Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 636 Flirting between lovers
"You can do all the things your father can do, can't you?" The uncle turned his head towards him.

“What can I do? He didn’t teach me anything.” The Taoist priest smiled bitterly. “The things I usually show in front of you are all learned from Lin Zhengying. In some ways, Lin Zhengying spent more time with me than my father. My father… he’s a man without integrity.”

The Taoist priest leaned back, his eyes flashing with a dark light.

The uncle paused, then looked up slightly: "But Mr. Xu certainly knows better than Lin Zhengying how to be your father... Perhaps it's precisely because he knows his days are numbered that he can't teach you those things, but instead hopes that you can have a respectable and honorable career like other children, get into a good university, become a doctor or a lawyer, get married and have children..."

The Taoist priest raised his eyes and looked at the increasingly thin man on the hospital bed. His eyes were dazed for a moment before he grinned.

"Uncle, sit against the bed, it's tiring like this." After saying that, the Taoist priest got up, walked to the foot of the bed, and rocked the headboard upwards.

"Hmm." The middle-aged man leaned back with a smile and let out a long breath.

He closed his eyes and sighed, "Little Lamb, actually, I think the same way as your father. At this time, all I can think about is my family and children."

"I hope my two darlings can go to school, work, and get married like other children. Haha, if they didn't do well on the college entrance exam, they can just take it again. It's enough. They don't have to keep taking exams like their father. It's unnecessary and wastes so much of their youth. They haven't even seen the beautiful landscapes of our motherland."

The uncle closed his eyes, his voice slow and leisurely, as if he were telling his most cherished wish.

Suddenly, he winced in pain, his body trembling slightly. After a few seconds, the pain subsided, his brow relaxed, but he seemed to age even further.

Xu Siyang couldn't bear to watch this scene, and his nose tingled with tears.

The man's two children did not match in terms of bone marrow, and no matching relatives could be found. He had to apply to the national bone marrow registry for a search. The doctor said that the initial screening and obtaining a response from the recipient would take at least two months.

This is perhaps what it's like to be diagnosed with a terminal illness: the first hurdle is the financial barrier, and once enough money is raised, you find that money ultimately cannot solve the problem.

As Liu Wangchun said, problems that can be solved with money are not really problems; the worst problems are those that money can't solve.

"Uncle, I'm going back to class now. You should get some rest." Xu Siyang slowly pulled the blanket on the hospital bed up a little.

The man didn't react; his breathing was light and even, as if he were asleep.

The Taoist priest stopped talking and slowed his pace as he quietly walked towards the door. Just as his hand touched the door, the uncle's voice suddenly came from behind: "Little Lamb?!"

The Taoist priest turned around and saw the uncle looking at him with his eyes open, looking somewhat confused.

"What did you just say? I think I fell asleep..."

"I……"

The Taoist priest stood still for a moment, then suddenly became serious. He took a step to the side with his right leg, crossed his forearms together, and placed his right index and middle fingers together in a sword-like gesture between his eyebrows. At the same time, he murmured two unintelligible words, and then extended his sword-like finger straight out, pointing it at the uncle.

"Edict!"

The middle-aged man blinked in confusion, then, after regaining his senses, asked with a smile, "What kind of spell did you cast on me?"

He remembered the Taoist priest's posture when casting the curse. Whenever the Taoist priest saw a boy he didn't like at school, he would strike a pose and cast a "curse of impotence" on him.

Several times, the older man would jokingly ask from the side, "Little sheep, is this the only spell you can cast?"

In the ward at that moment, Xu Siyang withdrew his hand and responded seriously:

"A mantra for health and peace."

The middle-aged man stared at the baby-faced boy at the door for a long time, his eyes reddening.

He hadn't cried in front of anyone for a month since being diagnosed, because he didn't want to show his vulnerable side to his family and friends, but at this moment he really couldn't hold back anymore.

The middle-aged man raised his hand to wipe his cheek, tears streaming down his face in an instant: "...Does it work?"

The Taoist priest tilted his head, laughing through his tears: "What I cast must work!"

……

In classroom 303, the Taoist priest glanced at the empty seat next to him, took his textbook out of his desk and placed it on the table, along with a notebook. He figured the older man would probably still be taking the final exams.

"Hey, Lu Yuanqiu."

Lu Yuanqiu felt a poke in his back and turned around to see Zhong Jincheng. Bai Qingxia also glanced over.

"what?"

"Have you inquired about the innovation and entrepreneurship project? When can we start that?"

Lu Yuanqiu nodded: "The earliest we can do it is next semester. The base is still occupied by the senior students."

Seeing Zhong Jincheng nod slowly, Lu Yuanqiu asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Tired from delivering food?"

Bai Qingxia then reached out and pulled aside Zhong Jincheng's sleeve, revealing a plaster on his wrist.

Zhong Jincheng quickly shrank his arm and explained, "No, no, no, this was put on by my senior. I just complained to her that my arm was a little sore, and she bought me a bunch of plasters the next day."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jingfeng's mouth curled up to the sky: "Oh my, oh my, you're showing off now. You've finally found an opportunity."

Lu Yuanqiu also curled his lip: "Oh my, what are you showing off for? It's like you don't have a boyfriend."

"Yes." Liang Jingfeng habitually echoed, but his face stiffened as he realized that the shot was aimed at him.

He instantly bared his teeth at Lu Yuanqiu like a vicious dog.

Zheng Yifeng, who was standing next to him, chuckled.

Seeing the irresistible smile on Bai Qingxia's face, Lu Yuanqiu seized the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, keeping his eyes fixed on the girl beside him.

"Sweet Xiaxia, hug me~"

Lu Yuanqiu opened his arms and hugged Bai Qingxia's waist, burying his head in Bai Qingxia's chest. The smile on Bai Qingxia's pretty face disappeared, and she frowned, raising her fists to gently tap Lu Yuanqiu's back.

"Oh, right." Lu Yuanqiu seemed to remember something.

He suddenly straightened up, and Bai Qingxia was stunned. Her two small, fair fists were suspended in mid-air. Lu Yuanqiu put his hands behind his back, and from Zheng Yifeng's angle, he could see that Lu Yuanqiu's hands were inside his schoolbag.

"What?" Bai Qingxia asked.

Lu Yuanqiu grinned mischievously and raised an eyebrow, urging, "Punch me twice in the eyes, quick."

Bai Qingxia shrank back, pulling her face away and her hands back to her neck: "You're a pervert..."

Zhong Jincheng, sitting at the table behind, added, "Did his perversion only become apparent in a day or two?"

Bai Qingxia turned her head and suddenly heard Lu Yuanqiu's retort: ​​"Get lost, what business is it of yours if we're just flirting as a couple?"

Upon hearing the word "flirting," Bai Qingxia immediately became even less interested in talking to him and turned around to face the podium as she sat up.

"If you don't hit me, I'll harass you for a whole class."

Hearing Lu Yuanqiu's threat, Bai Qingxia reluctantly put down his pen. He turned to look at Lu Yuanqiu, raised his two small fists side by side, and gently pressed them against Lu Yuanqiu's eyes: "Ha."

The girl even thoughtfully added a voiceover.

"Waaah—" Lu Yuanqiu choked out, "Xiaxia gave me black eyes..."

He lowered his head as if crying, but then immediately raised an adorable panda plush toy in front of Bai Qingxia.
