I'm afraid I'm not interested in love

Chapter 514 Special Magnetic Field
Lin Tong realizes that he is a very anxious person, and this has not changed since he was a child.

If someone tells him in advance that a difficult thing will happen in a few days, he will be restless and toss and turn in those few days.

Most of the anxiety I had as a child came from the payment notices issued by teachers at short notice.

Although it is nine years of compulsory education, the necessary tuition and fees and class activity fees are still a considerable expense.

Every time Lin Tong received such a notice, he felt very painful because it was really difficult for him to ask his sister for money.

Although as long as he asked, Lin Zhiwan would definitely agree with a smile, and then find a way to raise money as soon as possible.

But facing such a sister, every word Lin Tong said was like a slap in the face.

So even if you are mentally prepared on the way home, the moment you open the door and see Lin Zhiwan, all these mental preparations will collapse instantly.

During these moments, she was sometimes soaking her frostbitten fingers in hot water, sometimes washing rotten vegetable leaves bought for a few cents at the vegetable market, and sometimes waving him over to help send a text message to ask the foreman when the wages for the previous week could be settled.

Because of this anxiety and guilt, Lin Tong was always the last one in the class who had not paid the tuition.

The teacher would often call on him to stand up and ask him why he hadn't handed in his homework yet.

Under the gaze of the whole class, Lin Tong felt that his anxiety disorder might never be cured.

Fortunately, he was later admitted to No. 1 Middle School, the best public high school in the city. Poor students like him with good grades are often treated with respect and support.

In addition, he had an extremely responsible class teacher like Li Lu, who quickly helped him apply for exemption of tuition and miscellaneous fees after understanding the situation.

Many students from poor families will feel inferior because of this, after all, it is the most face-conscious period during adolescence. Lin Tong also feels this way, but he doesn't care.

Even if I have to go through a lot of application procedures or my personal information will be made public, as long as it can reduce my sister's burden, nothing matters.

Although it is precisely because of this that the unknown Lin Tong was targeted by small groups like Hou Xiaohong, and was ridiculed and bullied for a long time.

Lin Tong tried hard to get rid of these external influences and focused on studying. He thought that life would gradually get better, but he never expected that academic anxiety would follow.

The education model of a key high school like No. 1 High School is completely different from that of the town.

In class, students were given a lot of time for free discussion and divergent thinking. While others were discussing enthusiastically, Lin Tong could only stare at the blank draft paper in a daze.

English classes were taught entirely in English, and Lin Tong's poor accent made him never have the courage to read aloud during the morning reading class.

Lin Tong had never ranked second in exams since he was a child, but in the first monthly exam at No. 1 Middle School, he was ranked outside the top 100 on the transcript.

This sense of disappointment quickly made him want to back out.

And it's not just about study, it's also true in life.

The students in the class all come from well-off families, and during breaks they usually talk about topics like new sneakers, where they're going to travel during the summer vacation, and who's going to hold a concert.

Lin Tong was listening nearby and it was like he was listening to a divine book.

The Beatles, Backstreet Boys, Coldplay, when the English teacher played their songs in class, the students naturally sang along as if they were singing "Happy Birthday To You".

People like Hou Xiaohong would secretly complain that the teacher is so unfashionable and only listens to these old songs that are too popular.

At this moment, Lin Tong deeply understood what it meant to "fill in the gaps".

Out of place.

This is the only feeling Lin Tong can experience.

It's like a freshwater fish being released into the sea, where there is always the risk of dying from dehydration.

His anxiety shifted from the payment slip to the transcript.

In fact, Lin Tong had been secretly observing for a while and found that he was not the only one who didn't fit in in the class.

Compared to his cautious and people-pleasing personality, that person is more like the type who does what he wants and does whatever he wants.

During his free time in PE class, he would always practice shooting at the basket by himself;

He went to the cafeteria to eat alone;
He never participated in free discussions in class or raised his hand to answer questions.

After observing carefully like this for a while, Lin Tong almost thought that he had a chance to make friends, after all, like attracts like.

Until the results of the first monthly exam were posted on the classroom door.

Lin Tong searched from the bottom to the top and found his name in the middle. This was actually beyond his expectations, as he originally thought he would be at the bottom.

Lin Tong had just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the person who "might be willing to be friends with him" in the first place.

Su Chengyi.

Ranked first in the class and first in the grade.

Because there was no division into arts and science classes in the first year of high school, the total score was 1050, and his score was 1007.

Lin Tong fled back to his seat and never thought about making friends again.

You thought he was a dark, creepy rat person like you, but it turns out he is a true genius who just isolates everyone unilaterally.

Unexpectedly, such a lonely and arrogant genius would extend an olive branch to him when he was at his lowest and most broken in the last semester of his senior year.

Lin Tong still finds it incredible when he thinks about it now.

He felt like an NPC in the game, waiting and waiting, until finally the protagonist received the side quest asked of him.

So the protagonist rushed over and saved his life.

And now the protagonist is casually throwing another worrying problem at him.

"In that case, come with me to meet Chen Jinzhi."

When Su Chengyi said this, Lin Tong almost fell into the Weiming Lake next to him.

???

"I thought about it and decided that she should get to know more of my friends."

Su Chengyi continued to say this.

Lin Tong's heart almost jumped out of his chest. He looked nervously at Chu Qingmian and Han Bing who were walking in front of him. He couldn't understand how the people next to him could be so bold.

Lin Tong suddenly became sensitive to the wind direction, fearing that the sound of him saying the three words "Chen Jinzhi" would be carried by the wind to the ears of the people in front.

Su Chengyi seemed very calm. Unlike Lin Tong who was extremely nervous, he knew very well that it was impossible to hear anything from such a long distance.

"No matter from which angle you look at it, the more points of contact between her and me, the better. This way, if the Shura Field breaks out in the future, I'll have one more informant."

Su Chengyi paused, turned to look at Lin Tong, and patted him on the shoulder.

"So, Wingman No. 1 Mutou-san, it's your turn again."

".Ah, oh."

Lin Tong's face looked bitter.

If it was something else, it would be fine, but the other party is Chen Jinzhi.

Although they were classmates for a while, Lin Tong and Chen Jinzhi still didn't have much contact. If it weren't for Su Chengyi, they would probably only see each other through the screen for the rest of their lives.

Despite this, Lin Tong still felt that Chen Jinzhi was one of the most thoughtful people in the world.

There is no reason to support this conclusion, but I just feel this way.

She seems easy to get along with and seems to have a warm smile on her face to everyone.

But if you observe carefully, you will find that her smile is never as bright as her eyes, and her emotions are restrained and stable.

Lin Tong felt that he was the type who could read people's expressions, but it was still a bit too much of a challenge for him to hide Su Chengyi's shocking secret from Chen Jinzhi.

Su Chengyi, who was performing a high-wire walking performance, had his usual expression of "Why are you so nervous? This is just a normal thing, don't worry."

"Boss Yi, I understand the reason, but if you two young lovers bring me along, wouldn't it be a bit too much of a third wheel?"

Lin Tong said this very tactfully.

"Well, no."

Su Chengyi laughed and shook his head slightly mysteriously.

"There will be a surprise waiting for you then."

Surprise? It should be a shock, right?
After that day, due to some interfering factors, such as the celebrities' schedules and the influence of the surprise event mentioned by Su Chengyi, the meeting date was not tomorrow or the day after tomorrow as he said.

The meeting plan was delayed for a few days, and Lin Tong waited anxiously for several days.

During this period, Lin Tong still cheered up and found a part-time job on weekends for this semester, but when he was sitting in the library and daydreaming, he couldn't help but pray secretly for some force majeure so that Su Chengyi would change his mind.

But it turns out that prayer is useless, and in the end, what is coming will come.

The meeting place was set at a Chinese restaurant, which was very down-to-earth, commonly known as a fly restaurant.

Su Chengyi and Lin Tong arrived earlier. The waiter glanced at Lin Tong, who looked uneasy, and chose to hand the menu to Su Chengyi.

The round table in the private room can normally accommodate about eight people. It seems that this is a small private room specially selected. Lin Tong took the tea handed by the waiter and drank a few big gulps to calm down. Talk less, say nice things, and don't respond unless necessary.

Lin Tong repeated in his mind the several principles he had set for himself.

"Beef with Hangzhou pepper, stir-fried liver and kidney, tofu with crab roe, steamed pork with rice flour. And a grilled fish, just a little spicy."

Su Chengyi was marking on the menu and glanced at Lin Tong.

"Is there anything Mu Tou would like to eat?"

"Ah, no, no, Mr. Yi, just order it."

Lin Tong waved his hands quickly.

"That's all for now."

Su Chengyi put the pen on the menu and handed it back to the waiter.

After the waiter left, Lin Tong asked curiously:
"Boss Yi, did you just say that the place for dinner today was chosen by Chen Jinzhi?"

It is hard to imagine that today's most popular female star would come to such a small restaurant to eat. The hygiene conditions and environment seem to be very average.

But business is good, this dinner time is very lively, and the air is filled with the aroma of red oil and chili peppers.

Everyone was eating so enthusiastically and sweating that they probably had no time to pay attention to whether any female stars sneaked in.

"Ah."

Su Chengyi nodded and took a piece of tissue to wipe the table.

"She said another guest preferred this local taste."

"Another guest."

When it comes to this, Lin Tong hesitated to speak.

"take it easy."

And Su Chengyi's face showed the same mysterious smile as last time.

This smile obviously made Lin Tong even more nervous.

"Yi, Mr. Yi, who is this?"

Su Chengyi originally wanted to keep the secret, but when he raised his eyes, he found that he was really nervous and didn't know what to do with his hands and feet, and it was a little funny for a moment.

"Why are you so nervous?"

"call."

Lin Tong let out a breath, took off his glasses, and wiped the lenses with a tissue to hide his anxiety.

"Well, actually."

Just as Su Chengyi was about to speak, someone knocked on the door of the private room.

"Boom, boom, boom."

Three polite clicks.

Su Chengyi lowered his head and laughed, then asked loudly:

"Sir, don't you drink?"

“Any aspirin?”

The person outside the door quickly answered with a gentle and attractive female voice, with a hint of smile in her tone.

Lin Tong was completely confused. He had no idea what their nonsensical conversation meant. It sounded like a secret code among an underground organization.

After hearing the other party's answer, Su Chengyi smiled and said:

"Please come in."

The door opened and a tall girl wearing a hat walked in.

She deliberately pulled the brim of her hat down low so that her face could not be seen clearly. From the angle of passers-by, they could only barely see a section of her beautiful jawline.

A slightly shorter girl followed behind her. She had the same outfit as her, but she was wearing a white cotton mask.

Su Chengyi pulled out a chair, stood up, walked to the two of them, and reached out to close the door again.

The girl in the hat cooperated by leaning back slightly to make room for him to close the door.

"Click."

After hearing the sound of the door lock, Su Chengyi bent his knuckles and lifted the brim of her hat until he could see her eyes.

Chen Jinzhi's smile had already spread to her peach blossom eyes, and her eyebrows were slightly raised.

Su Chengyi lowered his head and kissed her lips.

"so long?"

"There's a bit of traffic on the road."

The curve of Chen Jinzhi's mouth deepened and he kissed back gently.

At this moment, Lin Tong felt that his eyes were about to be blinded by the light.

There seemed to be some special magnetic field between Chen Jinzhi and Su Chengyi. As soon as they met, they automatically isolated themselves from everyone around them.

For a moment, the air was filled with the aroma of dog food.

Fortunately, he was not the only one who was blinded.

The petite girl who came in after Chen Jin put her hands on her hips and first let out a very unhappy "ah", followed by a string of gibberish interjections.

",."

Lin Tong didn't understand, he only vaguely heard pronunciations like "Asi" and "couple".

At this time, the girl wearing a mask suddenly noticed him.

"?"

She sounded a little surprised, her eyes sparkling under the brim of her hat.

For some reason, Lin Tong hurriedly looked away and swallowed stiffly.

"The food is served!"

The waiter's voice came from outside the door.

Su Chengyi put Chen Jinzhi's hat back on, and brushed his fingertips across the corners of her lips, wiping off the lip gloss marks that were smudged by the kiss just now.

He then opened the door and helped the waiter carry the dishes to the table.

Except for the grilled fish which was ordered and served last, all other dishes were served together.

In a restaurant like this, efficiency in serving food is very important.

Chen Jinzhi pulled out a chair and sat down, nodding and smiling at Lin Tong.

"Hello, Lin Tong, long time no see."

Lin Tong was a little surprised for a moment that she still remembered his name, but he soon realized that this was also a blessing from the great god next to him.

This great man, under the direction of another girl, placed the plate of crab roe tofu in front of her.

"Hello, classmate Chen. Long time no see."

Considering her celebrity status, Lin Tong held back her name and just nodded nervously.

The waiter exited and closed the door.

Su Chengyi returned to his seat, Chen Jinzhi's eyes followed his movements, and the two of them held hands inexplicably, it was 100% natural.

Su Chengyi took off her hat and pushed aside the hair that had fallen in front of her eyebrows.

Chen Jinzhi seemed to be used to his actions and waited quietly for him to finish. Then he turned to Lin Tong and smiled.

"Sorry, I forgot to introduce her. That person over there is my good friend. Ah, if you take off your mask, you might recognize her too."

Lin Tong was stunned when he heard this, and turned his head to look at the girl.

She received Chen Jinzhi's signal and roughly took off her cotton mask and hat and hugged them to her chest.

"Ah! You are."

After seeing her face clearly, Lin Tong opened his eyes wide and was speechless for a moment.

Yes. It's over. What's it called?!
