Bai Youyou slept on Lin Xiao's shoulder the whole way.
Bai Youyou didn't wake up until they reached the parking lot of the Jiangcheng City Government building.
Her little face was flushed as she slept.
Lin Xiao reached out and poked the fairy-like junior's energetic cheek, and whispered, "Junior, we've arrived."
The short-haired female driver glanced deeply at the two people in the back seat through the rearview mirror.
A flicker of joy mixed with a sense of helplessness crossed his eyes, a feeling akin to the joy of seeing his daughter grow up.
She has been driving for the Bai family for almost ten years.
I've practically watched the young lady grow up.
The young lady deliberately sat in the back row so that she could sit with the young man named Lin Xiao.
For the past ten years, the young lady has never slept in the car.
But today, she pretended to fall asleep as soon as she got in the car, obviously to pretend to be asleep so that she could lean on Lin Xiao's shoulder.
Miss must like Lin Xiao.
Bai Youyou woke up groggily, wiped her mouth with her hand, and thankfully didn't drool.
She sat up straight with a blank expression and stretched out a big yawn.
"I was too excited last night to sleep."
She left with that explanation, then opened the car door and got out.
Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows.
Did he ask?
Did he not ask anything?
The nerdy junior seems to have become smarter.
As the group entered the city government building, a young woman in formal attire came to guide them.
"You must be Mr. Lin Xiao?"
"yes."
"Please come with me."
"Thank you for your trouble."
Lin Xiao and the others were led to a spacious hall.
The room was decorated with solemn ornaments, and a podium was placed in the center, where several important municipal officials were already waiting.
The deliveryman and his family also came that day.
Many media reporters also arrived at the scene.
To Lin Xiao and the others' excitement, their counselor, Teacher Zhou, and Dean Zhang of the School of Computer Science also came.
They were all sitting in the front row.
At this moment, the deliveryman and his family came to greet them.
Lin Xiao and the others gave the family friendly smiles.
"Young brother, I owe you so much for saving me that day. Otherwise, I would not have been able to die in peace."
“My wife loves me very much. If I can’t go back, she will be heartbroken.”
"And my elderly parents, they can't bear the grief of losing their child."
"These are my twin daughters, only a year and a half old. Their lives will be very difficult if they lose their father."
"You saved my life, you are the savior of my whole family."
"This is just a small token of our appreciation, please be sure to accept it. Thank you."
The deliveryman's eyes reddened as he spoke. He took an envelope from his wife's bag, stuffed it into Lin Xiao's hand, and thanked her earnestly.
His wife and parents looked at Lin Xiao with tears in their eyes and expressed their gratitude.
"Thank you, thank you!"
"Thank you so much!"
Lin Xiao felt the family's gratitude towards him and was also somewhat moved.
"Don't mention it, brother. To be honest, I'm very happy that I was able to save you."
"No need to pay the money. I heard we're getting a bonus today."
"You faced danger to save lives, while I did it for justice and kindness so that I would have no regrets."
"Your survival is the greatest reward for my saving of this life."
These words brought tears to the eyes of the eldest brother's family.
The older brother is an honest man; he insisted on giving me the money.
Lin Xiao is already a hidden multi-millionaire, so why would he accept money from his older brother?
After some back and forth, Lin Xiao finally accepted the money and then handed it over to his elder brother's twin daughters.
"Consider this a gift from me to the two children for our first meeting. No more refusing." Lin Xiao made the final decision.
The older brother and Lin Xiao added each other on WeChat, indicating that they could contact him anytime if needed.
"My name is Wen Xiong."
"My name is Lin Xiao."
The awards ceremony then officially began.
The mayor took the stage and delivered a warm speech.
The article highly commended the acts of bravery of deliveryman Wen Xiong and college student Lin Xiao, and emphasized the positive impact of their actions on society.
Then came the awards ceremony.
The mayor personally presented Wen Xiong and Lin Xiao with certificates of honor for their acts of bravery, as well as a bonus of 5,000 yuan, and shook hands with them and took photos with them.
The two gave their acceptance speeches.
After the awards ceremony, there will be a media interview session.
The entire process takes about an hour.
Counselor Zhou and Dean Zhang said a few more words of encouragement to Lin Xiao.
Old Zhang said, "Lin Xiao, you're a senior now, have you found an internship yet? Do you want me to recommend you to a large factory like Chrysanthemum?"
Bird, Aquaman, and Wei Ye were so envious they almost cried.
Is this for real?
Lin Xiao was determined not to work in a big factory and not to be a beast of burden for workers.
But thinking of his three roommates, he mentioned it casually, without much hope:
"Thank you, Dean Zhang. I've already found an internship."
"But can this opportunity be given to my roommates?"
"They are all very good."
Bird, Sea King, and Wei were startled for a moment, then quickly straightened their heads and puffed out their chests, instantly exuding the aura of humble and promising role models of contemporary college students.
Dean Zhang was taken aback.
He then burst into laughter and said, "Lin Xiao, you're a truly remarkable person!"
"Okay! What are the names of your three roommates? Go back and register them with Teacher Zhou. Each of them should submit a resume."
"I'll swallow my pride and do my best to get you two more internship opportunities."
Lin Xiao and the others: "Thank you, Dean Zhang!"
Before leaving, Teacher Zhou smiled and reminded them, "Remember to send me your resumes by 9 a.m. tomorrow at the latest."
