Chapter 1002 - 263: National Day Arrives (Part 2)

After twelve o’clock, Xu Lin and Rong Xiyi went out.

"Xu Lin, are you going home for National Day?"

The day after tomorrow is National Day, so after tomorrow’s class, it will be a holiday, and Mid-Autumn Festival falls within the National Day period, so the entire holiday will last eight days.

"Yeah, going home to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival."

"Then let’s go home together!"

"Ok."

Actually, Ms. Ren had asked him before whether he would go home for National Day, but Xu Lin forgot to reply.

Her son is now in the spotlight, even more so than when he was using Mr. Xu’s vest. It’s as if a grand champion of the ancient imperial examination appeared in the family, only even more exaggerated, as there have been only 17 such champions throughout the thousand-year history of the examination system.

And Xu Lin, according to the internet, possesses the power to change history and is currently the smartest person on the planet, bar none.

Ms. Ren never dared to dream of such things; she even began to wonder if there was something special when Xu Lin was born, like thunderstorms, purple clouds from the east, or smoke rising from the ancestral grave.

As Mid-Autumn Festival approached, there were more shops selling mooncakes outside, looking quite festive.

In China, it seems that the festive spirit of shopping centers peaks around Mid-Autumn Festival and Chinese New Year.

"Xu Lin, let’s buy some mooncakes!"

Rong Xiyi saw a street full of mooncake sellers and suddenly got a whim.

Xu Lin hadn’t initially planned to prepare for Mid-Autumn Festival, but now seeing the mooncakes, he thought he should buy a few boxes.

"Xu Lin, why buy so many mooncakes?"

Seeing Xu Lin buying seven boxes of mooncakes alone, Rong Xiyi was quite puzzled.

"My senior may go home for Mid-Autumn Festival too; let her take some back."

"Does her family eat that much?"

"I have other people to gift them to, like my uncle."

"Your uncle, the eldest and second eldest uncles?"

"No, my uncle is Yu Xinyan’s father."

"Ah!"

Mentioning Yu Xinyan, Rong Xiyi naturally felt a bit uncomfortable. A couple of times, she saw Yu Xinyan coming to Finance University; it was obvious she wanted to find Xu Lin.

Rong Xiyi suspected Xu Lin and Yu Xinyan had something going on. It was her instinct, very strong.

But she chose to turn a blind eye to these matters.

Firstly, Xu Lin is strong and excellent now, and Rong Xiyi herself felt she couldn’t control him, so she decided to let things slide.

At twenty, Rong Xiyi matured a lot, distinguishing between primary and secondary contradictions and not making unreasonable trouble.

Moreover, she’s staying at Xu Lin’s house now, becoming a bona fide family member, so she couldn’t be bothered with those messy things. Anyway, if she felt wronged in the future, she could directly call the empress dowager of the Xu Family, Ms. Ren.

"Our two families are not just generally familiar, so we definitely have to send a box of mooncakes over for Mid-Autumn Festival."

Xu Lin bought seven boxes of mooncakes, each with its own allocation.

After spending half a day with Rong Xiyi, in the afternoon, after sending her home, Xu Lin drove to Chi Linyue’s home.

He brought two boxes of mooncakes up.

"Why bring mooncakes over here?"

"Isn’t Mid-Autumn Festival coming up? I brought you two boxes of mooncakes; by the way, one is for you to give to your brother’s family."

"Alright, I’ll take it over then."

Chi Linyue had just returned home not long ago.

"Spending the night at my place tonight?"

"Nah, I’ve got things to do. I’ll go home tomorrow; see you after National Day."

"Alright then."

Chi Linyue was a bit resentful, "Then you owe me an hour!"

"An hour for what?"

"What do you think?"

Chi Linyue playfully pouted, pulling Xu Lin’s belt over to the sofa.

In fact, Xu Lin stayed at her place for two hours, satisfying Chi Linyue, and then took a shower before leaving.

The next stop was Shang Wanjun’s house.

Although Shang Wanjun had to attend classes, she now had her own car and house, so as long as she needed to go to classes during the day, she would drive home at night.

This was her private space; she needed solitude, time to think, and peace and quiet for writing her novels.

Xu Lin arrived at nine in the evening.

"What’s this?"

"Preparing for Mid-Autumn Festival, brought you some mooncakes."

"But I don’t eat mooncakes."

"Take them home for uncle and aunt, it’s a simple thing?"

"True enough."

Xu Lin sat on the sofa, and Shang Wanjun made him some tea.

This time there was no complex tea ceremony, just warm water with some tea leaves.

Shang Wanjun asked him, "Staying over tonight?"

"I could."

"You have a woman’s scent on your clothes; have you showered?"

Shang Wanjun leaned in to sniff Xu Lin.

"Don’t worry, I’m all clean."

"That’s good. Even though I know you have many women and I’m one of them, when you sleep with me, you can’t come to me right after being with someone else; I have a bit of a cleanliness obsession."

Xu Lin said no problem.

Today Shang Wanjun is wearing a qipao, exuding the charm of a classical beauty.

For instance, as she sat there, her posture was graceful, and the qipao accentuated her perfect curves, especially the lines of her hips, which were most captivating.

Consequently, Xu Lin couldn’t resist reaching out to embrace her, then letting his hands explore.

"It’s still early!" Shang Wanjun said.

"Are you still busy with work tonight?"

"Hmm, maybe not so busy."

"Then let’s not be busy, a moment of spring is worth a thousand gold, quick and decisive, let’s rest early."

"Alright!"

Shang Wanjun also felt somewhat moved, probably because she had tasted the marrow and wanted more. Besides, Xu Lin’s skills were impressive, truly making her reminisce.

Before they knew it, it was past five in the morning.

The exhausted Shang Wanjun looked at the time, "You said quick and decisive, but it’s almost dawn."

"Then let’s sleep, you still have classes during the day."

Xu Lin yawned.

"I have class in the afternoon, it’s fine..."

Shang Wanjun murmured, and quickly fell asleep.

Xu Lin also drifted off to sleep.

However, he woke up earlier than Shang Wanjun.

Xu Lin left a little after eight.

He returned to school to attend class after nine.

After today’s class, there was a holiday, so Xu Lin brought mooncakes to the school, went to Ning Yuhuan’s class, and accompanied her to class.

"Going home today?"

"Yes, I’m flying back."

"Then take the mooncakes back, Suisui and the others will probably like them."

Ning Yuhuan had two boxes of mooncakes. For Suisui and the others who were young, mooncakes held quite a temptation.

For someone like Xu Lin, an adult, he might only eat half a mooncake a year.

"Then I’ll take them back."

Ning Yuhuan asked him: "Honey, are you staying here for class?"

"Yes, accompanying you for class, I will drive back to the provincial city tomorrow."

"Oh oh."

There were few classes in the fourth year, scattered, not many classes in a week, and this was also the last semester of classes, there would be no classes next semester.

After finishing class this morning, Ning Yuhuan had no more classes.

The holiday started right at noon.

Xu Lin had a meal with Ning Yuhuan at noon, then drove her to the airport.

Her flight was at two-thirty.

Every time Ning Yuhuan went home, as long as Xu Lin was in Jiangdu, he would drive her, and it was the same when she returned.

For someone of Xu Lin’s stature, this was quite rare.

In fact, his character had never changed, simply put, he didn’t lose himself because of his achievements.

"Goodbye, honey!"

"Mm."

Xu Lin nodded, and the two bid farewell.

After school in the afternoon, Xu Lin drove with Rong Xiyi to the Fenghua Shengshi Company downstairs.

A few minutes later, Xia Xiyao came out from the building.

Although she was a junior student, with her major in music, there weren’t that many classes.

Now, Xia Xiyao spent a considerable amount of time at the company.

Moreover, for most people, at least in this peaceful era, studying is just for better employment, better earnings, without many lofty ideals.

And for Xia Xiyao, going to school or not was no longer an issue.

With Xu Lin backing her, she could never do badly in this life.

Today, Xia Xiyao dressed very youthfully and energetically, wearing a loose pink short-sleeve that covered her hips, black denim super-short shorts, and a pair of short boots, also with a black baseball cap, looking cool and like those trendy girls who dance street dance.

She was a dance teacher at the company, there was no need to wear formal business attire.

Besides, what kind of professional clothes can you wear when dancing? You wear clothes that are convenient for dancing, so Xia Xiyao’s clothing was much more casual, whatever looked good.

"Xu Lin, Xiyan!"

"Yaoyao, are you going back tomorrow?" Rong Xiyi asked.

"Yes!"

"Then let’s go to your place, and take you home on the way, is that convenient?" Rong Xiyi said.

Rong Xiyi decided this on a whim today, wanting to visit Xia Xiyao’s home.

"You want to go to my place?"

"If it’s convenient, we’ll go, if not, never mind." Xu Lin spoke.

"Of course it’s convenient!"

"Then we’ll take you home tomorrow."

Xu Lin pointed to the two boxes of mooncakes in the back seat, "And there are two boxes of mooncakes for your family."

One box was bought by him and the other by Rong Xiyi.
