Zhang Lin nodded in agreement, "That's true, but you should still be careful. You don't know how many rumors are circulating about you outside, even though it's only been a short time since the start of the semester."
Lin Wanwan was speechless, and with an exaggerated wailing expression, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "If I did something wrong, the law will punish me, instead of letting these people spread lies about me and ruin my reputation."
Lin Wanwan clutched her chest and continued weakly with an exaggerated expression, "I, Lin Wanwan, have a clean reputation, but today I am going to be ruined by them. Now I can only use a white silk ribbon to prove my innocence."
"Hahahaha..."
The four of them turned around to look at the person behind them. Zhou Chuying asked with a fierce expression, "Who are you? Why are you eavesdropping on our conversation?"
Lin Wanwan looked at him warily, "Who are you?"
The boy behind immediately raised his hands and said, "It's a misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding. I was just passing by. I was going to the stir-fry window and just happened to hear you talking."
Lin Wanwan sized him up. He was quite handsome, with double eyelids, a tall stature, and long eyelashes. He grinned, and she felt that his face looked somewhat familiar.
"Little sister, you don't remember me, do you?"
Lin Wanwan looked at the person staring at her and asked, pointing at herself with a puzzled expression, "Are you talking to me?"
"I'm Qin Mu's friend. We've met several times. I didn't even recognize you when I saw you just now. You look different than before."
Lin Wanwan thought for a long time, then widened her eyes and asked, "Little Linzi?" No wonder he looked so familiar just now.
Mu Lin lowered his head and chuckled, "I'm actually a year older than you, so it's not too much for you to call me 'brother,' is it?"
Lin Wanwan shook her head and clicked her tongue while circling around him, looking him up and down. "Little Lin, you've really made something of yourself! So handsome, are you out of your mind?"
Mu Lin looked at her amusedly, "Is he handsome?"
Lin Wanwan stood in front of him and praised him without reservation, "He's so tall and handsome."
"I feel like you've changed. I remember we met a year ago."
Lin Wanwan held up her finger. "Two years, handsome guy, your memory doesn't seem to be very good."
Mu Lin still smiled, glancing behind Lin Wanwan, "Your roommate?"
Zheng Yan stepped forward to greet her, "Hello, Zheng Yan, Wanwan's roommate."
After exchanging greetings, Lin Wanwan pulled Mu Lin aside and said, "You should treat us to a meal as compensation for making fun of me earlier."
"Order whatever you like, it's on me."
Lin Wanwan nodded in satisfaction, "You haven't changed at all in terms of generosity, I can vouch for that."
Mu Lin smiled happily, then, as if remembering something, suddenly asked, "I heard you got married?"
"Yeah, I don't know where you went for the past two years. I asked Brother Qin Mu to look for you, but he said he couldn't find you either. I haven't even asked you yet, where did you go for the past two years?! There's been no news at all."
When Mu Lin heard that she was really married, he lowered his head with a little disappointment and tidied up the tableware for her. "She went with my mother to see my grandfather. Don't you know about my mother's situation?"
"Then why didn't you say anything? I couldn't find you at all," Lin Wanwan wasn't lying; she had indeed looked for Mu Lin when she first transmigrated.
In the original story, Mu Lin was the one who stayed by his side until the very end. Even when she was disappointed in him later, she still returned from Hong Kong to collect her body after receiving the news, giving her a final moment of dignity.
What she thought at the time was that if she couldn't marry Lu Feng, at least Mu Lin would still be there for her, not just a backup plan. Lin Wanwan wanted to maintain their friendship.
But when they contacted Qin Mu, he said he didn't know where Qin Mu had gone either. Later, they went to his house, but his father was always busy and they couldn't find him.
Lin Wanwan sighed, "I even went to your house to wait for your dad, but I didn't see him for several days. Your dad must be too busy."
When Mu Lin heard her say that, his eyes lit up, but he lowered them again after a while. "You know my dad has always been like this. Since the country allowed private businesses, he's been even busier. My mom and I can't even catch him, let alone you."
The people at the table weren't familiar with him, so they just kept bragging about the food and listened to the two of them reminisce.
Zhang Lin's eyes darted back and forth between the two of them, and soon she felt as if she had discovered a huge secret.
Lin Wanwan ate a piece of braised pork without skin that Mu Lin had picked up for her, smiled and said, "It's been two years, but you haven't forgotten me at all. You still remember that I like to eat braised pork without the skin."
Mu Lin just smiled and didn't respond. He wasn't a talkative person to begin with. When he was a child, he was the most introverted among a group of people playing together.
Lin Wanwan was spoiled and domineering since childhood. When she saw others bullying her and she couldn't beat them, she would cry and run to complain.
So Mu Lin has loved following her since he was a child. In the past, Qin Mu, him, and Lin Wanwan were the three closest to each other. Lin Wanwan loved to stick to Qin Mu because Qin Mu was older and doted on her the most. He loved to stick to Lin Wanwan, so the three of them were always together.
Later, when he grew a little older, Qin Mu was almost ten years older than him, and he still liked to go to Qin Mu, his older brother.
"Has your grandfather been found?"
Mu Lin snapped out of his thoughts and replied, "Yes, we finally found it this time, in Hong Kong."
Lin Wanwan's eyes lit up, genuinely happy for him. "Really? Then you won't have to follow Auntie around anymore. How is Auntie's health?"
Mu Lin's mother is a bit obsessed. After being separated from her father, she has been searching for him for many years. Not only does she search for him herself, but she also takes Mu Lin with her. Mu Lin is only a few years old and has been taken around everywhere.
One year, Mu Linhai was almost abducted by human traffickers, which frightened her father so much that they had a big argument.
Mu Lin nodded. "Finding Grandpa is more effective than any magic pill. She stayed in Hong Kong for medical treatment and will be back soon."
"Then remember to tell me, and I'll go check on Auntie."
Mu Lin smiled and nodded, "How are you? I haven't asked you yet."
"That's how it is, young marriage, and she's pregnant."
When Mu Lin heard that she was pregnant, he couldn't hide the sadness on his face.
Seeing this, Zhang Lin urged, "Eat quickly, eat quickly, there's a class meeting later."
Lin Wanwan then remembered that she had something to do later.
"I was so busy catching up with you that I forgot I had something to do later," Lin Wanwan said, taking out her notebook. "Write down your contact information for me."
Then he wrote down his contact information, "Is that clear enough? Remember to come find me, or you're really dead. If you dare to leave without saying goodbye again, you'd better watch out."
After finishing their meal, the group rushed to the classroom, arriving just in time, only to find a strange man standing on the podium.
The group exchanged glances, and one of them found a seat and sat down.
The person on stage glanced at his watch, and only spoke when it was time to go, "Time's up, is everyone here? I'll take attendance now."
After taking attendance, he slowly introduced himself, "I am your new counselor, Jiang Cheng. Our previous teacher, Teacher Li, has been transferred to another place, and I will be in charge of you now. I just took attendance and got to know you all a bit. I hope we can get along well in the future."
