Chapter 200: Bai Yi Ling’s online store and Become best friend with Su Long

May ended just like that. If there is anything that Bai Yi Yang is busy with, then it must be teaching Bai Yi Ling how to operate her online store. Bai Yi Ling has officially start selling her succulents online. It wasn't an easy job since they are just starting.

The two sisters went to the post office in town to ask about the procedures, type of boxes and so on. Sending plants is a bit complicated so Bai Yi Ling can only open order to places that can be reached in 2-3 days times, if not, the plants may not be able to survive. Bai Yi Yang take not of the different sizes of the package, different weight and the price list for each of it. Bai Yi Yang also take not of the pricing for each destination.

Bai Yi Yang help buy a lot of necessary stuff for making this things possible, from boxes, Bai Yi Ling's brand label, tape and so on. Bai Yi Ling really wanted to do this so Bai Yi Yang will support her.

Other than that, Bai Yi Yang also teach Bai Yi Ling to keep track of the money flow. To start her business, Bai Yi Yang gave Bai Yi Ling 5,000 yuan. That would be enough for her to use until her business start showing result, the first few months may be slow but when people see that her service is good, they will continue to buy from her.

Bai Yi Yang didn't forget to tell Bai Yi Ling about this. She can't stop once she started this, unless the business really cannot go on anymore.

That's how Bai Yi Ling's online store started open on the 1st of June. Bai Yi Yang help her how to communicate with customer at first but when Bai Yi Ling learn how to do it, Bai Yi Yang let her be. Bai Yi Ling is just that good, she is so unlike her age.

The first day her business opened, Bai Yi Ling got more than 10 orders, that's from her social media fans, but mostly only buy 1 or 2 to show support. Bai Yi Ling never really show herself, occasionally Bai Yi Fang's adorable pictures with the plants is posted so when they texted her, they call her 'jie' which makes Bai Yi Yang laugh aloud.

"No matter how I look, this person is even older than me." Bai Yi Yang said when they check out the person profile picture.

"En, Miss J is a university student." Bai Yi Ling answer casually as she texted back.

This Miss J is a fan of her succulent plants who have asked her many times about her plants, she stay in the centre of City Nan and goes to university there. Since Miss J has DMs her so much, the two of them often communicate with each other, of course this Miss J doesn't know that Bai Yi Ling is a 10 years old kid.

"She never ask your age before?" Bai Yi Yang ask.

"Nope. She just ask about plants, what kind of climate do we have, temperature, sun exposure and so on." Bai Yi Ling said.

"Okay. Then I will leave you with your customer. Tell me if there are weird people texting you or anything." Bai Yi Yang said.

She don't mind Bai Yi Ling texting. Bai Yi Ling is a smart kid, no matter what she do, she must allocate 2 hours time to do her homework and study, she loves studying as much as she loves her plants. But, that doesn't mean she is not worried. When she started this, she may meet weird people too.

"En, I know." Bai Yi Ling nod and smile. She is not worried, most of the people she is texting now are succulents lover like her, they basically talk about succulents only.

Other than Bai Yi Ling online store launching, Bai Yi Yang also started the project with Sir Austin, they discussed it for a long time, no matter what, this project will be more difficult and more complicated than the one they send for high school competition, they wanted to make a good one so that they won't be wasting time.

Sir Austin is enthusiastic, the lab assistant Mr.Jung is also enthusiastic, so Bai Yi Yang also need to put more effort in it. Bai Yi Yang's Friday evening was spent on discussing their research, she only able to go back home together with the students who take evening study session.

"Yi Yang, you haven't go back yet?" Her classmates call her when they saw her waiting for bus in front of the school gate.

"En. Went to Chemistry Lab and discuss some stuff with Sir Austin." Bai Yi Yang said.

"Ah? Are you starting a project again?" Fang Xiu Ying said.

"Yeah. But its not a school project." Bai Yi Yang tell the truth. No need to hide it, the principal know it, so naturally teachers will know it eventually.

"How about the R&D team next year?" Fang Xiu Ying said.

"Ah, I have talked about that with Sir Austin, he said that it is possible to send 2 teams, so there are 8 empty slots because me and Senior Ruby will join again." Bai Yi Yang said.

This is one more important decision that she make, she will join the R&D team again next year. She thinks it's fine to do that, what more next year the host country will be Country A, she wanted to see that place where the technology is a bit more advanced than their country.

"Really?!" Not only Fang Xiu Ying, the other classmates is excited too. There are 8 spots so the possibility that they will join will be high. They immediately pay more attention and ask questions.

"What is the qualifications? Must we score high in Chemistry? Or other science subjects?" One boy ask, he is also in the top 10 in Class 1.

"No. We have discussed it carefully, the most important thing is interest, determination, willing to commit until the end and confidence. How to make a research can be taught, but not all these. It doesn't matter even if you don't aced Chemistry." Bai Yi Yang said.

This is indeed true, look at Ruby An, someone like her who doesn't really excel in study, but able to present the research because of her interest and determination. Ruby An didn't take a short time to understand the research and memorise it, their team has certainly put a lot of effort in it.

"That's so inspiring. Then, will try out too." Wang Qing said. She is one of their class top beauty, her ranking is just a little bit outside of top 10 but she is good in Chemistry, if she is determined enough, she may made it.

"Then, how will you choose who will be in your team? No matter what, I think yours and Senior Ruby team will be the best." Fang Xiu Ying said.

"That's not decided yet. After the members is picked, then we will decide it. But, this matter have to wait until next semester since they will prioritise the R&D club first." Bai Yi Yang said. This is also point that she emphasised, if someone is really interested, then it is only natural that they will chose to enter the R&D club, she will also changed club next semester.

"That is enough tips. I will make sure to prepare a lot and make it to the team." Fang Xiu Ying said. Bai Yi Yang laugh, Fang Xiu Ying is competitive, if there is nothing wrong, then she most probably will make it too. She chat with her classmates and saw Su Long standing alone amongst the bunch, they still contact each other but not as much as before when they are in the Olympiad team, and he didn't come to her seat as much as before, Bai Yi Yang only assume that Su Long wanted to focus on study more.

'Hey.' Bai Yi Yang send a text. Su Long seems to have seen it and look up to her. Bai Yi Yang immediately wave at him.

'En?' Su Long reply.

'You okay?' Bai Yi Yang ask.

'Yeah.' Su Long answer shortly.

'You have something in mind? You haven't ask questions for a while now.' Bai Yi Yang send. If before she won't even notice it, but she and Su Long has been close for some times, it's only natural that she notice his changes.

'Nope. But I want to study more to catch up with you.' Su Long said, making Bai Yi Yang wide eyed looking at him from distant. Indeed, Su Long has been quiet since the result announcement, then she went to the R&D competition and when she went back, she finally noticed it. No matter what, this teenage is still a child in the end.

"Should I let you have the 1st place next exam?" Bai Yi Yang stop texting and come to him. When she look at him, she noticed that he have become taller a bit, maybe she never pay attention to it before but Su Long is actually quite tall.

"Don't you dare." Su Long chuckled and push her head lightly with one finger.

"Then..What can I do to make you feel better?" Bai Yi Yang ask with a huge grin.

"Nothing. Do nothing. I am fine." Su Long said with a helpless sigh.

"Okay. But you don't have to feel down because of this. I may be smarter than you but in the future you will meet much more smart people, in the university or when you start working. If you wanted to meet more smart people in advance, then try auditioning for the R&D team, if you made it, I will bring you to my team." Bai Yi Yang said, this is her promise, she wanted to bring Su Long to fly. Su Long look at her for a long time until she feel irritated because he is not answering.

"Say something.." Bai Yi Yang frown.

"Can I..really be in your team?" Su Long ask. Her cheeks is especially red now, making Bai Yi Yang taken aback. She look at the weather and it is indeed a bit hot.

"En. I will teach you. Of course you need to make it through the selection first." Bai Yi Yang add.

"That..of course. Then I will try out to enter the R&D team. By then I should be able to catch up to you." Su Long smile brightly and his previous gloomy energy disappear, he exude a somehow youthful vibes now.

"Why do you look like this suddenly?" Bai Yi Yang is confused with his sudden change.

"Why, I can't smile?" Su Long softly laugh.

"You can, but it's a bit different then the previous you." Bai Yi Yang honestly said. He never act like this before. Is he finally going to act like those normal teenagers now?

"Which is better, now or before?" Su Long ask again.

"From a general population's point of view, now is better." Bai Yi Yang said.

"How about you? What do you think? Do you like it when I act like other at our age?" Su Long probe further.

"Wait?! What are you trying to do? I warn you, don't be like those cheesy boys who say nauseating flowery words to me? We can only be brothers this life. I will reject you if you say you like me." Bai Yi Yang narrow her eyes and look at Su Long, trying to read his meaning. This teenage boy didn't really interested in her like what Bai Yi Chen guessed right? She really is not interested in dating anyone okay.

Su Long froze at her words, he keep quiet for a long time before bursting out laughing. Even the people besides them look at them, making Bai Yi Yang embarrassed. This Su Long, if he don't like then can't he just say not interested instead of embarrassing her laughing like this?

"You shut up before I punch you on the stomach." Bai Yi Yang said threateningly in almost whispering voice.

"Yi Yang..what make you say that words confidently?" Su Long said with some residual laugh, he even lifted up his spectacles for a bit to wipe his tears because he laugh too much.

"Hey, don't look down on me. I am saying this because I got a few confessions okay." Bai Yi Yang puffed up in anger, she went to pinch Su Long arm. She is trying hard to filter boys who approach her now, if she caught some clues that they have feelings for her, she will cut it early on.

"Really? To you? A shorty?" Su Long burst into a laugh again.

"You..!!" Bai Yi Yang blush and look around if anyone heard them.

"Fine, fine. I won't say anything anymore." Su Long make an action to zip his mouth and pat Bai Yi Yang's head. When looking carefully now, Su Long is indeed quite a tall guy when standing next to Bai Yi Yang.

"I will really punch you if you dare call me a shorty again." Bai Yi Yang warn with a glare.

"Won't dare. Aren't we good brother now?" Su Long smile. Bai Yi Yang finally feel satisfied. Since she confirmed that Su Long doesn't have a thing for her, she became very comfortable, after chatting for a while, she is talking to Su Long like how she talk to Zhang Yong now.

They both go on their way when Bai Yi Yang's van arrived. In the van Bai Yi Yang finally check her phone, there are messages from Bai Yi Chen asking about her whereabouts now, then there is also one from Su Long telling her to be careful home.
