She felt sorry for her parents, who were already old and still had to worry about their daughter. Yan Xin's mindset changed drastically. Having experienced more, she naturally felt more affection for her parents and considered their needs more.
"Alright, you're the most sensible one. Your parents are so lucky to have a daughter like you." After saying this, Lin Xiazhu immediately shut up. If her previous life before her rebirth was considered her past life, then Yan Xin's parents had also suffered a lot.
Because Yan Xin had been a patient for ten years, her once black hair had turned white from worry.
"Let's not talk about that anymore. Tell me about your family." Yan Xin still cared about Cha Cha and the others.
Lin Xiazhu talked to her all the way. When they got off the car and entered the apartment building, Yan Xin was so shocked that she opened her mouth wide and couldn't speak for a long time.
"Really? Cha Cha has already found a boyfriend, and she's aiming for marriage. Is that reliable?" Clearly, she shared Lin Xia Zhu's thoughts, feeling that Lin Cha Cha was too young and it was too early for her to be in a relationship.
"He seems nice. By the way, he'll be coming over with Chacha during the summer vacation. You'll see when you meet him." Just then, the elevator came down, and they got in.
"Which floor?" Lin Xiazhu asked, staring at the button.
"Tenth floor."
As they talked, they quickly reached the tenth floor. After getting out of the elevator, Yan Xin put her things down, took out her key to open the door, and turned on the light. Lin Xiazhu noticed that the house was luxuriously decorated and quite spacious.
"It must be two hundred square meters, right? You've really got some impressive skills." Lin Xiazhu exclaimed in amazement, put down her things, and walked around the entire house.
It has a large balcony, and the bathroom and kitchen are quite spacious. There are three bedrooms, a study, and a large living room. Rich people are indeed generous; the houses they buy are all bigger than others'.
Last year, Lin Xiazhu also bought three houses, two of which were around 120 pings and the other was only 100 pings. At the time, she thought they were very spacious, but now that she has seen Yan Xin's house, she is not so proud anymore. Compared to Yan Xin's house, it is far inferior.
“Of course, mine costs over a million, while yours is only six or seven hundred thousand. The price is almost half. Naturally, it’s not as spacious as mine, but it’s still pretty good. In a few years, house prices will double, and you won’t be able to buy a house for a million.” Yan Xin said with a smile.
Lin Xiazhu nodded. So mindset is very important. If you keep comparing yourself to others, you will never feel happy. People should know how to be content.
During dinner, Lin Xiazhu suddenly received a call from Xiao An. The two chatted for a few minutes before hanging up.
After finishing one bowl of rice, Yan Xin filled another bowl. The braised pork and fried tofu were so delicious that she almost swallowed her tongue. The braised tofu and stewed chicken with pork belly were also very tasty.
"Xiao An made the call? How heartless of you! Even after becoming the young master of the Bai family, you rarely contact us anymore. How long has it been since you last called?" Yan Xin was very dissatisfied with Xiao An.
“We called on New Year’s Eve, and we usually exchange text messages. What’s the big deal? Everyone has their own life. Does his life have to be tied to ours? Everyone is very busy.” Lin Xiazhu seemed unconcerned.
“I didn’t understand before. I thought that people in the upper class shouldn’t be friends with people from the lower class. After my brother Nan was recognized by the Chen family, his adoptive parents wanted to go to the capital to cause trouble. He sent people to teach them a lesson, and everyone thought they deserved it.”
Yan Xin was lost in her memories. "The blacksmith's family really deserved it. Back then, I always thought that rural people who befriended rich people were just after other people's money and had no good intentions."
She had always viewed Lin Xiazhu in the same way. Chen Zisong was obsessed with Lin Xiazhu and couldn't forget her. Yan Xin never resented Chen Zisong; she only hated Lin Xiazhu, believing that Lin Xiazhu had used underhanded means to bewitch Chen Zisong.
"At that time, I was convinced that you were after the Chen family's money and wanted to marry into a wealthy family to escape the life of working for others. I was disgusted by you then, thinking that you were old and scheming, hateful and terrifying."
Alas, the past is too painful to recall.
"Looking back now, I was incredibly shallow and arrogant. I thought I was superior to everyone else. In reality, without the Yan family and my parents, I was nothing."
"Why are you saying all this? Why are you suddenly becoming so sentimental?" Lin Xiazhu found her inexplicable.
Yan Xin, however, said in a serious tone, "No, Xiao Zhu, I'm saying all this to tell you that people can change. Look at Chen Zinan, he looks down on rural people and even hates them. I'm afraid Xiao An will become like him too. You should be prepared."
“I’ve thought about all of that. Based on my understanding of Xiao An, he’s not that kind of person. But I’m not sure if he’s changed after going abroad. However, if he dares to follow Chen Zinan’s example, I’ll pretend I don’t know him and we’ll keep to ourselves from now on.”
Lin Xiazhu spoke casually, seemingly not caring at all.
“…That’s good. I was afraid you’d be sad, so I was giving you a heads-up, since you and Xiao An are such good friends.” Yan Xin watched her expression intently, as if trying to discern something.
"I'm not a child, why would I be bothered by such a small thing? Let's eat, let's stop talking about this."
Two days later, Lin Xiazhu returned to her school dormitory and found that her roommates had all changed.
Has the person been changed?
They were all unfamiliar faces, and this was how it was done? Lin Xiazhu was both amused and exasperated. She didn't know whether to be glad that those rich young ladies had finally left her sight, or to be sad that she was so disliked that all three of them had moved out of her sight at the same time, making her look like she didn't know how to behave.
The three roommates who transferred here this year are all from other foreign language departments, and judging from their clothes and appearance, they don't seem to come from well-off families. Perhaps Yan Shi and her friends think that these three are the only ones worthy of being her roommates.
Just as I was thinking this, a female classmate wearing a faded cotton-padded jacket walked over and said, "You must be Lin Xiazhu, right? Hello, my name is Lin Miao. We're quite a coincidence, we both have the surname Lin. I'm a sophomore in Foreign Languages..."
