What started as a serious family meeting eventually devolved into a lighthearted banter.
They chatted about this and that until late at night before going back to their rooms to prepare for sleep.
Xia Wenxi memorized a few definitions before going to bed, and then fell asleep peacefully with the beautiful vision of pursuing a master's and doctoral degree.
I woke up naturally the next day, grabbed my phone and saw it was 7:55.
It happened exactly five minutes before the alarm went off.
During this time, Xia Wenxi scrolled through her playlist trying to change her alarm clock. A song that she used to like had gradually become "unbearable to hear" after being used as her alarm clock for a long time. Sometimes when she switched to that song while listening to music, it would give her a jolt.
So Xia Wenxi spent a long time searching and finally chose the song she hated the most as her alarm clock.
At exactly eight o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock I had just set went off right on time.
"It's really annoying." Xia Wenxi muttered and immediately pressed the close button.
The next second, a new WeChat message popped up.
Lin Shen: [Good morning, Wenxi.]
Lin Shen: [I slept well last night, thank you for the hypnotic gift]
Xia Wenxi immediately realized that Lin Shen had discovered the little Easter egg she had left at the end of the recording last night.
She sat up and replied: [Congratulations, Mr. Lin, on discovering the little Easter egg I left!]
Lin Shen: [With this Easter egg, I'll have a good night's sleep every day from now on.]
Xia Wenxi thought for a moment, then told Lin Shen, "I've already talked to my parents and Xia Wensheng, and they all support my decision, so you can rest assured!"
Lin Shen did indeed breathe a sigh of relief.
I'm going to visit my uncle and aunt in a few days.
This matter has not been completely resolved yet.
After the surgery, Lin Shu-yu was very unhappy, perhaps because he felt that his "masculinity" had been damaged.
Lin Yu hasn't gone to work these past few days and has been staying in Lin Shuyu's hospital room every day, the father and son acting like fighting cocks.
Lin Yu said that Lin Shuyu was an old lewd and morally corrupt man, while Lin Shuyu retorted that they were sons controlling their fathers, which was contrary to the principles of the Heavenly Gang.
They not only cursed Lin Yu, but also all three of his sons.
Fortunately, we were staying in VIP rooms, so we didn't have to worry about disturbing others.
...
Xia Wenxi and Lin Shen were not the type of people who had time to chat after getting up. After exchanging a few words, they went to wash up in good spirits.
After washing up, I went downstairs for breakfast as usual before heading to the study room.
For a period of time, she didn't eat breakfast at home but instead chose to buy breakfast from an egg pancake stall near the study room.
Then one day, she accidentally let Aunt Li find out about it... and suddenly she felt like she wasn't just going out to eat, but to steal... you know.
The very next day, Xia Wenxi enjoyed a deluxe version of egg pancakes made by Aunt Li at home, and from then on, she said goodbye to breakfast outside.
As luck would have it, Aunt Li was making egg pancakes today, and juice plus a double-egg egg pancake was her breakfast.
When they were halfway through their meal, Xia Wensheng arrived at the restaurant. He had been chatting so late the night before that he had just fallen asleep there.
I'm about to get up, have breakfast, and go to work.
"Aunt Li, give me a guanbing (a type of flatbread) too."
Xia Wensheng called out from outside the kitchen and then went to the bar counter to make himself a cup of coffee.
"You're quite diligent, getting up so early?"
"When have I ever not been diligent?!"
Xia Wenxi was displeased when she heard this; she had been working diligently for months.
"If you pass the exam, I'll give you a reward. Think about what you want in advance."
Upon hearing this, Xia Wenxi retorted, "Anything you want?"
"Sure, as long as I can give it to you."
"Since you're so arrogant, then give me all your shares."
Xia Wenxi was joking, but Xia Wensheng went along with it and said, "No problem. By the way, I'll give you the chairman's position too. I'll go be my Huanhuan's assistant."
"..."
Forget it, if we keep talking, she won't be able to finish her egg pancake.
Where are Mom and Dad? Why aren't they up yet?
Just as Xia Wenxi was about to say that she didn't know either, Aunt Li, who was bringing breakfast to Xia Wensheng, overheard and replied, "The master and mistress went out early this morning, saying they were going to take a walk in the park."
"It's so great not having to go to work!"
Xia Wensheng has a big mouth and eats quickly. Even though she arrived later than Xia Wensheng, she finished eating earlier.
"Eat quickly, I'll give you a ride to the study room on my way."
Xia Wenxi had something in her mouth and couldn't speak, so she shook her head. After swallowing, she said, "You go by yourself, I'll ride my bike."
She wasn't lying when she said she gained weight; you can't hide fat.
However, she doesn't have much time to exercise now, so she can only ride her bike more while the weather is still warm.
"OK."
Xia Wensheng didn't say anything when she refused, and left quickly, so quickly that her words of seeing her off seemed like mere politeness.
After Xia Wensheng went to work, Xia Wenxi saw that it was getting late, so she quickly finished her pancake in a few bites, drank the remaining half cup of juice, and went to study with her beloved little schoolbag on her back.
A while ago, she was quite anxious, afraid that she would fail the exam, and she found it difficult to calm her mind when she was memorizing.
But after returning from the farm, her anxious mood changed and she became much calmer.
Instead of wasting time being anxious, you'd be better off reading a book.
This kind of life, with both money and leisure, was something she never dared to dream of before.
At noon, Xia Wenxi and Lin Shen shared each other's lunch.
Xia Wenxi ordered takeout for lunch: spicy hot pot... It's not something she particularly likes, but eating takeout behind Aunt Li's back still has a unique kind of excitement!
Xia Wenxi had never realized she had such a unique hobby; she was indeed someone who couldn't escape "low-class tastes."
While thinking, Xia Wenxi stuffed a piece of fragrant potato into her mouth.
I was a bit busy this morning, so Liang Yi brought lunch to Lin Shen.
This time, before he could even leave and close the door, he saw the president taking pictures again, smiling broadly.
He quietly closed the door and immediately returned to his office, taking a locked notebook from a drawer.
Upon opening the title page, six large characters were prominently displayed!
"Assistant Survival Guide"
Liang Yi turned the notebook to the middle and picked up his pen to write down his thoughts on the day.
"The CEO is in love, the object of his affection is unknown, but he's head over heels for her. I heard from a friend in a group chat that men in love are terrifying, but a CEO in love is twice as terrifying!"
The next task is:
1. Pay close attention to the CEO's emotions at all times;
2. Find out more about the CEO's girlfriend, just in case;
3. Learn as many foreign languages as possible.
Just before leaving get off work, Lin Yu sent a message to Lin Shen, saying that Lin Shuyu suddenly wanted to see everyone and asked him to go directly to the hospital after get off work.
Lin Zhan and Lin Ji also received the same message.
At 7 p.m., the four of them gathered in the ward. Lin Shuyu leaned against the hospital bed and looked up at his four children.
At this moment, his hair was gray and his face was covered with wrinkles, clearly indicating that he was an old man.
