Lu Lili said so much, but she actually wanted to tell Shi Yan and Shi Chao.
No matter how their parents choose their lives, we ourselves must live our own studies and live well.
We cannot interfere or stop our parents’ actions, but we can control our own behavior.
Lu Lili glanced at Shi Yan quietly and saw Shi Yan biting her lower lip, bowing her head as if contemplating something.
Lu Lili then looked at Shi Chao and unexpectedly discovered a glimmer of excitement in his eyes.
Before she could ask him why he was excited, Shi Chao had already spoken up, saying, “Lili, it turns out we are so compatible.”
“?” Lu Lili had a puzzled expression on her face. She couldn’t figure out which of the many sentences she just said indicated that she and Shi Chao were compatible.
Even Shi Yan, with her dewy eyes like those of a deer, couldn’t help but show a trace of incredulity.
She was clearly talking about something sad, but how did her brother suddenly associate it with compatibility?
Under Lu Lili’s bewildered gaze, Shi Chao explained, “Look, both of us are students with bad grades, our parents are divorced, and we fell in love at first sight. Doesn’t that mean we are very compatible?”
Shi Yuan : “…” So awkward. Suddenly, she didn’t want to acknowledge this brother anymore.
Lu Lili: “…” Is that so?
She twitched her mouth corner and felt a bit defiant. “Where did you see that I’m a student with bad grades?”
Shi Chao felt puzzled. “Our Class 7 is the only class of students with bad grades in the grade. The teacher initially assigned you to our class, so I thought you were also a student with bad grades.”
Listening to his confident tone, Lu Lili almost coughed up blood.
She stubbornly said, “No, I don’t want to be a student with bad grades. I want to study hard and become a top student!”
“…” Shi Chao remained silent.
He looked up at the sky and the flying swallows, pretending that he hadn’t said anything earlier.
Lu Lili wanted to strike while the iron was hot and didn’t let him off the hook.
She grabbed his clothes and gestured for him to lower his head and listen to her.
“Shi Chao, would you be willing to study hard with me and strive for a good university?”
Shi Chao’s clear eyes were instantly filled with resistance.
He wasn’t cut out for studying. His grades were really bad, he was the kind who would doze off as soon as the teacher started lecturing!
How could he get into a good university? Luckily, a bright idea flashed through his mind immediately—a good way to change the topic.
Then his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he pretended to be profound, saying, “Lili, we are the same age. I don’t think your birth month is older than mine. You should call me Brother Shi Chao.”
Helpless, Lu Lili felt his resistance to studying, knowing that changing a person takes time.
She pretended not to notice his attempt to change the subject and raised her arm, which was linked with Shi Yuan, to show him, smiling brightly.
“But I am good friends with Yanyan, and Yanyan is your elder sister. So, I can also be considered your half elder sister. Calling you Little Brother Shi Chao is quite appropriate.”
“…” Shi Chao felt a bit depressed.
He was depressed that he had unwisely brought up this topic.
By this time, the three of them had already returned to the third floor of the residential complex.
Suddenly, Shi Chao reached out his hand to stop Lu Lili from walking towards her own door.
He had an expressionless face as he looked down, saying, “Lili, your shoelaces are loose.”
Lu Lili heard his words and lowered her head, releasing her hold on Shi Yan’s hand.
However, Shi Chao signaled with his eyes for Shi Yan to enter the house first.
Seeing her younger brother looking like he was about to do something mischievous, Shi Yan hesitated and stood still, feeling conflicted.
Because she saw that Lu Lili’s shoelaces weren’t loose at all…
