I thought Lin Can was just pretending, but once he sat down he didn't get up, his eyes only fixed on the book, truly swimming in the ocean of knowledge.
"Does he really read?"
…
Time slipped away until Lin Can set his phone to vibrate before class. He closed the book and put it back in its place. Seeing Lu Jia staring at him with a surprised expression, Lin Can walked over and said, "Good morning, Senior Sister Lu Jia."
Lu Jia touched Lin Can's forehead: "Are you okay?"
"What's the meaning?"
"You read a book?"
"...Is it rare?"
"No, why is it suddenly different from before?"
"The past is the past, and the present is now. I'm really sorry for letting Senior Sister Lu Jia give me 'lollipops' twice a while ago. Don't worry, I won't let you eat them anymore in the future. I still have to go to class, so I'm leaving now."
Lin Can is polite.
“???” Lu Jia stayed where she was.
I don’t understand why the sun rose from the west today. Has he become a good student?
You won’t give me any food from now on?
"He's pretending, he must be pretending, time will tell!"
…
Over the next few days, Lu Jia kept observing and found that Lin Can always arrived at the library to read before her every morning.
It's not just Lu Jia. Zhou Xiaoxiao, Xie Wanlian, Zijin, Chu He and other people around him have noticed that Lin Can has become a studious person. He is very serious in class and asks the teacher for advice after class. He no longer wastes his spare time. Instead, they go to the library to find him.
Everyone has been wondering if Lin Can had suffered some kind of blow.
People just want to progress.
Yang Wuluo hadn't seen Lin Can for a long time, so she called Zhou Xiaoxiao and asked, "What's Lin Can doing lately?"
Zhou Xiaoxiao: "Read and study."
Yang Wuluo: "I thought he was faking it when he said he was busy studying recently, but it turns out he's really just reading."
Zhou Xiaoxiao: "He's crazy about it. He's so rich and yet he works so hard. He's really going to crush us."
Lin Can is positive and charming.
Women like men who are ambitious.
…
Time flies, and it is mid-November in a blink of an eye.
Early in the morning, Lin Can woke up in Boqi Garden and saw through the glass that it was still snowing in the yard.
Today is the weekend and Lin Can doesn't have to go to school.
[Wanlian, it's cold at school and there's no heating. I turned on the heating at home. If you're cold at school, come to my house. I have something to do and won't be in Yunchuan this weekend.]
Lin Can simply cares about Xie Wanlian.
【where did you go?】
【I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time. I'm going back to visit.】
Lin Can drove his Bentley back to Yang'an County. He hadn't been back for a few months. The small county town was bustling with familiar sounds.
After driving to the Huimin Vegetable Market and stopping, Lin Can went to the roadside to buy a roast goose, which is one of Lin Can’s favorite Yang'an delicacies.
I smelled it and it was still as fragrant. I happily put it on the passenger seat. When I was about to leave and go home, I seemed to see something inadvertently?
I suddenly turned my head and saw a woman wearing a white tight wool sweater inside, a skirt + fleece leggings + boots on the bottom, and a tweed coat on the outside. She was bending over and picking cucumbers on the roadside.
Lin Can recognized the woman as Lin Miaomiao at a glance.
She came back as expected.
"Lin Miaomiao?"
Hearing this, Lin Miaomiao turned around, a little surprised, but quickly regained her composure and smiled sweetly.
"It's you." Lin Can walked up to him, "Why did you come back?"
"Why can't I come back to my hometown? Okay, stop talking. Just give it to mom. Mom will buy some groceries and cook for you later."
Lin Miaomiao was really not shy. She stuffed the basket into Lin Can's arms, bent down and continued to pick cucumbers.
Being my mother and taking advantage of me?
Lin Can really wanted to slap her on the butt.
"Can you use all the cucumbers you choose?"
"you--"
Lin Miaomiao turned her head and glared at Lin Can.
Lin Can raised his head and whistled.
Lin Miaomiao threw the cucumber into the basket and walked forward with her slim waist swaying.
Lin Can followed: "Where do you live?"
Lin Miaomiao pointed to the old residential complex across the street: "Hey, the fourth floor."
"You live here?"
"That's my home, it's where my parents left it. Oh, by the way..." Lin Miaomiao turned in her high heels and pointed to the supermarket next to her. "Want to drink?"
"No, I can't drink."
"Then let's go."
"By the way, did you find your daughter?"
"No, maybe I can't find it."
Lin Miaomiao put her hands in the sleeves of her coat and kicked a small stone with her high heels.
Lin Miaomiao's home is old and dilapidated. The community is currently experiencing a serious aging problem, so an elevator was installed. The two of them went up to the fourth floor, with one elevator serving two households.
Lin Miaomiao opened the door, changed into a pair of slippers, and squatted in the shoe cabinet to look for it.
"I live alone and don't have men's slippers, so please come in wearing your shoes."
"I live alone."
"Don't listen to outsiders talking nonsense about me being a bad woman. I'm a decent woman."
She turned around, took off her woolen coat, and was left wearing only a tight wool sweater, a winter skirt, and black silk leggings.
"Uh... I didn't expect you to have such a nice figure. It's pretty good."
Lin Miaomiao rolled her eyes at Lin Can, took the basket and went to the kitchen to cook.
This is an old two-bedroom house, decorated in the style of more than 20 years ago. There is a typical wine cabinet partition between the living room and dining room, and the sofa is a red fake leather sofa that has peeled off due to age.
There are many photos of Hong Kong and Taiwan stars from 20 years ago on the wall, including Jay Chou, Jolin Tsai, JJ Lin, Stefanie Sun, etc.
Time flies really fast.
There are also several photos of Lin Miaomiao when she was a child and when she was in medical school.
Lin Can leaned in closer to take a closer look. Lin Miaomiao was seventeen years old at that time. Although the photo had faded and she was dressed very rustically twenty years ago, she was truly stunning, the kind of woman who would make you exclaim "a great beauty" at first sight.
This is not an exaggeration. You have to know that a medical school student can charm a group of rich men, so his appearance must be top-notch.
But Lin Miaomiao’s smile when she was a teenager was very similar to Xie Wanlian’s?
