[Well look at that. That boy can stand up for something after all, even if it's just his right to be a complete sap about some foolishness. But Li Lianhua can work with this.]

You really need a better hobby, little fool. Listen, let's make a bet, alright? You've got until the end of today to find something that really makes you smile and has nothing to do with anyone else. If you win, I'll tell Fang Duobing that little profile of his made me smile. If I win, you have to pick those raspberries for me when they're ripe. The bushes are too thorny and low to the ground, I don't like doing it. Deal?

[Got him. On the other side of the screen, Li Lianhua smirks, even if Inigo asking for a definition of something he could not have phrased more straightforwardly if he tried makes him sigh. Inigo remains a troublesome friend boy.]

Ah, setting the terms, good idea. I mean it should be something you aren't doing with, for, or because of another person. No 'because it made you smile', no 'because you enjoyed doing this', no 'I'll give this away later'. If it was easy, it wouldn't be a good bet, would it?

Of course you can say no if you don't think you can do it.

[Indeed, Li Lianhua definitely didn't account for the fact that the only way to get Inigo to do something good for himself is by making it about someone else in the end. That sure is egg on his face.]

Good. I like a young man with confidence in himself. I look forward to your full report, then.

[Besides, this should keep the boy busy for a while.]
