Guide To Raising A Supporting Male Lead Chapter 79

Chapter 79: Teenage Rebellion

Lin Xin didn’t return to the cla.s.sroom . Instead, she took her medical card and returned to the teacher’s office .

Wu Anan and Wu Pingping had already left . Lin Xinyu’s homeroom teacher was also not present . Fortunately, her homeroom teacher had just returned, so she took her medical card and asked her homeroom teacher for another leave of absence .

Lin Xin was an excellent student, ranking first in the school’s examination . Her teacher loved children of this type . When he learned that her stomach hurt, he immediately gave her the leave of absence . So, Lin Xin successfully made off with her leave of absence and headed straight for the school gates . She stopped a taxi and rode home .

At home, Aunt Hui was taking a nap . Lin Xin quietly sneaked into her room and took out a book from the bookcase .

She took out several hundred bills and put them in her pocket . After a moment’s thought, she closed the door again and took out another coat .

When she pa.s.sed by Aunt Hui and Uncle Cheng’s room, she saw that she was sleeping soundly, and the blanket was only covering a little bit of her stomach . She tiptoed into the room and lifted the quilt a little to cover Aunt Hui’s shoulders .

Before leaving, she left a note in the living room saying ‘I have something important to attend to, so don’t worry . ’

Lin Xin found an Internet Cafe nearby, paid a deposit, and asked for a single room* . She holed up in the room and began to surf the internet .

E/N: *Some internet cafes offer internet access in closed cubicles or rooms where people can eat and sleep .

There was only one old computer in the house . It was bought by Cheng Qingrong ten years ago . She had never bought a computer in fear of delaying Lin Xinyu’s studies . Right now, she could only hurry and gather data in the Internet Cafe .

Although she had money now, she felt that it wasn’t enough . She still needed to earn a lot of money and leave it for Lin Xinyu .

What if the plot in the book was real? She wasn’t even mentioned as a character in the original novel . That’s why she was afraid that she could die for no reason, especially since she was using someone else’s body . What’s more, what if she blacks out and transmigrates again?

If transmigration could happen, anything was possible .

Even if she really disappeared from this world one day, she would ensure Lin Xinyu’s life goes smoothly . At the very least, he shouldn’t have to worry about money . She thought it was the only thing she could do for him . And she had to finish it as soon as possible – the sooner, the better . She also wanted to tell Lin Xinyu not to be stupid and block bullets for others as his life was hers .

He could only die if she let him . Others did not count .

Lin Xin noted down the number of job-seekers one after the other on various recruitment websites . Then, she registered an account to post some recruitment details and left her account number . By the time she was finished, it was already 7 or 8 in the evening .

At this time, Lin Xinyu had just finished cla.s.s . Today, he resisted the urge to look for Lin Xin and even ate dinner alone . He had been brooding over her saying, “You can try to like her . ”

What did she take him for? Just thinking about it made his heart ache . The school hours had finally ended, so he just wanted to forgive her and wave the matter away . He decided to look around for her, but found out that she took a leave of absence .

She left without saying a word . Lin Xinyu felt abandoned again .

Neither one of them had a cell phone, so it was impossible to call and ask for her whereabouts .

It just so happened that today, Cheng Qingrong called the teachers to tell them that he would be unable to pick them up after performing a surgery and that they should take a taxi home instead . Yet, because Lin Xin had gone on leave, Lin Xinyu walked out of the school gate alone, increasingly lonely .

After walking a couple of steps, he saw Zhao Qiang walking over . He steadily continued towards the gate, ignoring Zhao Qiang’s approach .

Zhao Qiang had made a mental note on the school logo on their uniform and was looking for them today . It was much easier finding a sense of intimacy with a childhood friend .

He scratched the back of his head and said, “Wow, you’re out of school . I just happened to pa.s.s by . You’re studying here . Where’s Lin Xin?”

Lin Xinyu saw through his lies, but he was too lazy to expose it and just replied quickly, “Yes . ”

Zhao Qiang laughed and asked, “What year are you in now?”

“First year,” Lin Xinyu replied .

Zhao Qiang asked again, “Is Lin Xin in the same year as you?”

“Yes . ”

Zhao Qiang didn’t know why, but facing Lin Xinyu was not like facing Lin Xin . With her, he could say whatever he wanted to say .

Perhaps it was because Lin Xinyu had changed too much, becoming a stranger . Then again, Lin Xin hadn’t changed at all . Or maybe because she used to bully him when they were kids and he felt like he could say whatever he wanted to say to her .
 

Perhaps he had been the one who changed, he thought .

He could not help but remember how immature he was when they were young . As he followed behind Lin Xinyu, he said, “Don’t take what happened during our childhood seriously . I was still young back then . “

Lin Xinyu stopped and turned his head, “What happened when we were young? I forgot all about my childhood, I can’t remember . ”

Zhao Qiang said, “When I was young, when I was young …” He wanted to say he used to hit him when they were young . But then, he recalled that time at the dean’s office and bit back whatever he wanted to say . He felt pathetic when he looked at Lin Xinyu .

Catching on, he quickly steered the conversation away .

“Hey, it’s still early . Do you want to have some supper together?” He really couldn’t find any comforting words to say to Lin Xinyu so he went for the usual ‘eating’ and ‘drinking’ .

He learnt from his time in society that in awkward situations like this, it was easier for people to open up while eating and drinking . This way, people didn’t need to think of deep words of consolation to be closer .

Lin Xinyu really didn’t want to accept Zhao Qiang’s offer, especially since Lin Xin repeatedly reminded him not to have any contact with him . Plus, he really wasn’t much of a ‘friend’ to him .

However, he paused, and a little rebellious thought came to his mind .

Zhao Qiang asked if he would like to have supper together . Lin Xin didn’t want him to interact with Zhao Qiang . So, if he insisted on interacting with him, will she come back to him? Or will she leave just like that? He wanted to see how she would react .

“Okay, where should we go?”
