Chapter 263 : Password, This Password is Too Weak

"Lin Li, you didn't take Viagra or stimulants before running, did you? Ten minutes and twenty-five seconds, and you even left a six-second margin for error to show off breaking the record. Fuck, I probably couldn't run this time even if my life depended on it."

On the way back to the class base with the boys from the back row who played well together, after giving Wang Yuezhi the Happy Corner or "flying the plane," Wang Ze clicked his tongue and sighed.

Hearing this, Lin Li smiled at Wang Ze, showing a hint of mockery:

"Wang Ze, if you open any webpage that requires an account right now, then change the password, and try setting the password to 'wangze', do you know what will happen?

"The answer is, the webpage will mark a red 'weak' next to it. Do you understand what that means? You useless thing."

Wang Ze: "?"

Your mom.

Such strong attack power.

"Fuck, you're showing off again," Wang Ze laughed and cursed.

"But speaking of this, it's really fucked up. Some accounts forcefully require passwords to have uppercase and lowercase letters and symbols. To be honest, uppercase letters and symbols are simply not passwords acceptable to humans.

"Fuck, is it possible that the reason I set such weak passwords is because my memory is also very weak?" Zhou Baowei complained upon hearing this.

He was used to setting a similar password for all his accounts, which meant that if he had a new password and didn't record it in time, he would easily forget it, and retrieving it was troublesome.

"That's not right, is it? Studies show that pigs have one of the best memories in the animal kingdom, even comparable to Bufan and primates. Baowei, you're dragging them down a bit," Lin Li looked at Zhou Baowei in confusion upon hearing this, then sighed and shook his head.

Zhou Baowei, Bai Bufan: "?"

"Lin Li, I've noticed recently that you clearly haven't memorized much, but you get everything right on dictations and stuff. How did you improve your memory? I wanted to improve mine by taking fish oil before, but found it useless."

Zhou Baowei suppressed the desire to counterattack and humbly asked for advice.

It's not too late to kill Lin Li after learning it first.

"Is fish oil useless? Isn't it generally recognized as helping to improve memory? I was even wondering if I should take it," Bai Bufan asked Zhou Baowei upon hearing this.

"Not exactly. The main thing is my memory simply doesn't support reminding me to take fish oil every day," Zhou Baowei scratched his head and chuckled upon hearing this.

Lin Li, Bai Bufan, Wang Ze: "(；☉_☉)?"

"Then the fucking useless thing isn't the fish oil, it's you!" Lin Li, Bai Bufan, and Wang Ze couldn't hold it in.

"Same meaning, same meaning," Zhou Baowei felt embarrassed.

"Lin Li, wait a moment." At this time, the referee walked over. Having just finished recording the time of the last athlete who didn't give up, he was free.

"Lin Li, are you interested in trying to practice sports? You have some talent in long-distance running," the referee asked.

Sure enough, it still aroused these people's love for talent.

Being too excellent is really troublesome.

After secretly feeling good for a while, Lin Li waved his hand: "Thank you, Teacher, but forget it. Studying sports cannot save Nansang Middle School. Any foolish and weak alumni, no matter how strong and robust their physique is, can only become meaningless material for public display and spectators."

(Translator's Note: A parody of a famous quote by Lu Xun about studying medicine vs literature).

Referee: "?"

What are you babbling about?

Bai Bufan glanced at Lin Li. He's acting like Master Shuren again.

(Translator's Note: Shuren is Lu Xun's real name).

But Lin Li is right, studying sports indeed cannot save Nansang Middle School, but civil engineering can.

Civil engineering is great, no need to say more.

"Alright, but let's add each other's contact info. You'll have one more option in the future. If you're interested, you can contact me then." The referee didn't force it. After all, Lin Li's time was good, but not to the point of being a genius.

Moreover, if he knew that Lin Li was actually almost eighteen, not the age of a normal Senior One student, the amazement value would be greatly discounted.

Just as the referee left, another person ran towards Lin Li and the others.

It was Du Hansi.

But the target wasn't Lin Li.

"Wang Ze!! I! Fuck! Your! Mom's! Warmth!" Although he was second, Du Hansi, who had only just recovered, directly tackled Wang Ze to the ground from behind, went up with a grappling hold, and cursed angrily.

"Ah? What's wrong? Anxious about losing to our class? Hansi, if you open any webpage that requires an account right now..." The attacked Wang Ze looked innocent, feeling wronged, while applying what he just learned.

"What's wrong? Still saying I'm weak? Making me provoke Lin Li, you dare to play me! My butt has no fucking innocence left! And you're still asking what's wrong!" Du Hansi became even more furious after being mocked, his fists clenched as tight as his sphincter when he was running just now.

So the two started "fighting."

Lin Li, Bai Bufan, and Zhou Baowei looked at each other.

Although they didn't know what happened, right now their classmate was being beaten by someone they didn't know. Help relatives, not reason. Why bother distinguishing right from wrong, just start fighting.

"Du Hansi (bro whose name I don't know), we've come to help you!!!"

Wang Ze, who was almost about to turn over and ride on Du Hansi to regain control, was instantly thrown back to the ground by his bros.

Wang Ze looked at the three people who were excitedly starting to beat him: "(；☉_☉)?"

Fucking hell, made friends carelessly.

...

Hearing the noise behind him, Wang Yuezhi, who was using his cheek to feel the temperature of the holy mineral water, turned his head. The moment he saw Lin Li, Bai Bufan, and the others rushing towards him, he felt his little Wang Yuezhi shrink as if entering winter early.

Wang Yuezhi prepared to run away in horror.

"Wang Yuezhi, come help! Sports students are hard to restrain! We need another person to pull his legs!" And Lin Li shouted at Wang Yuezhi.

Wang Yuezhi: "?"

Wang Yuezhi, who had already started running, turned back and found that the person being held in the middle was actually Wang Ze.

Wang Yuezhi didn't want to fly a plane in this life, but if he wasn't the plane being flown but the pilot, then that was a different story.

"Coming!" Wang Yuezhi carefully handed the mineral water to his roommate, then walked up.

Because I've been caught in the rain, I know where the rain hurts the most.

"Get lost, Wang Yuezhi! If you do this, you're not a member of the Wang family! When we're away from home, Wangs must help Wangs! Fuck!" Wang Ze tried to awaken Wang Yuezhi's conscience.

"Wang Yuezhi!"

"Bastard!"

"Ah!!"

Bad news came from the soccer net again.

...

Looking at Wang Ze, who was clutching his little Wang and trembling on the ground, Du Hansi felt much better.

Then he walked towards Lin Li: "Lin Li, let's add each other as friends. No touching, no knowing each other. I found that if I'm not the object of your molestation, you're actually quite fun. I'll treat you to a meal next time I have the chance."

Lin Li smiled and nodded: "Indeed, it's also fate. Then courtesy demands reciprocity, I'll molest you next time I have the chance."

Du Hansi: "?"

Is this how courtesy demands reciprocity?

"Let's forget about this, thanks."

The school sports meeting also had medals, but they had to wait for the broadcast notification before going to the podium to receive them.

And the podium was actually very simple, just a base divided into three heights, with the Nansang Middle School badge and some other logos on it.

So Lin Li and the boys continued to return to the class base first.

On the small whiteboard, the next event with a classmate participating was the women's 3000 meters. No wonder the Class Rep wasn't here either; she probably went with Ding Sihan to accompany Qu Wanqiu to roll call.

"Lin Li, why didn't Water Margin go into detail in my most anticipated Pan Jinlian segment? I want to see Pan Jinlian hanging upside down on the grape vine."

Wang Ze, whose little Wang Ze had almost resurrected, sat on a chair, resting his legs on Lin Li's legs, scrolling through the e-book in his hand, and said somewhat dully.

"Then you have to read the spiced-up version of Jin Ping Mei. Or you can just fucking search on forbidden manga sites, it's even in full-color ink wash style. Unfortunately, I forgot the license plate number," Lin Li said with a smile.

"Just do a simultaneous interpretation for me."

Lin Li raised an eyebrow, also feeling the mood. He stood up, took the whiteboard eraser as a gavel, and slapped the table:

"Since the audience wants to hear it, then I can hardly decline!"

"It is said that Pan Jinlian didn't hold the bamboo pole firmly, and it slipped from her hand and fell out the window. Not straight, not upright, but it happened to hit the headscarf of a passerby."

"Jinlian bowed deeply and said: This slave girl slipped for a moment, please don't blame me, sir~"

"And Ximen Qing raised his face, saw such a charming lady, and suddenly fell into deep, strange reveries..."

Lin Li's face already wore the appropriate smile, and Wang Ze and Bai Bufan, who originally also had lecherous smiles, suddenly stopped smiling and signaled Lin Li with their eyes at the same time.

Lin Li immediately turned his head. Fortunately, it wasn't Xue Jian, just Chen Yuying.

Chen Yuying crossed her hands behind her back, blinked, and asked with a hint of curiosity: "What was Ximen Qing revering about? Was it very strange?"

Lin Li: "..."

Lin Li coughed softly twice and continued without changing his expression:

"Continuing from the previous chapter, Ximen Qing saw Pan Jinlian and suddenly fell into deep, strange reveries—'Why didn't the bamboo pole go up but fell down? Could it be that some force of the Earth attracted the bamboo pole to fall?'

"Thus, Ximen Qing's Three Laws..."

Wang Ze, Bai Bufan: "?"

Who the fuck wants to hear this?

Fuck, consider yourself lucky, Pan Jinlian.

Hearing this, Chen Yuying chuckled, fine light rippling in her eyes: "So that's how it is?"

"Otherwise? If you have another version, Class Rep, then here's the gavel. I'll hand over the heavy responsibility of storytelling to you. I also want to hear it," Lin Li handed the whiteboard eraser in his hand to Chen Yuying, looking forward to it.

"I don't have one." Chen Yuying naturally didn't take it, but smiled and said:

"Lin Li, oh Lin Li, you just have so many ideas."

"I'm alright. A friend of mine has a spotted Bufan, it has a lot of spots (ideas)." Lin Li waved his hand very modestly upon hearing this.

(Translator's Note: "Dian zi" means both "spots" and "ideas").

Bai Bufan: "?"

Next time you two do your roleplay, you can leave me out of it, thanks.

"Let's go, Wang Ze, go to the toilet." Bai Bufan felt he should leave, so he looked at Wang Ze.

"OK, I wanted to go too, let's go!"

"According to Lin Li's version, Newton would have to cry all day in the future, saying he feels like he's lived his whole life in Ximen Qing's shadow," Wang Ze stood up to follow, smiling and saying at the same time.

"Actually, Newton wasn't as great as you think," Bai Bufan smiled and demystified Newton for Wang Ze upon hearing this:

"According to unofficial history, when Newton wrote Newton's laws, what he actually wanted to express was 'I fucking really love big butts and big boobs to death'. But the publisher told Newton 'Writing it like this is a bit inappropriate', so Newton changed it to 'The greater the mass, the greater the attraction'.

"Understand? Actually, Old Niu was also a man of passion. His surname is Niu (Cow/Bull), and he also believes in Niu. He believes that Niu Niu's (dick's) judgment will not be wrong."

Wang Ze: "?"

"Your fucking unofficial history has started expanding its territory?"

"Just tell me which Newton you approve of."

"Wild Niu, I also really love big butts and big boobs to death."

"I beg to differ." Bai Bufan, who had previously had a fetish dispute with Lin Li, shook his head.

So a new dispute began.

...

In the class base.

Since Bai Bufan and Wang Ze vacated their seats, Chen Yuying sat down next to Lin Li.

"Your hair is all still blowing backwards. It's been so long since you finished running, and you haven't tidied it up. It looks like a chicken coop," Chen Yuying's gaze fell on Lin Li's messy hair, and she said softly.

Hearing this, Lin Li casually ran his fingers through his hair. The tips of his hair raised fine dust in the sunlight. He said indifferently:

"It's harmless. Anyway, it's just changing from a handsome guy to a handsome guy with a chicken coop hair."

The corners of Chen Yuying's mouth curled up. She turned her head away, leaving Lin Li with a profile of her resting her head on one hand on the table, her body trembling slightly.

"Class Rep, what do you mean by this, looking down on me?" Seeing this, Lin Li seemed a bit unwilling. He slapped the "gavel" again: "You must know, just now, sporting this chicken coop hair, I was asked for my WeChat by two people. This is the absolute manifestation of the charm of a chicken coop handsome guy!"

Only then did Chen Yuying stop smiling. She slightly turned her head, revealing her profile with her palm covering the lower half of her face. Her clear eyes seemed to blink at a higher frequency, her eyelashes casting a small shadow under her eyes. After looking at Lin Li like this for a second, she asked softly:

"Did they ask you face-to-face?"

"Yeah, quite brave. At least much braver than that coward Tao whatever," Lin Li nodded.

"Are they also in Senior One? Did you add them?" Chen Yuying asked again.

"One is, and the other isn't," Lin Li told the truth, leaning back and stretching: "Added both. After all, it's hard to refuse. And the one in the same grade is quite my type. If he didn't add me, I kind of wanted to add him."

"Oh." Chen Yuying's voice was as light as a feather.

After responding like this, she turned her head away again, and the angle was even larger than when she had her back to Lin Li and snickered just now. Her ponytail fell down, perfectly covering her profile.

Lin Li watched Chen Yuying's movements, blinked, and then asked again: "Oh right, that Senior One guy said he wanted to treat me to a meal, but I feel like we just met and haven't reached that stage yet. Class Rep, how do you think I should reply to his message?"

"I don't know." Chen Yuying responded in a low voice. Her mood wasn't high, and her voice sounded muffled in her soft chest.

In a direction Lin Li couldn't see, the girl's right hand held an unopened marker on the table, aimlessly drawing back and forth on the surface. Her lips were pursed into a straight line, and her eyes flickered with displeasure.

"Hey, he already sent me a message. Class Rep, do you have any cute stickers? Give me a few, I'll reply to him."

Lin Li looked at Du Hansi's message on his phone, seemingly completely unaware of someone's mood change, and said to Chen Yuying.

"...I'll send them to you later." Chen Yuying opened her mouth, and finally just said.

"Not now?"

"My phone is out of battery now."

"Then do you want me to lend you a power bank?"

Lin Li's voice suddenly became much clearer, along with a slight pulling sensation from her hair. Chen Yuying realized that Lin Li was now facing her, playing with her hair, just like during their usual lunch breaks.

So she pulled her ponytail to her front, didn't respond about the power bank, and said softly: "I just washed my hair today, don't grab it."

"Class Rep? Are you disgusted that my hands are dirty?!" Lin Li's voice carried an obvious smile.

"Otherwise? You just finished running." Perhaps feeling that it wasn't good to keep her back to someone, Chen Yuying finally sat up straight again, glanced at Lin Li, the emotions in her eyes as complex as an overturned palette.

"Then it seems I have to go wash my hands first. Just right, I also kind of want to go to the toilet, so I'll go to the toilet." Lin Li nodded, stood up, and stretched.

"Mhm." Chen Yuying nodded. Taking out her fully charged phone, she was going to delete all her cute stickers.

I hate cute stickers.

"Okay, then I'm off. I hope this time on the way, some girls will ask for my WeChat. Sigh, what does it mean that only guys ask for my WeChat? I haven't even started working out yet, how did I start attracting the same sex? I hope the referee and that sports student from Class 14 added me to introduce girls to me.

"So annoying, sigh!!"

Lin Li sighed super loudly, so loud it seemed to penetrate the entire field, for fear that some people wouldn't hear it.

Then he hugged the back of his head and slowly walked towards the toilet.

Chen Yuying's hand movements paused.

She blinked, turned off her phone screen, and saw her unhappy self.

At least she was unhappy just now, but now, the corners of her mouth were turning up disappointingly.

Not allowed to turn up.

But the corners of her mouth didn't listen to her, so finally her expression turned into an embarrassed shyness.

She looked up at Lin Li's fading back. He was kicking the turf by the road with the tip of his shoe, as leisurely as if he were taking a walk.

Chen Yuying clicked on Lin Li's chat list.

Chen Yuying started sending all her un-cute stickers to Lin Li one by one.

I won't give you any cute ones, hmph.

Seeming to feel that her anger wasn't fully vented, Chen Yuying's friend list lost a "Lin Li" and gained a "Lin Li (Annoying Version)".

After doing this, Chen Yuying put her phone on the table and supported her cheeks with both hands.

"Oh my~"

...

"Lin Li, what are you doing?" Bai Bufan and Wang Ze, who had just come out of the toilet, saw Lin Li walking over and asked in confusion.

Lin Li was stunned upon hearing this, pointing at the toilet behind the two: "No, bros, I came here not to go to the toilet, could it be to get lunch for you two?"

"I mean, going to the toilet is going to the toilet, why are you smiling so happily?" Bai Bufan's curiosity lay here.

"Indeed, you're smiling like a retard." Wang Ze also nodded in agreement.

"I can't even smile? Is it any of your business?" Lin Li gave the two a middle finger and walked into the toilet cursing: "Typical toxic male thinking. Forget it, I'm in a good mood, too lazy to argue with you two..."

Bai Bufan and Wang Ze, who were inexplicably scolded: "?"

"Is he sick?" The two spoke in unison.
