Chapter 53

53 You Have to Come; So It’s You

It had rained the night before, and the tree branches outside had become green. It was a very beautiful sight.

Lin Fan opened the window, and a light breeze blew in. He felt really refreshed.

Scallion pancakes and delicious-smelling noodles were already placed in the living room.

When Dai Weixue saw Lin Fan, she said, “Lil’ Fan, go wash up. The noodles are going to get cold.”

“Alright,” Lin Fan replied.

The sound of running water was heard, then Lin Fan walked out of the washroom a moment later.

He directly stuffed a big portion of noodles into his mouth, his face full of satisfaction.

At this time, Lin Tao finally could not help but ask, “Lil’ Fan, what kind of medicine did you give us yesterday?”

“Your mother and I seem to have recovered from our injuries… And, it feels like… we’ve become ten years younger.”

When Dai Weixue heard this, her old face revealed a rare blush.

Then, she secretly looked at Lin Fan with a curious gaze.

“Uhh…” Lin Fan said. “It’s a newly developed supplement, and it’s still very rare.”

Lin Tao and Dai Weixue nodded thoughtfully and did not pursue the matter further.

After breakfast, Dai Weixue originally wanted to go buy some groceries.

However, Lin Fan told her to rest at home while he walked toward the market.

At this time, the market was very lively and full of people.

Lin Fan bought quite a lot of meat, vegetables, and fish. He carried bags of various sizes and was about to head back.

At this moment, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

“Are you… Wang Xiaodong?” Lin Fan asked.

“Lin Fan?” The young man opposite him said in surprise.

“Hahaha! It really is you! I didn’t expect to meet you here,” Lin Fan said happily.

Wang Xiaodong was Lin Fan’s deskmate in junior high. The two of them had a good relationship.

It was a pity that neither one of them had a cell phone number, QQ, or WeChat back then.

Therefore, they had never been able to contact each other.

“Yeah, I’m surprised too.” Wang Xiaodong laughed.

The woman of medium build standing next to him asked, “Xiaodong, who is this?”

“Oh, he’s Lin Fan, my deskmate in junior high… At that time, our relationship was especially good,” Wang Xiaodong introduced to the woman. “Lin Fan, this is my wife, Gong Siqin.”

“Oh, so you’re Xiaodong’s good friend?” Gong Siqin asked, suddenly enlightened. “It’s a pleasure to meet you!”

After a pause, she added, “By the way, Xiaodong and I are having our wedding next Sunday. You must come and attend it.”

Wang Xiaodong’s face turned pale.

His relationship with Lin Fan was indeed really good.

However, they had not contacted each other for so many years.

Now, the moment they met, his wife was asking him to attend their wedding and present gifts.

It made it seem as though Wang Xiaodong was greedy for Lin Fan’s ‘gift money’.

He did not like this feeling.

Lin Fan also noticed the change in Wang Xiaodong’s expression.

He thought about it for a while and roughly guessed the reason.

Lin Fan did not really care about the money.

However, he was not sure if he would be free next Sunday.

He did not know if the National Mathematical Modeling Competition would be held next week.

“If I’m free next Sunday, I’ll come over,” Lin Fan said.

“Alright, then it’s a deal! By the way, Xiaodong, do you have his contact information?”

Wang Xiaodong did not want to, but he had no choice but to give Lin Fan his contact information under these circumstances.

This would make things even worse.

After exchanging contact information, Lin Fan returned home.

At that moment, Lin Xiaoyao was sitting on the sofa and playing with her phone.

When she saw Lin Fan, she pounced on him excitedly and shouted, “Brother, why didn’t you tell me you were coming back? If I had known, I would have come back directly after my evening self-study session!”

Qing City No. 1 Middle School was very strict with the students’ studies.

Apart from weekends, they had to study at night every day.

The evening self-study session lasted until 10 o’clock in the evening. Therefore, most students chose to stay in the dormitory from Monday to Saturday and only go home on the weekends.

Lin Xiaoyao was one of the students.

Lin Fan pinched Lin Xiaoyao’s face and said, “You’ve lost weight again. Lil’ Yao, you really have to eat more. It’s too painful to see you like this now.”

“Brother! This is called an oval-shaped face!” Lin Xiaoyao protested.

In the afternoon, the whole family cooked together while chatting and laughing. It was extremely heartwarming.

When Lin Fan placed the freshly stir-fried green pepper shredded pork on the table in the living room, the time was exactly 12:00 PM. The phone in his pocket vibrated slightly.

The red packets had appeared!

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received two yuan.]

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received 2000 yuan.]

…

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received 10,000 yuan.]

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received 10 yuan.]

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received 1,000 yuan.]

Today, he had received a total of 30,507 yuan.

About this… Lin Fan did not pay it any attention and put his phone back into his pocket.

Soon, a large table of delicious food was prepared.

The family sat around the table and ate happily.

Lin Fan wanted to stay at home for a while longer.

However, Lin Tao and Dai Weixue were worried that it would be unsafe to drive too late at night, so they asked Lin Fan to head to Jiangbei early.

…

Jiangbei University.

When Lin Fan walked into Room 104, Ma Zhong was packing his books.

Zheng Jinbao said happily, “Brother Lin Fan, you came back just in time. I asked my cousin out for a meal today. I’m preparing to go over with Ma Zhong and Song Yi.”

“Then it seems… I really did return early. I should’ve returned at the right timing instead.” Lin Fan smiled.

Song Yi said, “Brother Lin Fan, Jinbao’s cousin is an internet celebrity!”

“Is that so?” Lin Fan was a little surprised.

After all, Zheng Jinbao was full of fat.

His cousin was probably not any better, right?

If that were the case… could his cousin really become an internet celebrity?

Zheng Jinbao seemed to understand Lin Fan’s thoughts and said, “Don’t think that because I’m fat my cousin would be too. My cousin has a great figure. Let’s go. You’ll know soon!”

After he finished speaking, he took the lead and walked outside.

Originally, Zheng Jinbao, Song Yi, and Ma Zhong were prepared to take a taxi over.

Now that they had Lin Fan, however, they naturally did not have to go through so much trouble.

Lin Fan immediately drove the Mercedes-Benz G-Class and headed to the location that Zheng Jinbao had told him about.

This was a Hunan cuisine restaurant with a relatively large storefront.

Zheng Jinbao rolled down the car window and looked at the young woman in a pink t-shirt who was playing with her mobile phone as she walked. He called out, “Lisi, Zheng Lisi!”

The woman turned around when she heard that.

In the next moment, her face, which was caked with a lot of foundation, revealed a look of surprise that was difficult to hide.

She jogged over and said, “Heavens! A G-Class! Cousin, why did you come here in a Mercedes-Benz G-Class?”

Zheng Jinbao got out of the car and said proudly, “This is my roommate, Lin Fan’s, car.”

At that moment, Lin Fan also got out of the car.

Zheng Lisi’s face showed a hint of doubt.

The next moment, her eyes widened as she shouted, “So it’s you!”
