When I was in Reply 1988

Chapter 116 Is the reward a kiss?

If Li Renyong hadn't been busy, he would have waited for Donglong to go home together.

In autumn evenings, it gets dark early.

As soon as the sun set, the sky quickly turned a deep blue.

The street lights began to light up, and the yellow light softly sprinkled on the ground.

The temperature in the air began to drop, and the breeze blew across my cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness.

The number of pedestrians on the street also began to decrease, with only a few people walking hurriedly.

When he arrived at the school gate, Li Renyong wanted to go home, but he decided to go to the old place.

What if Paula is waiting for me?
When I arrived at the old place, Paula's figure appeared in my eyes.

Her shadow was very long under the light, blending into the night.

Li Renyong walked quickly to Paula, gently stretched out his hand, and put her cold little hand into his pocket.

"It's already so dark, why don't you go back? If I hadn't come, would you have kept waiting?"

There was a hint of questioning in his voice.

Paula was stunned for a moment, then a warm smile spread across her face.

"I knew you would come here. How did you do on the test?"

"I did well on the test, is there any reward?"

When it comes to grades, Li Renyong can't get angry.

His tone was full of amusement, and there was a gleam in his eyes as he looked at Paula.

If the reward is a kiss, that's great.

"Of course there are rewards. Tell me how your grades are."

Hearing that there was a reward, Li Renyong didn't say anything more and directly took out the report card.

"Look, I'm second in the overall score. The first one was Sunwoo, who took the test with the ballpoint pen you gave me."

Paula frowned, her little hand left Li Renyong's pocket, took the report card and looked at it carefully.

“You must get first place in the exam!”

There was a firm tone in his voice.

The top student is indeed a top student, and he takes the first place so seriously.

In fact, Li Renyong doesn’t care. Being first or second, they feel the same.

However, seeing that Paula looked serious, he pretended to be serious too.

"Okay, next time I will definitely defeat Sun Woo and strive for first place."

After saying this, Li Renyong looked at Paula, his eyes full of tenderness and love.

He stretched out his hands, supported Paula's head, and gently squeezed her face into a bun.

The two were very close to each other, and Paula could even feel Li Renyong's breath.

The world around them seemed to have stopped, leaving only Li Renyong, Paula, and the dim street light.

Li Renyong's mouth was getting closer and closer to Paula.

At this moment, Paula suddenly stretched out her hand, clenched her fist, and hit Li Renyong hard on the head.

"What are you going to do?"

Her face was as red as a ripe apple.

Li Renyong covered his head and said, "Didn't you say there would be a reward?"

Paula covered her forehead with her right hand, her face full of speechlessness, and she was no longer able to complain.

"The reward is to treat you to a meal, let's go."

She put her little hand back into Li Renyong's pocket and pulled him forward.

"I think a kiss is better. It's quick and convenient, and it doesn't waste money."

"Tsk, you want to get beaten?"

"..."

The two walked further and further away until the conversation slowly became blurred.

The wind blew gently, carrying their conversation away and drifting towards the distant sky.

Li Renyong did not choose the restaurant in front of the school, but chose a food stall near the alley.

Not only is it cheap, but it's also very close to home.

Cheng Dongri usually drinks here. The so-called food stall is just a small room covered with nylon cloth, with a few simple tables and chairs.

It is quite lively here at night. Whether you are a working person after get off work or someone who has not yet eaten, this is a great choice.

You can eat and drink.

Li Renyong looked at the food on the stall and said, "Boss, give me one serving of crescent bone, one serving of spicy conch, and one serving of fish ball soup."

He turned to Paula and said, "Do you want anything to eat?"

When Paula was in high school, she didn't have that much pocket money.

She silently calculated the price of each dish in her mind, then compared it with the amount of money in her wallet, praying that the meal would not cost too much.

"I don't have anything to eat. What you ordered is almost enough for me."

Looking at Paula's cute appearance, Li Renyong finally asked for a portion of tofu kimchi and then refused.

In the end, this meal cost Paula more than 3,000 yuan, which was a huge loss.

The two came to a vacant table and sat down.

Soon, the food was served.

Li Renyong first served Paula a bowl of rice and said, "By the way, did you bring any gifts home during your school trip?"

There isn't much money for school trips, so what gifts can I bring home?

"No, I don't have much money. I only brought some food for Deshan."

Hearing this, Li Renyong laughed.

Then he carefully picked up a piece of tofu with chopsticks and gently placed it in Paula's bowl.

The movements were natural and unpretentious, as if they had been done many times.

"How's it going? It's awesome."

Li Renyong said he was very good at successfully picking up the tofu and putting it into Paula's bowl with just one chopstick without breaking it.

"cut."

Paula looked at him with disdain at first, then gently picked up the tofu and put it into Li Renyong's bowl.

The two smiled at each other, their eyes intertwined.

Under the warm lights, their smiles are beautiful emotions that cannot be expressed in words.

“I really can’t buy it anymore.”

It was Sung Dong-il’s voice.

Paula seemed to have heard it as well, and the two of them turned to look to the side.

"It's my future father-in-law. Why is he drinking here?"

Hearing what Li Renyong said, Paula clenched her fist and hit Li Renyong on the head.

"Don't talk nonsense."

He said so, but there was an obvious smile in his eyes.

Li Renyong rubbed his head and said, "You can't beat me too often. If I get hurt, you'll have to support me."

At this time, Sung Dong-il was drinking in the food stall next to him. He looked at the old man selling things in front of him and sighed.

The old man was wearing a tattered gray coat with obvious patches on the corners.

His head was full of gray hair, and his hands seemed a little trembling, as if he had experienced too much hardships.

He was holding a bunch of lighters in his hands, obviously selling them.

Cheng Dongri's cheeks turned red from drinking. With a sad face, he took out his wallet, took out a few coins and handed them to the old man.

"This is really the last time."

The old man took out a lighter and gently placed it next to Cheng Dongri's wine glass.

"Thank you."

The sound was not very loud, but it seemed very certain.

After saying this, he walked shakily towards the guests at another table.

Li Renyong watched for a while, then turned back to continue eating his meal, constantly picking up food for Paula.

Sung Dong-il's kindness is different from that of others, and seems to be more than that of ordinary people.

Every time I see poor people, I can't help but want to help others.
