Chapter 299
A few days had passed in the blink of an eye, and it was Friday afternoon again. In recent days, everything had settled back into a calm and steady routine.
Now, 10 of the 12 girls had appeared, and as for the remaining two, there was no point in rushing—it was already hard for him to manage the current situation.
On the bright side, the store was completely ready, and they could definitely open this weekend. However, he only planned to show up for a while during the opening in the morning, leaving the rest to his father-in-law and mother-in-law. After all, he couldn’t be much help there.
Instead, he planned to take a few of the girls to visit the elders back home since it had been quite a while since he had last gone. Originally, it was just supposed to be Ji Yun and Chu Fengyi going with him, but after chatting with Chu Qingchan the other day, she insisted on coming along too.
Xu Lin thought it made sense—after all, they had first met back in his hometown, but since then, only Chu Qingchan had gone back once. It was about time for another visit.
That said, tonight, he still had to visit Su Qingwan’s house. Last time, no one was home, but this time, he had to go. He’d heard the elders were there too, which meant he’d have to put on his best acting skills.
Then there was the conversation between Ji Yun and Qin Yunhe scheduled for tonight. It made him a bit nervous, mainly because Ji Yun had arranged it all herself, and he wasn’t involved at all. He had no idea what they would talk about. Still, given Ji Yun’s personality, there probably wouldn’t be any conflict with Qin Yunhe. He just had to wait patiently for the results.
Yawning at the thought, Xu Lin was snapped out of it by the teacher calling on him to answer a question.
About ten minutes later, the last class of the day ended. Xu Lin immediately headed toward the back of the room—it was his turn for cleaning duty again.
