Chapter 462: – So that’s to say, I have no interest in basketball, yeah
Although it was said that Lin Chen wasn’t allowed into her room anymore, after lunch, Lin Chen still shamelessly entered Lin Jin's room.
At this time, Lin Jin had already changed into her everyday clothes, afraid that her little brother would take advantage of her again. Even if it was just being taken advantage of visually, she still felt really annoyed.
"Sister, do you want to go out with me this afternoon?" Lin Chen grinned as if nothing had happened earlier and shamelessly said to Lin Jin, "Sister, I'll introduce you to some friends this afternoon. They're all the kind that I hang out with every day."
"No need." Lin Jin didn't want to meet Lin Chen's friends, okay? Forcing people to get to know each other would be super awkward.
However, Lin Chen completely ignored Lin Jin's words and continued to shamelessly persuade: "Think about it, you're going to be staying here for at least a month, right? How can you not have any friends in a whole month, you can't just stay in the house every day being a salted fish, right?"
In such scorching hot weather, what was wrong with staying in an air conditioned room and being a lazy salted fish?
Lin Jin rolled her eyes at him: "Not going."
"Come on? I've already told them I'd introduce my sister to them." Lin Chen smiled and moved his face closer, but Lin Jin pushed his big face away in disgust.
"Like hell I'm going." After Lin Jin pushed his big face away, she directly laid down on the bed. She then stretched lazily, yawned, and completely reenacted the actions of a salted fish. "The air conditioning at home is so comfortable, why go out and suffer?"
Lin Chen looked dumbfounded. Was this still her brave and domineering older brother who used to take him out to play when they were kids? How did she become such a lazy salted fish after turning into a sister?
Lin Jin ignored Lin Chen and pulled the quilt up to her waist. She turned her back to him and closed her eyes as if she was really sleepy.
"Really not going?" Lin Chen felt his head ache seeing her acting like this. You must know that last night, his best friend was surprised to death after meeting his sister. Even late into the night, he was using his phone and sending texts, saying he wanted to get to know Lin Jin. With the idea of showing off his sister inside his heart, Lin Chen naturally agreed.
Then while Lin Chen was having lunch just earlier, that best friend was actually already urging him. Also, after hearing the news that his sister was really pretty, several other friends had gathered together at the milk tea shop outside the neighborhood waiting as well.
They were really causing trouble.
Lin Chen sighed. He guessed that after their basketball game this afternoon, he would be scolded by his friends like crazy.
"Oh right, you go downstairs and buy me an ice cream." Lin Jin, who had just been pretending to be going to sleep, suddenly sat up again and instructed her little brother, "Also get me an iced milk green tea on the way, add coconut jelly."
"Let’s go together?"
Lin Chen moved closer again, all smiles as he tried to entice Lin Jin: "Look, sister, you’ve only been here for a day and you're already this lazy. What will you do if I don’t have time?"
"Bah, you're the lazy one." Lin Jin rolled her eyes.
But speaking of which, although she said she didn't want to go meet new friends, Lin Jin as a person actually quite liked hanging out. Meeting some new friends was naturally not a problem. Her little brother’s look as if he was planning on showing off his sister just didn’t sit right with her.
She wasn’t an object, so being brought around and shown off always felt a bit weird.
After that, Lin Jin who had verbally complained, still followed Lin Chen downstairs.
They first went to a small convenience store to buy the ice cream. Lin Jin leisurely ate it with a spoon while following Lin Chen, planning to head towards the milk tea shop.
"Oh right, how many friends are there?" Lin Jin suddenly thought of something and said to Lin Chen, "If it's one or two, I can still handle it. If it's a whole group, then I'm heading back."
"I don't know either."
What do you mean you don't know?
Lin Jin rolled her eyes but didn't plan to press further. Anyway, when the time comes, if she sees too many people and chickens out, she could just leave, right?
Because she wanted to drink milk tea, Lin Jin followed Lin Chen out of the neighborhood community and came to the milk tea shop outside.
She peeked into the milk tea shop, originally thinking that Lin Chen's friends would be inside, but after looking, she found that besides the staff behind the counter, there wasn't a single customer.
Feeling relieved, she directly walked up to the counter and ordered a cup of milk green tea. Lin Chen was also a bit confused after he went in. His friends clearly said they would gather at the milk tea shop, but for some reason, they were all missing.
Taking out his phone to take a look, he saw that in the basketball group chat, those guys were constantly @ing him, saying that the basketball game started early or something. But since he was walking earlier, Lin Chen didn’t see the news in the group chat.
"The basketball game started." Lin Chen gave an awkward laugh and quickly said "They're currently urging me to hurry up. I'll head over to the basketball court first. If you want to come watch, you can."
"Mm." Lin Jin stood beside the counter waiting for her milk tea to be made.
Speaking of which, this basketball game was organized by a group of people from the neighboring communities. Anyway, it wasn't a serious competition, just for fun. They couldn't even get enough people for the teams. The players ranged from ten something year old middle school kids to uncles in their forties. They were all basketball fans from the nearby communities.
Lin Jin wasn't really interested in basketball games. She really couldn’t understand why people would go play basketball on such a hot day.
But after buying the milk tea, Lin Jin still slowly walked to the edge of the basketball courts. Looking inside, she found that even though the sun was blazing hot, there were as many as thirty or forty people playing basketball. The basketball court wasn't too big, but it seemed to be quite up to standards. At least the court looked pretty professional, yeah.
There were three courts in the basketball court area, one of which was occupied by Lin Chen's group, who were now enthusiastically splitting into teams.
Lin Jin didn’t expect so many people to be crazy enough to play basketball in such hot weather.
Lin Jin found a chair nearby to sit down at. This chair just so happened to be under a tree, so it could be considered as shade.
Crossing one left over the other, she happily sipped her milk tea. She then watched as Lin Chen and his friends split into two teams, seemingly about to start.
Lin Jin wasn't very interested in basketball, especially since her height was only 1.65m even after wearing height increasing shoes. With her small height among the generally tall basketball enthusiasts, she would basically just be throwing the game.
Sigh, so as expected, she wasn’t interested in basketball.
Watching that group of people, Lin Jin felt a bit tempted to join in. But as soon as she thought of her height, her heart would immediately calm down.
She figured she should just honestly be a melon eating spectator.
