Chapter 955: Xiao Chong Extra 31_3

By August 7th, Lin Wanwan’s tutoring sessions, which lasted over a month, came to an end.

The freshman military training was set to begin on August 16th, so with only 9 days of free time left, Xiao Chong suggested going on a graduation trip.

However, Lin Wanwan was still a bit hesitant, feeling a little embarrassed to bring it up to her grandfather.

If she went on the trip, it would mean leaving early and going straight into military training. Beijing was so far away, and after she left, her grandfather would be living alone, which made her reluctant to part with him.

Xiao Chong understood Lin Wanwan’s concerns and immediately arranged for a year of regular maid service through the property management. This would help her grandfather with the chores and also keep an eye on his health every day.

Lin Wanwan was very grateful for Xiao Chong’s thoughtfulness, as she hadn’t thought of this herself.

She wanted to repay Xiao Chong for the maid service. Her family had just given her a bonus of twenty thousand, and with the seven thousand she had earned from part-time work, she had twenty-seven thousand altogether.

But Xiao Chong firmly refused, and he had his reasons: "We’re engaged now, your grandpa is my grandpa. Isn’t it right to show him respect? Besides, you’re my girl now; from now on, you should spend my money. Don’t treat money matters so separately with me, alright?"

Lin Wanwan felt a lot of pressure: "You spend so much money on me, what if I can’t pay you back? I don’t have the ability to repay now. And, how did your family come up with so much money for the engagement? I’ve always wanted to say, the pressure is too much."

Xiao Chong smiled and kissed Lin Wanwan: "If you can’t pay back, then offer yourself up."

Lin Wanwan quickly turned her head: "Grandpa will come by!"

They were now in the first-floor living room, and Lin’s grandfather could walk in at any time.

Xiao Chong didn’t push any further, letting go immediately after the kiss.

In the end, Lin Wanwan was persuaded by Xiao Chong to go on the graduation trip to Hong Kong Island with him. The travel permit was expedited and processed the same day.

Before leaving, Lin Wanwan bought a smart visible speaker for her grandfather, which could make video calls conveniently.

On the morning of her departure, her grandfather boiled a bag of eggs for her. As he saw her off at the community entrance, he couldn’t help but cry, which made Lin Wanwan feel very sad when she saw it in the rearview mirror.

This was truly a long-distance trip, and Lin Wanwan really didn’t want to leave her grandfather.

Her grandfather had always doted on her since she was little, and this was the first time she would be away from him for so long.

Xiao Chong, holding Lin Wanwan, comforted her: "Don’t be sad, the National Day holiday is coming up soon. We can come back then, and now it only takes six hours on the high-speed train from Beijing to Yongcheng, or two and a half hours by plane, it’s quick."

"Yeah, but plane tickets are expensive," Lin Wanwan said tearfully.

Xiao Chong chuckled: "Your husband is rich."

Lin Wanwan was immediately flustered by his words, and couldn’t help but pinch his waist: "What husband."

"Ow~" Xiao Chong exaggeratedly inhaled, "We’re engaged, aren’t we?"

Lin Wanwan wasn’t as thick-skinned as he was, unable to rebut him, she simply kept quiet. Besides, Xiao’s father was driving ahead, and even if they were speaking softly, she still felt embarrassed.

At the airport, each of them had a large suitcase and a backpack, making it quite convenient.

After saying goodbye to Xiao’s parents, Xiao Chong took Lin Wanwan’s hand and walked into the airport terminal.

"What time is our flight?" Lin Wanwan asked him.

"It takes off after security check, we’re on a hitchhiker plane today."

"?" Lin Wanwan was puzzled. She’d heard of carpooling, but what was hitchhiker flight supposed to mean?

Half an hour later, sitting inside a spacious and unbelievably luxurious private jet, Lin Wanwan finally understood what hitchhiker flight meant.

The man in front of her, supposedly a good buddy of Xiao Chong, Lu Shouyue, actually owned a private jet!

The world of the rich was indeed beyond the imagination of the poor.

Only then did Lin Wanwan realize that Xiao Chong had not only brought her to Hong Kong Island for a graduation trip but also for an art exhibition.

To her surprise, Xiao Chong was a popular artist under the pseudonym "Chu Kuang", and his agency contract was signed with Lu Shouyue’s company! This art exhibition was organized by Lu Shouyue’s company.

A sudden thought struck Lin Wanwan, and she abruptly turned to ask Xiao Chong: "So the curtain painting in my room was painted by you?"

Xiao Chong smiled and gently tapped her head: "Quick reaction."

"So it’s really a genuine painting!" Lin Wanwan was shocked and asked Lu Shouyue, "Teacher Lu, how much did you just say his paintings sell for at auction?"

Lu Shouyue smiled calmly: "Seven figures."

Lin Wanwan took a deep breath, her heart aching, so she had been using a seven-figure painting as a curtain for three years? The colors had been faded by the sun!

She turned to glare at Xiao Chong: "You’re so wasteful!"

Xiao Chong chuckled: "It’s better used by my wife, wouldn’t you say?"

"Tsk! You two continue showing off, I’m going to watch a movie." Lu Shouyue stood up abruptly, not wanting to stay here any longer.

He decided to watch a movie in the screening room instead, otherwise, he’d be overwhelmed by their lovey-dovey antics.

Besides, last time he had a bizarre dream where he married Lin Wanwan, complete with detailed wedding scenes. Now facing this couple, he couldn’t help but feel guilty.
