Lei Haolong spent six hours at Xu Lin’s place, all of which were spent pondering computer gas.
He left reluctantly just before it got dark.
At that mont, Xu Lin was the only one left at ho.
For a while, Xu Lin felt a bit at a loss.
Suddenly, Xu Lin rembered the ability he had acquired today.
Divine Penmanship?
Xu Lin thought about his high school essays.
His Chinese score was average, and his essays never scored above 50 points, usually hovering between 42 and 48.
Now, as he sat in front of the computer, he thought about this year’s college entrance exam essay topic.
"Did I go off-topic?"
Xu Lin suddenly wondered.
"Whatever, if it’s off-topic, so be it."
Xu Lin figured that, even if he didn’t do well on the college entrance exam, the sky wouldn’t fall.
That’s what he always thought in the past.
Not to ntion, he now had a golden touch.
Xu Lin’s character was rather carefree and optimistic, setting him apart from most of his peers.
It’s not that Xu Lin was more mature; he was just more carefree.
To Xu Lin, the joy of life was more important.
"This ability’s not bad, I feel a surge of inspiration coming on!"
Xu Lin wanted to rewrite the college entrance exam essay, and just thinking about it brought a rush of endless inspiration to his mind.
He felt that now, if he wanted to write, he could effortlessly produce a high-scoring essay.
A perfect score essay?
Let’s be humble!
Soon, Xu Lin crafted an essay introduction and was planning to continue writing.
But Xu Lin felt sothing wasn’t right.
"The college entrance exam is over, why am I writing an essay? Am I out of my mind?"
Xu Lin stopped typing, suddenly realizing.
"Oh, yeah!"
"I heard that writing online novels, if you beco a big shot, makes a lot of money."
Xu Lin had previously followed a novel and joined the fan group. The author earned several million a year, averaging hundreds of thousands a month.
Xu Lin thought with his "Divine Penmanship", wouldn’t writing be more impressive than these people?
But it was just a thought.
Xu Lin felt a surge of inspiration, but when he wanted to start typing, he was at a loss.
"I’m so handso, do I need to sit in front of the computer being a miserable, greasy author?"
Xu Lin wasn’t soone who believed in survivor bias or the success of a select few, because he’d heard the novel industry was really tough. Many people could only earn the full attendance bonus while having to update thousands of words daily, really tough.
Besides, to write a book, you have to write for at least a month. Once the word count and recomndations are sufficient, you can monetize it. Then, when it cos to paynt, it takes another month. So it takes two to three months to get the money.
Just thinking about it felt tough.
Xu Lin felt he couldn’t get into this.
Especially since it takes so long to make money.
Night fell, and the world outside the window was already enveloped in darkness.
Xu Lin sat in front of the computer, pondering over what to do.
Knock, knock!
At that mont,
a knocking sound ca from outside the door.
Xu Lin opened the phone-connected doorbell monitor and found out it was Yu Xinyan.
The girl had clearly just taken a bath, looking like a blooming lotus, breathtaking to behold.
Xu Lin went to open the door and let Yu Xinyan in.
Her long hair was loose, with a white short-sleeved top, black sports pants on her lower body, and a pair of slippers, just a regular outfit. But a good-looking person is destined to be a clothes hanger, fitting any outfit.
As soon as Yu Xinyan entered, she took off her shoes.
Because Xu Lin’s place had wooden floors, and with the windows sealed, it was very clean inside.
Unlike other guys’ ssy lairs, Xu Lin’s place was unusually clean and tidy.
"Xu Lin, have you eaten?"
"I’ll cook so instant noodles in a bit."
"Instant noodles aren’t healthy."
"But all I have at ho are instant noodles. I can’t order takeout, can I?"
"Takeout is the least healthy, filled with pre-prepared dishes. Even porridge is pre-made!"
Yu Xinyan quickly shook her head.
Xu Lin: "Then I’ll just eat instant noodles. I’ll add so mushrooms and white fungus."
"Alright, but no matter what, you should eat instant noodles less!"
"I’ll listen to you."
"Hmph!"
Yu Xinyan walked around the room happily with her hands behind her back and then entered Xu Lin’s room.
"Xu Lin, did you get a new computer?"
"Yeah."
Yu Xinyan didn’t understand computer specs; she just rembered that the last ti she was there, Xu Lin’s computer wasn’t like this.
Buzz, buzz...
Just then, the phone on the table started vibrating.
Yu Xinyan reminded, "Xu Lin, you have a call!"
Before Xu Lin could respond, Yu Xinyan curiously looked at who it was, only seeing one word.
Uncle.
"Xu Lin, it’s your uncle’s call!"
Yu Xinyan really thought it was Xu Lin’s uncle.
But Xu Lin said, "That’s your dad!"
"Ah!"
Yu Xinyan was startled.
"Didn’t you tell your dad in advance that you were coming?"
"I sneaked over," Yu Xinyan said weakly.
Xu Lin answered the call.
"Hello?"
"Xu Lin, is Yanyan at your place?"
"Uncle, don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Yanyan!"
Yu Jianhua: ...
This brat!
Yu Jianhua said, "Make sure she cos back early, and don’t get handsy. If I find out you got handsy, you’re finished, brat. I was quite the rebel back in the day!"
"Uncle, don’t worry!"
Xu Lin chatted for a couple of sentences before ending the call.
Yu Jianhua was a doting father, terrified that Xu Lin, this troublemaker, might do sothing to his precious daughter.
"Xu Lin, did my dad say anything?" Yu Xinyan asked, a bit apprehensive.
"He said to take good care of you."
"Ugh!"
Yu Xinyan’s cheeks turned red as she sat on Xu Lin’s bed, swinging her fair feet.
Although Xu Lin wasn’t into legs or feet, seeing Yu Xinyan’s feet, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration.
An earthly treasure!
[A girl who lets you do as you wish anyti.]
The words above her head changed too.
But Xu Lin figured if he really touched her, tonight Yu Jianhua might co over with a cleaver, knowing that Yu Jianhua had been guarding against him for six years.
Xu Lin said, "I’ll go cook instant noodles."
"Mm-hmm."
Yu Xinyan nodded, Xu Lin’s bed was rather high, her feet didn’t touch the ground, she swung them back and forth while playing on her phone.
The class group chat was quite lively.
Yu Xinyan saw a notification in the group chat about forming a team to learn to drive.
The ssage was from the class monitor.
And the class monitor was Zhao Yifei.
Only to see Zhao Yifei @everyone: "Has everyone prepared to get their driver’s license? After the college entrance exam, we have a three-month holiday, let’s take this ti to get our licenses. Plus, we just graduated high school, so there are discounts. Those interested in forming a team, type 1."
So many people typed 1.
Afterward, Zhao Yifei also @Yu Xinyan: Yu Xinyan, are you going? The driving school we’re planning to go to is really good...
Zhao Yifei wrote quite a bit, maybe one or two hundred words, with no end in sight.
Actually, Zhao Yifei’s target was obviously Yu Xinyan.
Yu Xinyan didn’t reply imdiately, but instead, she called out to Xu Lin: "Xu Lin, are you getting your driver’s license? Our class is teaming up, and they say there’s a discount."
"Sure, go ahead!"
"Then I’ll go too!"
Yu Xinyan replied in the class group: "I’m going."
At Xu Lin’s place, she was a cute sweet girl, but in class, she was a cool goddess, spoke little, and didn’t like to interact with others.
On the other hand, Zhao Yifei got excited after seeing the reply. He was worried Yu Xinyan wouldn’t go.
Actually, Zhao Yifei didn’t have a driver’s license yet, but since his family had a car, he had already figured out how to drive, so much so that he could claim three years of driving experience. When it cos to the test, he’d be the only one who could drive in class. Yu Xinyan would definitely be impressed and might even ask for advice.
Thinking about this made Zhao Yifei extrely excited.
However, life is unpredictable, full of ups and downs.
Lei Haolong didn’t forget his good buddy Xu Lin.
He @Xu Lin in the class group: Xu Lin, are you going? Mischievous_smile.jpg
Lei Haolong thought Xu Lin must have been secretly browsing after he left.
In fact, at that ti the class group was just having normal conversations.
But then, Yu Xinyan took a picture of Xu Lin cooking instant noodles and posted it in the class group.
Yu Xinyan also said: "Xu Lin is cooking instant noodles!"
With Yu Xinyan’s picture and reply, the class group chat exploded with ssages.
Yu Xinyan is at Xu Lin’s place?
