"Drive slower!"

Ms. Ren hurriedly reminded.

"I'm already going pretty slow, only just over forty."

"Then drop it to just over thirty!"

"Alright, I've slowed down."

Xu Lin casually said, "You know, those motorcycle guys drive at over a hundred, and they seem pretty carefree, disappearing in the blink of an eye."

"My colleague's aunt's cousin's son rode a motorcycle, and his wife left him."

"That's really tragic!"

"Because he got smashed up!"

"That's even worse!"

Xu Lin took a sharp breath. If a man's thing is shattered, that's serious! Forget the wife leaving him, even he might not be able to take it and end up thinking of suicide.

Ms. Ren continued, "And what's more, his family owns two rental buildings, truly unfortunate!"

"That's like tragedy upon tragedy!"

Xu Lin took another sharp breath: the wife left, there are two rental buildings at home, meaning they're not short of money. But without the male symbol, what's the point of having more money?

Ren Yan then advised, "So don't drive too fast, and definitely don't buy a motorbike!"

"I'm just saying."

Xu Lin drove at a speed just over thirty, all the way from the suburbs back to the city.

"You're too naughty, I usually worry a lot!"

Ms. Ren continued, "Sometimes I wonder if you were a daughter, would you be a little more obedient?"

"Then should I change my gender?"

"Cut it out!"

Ms. Ren continued, "Actually, when you were young, I wanted to have another child, I wanted a daughter then, hoping to have both a son and a daughter."

"Then why didn't you have one back then? I actually also wanted a sister."

"Frequent fights with your dad, lost interest."

Talking about having a daughter, Ms. Ren felt a tinge of regret. She did want a second child before, but it didn't happen.

"Oh."

Xu Lin didn't say much, both of them had issues. It wasn't just one person's problem. After a lot of arguing, even though there were no fundamental mistakes, the frequent quarrels deteriorated their relationship, and they ended up divorced.

"So I think one has to be cautious about marriage."

"Ms. Ren, remember your words, don't rush me into marriage when I'm of age."

"We'll see!"

More than half an hour later, Xu Lin drove past a mall.

"Mom, let's go in and buy a box of mooncakes!"

"Why buy mooncakes? We don't eat mooncakes." Ms. Ren was surprised.

"For Yanyan's family, I also brought a box when I visited Lei Haolong's place a few days ago."

"Hmm, that works too."

The two of them bought a box of mooncakes at the mall before heading back.

When Xu Lin drove to the entrance of the neighborhood, it just so happened that Yu Xinyan and her mother Lin Yajing were coming out.

"Auntie, long time no see, and you've become even more beautiful!"

Xu Lin greeted Lin Yajing first. They may live in the same neighborhood, but the last time Xu Lin saw Lin Yajing was around the college entrance exam, four months ago when she was sending Yu Xinyan to the exam venue.

"Xu Lin, your mouth is still as sweet as ever!"

Lin Yajing smiled.

At this point, Xu Lin originally wanted to give the mooncakes to them, but since they were just heading out, it would be somewhat impolite to give them now.

Maybe later.

Lin Yajing looked at Ren Yan and said, "Yan, did you just arrive in Jiangzhou today?"

"Took the high-speed train back this afternoon."

Ms. Ren said while getting out of the car, and the two women started chatting and laughing there.

Yu Xinyan also greeted Ms. Ren warmly, saying hello.

"Yanyan is so well-behaved!"

Ms. Ren's eyes turned into crescents.

"Mom, I'm heading back first."

Xu Lin said to Ms. Ren.

"Then off you go, I'll chat with your auntie."

The two women hadn't seen each other for months, and once they ran into each other, there was a lot to talk about.

Xu Lin casually said goodbye to Yu Xinyan, then drove downstairs to park and went upstairs home.

Ms. Ren only returned home about twenty minutes later.

As soon as she entered, Ms. Ren couldn't help but say, "Haven't seen Yanyan in months, and she seems to have gotten prettier!"

"No way, hasn't she always looked like that?"

"You see her often, so of course not!"

Ms. Ren glared at Xu Lin, placing her things down in the hallway and taking off her shoes.

"Do you and Yanyan have a future together?"

Ms. Ren couldn't resist asking, thinking that both families knew each other well, Yu Xinyan was exceptionally kind, with great character, personality, looks, and everything. Where else could you find such a good girl?

Xu Lin: "I don't know."

"But she's studying at Jiangdu University now. I asked just now, Yanyan is in a very prestigious college there, with a famous national top professor as her mentor. She has a promising future, and her dad is a high official."

Ms. Ren thought for a moment: "Honestly, I think you don't match up to her."

"You've seen right through it!"

"So can you work a little harder? Strive in college, and aim to enter a big company directly after graduation, earning a million by the time you're thirty?"

"I'll start a business by then, and aim for at least over a hundred million annually, just earning a million, do you look down on your son?"

"Cut it out! You're teasing me again!"

"Moreover, by then, I'll buy you an estate in Jiangdu, estates cost at least a few billion as a base, surely a million a year won't cut it? Can't even afford a bathroom with that!"

"Let's change the topic, listening to this makes me blush, fortunate there's no third person here."

Ren Yan said, "I don't even know if I'll live in a villa in this lifetime!"

After a pause, she continued, "But if there's a villa, I'd want a big courtyard. Xu Lin, don't laugh at me, I actually want to raise some chickens and grow some flowers and plants in the yard... Ideally, you'd have two or three kids when you marry, and I'd help with the kids..."

"Xu Lin, are you listening to me?"
