Chapter 581: Chapter 143: Chi Linyue and Ning Yuhuan’s First Meeting (Part 2)

This is why most kids from rural areas can’t make something of themselves for a lifetime.

Mhm.

One of the reasons.

Xu Lin simply changed the topic.

Summer was approaching, and Xu Lin wanted to get some new clothes, and Ning Yuhuan needed some too.

Xu Lin still hoped his girlfriend would dress beautifully. Like Ning Yuhuan, it’s fine if she doesn’t wear makeup—naturally beautiful, with striking features that are quite authoritative—but she couldn’t be without pretty clothes. Otherwise, it would be rare among girls for Ning Yuhuan to always wear the same outfits.

"Xu Lin, did you take someone else’s phone?"

While Xu Lin was shopping for clothes, Chi Linyue sent a message. She recognized right away that it was from Xu Lin.

"You caught me."

"Hmph!"

"Is she afraid to take red envelopes?"

"Not really. This girl is cautious, and your red envelopes are generous. She’s usually quite frugal; a thousand yuan could last her two months. Her parents are honest folks from the countryside, so she’s somewhat the same."

"A good girl indeed."

"Right."

Xu Lin glanced over at Ning Yuhuan, who was a short distance away, and the store attendant was helping her pick clothes. Xu Lin snapped a photo and sent it to Chi Linyue.

"Really pretty, pure and cute, just like me in college!"

"Were you really this innocent in college?"

"Get lost!"

"Haha..."

Chi Linyue then sent a few photos from her freshman year of college.

This was Xu Lin’s first time seeing what Chi Linyue looked like in college. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Ponytail, just like Ning Yuhuan.

Honestly, she did look as pure and cute as Ning Yuhuan.

Except Chi Linyue was sixteen as a freshman, and Ning Yuhuan is now nineteen, so Chi Linyue looked a bit more youthful.

And if Xu Lin wanted to know, he’d find out that Ning Yuhuan’s current dorm was once Chi Linyue’s dorm.

Even the same bed.

Sometimes fate works in mysterious ways.

After buying the clothes, Xu Lin and Ning Yuhuan went home.

That night, Xu Lin spent several hours with Ning Yuhuan.

Recently, Xu Lin, in a passive attempt to abstain, because Ning Yuhuan’s relative had come to visit. Also, he’d been with Ning Yuhuan for ten consecutive days, so it was a period of passive abstinence. Now that Ning Yuhuan’s relative had left, well, you can imagine.

The next morning, Ning Yuhuan woke Xu Lin up while he was still asleep.

"Hubby, your phone."

Ning Yuhuan pointed at Xu Lin’s phone, which she had already answered.

At first, she didn’t answer it, but then the call came again, and Ning Yuhuan thought it must be important, so she picked up.

"Who?"

Xu Lin asked in a word, grabbing his phone.

"Mr. Xu, it’s Ye Shengjun. Am I interrupting your leisure? Haha..."

"Oh, it’s Mr. Ye. My fiancée answered it earlier."

Ye Shengjun had previously bought his drama script "Dajing Dynasty," which was a few months ago.

"Haha, I see. Not disturbing you, am I?"

"Not at all, the sun is high in the sky, just about to get up."

There were curtains in the room, but light was leaking through, so it must be sunny outside—another bright day.

"What can I do for you, Mr. Ye?"

"Well, the TV drama is about to start shooting. There’s an opening ceremony. Haven’t seen Mr. Xu in a while, wanted to catch up."

"I see."

It’s now late April, and it’s time for the opening ceremony.

After chatting a bit, Xu Lin found out the opening ceremony was the day after tomorrow.

But the opening ceremony wasn’t important to someone like Ye Shengjun. Sitting down and chatting with Xu Lin was more important to him.

In middle age, at his level, finding someone you connect with is rare, even a spouse can’t fulfill that role.

Ye Shengjun wanted to discuss high-level topics with Xu Lin.

Like history, religion, philosophy—it takes cultural literacy and a certain level of thought to have those conversations.

Only Xu Lin could talk with him about those topics.

Right now, Xu Lin had a lot of books in his mind. Take history, for example—he’s well-versed in the Twenty-Four Histories, more so than those historians.

They’re just ordinary people, but Xu Lin is exceptional.

Normal people can’t compare to him.

That’s the difference.
