Chapter 85 Happy Birthday, Son!



Lin Xiao was in a great mood after enjoying a delicious meal and felt quite grateful to Meng Fanxue.

After all, truly delicious food is not something you can have every day.

After bidding farewell to Snow Dance Manor, Lin Xiao happily took a taxi back to Jiang University.

My three roommates went to their internships for a day and have now returned.

Lin Xiao asked them curiously how they felt about their internship.

The Sea King sighed softly, "It's a big factory. But when we first arrived, we were doing odd jobs, running errands, serving tea and water."

Wei Ye said, "There's an internship salary, five thousand yuan, that's not a small amount. I've heard that many people only get three thousand yuan as an internship salary."

Bird adjusted his glasses. "I think it's alright. It's just that I can't play games anymore. But I should cheer up. Otherwise, I'll be unemployed after graduation. My family isn't rich, and my parents aren't going to keep sponging me off. I still have to rely on myself."

Lin Xiao chuckled, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes.

He will never have the chance to experience life in a big company.

I wonder if this life choice will leave me with regrets.

But to hell with it.

Once you've chosen the path you want to take, just try your best to make it the right choice.

As long as you can make money, you don't necessarily have to follow the path that most people take.

After all, if too many people leave, you won't make a lot of money.

He earns in one hour what many people earn in a year.

According to this calculation, he only needs to work for three weeks to earn the salary of an average person for a lifetime.

Why feel regret?

There's nothing to regret.

Not working and living a life of leisure is the life that all working-class people truly yearn for.

Don't put the cart before the horse.

Having figured this out, Lin Xiao calmly began to paint.

His inspiration for today's painting came from the scene of his walk with Montaigne in the afternoon.

In the distance, the sky was ablaze with crimson clouds.

On a wide, open meadow, there was a phoenix tree in full bloom, and the meadow was covered with vibrant pansies.

A beautiful woman with a graceful figure sat on the grass, hugging her knees and enjoying the breeze.

A chubby corgi was chasing butterflies beside me.

That night, the sound of exclamations echoed through dormitory 808 once again.

The following Tuesday.

Lin Xiao arrived at room 901 of the Youth Education Apartment right on time.

Sang Ting was also there this time.

Sang Ting and Bai Youyou were discussing something.

When Lin Xiao arrived, Sang Ting waved her chubby little hands and greeted him warmly.

"Hey, Lin Xiao. Long time no see, you've gotten even more handsome."

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Hello, junior Sang Ting. Didn't we just meet last Friday? I want to become handsome in three days, unless I get cosmetic surgery. But even cosmetic surgery might not have such obvious results, right?"

Sang Ting laughed heartily, blushing slightly.

Bai Youyou's dark, bright eyes kept smiling as she looked at Lin Xiao, without calling out to him, just smiling.

Lin Xiao seemed to have gotten used to the way the two interacted and didn't feel that anything was wrong.

"What are you talking about? Just now?" Lin Xiao asked as he strode over, having changed into his slippers.

Bai Youyou then said softly, "I want to weave the initials of my senior's name on the scarf, but I don't know how to weave it to make it look the best."

Sang Ting interjected, "Senior Lin Xiao, I suggested that Youyou use a clever trick: sew this dark blue yarn onto the scarf with a needle. But she insisted it looked ugly."

Lin Xiao looked at the scarf that was almost finished and pondered for a moment.

He went into the study, took out a piece of paper, a ruler and a pen, asked how many stitches were in the scarf, and then drew squares on the coffee table.

Draw the initials of the name you want to knit, LX, on graph paper and mark the lines with crosses.

Bai Youyou's eyes lit up, and she slapped her forehead, saying, "How come I didn't think of that! With the weaving pattern, I'm sure I can weave a neat initials for my name!"

“When you get to this point, switch to dark blue yarn,” Lin Xiao said with a smile. “It would be best to use a different stitch for a more refined effect.”

Bai Youyou nodded emphatically and said obediently, "I know! Don't worry, senior! I promise to complete the mission!"

Lin Xiao smiled, his eyes filled with tenderness.

Lin Xiao and Sang Ting cooked lunch together.

A simple meal consisting of two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and a soup.

The three of them ate together with great relish.

Sang Ting patted her round belly and said coquettishly, "Youyou, you are so lucky! You get to eat Lin Xiao's cooking every day!"

Bai Youyou smiled sweetly.

After a moment of silence, the nerdy junior suddenly said sadly, "But senior will be graduating next June."

Lin Xiao chuckled and said reproachfully, "Junior, do I look like a chef who's supposed to cook for people? I don't want to cook every day, okay?"

Sang Tingting smiled slyly.

"Yes, Youyou. Don't be greedy and want more!"

"With your cooking skills, it's good enough to eat occasionally!"

"As for eating out often, you need to build a good relationship with your senior so I can mooch meals off him."

Bai Youyou pursed her lips, looking at Lin Xiao thoughtfully.

Lin Xiao quickly stood up and interrupted, "Junior Sister Sang Ting, don't corrupt Junior Sister Bai!"

"Youyou, it's your turn to wash the dishes!"

As if she had heard some celestial music, Bai Youyou's eyes lit up, and she gave a crisp "oh" before helping to clear the dishes.

That night, Lin Xiao brushed his teeth and went to bed at 11 p.m., fell asleep in three seconds.

As a result, he was woken up at midnight by three unruly roommates who surrounded his bed and shouted "Happy Birthday" in unison.

Lin Xiao was taken aback.

He sat up, paused for a moment, and the anger from being woken up dissipated, replaced by a warm feeling of gratitude flowing through his heart.

"Okay. Thank you! I'll treat everyone to dinner tomorrow night," Lin Xiao said with a smile.

Bird Bro said, "No, no, no. The three of us will treat you to dinner tomorrow."

Aquaman and Wei Ye nodded vigorously, "We'll go ahead."

Lin Xiao laughed and said, "You haven't even received your internship salary yet, and you're already treating me to dinner?"

Aquaman waved his hand dismissively, "Don't worry, Godfather. I haven't spent all my living expenses for this month. I have money."

The lights were turned off, and the dormitory became quiet.

Lin Xiao thought for a moment and decided that he could treat everyone to karaoke tomorrow. It was the last year, and the fine tradition of dormitory 808 couldn't be abandoned.

Before you knew it, it was Wednesday, October 10th.

As soon as Lin Xiao got up, he checked his phone.

I received nine messages of blessings.

Besides his seven clients, the other two came from his aunt and Feng Bairan respectively.

Feng Bairan said, "Son, happy birthday! Over the years, I haven't fulfilled my responsibility to raise you. I'm sorry."

"However, from now on, Dad will make up for everything you've never received since you were little."

"Dad knows you might find it hard to accept our father-son relationship right now. That's okay, take it slow."

"Son, today is your 21st birthday. Dad is giving you a dark blue Maserati Levante. I'm sure you'll love it."

"The car will be driven to your school by the 4S store salesperson this morning. Please remember to sign for it."
