Chapter 132: Chapter 132 Lin Yu Almost Sold Himself
Liu Ou and Lin Yu had indeed noticed the little gestures of the young couple. Liu Ou seemed to have thought of something.
Suddenly, laughing, she said, "Otherwise, shall we split up and do our own thing?"
Luo Yanran responded, "No need! Together!"
After saying this, she glared at Xie Xiao.
Xie Xiao felt quite innocent, but the look in her eyes when she glared at him was clearly filled with shyness.
He felt a bit helpless yet amused, and said, "Right, together."
While speaking, he reached out to take the things in her hands, "If it becomes too much later, I can always carry you."
But Luo Yanran whispered softly, "I won't need it, I used to tire myself out more than this during dance practices."
Xie Xiao was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke up, "Little Luo Teacher, you're hurting my pride here."
Did that make it sound like he was the one who couldn't keep up?
Luo Yanran couldn't keep up with his trail of thought and gave him a puzzled look, blinking.
Finally, Xie Xiao sighed, "You make me feel like I'm the one who can't keep up..."
"I get it! Shut up!" Luo Yanran quickly interrupted him, "Stop talking!"
"Hey, you lovebirds over there!" Liu Ou called out from the doorway, "Why don't you take your chat aside? Bring over the plates!"
In the end, Luo Yanran dumped the plates into Xie Xiao's hands, "I'm going to wash my face."
Then she ran off.
Liu Ou looked at Xie Xiao with raised eyebrows, "What's with our Yanran?"
"She's shy," Xie Xiao said with a laugh.
Lin Yu clicked his tongue from the side, "Beast!"
Xie Xiao let out a sound, but he restrained himself since Liu Ou was still around, without saying that at least he was doing better than some people who couldn't even catch up to their girlfriend.
Nevertheless, Liu Ou didn't stay long, and went up to wash her face too.
It seemed only right for girls to be meticulous about their appearance when going out.
So Xie Xiao and Lin Yu just sat downstairs waiting.
This kid Lin Yu was really mean, not talking, just occasionally glancing at Xie Xiao and then clicking his tongue.
Soon Xie Xiao couldn't bear it anymore, "If you've got something to say, just say it, stop with the clicking."
Lin Yu let out a laugh, "I've got nothing to say, just observing someone being all lovesick."
Xie Xiao didn't hide it, looking at Lin Yu, "Jealous?"
To his surprise, Lin Yu actually nodded, "A bit, yeah. I think you're really lucky, kid."
Xie Xiao thought to himself that he was indeed lucky, or else how could he have met such a wonderful girl?
Lin Yu sighed, "I'm thinking of studying medicine."
Xie Xiao paused, looking at Lin Yu, "Medicine?"
This was something Xie Xiao had not anticipated. In his past life, Lin Yu attended a regular undergraduate institution and seemed to study computer science.
So in this life, Xie Xiao had assumed he would continue with computer science.
Seeing his surprised expression, Lin Yu raised an eyebrow, "What? I can't study it?"
"It's not that. I just didn't expect it," Xie Xiao laughed, "You studying medicine does sound quite terrifying."
Lin Yu cursed playfully, "Get off your high horse, man. Actually, I never thought I'd study medicine either."
Lin Yu had secretly considered it before.
But there were no medical schools around here.
If he were to study medicine, he would have to go to the nearest city, which he was reluctant to do before,

Because of grandma.
"I had never thought about leaving this place before." Lin Yu touched his own trousers and then remembered he wanted to quit smoking, so he didn't bring any. "I have grandma, you know."
It wasn't until after the exams, when grandma came over with some sweet soup, "Have you decided what you want to study?"
At the time, Lin Yu was playing with his phone, took the soup and said, "Not yet, I'll wait for the results to come out, then I'll pick a major with good job prospects around here..."
"Aren't you going into medicine?" Grandma interrupted, looking at him gently, "Because of me? Are you worried about leaving me alone?"
Lin Yu said with a smile, "What are you talking about, old lady? When did I ever say I wanted to go into medicine?"
"You still have the books on your desk." Grandma smiled, sat beside him, and reached out to touch his head. "You're a smart kid, why don't you get it? If your scores are good enough, you should study what you want to study. Grandma will go with you."
"I never thought the old lady would know what I'm thinking," Lin Yu said, shaking his head, "so I plan to go into medicine if my scores are good enough. Actually, if I estimate my scores, I should have done quite well."
Xie Xiao laughed too, so this kid didn't go into medicine in his past life because his scores weren't high enough?
But that makes sense, because in his past life, Lin Yu had barely made the cut for his undergraduate studies, but this life was different. His scores in every mock test were usually good enough for first-tier universities, and always in a decent rank.
Xie Xiao nodded, "That's great, now one of us will be making money, and the other saving lives. I'll study finance, and you'll study medicine."
Lin Yu couldn't help but curse out loud, "Give it a rest, will you?"
There was a light in his eyes, "Thank you, bro. Without you, I wouldn't even dare to think about what to study at university."
Xie Xiao couldn't help but ask him, "If I hadn't egged you on to try stock trading, how were you planning to pay back the money?"
Lin Yu glanced at him, hesitated to speak.
Seeing his expression, Xie Xiao raised his eyebrows, "So you did have another plan?"
"Ahem. Well, the debt collection agency provided some ideas, like accompanying drinking clients and stuff... damn!" Lin Yu was a bit embarrassed, "But I never thought about going through with it, I was planning to borrow some money from friends of my dad."
He rubbed his face, looked at Xie Xiao's strangely twisted expression, and reiterated, "I really didn't think about it! I was planning to borrow the money!"
Xie Xiao nodded with a yeah yeah yeah, sure sure sure, I totally believe you kind of face.
It was incredibly annoying.
Lin Yu was about to die of exasperation. He wished he hadn't told this guy.
Of course, Xie Xiao believed Lin Yu wouldn't accompany clients to drink. With his temperament, it would have been good luck if he didn't pick a fight on the first day and end up in even more debt.
"Will your dad's friend lend you the money?" Xie Xiao asked.
Lin Yu murmured an affirmative, "Should do, he sometimes comes by the house. He secretly leaves some money there, but grandma doesn't really like him. If I go to borrow money, grandma will probably make a big fuss."
Xie Xiao had really never heard any of this.
But then again, his relationship with Lin Yu had become strained later in his past life, so it wasn't strange he didn't know these things. Continue your adventure with M-V-L
The more he thought about it, the guiltier he felt. He said to Lin Yu, "Don't worry, trust me, I will make sure that we earn back the thirty thousand in two months, which will be enough for..."
He paused, "At least half of your future tuition fees."
Lin Yu gave him a look, somewhat speechless, "You're not impressive at all, you know? You should tell me you're going to make me a millionaire."
Xie Xiao chuckled twice, "There's a difference between dreams and delusions. You'd get to dreaming a lot faster."
Then they looked at each other and laughed again.
Luo Yanran and Liu Ou came down just to see both of them laughing foolishly.
Luo Yanran asked curiously, "What's so funny?"
"Laughing at Lin Yu who almost had to sell himself..."
"Damn it! Xie Xiao, I'm gonna kill you!"
"Hahaha~"
"Sell himself? What do you mean?"
The sun was still shining brilliantly. The young men had a long way ahead of them. After a brief period of confusion, they were about to embark on a new journey.
The road ahead was clear and open.
