The two chatted for another ten minutes.

Xu Lin went to bed relatively early tonight.

The next morning.

Ms. Ren gave him a red envelope.

Not sure if it's the same custom elsewhere, but at Xu Lin's grandparent's place in Eastern Guangdong Province, they say that in the Guangdong and Guangxi regions, when children are about to travel far, parents and elders would give them a red envelope, wishing them safety, health, and academic success.

Xu Lin opened the red envelope and looked, "Why is there only a hundred bucks?"

Ms. Ren glared at him, "A gift of a goose feather from afar, it's the thought that counts!"

Xu Lin chuckled, "Just joking!"

At nine in the morning, Xu Lin rode his scooter to drop Ms. Ren at the high-speed train station.

It's already the 7th today, those who need to work go to work, those who need to study go to school.

Ms. Ren also needed to return to the provincial capital.

"Message me when you reach the provincial capital."

Xu Lin escorted her into the waiting hall.

Mom also reminded him, "Remember to drive carefully, not too fast!"

"Got it, love you, Ms. Ren!"

"Baby, I love you too!"

Ms. Ren smiled slightly.

Xu Lin shivered on the spot, goosebumps rising.

"You brat, are you disliking your mom?"

"No!"

Xu Lin grinned, waved his hand, "Ms. Ren, I'm leaving first."

"Be careful driving!"

"Ok."

A mother's worry for a child traveling far, Ms. Ren watched as Xu Lin disappeared from the entrance of the waiting hall.

In fact, Xu Lin quickly got lost in the crowd; many are taking the high-speed train today, soon you couldn't see him anymore.

On his way back, Xu Lin maintained a speed of just over forty, neither fast nor slow.

Just past ten, Xu Lin got back home.

The high-speed train Xu Lin is taking is at 12:30, he needs to be at the station by 12.

At this time, Yu Xinyan and Yu Jianhua returned.

At around 11, Yu Xinyan sent Xu Lin a message.

On the way to the high-speed train station, Xu Lin rode in the car with Yu Xinyan's mom.

Seeing Yu Xinyan's message, Xu Lin put on his backpack, went downstairs, and quickly arrived beside the mother and daughter standing next to a Volkswagen.

"Xu Lin, over here!"

"Coming!"

Xu Lin stepped forward to greet Lin Yajing, "Hi, auntie!"

"Xu Lin, has your mom gone back to the provincial capital?"

"I took her to the high-speed train station this morning."

"Okay, okay, get in the car!"

Then, everyone got into the car.

Lei Haolong wasn't with them this time, but the three were going together; it was just that Lei Haolong's mom sent him to the high-speed train station.

Outside the high-speed train station.

"Yanyan, when you get to Jiangdu, make sure to call mom, okay?"

"Got it, mom!"

Yu Xinyan nodded earnestly.

Lin Yajing waved to Xu Lin again.

"Xu Lin, it's Yanyan's first time living alone outside, take care of her, okay? I'm not sure if she'll adjust well, this girl is quite shy." Lin Yajing said worriedly.

"Don't worry, auntie, I will."

Xu Lin said, "And I noticed she also gets along well with a few roommates."

"Thank you, Xu Lin."

Xu Lin nodded.

Soon, Lin Yajing left.

"Xu Lin, what did my mom say to you?"

Yu Xinyan asked nervously.

"She asked me to take care of you, and if you ever need anything, just let me know."

"Oh, I can take care of myself too!"

Yu Xinyan was quite happy.

"Xu Lin, do you want an egg yolk?"

"What egg yolk?"

Xu Lin thought Yu Xinyan brought a cooked egg, but upon looking back, he realized it was a yolk mooncake.

It turned out Yu Xinyan took out a small yolk mooncake.

She had already broken it in half.

Yu Xinyan said, "This side with the yolk is for you! You like egg yolk the most!"

"Then I'll eat it?"

"Go ahead!"

Yu Xinyan looked at him.

Xu Lin doesn't outright refuse mooncakes; if it's a yolk mooncake, he'll have a bit, especially the yolk inside.

Yu Xinyan knew Xu Lin loved this.

The half of the yolk mooncake with yolk took Xu Lin two bites to finish; it's very sweet, even sweeter than the yolk itself.

So, Xu Lin had to buy a bottle of cola from the convenience store.

"You should eat less of stuff that's too sweet,"

Xu Lin said when he returned.

Yu Xinyan nodded, "I know!"

"Xu Lin, Lei Haolong is here!"

Yu Xinyan pointed to Lei Haolong, who had a bulging backpack and was carrying a bag of things, looking travel-worn.

Xu Lin noticed the newly short-haired Lei Haolong, "Why the buzz cut? What happened to the long style?"

"My dad said the long style looked bad, my mom also called it a bowl cut, even my grandparents didn't like it."

Lei Haolong felt down, touching his short hair, "So they gave me a buzz cut!"

Xu Lin assessed him, "You've got a bit of a military feel now; it actually looks quite good; maybe the buzz cut suits you!"

"Xu Lin, let's be honest, do I really look good?"

Actually, Lei Haolong also thought he looked good with a buzz cut; he used to not realize it, nor dared to try it, but after doing it once, he found himself increasingly handsome.

"Babe, do you think it looks good?"

"I think it looks great, the previous style was a bit messy, now it's much cleaner."

Yu Xinyan blinked.

"Yu Xinyan, hearing you say that, I know I'm handsome!"

Lei Haolong was almost moved to tears. He patted Xu Lin on the shoulder, "Good buddy, join me in getting a buzz cut!"

"No way, a buzz cut would make me look like a prisoner."

"Damn, Xu Lin, you're such a jerk!"

"Hahaha..."

Yu Xinyan laughed, her laughter was pleasant to hear.

Soon, the three of them got in the car, with Xu Lin and Yu Xinyan sitting together and Lei Haolong right behind them.

Two hours later, the high-speed train arrived safely in Jiangdu.

After another half an hour on the subway, the three of them arrived at Jiangdu University.
