Seeing her dejected look, Lin Wanwan almost laughed. "Why don't you come home with me? We can take Chu Ying to the airport together tomorrow."
Zhang Lin was somewhat tempted, "Wouldn't that be inconvenient? Wouldn't it be too much of a bother?"
"Stop pretending! Didn't you hear what Uncle Li said? Lu Feng isn't home and will be back in a few days."
Zhang Lin immediately replied with a smile, "Okay, I'll go home and let you know first, then I'll go with you directly."
"Great! There are plenty of people here. How about we have barbecue and drinks tonight, and chat all night long?"
Zhou Chuying immediately raised her hand, "I agree, I can't wait."
Zhang Lin was very happy and kept chattering about what she wanted to eat that night.
Lin Wanwan didn't speak, but she kept her head turned to listen.
What they said made me secretly hopeful.
That evening, the aunt prepared everything and set up an empty room in Lin Wanwan's yard, where she placed the things for them.
“Your mom said that you young people should have a good chat on your own and not eat with her. She also told Yanyan not to worry and that she would take care of the child.”
Lin Wanwan was delighted. "Auntie, please thank my mom for me."
"This was brought over by Anyang. He said it was red wine and wanted you to try it."
“Okay, okay,” Lin Wanwan nodded repeatedly, “Please thank my brother for me.”
"You guys do it yourselves. Just tell me what you need and I'll help you."
After saying that, he closed the door and left. The room had a floor heating system, and everyone was dressed in thin clothes.
Lin Wanwan had a large rattan mat laid out on the ground.
Set up the barbecue grill, and arrange the meat and vegetables on the table next to it.
The group sat on cushions, grilling meat and drinking.
Zhang Lin and Zhou Chuying both have low alcohol tolerance.
Zhang Lin said with a slight lisp, "I used to be so envious when I found out you married a rich man. I envied you for having a pretty face, being able to live a life without worries about food and clothing, and having a car to ride in."
"Hiccup~" Zhang Lin laughed self-deprecatingly, "I feel like I've been blinded by jealousy. I forgot that you also got into this school on your own merit, and I forgot that you are an excellent person, which is why you were able to meet Lu Feng, who is just as excellent."
Zhang Lin paused for a moment, then continued, "Don't worry about me. I used to be really jealous of you. I worked hard on my own, but when I heard you speak English, German, and French, I felt really ashamed. What gave me the courage to be jealous of you?"
"What are you saying? Haven't we been working hard together all along? I'm just one step ahead of you. You guys are just a little slower than me. Maybe you'll be even more outstanding and capable than me in the future."
"Look, you are not only excellent, but also humble. You are so likable that I really can't bring myself to hate you at all. I am also very fortunate to study with you. I am really becoming better and better, becoming the person I like, instead of becoming the person I dislike, full of jealousy and resentment. I am not like that, and I am very happy."
Zhou Chuying climbed up from the mat, raising her hand high, "Yes, yes, I can't hate you at all. You're already so excellent, yet you still work hard. You even help us work hard together. You help us face our shortcomings and improve little by little. You don't know how happy my dad was when I helped him land a foreign client."
"Isn't that great? We can all get better together and cheer each other on."
"You're the youngest, and not only are you good at studying, but you're also so good at making money. Who are you going to piss off?"
“I work with Zheng Yan’s husband. He does most of the work. I’m just a little bit clever.”
"Tell me, if we weren't familiar with you, your words would have made us furious."
Zhang Lin hiccuped again. "I feel so dizzy. How can you be so calm?"
"How do you know I'm calm? Maybe I'm just pretending."
Zhou Chuying, who was sitting next to her, poked her waist with her hand.
Lin Wanwan was immediately startled, "What are you doing?"
“I know you’re ticklish, today we’re going to settle our score,” he said, then winked at Zhang Lin.
Zhang Lin understood immediately and directly reached for Lin Wanwan's waist.
Lin Wanwan tried to run away, but Zhou Chuying pinned her to the ground. "Trying to run? Let's see where you can run to."
"Ahhhhhh! Help me!!!"
Zhang Lin grinned lewdly, "Go ahead and scream, scream all you want, no one will save you even if you scream your lungs out."
Lin Wanwan kept struggling, "Why should I be called 'Broken Throat'? Who is 'Broken Throat'?"
The three of them were stunned for a moment before they reacted and burst into laughter.
"Hahahahaha..."
It took Zhang Lin a while to recover. "My stomach hurts from laughing. You have to pay for my medical expenses."
"Why should I? You tickled me, bullied me, and now you want me to pay you back? Is there no justice in this world? Be careful, or I'll sue you for extortion."
Zhou Chuying shook her head and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, this top student, you really put your knowledge to practical use."
"Of course, learning is always useful."
Zheng Yan looked at her with red eyes, "Thank you, Wanwan."
"What? You guys bullied me just now, and now you want to play the sympathy card? Let me tell you, I'm not buying it. When school starts next semester, you'll treat me to stir-fry. Each of you will treat me to a meal."
Zheng Yan, who was about to shed tears, was now amused by her.
“I originally thought that it would be difficult to see my husband and children for the next four years. I also thought that staying in Beijing would be very difficult. Now, our family is not only reunited, but we also have a house.”
Lin Wanwan immediately interrupted her, "Then you should thank your husband. It's all thanks to him, the result of his hard work."
Zheng Yan smiled and said, "Anyway, we are very grateful to you. Our whole family is very grateful to you."
"Okay, okay, I got it. I'll have your husband keep up the good work. My fortune depends on him."
We drank and ate meat, chatting until late into the night.
The group was already drunk and staggering, but they kept drinking. Lin Wanwan couldn't take it anymore and got up to go back to her room.
Without even washing up, I just collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep.
Before going to sleep, I was still thinking, I hope Zhou Chuying won't miss her train tomorrow.
It turns out we really missed out.
When Zhou Chuying woke up, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
When she woke up and checked the time, it was already one o'clock, and she immediately screamed.
Ahh ...
Zhou Chuying and Zheng Yan were startled awake and sat up to ask, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Chuying almost burst into tears, "It's 1 PM now, I missed the train!!!"
Lin Wanwan, holding a bag of strawberries, kicked the door open. "Stop yelling, you're scaring my son."
Zhou Chuying looked at her with a long face. She had been drinking and grilling meat last night, her hair was still oily, and her face was swollen. She was simply unbearable to look at.
"Stop yelling. I've found someone to buy you a train ticket. It's for 10 a.m. the day after tomorrow. Go with Uncle Li to the train station later and see if you can get a refund."
Zhou Chuying immediately hugged her, saying, "Wanwan, you're such an angel."
Lin Wanwan pushed her away in disgust, "Go away, go away, you stink! Go take a shower and stop yelling like that, you scared my son to tears."
