Ji Jue was carefree.
After finishing his work in the morning, he looked at his watch, and it was just after eleven o'clock, which made him feel even more relaxed. He washed his face and hummed a song on his way to the living room.
Just out of the elevator, he ran into Ye Chun.
Ye Chun, who had slept in, was yawning and hesitating whether to go back to bed for a while longer. However, seeing Ji Jue, his expression changed drastically and he instinctively wanted to turn around and leave.
But then, his shoulder was grabbed.
Next, a smiling face appeared over his shoulder, grinning with surprise, "Hey, how did you know I got the Chongshan Badge from the church?"
Here we go again, right!
Ye Chun couldn't help but want to roll his eyes. Who the hell asked you!
Ever since this damn thing took a leave and came back a few days ago, he hasn't stopped! He pinned the Chongshan Badge on his collar, flaunting it to everyone he met, and every chance he got, he would sit opposite Ye Chun and sigh deeply about how hard it was to do good deeds and seek welfare for the poor people of Cliff City, and how the smiles on everyone's faces made it all worthwhile, hehehe... right, schoolmate?
It's like Ye Chun's nightmares are now all about a curly dog bragging about his badge, hehe non-stop.
It's simply mental pollution!
"Hey, it's been ten minutes since I last told a story about the great Ji Jue." Ji Jue was all excited, "Do you know why the great man Ji Jue doesn't hide his past of being a second author in schoolmate's watered-down thesis?"
Then, without waiting for Ye Chun to answer, he slapped his knee and said solemnly,
"Because he's kind!"
You're kind my ass!
Ji Jue you curly dog, secretly writing papers during vacation to one-up me, you wouldn't do such a human-like thing if you had even a speck of conscience!
"Alright, alright, that's enough, it's already too much."
Ye Chun's temples twitched as he raised his hand in surrender, "Many big shots are no match for you now, Ji Jue, stop showing off."
Ji Jue's expression became one of profound grief as he sighed heavily, as if hurt inwardly, "Ah, isn't this about sharing joy? Why are you so cold, schoolmate?!"
But before he could finish, he suddenly turned triumphant, "By the way, do you want to touch my badge?"
"... "
Ye Chun clenched his teeth, and veins popped on his forehead.
His fists creaked from the friction of his knuckles.
Finally, he couldn't stand it any longer!
Can't stand it, can't stand the heavens, can't stand you, you damn thing!
She turned back, sighed, and looked toward the main seat in the living room. Professor Ye was reading the newspaper, seemingly indifferent and without any intention to intervene, so she nodded with a twitching smile, forcing a voice through her gritted teeth, "Alright, sharing joy, right?"
As she spoke, without waiting for Ji Jue's reaction, she raised her hand to signal him to wait, then turned and walked to a cabinet, took out a box from below, opened it, and it was unclear how many things or how much space was inside, because she half climbed in. After rummaging around, she pulled out a box.
She slapped it down on the table in front of Ji Jue.
"Are you talking about this?"
The moment the box opened, Ji Jue almost felt dazzled... it was a badge almost identical to the one on his chest, and even had an extra gold trim!
The Chongguang Church's mark was unmistakable.
When his trembling hands finally turned the badge over, he saw the name on the back labeled in both languages of the Federation Empire—[Ye Chun]!
"Ah this..."
Ji Jue's vision darkened as he stared in shock.
At this moment, looking up at Ye Chun sitting with her legs crossed and coldly smiling, he couldn't help but gasp several times, speechless.
Such a low-key style, such a sharp counterattack, and this all too familiar scenario... was this the legendary "pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger?"
What? The protagonist of the gratifying storyline isn't me?!
No, this is bad... I've become the side character who gets slapped in the face in the plot!
You're the Dragon King?!
"What's wrong?"
Ye Chun pinned the badge onto her chest, crossed her legs, gazing down from the peak, casting a boundless shadow, "Do you want to touch my badge?"
Just like God and Buddha, with a solemn and serene demeanor, looking down at the splashed monkey before her.
"Evil obstacle, having seen the future, why not bow?!"
Dead silence.
In the prolonged silence, Ji Jue several times started to speak but stopped, finally moving his gaze away stiffly, "Well, let's talk about the blessing I just received..."
"No, let's talk about the Chongshan Badge instead!"
Ye Chun raised her voice, "It's been ten minutes since I last heard the story of Ji the Great Kind, I really want to revisit the classic tale. Come on, tell me how Ji the Great Kind painstakingly persuaded people to be good, how Chen Xingzhou found his way back and cried at the spiritual hall."
"Let's talk about the blessing instead." Ji Jue cringed, pleading humbly.
"Badge!"
Ye Chun snorted coldly, then suddenly twisted her mouth with a smile, "Do you know why the great Ye Chun hasn't smashed the stupid, curly dog junior's head yet?"
"...I'm going to cook."
Ji Jue hung his head, obediently stood up, not daring to cause more trouble, and continuously retreated to the door before daring to turn and disappear into the kitchen.
"Recently, I prefer lighter tastes, just four dishes and a soup will do, go easy on the oil and salt. After cooking, mop the floor, tidy up the kitchen, then wash the fruit, remember to peel them."
Ye Chun instructed, "Move it, Tide Sound Workshop doesn't keep freeloaders."
Hearing the clatter of pots and pans in the kitchen, she couldn't help but sneer, crossed her legs, leaning back on the sofa, triumphant, "Hmph, can't I handle you?"
Little Ji Jue, easy to manipulate!
