When I was in Reply 1988

Chapter 814 Thousand Paper Cranes

These days, a regular, legitimate music cassette tape costs around four to fifteen thousand yuan, depending on the popularity of the songs.

It's impossible for Lee Il-hwa and Kim Sun-young to spend that much money to buy cassette tapes.

Ms. Luo's unintentional flaunting of wealth was the most fatal.

Huili shook her head and said, "Zhengfeng should be able to fix it, why waste the money?"

Ms. Luo complained: "Him? He failed the college entrance exam several times. How is that possible? I've never seen him fix this before."

Huili smiled and said, "Zhengfeng is a good boy. He can do everything except study."

Everyone was surprised.

They all knew that Zhengfeng was indeed a charming and innocent child, pure, kind, optimistic and resilient.

But to say that one knows everything is a bit of an oversimplification.

Li Yihua said, "Who said that?"

At this moment, Zhengfeng, wearing a blue tracksuit, walked out of the bedroom.

Ms. Luo asked, "What's wrong? Do you want something to eat?"

Zhengfeng did not answer, pressed the pause button on the radio, took out the cassette tape and put it in the refrigerator.

The aunties looked at him with surprise.

Ms. Luo said softly, "Zhengfeng, that's not for eating."

Zhengfeng closed the refrigerator door, turned around and said, "Take it out in fifteen minutes, and you can enjoy clear sound quality again."

Immediately afterwards, he took the milk and bread and silently walked towards the bedroom.

Li Yihua praised, "Zhengfeng is really smart."

Kim Sun-young said, "As expected, there's nothing I don't understand."

Huili said, "Ayong once told me that Zhengfeng just wasn't interested in studying. He said that once he had an interest, he could succeed at anything."

Ms. Luo clasped her hands together and said, "Don't praise me. He took the college entrance exam seven times. It's better if he doesn't know about such a small thing as changing the cassette tape. I just hope he knows the correct answers to the questions."

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

Huili quickly pulled her to sit down in a chair and changed the subject: "Have a cup of coffee. By the way, is Paula back yet?"

Kim Sun-young wisely refrained from continuing the conversation about Jung-bong.

"Paula seems to have taken an exam today."

Then, the aunties started talking about Paula.

Ms. Luo also temporarily forgot about Zhengfeng.

In the bedroom.

The light fell from above, casting dappled shadows on the wooden desk.

Zhengfeng sat cross-legged at the table, with a pile of colorful origami cranes scattered in front of him.

Judging from the quantity, it must have been stacked for a long time.

After stacking another one, Zhengfeng picked up the bread, sprinkled a lot of sugar on it, and then put it in his mouth.

They ate bread while drinking milk.

We're going all night, and food and drinks are already prepared.

After finishing the bread, he casually wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, patted his hands which were still covered in breadcrumbs, and pulled out a pink piece of paper from the pile of colored paper.

After completing each step, he would gently blow a breath, as if this would imbue the energy into the body.

Zhengfeng had already imagined Meiyu holding the origami crane with a big smile on her face.

Thinking about this fills me with motivation.

……

Aze's family.

The five people were still watching the videotape.

There were three videotapes piled on the ground, all of which were movies I had seen before, and all of them were related to dance.

Liu Donglong only watched the climax, which was the dancing scene.

When they get excited, they might even stand up and dance along.

Li Renyong felt that he would really like later Indian films because every single one of them featured dancing.

Liu Donglong sat cross-legged in the front row, and when the main character on the TV screen started dancing, he suddenly jumped up.

"Look at that slide!"

Jung-hwan complained, "Hey, I can't see the screen."

Sunwoo said, "Move aside." Seeing the clock on the wall, Yoo Dong-ryong suddenly said, "It's eleven o'clock, we have to go home."

He picked up his schoolbag and walked out the door.

The group of friends all stood up.

Zheng Huan shoved Li Renyong and said, "Ayong, wake up, it's time to go home."

Li Renyong was indifferent to dance films, and he fell asleep after watching the first one.

No matter how Zheng Huan called out to him, Li Renyong showed no sign of waking up.

Aze said, "Let him sleep here tonight. I'll tell Aunt Huili."

Sunwoo laughed and said, "No need, watch me."

Then, he whispered in Li Renyong's ear, "Your Paula wants to break up with you."

"impossible."

Li Renyong looked up sharply, and the back of his head slammed against the wall with a "thud".

Aze quickly asked with concern, "Does it hurt?"

Sunwoo laughed and said, "Just kidding. With your relationship, how could you break up? You should go home."

Li Renyong rubbed the back of his head and asked, "What time is it?"

Looking up at the clock, I realized it was already eleven o'clock, and rushed out the door.

Paula should have been back by now.

You must be very tired after a whole day of exams.

I was just thinking of talking to her and comforting her, but I didn't expect the dance movie to have a hypnotic effect.

Zheng Huan noticed drool on Li Renyong's chest and collar and quickly reminded him, "Ayong, your collar..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Renyong had already dashed out the door.

Sunwoo, carrying his schoolbag, said, "Let's go too."

Inside the house, only Aze remained.

As the group walked into the alley, they happened to run into Deok-sun carrying her schoolbag home.

"Hey, how did you guys get out of here?"

Her eyes widened, and an idea formed in her mind.

"Didn't you attend evening self-study today? Did you skip class?"

Just as she was about to shout, Jung-hwan rushed forward and prepared to cover Deok-sun's mouth.

Unfortunately, his aim was a little off; he only managed to cover his chin.

I originally wanted to cover her up completely, but my fingertip poked her earlobe, my little finger got stuck at the corner of her mouth, and my whole hand looked like an off-center stamp, crookedly covering the lower half of her face.

Deok-sun wanted to exclaim, but it turned into a muffled groan. She tasted a salty and astringent flavor on her tongue, and her upper lip was still sticking out and twitching like a stranded fish.

Jung-hwan could feel the warm breath and the scent of mint.

Their eyes were wide open, bigger than the fish cakes in fried rice cakes, and their bodies were stiff as conjoined sculptures.

The atmosphere at the scene became increasingly tense.

Suddenly, Jung-hwan yelled, "Ouch! That hurts! Let go! Are you a dog?"

Having someone put your hand in your mouth is considered an interaction between couples when no one is around.

Anyway, it wasn't intentional, so it's okay if it happens once in a while.

However, Sunwoo and others were still present at the scene.

On a whim, Deok-sun had no choice but to bite Jung-hwan's hand.

To prevent biting Jung-hwan, I only used force at the very beginning.

Liu Donglong looked at the two of them and said unmoved, "I'm going home."

Sunwoo then said, "Wait for me."

Soon, only two people remained in the alley.

Jung-hwan shook his hand, staring at the reddish teeth marks, the edges still glistening with saliva.

"Are you even human? That hurts!"

Deok-sun tilted her head, blinked, and said, "Who told you to put your hand in my mouth, and with so many people seeing it?"

Jung-hwan said, "You can't use that much force."

Deok-sun stretched out her arm, took out the bag in her hand, and said, "Fish cakes, want to eat together?"
