Chapter 406: A Couple of Things to Do When Home (2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xiao Lin felt incredibly comfortable to see Familiar lanes, familiar floors, his parents surprise and enthusiasm, as well as the strong familial affection. Perhaps the many experiences he had in the New World made him cherish the feeling of home even more.

The dinner was specially prepared by his mother. Although Xiao Lin repeatedly stated that she did not need to cook that much, the table was soon filled with an abundance of delicacies.

You never even called in the past six months. Even if your signal is not good, you can still write a letter! Although his mother was complaining, her tone was not that serious.

After coming back, Xiao Lin immediately gave the bank card with a million RMB to his parents. He kept about 10,000 RMB for himself as funds to use on Earth for the next couple of days.

There was no doubt that Xiao Lin was already a successful person in the eyes of his parents, and during the meal, his parents would certainly bring up topics that they felt was something to be concerned about.

Is there anyone you like out there?

Not yet.

By the way, Uncle Wangs daughter stood out to me the other day. Shes working overseas too, and I think she came home about two days ago. Since you both are both here, we might as well seize this moment to introduce you two to each other.

Im still young, Mom, so Im not in a hurry.

How can you not be in a hurry! I want to hug my grandson a little earlier. Sigh, this is something I really look forward to at this point in my life. You could be a little considerate of your mother, you know.

Xiao Lin felt a headache coming on. Ever since he graduated from university, her calls for him to get married were made every two or three months, and his mother showed no signs of stopping even though he had gone to Dawn Academy.

Your mother and I met her yesterday. She looks decent and her dad also has a good temper. We were just casually talking about it yesterday and we didnt expect you to come back today. I think its settled then. Since its rare for you to be back home, you should get to know each other tomorrow, his taciturn but stoic father spoke clearly.

She might not fancy me, Xiao Lin was still trying to escape, but his statement was not entirely untrue. The Uncle Wang mentioned by his mother was originally their neighbor. When Xiao Lin was very young, he frequently heard his parents joking about marrying him to Uncle Wangs daughter in the future.

However, their daughter Wang Yuelan reportedly found a very good job about two years ago. When she first returned home, she bought an expensive villa in the suburbs for her parents to move in. It caused a sensation in town when that happened. Everyone thought that the Wang family got lucky and their daughter finally had a promising future.

Xiao Lin and Wang Yuelan were considered acquaintances, but the two of them have basically lost contact after going to university. After all, their relationship was nothing more than normal, albeit slightly distant, friends. Back then, both families aspirations for Wang Yuelan and Xiao Lin to be related through marriage was in jest. After the Wang family became richer, Xiao Lins parents thought that the Wang family might even look down on their own family.

Now that it was brought up again, Xiao Lin naturally expressed his opposition without hesitation. Whatever the case may be, he did not want to go on a blind date.

However, when the mothers nagging gradually turned into a plea, Xiao Lin had to agree softly. Like every parent who urged marriage, Xiao Lin could only passively accept it, but he hinted that he would try to contact Wang Yuelan first. After all, they had not been in contact for many years even though they were acquainted with each other.

After all, he would only have about ten days before he had to leave, but there was no harm in getting to know a friend from his childhood before leaving. With that, Xiao Lin had decided on his plan.

The parents were very concerned about this. After receiving Xiao Lins approval, they called Uncle Wang directly and asked for Wang Yuelans contact information. Xiao Lins mother even arranged a time for Xiao Lin to meet Wang Xuelan, even to the extent of arranging the exact location. Fortunately, his father was still quite sensible, as he said that the young peoples affairs should be handled by themselves, which allowed Xiao Lin to breathe a sigh of relief.

This is Yuelans phone number and QQ ID. Yuelan is a nice child. You must be more thoughtful. Why not just meet in the city? Our town is too small and there arent any places to have fun. Xiao Lins mother was still planning for him.

Xiao Lin found the whole thing absolutely troublesome. He had the sudden impulse to follow Song Junlang to Hawaii. Whatever he was doing there must surely be better than a forced blind date.

His mothers repeated urging forced him to download an app on his mobile phone. He then logged in, and a lot of messages flashed on QQ since he had not used it for a long time. They were mostly former classmates and friends. After graduation, everyones contact with each other lessened, and those connections were completely severed after Xiao Lin went to Dawn Academy.

Xiao Lin still missed his time at university and cherished the friends he had met. Even though he still considered himself to be living a school life, he readily responded to every message. In fact, most of them were nothing more than asking how he was or invitations to parties and the like.

After finishing all that, Xiao Lin thought about it and added Wang Yuelans QQ. She was also online at that moment, and his friend request was accepted in seconds. She took the initiative to send a smiley face and a string of text: [We havent seen each other for a long time, Brother Xiao Lin. How are you doing?]

Xiao Lin was half a year older than her. The way Wang Yuelan addressed him reminded him of the things in his childhood and his heart felt slightly warm. Although they had not seen each other in many years, they felt that close right away. The polite greetings and mutual inquiries lasted for a while. For a while.

Wang Yuelan claimed to be currently working in a foreign company out of town, and because she went abroad all the year round, she rarely had time to rest. Xiao Lin heard her insinuation and immediately stated that the meeting was forced upon him and he agreed just to appease his parents. Wang Yuelan seemed to acknowledge that as well.

To put it bluntly, Wang Yuelan said that she was busy with her career and had no plans to find a boyfriend or even start a family, but apparently her family also exerted a lot of pressure. As a girl, Wang Yuelan was undoubtedly under more pressure than Xiao Lin, which troubled her and led her to agree to meeting Xiao Lin.

[Brother Xiao Lin, if its alright, Ill pick you up tomorrow. We can rant a bit and meet up while were at it.]

[Sure.] Xiao Lin did not refuse. Since he was home, the least he could do was set his parents at ease. The ten-day vacation was still very long, so he had to find something to do.

The next day, Wang Yuelan came to pick up Xiao Lin as expected. She drove her brand-new baby to Xiao Lins house. Xiao Lin expected it, but after getting in the car, he joked, Youre putting me under a lot of pressure.

Wang Yuelan was not the stereotypical hot chick, but she stood out with her fair face, short hair, full eyebrows, light makeup, and a mature black professional dress that was easy on the eyes.

After getting in the car, Xiao Lin observed Wang Yuelan from the corner of his eyes, but found it difficult to notice any semblance of the Wang Yuelan he remembered from his childhood memories.
