Xu Lin stopped in front of her. Yu Xinyan’s hair was thick and long. Although it couldn’t rival the length of Ning Yuhuan’s hair, it was still quite impressive. Her twin ponytails looked really nice, adding a playful and lively vibe.
"Xu Lin, do I look nice?"
Yu Xinyan spun around in front of him.
"Pretty nice."
"Is it just nice?"
Yu Xinyan asked again. Xu Lin reached out and touched one of the ponytails.
"How about now?"
Yu Xinyan didn’t say anything, but she was very happy.
"Have you eaten?"
"No, I was waiting for you!"
"If you don’t eat breakfast, you’ll get a stomachache later."
Xu Lin patted the seat behind him, "Hop on!"
"Xu Lin, did you buy a car?"
"Obviously, it’s a new car!"
Xu Lin said, "Actually, I wanted to buy a four-wheeler, but I feel two wheels are better."
"Two wheels are indeed better!"
Yu Xinyan sat on the vehicle, placing her hands on Xu Lin’s shoulders.
This way, I can sit behind you, hold onto your shoulders, and ride with you everywhere.
Yu Xinyan leaned her nose close to Xu Lin’s shoulder, carefully sniffing.
A woman’s nose is sotis very sensitive, and there was still a lingering scent of a female on him. After all, Ning Yuhuan had been leaning on Xu Lin’s back just an hour ago, and her scent still lingered on him.
Yu Xinyan wanted to visit Finance University to find that girl!
"Are you seated properly?"
"Yeah, I’m seated."
"What do you want to eat?"
"Mung bean porridge!"
Xu Lin found a breakfast place. Such a place would surely have mung bean porridge.
"Aren’t you eating, Xu Lin?"
"I ate enough this morning. I’ll have a soymilk."
"Oh, okay."
After they were full, it was only ten o’clock.
It was still quite early.
"Xu Lin, I want to go to the library."
"City library?"
"Yes."
Xu Lin thought he had nothing else to do, so going to look at so books was fine too.
"Then let’s go to the library!"
Not long after, the two arrived at the city library. Xu Lin had been there with Ning Yuhuan before.
Yu Xinyan was there to study, while Xu Lin was just there to read.
This ti, he was reading "Han Shu," a historical book with about 800,000 words.
Xu Lin took more than an hour to finish it. Given that he had previously cramd the Ancient Chinese Dictionary and the Great Chinese Dictionary into his brain, he now read ancient texts with ease, understanding everything effortlessly. Of course, there were so interpretations he couldn’t figure out, such as certain historical records, which he had to look up online to understand.
"Records of the Grand Historian" and "Han Shu" are both quite special, having a great influence not only on historical research but also on literary creation. However, Xu Lin was just cultivating his mind for now, and reading them was quite simple for him.
For a regular person to read these two historical books, even though they total just under 1.5 million words, comprehending them is quite challenging. To study history, one usually starts with popular history books like "Five Thousand Years of Chinese Civilization" instead of diving directly into the advanced books like "Records of the Grand Historian" or "Han Shu."
After finishing "Han Shu," the next would be "Book of the Later Han" and "Records of the Three Kingdoms." These four historical books form the "Four Histories," with high artistic, political, and intellectual content.
While Xu Lin was reading, Yu Xinyan sat beside him.
"Xu Lin, you’re reading so fast. Are you really absorbing it?"
"Let’s not talk about that. Why don’t you test ?"
Xu Lin handed "Han Shu" to her.
"How should I test you?"
Yu Xinyan opened "Han Shu," which was entirely in ancient text with no annotations, making her head spin just looking at it.
"Like, ask to recite any part? I’ve morized the whole book!"
"You’ve morized it all?"
Yu Xinyan was surprised. She knew Xu Lin best. Entering university, she had been worried that Xu Lin wouldn’t keep up.
"I’ve morized it all. Test , and you’ll see."
"Let think..."
Yu Xinyan opened to a part of "Records of Emperor Wu."
"Then recite the part from the first year of Jian Yuan?"
Yu Xinyan glanced over the passage; it was a long string of ancient text, much of which was clearly beyond the level of high school ancient literature.
Xu Lin began to recite: "In the second month of spring, forgive the world..."
Soon, he finished reciting the part from the first year of Jian Yuan.
Yu Xinyan, still surprised, asked Xu Lin to recite the second year of Yuan Guang, and he did it the sa way.
Later, she asked Xu Lin to recite certain passages from a few other Chapters.
"Xu Lin, have you really morized all of it?"
"Of course."
Xu Lin said, "Recently, I’ve suddenly co to a realization, and my mory has gotten extraordinarily good. I can morize a lot just by glancing at it a couple of tis."
"So you’ve also morized ’Book of the Later Han’ and ’Records of the Three Kingdoms’ from here?"
"I’ve morized them!"
"How did your mory suddenly improve so much?"
Yu Xinyan was quite shocked. Even she didn’t have such a mory.
"Didn’t I just say? I suddenly enlightened. I don’t understand it either."
"Hmm, that’s great!"
Yu Xinyan was quite surprised, but also genuinely happy for Xu Lin. He used to be unserious and unfocused, but after graduating high school, he seed to be on the right track, which made Yu Xinyan feel very happy, as if Xu Lin had finally grown up.
Afterward, Xu Lin pulled out "Dream of the Red Chamber" and "Jin Ping i."
Yu Xinyan glanced at the cover of "Jin Ping i," blushing, "Why this kind of book?"
"Even great figures have praised this book, so there’s no harm in looking at it. Besides, the city library has it, which proves there’s nothing wrong with it."
Xu Lin’s expression didn’t change, "And if you can watch adult movies, why be afraid of this borderline book? Plus, it’s not like it’s an explicit book."
"Jin Ping i" is indeed a very unique book, and a great person even said that "Jin Ping i" is the ancestor of "Dream of the Red Chamber."
However, for widely known reasons, the reality-level revelations in this book were too intense and got it banned.
Yu Xinyan remarked, "I know it’s not an explicit book, it’s just that so of its content is quite odd."
"It’s okay, I’m just interested in the thoughts in it; I’m not focusing on the erotic parts."
Yu Xinyan nodded.
But just as Xu Lin was flipping through the book, Yu Xinyan suddenly asked in a timid voice, "Xu Lin, do you usually watch those types of movies?"
"Huh? What type of movies?"
Xu Lin was puzzled, "Those types of movies?"
"Yes."
Yu Xinyan replied softly.
"I watch them."
Xu Lin thought watching wasn’t a big deal, and it wasn’t like he’d never seen one. Although it had been a while since he last watched, now that he had a girlfriend, why watch these things?
"Oh, okay."
Yu Xinyan nodded slightly, and Xu Lin casually replied, continuing to flip through the book. He read quickly. Unless intentional morization was involved, he could almost grasp it at a glance just by simply exploring the content and ideas.
So it didn’t take long for Xu Lin to flip through half of "Jin Ping i."
But at this mont, Yu Xinyan suddenly said, "Xu Lin... if you feel uncomfortable... you can co to ..."
Yu Xinyan’s voice was faint as a mosquito, her beautiful face blushing prettily, extrely exquisite.
This sentence was continuous. Yu Xinyan ant, if watching those kinds of movies made him uncomfortable, he could find her.
Xu Lin was taken aback for a mont.
[A girl who lets you do whatever you want.]
After saying that, Yu Xinyan lowered her head and returned to her book, looking very serious, but her pretty face was as red as a tomato, almost dripping.
