Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again Chapter 344 - 141: Finally Meeting the Legendary Mysterious

A few days later, the sumr solstice arrived, bringing with it layered waves of heat, sweeping through the entire city like a storm, and midsumr descended.

The dazzling sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows on the ground. People cooling off under the trees looked up, only to see the treetops draped in strands of gold.

The occasional breeze that swept through the city also carried surprising heat.

People hurriedly running under the scorching sun complained, "It’s so hot, the sun is killing ," yet they were already looking forward to inviting a few friends to enjoy the coldest beer at a street stall in the evening and catch an exciting soccer match.

Midsumr is a season of youthful exuberance.

Youths chased the sumr light, sipping iced sodas, visiting hot beaches to see the waves and sunsets, their eyes filled with girls in pretty dresses, the breeze carrying the scent of grass and trees. Midsumr nights were particularly clear, and the moonlight was always romantic.

The fan overhead kept buzzing, always holding a large waterlon in their arms, listening to the constant chirping of cicadas and frogs.

These were the sumrs we spent together in those years, hot and bold.

Midsumr was like a passionate Gypsy woman, with no shyness of hiding behind a veil, unabashedly displaying its fiery charm.

Finance Institute, Dorm 302.

"I’m treating everyone to drinks tonight, co if you’re free!"

After class, Su Zelin announced this on the campus path.

Everyone was instantly excited.

It wasn’t so much about the al, but rather enjoying so chilled beer in this weather was too delightful.

They didn’t even realize it was Su Zelin’s birthday today, as he hadn’t ntioned it to anyone.

As one of the most generous and lavish people usually, Su Zelin, along with Zeng Kaiping, treated others the most, especially in the sumr, doing so every few days.

In addition to this, others would occasionally treat as well, including Hu Xu, who had the least ans. After all, it would feel awkward to always eat at others’ expense.

Because of this, everyone in room 302 was used to it, and no one connected it with Su Zelin’s birthday.

Upon reaching the bottom of the dormitory building, the phone rang, and it was a call from ho.

"Son, it’s your eighteenth birthday today, you haven’t forgotten, have you?"

As soon as the call connected, Zhao Lixia asked from the other end.

"Of course not, Mom."

Su Zelin told the others to go upstairs first, while he sat on a stone bench downstairs to chat with his family for a bit.

"Haha, that’s good. It’s quite a coincidence, actually. This year, the lunar sumr solstice is the sa as the year you were born! You were so naughty in my belly back then, never at peace, and you coincidentally ca into the world wailing on the sumr solstice. I even told your dad that this son might be a troublemaker, and it turned out to be true. You’ve never given us a mont’s peace!"

Su Lixia remarked emotionally.

"Mom, who said that!" Su Zelin retorted with a laugh, "I admit I didn’t give you peace when I was a kid, but now aren’t I quite trouble-free?"

Zhao Lixia thought to herself that it was true. Near adulthood, he suddenly beca more mature for so reason.

Not only did he earn money, but he also beca class president in university.

During the winter break, the school sent a transcript ho, and she was astonished by his high scores in all subjects, even full marks, as she was ntally prepared for him to potentially fail one or two courses. The surprise was a bit hard to get used to.

However, everything else had beco worry-free, but there was still one concern, perhaps the most important one.

Even though he and his future daughter-in-law hadn’t grown distant after going to different colleges, there didn’t seem to be much progress either.

From her observation during the winter break, their daily interactions seed unchanged.

The emperor wasn’t in a hurry, but the empress dowager was.

Although they were just first-year students, a girl like Qin Shiqing would be popular anywhere. Moreover, Zhejiang University was full of top students, likely with many from well-off families and good-looking too.

Although they couldn’t possibly be as handso as her son, they were still potential threats!

The sooner the rice gets cooked, the better.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lixia cleared her throat, "Son, how do you plan to spend this birthday?"

"I’ve arranged with my dorm mates to have a al together later, it’ll be lively and fun!"

Lively and fun, my foot!

Zhao Lixia almost fainted.

On such a special birthday, he didn’t seize the opportunity.

Why not go to Zhejiang University to find Qin Shiqing, carry a guitar, and serenade her with a love song, and maybe steal a kiss when she’s too moved to notice?

Son, you’re already eighteen today, no longer an ignorant little boy. You need to learn so special tricks to pursue the girl next door, instead of hanging out with a bunch of dorm buddies all day.

Can they give you children in the future?

If it weren’t her son’s birthday today, Zhao Lixia would have started scolding him over the phone.

The phone was on speaker, and Su’s dad chid in, "Son, didn’t you always spend your birthday with Shiqing in previous years? The dorm dinner won’t last too long, you can find her later."

"That’s right, it’s just a al, how much ti can it take? There’ll still be plenty of ti afterward!"

Zhao Lixia gave her husband a thumbs up.

Later is better, broad daylight lacks romance anyway.

Su Zelin chuckled, "Although it won’t be too late after dinner, I’ve also planned to go sing karaoke with my dorm friends. It should be past midnight by the ti we finish."
