Not long after, Lin Chen received Su Jin 'er's reply.
Su Jin 'er first replied with a pouting emoji.
"You didn't tell me earlier. I'm playing at Grandma's house in the countryside now.”
"When are you coming back?" Lin Chen asked.
"At least 10 more days…"
After Su Jin 'er went to high school, she was too busy with her studies and did not have time to visit her grandmother in the countryside.
After filling in her application two days ago, she went back to her grandmother's house in the countryside with her mother.
"Alright, then I can only set off alone."”
"You should have told me earlier."”
It could be seen that Su Jin 'er really wanted to go out and play with Lin Chen.
"Haha, it was also a last-minute decision. It's okay. We'll go to school together when school starts.”Lin Chen replied.
"Okay."
"Oh right, do you want any gifts?"”
"A present?" Why did you give me a gift?"
"Just tell me if you want it or not.”
After a while, Su Jin 'er sent a message.
"I don't want it. Don't spend money recklessly."
Lin Chen smiled. If he really did not want it, he would not have hesitated for so long.
It was obvious that he did not mean what he said!
"Alright, since you say you don't want it, then I won't buy it.”Lin Chen said deliberately.
Far away in the countryside, Su Jin 'er's expression froze when she saw this message.
Then, she puffed up her pink cheeks like a little goldfish and muttered softly,"I said I don't want it, and I immediately said I don't want it. You don't have any sincerity at all!”
However, since he had already said it, he couldn't change his mind.
"I should have said I wanted it…"
Just as Su Jin 'er was feeling a little regretful, her phone screen flashed. Lin Chen had sent a new message.
"I'm just teasing you. I'll buy you a gift.”
Su Jin 'er smiled and snorted,"Big bad guy!"”
After laughing, another thought flashed through her mind.
Lin Chen gave her a gift, so she had to return the favor!
"Since you gave me a gift, I'll make a gift for you too.”
……
The next day, Lin Chen changed into a clean set of clothes, carried a simple bag, and went straight to the high-speed rail station.
After checking in, Lin Chen found his seat and sat down.
The passengers on the bus got on one after another. Lin Chen took out his phone and prepared to check the route after arriving in Shanghai.
Last night, Lin Chen had already booked the hotel in advance.
The Ritz-Carlton Shanghai, located on the east bank of Huangpu River, was in the heart of the bustling Lujiazui.
It was not far from the Oriental Pearl Tower, Zhengda Square, and other scenic spots. Sightseeing, shopping, and eating were very convenient. During the day, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Pujiang River, and at night, you can enjoy the first lights.
The lowest price was 2800 yuan per night.
It was expensive, but you get what you pay for.
If it was the old Lin Chen, he would definitely not be willing to stay in such an expensive hotel.
Not to mention 2800 yuan, even 280 yuan a night was a little painful.
But now, Lin Chen did not lack money at all.
The life of a rich person was so simple and unadorned!
Lin Chen was looking down at his phone when he heard a voice.
"Hello, my seat is inside. Please make way.”
Lin Chen found the voice familiar. He looked up and saw a familiar face.
"Teacher An, it's you!" Lin Chen said in surprise.
That's right, the person in front of him was Lin Chen's high school form teacher, An Ruolin!
An Ruolin was surprised to see Lin Chen.
"Lin Chen, why are you in the car too?”An Ruolin exclaimed.
"I'm planning to go to Shanghai to have some fun. Teacher An, are you going too?”Lin Chen asked.
"Yes, I'm going to Shanghai to meet a friend.”An Ruolin nodded.
"Teacher An, is your seat inside?”Lin Chen pointed at the seat by the window and asked.
"Yes." An Ruolin said.
"Haha, what a coincidence!" Lin Chen said with a smile.
He had thought that he would be going out alone, but he did not expect to bump into An Ruolin in the car.
Moreover, their seats were next to each other.
Lin Chen stood up and gave up his seat to An Ruolin. He saw that An Ruolin was holding a suitcase in her hand.
"Teacher An, please sit inside. I'll help you put the box away.”
"Thank you, then." An Ruolin said.
After An Ruolin sat down, Lin Chen helped her put down her suitcase and sat down as well.
When he sat down, Lin Chen subconsciously sized up An Ruolin.
An Ruolin was wearing a long dress today. She had delicate features, willowy eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose bridge, and fair skin.
Lin Chen could not help but sigh. Teacher An's looks were even more pleasing to the eyes than the female celebrities on the screen!
Although An Ruolin had been Lin Chen's homeroom teacher for a year, this was the first time the two of them were sitting together like this.
Lin Chen could even smell a faint fragrance coming from the side.
"Lin Chen, why are you going to Shanghai alone?”An Ruolin asked curiously.
"I'm going out for a walk and taking a look at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.”Lin Chen replied.
"Did you apply for Shanghai Jiao Tong University?" An Ruolin asked.”
"Yes, I am." Lin Chen nodded.
"Then you've changed from my student to my junior!”An Ruolin said with a smile.
"Teacher An, did you graduate from Shanghai Jiao Tong University?”Lin Chen was pleasantly surprised.
"Yes." An Ruolin smiled and nodded.
"Haha, what a coincidence."
Lin Chen and An Ruolin were chatting happily when someone suddenly interrupted.
Sitting opposite Lin Chen and An Ruolin was a man in his thirties. He was dressed in business attire and his name was Xu Jie.
Xu Jie couldn't help but look at An Ruolin after getting into the car.
It was the first time Xu Jie had seen such a beautiful woman!
When he first saw Lin Chen and An Ruolin sitting together, Xu Jie thought that they were a couple.
Xu Jie was envious and jealous.
Such a beautiful woman already had a boyfriend!
But then, he pricked up his ears to listen to Lin Chen and An Ruolin's conversation and realized that the situation did not seem to be what he had imagined.
That was because Lin Chen addressed An Ruolin as 'teacher'.
"It looks like they are in a teacher-student relationship, not a couple!”
After realizing this, Xu Jie was ecstatic.
"My chance is here!"
At the thought of this, Xu Jie couldn't wait to speak.
"Excuse me, I heard him call you 'Teacher An'. Are you a high school teacher?”Xu Jie asked.
He wanted to confirm the relationship between Lin Chen and An Ruolin.
An Ruolin glanced at Xu Jie and nodded politely.""Yes."
Xu Jie pretended to be surprised."You look so young, but you're actually a high school teacher. The profession I admire the most is that of a teacher. Nice to meet you. My name is Xu Jie.”
Xu Jie extended his hand toward An Ruolin.
"I don't have the habit of shaking hands with others," An Ruolin said with a frown.”
Xu Jie's expression froze and he pulled his hand back awkwardly.
"I'm sorry, I was rude." Xu Jie said.
Xu Jie felt a little regretful that he did not manage to shake An Ruolin's hand.
However, this did not dampen his enthusiasm. He continued to look for topics to talk about.
"Speaking of which, we're considered half schoolmates. I'm a graduate student at East China Normal University, just across the road from Jiao Tong University. It's fate to meet each other on the same high-speed rail…"
"When I was studying at East China Normal University, there was no girl as beautiful as you in the entire school. I really envy the male students in the same year as you…"
Xu Jie kept nagging…
He wanted to get closer to An Ruolin and even talked about his own company to gain An Ruolin's favor.
"After graduation, I started my own business. The company is doing well now, and the annual profit has already exceeded a million…"
However, no matter what Xu Jie said, An Ruolin's expression remained indifferent and she basically ignored him.
Xu Jie did not give up. Instead, he continued to search for topics.
A goddess like An Ruolin could only be found by chance.
It was not easy to meet him, so Xu Jie naturally had to do his best to display his bootlicker skills.
An Ruolin's face gradually showed signs of impatience. She turned her head to look out the window, completely treating Xu Jie as if he was invisible.
Under normal circumstances, as long as one had some eyesight, they would shut up at this time.
However, Xu Jie acted as if he did not see it and continued to talk non-stop.
Lin Chen sighed. He really couldn't take it anymore.
It was an hour's drive from Tiannan City to Shanghai by high-speed rail.
Who could bear to have such a fly buzzing in their ears?
"Can you shut up?" Lin Chen said.
