Chapter 366: The only thing that can defeat authority is a higher authority
"No traitor, let's talk about some old tricks." Lin Li looked at Zeng Ziang: "I'll go first: many elderly people have heart attacks or cerebral infarctions."

Zeng Ziang was silent at first, then he sighed and covered his face. Although he was indeed smiling, his smile looked helpless.

Without saying anything, he just turned around and started to move away from Lin Li.

The study found that swimming trunks have a huge negative benefit on swimming speed - otherwise it would be impossible to explain why Zeng Ziang's swimming speed is so much slower than when he was swimming naked just now, and he is very cautious and has to check his swimming trunks from time to time.

Suddenly, Lin Li's pupils trembled!
"Brother Ziang! There's danger!!"

"What's wrong?!" Zeng Ziang quickly grabbed the shore with one hand, covered his pants with the other hand, and looked back vigilantly and fearfully.

If Zeng Ziang had extremely insensitive skin before, now he has extremely sensitive skin.

He would react to any disturbance.

"The water in the swimming pool has boiled. I just saw bubbles appearing in the water behind you! Run away!" Lin Li had already slipped to the shore and was pointing behind Zeng Ziang with a look of horror.

Zeng Ziang: "..."

Zeng Ziang hesitated, and then said, "Lin Li, has anyone ever told you that you are too tactful?"

Lin Li shook his head: "No, my friends usually say that I speak in a way that hurts others, and you also said this when we first met."

"Your friend and I are both very fair." Zeng Ziang smiled.

—Damn it, I just farted, no need to remind myself!
Well, to be precise, it’s not one, it’s a string.

By the way, Lin Li’s acting skills are pretty good. He acted that frightened expression so realistically, as if he was really frightened, haha.

Zeng Ziang doesn't laugh.

……

"Lin Li, it's almost time. If you leave some time to take a shower, we can leave now." Zeng Ziang spoke to Lin Li who swam to his side again.

"Hmm?" Lin Li took off his goggles and looked at the electronic display screen in the hall. After confirming the time, he nodded: "Okay, it's time."

Two hours and ten minutes have passed since the timer started, and the remaining twenty minutes is just enough for taking a shower and blow-drying my hair.

The task has made some progress and is not too far from completion. Lin Li plans to swim one or two more times after finishing the second subject.

"Lin Li, you are so strong that you can swim from beginning to end, and at such a fast speed."

After Lin Li got ashore, Zeng Ziang said with envy in his eyes.

Zeng Ziang watched Lin Li swimming back and forth at a relatively fast speed the entire time, and he was shocked at first, but later became numb.

He is tall and handsome, with a great body and athletic ability, and his belly is very plump. I wonder what window God has closed for Lin Li.

Just now, the envy in the eyes of those uncles when they saw the awakened lion was the same as the envy in his eyes when he looked at Lin Li now.

What's more, the lions standing in the crowd have not yet awakened.

Zeng Ziang will never forget the heartbreaking words his ex-girlfriend said to him when they broke up -

"Zeng Ziang, you always say that a short pain is worse than a long one, but you won't suffer long pain, and I won't suffer pain either, so let's just break up."

She clearly said she was cute when we first got together.

Woo woo woo.

"Actually, I take a break often, but you just didn't notice it, Brother Ziang." After hearing the compliment, Lin Li made up a white lie to comfort him.

"That's pretty impressive too," Zeng Ziang shook his head, then waved the phone in his hand:

"Lin Li, I have sent all the photos I just took to you on WeChat. You can choose from them later. However, the lens must be wet, so the photos may not be very clear. You have to make do with what you have. There is nothing I can do."

"It's okay, as long as I take the photo, thank you brother."

"It's just a small matter, let's go."

"it is good."

The two returned to the bathroom to wash their hair and take a shower, change clothes, and after checking that nothing was left behind, they headed to the public hair dryer location.

Lin Li took out his mobile phone, and the number of non-group chat messages on WeChat notifications had already exceeded 99. Of course, most of them were photos sent to him by Zeng Ziang.

However, in the message list, the appearance of a 'new' avatar is quite eye-catching.

"Fan Hong: "Link: Yizhen's social tea party this month is now open for registration""

"Fan Hong: Brother, our monthly event will be held tomorrow afternoon. Do you want to participate? If you do, I will put your name on the list. You are an annual member and there is no cost."

Fan Hong is the agent from Yizhen Matchmaking Agency that I went to see last Sunday.

Is it going to be held this week? Seeing that there was no notification on weekdays, Lin Li thought that their family’s event this month was planned to be held next week.

The event was only warmed up one day in advance, which was a bit sudden. I couldn't just ask those in the group if they wanted to come over and play, as they had all gone home.

But if you miss it this month, you will have to wait until next month. This is a good opportunity to complete the experimental task and it is not suitable to miss it.

Lin Li thought about it and finally came up with an idea.

"Brother." Lin Li looked at Zeng Ziang.

"what happened?"

"I remember Auntie said that no one wanted you during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Brother, is there anyone who wants you now?" Lin Li's words were full of sincerity.

Zeng Ziang: "..."

"Lin Li, are you like my mom, unable to take public transportation because you carry a controlled knife?"

Zeng Ziang stared at Lin Li's mouth, his mouth corners twitching slightly, then he let out a long sigh and sighed.

"So, is there anyone who wants it now?" Lin Li did not answer, but just felt heartbroken.

"No."

"Are you free tomorrow afternoon?"

"I am a distinguished weekend person, so I am free, but why are you asking this all of a sudden? What's the matter?"

Zeng Ziang asked curiously when he heard this.

"I just want to ask if you are interested in participating in a blind date and friendship meeting," Lin Li stated his purpose. "The participants are all young people who live in Nansang. The age limit is under 28 years old. I think it's a good match for you."

"Ah?" Zeng Ziang was stunned for a moment when he heard this. After all, this was an invitation he had never expected to hear from Lin Li.

"By the way, the important thing is that this activity is free - it's because I have connections, not because there is a scam in the activity. Besides, I will go with you, so you don't have to worry about being embarrassed because you are unfamiliar with the place." Lin Li continued.

Zeng Ziang was not a member, so of course he had to pay, but Lin Li paid for him.

"Ah, this..." Zeng Ziang scratched his head after hearing this, still looking puzzled:
"Dating party? But you plan to go too? Lin Li, why are you so anxious? No one wants you either? No way?"

"Of course not, brother. Someone wants me. Besides, my girlfriend is very pretty, cute and very nice to me. Do you want to see her photo?..."

There was no need to hide the truth from Zeng Ziang. Just remind Wu Min not to tell anyone in the community. So when Lin Li mentioned Chen Yuying, he became so angry that he forgot about his feelings and was willing to die.

"Lin Li, you should stop after the last half of the sentence, 'Someone wants you'. We are just neighbors. You crossed the line with the rest of the sentence."

Zeng Ziang spoke without laughing.

Especially after he glanced at the photo of Lin Li’s girlfriend on his phone, he stopped laughing even more.

But then, he was even more confused: "Yes, no matter your age or situation, you are definitely not in a hurry or lack of money, so why are you participating in a blind date?"

"I'll just treat it as a fun show, like a live dating show. And I think blind dates are a group of men who are the least good at dealing with women dealing with a group of the most difficult women. Just thinking about it makes me think it will be fun."

Lin Li's words were somewhat sincere.

“Is that so…” Zeng Ziang scratched his head.

He didn't know why, although he had only met Lin Li twice, he felt that it was extremely reasonable for Lin Li to do such a thing.

“And I didn’t want to go alone, so I asked you, Brother Ziang, since you just happened to have this need.

Then we can hit it off right away, I'll go and have fun, and you'll go...dangdangdang, make a brilliant appearance and win the beauty, then we'll both have a bright future." Lin Li explained.

"Hey, what you fucking want to say is that I should go there for fun! This turn of events is too abrupt!" Zeng Ziang's eyes widened.

He spoke too quickly and Lin Li smiled ingratiatingly.

"But..." Zeng Ziang frowned and pondered, then nodded:

"That's true... To be honest, when I said I wanted to take the civil service exam, my family never urged me to do so. But after I found a job, my parents immediately started to urge me to do so and even wanted to help me arrange it."

In fact, this situation is quite 'normal'.

假设儿女6月15日大学毕业，很多父母6月14日还在劝她们好好读书学习为重，但6月16日就开始催结婚生子了。

"Okay, let's go and have a look. Making friends will be much less awkward than meeting alone. Let's see the situation. What time and where will it be tomorrow?" Zeng Ziang made up his mind and nodded.

"The time is 2:30 pm. I'll send you the link to the location and other details later."

"Okay, then let's go together in the community? I'll drive."

"Row."

The two of them agreed.

Very good, now I can tell Chen Yuying directly.

We have arrived at the hair-drying area. There are only four public hair dryers for boys, but it is more than enough for boys, especially since most of the uncles have very big hair. A towel is enough to wipe it, and a hair dryer is unnecessary.

After taking a shower, he was still working on his filter. There was no one around, and he had promised Chen Yuying, so Lin Li took a few photos in front of the mirror.

Then he casually blew his hair with one hand and continued to use his phone with the other hand.

After responding to the message Chen Yuying shared with him during swimming, Lin Li selected some interesting or handsome photos from the photos he had just taken and the photos Zeng Ziang sent him, and sent them to her.

This time she didn’t reply immediately, it seemed that Chen Yuying was not looking at her phone.

Seeing Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu chatting about the drama in "Three People and One Dog", Lin Li sent out a photo of himself facing the mirror.

「Lin Li: "Pictures"」

Counted ten seconds.

"Lin Li withdrew a message."

"Lin Li: Oops, sorry, my finger slipped and I clicked the wrong button."

Lin Li waited and looked forward to what kind of scolding he would receive after this act of humiliation.

Then Lin Li stopped laughing.

Because the group is dead.

Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu, who were just chatting, disappeared completely without any warning.

Damn, how can this be such cold violence?

Hey, my friend, you don't give me any air? It's so suffocating?
No, it must be because they didn't see it.

「Lin Li: "Pictures"」

"Lin Li: @Ding Sihan @Qu Wanqiu @Bai Bufan"

"Lin Li: Oops, my hand slipped again. I didn't mean to @ you guys. Sorry."

"..."

"..."

Dead group.

Bai Bufan didn't reply, he must be playing games or having a 3P, otherwise he would be more sensible.

But Qu Wanqiu and Ding Sihan...

Lin Li's eyes were grim. "Since you guys are so ruthless, just forget about using your special moves."

It was you who forced me!
"Lin Li invited Meng Ji's Tears to join the group chat." "Meng Ji's Tears is not a friend of anyone else in the group, please pay attention to privacy."

「Lin Li: "Pictures"」

"Dream Chicken's Tears: Quote Image" @Lin Li, buddy, is this you?"

"Lin Li: Haha, it's me."

"Dream Chicken's Tears: Man, you are a little handsome."

"Lin Li: I'm fine. Thank you for the compliment."

"Mengji's Tears" was removed from the group chat by Ding Sihan."

"Lin Li:?"

"Lin Li: Give my buddy back! He hasn't finished praising me yet! He's only typed half of the words! Let him finish praising me!"

"Lin Li: No! Ding Sihan, you are a human being! You saw the message and deliberately didn't reply, and now you come out to kick someone out? Are you a human being?"

"Qu Wanqiu: "Disinfecting the phone with disgust."

“Lin Li: Don’t just send emojis and say nothing! You two! Speak! I need an explanation!”

"Ding Sihan: If you scream again, I'll kick you too."

"Lin Li withdrew a message."

WeChat groups also have administrators, but their titles are not displayed.

Damn it, how come Ding Sihan has this identity? It seems like he’ll have to coax the group leader Ying Bao into giving him one before he can fight.

"Bai Bufan: "Quote Image" @Lin Li, buddy, is this you?"

Lin Li's eyes lit up. Damn, my brother is here to save the day!
"Lin Li: Haha, it's me."

"Ding Sihan: If you say another sentence, I will kick you too."

"Bai Bufan withdrew a message."

"Lin Li withdrew a message."

"Bai Bufan: I'm going to play games."

"Lian Li: "Bone" "Bone" "Bone""

The intention has been shown and the due reward has been given. Lin Li is already very satisfied and touched.

Today's shame must be etched in our hearts, and in the future -

"Chen Yuying: "Quoted pictures" are actually pretty to look at."

"Lin Li: @Ding Sihan! Yell! Keep on yelling! I'll let you keep on yelling!"

"Bai Bufan: That's right!"

"Lin Li: Why don't you shout anymore? Why has the group become a library? Huh? So quiet? Don't you like to shout?"

"Bai Bufan: That's right!"

"Lin Li: Ding Zi, kick him! Are you threatening me again? You kicked the group leader out!"

"Bai Bufan: That's right!"

"Ding Sihan: 狗倚人势 is a Chinese idiom, which means that a bad person relies on some kind of power to bully people or things. It comes from the Ming Dynasty's "Baojian Ji"."

"Ding Sihan: A dog relies on a powerful person to bully a person or thing. It comes from "Three People and a Dog"."

"Qu Wanqiu: Hey, Yuying, just pamper him."

"Ding Sihan: I can only say that loving mothers often spoil their children. Yingbao will regret it in the future."

"Hiss——" Lin Li was so focused on the conversation that the hair dryer kept blowing on one area, making it a little hot. He quickly changed his position, but the smile on his face did not disappear because of this little episode.

Ignoring the sour remarks of his two daughters in the group chat, Lin Li sent a private message to Chen Yuying on WeChat.

"Lin Li: The only thing you can see in the group is my gorgeous face with clothes on. The rest is all here."

"Lin Li: How is it, how is it?"

"Chen Yuying: You are quite handsome."

"Lin Li: Not enough, not enough. Seeing my strong body, squad leader, you should make the same "slurp, slurp" sound as I did in the morning."

"Chen Yuying: Oh no, I don't want to."

After chatting about the photos for a while, when the topic was about to end, Lin Li talked about tomorrow's events:
"Lin Li: I plan to go to a blind date meeting with a neighbor tomorrow afternoon."

"Lin Li: He has never been there before. This is his first time. I will go with him to give him courage and to have some fun. I think it should be quite interesting. We can watch it as a live dating show."

"Lin Li: Ah sir, reporting to you!"

"Chen Yuying: My boyfriend seems to be in a relationship."

"Lin Li: We are talking, we are talking. We are talking to you."

"Chen Yuying: Tsk."

"Chen Yuying: Ah, Sir, I got it. If you have anything interesting, remember to tell me when you are at school in the evening."

Chen Yuying really didn't take this seriously.

After all, for high school students, blind date is a word that is too distant and almost has no connection with it.

But the fact that Lin Li would have such a bad taste and take action... Chen Yuying thought it was quite normal.

As for worrying about Lin Li falling in love...

Chen Yuying believed in herself, in Lin Li, and even more in the people in the dating club - calling her sister was polite, and calling her aunt was not excessive.

Not worthy of Lin Li, not as good as myself.

"Lin Li: Why do we have to do it at night? If you are tired of studying, you can just call me and I will broadcast it live remotely for you."

"Chen Yuying: If I call you and then listen to other people's voices, I might as well not call~"

"Lin Li: "Love""

"Lin Li: Let me see if this is interesting. If it is, I will take everyone to play next time."

"Chen Yuying: You're the only one interested. Lin Li, have you just finished swimming? Have you taken the second test?"

"Lin Li: I just finished blowing my hair and am now preparing to go to the driving school for the test. What about you? When do you plan to go home?"

"Chen Yuying: We are going to have dinner here, and we probably won't leave right after dinner. I think it will be after 7 or 8 o'clock."

"Lin Li: OK."

Putting down the hair dryer, Lin Li rubbed his hair in front of the mirror.

I have found a 'real' reason to replace the 'system task' to go to the dating party, so I can feel more relaxed and natural tomorrow.

There is no need for lies or concealment, as long as she is fine, it will be fine for her too, hooray.

"Brother, let's go?" Lin Li looked at Zeng Ziang with a little more gratitude in his eyes.

"Okay, let's go." Zeng Ziang nodded, and the two went to the front desk to return the bracelets and walked towards the parking lot.

"Then shall we go directly back to the community?" Zeng Ziang asked.

"Brother, you go back by yourself. I have to take the driving test later. I will take a taxi directly to the test site." Lin Li waved his hand and said naturally.

"You still have this plan? Why take a taxi? Take my car and I'll take you there," Zeng Ziang snapped his fingers immediately, and before Lin Li could shirk responsibility, he immediately said:

"Lin Li, we are both young, so we don't need to use fake courtesy like adults. I am really not busy and have nothing to do right now. It's just a piece of cake for me to send you there. If you refuse, it will make me depressed."

"Okay, thank you, brother." Lin Li didn't act pretentiously and nodded with a smile.

"Get in the car and get in."

The two men sat back in the driver's and front passenger's seats and drove out of the parking lot.

"Lin Li, what subject are you taking the exam for today?"

"Subject 2."

"Oh, I think the second subject is relatively simple. Although I didn't pass it in my first try, I took the make-up test on the spot." After getting the location of the examination room and turning on the navigation, Zeng Ziang chatted while driving.

"I should be able to make it through today," Lin Li said modestly.

“Let me tell you a few possible mistakes…” Zeng Ziang was about to share his experience when he suddenly froze and looked at Lin Li curiously: “Eh? Lin Li, I remember you told me during the Mid-Autumn Festival that you were a freshman in high school?”

"Correct."

"You are an adult?"

"Yes."

"Ah? How come you're an adult in your first year of high school?" Zeng Ziang asked the question that had just occurred to him.

"I had an accident when I was a child, so I dropped out of school." Lin Li gave the answer to a question that was already written in the third chapter of Antenna but that many people didn't pay attention to and often asked.

"Oh," Zeng Ziang's voice immediately became lighter and more apologetic, "Are you okay now?"

"Do you think I look okay?" Lin Li smiled. "I don't have any sequelae."

"That's good, that's good." Zeng Ziang nodded with a smile, "It's a blessing in disguise. When your parents found out, they must have been terrified, right?"

“My mother was.”

Zeng Ziang spoke faster than he thought: "Where's your dad?"

"My dad wasn't very lucky."

"..."

Zeng Ziang: “☉_☉”

"Lin Li, uncle... is gone?" After understanding the meaning behind this sentence, Zeng Ziang swallowed his saliva and asked softly with a strong tentative voice.

"Yeah." Lin Li nodded.

Zeng Ziang: "..."

"..."

Zeng Ziang's smile gradually disappeared.

Zeng Ziang recalled the conversation he had with Lin Li before coming to the swimming pool.

"Oh, so your rice cooker is quite big, or maybe your dad doesn't eat much. My dad is a manual laborer, so he eats a lot."

Zeng Ziang: "..."

Zeng Ziang finally understood which window God had closed for Lin Li—it was his father.

Damn! Wait! How could such a hellish thought appear in my mind!
After a moment of shock, Zeng Ziang stepped on the accelerator with a little more force, his expression ferocious and regretful: "Fuck you... I deserve to die!"

When the car accelerated, Lin Li felt a clear push on his back: "(；☉_☉)?"

"No? Brother!"

"Wait! Wait!"

"Brother! Let's not worry about whether he should die or not! Don't die now!"

"Slow down! Slow down! Brother! I shouldn't die!! Brother! I've been desensitized a long time ago! You shouldn't die either!!"

"Don't die! Don't die for you! I don't want to die either! None of us should die!!"

(End of this chapter)
