Chapter 702: Chapter 178: Xu Lin Fabricates Oracle Bone Script and Visits Ning Yuhuan’s Home for the Second Time (Part 3)

Also, Xu Lin doesn’t spend every day on set, so he can’t really say much; he can only say he almost got it.

Plans can’t keep up with changes; Xu Lin didn’t expect to be so busy lately.

On Thursday and Friday, Xu Lin was at the set of "Dajing Dynasty," driving there as well.

In August, the weather is very hot.

The temperature here, during the day, can peak at forty degrees.

Xu Lin felt really uncomfortable but still stuck with the crew for over a day.

Equally, they treated him to good food and drinks.

There’s no choice; Xu Lin hasn’t been here in a long time, so he has to handle these social niceties.

He’s incredibly busy.

After these two dramas, Xu Lin estimates he won’t be involved in TV series anymore; even if he is, he won’t be a screenwriter, maybe just sell a script or be a casual investor.

Besides, he rarely visits, and he’ll be busy with many things later.

On Friday night at half-past midnight, Xu Lin finally returned home, worn out.

Ning Yuhuan was still waiting for him.

Because Ning Yuhuan had asked Xu Lin in advance when he would arrive.

So as soon as Xu Lin returned home, he smelled the aroma of delicious dishes.

Four dishes and a soup!

Freshly cooked, Xu Lin felt his appetite opening up just at the sight.

"Looks good!"

Xu Lin sat down and began to eat.

When a man returns home and his wife has prepared delicious food waiting for him.

Actually, happiness is just that simple.

"Eat more!"

"Have a piece of beef."

Xu Lin picked up a piece of beef for Ning Yuhuan, who opened her little mouth and took a bite.

"Have you packed your luggage?"

"All packed!"

"Then that’s settled, we’ll set off tomorrow morning," Xu Lin nodded slightly.

After eating and drinking their fill.

Xu Lin went to take a shower, while Ning Yuhuan washed the dishes.

They didn’t sleep until after two; they didn’t do much, just went to sleep honestly because Xu Lin had returned too late.

On Saturday morning, Xu Lin and his companions packed lightly and drove to Duanzhou in Guangdong Province.

"By the way, how long is my sister leaving you off?"

"She said two weeks, telling me to rest well and enjoy myself, but I feel there’s no need to stay that long, and it’s not good to leave for too long either."

"Then have a good two-week relaxation; it’s nothing major, because once you’re officially working in society, you’ll have endless work, stuff to keep you busy, so now’s your rare chance to chill and not overthink it."

That’s what Xu Lin said, and actually Chi Linyue thought so too.

Just like many people regret not playing well during the three months after the college entrance exam or not enjoying themselves during the summer holidays in their first and second year of college.

Because generally, unless you become a teacher in the future, there will never be such a long holiday again.

Just can’t not work, right?

But that’s just a very small minority of people; they don’t lack money, don’t need to work much, can rest whenever they want, and also those who absolutely want to lie flat, but not those who think about lying flat yet envy others’ good life, because they’re not actually lying flat.

Xu Lin: "We won’t work for these two weeks, we’ll go to the countryside to escape the heat."

"Are you staying at my place for two weeks?" Ning Yuhuan was very much looking forward.

"Yeah, staying at your place for half a month."

"Don’t you usually need to be busy? You’ve been so busy lately."

"I’m on vacation now, occasionally dealing with trivial matters; you see, I’ve granted myself a holiday, you should too, relax a bit."

"Then I’ll listen to my husband!"

"That’s the way!"

Xu Lin and company set off in the morning, with over a thousand kilometers from Jiangdu to Duanzhou, a drive starting at fifteen hours.

They arrived at Guang Mansion by eleven at night, and Xu Lin found a hotel to stay for the night.

Only the next morning did Xu Lin and company reach Ning Yuhuan’s home in the county.

Ning Haifeng had gone out to work, while Ning Yuhuan’s mom Wu Xiulin, a teacher on summer break, was at home looking after the kids.

"Brother-in-law!"

"Brother-in-law!"

Suisui and An’an exclaimed in unison; the two children were really excited to see Xu Lin after such a long time, both rushing over.

Last time they met was back in January at the start of the year; now it’s already been half a year; they’ve both grown taller but remain very lovely, thanks to their outstanding genes.

"Suisui, An’an, let brother-in-law give you a hug!"

Xu Lin put down his things and bent over to lift them up.

"Brother-in-law, you look so handsome today!" An’an said.

"An’an looks pretty too; you’ll be a beautiful lady when you grow up!"

"Brother-in-law, how about Suisui?"

Suisui quickly piped up.

"Suisui will be a handsome guy!"

"What’s a handsome guy?"

Five-year-old Suisui still didn’t know what "handsome guy" meant, and had no concept, looking blank.

"Like brother-in-law, handsome like that!"

"Then I want to be as handsome as brother-in-law!" Suisui immediately understood.

"Has Lin grown taller?"

When Xu Lin sat on the sofa, Wu Xiulin poured him a cup of warm tea.

"Grown a little taller recently, just reaching 1.9 meters, though height’s about the same as before."

"1.9 meters, that’s really tall!"

Wu Xiulin gestured, showing a height much above her head.

She is 1.67 meters tall; don’t be deceived by their mere height difference of 23 centimeters; height isn’t just a concept of height but also volume, so taller people aren’t just thin poles; they’re generally bigger, often giving a sense of visual pressure, making Wu Xiulin’s 167 seem petite next to Xu Lin.

On this trip, Xu Lin bought lots of toys, clothes, shoes, and snacks for the two kids.

When it came time to distribute gifts, both were very happy; kids love these things, just like most people expect joy during Lunar New Year’s, savoring the time when dear family members are home, along with yummy food, fun things, and new clothes and shoes, not being happy is the real surprise.
