Xu Lin opened the friend request list.
Sure enough, he saw the note saying it was Xia Xiyao’s WeChat.
He clicked agree.
Then, Xu Lin was the first to speak, replying in an ancient way: "Hello."
Xia Xiyao: "Hello. Smile.jpg"
Xu Lin didn’t reply, waiting for the other person to speak.
After half a minute without receiving any ssage, Xu Lin simply ignored it.
Buzz buzz.
Shang Wanjun’s ssage ca.
Shang Wanjun: "Hmm."
Hmm what?
Shang Wanjun: "Are you free?"
Of course, I’m free.
Xu Lin was excited, as long as he went with her, he could get a reward.
Skills? Buff? Or so special items?
Xu Lin replied: "I’m free. What ti do you plan to leave tomorrow, teacher?"
Shang Wanjun: "It’s up to you, I’m just going to take a look."
Xu Lin pressed his advantage: "Will you wear Hanfu, teacher? I heard there will be a lot of people wearing Hanfu at the scene."
Shang Wanjun went along with it: "Hanfu is okay, I’ve never worn Hanfu before."
Xu Lin: "I’ll pick you up at the school gate at nine o’clock tomorrow, then."
Shang Wanjun: "Okay."
By the ti it was past ten at night, Ning Yuhuan had finally finished her English work.
The essay and English-to-Chinese translation part was Xu Lin’s responsibility to correct, giving Ning Yuhuan so feedback.
It was an easy task for Xu Lin.
"Sis, this kind of essay of yours should be a full score or close to full score, right?"
Xu Lin looked at the essay and said: "No matter how well you write, you might only get one or two more points. You should focus on the multiple-choice and reading comprehension sections."
"I know!"
"How did the other answers fare?"
Xu Lin was curious.
Ning Yuhuan compared the answers: "I lost points on 8 multiple-choice questions, but this isn’t the exam hall, so there’s no pressure. It doesn’t really count; real performance is in the exam hall, so I have to keep trying."
"When is the exam again?"
"Mid-December!"
"Isn’t there still two months?"
"But they’ll pass quickly!"
"Then let’s talk about it later, it’s already past ten. Sis, let’s do sothing fun."
Xu Lin grinned mischievously, hugging her, and started kissing her neck.
"But I want to take a shower first; the sun was big today, and I sweated."
"I don’t mind, and you never minded ."
Xu Lin pulled her towards the bed, and in a few monts, their clothes were gone.
"Sis, I want pigtails!"
"What’s so good about pigtails?"
Sis didn’t get it at first, but Xu Lin just loved her in pigtails.
He said during those activities, he wanted to use them as steering handles.
"They’re cute, what other reason do I need?"
"Then wait a mont for ."
Sis was still a bit shy, covering the important parts of her body as she went to her bag and took out hair ties, eventually putting them into pigtails.
Yu Xinyan also wore pigtails today, but the two girls had completely different styles.
Xu Lin couldn’t quite describe the feeling.
If he had to say who was better, both were good, equally matched, each with their own charm.
"Co over quickly!"
"I’m coming, no need to rush!"
Ning Yuhuan covered her body and ca over, but before she reached Xu Lin, he pulled her into his arms.
However, Xu Lin didn’t tease her much tonight. By a little past midnight, they took a shower and went to sleep.
She had been a volunteer all day, mostly under the sun, so it would be a lie to say she wasn’t tired.
Even if paid, Xu Lin wouldn’t volunteer, but it was different for Ning Yuhuan. Being a volunteer enriched her spirit, making her optimistic, diligent, and resilient, though Xu Lin, with his more laid-back philosophy, might not fully understand this.
The night passed quietly.
The next day, everything was as usual. After breakfast with Ning Yuhuan, Xu Lin drove her to the volunteer gathering point.
The city bike race actually lasted for a day and a half, so Ning Yuhuan could leave by noon, being a volunteer only for half the day.
"Not volunteering this afternoon, going to revise the howork?"
Xu Lin suggested.
"I’ll go if you accompany ." Ning Yuhuan had her hands behind her back. Today she was wearing pigtails too, but since she had to wear a cap, they were low pigtails, not high ones, but still looked good.
"Then don’t go, have a rest in the afternoon; you must give yourself so downti."
"Okay, okay."
"I’m off now, I should be back to pick you up around one o’clock."
"I’ll wait for you then!"
Then Xu Lin drove all the way back to school.
Ti: 8:43 AM.
He opened WeChat, preparing to contact Shang Wanjun.
At this ti, he noticed a ssage from Xia Xiyao that ca at eleven o’clock last night.
Xia Xiyao: "Xiyan and that Ning Yuhuan, you should just choose one. Two-timing isn’t right, I can’t bear to see it anymore!"
Xia Xiyao: "This kind of behavior is very unethical, who knows what might happen if it’s exposed!"
"Tch."
Xu Lin swiped left to delete the ssage, setting it to Do Not Disturb.
Even though Xia Xiyao stayed at his apartnt, Xu Lin wasn’t familiar with her, hardly spoken a few words.
And for now, Xu Lin hadn’t done anything to provoke her.
"Teacher, I’m downstairs from your dorm."
"I’m frying zongzi, do you want so?"
Shang Wanjun sent Xu Lin a photo.
It was the long zongzi, cut into pieces, pan-fried to look very appetizing.
Xu Lin was quite interested: "Coming!"
He hadn’t eaten zongzi for a long ti.
Soon enough, Xu Lin went upstairs.
"Are these zongzi homade or bought?"
A few minutes later, Xu Lin was enjoying the hot zongzi, made with mung beans, peanuts, and semi-fat pork. Specially fried, it was delicious, and the crispy parts were crunchy.
"My mom made them."
Shang Wanjun said.
"So aunty is so good at cooking?"
