Chapter 517: – Filler Chapter
As for now, Lin Jin was still quite satisfied with Xia Tian.
Except for that incident with Teacher Lin before...
Men really were animals who thought with their lower bodies.
Lin Jin sighed and felt helpless about Xia Tian.
The afternoon class only lasted until four o’clock. It was still early before Xia Tian got off work, so Lin Jin went over to her dad’s milk tea shop.
Back during the summer break, this milk tea shop had been pretty deserted, but now it was busy. Her dad was making milk tea and two delivery guys he had hired were sitting inside drinking water. A few students were also waiting in front of the counter for her dad’s milk tea.
Her dad’s phone kept automatically accepting orders, ringing almost every ten minutes. He looked tired with sweat covering his forehead, but he still greeted customers and employees with a cheerful smile on his face.
“Lin Jin, you're here?” Her dad handed the milk tea to the students at the counter, finally getting a bit of free time. “Class is over?”
“Yeah, I feel there’s nothing to do. Give me a cup.”
“Sure.” Her dad nodded with a smile.
Because her dad’s milk tea tasted pretty good and wasn’t expensive compared to other milk tea shops, about average price, a lot of students liked his milk tea shop. Lin Jin had even seen someone come by three times in one day, morning, noon, and evening, buying a cup each time.
After getting the milk tea her dad made, Lin Jin planned to go home and take a shower. But then she suddenly heard her dad call out to her: “Wait.”
“What?” Lin Jin turned her head to look at him.
“Come here, come here.” Her dad waved towards her.
Lin Jin frowned and walked over: “What’s up?”
Her dad came out from behind the counter, pulled Lin Jin over to the back, and asked in a low voice: “Did that kid Xia Tian do anything to you last night?”
“No.” Lin Jin’s face was expressionless.
“If he did, don’t be shy. Remember to tell him to wear a condom, just in case he has AIDS or something…” Her dad said seriously, “And also, it seems you can give birth, right? Then don’t…”
“Not listening!” Lin Jin’s face was completely red. She covered her ears with both hands and shook her head.
“What’s there to be shy about?” Her dad asked with a laugh.
Lin Jin gave him a glare, then ran off in a hurry.
Her dad scratched his head, wondering if he had scared Lin Jin off by being too blunt.
But he didn’t seem to have really said anything?
After returning home, Lin Jin expressionlessly went to take a shower. She then returned to her bedroom, laid down on her soft bed, and let out a heavy yawn.
F*ck, so sleepy.
Ever since Lin Jin met the black cat, she always felt she was getting sleepier and sleepier. Before, she could get by on just four hours of sleep a day and be fine. But now, after sleeping eight hours at night, she would still be able to sleep another two hours in the afternoon. Everyday, she basically always needed ten hours of sleep to feel energetic.
She stared at the ceiling in a daze.
Her experiences during this period felt like a dream. Sometimes, she even suspected that when she woke up, she would return to being that handsome boy back in his first year of college.
If she could choose, Lin Jin still felt it might be better now.
She softly chuckled. Back then, the only person she felt attached to in the whole world was her mom. But now, there seems to be a lot more.
Her mom, dad, little brother, boyfriend… and some friends she got along pretty well with.
“Pretty nice.”
Lin Jin sighed, pulled the quilt over her head, covered herself with the quilt, and got ready to take a nap.
This afternoon, Lin Jin slept quite soundly. She slept from 4:30 to 6:30 in the afternoon, with no annoying dreams and no one bothering her.
It was just that she slept until six o’clock. Lin Jin suspected she might be staying up late tonight.
Now that she was awake, Lin Jin changed into her regular clothes, took her keys, and leisurely walked out of the house.
It had been a while since she had eaten fried chicken sandwiches or anything like that, so Lin Jin went straight to Wallace. She ordered two set meals according to her own taste, and then sat in a corner waiting.
If nothing unexpected happened, Xia Tian should have gotten off work by now.
In about half an hour, Xia Tian would be back.
Lin Jin propped her chin on one hand, waiting for dinner while also waiting for Xia Tian to return.
About half an hour later, Lin Jin’s meals were already ready.
She grabbed the chicken sandwich takeout and walked towards Xia Tian’s rental.
However, even though it was already seven o’clock, the door of Xia Tian’s rental room was still locked shut. She knocked a few times with her hands but still heard no movement inside.
Was he working overtime?
She slightly frowned, took out the key from her pocket and opened the door.
As she expected, there really was no sign of Xia Tian inside. Her expression instantly darkened. She took out her phone and found there were no messages from him either.
Working overtime but didn’t even bother to call or send a text.
Lin Jin decided to just call him herself.
“Hello!”
“Lin Jin? I’m really busy here. I probably won’t get off until eight, so it might be eight thirty by the time I get back.”
Lin Jin heard the sounds of glasses clinking and people drinking over at Xia Tian’s side. There also seemed to be a lot of people toasting to him. There was all kinds of chatter on the other end of the call, so noisy that it was hard to hear Xia Tian clearly.
“What are you doing?” Lin Jin asked with a frown.
“There’s a company gathering over here, can’t leave. I have no choice.” Xia Tian bitterly smiled “The boss suddenly announced a gathering just as we were getting off. What could I do.”
Lin Jin speechlessly sighed, taking a glance at the chicken sandwich set for two she had in her hands…
So that meant she had to finish all this by herself?
“Don’t you at least know to send a text?” Lin Jin complained.
“I just forgot. That’s it for now, I’m really busy here.” Xia Tian really did sound like he was busy over there, busy eating.
After ending the call, Lin Jin sat down in front of the computer with a dark expression. Without hesitating, she opened up the live stream and then changed the stream title to “Xia Tian went off to feast and party. I’m at home streaming myself eating burgers.”
Motherf*cker!
With the camera turned on and aimed straight at herself, she pulled a chicken sandwich out from the bag, tore off the wrapper, and viciously bit into it.
Bitch! Making me eat two people’s share of burgers! I’ll definitely gain a kilo after eating this!
A lot of people had already entered the live stream. They took a look at the stream title, then looked at Lin Jin sitting in front of the computer treating the chicken sandwich like her enemy, and were all confused.
Then, the door that Lin Jin hadn’t locked was pushed open by Teacher Lin.
“Lin Jin, where’s your family’s Xia Tian today?” Teacher Lin casually closed the door, walked up to Lin Jin’s side, and grabbed a big chicken leg without courtesy. “Why did you start eating junk food today? And so much of it?”
“I just suddenly felt like it…” Lin Jin sighed and complained to Teacher Lin “Xia Tian went to a company gathering. I only found out after I had bought all this food.”
“No worries, I’ll help you finish it!”
Teacher Lin’s eyes lit up and she took a couple bites out of the chicken leg she just grabbed in her hand.
