Chapter 140: Hat Trial

"Cheng Ling, let me ask you something."

At the Heavenly Lotus Academy cafeteria, Ren Suo listlessly poked at his Hainanese Chicken Rice. His eyes were glued to his phone. He suddenly asked Dong Chengling, who was sitting across from him eating a large serving of teriyaki chicken cutlet rice, "What would you do if you couldn't finish your homework at night, and not finishing it would get you beaten by your dad?"

Dong Chengling mumbled unclearly, "I've never not finished my homework."

"What if Godzilla attacked your school and you had no time to do your homework?"

"My dad still wouldn't hit me."

"What if your dad was extra angry that night because he missed breakfast, lunch, and dinner?"

"Going hungry does make one prone to anger," Dong Chengling said after thinking seriously for a moment. "Then I'd stay up all night to finish my homework."

"What if you're already very tired and don't want to do it?" Ren Suo asked.
