I Really Didn’t Want to Increase My Favorability!

Chapter 145

“How do you feel? Are you tired? Wait a while, and I’ll set up the stabilizer, then I can shoot on my own.”

Xu Lin looked at Ji Yun, who had been standing there holding his phone for an hour, and felt she might be a little tired.

“No, but is it okay for you to chat with me like this?”

“No problem, I will edit it when the time comes. Whether it is a short video, a movie, or a TV series you watch, it all needs editing and post-processing.”

“Xu Lin, can you still edit? That’s impressive.”

“Uh… I’m not that skilled at editing, but I know a professional content creator. If I don’t understand anything, I can ask her for advice.”

Xu Lin thought of his book-loving friend and initially planned to ask for her opinion on his first shoot. However, he decided against bothering her, thinking she might be busy during the day.

“That’s good. Just make sure your content creation don’t delay your studies.”

“Don’t worry, I can manage.”

“Xu Lin, that senior sister Bai Xiaoxiao called me.”

“She called you? What’s the matter?”

When he left her house, he deliberately asked her many times if there was anything he could help with, and she kept saying there was nothing. So why did she call Ji Yun again?

“Well, let me explain. She feels like she doesn’t know what to do.”

“What does she not know what to do about?” Xu Lin said while heating the oil, a bit confused. What’s going on in Bai Xiaoxiao’s mind again?

“She told me about next year’s college entrance examination. Although she didn’t directly say it, the implication is to keep a distance from you.”

“But she’s also afraid of completely giving up. Perhaps in the future, you two will become strangers, after all, she hasn’t confessed to you yet.”

“Oh.”

Xu Lin nodded. Senior Sister Bai was the kind of person to have such thoughts – fragile, introverted. It took a lot of courage for her to say these things to Ji Yun, didn’t it?

“Is this your only reaction?”

Ji Yun heard Xu Lin’s ‘oh’ and couldn’t help but call out in a somewhat displeased tone.

“Then how should I react?”

“Wouldn’t you want to chat with her a bit?”

“It’s up to her to decide about this thing. Besides, I’m not her boyfriend. I don’t have the right or the status to chat with her.”

“But doesn’t she like you? Don’t you know that too?”

“I do know, but she hasn’t said it herself; you’re the one who told me. Perhaps men want to have it all, but she also has her own choices.”

“I can’t force every girl next to me into my arms. You don’t need to be angry with me. I’ll feel uncomfortable with it myself.”

“Not right, Monitor Ji, what do you mean by this? Weren’t you supposed to collaborate with the big star Chu, to eliminate other competitors? What you’re doing now is actually aiding the enemy.”

Hearing Xu Lin’s words, Ji Yun also pondered for a moment, realizing that it might indeed be the case.

She was sympathizing with her opponent, but Senior Sister Bai is such a good girl. She’s caught in a state of confusion, and she couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.

Senior Sister Bai is considering quite realistic issues. When it comes to going to college, the distance between two people becomes significant. It might be better to end any thoughts early and focus on striving forward.

Of course, the main thing is, she doesn’t know what Xu Lin’s thoughts are. She also doesn’t know if this guy isn’t just playing it cool with her, right?

Ji Yun felt a wave of vigilance, even though Xu Lin didn’t look at her, concentrating on making cola pancakes. She could still sense the gaze from the side.

For the safety of the harem, one cannot appear overly eager towards other girls, and indeed, Xu Lin doesn’t want to influence their lives.

Especially with Bai Xiaoxiao, if he were to express his affection for her, saying ‘Stop studying, marry me,’ it might create significant uncertainty for her.

However, he also doesn’t want to completely sever ties with her, but picking up where they left off isn’t easy, leaving him unsure of what to do.

Just finished frying the Cola Pancake(Okonomiyaki) like this, Xu Lin also took the phone, saved the video just taken, and then took a nice picture.

“This one can be used as the cover. I didn’t expect the phone’s picture quality to be so good. Fortunately, everyone is still watching in 720p and 1080p now. Otherwise it won’t be easy to use in the future.”

He was about to take the phone and go back to the room to transfer it to the computer, then edit it and try to post it tonight, but Ji Yun called out to him.

“Xu Lin, can I talk to Senior Sister Bai?”

“Of course, if I talk to her, I’m afraid it will affect her judgment. I don’t have many merits, but being able to see what I want to do counts as one. But she doesn’t quite understand this.”

“Mm.” Ji Yun nodded as she picked up a cola pancake.

“Better than what I and sister Chu Fengyi made.”

“Take it to my bedroom to eat. You didn’t have lunch, right?”

“Yeah, we were busy buying clothes.”

“Let’s go.”

“I think I understand how you feel now,” Ji Yun followed behind him with a plate in hand and as if she had a new realization.

“What feeling?”

“It’s like being liked by too many people, it’s actually a kind of pressure. Because you can’t promise everyone.”

“Well, so with you all, I’m very happy. Don’t doubt that I’m secretly seeing other girls.”

Actually, that’s not it. He was just thinking, with 12 sisters buying clothes for him, he could have new clothes to wear all year round.

But when he reached the bedroom door, Xu Lin pushed the handle and found it wouldn’t budge; it was locked from the inside?

“Chu Fengyi?”

He knocked on the door, and after a moment of clattering sounds from inside, the door finally opened.

“How do you like the cola pancakes I made?”

“It’s okay. I’ll go to the bathroom first,” Chu Fengyi said.

Xu Lin nodded, and Ji Yun also placed the plates by the computer.

But as soon as he sat down, he felt something was off, and then he saw the magazine, instantly his pupils dilated!

Oh no, I hope Chu Fengyi hasn’t been messing around with my stuff again. But with her memories from past lives, this shouldn’t bother her, right?

Xu Lin opened the magazine and found the CD inside hadn’t been moved, still in the same place.

It seems nothing has been touched. So why did she lock herself in the room?

So he quickly opened his laptop beside him, before even searching much, he found a clue, his download software was still running.

Then he opened his study folder, and then opened the math folder, inside which there was a folder named “Olympiad Math 123”.

Inside it, there were two folders, one named “Olympiad Math 1” and the other named “Olympiad Math 3”.

He opened “Olympiad Math 3”, where there were two WPS files, and the second one was the excellent wheat variety he had cherished for several years.

Chu Fengyi, you truly have your ways; even placed here, you can find it. You’re really impressive, worthy of being Chu Qingchan’s biological sister; both of you know how to find movies to relax.

“Ji Yun, you keep eating, I’ll go wash my hands.”

“Okay.”

As he approached the bathroom, he saw Chu Feng rubbing her hands. Xu Lin also sneaked up behind her.

“Be careful, I might hit you with an elbow strike.”

“I wasn’t trying to ambush you. Why were you rummaging through my files?”

“Cough, I’m just concerned about your health. I was just checking if your mental health is okay.” Chu Fengyi didn’t deny it either.

“Which one looks better?”

“I haven’t watched many yet, but I can download a few today to take back and use as teaching materials for Ji Yun.”

“Don’t teach her anything improper.”

“You can rest assured.”

“For you, I don’t have the slightest bit of trust!”

The two of them teased each other as they returned to the bedroom. They saw Ji Yun pick up a CD and put it into the computer.

Then Xu Lin hurriedly ran up and stopped her!

“Stop.”

“What’s wrong?”

“Uh… the optical drive is broken, it will burn out the disc.”

“Is that so? Sorry, luckily I didn’t put it down.”

“Phew…”

It would have been a disaster if you had put it down, in many ways. It’s better to let your two older sisters show you the new world.
