Three meals a day, raw rice cooked into porridge

At this moment, he could no longer hold back.

He had waited eighteen years, and the regrets of his previous life could finally be somewhat compensated for!

He directly hugged Liu Menger and lightly pecked her small face all over.

“You… you—!”

“Don’t… don’t be like this!”

“Xingyun… you… don’t be so… so eager…”

Liu Meng’er was already burning up all over, trembling as she gently pushed Lin Xingyun away.

Although she had already prepared herself mentally when she showered earlier.

She knew that staying here this time.

She probably wouldn't be able to escape Lin Xingyun's clutches!

Although she had also been looking forward to this day for a long time…

But when it came down to it, she was still extremely nervous!

When Lin Xingyun saw her trembling with nervousness, unable to speak coherently.

To ease her emotions.

Lin Xingyun hugged her intimately, while patting the little black cat beside her.

“Yaoyao, come, do a flip!”

At Lin Xingyun’s command.

The little female cat named Yaoyao immediately leaned back.

And began to perform backflips on the spot!

And it was one after another, one after another.

The movements were extremely fluid!

“This… this… this is—?!”

“Yaoyao… can it really do backflips?!”

Liu Meng’er looked at this unbelievable scene.

For a moment, she couldn't help but forget her shyness, gaping in astonishment.

She had thought that Lin Xingyun was just trying to coax her over with a clumsy excuse.

She never expected that this little female cat could actually do backflips!

And the next moment, the little cat was not only doing backflips.

It actually propped itself up with its paws.

And began to perform a Thomas flair!

“This… how is this possible—?!”

Liu Meng’er was even more astonished, her small mouth wide open in surprise.

A moment later.

Yaoyao stopped its movements, panting and wiping its sweat.

It seemed quite intelligent, lying diagonally to the side and wiping its sweat.

Looking at its two owners who were already lying on the sofa and starting to undress, it knew it probably didn't need to do any more backflips!

… … … … … … [Ten thousand words deleted]

The next morning, Lin Xingyun was hugging Liu Meng’er and kissing and cuddling her.

Suddenly, he received a WeChat message from Liu Fengyi, saying that she was also going abroad for an inspection trip and wouldn't be back for the entire summer, telling him to take good care of himself and Liu Meng’er.

Lin Xingyun naturally obeyed, and for the entire summer, he began to comprehensively take good care of himself and Liu Meng’er in the bedroom, dining room, bathroom, swimming pool, balcony, and living room.

He achieved new levels, adopted new measures, and made new Breakthroughs!

At the same time, he emphasized new methods, understood new forms, and clarified new requirements!

In new expectations and new relationships, he utilized new skills, showcased a new demeanor, reached new heights, created new things, and achieved new results!

He recognized the importance, urgency, and timeliness of it!

With initiative, consciousness, and foresight, he grasped the overall situation, adhered to practicality, emphasized strategy, and maintained long-term stability! At the same time, fully considering the complexity and arduousness, he mobilized enthusiasm and unleashed creativity, completing this task with planning and keenness!

And he also did not forget standardization, proceduralization, scientification, intellectualization, and professionalization!

He pinpointed the starting point, entry point, and foothold of the matter! He paid attention to the focus, emphasis, leverage points, connection points, and key points!

He based himself on the present, looking to the long term!

He seized opportunities and met challenges!

He highlighted key points and implemented them step by step!

He comprehensively promoted and coordinated implementation!

He strictly regulated, rigorously implemented, actively strived, deeply carried out, mutually benefited, refined, continuously strengthened, steadily improved, consolidated and deepened, and gradually perfected…

Finally, after a summer, the two had gone from raw rice to porridge!

And the day before the summer vacation ended, Liu Meng’er’s parents and Liu Fengyi finally returned home.

On the evening of this day, Liu Meng’er still didn't want to go home, so she stayed in Lin Xingyun's living room, hugging him, while they continued to watch the finale of “Three Lives Three Worlds: Xuanyuan Immortal Sword Chronicles of Hua Qian Gu” while being affectionate.

“Ding dong!”

Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and Lin Xingyun got up to open the door.

He saw Liu Meng’er’s father, Liu Jin Yuan, standing at the door with large and small bags, a broad smile on his face.

As soon as he saw Lin Xingyun, he bowed and nodded, his face creased with smiles.

“Oh, it’s Uncle Liu?”

“Long time no see, please come in.”

“You didn’t have to bring so many things, you’re too polite!”

Lin Xingyun smiled, sizing up the other person.

Liu Jin Yuan, however, was beaming, shaking the large and small bags in his hands, and said with immense enthusiasm.

“It’s only right! I should have visited my son-in-law a long time ago!”

“Oh, I’m old, and I don’t know what young people like these days!”

“So I just casually bought some graphics cards, drones, DSLRs, watches, tri-fold screen phones, PS5s and such, please don’t mind, please don’t mind!”

At this moment, Liu Meng’er also dressed and came over, walking to Liu Jin Yuan’s side and calling out.

“Dad!”

Then she smiled playfully at Lin Xingyun and instructed him.

“Xingyun, it’s my dad’s first time bringing gifts to meet his son-in-law, so it’s natural for him to be a little nervous. Don’t make things difficult for him later!”

“Hmm, got it, come in and sit first.”

Lin Xingyun smiled and nodded, then invited Liu Jin Yuan to come in and sit down.

After the three of them were seated, Lin Xingyun coughed and said to Liu Meng’er.

“Meng’er, go cut some fruit. I’ll have a private chat with Uncle Liu.”

“Alright! Then Dad, you behave well!”

Liu Meng’er responded and went to the kitchen, leaving Liu Jin Yuan sitting there awkwardly, constantly wiping sweat, seemingly very nervous.

After a while, he rubbed his palms and chuckled sheepishly.

“Um… son-in-law, you and Meng’er—”

Lin Xingyun waved his hand, interrupting him.

“Wait, Uncle Liu, I forgot to correct you just now.”

“Meng’er and I aren’t married yet. Calling me son-in-law now isn’t appropriate, is it?”

“Ah, yes, yes, yes! Little Lin, Little Lin!”

“Little Lin, about your marriage with my daughter, is it—”

Liu Jin Yuan rubbed his hands deferentially, his face full of anticipation.

Lin Xingyun crossed his legs and waved his hand again to interrupt.

“See, you’re rushing again.”

“Even though we’ve been neighbors for so many years, I always feel that I don’t know enough about you, Uncle Liu. How can I easily agree to marry your daughter?”

“How about this, you give a more detailed self-introduction.”

“Okay, okay!”

“I’m 48 this year, and I run my own company. My annual income is just under a small target!”

“Hmm, 48 years old, not young anymore. It’s time to marry off your daughter.”

“Isn’t it! That’s why I’m so anxious!”

Liu Jin Yuan slapped his thigh, speaking urgently. Lin Xingyun nodded in satisfaction and continued to ask.

“Who else is in your family? Can you take care of our children if Meng’er and I have them?”

“Are the car and house ready? How much dowry are you planning to give?”

“Little Lin, don’t worry! Everything is ready!”

Liu Jin Yuan patted his chest, then directly took out a finely packaged gift box from the pile of gifts beside him and handed it to Lin Xingyun, swearing solemnly.

“These are the property deeds and car keys, all ready. One for you and one for Meng’er!”

“This card has eight million eight hundred eighty-eight thousand in dowry money. Please accept it, Little Lin!”

“And my company, if you just ask, I can decide to give you half of my shares!”

“Why only half?”

Lin Xingyun frowned, a hint of displeasure on his face.

This made Liu Jin Yuan shiver nervously, and he could only scratch his head cautiously.

“Well… this is… because I also have an elder daughter, named Liu Xinyan.”

“She went abroad to study and isn’t married yet. The other half of the shares are for her to use when she marries her husband in the future…”

Upon hearing this, Lin Xingyun immediately waved his hand, agreeing very generously.

“Hah! This is easy, isn’t it?”

“Listen to me! Give double the dowry money, give all the shares to me, and I’ll handle everything else!”

“From now on, we are family!”

“Really?! Then Little Lin, I—”

Liu Jin Yuan’s eyes widened, his face full of pleasant surprise, and he stood up excitedly!

Lin Xingyun, however, smiled playfully, glancing up and down at him.

“Hmm? Still calling me Little Lin?”

“Yes, yes, yes! Son-in-law!”

“Hey, Dad!”

Their communication was incredibly smooth, and the marriage was quickly settled, only waiting for Lin Xingyun and Liu Meng’er to graduate from university before getting married!

… … … … … … … …

As the car door closed.

Lin Xingyun shook his head, no longer reminiscing about those sweet memories, and opened the door to get out.

Liu Meng’er had already put up a parasol and linked arms with him.

The two walked side by side towards the hotel.

The class reunion was held at this Cloud Peak Celestial Terrace Hotel.

When the two arrived at the hotel private room.

They saw that most of their old classmates had already arrived.

They were drinking and chatting, smiling and tearing up, talking about their youth.

And when they saw the two of them arrive.

Many classmates, including the class monitor, still enthusiastically greeted them and invited them to sit down.

However, both of them merely responded politely.

Liu Meng’er even showed a hint of impatience.

As if she was a bit eager to finish this gathering as soon as possible.

In fact, if Lin Xingyun hadn’t insisted on coming.

She actually had no interest in this class reunion.

Because their university experience was quite different from others.

Since that summer seven years ago, when her parents returned from abroad, they seemed to have been mentally prepared, and Liu Fengyi even strongly supported their matchmaking.

The two naturally got into the same university.

Liu Fengyi immediately took action and bought a villa near that university as their love nest during their university years.

From then on, the two began to live a shameless world of two!

As for those university classmates, neither of them had any desire to bother with them.

And their inseparable, lovey-dovey appearance.

Wherever they went, they spread their affection.

Even if people in the university were not normal, they wouldn’t waste their effort to provoke these two!

Things like enemies, getting slapped in the face, love rivals, provocations, showing off.

These messy things.

Had nothing to do with them at all!

Every day, the two simply attended classes, and then simply attended physiology classes.

During holidays, they would travel to various places together.

Visiting all the beautiful mountains and rivers under heaven.

And having three meals a day along the way!

As a result, after four years, they actually didn't even recognize many of their classmates…

But it didn't matter, the two just sat in the corner, eating and drinking.

Others were noisy, crying, and laughing.

They pretended not to see it all.

Until the reunion was about to end, the class monitor, fueled by alcohol, initiated an activity, inviting everyone to go hiking tomorrow.

Because near this coastal city, there was an extraordinary famous mountain.

That famous mountain had a long history and beautiful scenery, and it was said that emperors once performed the Fengshan sacrifice on it.

Some classmates immediately responded enthusiastically.

Lin Xingyun was concentrating on eating the Prawns that Liu Meng’er fed him.

When he heard them initiating the hiking activity, he smiled slightly.

Then, feeling playful, he lightly bit Liu Meng’er’s outstretched finger.

“Tsk! Stop it! We’re still outside.”

“I’ve already booked the room. We can mess around later…”

Liu Meng’er playfully slapped him, blushing as she whispered.

“Hmm? Are you full?”

“I’ve been full for a long time. Didn’t you see I stopped eating and was peeling shrimp for you?”

“Then what are we waiting for?”

“Let’s go to the room and eat something else.”

Lin Xingyun whispered into her ear, chuckling.

Liu Meng’er then happily punched him twice, pulling him as they quietly left the private room.

… … … … … … … …

… … … … … … … …

Twelve o’clock that night.

On the sixty-sixth floor of the Cloud Peak Celestial Terrace Hotel, in a city view suite.

Lin Xingyun was leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window.

Sometimes looking at the myriad lights outside the window, sometimes at the dim stars in the high sky.

Like a reborn sage, contemplating life!
