After the college entrance examination, life began to follow one's heart

Chapter 204 Xu Lin's Second Novel
The two left the school library at 8 p.m. on Friday.

Xu Lin drove the electric car tonight.

Actually, the senior student's favorite ride was Xu Lin's electric scooter.

In mid-March, the weather warmed up, and you could wear short sleeves during the day. Riding an electric scooter also allowed you to enjoy the breeze, which was quite refreshing.

Moreover, compared to the luxury of Xu Lin's Panamera, sitting in it actually felt a bit uncomfortable.

She could even hold Xu Lin while riding the electric scooter.

Ning Yuhan felt completely satisfied.

Unlike most girls who, when they get into a Panamera, inevitably take photos and post them on social media, or show them off to their inner circle to satisfy their vanity.

But my senior isn't that kind of girl.

"Honey, what would you like to eat? It's my treat tonight!"

Overjoyed, Ning Yuhan said she would treat everyone to a big meal, though of course, the "big meal" she was talking about couldn't compare to the "big meal" Xu Lin knew.

For Ning Yuhan, a few hundred yuan is a feast.

"Pickled fish, the one we ate at last time."

"Let's go eat pickled fish!"

"Okay, hold on tight!"

"Sit down!"

Ning Yuhan shifted her position, hugged Xu Lin tightly, and pressed herself close to him.

An electric scooter sped through the night, eventually arriving at a large shopping mall. The two then entered a sauerkraut fish restaurant and began to enjoy a hearty meal.

After eating and drinking enough.

Xu Lin followed Ning Yuhan to the cashier.

"Hello, B13, check out, how much is it?"

Xu Lin tapped the table with his finger, making the waiter realize what was happening.

"Oh, please wait a moment."

"Hello, the total is 323 yuan!"

"Can I use coupons here? I saw they're available on Meituan."

Ning Yuhan showed the page on a certain group to the waiter.

"Yes, you can use six coupons here!"

Then Ning Yuhan bought six coupons, each costing 45 yuan to offset 50 yuan, so the total cost for all six was 270 yuan. Adding the remaining 23 yuan, the total came to 293 yuan.

"Honey, we saved 30 in total!"

Ning Yuhan was quite happy to save 30 yuan after leaving the sauerkraut fish restaurant.

"Only 30? This store is a bit stingy."

Xu Lin said, "Look, a coupon only saves 5 yuan. On the surface, it's a benefit for us consumers, but in reality, the restaurant makes a lot of money. Just now, a plate of pickled fish cost almost 200 yuan, but the amount of fish in it wasn't even enough for two fish. The cost wouldn't exceed 50 yuan. If you ask me, it would be fine if a coupon saved at least 10 yuan. This is too stingy."

"But as long as we enjoy our meal, that's all that matters! And it was quite delicious!"

Ning Yuhan held Xu Lin's left hand. "30 yuan can buy two cups of milk tea. Honey, what would you like to drink?"

"Let's go check out Nayuki and buy a fruit tea."

"Okay, let's go buy fruit tea!"

Nayuki was on the first floor, so the two of them took the stairs down.

They were eating on the fourth floor. The third and second floors are where various clothing or other goods are sold.

"Have you been using this backpack for several years?"

Xu Lin touched Ning Yuhan's backpack.

"Back in my first year of high school!"

"You're already a sophomore now, so it'll be at least four years already, right?"

"No, it's been more than three years!"

"That's quite a long time ago, no wonder I said it looked old, and it probably wasn't expensive when I bought it."

"88 yuan!"

"so cheap?"

Xu Lin was surprised.

Ning Yuhan: "But it's very durable. Look, I've been carrying it for more than three years."

"Well, you're doing this because you take good care of it. If it were me, it would probably rot in less than a semester."

Xu Lin pointed to a backpack store across the street, "Let's go take a look at backpacks and get you a new one."

Ning Yuhan guessed that Xu Lin was going to buy her something very expensive again, "My backpack isn't even broken yet."

"Clothes don't have to be worn out before we buy new ones. Let's get a new backpack; this one is too old and doesn't look good."

Xu Lin put his arm around her waist and led her over, saying, "Just listen to me."

"Then don't buy anything too expensive."

"Don't worry, how expensive can a backpack be?"

"But the backpacks here are so expensive..."

After entering the store, Ning Yuhan glanced at the price tags on several backpacks, all starting at a thousand yuan. Ning Yuhan began to consider leaving.

"How about we go somewhere else?"

"This place is fine. Besides, it's already 10 p.m., where else would we go?"

Xu Lin made the decision: "Listen to me, let's go back after we buy the backpack."

Finally, Xu Lin smiled mischievously and whispered, "If you think it's too expensive, just serve me well tonight."

The senior student immediately glared at Xu Lin.

"Just pick one that costs a little over a thousand, it's not that expensive."

Xu Lin gently patted her back.

"OK then."

Ning Yuhan finally chose a white backpack, which looked great and was versatile enough to match any outfit, and it suited her well.

The price is 1299, then there's an 8.5% discount, so the final price is 1104.15.

"How about saving over a hundred?"

“But the schoolbag costs over a thousand!” Ning Yuhan emphasized.

"I'm not short of money, and what's the point of making money? It's about using money to buy things that make you happy. Happiness is very important."

Xu Lin asked her, "Are you happy?"

"I'm happy with anything you give me!"

Ning Yuhan added, "But it can't be too expensive, otherwise I'll feel uncomfortable holding something too valuable."

The two have different spending habits. Ning Yuhan is a thrifty and hardworking girl with a rich inner world and sound values. Money, a worldly thing, cannot corrupt her.

Xu Lin stopped dwelling on the topic and said, "Let's go home."

A little after 11 o'clock, the two returned to the duplex.

"Honey, what's this?"

When she arrived at her doorstep, Ning Yuhan saw a large roll of something on the ground in front of her house. She wrapped it up, but didn't know what it was.

“We’ve laid carpets in the living room and bedrooms.”

Xu Lin had originally planned to install a whole-house carpet, but it was a bit inconvenient to handle.

So he only put a full carpet in the room, and also put a large carpet in the living room on the first floor.

"Then let's move in together!"

Ning Yuhan opened the door first. Xu Lin could easily lift the heavy carpet weighing dozens of kilograms by himself, but Ning Yuhan wanted to help, so Xu Lin simply lifted it with her.

Laying a carpet is very simple, and there aren't many things in the house, so it's very convenient. Just spread out the carpet, and you might need to move the stools and tables a little.

The carpets in the living room and bedroom were quickly put on by the two of them working together.

"There's a smell, I'm going to open the window!"

Ning Yuhan snorted and went to open the window.

These newly manufactured carpets have a strange, strong smell.

Ning Yuhan immediately turned on the air purifier in the room.

On the other side, Xu Lin sat down in front of the computer and turned it on.

The six of them, including Nicholas Tse, will release their new song at 10 PM tonight.

This is their second song release.

Xu Lin still needs to keep an eye on things.

After logging into his work account, Xu Lin saw their respective private message reports.

However, only a little over an hour has passed, so it doesn't necessarily mean much.

However, they are now somewhat famous new singers. Xie Ting, for example, started out much earlier than Yun Hehe and the other five, so he has a stronger fan base.

Yun Hehe and her group of five released their second song, and it immediately garnered tens of thousands of fans' support.

For example, Yun Hehe's new song has already surpassed 200,000 plays in just one hour and twenty minutes.

This is clearly a very good start. Xie Ting is naturally in the best position, with viewership already exceeding 500,000.

The other four also have at least 100,000 views, which is quite good overall.

Xu Lin chatted with everyone in the group for a while.

After leaving the small group chat, Xu Lin opened the message that Xue Zhiqian had sent him that morning.

Xu Lin clicked on it and saw that it was Xue Zhiqian saying that he would be having a concert at Jiangdu Gymnasium on Tuesday night.

Ask Xu Lin if he wants to go.

Moreover, Xue Zhiqian even sent Xu Lin concert tickets.

Two still.

"These are great front-row seats, and Mr. Xu, you can bring one person too. I saw on your Xiaohongshu that you have a girlfriend? So you can bring her along. (Sunglasses.jpg)"

Xu Lin then turned to look at the senior student who was sitting on the bed folding his clothes.

Ning Yuhan had her back to her and was carefully folding clothes.

Xu Lin almost exclaimed: With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?

"Senior!"

"what happened?"

"Going to a concert on Tuesday, wanna go? Oh right, it's Xue Zhiqian's concert."

Xue Zhiqian is very famous, so Ning Yuhan certainly knows this celebrity.

"Will the tickets be very expensive?"

Although Ning Yuhan had never been to a concert, Liu Yuqing and the other two in the dormitory had all been to concerts and would often discuss concert tickets. Some big stars' tickets, which cost a few hundred yuan, could be resold for thousands or even more.

“We don’t need to spend any money. And look, Xue Zhiqian gave me two tickets. We’ll have lunch on Tuesday afternoon and then go straight to the concert.”

Xu Lin called her over and showed her pictures of two tickets.

"Oh!"

"He gave it to you?"

Ning Yuhan was surprised, and then she saw the contact name of the person who chatted with Xu Lin: Xue Zhiqian.

She then remembered that Xu Lin was now incredibly powerful and knew many influential people, including celebrities who were unattainable for ordinary people, yet they still addressed him politely as Mr. Xu.

“I wrote a song for him before, and he even gave me two tickets to the concert in Jiangdu with very good seats.”

"Besides, it's a waste not to go. Let's treat it like going to the library, the amusement park, or hiking, as a simple trip or a life experience."

"Then let's go to the concert!"

Ning Yuhan then thought of a post she had saved: "One Hundred Things You Should Do with Your Boyfriend When You're Dating".

"Going to a concert together" is one of those things.

"That's right."

"Senior, come up here!"

Xu Lin pulled her onto his lap and made her sit down.

Therefore, Ning Yuhan was in a higher position, and Xu Lin's face naturally buried deep in her chest.

Xu Lin finally let go after more than ten seconds.

"I'm a little envious of our future children!"

"why?"

A question mark appeared in Ning Yuhan's mind.

"Because our child won't go hungry. After all, Mom is so big. I feel like we could have twins or even a boy and a girl without any problem. You see, the child definitely won't go hungry."

"Pooh!"

Ning Yuhan then understood what Xu Lin meant, and couldn't help but blush a little.

I've been with Xu Lin for half a year now, starting last September, and it's already mid-March.

As a result, Ning Yuhan was subjected to various methods and tricks from Xu Lin.

As a result, she developed a bit more.

"Honey, it's past eleven, when should we go to sleep?"

"Sleep? What? You want to do 'that' with your husband?"

Xu Lin grinned mischievously and teased the other person's delicate nose.

"I mean a proper night's sleep!"

Ning Yuhan made a cute angry face.

"What's the rush? Actually, I suddenly feel like doing something."

"What are you doing?"

Ning Yuhan thought Xu Lin was thinking about that kind of thing.

"It's just about documenting life."

On a whim, Xu Lin opened Word. "Actually, I'm a little itchy to write something."

"Write what?"

"It's just about writing about the two of us. Of course, art comes from life but transcends it, so I'll polish it a bit."

Xu Lin said, "I'll just write a novella to record this."

Words are the most magical and powerful thing in the world, capable of carrying any human emotion.

Soon, Xu Lin typed out the title, or rather, the book title.

Me and my senior.

Unpretentious.

Synopsis: This is a story about me and my girlfriend, a senior from my university.

There's nothing fancy or fancy about it.

But only famous authors can do this.

Xu Lin didn't use the male and female leads' real names this time either.

Male lead: Xu Ning.

Female lead: Ning Yuhan.

As Xu Lin prepared to type, his thoughts began to flow freely.

Ning Yuhan sat on his lap, leaning against him, her eyes glued to the lines of text and scenes that kept appearing on the screen.

Xu Lin's keyboard is a mechanical keyboard specifically designed for gaming, and it makes a very loud clattering sound when you type.

At this moment, the sound of rapid typing was incessant, and Xu Lin's hands were dazzling as he typed.

Ning Yuhan was surprised by Xu Lin's amazing creativity. Although she had seen him before and had experienced his super learning ability in the library, she couldn't help but feel unsettled seeing him create on the spot without pausing.

In fact, Xu Lin's behavior often made Ning Yuhan feel quite inferior. She always felt that no matter what she did, she could never catch up with him, which was truly despairing.

Xu Lin didn't know what Ning Yuhan was thinking.

He was focused on his work, and Ning Yuhan didn't disturb him; she just sat obediently on his lap.

Before we knew it, more than four hours had passed.

Xu Lin's story this time is not long, it's a novella, so it only has a little over 90,000 words.

Don't be fooled by the fact that it's only 90,000 words; the content is already quite rich. Gu Long's "Chu Liuxiang" has a total of eight series, ranging from less than 100,000 words to less than 200,000 words.

Moreover, with Xu Lin's embellishment of his writing, this story is rich in meaning and worth savoring.

"It's done."

Xu Lin stretched his hands. Typing continuously for more than four hours without stopping was something only someone with Xu Lin's physical fitness could endure.

"Are you sleepy?"

Xu Lin asked Ning Yuhan in his arms, sniffed her hair, and breathed in the fragrance of her hair that filled the air.

"I'm not sleepy." Ning Yuhan shook her head, she had been watching Xu Lin type the whole time.

“I’ll post this story on my author account, ‘Mr. Xu,’ as a way of recording our lives, okay?”

"Okay!"

Ning Yuhan is also looking forward to it.

Actually, this is a very romantic thing, equivalent to Xu Lin telling Ning Yuhan: I want you to participate in my life and be the leading lady in my life.

Young girls often have romantic fantasies, but they are just beginning to experience love and are not as mature and rational as women in their twenties or thirties. As for older women, their relationships with men are often reduced to physical attraction or monetary exchange.

But young girls are different; their youth is incredibly radiant, like a night sky filled with twinkling stars.

"Then I'll post it online and see how netizens react."

"Uh-huh!"

Xu Lin's approach to releasing his new novel was simple and direct: he just had his classmate, Xiao Xu, release it all at once.

However, this is still in the stage of creating a new book, and there is no one to review it in the middle of the night.

After the new book was created, Xu Lin sent a message to Ranzhi.

He'll see the message tomorrow and will naturally approve it.
