"Xu Lin, did my dad give you a hard time?"

"No, why would he make it difficult for me?"

"That's good!"

Yu Xinyan breathed a sigh of relief.

After chatting for a while, Xu Lin went back to his work.

Meanwhile.

As Yu Jianhua returned home, it was already eleven o'clock at night.

Yu Jianhua didn't watch TV but turned off the lights and went back to his room.

"That kid is going to earn over six hundred thousand next month."

Yu Jianhua couldn't help but mention to his wife.

"So much?"

Lin Yajing was quite surprised.

Yu Jianhua nodded: "He's quite capable in writing, earning a lot. I just chatted with him for a while."

"What do you think about it?"

"I don't think much, just let it be."

What Yu Jianhua meant by letting it be was about his daughter and Xu Lin.

In fact, Yu Jianhua didn't think much of Xu Lin before; he seemed to be just drifting by, not very reliable. Maybe it was because he was young, naturally immature, but now he seemed much better in comparison.

Yu Jianhua was actually wavering, thinking he could agree to Xu Lin being with his daughter.

However, Yu Jianhua still advocated for letting things take their natural course.

With a guy like Xu Lin, if he met another girl in college, he might get swept away.

"Having a precious daughter is not easy; you always have to worry about this and that!"

Yu Jianhua was a little helpless.

On the other side, Xu Lin, after getting the grammar book, delved into study mode.

Tomorrow and tomorrow, how many tomorrows are there?

My life waits for tomorrow, everything will turn into regret.

So Xu Lin didn't procrastinate until the next day.

The grammar book from Yu Xinyan was the same size as an elementary school Chinese book, but over four centimeters thick.

There was so much content!

Flipping through the grammar book, there were all sorts of explanations and sentence constructions densely packed, giving Xu Lin a headache.

But Xu Lin now had the extraordinary memory buff, so this was nothing.

Just memorize it, and later digest it in the brain.

Time: exactly eleven o'clock at night.

Xu Lin rubbed his hands and started seriously memorizing, flipping through the 550-page grammar book page by page, staying on each page for about 5 seconds, because 5 seconds was enough for him to memorize the content including punctuation.

The total time was 2750 seconds, which was roughly 46 minutes.

But there were definitely pauses, Xu Lin couldn't keep his eyes fixed on the book continuously, so he started at eleven and went until past one in the morning, over two hours, and finally memorized the whole grammar book.

At that moment, Xu Lin's brain was running at high speed, beginning to digest the contents.

After about half an hour.

[Task: English? It's easy!]

[Task progress: Vocabulary mastery (completed), Grammar mastery (completed)]

"The second progress is out, so my exploration path is not wrong."

"Next up, it's time for speaking."

Xu Lin struck while the iron was hot and didn't plan to sleep.

His health was good, pulling an all-nighter was nothing, he could exert himself intensely.

Time: two o'clock in the morning.

Replenishing energy.

[Energy (93/100): Spirit invigorated, full of vigor.]

Xu Lin remembered hearing from his English teacher that to learn English speaking, he should watch some English speeches, or directly watch American dramas. At that time, the English teacher recommended an American drama, which Xu Lin remembered seemed to be called "Desperate Housewives"?

He opened the browser to search, but looking at the theme, Xu Lin found it boring, just about a group of women's trivial post-marriage life.

How could a grown man like Xu Lin possibly be interested in such a series?

"Forget it, I'll look for some speech videos instead!"

There were still many speeches by foreigners online, just a search away.

Xu Lin specifically picked those by famous figures to watch.

After over three hours, Xu Lin had gone through twenty-three speech videos.

With the help of the extraordinary memory buff, he could remember these famous speeches, though having only watched them once, Xu Lin didn't recall them very clearly, but had generally memorized them, and after twenty-three videos, Xu Lin was able to speak some English.

In the domestic context, the vast majority learned mute English; during their school days, their English scores might have been good, but when it came to speaking, they were at a loss.

Xu Lin was a typical case of mute English.

However, with Xu Lin's gradual breakthroughs in vocabulary, grammar, and speaking, he was now able to speak English.

But Xu Lin felt that his speaking skills were average, not yet meeting the "mastery" level progress requirement.

Time: after five in the morning.

"I could nail speaking in the next few days, no need to rush!"

Xu Lin's enthusiasm waned.

Plus, watching speech videos was really boring, with various famous people telling you how to be a person, how to strive, how to persist, how to focus, and so on, just pouring various positive energy concepts into you. Xu Lin found it boring, but forced himself to watch. Xu Lin wouldn't get fired up by these positive energy concepts.

At this point, Xu Lin stretched, washed his face, and went to bed.

Bzzz bzzz…

After ten in the morning.

Xu Lin's phone vibrated.

He opened his eyes, glanced at it, and answered the call.

"Xu Lin, aren't you up yet?"

"Just woke up."

"I'm at your door!"

Xu Lin got up to open the door, and it was Yu Xinyan who had arrived.

She came in, made herself at home like it was her own place, took off her shoes, and walked around barefoot.

Xu Lin's place had wooden floors, with the balcony windows sealed, and he usually kept it clean, so there wasn't even dust on the floor, very clean.

After a while, Yu Xinyan finally sat on the sofa, with her legs crossed.
