Chapter 388: Chapter 279 Miraculous Revival_2
Cui Yu reminded, "The dumplings are out, but there’s still chili oil on the clothes."
Wang Longlong paused, "No way, oil is tough to get out of clothes. Let’s wait until things cool down a bit and we’ll come clean to her, and if we really have to compensate, we’ll just pay."
Cui Yu didn’t want to lose money. His weekly allowance wasn’t much, and there were better things to spend it on than throwing it away.
Cui Yu racked his brain suddenly had an idea:
"I have a way!"
Wang Longlong asked, "What way?"
If he didn’t have to compensate, he didn’t want to.
Cui Yu said, "The hat has chili oil on it, but oil stains can be washed off. If we secretly wash it off, doesn’t that mean we don’t have to mention it?"
Wang Longlong spread his hands, "How do we wash? We don’t have the tools, and the clothes are still on her."
Cui Yu conceded, "True."
It’s a genius idea, but impossible to execute!
Ma Shicheng marveled at his wild idea and provided information:
"I know who has dish detergent, if you really want to try, you can ask him."
Cui Yu, "Who?"
"Huang Yuzhu."
Upon hearing the name, Cui Yu immediately recognized it. Huang Yuzhu was famously self-reliant in their class.
Huang Yuzhu seemed to have everything; he remembered once, when Gao Heshuai had asked the class to order test papers, everyone was looking for a stapler, but Huang Yuzhu just pulled one out.
Not just staplers, but tape measures, duct tape, and pliers, Huang Yuzhu had it all.
Cui Yu hurried to the front row to find Huang Yuzhu.
Soon, he was holding a bottle of dish detergent.
Cui Yu, looking at Ma Shicheng’s water cup, joyfully said,
"Perfect timing!"
After speaking, he turned to Dan Xiao, negotiating, "Brother Xiao, mind giving a hand?"
"You can count on me, I won’t let you down. Whether it works or not, I’ll buy you a Coke at lunch."
Dan Xiao agreed immediately, being the good-hearted guy he was.
"Alright, Brother Xiao, give me your hand."
Cui Yu held the dish detergent bottle and poured a bit onto Dan Xiao’s hand.
Cui Yu then said, "Brother Ma, can I borrow your cup?"
Then, Cui Yu poured some water onto Dan Xiao’s hand, and Dan Xiao rubbed his hands together, creating a lot of foam.
"This foam works great, it removes the oil." Cui Yu praised, "Back when I used to wash dishes at home, it came right off."
"Brother Xiao, do you know how to wash clothes?" Cui Yu inquired about the most crucial part of his plan.
Dan Xiao affirmed, "Absolutely."
Cui Yu earnestly asked, "Brother Xiao, could you scrub the oil off Lu Qiqi’s hat?"
Dan Xiao’s honest face took on a serious expression.
Washing oil off the hat without Lu Qiqi noticing was quite the challenge!
However, Dan Xiao was never one to shy away from danger.
In his past illustrious endeavors, this was but a minor ripple.
Dan Xiao twirled the foam on his fingertip and said, "It might make a bit of noise."
Cui Yu waved his hand, "Hold on!"
"Longlong, Brother Ma, we’ll cover for him."
Then the three of them cleared their seats, letting Dan Xiao sit in Wang Longlong’s spot.
Cui Yu bent over to assist Dan Xiao, while Ma Shicheng and Wang Longlong stood on either side to prevent others from peeking.
From the front row, Lu Qiqi asked, "Wenwen, what do you think about this dress for the performance?"
Yu Wen replied, "It’s nice, I was thinking about performing, but I don’t really have any special talents, sigh."
The two chatted intensely, and behind them, Dan Xiao stretched out his foam-covered hand, stealthily reaching into Lu Qiqi’s cap.
He moved his hands gently, tenderly massaging the fabric stained with chili oil.
His movements were incredibly delicate and meticulous.
After rubbing for about twenty to thirty seconds, Dan Xiao withdrew his hand, Cui Yu peered from the table, observing:
"The result looks decent, let’s keep going."
He poured more dish detergent into Dan Xiao’s hand and added water to create more foam.
Lu Qiqi mentioned, "I heard Bai Yuxia signed up for the dance, did Shen Qing’e sign up too?"
Yu Wen shook her head, "Qing’e didn’t."
"It looks like, for now, Bai Yuxia is the only girl from our class confirmed for a performance," Lu Qiqi said, although she hung out with Shen Qing’e, when it came to dancing, Bai Yuxia was undoubtedly beautiful.
Yu Wen revealed, "Not necessarily, I heard Pang Jiao and her group signed up for a performance."
Lu Qiqi exclaimed, "What?"
Hearing this from behind, Cui Yu was taken aback and was so shocked that he even forgot that Dan Xiao was still at work, blurted out instinctively,
"What performance?!"
After the words slipped out, he thought it was bad news while Dan Xiao was still washing Lu Qiqi’s hat!
Lu Qiqi turned around in that instant, and Dan Xiao, with the speed of lightning, swiftly withdrew his hands.
Unnoticed by Lu Qiqi, Yu Wen continued,
"I heard Pang Jiao and her group signed up for a dance."
Hearing about dancing and then thinking of Pang Jiao and the others’ "graceful" figures, Cui Yu’s mind was filled with various images.
He suppressed his curiosity and pretended to be uninterested,
"I see."
Seeing his disinterest in talking, Lu Qiqi looked curiously at Wang Longlong and Ma Shicheng, who were standing on the edge of the table, standing straight up.
She inquired, "What are you guys doing?"
Wang Longlong replied, "Breathing fresh air."
Lu Qiqi thought the two were odd but didn’t delve deeper, turning back to chat with Yu Wen.
"Keep going, keep going!" Cui Yu urged, as class was about to start.
Dan Xiao was quite professional, knowing the urgency of time, he didn’t blame Cui Yu for the previous scare, prioritizing the situation.
Dan Xiao handled the foam, washing the hat, finally managing to lighten the chili oil stain.
With care, Cui Yu poured water into Dan Xiao’s palm, saying, "Give it one more rinse."
"To ensure there’s no residue."
Dan Xiao busied himself and ultimately met everyone’s expectations.
Cui Yu and Wang Longlong breathed a sigh of relief together.
He held the detergent bottle, "Dan Xiao, I owe you big time."
Wang Longlong was even more generous, "Dan Xiao, I’ll treat you to a meat patty for lunch, the premium version!"
Seeing his declaration, Cui Yu followed up, "I’ll treat you to fruit tea, one cup of fruit tea, and one cup of milk custard!"
