Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again Chapter 251 111: Winter Break Approaches, Heading Home Toget

As for now, it's just so-so.

But even if there are any plans, they are for next sester.

Because winter break is coming soon.

After having dinner at the deputy dean's house, I told Kang Baohong about the shop's matters during the winter break.

There's not much business during the holidays; the main concern is safety, as thefts are still quite common these days.

Even though the digital store didn't have much stock, those demo machines are quite valuable.

Because of this, Kang Baohong decided not to go ho this year and planned to keep watch himself.

Of course, he can't stay in the shop 24/7.

The deputy dean will definitely have the guards increase their patrols, but Su Zelin had Kang Baohong bring a few packs of cigarettes over to make others more proactive in their duties.

After making all the arrangents, Su Zelin leisurely left the deputy dean's house.

As soon as he left, Kang Yulian ran to the kitchen and pulled out a box of rice noodles from under the cabinet.

This was sothing Su Zelin bought when he ca over for dinner, which the deputy dean's wife found strange.

They were very familiar with each other, and this young boss usually ca over empty-handed. Occasionally, he'd bring so premium fruits, but today he brought a box of rice noodles, which was puzzling.

Now Kang Yulian had guessed the reason.

Upon opening the box, besides the rice noodles, there was also a thick envelope inside.

Needless to say, this was her bonus.

With only a few days left before winter break, this might be the last ti this sester they'd see the deputy dean and his wife, so the money couldn't be delayed until after the holidays.

Transferring money was definitely not an option, as it could easily leave traces.

Even though everyone knew this was a ga of power among the leaders, so precautions still had to be observed.

So Su Zelin took out the money while coming over for dinner.

The face of the deputy dean's wife almost blood into a flower with a smile.

She took the envelope to the study for a careful count, and indeed, there were over a hundred "Red Bulls" inside.

Hmm, how much should I give to Baohong?

...

On the way back to the dorm, Su Zelin's phone rang. It was Lu Haoran calling.

As soon as he pressed the answer button, the honest man on the other end asked, "Zelin, the Finance College is about to start the holiday, right?"

"Yeah, soon, the third of next month!"

Su Zelin casually replied.

"That's great, what a coincidence! Mine's on the second, just a day apart. Both you and Xiaoyanzi with Shiqing are on the third!"

Lu Haoran said excitedly.

"Ugh, what's so coincidental about that? Unless sothing unexpected happens, most colleges in Lin'an should be starting the break around this ti!"

Su Zelin didn't think much of it.

The winter break schedule for colleges within the sa province is generally similar. In Zhejiang Province, it usually starts around the tenth of the lunar month and ends after the Lantern Festival.

In the north, due to the climate, breaks usually start earlier, except for certain special institutions for which it's hard to say.

Zhejiang University, the Finance College, the Polytechnic University, and the Normal University aren't special institutions, and since they're all in Lin'an, the winter break schedules don't differ by much.

At this point, Su Zelin had guessed the purpose of Lu Haoran's call.

"No matter what, everyone's holiday schedule is more or less the sa. Zelin, let's go back together, it'll be nice to have company on the way!"

The honest man soon suggested.

While going back with just Xiaoyanzi during the start of the sester was quite nice, Lu Haoran still felt that going as a group of four buddies would be more fun.

As long as Su Zelin was there, it would definitely not be boring.

"Haoran, wouldn't it be better for you and Xiaoyanzi to enjoy a couple's world on the way? Why drag along?"

Su Zelin teased.

"Co on, Xiaoyanzi and I aren't a couple yet, and she will definitely arrange to go back with Shiqing."

Lu Haoran felt a bit embarrassed.

"Alright, then."

Su Zelin didn't think too long before making a decision.

As long as it wasn't just him and Qin Shiqing going ho together, going with buddies like Xiaoyanzi was fine.

"By the way, Zelin, should we get sleeper tickets or train tickets?" Lu Haoran asked again. "I heard it's hard to get train tickets during the Spring Festival travel rush; so people have to line up all night!"

"No to sleeper seats!"

Su Zelin didn't even think before rejecting the idea.

"Why not?"

The honest man didn't understand.

"Sleeper space is small, bumpy, uncomfortable, and also, it's inconvenient for girls to use the bathroom."

Su Zelin provided the reasons.

Besides the reasons ntioned, there's also another one: Qin Shiqing gets car sick.

Short trips are fine, but for long trips, childhood friends can feel sick for quite so ti.

"That makes sense."

Lu Haoran agreed and realized his buddy's thorough considerations.

He hesitated for a mont, "Zelin, how about this? I'll stand in line to buy tickets for the four of us."

"You can't buy that many on your own. The train station will definitely limit the amount one can buy; you can probably only buy your own! No need to trouble yourself, I have a solution. I'll handle all the tickets for us."

Su Zelin stated confidently.

"Zelin, what's your plan?"

Lu Haoran couldn't help but ask.

"Haha, you don't need to concern yourself with that. Let's just say I've got it all figured out!"

Su Zelin left it a mystery.

Seeing how secretive he was, the honest man didn't press further.

His buddy was clever and resourceful.

Things that troubled other people, he always had a way to sort out. Lu Haoran had gotten used to it by now.

Actually, Su Zelin's plan was quite simple—scalpers!

Although the practice of scalpers inflating and reselling train tickets is annoying, it also provides convenience for the wealthy travelers who want to avoid hassle.

People like Su Zelin, who have deep pockets.

The easy-going guy never takes the usual route when doing things.

Lining up all night was impossible for him.

If money could solve a problem, then it wasn't a real problem. He typically wouldn't use other ways.

If there were no scalpers, wanting to get ho early might really an lining up at the train station all night.

All things considered, the laid-back guy would rather pay scalpers a few dozen more per ticket.

In the past month, his almost empty account had recovered to six figures again; he wasn't short of cash.

Moreover, New Era was like a hen that laid golden eggs constantly; his money would only grow. This small amount wasn't a big deal.
