Chapter 101 A Brand New Beginning
Lin Xiyin didn't really like the weather abroad.
However, after staying for almost three years, she got used to it.
She woke up in the morning to find the sun high in the sky, the temperature nearly 40 degrees Celsius, making it impossible to muster any enthusiasm for anything.
"Mommy!"
The little guy, with delicate, exquisite features, ran towards Lin Xiyin with his short legs.
Her heart softened instantly, and she knelt down to hold the little one in her arms.
Two-and-a-half-year-old Lin Youxing gave Lin Xiyin a big kiss on the cheek.
Lin Xiyin also kissed him.
"Godmother, the video..."
His pronunciation is still not very clear, and he can't speak in long sentences.
But Lin Xiyin understood what he meant.
Last night before going to bed, she promised the little one that she would video chat with Xiao Ruoyi today.
"Yiyi".
After the video call connected, Lin Xiyin greeted the other end.
Xiao Ruoyi had just finished dinner and sat lazily on the sofa: "Go away, I want to see my godson."
Lin Youxing strained to bring her little face closer, and said in a childish voice, "Godmother..."
"Hey!" Xiao Ruoyi immediately perked up: "My darling son! Did you miss your godmother?"
Xiao Ruoyi left a few days ago. She had been dealing with company matters and had stayed at Lin Xiyin's place for more than ten days.
She developed a deep mother-son relationship with Lin Youxing.
Lin Xiyin doesn't intentionally spoil children, but Xiao Ruoyi's affection for Lin Youxing can be described as doting.
Children don't understand right and wrong; they like whoever is nice to them.
Therefore, he and Xiao Ruoyi were exceptionally close.
During their video call, Lin Youxing mumbled incoherently and couldn't speak clearly, but the two still talked for more than twenty minutes.
The nanny took Lin Youxing to drink milk powder, which gave Lin Xiyin time to talk to Xiao Ruoyi alone for a few minutes.
"Are you sure you're going back to China next month?" Xiao Ruoyi asked. "Has the date been set?"
"The specific time hasn't been set yet." Lin Xiyin tucked her hair behind her ear. "I'll definitely let you know once it's set."
"They're finally coming back, and I can see my godson every day now."
Lin Xiyin was selected for that project three years ago and went abroad. Now, in the blink of an eye, the project has reached its final stage.
The final stage of experiments and trials were all conducted in the laboratories of Ocean University of China.
So Lin Xiyin is also going back to China.
"That's so good." Xiao Ruoyi sighed, "Thinking about it now, I still feel scared. If Tang Yishen's call had come half an hour later, our Youyou might not be here anymore."
Lin Youxing's nickname is Youyou.
Back then, when Lin Xiyin learned that she had been exposed to radiation, she was heartbroken and had no choice but to have an abortion.
As a result, just before going to the operating table, she received a call from Tang Yishen.
It turned out that the staff member who mistakenly turned on the radiation machine had misremembered the date.
On the day the radiation machine was running, Lin Xiyin did not go to the chemical plant at all.
Therefore, the baby in her womb can be saved.
Overjoyed, Lin Xiyin, after calming down, asked Xiao Ruoyi to tell Huo Xianyang.
Therefore, everyone assumed that Lin Xiyin ultimately underwent an abortion.
Not long after the surgery, Lin Xiyin successfully divorced Pei Muye.
She went abroad when she was four months pregnant.
Even now.
Both she and Xiao Ruoyi wanted a daughter, but they had a son instead.
The two of them, unable to dwell on their disappointment, were caught up in the chaos of being new parents.
Xiao Ruoyi stayed abroad with her for half a year before Lin Xiyin's life gradually got back on track.
However, to the two of them's relief, the little guy grew up day by day. Although his facial features were somewhat similar to Pei Muye's, he also had Lin Xiyin's shadow in him.
Therefore, his features look more delicate and beautiful; although he is a boy, he looks like a porcelain doll.
Not to mention Lin Xiyin, Xiao Ruoyi cherished him deeply.
But the little guy is good-looking, speaks in a sweet, childlike voice, and has a gentle, sweet temperament. Who wouldn't like him?
Not to mention Lin Xiyin and Xiao Ruoyi, even those who worked with Lin Xiyin all regarded Lin Youxing as their darling.
There was another person, Chi Tianlin.
After Lin Xiyin went abroad, Xiao Ruoyi stayed with her for half a year when she gave birth.
I'll come and stay for a few days when I have time later.
But Chi Tianlin was almost always there, coming over to stay for two days every week.
Knowing that Xiao Ruoyi was Lin Youxing's godmother, he curled his lip in disdain.
Then he asked to become Lin Youxing's godfather.
Xiao Ruoyi was also there, hands on her hips, glaring at him, and said fiercely, "No way! I'm the godmother! My future husband will be the godfather! Who do you think you are!"
"That's really interesting!" Chi Tianlin retorted without backing down. "If you never get married, Youyou won't have a godfather. That's so unfair!"
In the end, Xiao Ruoyi was defeated.
Chi Tianlin became the godfather.
Lin Youxing is over two years old, and many people who don't know the truth think that Chi Tianlin is Lin Xiyin's husband and the father of her child.
At first, Lin Xiyin would explain herself when she was misunderstood.
Later, I don't know what happened, but when I went out and ran into people, they stopped asking me anything.
However, she has been trying to minimize the opportunities to go out with Chi Tianlin.
After all, the two of them with the child really looked like a family of three.
Over the past two years, Lin Xiyin has also subtly mentioned this to Chi Tianlin.
But she couldn't directly say, "Don't like me."
After all, Chi Tianlin had never confessed his feelings to her.
Her statement sounds rather narcissistic.
But if she didn't tell him, she would always feel guilty that Chi Tianlin would come over by private jet every week.
But Chi Tianlin only glanced at her then, telling her not to get carried away.
He simply liked Lin Youxing.
Lin Xiyin was very puzzled.
Chi Tianlin doesn't seem like the type to like children.
Moreover, Lin Youxing is Pei Muye's child.
What exactly is Chi Tianlin's mentality that makes him so fond of his mortal enemy's son?
She simply couldn't understand it.
But it's strange, Chi Tianlin really does like Lin Youxing.
The little guy is also very affectionate towards his godfather.
That's why those who don't know the inside story think they are father and son.
Chi Tianlin was naturally aware that Lin Xiyin was going back to China.
He suddenly arrived the day before he was to return to China.
Lin Xiyin was quite surprised to see him; "It's not the weekend today, what brings you here? Is something wrong?"
Chi Tianlin was dressed in a formal suit, a stark contrast to his carefree and nonchalant demeanor when Lin Xiyin first met him.
He reached out and hugged Lin Youxing, saying, "My godson is coming back to China, how could I not come to pick him up?"
Lin Xiyin was speechless: "Didn't we agree that you would pick us up from the airport?"
"I thought about it and decided that I would feel more at ease coming in person," Chi Tianlin said. "It's my godson's first time on a plane, and I hope he'll be sitting in my plane."
Lin Xiyin had no choice but to cancel her plane ticket. The next day, thanks to Lin Youxing, she boarded Chi Tianlin's private plane.
Xiao Ruoyi waited at the airport as promised. When she saw Lin Xiyin in the distance, she waved vigorously: "Ruan Ruan!"
The two hadn't seen each other for some time, and knowing that Lin Xiyin was about to return to China, she didn't go abroad again.
She watched Lin Xiyin approach.
Before having children, Lin Xiyin had a delicate face but a somewhat aloof demeanor.
Now, she has shed her girlish naiveté and gained a touch of mature feminine charm.
It also exudes a unique radiance and tenderness belonging to motherhood.
She was so beautiful she seemed to be glowing.
Everyone who passed by, young and old, couldn't help but linger their gaze on her.
Xiao Ruoyi couldn't help but reach out and hug her: "Ruan Ruan, welcome home!"
Then she saw Chi Tianlin following behind Lin Xiyin, and Lin Youxing in his arms.
"Baby!" Xiao Ruoyi reached out her hand: "Have you missed your godmother?"
Lin Youxing, who had just gotten off the plane, looked a little listless. He reached out and hugged Xiao Ruoyi's neck, calling her "godmother" in a childish voice.
Xiao Ruoyi hugged him, ignoring everything else, turned around and left, coaxing him as she went.
Chi Tianlin took the suitcase that Lin Xiyin was pushing and then went to get the backpack she was carrying.
"I can do it myself..."
Before Lin Xiyin could finish speaking, Chi Tianlin had already forcefully taken the bag from her.
Before returning to China, Lin Xiyin asked Xiao Ruoyi to find her a suitable house.
Housing prices aren't that outrageous now. She's earned a lot of money in the past three years, so she can afford to make a down payment and then slowly pay off the mortgage.
Chi Tianlin knew she wanted to buy a house and offered to give it to her for free, but Lin Xiyin would never accept it.
Chi Tianlin said it was a gift for his godson, but Lin Xiyin said that wouldn't do.
In the end, I bought it at the employee discount price.
The apartment is fully furnished and ready to move in. Chi Tianlin has taken care of all the necessary formaldehyde removal checks and preparations.
Lin Xiyin didn't buy a very big one, 120 square meters, three bedrooms and one living room, which is enough for her and her child to live in.
Because Lin Xiyin was returning to China today, they first put their things at home, took a tour of her new house, and then went out for dinner to welcome her back.
The little guy was listless on the plane, but he's all energetic now.
When looking at houses, he kept running around, and even at restaurants, he wouldn't behave. Even though he was in a private room, he would go out to look at the fish outside.
This shop is decorated in a traditional Chinese style, with a small bridge and flowing water in the courtyard, and koi fish are also kept there.
Lin Youxing grew up abroad and rarely saw such things. He didn't know where to look, looking like a country bumpkin visiting the city.
Chi Tianlin carried him out.
"Huo Xianyang is on his way." Xiao Ruoyi put down her phone: "He's late again, unbelievable."
Lin Xiyin smiled and said, "It's been several years, it's time you gave her a proper title."
Xiao Ruoyi shrugged nonchalantly: "I quite like my current state."
She remains the same money-loving, free-spirited woman.
In recent years, Lin Xiyin has earned a lot of money through her profession and gave it to Xiao Ruoyi to help her invest.
It has multiplied several times over.
That's why they can afford to buy a house.
To reiterate, Xiao Ruoyi is great in every way, except she's like a scumbag woman who still won't give Huo Xianyang a proper title.
When she asked last time, Xiao Ruoyi said that Huo Xianyang was a casual sex partner.
friends with benefits……
Huo Xianyang spent three years trying to make a name for himself, but he still couldn't get any recognition.
I'm almost thirty years old, and I'm still just a bed warmer.
However, Lin Xiyin didn't want to interfere in their relationship. Although she didn't understand, she respected their decision.
Huo Xianyang arrived quickly and smiled when he saw Lin Xiyin: "You're finally back! Welcome back to China!"
Lin Xiyin shook hands with him: "Thank you."
Xiao Ruoyi asked him, "Have you seen my godson?"
Huo Xianyang asked in surprise, "I don't see it. Where is it?"
Xiao Ruoyi said, "Chi Tianlin took him out to see the fish."
Huo Xianyang said, "I didn't see them. Shall I go out and look for them?"
"Make a call," Lin Xiyin said, picking up her phone. "I'll make the call."
As soon as the call connected, I heard Lin Youxing crying.
