Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Maybach Big Sister, Chi Linyue

Xu Lin’s act of bravery, to put it mildly, went viral.

In the evening, it even reached number 13 on the trending topics list.

On a smaller scale, Xu Lin received messages from his high school classmates, acquaintances from other classes, and even from his middle school classmates and teachers.

"Xu Lin, did you really perform an act of bravery?"

"Xu Lin, is that you?"

"Xu Lin, you’re so brave!"

In short, Xu Lin received many messages.

He only saw them after finishing his workout in the evening.

But Xu Lin didn’t respond.

Firstly, he wasn’t a vain person. If he were even a bit vain, he would already be responding to everyone’s messages, boasting about what happened, enjoying and pandering to everyone’s praises, and losing himself in it all.

But Xu Lin wasn’t that kind of person.

Moreover, Xu Lin was truly lazy and didn’t want to take the time to type and respond to them all.

So Xu Lin ignored their messages.

Around ten in the evening, his mom sent a message along with a screenshot of a trending short video.

Mom: "Is this person you?"

Xu Lin: "Don’t recognize your own son?"

"Is it really you?" his mom was quite shocked.

Xu Lin: "It’s me!"

Mom: "Don’t do it next time, I’m worried something might happen to you."

Xu Lin: "OK."

Xu Lin knew she was worried about him.

But Xu Lin’s mom wasn’t completely against his actions, so she added: "But you did very well. Just remember to always prioritize your own safety in the future!"

Xu Lin felt touched. In this world, the only two people who truly cared about him were his mom and Yu Xinyan.

As for Xu Lin’s dad, they didn’t have much to say to each other, and who knows where the old man was now; their last conversation was months ago.

Then, his mom asked, "Did the person you saved thank you?"

"Yes."

"Just verbally?"

"For now, yes, but she asked for my number."

"If all they do is thank you verbally, let me know. If I don’t chew them out, I’ll take their family name!"

His mom had a fiery personality, leaving Xu Lin with mixed feelings.

Then, the next day arrived as expected.

When Xu Lin woke up the next morning, he saw three missed calls from the same unknown number on his phone.

The number was from Jiangdu.

"Who is it?"

Xu Lin was curious, but he didn’t call back.

He had a habit of not returning calls from unknown numbers; if they called again, he would answer, else he’d let it be.

These days, scam calls were quite frequent.

Especially once when Xu Lin accidentally answered a call from out of town, and it turned out to be a scammer who bombarded him with information for over half an hour, leaving a lasting impression.

Buzz, just as he came out of the shower, he saw his phone vibrating; it was that unknown number again.

Xu Lin answered.

He put it on speaker.

"Who is this?"

"Are you Xu Lin?"

It was a woman, and her voice was very pleasant. Xu Lin guessed she was in her twenties, giving off the vibe of a gentle big sister.

Sometimes, without knowing what someone looks like, a voice can make one imagine they are a beauty. But as we all know, not many voice actors are good-looking, and those who are, aren’t exceptionally so.

"Yes, I’m Xu Lin. And you are?"

"Thank you for your bravery yesterday in saving my sister-in-law. I’m her sister-in-law. Are you free to join us for dinner tonight?"

"Sure, no problem."

They chatted for a while longer.

Through the conversation, Xu Lin learned the woman on the phone was named Chi Linyue, and she was from Jiangdu. Her sister-in-law was visiting her hometown, which was the city where Xu Lin lived, and that’s where the accident happened.

Xu Lin suddenly realized.

Since Xu Lin saved them, their family wanted to treat him to a nice meal at the Jilin Grand Hotel.

It was the best hotel in Xu Lin’s city, a five-star establishment.

Xu Lin, who had lived in this city for eighteen years, had never been to that hotel.

Hearing he would be dining at the Jilin Grand Hotel, Xu Lin was certainly pleased.

During the day, Xu Lin continued his usual routine of gaming at home.

He had already reached the fourth playthrough of Black Myth: Wukong.

Then in the afternoon, Xu Lin worked out for over two hours.

After showering.

It was already 5:30 PM.

Chi Linyue’s call came in.

"Xu Lin, I’m outside your apartment complex."

"Wait for me, I’m coming down now."

Xu Lin dressed neatly, which for him simply meant a T-shirt, cargo pants, and sneakers.

In this hot weather, Xu Lin not wearing flashy shorts and flip-flops to the upcoming meal was already a sign of great respect.

He wasn’t concerned with appearances and dressed casually as usual.

As he walked out of the complex, Xu Lin looked around.

Where is she?

He saw a Maybach and a very pretty woman.

The woman looked to be in her twenties, with a low ponytail, incredibly beautiful, on par with Yu Xinyan, and had a great aura about her, with a dignified air suggesting she came from a wealthy family.

Xu Lin watched for a moment but didn’t immediately connect her to the woman he spoke with on the phone.

He didn’t think it was such a coincidence.

But then the woman waved at him, walking over in high heels and smiling: "Xu Lin, over here!"

So it was her!

Xu Lin was surprised but kept a calm expression.

Xu Lin said, "I didn’t expect it to be you when I looked just now."

Chi Linyue smiled, "Hop in!"

"Is this a Maybach?"

"Yes, it is."

Chi Linyue opened the door to the passenger seat for Xu Lin.

Following her, Xu Lin caught a faint whiff of high-end perfume, but more prominently, a unique personal scent.

Xu Lin had interacted with many girls, especially his childhood friend Yu Xinyan, so he could distinguish between perfume and personal scent.

Moreover, Chi Linyue was quite tall. With 8 cm heeled sandals, she was just slightly shorter than Xu Lin, and he estimated she was about the same height as Yu Xinyan, around 1.75 meters?

Regarding her figure, Xu Lin glanced over; her chest was the same as Yu Xinyan’s in terms of size, but her hips were a bit larger than Yu Xinyan’s.

Especially since she was wearing a pencil skirt, with a corset effect enhancing the visual impact and providing an impressive waist-to-hip ratio.

Add to that a strong aura of a mature and commanding woman.

What a stunning beauty!

Xu Lin couldn’t help but wonder, does she have a boyfriend?

At this point.

As Xu Lin sat in the passenger seat, Chi Linyue took the driver’s seat and naturally crossed her legs, with her short skirt revealing her exquisite legs.

Xu Lin thought, not wearing black stockings was a pity.

Chi Linyue turned back and asked: "Have you fastened your seatbelt?"

Click!

Xu Lin: "All set!"

Chi Linyue asked again: "Have you been to Jilin Grand Hotel for a meal before?"

"No, I haven’t."

"Neither have we, so I’m not sure how the food will be."

Chi Linyue added gratefully: "Thank you so much for yesterday; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

Xu Lin casually replied: "I was just passing by, it was nothing."

"Not everyone would dare. You were the only one who did!"

"I acted without thinking at the time."

"Haha, it was dangerous, so we have to thank you properly!"

Chi Linyue smiled again and asked: "Are you still in high school?"

"Just graduated this year."

"Where will you be attending university?"

"Jiangdu University of Finance and Economics, starting as a freshman in September."

"Haha, what a coincidence, Xu Lin! I graduated with an undergraduate degree from Jiangdu University of Finance and Economics too!"

"You’re from Jiangdu University of Finance and Economics too?"

Xu Lin was a bit surprised, not expecting to meet an alumna.

While driving, Chi Linyue laughed and said: "I graduated from Finance University with an undergraduate degree, continued with my master’s and doctorate at Jiangdu University."

"You’re impressive!"

As a mediocre student, Xu Lin wasn’t considering a master’s, let alone a doctorate.

Especially since he heard the dropout rate for male doctoral students was quite high.

Additionally, he heard that nowadays, obtaining a Ph.D. is quite challenging.

Of course, that wasn’t a concern for Xu Lin.

First and foremost, he just needed to graduate from college smoothly.
