Fearing that Chu Lin would drown in the vinegar vat, Lin Mingfei and Xu Qing didn't even plan to eat when they had an appointment with Xu Qing about the office.

The place of conversation was set in a teahouse, decorated with a bit of classical charm, and the people who came and went were all social people.

The box is semi-enclosed, and the light is very bright. Through the small window, you can see the artificial hills and green bamboos outside, but the sound is not transmitted, which is very suitable for business conversations.

When Lin Mingfei arrived, Xu Qing was already waiting. Seeing him push the door in, Xu Qing stood up and shook hands with him.

Xu Qing is a few years older than him. Although he graduated only a few years ago, he is dressed in a suit and leather shoes, which is quite elite.

He looks a little handsome, and with this expensive clothes, he is also a man who can make a group of young girls feel happy.

But it was still a little worse than Chu Lin. Lin Mingfei looked at him, thinking that he should also buy some suits for Chu Lin.

Chu Lin was tall and had long legs, so she would definitely look good in this outfit.

Lin Mingfei imagined that look, and his heart was even more excited.

Xu Qing skillfully poured him a cup of tea: "The environment here is elegant. After a client asked me to come here for a talk, I have made appointments with everyone here. It is comfortable to sit, and it is pleasant to look out of the window."

Lin Mingfei sipped his tea and said with a smile, "I've kept you waiting for a long time. This is my first time here, and it took me a while to find a place."

"Where is it?" Xu Qing raised his brows and eyes slightly, "You came just in time, it's my habit to arrive early."

After a few polite words, the two gradually got to the point and started talking about business.

Xu Qing really cared a little about Lin Mingfei, a junior. Professor Jiang was full of praise for him. Xu Qing knew that his mentor was always strict, and this was the first time he heard him praise someone in so many years. Xin; secondly, the last time I had a quick meeting at dinner, when a group of schoolboys were sitting together that day, Xu Qing saw Lin Mingfei at first sight.

At that time, he was lowering his head and talking to the people next to him, with a rather careless expression on his face, his beautiful eyebrows and eyes shimmering under the light, almost all eyes in the room were focused on him.

Xu Qing couldn't describe the feeling of that glance, but felt that the aura essence of the world seemed to be concentrated on this person.

Later, when introducing him, Xu Qing paid special attention to it, only to realize that he was Lin Mingfei, the proud disciple that Professor Jiang was full of praise for.

Xu Qing successfully got Lin Mingfei's contact information from Professor Jiang, and after some testing on WeChat, he had to admit that Lin Mingfei's professional level is indeed excellent. From all aspects, Xu Qing liked this excellent junior very much.

After talking about the business, Xu Qing saw that Lin Mingfei's cup had run out, raised his hand to refill his tea, pretended to be casual and asked about the photo in Moments: "The photo you posted earlier, that person looks pretty Handsome... is he also Beihua's junior?"

Lin Mingfei replied, "No, he is from Tsinghua University, majoring in finance."

"Department of Finance." Xu Qing was thoughtful, "That is one of Tsinghua University's signature majors, not for ordinary people to get in. He has already worked? The top students from the Department of Finance of Tsinghua University will not go anywhere after graduation. By the way, what's his name?"

Lin Mingfei raised his teacup and was about to take a sip when he heard that his hands were in the air.

He glanced at Xu Qing, not sure if the other party had a crush on Chu Lin, so he said calmly, "His name is Chu Lin, he is a senior this year, and he is currently doing an internship."

Xu Qing snorted, and asked again: "Where is the internship?"

Lin Mingfei mentioned a company name.

Xu Qing was a little surprised: "I remember this is a top [-] company." After a while, he said, "The future is really limitless."

The two chatted along this topic for a while, Lin Mingfei observed Xu Qing's expression, occasionally talked about Chu Lin's information, and then led the topic to other places.

Xu Qing didn't ask the bottom line, and listened to what he said, and even followed Lin Mingfei's topic a few times.

Lin Mingfei didn't see what he meant for Chu Lin, and secretly felt that he probably thought too much.

As a result, when going back, Lin Mingfei walked out behind Xu Qing. Xu Qing just opened the door, then suddenly turned around and asked with some hesitation: "You and Chu Lin, are you..."

Lin Mingfei's heart tightened when he asked him, and he looked at him and replied, "Yes, we are a couple."

Xu Qing responded, turned around and continued to walk out. Lin Mingfei didn't see the expression on his face clearly, and became uncertain about his previous judgment for a while.

With this doubt in his heart, Lin Mingfei gradually lost contact with Xu Qing. When Xu Qing made an appointment to meet again, Lin Mingfei made excuses to shirk it, saying that he was too busy to get out.

This is not an excuse, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Lin Mingfei is indeed busy.

Although he and Chu Lin were the only ones to celebrate the New Year as in previous years, the Great Galaxy Era was not keen on the ancient festival of the New Year, so it didn't matter if they couldn't pass it.

But do as the Romans do, Lin Mingfei gave gifts for the New Year to all the teachers he and Chu Lin had made friends with, and wrote blessings to a few local classmates in Qingcheng to send them over.

Several roommates from out-of-town invited him to dinner one after another before returning home, and he took advantage of the Chinese New Year to clean up the house again, and every room was decorated with a new look.

The house has been rented for nearly four years, and the landlord knows them well, knowing that they sent a pair of couplets here after the Chinese New Year—it happened that Lin Mingfei had just finished cleaning.

The landlord is an aunt who is nearly 50 years old, her surname is Liu, and she is very friendly. The rent in the higher education park has been rising again and again over the years. Seeing that both of them are college students, Aunt Liu is embarrassed to raise the rent. She has always paid according to the contract signed four years ago. money.

Therefore, Lin Mingfei will also give some gifts to Aunt Liu during the holidays.

This time Auntie Liu, in addition to sending couplets, also talked to Lin Mingfei about the house: "You have been renting for almost four years, and you will graduate next year. Will you still live after graduation? If you don't want to renew the lease, let me know in advance. Let me know, so I can find the next tenant."

Lin Mingfei poured Auntie Liu a cup of tea and said, "Next year, I will be graduating from my undergraduate degree, but I am also studying here as a graduate student. If you like, we may rent this house for another two years."

Aunt Liu said "Hey": "That's just right, and it saves me the time and effort to find someone else to rent a house."

After finishing speaking, Aunt Liu lowered her head and took a sip of tea, then looked up at Lin Mingfei moving her lips, as if hesitant to speak.

Lin Mingfei looked at her expression and thought she wanted to talk about the rent, but he was too embarrassed to directly ask for a price increase, so he simply took the lead and said: "Speaking of which we have been renting for so many years, the rent is still the original price. At the beginning, we only said that we might rent For four years, the contract will be re-signed this time, and the rent will be at the normal price."

But Aunt Liu said: "This...how do you say that, kid? You haven't given me enough things these years. Last time my neighbor saw me, he told me that he had worked so hard to raise a son, but he didn't see me anymore. I need you to be so caring. If I wasn’t afraid of your uneasiness, I wouldn’t want to charge you rent.”

Lin Mingfei was surprised: "We can't let you suffer."

Aunt Liu disagreed: "This is not a disadvantage, it is admiration."

Lin Mingfei said a few more words, but Aunt Liu insisted on not raising the rent, Lin Mingfei had no choice but to agree, but doubts arose in his heart.

After a while, Aunt Liu finished her tea and asked him again: "The young man who shared the rent with you, is he not here today?"

Lin Mingfei said: "He went out recently, do you need to find him? It's the same with me, I just pass it on to him."

Aunt Liu hesitated for a moment, then said: "I remember he is from Tsinghua University? I have a niece who just got admitted to Tsinghua University this year. She is quite handsome and has a good personality. Her mother is afraid that she will not be familiar with her in the university. I don't have anyone to take care of me, I want to ask someone to take care of me..."

Lin Mingfei was taken aback for a moment, and then felt relieved.

This is to draw a red line for Chu Lin.

He was funny and sour in his heart, with mixed feelings, but he couldn't refuse directly in front of Aunt Liu, and said euphemistically: "Chu Lin is in his senior year, and he has been doing internships outside this year, so he is very busy. I don't have much time at school, why don't I ask him to ask if there are any classmates at school who can help take care of him?"

Aunt Liu hurriedly said: "Why is it so troublesome, I will just mention it casually."

After a pause, she asked again: "Didn't I hear that the senior year is the most leisurely, is he really so busy?"

Lin Mingfei didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Whether you are free or not depends on the person. People like me are indeed free, but Chu Lin's internship unit is busy, and he is still on a business trip these two days."

"That's it." Aunt Liu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Lin Mingfei said: "The busier he is, the more he earns. He is under a lot of pressure, and he has to stand up first in his career."

"That's right." Aunt Liu said, "Start a career first, then start a family. You boys are always under more pressure."

Lin Mingfei said solemnly: "That's right, I still have a few years to study in graduate school, and I rely on him to support me."

Aunt Liu smiled when she heard the words, probably thinking he was joking.

The two sat and chatted for a while, and when it was time for dinner, Aunt Liu said that she would go back to cook for the family, and Lin Mingfei sent her to the door.

Aunt Liu asked suddenly: "By the way, come on, do you have a girlfriend?"

Lin Mingfei was stunned for a moment, then turned his eyebrows and smiled: "Why, you still have a niece who is admitted to Beihua and wants me to take care of it?"

"That's not true." Aunt Liu slapped her thigh, "I thought that Tsinghua University and Beihua would be separated by a wall. How about I introduce my niece to you?"

Lin Mingfei laughed out loud immediately: "I don't have a girlfriend." Before Aunt Liu could speak, he said again, "But I do have a boyfriend."

"Huh?" Aunt Liu was stunned.

Lin Mingfei laughed softly: "Now I still rely on my boyfriend to support me, but I dare not cuckold him."

Aunt Liu: "..."

After sending Aunt Liu away, Lin Mingfei heaved a sigh of relief. He turned around and saw the couplets on the table, so he simply moved a chair out and pasted the couplets at the door.

He just pasted an upside-down "Fu" character in the middle of the gate this morning, which will look very festive and prosperous.

Stepping on the chair to paste the couplets, he checked again to see if the couplets were aligned. After making sure that the couplets were not stuck crookedly, he was about to jump down when he suddenly turned his head with a feeling.

A few steps behind him, Chu Lin was looking at him with a smile, dragging a suitcase beside him.

Lin Mingfei couldn't tell for a while whether he was hallucinating or not.

He jumped off the chair, Chu Lin swung the suitcase, took two steps forward, and opened his arms.

Lin Mingfei jumped straight into his arms.

The outdoor temperature had dropped below zero, and Chu Lin was still covered with the chill of running all the way back, but Lin Mingfei felt as if he had fallen into the warmest embrace.

Chu Lin hugged him tightly, his voice trembling slightly due to the cold.

"I am back."
