Chapter 436 Xu Xinran is here
The next morning, Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen took Lu Jingyuan back to the city. They first sent Lu Jingyuan to school and then returned home.
Lu Jingshen changed his clothes and went to work. Lin Xiaoxia tidied up at home. She had classes in the evening, so she had nothing to do in the morning, so she went to the bath center to take a look. The construction there was completed, and the interior soft decoration had begun.
The bath center is scheduled to open on October 1st, and holidays are more suitable for the opening of such entertainment venues.
After a walk around, Lin Xiaoxia returned home around noon.
At noon, Lu Jingshen came back with a young girl.
Lu Jingshen entered the room and introduced Lin Xiaoxia, "Xiaoxia, this is my mentor's daughter, Xu Xinran. A foreign designer was recently giving a lecture at their school, so the interns only came today. I brought her over to introduce herself."
Xu Xinran's permed hair was tied into a high ponytail, and the two large red hoop earrings were very exaggerated. The turmeric tight top and flared pants were also in line with the current fashion trend. The makeup was very obvious, which was completely different from the professor's daughter that Lin Xiaoxia had imagined before.
Xu Xinran came in and greeted Lin Xiaoxia warmly, "Hello, sister-in-law. Sorry to bother you."
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "You're welcome. Jing Shen told me that your family took good care of him in the past. Coming here is like coming to your own home. Order whatever you want." Then she took out a pair of new slippers for her.
Xu Xinran nodded: "Thank you, sister-in-law." Then he changed his shoes, walked into the house, and looked around.
Lin Xiaoxia said to Lu Jingshen, "You sit with Xinran for a while. I'll go wash some fruit. Why didn't you call me in advance to let me know so I could prepare in advance?"
Lu Jingshen said, "They arrived near noon, and I only knew they were coming when I saw them. Wife, don't bother, let's go out for dinner, and I'll bring Xinran here to introduce herself to the place."
Lin Xiaoxia said, "Okay, then you pour Xinran a glass of water. I'll go change my clothes and then we'll go out for dinner."
Lu Jingshen poured water for Xu Xinran and said, "Order whatever you want. Just let me know if you need anything."
Xu Xinran said, "Thank you, Brother Shen. I'm sorry to bother you." Then he added, "Your house is really well designed. Your taste is as good as always."
Lu Jingshen said, "This wasn't designed by me. It was designed by your sister-in-law. She doesn't have the same taste as me."
Xu Xinran asked in disbelief, "No way, sister-in-law has learned it?"
Lu Jingshen said proudly: "Your sister-in-law is very talented, which is something that most of us can't even envy."
While they were talking, Lin Xiaoxia changed into a gray plaid mid-length dress with a black waist belt. She had her hair done up in a bun, looking fresh, clean, and elegant. "What does Xinran like to eat?"
Xu Xinran said, "I don't care. I can eat anything." Then, looking at Lin Xiaoxia's clothes, he said, "Sister-in-law's clothes are really beautiful."
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "I'd like to make one for you in a few days."
Xu Xinran said without hesitation: "Then I would like to thank my sister-in-law first. I won't be polite with you."
Lin Xiaoxia said: "You're welcome, let's go eat."
Lu Jingshen said: "Yes, let's go out and talk while eating."
Lin Xiaoxia took Xu Xinran out first, Lu Jingshen locked the door at the back, and went downstairs together.
When I got downstairs, I didn’t walk far. I found a quiet place to sit down in a familiar restaurant nearby.
Lu Jingshen naturally sat on one side with his wife, then handed the menu to Xu Xinran: "Xinran, you order."
Xu Xinran pushed the menu back and said, "I don't have any dietary restrictions. Brother Shen and sister-in-law, please order."
Lin Xiaoxia said, "How about we order the restaurant's signature dish?"
Lu Jingshen said, "Okay, they have some good dishes." After that, he called the waiter and ordered four signature dishes and three bottles of soda.
Lin Xiaoxia poured tea for everyone, then looked at Xu Xinran and said, "Your unit is close to home. If there is anything that is inconvenient for you to find Jing Shen, just come to me." As a girl, it would be convenient for her to find herself if anything happened.
Xu Xinran nodded, then smiled and said directly to Lin Xiaoxia: "Sister-in-law, can I ask you for a favor?"
Lin Xiaoxia said, "Tell me about it." She never agreed to something casually. After all, she had to see what it was about.
Xu Xinran asked, "Sister-in-law, can I live in your house?"
Without waiting for Lin Xiaoxia to refuse, Lu Jingshen said, "Our house is not convenient. We only have one bathroom and the space is not big. If you think the dormitory conditions are not good, then I can rent a house for you nearby."
Xu Xinran said with an embarrassed look on her face, "I'm not disgusted by the poor dormitory conditions. I'm just afraid. You think I'm carefree and outgoing, but I'm actually very timid. Most of the bathrooms in the dormitories are at the end of the corridor, and I don't dare go there alone at night. If I rent a house, I'll be even more afraid to go there alone. So I'd rather live in the dormitory."
Lin Xiaoxia thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we rent a house for you and bring a classmate to live with you?"
Xu Xinran still shook her head: "No, there are four of us here in total. If two of us stay out, that wouldn't be special. Let's not do that. If I stay at your house and say I'm staying with relatives, they won't be able to say anything. It's different when renting a house."
Lin Xiaoxia was a little confused about what to say, but she really didn't like outsiders living in her house.
Lu Jingshen said, "This problem is easy to solve. There are a few single rooms with bathrooms in the dormitory. After the family building is divided here, there will be a lot of empty dormitories over there. I will coordinate with the dormitory manager and let you stay in the single room."
Lin Xiaoxia heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what Lu Jingshen said. If other people's families didn't make arrangements when they arrived, then it would be her responsibility as well.
She said, "We have a new quilt at home. I'll move over there once I've finished packing. I'll buy some daily necessities this afternoon and send them to you in the evening."
Xu Xinran said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Lin Xiaoxia said, "You're welcome. It's just a piece of cake." She breathed a sigh of relief when the matter was resolved.
While they were talking, the waiter came to serve the food and they dropped the topic.
After eating for a while, Xu Xinran looked at Lin Xiaoxia and said, "Sister-in-law looks really young. I thought Brother Shen was a calm person and would marry a more mature wife. I didn't expect that sister-in-law is about the same age as me."
Lin Xiaoxia said: "The depth of field is not that big, there is not much difference in age between us."
Lu Jingshen said: "Although my wife is young, she is calm and composed, very similar to me."
Xu Xinran said, "I envy my sister-in-law, a woman who is independent in everything. Unlike me, I have been spoiled by my family since I was a child and I don't know anything."
Lin Xiaoxia said: "If you don't know how to do it, you can learn. No one is born with the ability."
Xu Xinran said, "I've tried, but I just can't get it right. Maybe I'm just too stupid."
To be honest, Lin Xiaoxia couldn't tell whether Xu Xinran was being modest or had some other intentions.
She could only say: "Learn slowly, you will eventually learn it."
