CHAPTER 444: CHAPTER 99: THE END OF THE 1ST SEMESTER OF FRESHMAN YEAR, HEADING TO NING YUHUAN’S HOME_4

"Honey, how many clothes are you taking?"

"Just one outfit is enough for me."

"Then I’ll put one outfit inside."

"Okay."

While Ning Yuhuan was packing, Xu Lin was in the room turning on the computer.

Three days had passed, and Xu Lin hadn’t been keeping track of Xie Ting’s news these past few days. He didn’t know how the song was doing.

He opened QQ Music and clicked on the charts, only to see that several of the charts were topped by Xie Ting’s song.

"Looks like it’s doing well!" Xu Lin was quite pleased.

His current goal was to build his reputation as a golden brand, ensuring that any song he, Mr. Xu, produced was bound to be a masterpiece.

If he succeeded in making a name for himself, Xu Lin would have a continuous stream of wealth in the future, including status in the music world.

After thinking it over, Xu Lin logged into his work account.

He forwarded the disciple group to Xie Ting.

Xie Ting replied instantly: "Master, you’re finally online!"

Xie Ting: "Master, what is this?"

Xu Lin: "It’s a group of disciples I set up earlier, five people in total. You can join and chat with them occasionally. You can also answer questions now and then."

Xie Ting: "Got it!"

Xie Ting: "Master, my song is really popular right now!"

Xu Lin: "Stay calm, it’s just one song. Without ten or eight hit songs, you can’t even hold a concert."

"Right, that’s true!"

Thinking of those stars who hold concerts, don’t they all have a lot of songs? They can sing for two or three hours straight.

Meanwhile, Xie Ting also joined the group.

Xu Lin announced in the group: "This is your eldest senior brother!"

The group consisted of five people: Yun Hehe, Li Xiaoxiao, Ying Xiao, Jin Zheng, and Jiang Chengzi.

With Xu Lin introducing and Xie Ting joining, everyone started greeting their eldest senior brother.

As for the subsequent chat among them, Xu Lin didn’t pay any more attention.

"Senior sister, are you done packing?"

"Finished!"

"Then come up for a bit!"

"Why?"

Ning Yuhuan was puzzled, thinking Xu Lin wanted her to do something.

But as soon as she came in, Xu Lin pulled her into his arms, and only then did Ning Yuhuan realize what was happening.

"We’re taking you home tomorrow, and it might not be convenient afterward. The next time we sleep together will be next semester, so we should make the most of tonight!"

"Always thinking about these things?"

Ning Yuhuan replied in mock anger, but she still took off her clothes willingly. Thinking about it, the next time they’d be together would be next semester.

Starting around ten, it wasn’t until two in the morning that Ning Yuhuan was exhausted by Xu Lin.

After taking a bath, she quickly fell into a deep sleep.

They had to get up early the next day, so they couldn’t stay up too late tonight.

The next morning was still bright and sunny.

After a simple breakfast, Xu Lin and Ning Yuhuan got back in the car at 8:30.

"Seatbelt!"

"Done!"

Ning Yuhuan said.

"Sit tight, I’m starting to drive."

"Okay!"

Driving from Jiangdu to Ning Yuhuan’s small county in Eastern Guangdong Province was not a short distance, about more than 1,500 kilometers.

Driving would take around sixteen to seventeen hours.

Actually, flying would be the best option for this distance.

But since Xu Lin had already decided to drive, then driving it was.

The car set off around 8:30 and didn’t reach Guang Mansion until a little past nine at night.

Most people wouldn’t be able to handle driving for that long.

Xu Lin, however, was fine.

"Let’s book a room and stay here for the night; we’ll head out for your county home tomorrow."

"Honey, are you tired?"

"We’ve been together for so long, do you think my condition would tire me?"

"You’re incorrigible!" Ning Yuhuan glared at him, knowing he was making suggestive comments again.

Xu Lin found a big hotel to stay in.

They decided to have dinner at the hotel, as Xu Lin, even though he said he wasn’t tired, was physically exhausted from driving all day and didn’t feel like going out.

After eating their fill, the two returned to their hotel suite.

Ning Yuhuan felt sorry for Xu Lin after a long day of driving and even helped Xu Lin bathe voluntarily, which he happily accepted as an emperor-level treatment.

Finally, the two of them fell asleep.

The time reached the next morning.

After breakfast, Xu Lin continued driving.

He looked over and saw that it took over two hours to drive from Guang Mansion to Ning Yuhuan’s county home.

It was indeed not close.

"Is anyone home at your county house?"

"My parents and younger siblings are all there. Dad still has work, but mom is on holiday."

Ning Yuhuan’s mom is a primary school teacher, who is on holiday at this time, while her dad is a repair worker who still has a lot of tasks.

"Are your younger siblings on holiday yet?"

Ning Yuhuan’s younger siblings are still in kindergarten.

"They are!"

Which makes sense, since kindergarten would have been on holiday early, as would primary school.

Only for middle and high school is the academic pressure heavier.

"Oh, let’s buy some gifts first."

"Oh, we don’t need to buy gifts; it’s too extravagant."

"How can we arrive empty-handed?" Xu Lin insisted they must bring gifts.

"Alright then."

Then Xu Lin went to a big shopping mall.

The gifts for Ning Yuhuan’s parents were simple, just clothes and shoes.

While the gifts for Ning Yuhuan’s younger brother and sister were a bit more complicated since boys and girls have different tastes.

For the boys?

Xu Lin bought toy cars, Gundam models, Ultraman figurines, and Saiyan figures, among other things.

For the girls?

Xu Lin bought plush dolls and other types of dolls.

Additionally, he got ten sets of clothes each for the two children, ranging from winter to slightly warmer weather clothes. They didn’t have any summer clothes this time; otherwise, Xu Lin would have bought them too.

Aside from these, there were snacks.

No child can resist snacks.

"Didn’t we buy too much stuff? And it’s quite expensive." Ning Yuhuan couldn’t persuade Xu Lin otherwise.

In fact, all the things Xu Lin bought added up to just over twenty thousand. Gundam toys alone cost several hundred per set, and Xu Lin bought ten sets.

"It’s alright, it’s not worth much money."

Xu Lin smiled and said, "Let’s go; let’s try to reach the county town by two in the afternoon."
