-study class, there would be pairs of boys and girls chatting in the corridor, all keeping a distance from each other in tacit understanding.

The two of them also found an open space, lay on the windowsill, looked at the birch trees downstairs, and chatted about some unimportant topics.

"Hey, didn't you come back this morning? Why aren't you coming to class?" Tao Shuxin asked.

"I couldn't take a day off for nothing, so I took my sister out for a walk, bought some things, and played badminton for an afternoon."

"Hmm? Doesn't your sister go to school?"

"Of course, I went to his teacher to ask for leave."

"Wow, you bastard, you don't learn your lesson and you drag your sister into it!"

Tao Shuxin was very angry. She also wanted to ask for leave to go out and play...
