The Most Random System

Classroom.

It's quite rare, Bai Bufan surprisingly didn't tell any historical anecdotes today.

"The names of Liu Bei's descendants, Liu Feng and Liu Chan, combined mean 'Feng Chan,' an expectation of imperial greatness. The names of Sun Jian's descendants, Sun Quan and Sun Ce, together mean 'Quan Ce,' a blessing for capability.

Alright, next, let's look at the old Cao family.

What are their names? Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Zhen, Cao Shuang.

Not talking about Sima, only discussing Shu, Wei, and Wu, yet the Cao family was the ultimate winner, so can you see it? What emperor's ambition, what strategic capabilities, all useless! Tell me loudly! What truly is the ladder to victory!"

"To win, you only need to do three things! Emperor Wen of Wei! Cao Ziheng! Cao Pi!"

The history is correct; the interpretation is wild.

After distributing breakfast to everyone, Lin Li gave Bai Bufan a belated thank you:

"Bufan, that movie yesterday was really good."

"Bai's Strict Selection, what did you think? If it's not good stuff, it wouldn't stay on my phone, my memory is precious strategic material.

I still have a lot of good stuff stored, have you watched all of Sister Feng's things? Although they're a bit old, classics never go out of style, and the quality after restoration exceeds even new films."

Bai Bufan was unfazed by such praise and replied calmly.

"Send them all to me, please, it's really important to me." Lin Li said earnestly.

"I'll send you my cloud account password later; sharing is troublesome, and links can easily become invalid.

Fortunately, my account still has membership, and I've already organized and reviewed the files; they're not a mess.

However, to avoid the files being harmonized, most of them are compressed archives; the extraction passwords differ based on the source, usually noted in the folder, you'll have to check them yourself."

In the early days when one cloud storage dominated, a single line could break your defenses:

—! You're too late, the shared file has been canceled.

Every time you found a link only to discover it was from years ago, it was a nerve-wracking gamble.

"You're my true brother, alright, since you don't normally use these resources in the dorm, why not leave them with me, someone who needs them more? Just let me know when you need them on the weekend," Lin Li nodded, very appreciative of Bai Bufan's understanding.

"No need, no need to return them to me even on the weekend, I don't need these things anymore. Starting today, I'm officially beginning to quit lusting! I've decided to bring my genius to the NoFap community." Bai Bufan declared resolutely, "I've already uninstalled forbidden comics and Pica from my phone! With my firm resolve, I don't even know how to lose!"

"Hmm," Lin Li nodded.

"..."

"..."

"Hey, the reaction is too dull! Lin Li, I feel like you don't respect me! Why do you only respond with a 'hmm' to such an important decision!" After a brief silence, Bai Bufan snapped a bit.

"Wow, Bufan Bufan, you're really great, Bufan Bufan, you're the best," Lin Li praised upon hearing, but with a monotone voice.

Lin Li had heard this line too many times.

Bai Bufan's famous saying is that he abstains from lust for 23 hours a day. Assuming he lives to the average lifespan of 75, he has a full 72 years abstaining.

This stat sheet only suggests that if Bai Bufan takes his talent to the NoFap community, he truly is a secondary GOAT there.

"You will regret today's words and actions," Bai Bufan looked coldly at his deskmate, who looked down on him.

"Haha."

A few minutes later.

"Lin Li."

After finishing breakfast, Chen Yu Ying came over, throwing her trash in the hallway bin, and called Lin Li's name.

In fact, the classroom's trash can was originally in the back row, but after last semester, it was moved to the hallway by Xue Jian as it was deteriorating into a basketball hoop for Lin Li and others.

—At least this way, during class, they won't see these little brats using tissues or other things as basketballs.

"What's up, class president?"

"I wanted to talk to you about the autumn outing. Zhuo Yongfei and I discussed it and decided to have discussions based on dormitories first, and the dorm leaders will tell me or him, so we can gather a few large options, and in the class meeting, we'll choose the one the class can best accept.

And because you're the only day student in the class, without a dorm, I needed to tell you separately."

Zhuo Yongfei is the vice class president of class one, grade 10, a male student.

"Oh, I see. I'm very laid-back about it, anything goes," Lin Li nodded upon hearing this, then looked at Bai Bufan, "Bufan, did your dorm discuss last night? You can count my vote with your dorm, too. There are five in the Big Four, three in the Big Three of mystery novels are four, so it's normal for a six-person dorm to have seven votes."

"That works, but Bai Bufan, I'm curious, did you guys come to a conclusion?" Chen Yu Ying nodded and asked Bai Bufan.

With his head down, tightly staring at the unopened textbook on his desk, Bai Bufan, upon hearing his name, became even more stiff.

He mechanically turned around, facing Chen Yu Ying, but without looking at her, stammering, "We, uh, haven't discussed it well yet, maybe tomorrow night it will be decided."

Lin Li was momentarily stunned, then understood, Bai Bufan was an extreme in front of males and females, especially in front of the class's fashion queen, Chen Yu Ying.

It really shouldn't be like this.

Mainly because he once spread a rumor about Bai Bufan having hemorrhoids in front of the class president, which dealt another heavy blow to his already fragile spirit; Lin Li noticed Bai Bufan's hands were tightly pressed against his thighs, without any extra movement.

Lin Li stood up because when your mind thinks of hemorrhoids, it's time to clench.

Not only did he stand up.

When Lin Li and Chen Tianming, who was also standing in the back row near the door, exchanged glances, everything was unspoken, and they both laughed.

So you also play the original—no, do you also clench?

Unbeknownst to him, Bai Bufan had become the 'clenching assistant' of class one, grade 10; seeing him reminded you to clench.

At this moment, Bai Bufan's mind seemed to have stopped, stumbling over his words very awkwardly.

This left Chen Yu Ying a bit at a loss temporarily.

Master Lin couldn't stand seeing his good friend suffer such earthly hardships.

So Lin Li closed his eyes.

"Hahaha—cough cough." Lin Li opened his eyes because he accidentally laughed out loud.

Because he suddenly stood there laughing, Chen Yu Ying and Bai Bufan both looked over.

Chen Yu Ying was puzzled, while Bai Bufan was filled with resentment and a plea for help—whoever you are, quickly get her away!

"Class president, Bufan has a bit of social anxiety around girls, especially pretty ones. Let him report to Yongfei later." Lin Li decided to lend a hand.

"Oh oh, sorry." Upon hearing this, Chen Yu Ying immediately stepped back, making Bai Bufan feel more at ease, and then she was a bit surprised: "But it's hard to imagine Bai Tongxue being like this."

After all, Bai Bufan was rather loud, and his gossip could be heard by the entire class. In the eyes of those unfamiliar with him, he shouldn't have any connection with social anxiety, and seemed more like a social intimidator, being the cause of others' social anxiety.

"The key is still good-looking." Lin Li raised an eyebrow.

At this age, girls find it hard to be poised in the face of compliments, and with such straightforward praise, Chen Yu Ying was a bit shy and did not respond.

Bai Bufan looked at Lin Li even more resentfully.

Are you seriously using me as a buffer between you and the class president?

Am I becoming Luffy?

—According to rumors, when Kaido and Big Mom didn't want children, they used Luffy as an excuse.

"Actually, there's another reason, class president. Last time when I said Bufan had hemorrhoids, it was fake. I was joking." Lin Li added.

This time, Bai Bufan finally gave a grateful look—Lin Li had neither a strange tone nor did he wink. This was a genuine clarification, bringing him to the verge of tears.

Chen Yu Ying was stunned upon hearing this, first looking at Bai Bufan and then at Lin Li: "Did you... tell me about this?"

The still grateful Bai Bufan suddenly became stiff again.

Huh?

Bai Bufan looked at Lin Li, bewildered.

Lin Li innocently spread his hands, tilted his head, shrugged his shoulders, and said directly: "I told you the class president wouldn't remember this. Look how nervous you are."

But now she remembers.

Realizing this, Bai Bufan found himself in the same situation as Zhou Baowei.

And it's all because of his own actions!

"Class president, I mentioned it briefly the day before yesterday at noon. It's better you didn't remember. There's no need to now, because it was my rumor, and it's false." Lin Li repeated.

Bai Bufan once again gave a grateful look.

"Oh, alright..." Chen Yu Ying weakly nodded, but her gaze was a bit odd.

She was about to leave but suddenly noticed something strange, so she somewhat confusedly asked Lin Li, "I wanted to ask earlier, why did you all suddenly stand up to do horse stance?"

"To clench the butt." Lin Li honestly answered.

"What subject's outline?"

"Uh, if you ask, it's the 'clench the butt' subject."

Chen Yu Ying: "?"

Realizing what was happening, Chen Yu Ying slapped her forehead and quickly left.

But Lin Li noticed she didn't sit down immediately at her spot.

The trend of clenching the butt finally reached the front row.

But Lin Li felt a little sad.

Even pretty girls have to clench their butts too.

"I really have to thank you this time, Lin Li. When you're not being unreliable, you're actually pretty dependable." Bai Bufan was genuinely moved this time.

"You're thanking me too early."

Bai Bufan: "?"

"I've lied to the class president too many times these days. I emphasize something isn't true, and she probably believes it even more, so theoretically, now she's not just remembered it, but is even more convinced. Did you see the look in her eyes back then? That's probably why." Lin Li explained with a smile.

He said he wasn't a pervert, and claimed he wasn't sick; Lin Li felt Chen Yu Ying didn't believe him at all, so this is a reasonable deduction.

"Haha, you said that to scare me, right?"

"..."

"Right?"

"..."

"Lin Li, quickly nod and say yes! Damn! Nod!" After great joy came great sorrow. Bai Bufan looked at Lin Li smiling and became desolate again.

"I want to change deskmates..." he said weakly in despair.

"I think Ding Sihan would be a great choice for your new deskmate, Bufan. Why not consider it?" Lin Li steadily suggested.

"Are you seriously taking my considerations into account!" Bai Bufan said through gritted teeth, "If I could beat you now, you'd be on your knees apologizing to me, Lin Li. Just wait, when I successfully suppress my desires and transcend, new grudges and old grievances—I'll settle them with you!"

"Bufan, being like this isn't good for you either. How will you date in the future? If you don't overcome your awkwardness and unease in front of girls, what, are you planning to find a man to spend your life with?" Lin Li advised.

"It seems that changing sexual orientation might be simpler than overcoming the fear of girls." Bai Bufan thought for a while and then replied, giving Lin Li a smile: "Lin Li, good luck with clenching. I'm looking forward to your future."

Lin Li: "..."

He silently pushed his chair as close to the wall as possible, trying to stay away from Bai Bufan.

Damn, I'm scared now.
