Chapter 37: Playing the Lute to a Cow is Not the Cow's Fault (Seeking Collection)

  Even under such harsh conditions, I agreed to accompany him, so the champion of doing good deeds without seeking reward will not fall.

  But less than seven o'clock the next morning, when Tao Huan knocked on his door with a loud bang, Li Xiaobai was still very depressed.

  I, at the age of seventeen, my greatest wish on weekends is to sleep until I wake up naturally. Even this small wish was destroyed, isn't it said that girls are the most sympathetic creatures? Where did her sympathy go?

  "Li Xiaobai, are you up?" A impatient voice came from outside the door.

  Look, look, no parents are present, and not even a brother is called, although he doesn't care either. But the most annoying thing is that there's no courtesy at all.

  As for when he's alone, he never calls his sister... Ah, now is the time to correct Tao Huan's problem, it's better not to divert the topic too far.

  He barely responded with a grunt, and then there was no more movement outside the door, apparently he had gone downstairs.

  Li Xiaobai came downstairs to the dinner table and Tao Huan was already seated in her place eating.

  Breakfast is fried eggs, bread and milk.

  At this time on weekends, parents who have worked for a week should not have gotten up yet, so the fried eggs must have been made by Tao Huan.

  It must be said that Tao Huan still has a bit of talent in cooking, at least the fried eggs are almost without black spots and emit an appetizing aroma.

  No, saying sorry to mom is a phrase that tastes even better than the food mom makes. After all, in cooking, mom has lost her freshness. Little girls are different, they always have double curiosity for new things, and naturally, they will also work twice as hard, so it's no surprise if they achieve something in a certain field.

  No wonder there was a time when no one was at home, and I tried my hand in the kitchen and almost got anorexia. It turned out that I had no interest in cooking. Since I have no interest, then from now on, I don't need to enter the kitchen anymore.

  It's crucial to repeat this point once more. It's not that they're not talented, but rather they have zero interest in culinary arts.

  "Hurry up and eat, it's already the agreed time, if we're late it won't be good." Tao Huan, who was sitting beside her, had put down her chopsticks and glanced over, urging her.

  "A day's plan is made in the morning. If I don't eat enough in the morning, won't I be starving all day?" Li Xiaobai took a sip of milk and said, "If you think it's late, how about this? You go meet up with your classmate first, then you two can wait for me together. After all, it was you and your classmate who made the appointment, I didn't participate, so when the time comes, you two waiting together won't be late."

  "You... you..." Tao Huan glared at Li Xiaobai, then huffed and fell silent.

  You handed her a way to solve and compromise, the little girl didn't appreciate it, but instead got angry for no reason, aren't you one of the seven deadly sins, the sin of anger?

  The sin of anger can't be provoked, the weather in November is not cold yet, but when eating, Tao Huan always glared at him fiercely, helpless, Li Xiaobai randomly ate a few mouthfuls and gave up.

  Today, Tao Huan is wearing a short skirt with a bow tie, still walking in a cute style. It should be the cute style, because usually parents always say that Tao Huan is cute and whatnot, even though he can't see it at all.

  The agreed meeting place was a bus stop, which could go straight to the southern district. From the terminal station, it's not far from the destination of the underwater world, this is the route that Li Xiaobai found on the computer.

  Even if it's against his will, Li Xiaobai would still do a good job with the tasks entrusted to him by others, such as delivering love letters for Chen Huan or taking his cousin out. When it comes to enduring hardships and difficulties, he is simply one of the best.

  It's just that this is a strange ability, and it always feels like it doesn't sound very good.

  "Where is your classmate?"

  "Who knows, she said it was an 8 o'clock gathering......" Tao Huan also had a worried look on her face.

  "Why don't we call and ask her?" Li Xiaobai suggested, "There are many animals here, but sea creatures can't be seen either."

  Watching people coming and going, Li Xiaobai felt a little dizzy.

  "But won't it seem like I'm being too impatient?" Tao Huan finally looked up at Li Xiaobai with some hesitation.

  Everything you've shown indicates that you're in a hurry, Li Xiaobai was almost speechless. If the other party doesn't come, are you going to wait until the earth is old and the sky is worn out?

  "Bring me the phone, I'll make the call."

  Tao Huan had just handed over his mobile phone when it suddenly rang. It wasn't that he had pressed anything, but rather someone was calling Tao Huan.

  "I'm sorry......I'm sorry......"

  Tao Yuan hastily grabbed it and connected, apologizing repeatedly.

  "Ah, you're not coming?" Tao Huan asked.

  "Yes, I just found out today that my former classmate's birthday is the same as mine, she was from Class 5, and she even came to our class before, you should have seen her too."

  "Okay, it's fine here, anyway I still have brother accompanying me, just the two of us going is enough."

  Although she said so and hung up the phone, the little girl still felt a bit desolate.

  Li Xiaobai thought the lonely girl was quite lovely, only at this time would she not bare her teeth and claws to hurt people. Unfortunately, this could not be told to Tao Huan, otherwise her tiger-like teeth would have something to bite again.

  "Isn't it disappointing?" Seeing Tao Huan nod, Li Xiaobai said, "Then you can also disappoint her once. Your classmate didn't keep the appointment, and you didn't keep your promise either."

  "What does it mean?" Tao Yuan asked in confusion.

  "It means we're going back the same way," Li Xiaobai said matter-of-factly. "I think that when you get to school, your classmates will be eager to see those photos you took. If they don't get to see them, they'll probably be very disappointed."

  As soon as he finished speaking, Tao Huan looked at him with a disdainful gaze.

  "What's wrong?"

  "You must have no friends at school." Tao Yuan said with certainty.

  I've never told anyone about what happened at school before, so how did little girl find out?

  "Friends need mutual understanding, but you only think about equality, how can you make friends like that?"

  It's actually trending to teach older brothers a lesson, how can this be?

  "What you call mutual understanding isn't also a kind of equality, is it? This time, because of some reason, the other party was late, and you understood her. Next time, she should understand your occasional failure to meet up out of guilt. Otherwise, if only you understand others and they don't understand you, can your friendship be sustained? The equality I'm talking about is timely reciprocity; although there may be some differences in timing, it's like the two sides of a coin - the more times it happens, the closer it gets to equality between both parties. Is there an essential difference between the two?"

  "What are you talking about, I don't understand..."

  Li Xiaobai almost vomited blood on the spot.

  Forget it, playing a lute to a cow is not the cow's fault, but mine. My cousin's IQ is too low, she can't understand even if she hears it.
