Transmigration: Flirted with My Childhood Sweetheart
Chapter 460 - 459: Does He Want to Study?

Chapter 460: Chapter 459: Does He Want to Study?

Huaizhou glared fiercely at Su Yuncheng, squeezing out through his teeth: "Where did you take my sister?"

Today, he was discharged from the hospital and had thought that his sister would come to pick him up. However, his mother mentioned that his sister had been working on a threshing machine and needed to go to the machinery factory today. He thought that was official business, but he waited and waited...

He waited from dawn till dusk and ended up seeing Old Dog Su bringing his sister back!

"To the machinery factory," Lin Nianhe answered for Su Yuncheng. She fumbled inside the oil-paper wrapper, finally finding a whole chestnut. As she peeled it, she walked towards Lin Huaizhou, "Brother, I brought you some sugar-roasted chestnuts."

After speaking, she placed a round chestnut into Lin Huaizhou’s palm.

Lin Huaizhou instantly lost his temper and grinned, "Xiao He is so thoughtful, busy all day yet still remembered to bring me food. I love sugar-roasted chestnuts the most." He said this, shooting a provocative glance at Su Yuncheng.

Su Yuncheng: "I bought them."

Lin Huaizhou simply ignored the remark, putting the chestnut in his mouth and then, leaning on a crutch with one hand and placing the other on Lin Nianhe’s shoulder, he said, "Let’s go Xiao He, let’s go home."

Lin Nianhe turned back to wave at Su Yuncheng: "Brother Yuncheng, I’m going home first then."

"Alright, I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow morning."

Lin Huaizhou exploded instantly: "Why are you still coming!"

Su Yuncheng: "To take her to the machinery factory."

"Is that necessary?" Lin Huaizhou’s eyes bulged.

Su Yuncheng didn’t reply, just looked at his right leg and the crutches.

Lin Huaizhou: "..."

His annoyance with Su Yuncheng wasn’t unreasonable! Seeing him like this, the only reason he hadn’t broken his leg yet was because of his current mobility issues!

Lin Nianhe, feeling a headache coming on, tugged at Lin Huaizhou, "Brother, why are you being so fierce? The machinery factory is so far, aren’t you worried about me being in danger on the way?"

"Just let dad drive you."

Lin Nianhe: "It’s prohibited to use the government vehicle for personal use."

Lin Huaizhou was choked up again.

He only hated that his injury came at such an inconvenient time!

Grinding his teeth over and over, he ultimately chose his sister’s safety.

However, he didn’t want to let Su Yuncheng be so smug, so he said, "Come here, I have something to say to you!"

"Okay."

Su Yuncheng casually parked the car and followed him into the Lin Family’s main gate.

Lin Huaizhou led Su Yuncheng directly into his room.

Lin Nianhe watched the firmly shut door, feeling a wave of dejection—she couldn’t get any gossip wherever she went today. It’s so hard being a gossip lover.

Lin Huaizhou sat down on a chair, glaring at Su Yuncheng: "Come clean, how did you deceive my sister?"

Su Yuncheng pulled over another chair. Ignoring Lin Huaizhou’s fiery gaze and sitting down, he didn’t address this purely venting question but said instead, "I’m planning to change careers."

"Huh?" Lin Huaizhou was stunned, "Are you crazy?"

A twenty-two-year-old Lieutenant Colonel, with a boundless future ahead, yet he says he wants to change careers?

Isn’t that madness?

Su Yuncheng explained as he looked at him, "You and Uncle Lin don’t want Nianhe and me together because you think my job is too dangerous, and that I might often be away from home, unable to take good care of her. If I change careers, these problems won’t exist anymore."

Lin Huaizhou’s mouth dropped open, and it took him a moment to regain his voice, "Actually, I mainly think you’ll sweet-talk my sister into being completely spun around. She’d even help you count the money if you sold her."

Su Yuncheng: "...?"

You really don’t know your sister well.

The last person who tried to sell her is still squatting in prison, and the grass on the grave of the one before that is taller than a person.

Huaizhou frowned at Yuncheng, struggling for a long time before saying, "I didn’t mean it that way... you know, I basically raised my sister, it’s not a slight against you, I just think no one is good enough to be my brother-in-law."

"I understand."

Yuncheng now fully understood the concerns of the Lin family father and son. When Nianhe said he resembled her father this morning, he had already empathetically considered this issue.

"So you should stop thinking about transitioning to another career," Huaizhou resignedly wiped his face, "If Xiao He really likes you, even if it’s just to keep her from being upset, I can’t really do anything to you... It wasn’t easy for you to get where you are now, it all came at the cost of your life. What could you do if you change careers?"

Huaizhou’s eyes drooped, feeling very awkward.

On one hand was his beloved sister, on the other, his brother.

He really didn’t know what to do.

But Yuncheng said, "I’ve already made up my mind. I talked to Uncle Lin about it today. Hei Province is very stable now, and the people I led there initially are now capable enough. With more training, there shouldn’t be a big problem."

Huaizhou frowned, "What about you? What will you do? Move to a civilian job?"

Yuncheng seriously replied, "Nianhe mentioned she wants to go to university; I plan to study with her."

Huaizhou yelled, "Get out!"

Study with Lin Nianhe at university?

Was he really doing it for the studies?

He couldn’t be bothered to expose him!

Holding his chest, Huaizhou gasped for breath, comforting himself, "It’s okay, it’s okay. You haven’t studied in so many years, there’s no way you’ll get into university..."

Yuncheng glanced at him as if looking at a fool and then stood up and walked out the door, speaking just loud enough for Huaizhou to hear, "Teacher Hehe, I’m going home to grab my high school textbooks, help me review them."

"Su! Yun! Cheng!"

Yuncheng: "Brother, anything else?"

"...!"

Huaizhou was furious, he wished he could kill Yuncheng, but he was physically unable to do anything.

During dinner, Huaizhou glared at Yuncheng’s bowl, regretting why he hadn’t thought of poisoning it before the meal.

Huaizhou’s anger didn’t subside even when Ryan came to visit.

Seeing Ryan carrying a stack of books, his face full of anticipation, Huaizhou felt like his heart was being shredded.

Another one...

He suddenly realized, no matter how reluctant he was, his sister had grown up, it was time for her to think about marriage.

The heart of an elder brother, shattered into pieces.

Nianhe didn’t take Ryan to her room; instead, she had everything set up in the living room, claiming they had calculated the data together as an excuse to keep Yuncheng there too.

Ryan didn’t mind having an extra person, looking at Yuncheng with surprise and admiration, "Brother Cheng, I didn’t expect you to know so much about mechanics." He used to think Yuncheng only knew how to handle guns!

Yuncheng casually flipped through a high school mathematics textbook, scanning the pages quickly, and merely curved his lips saying, "I learned a bit during my time in the army."

"Being a soldier is so tough, and yet you still managed to study... I really wasted too much time before!" Ryan sighed deeply, a flash of annoyance in his eyes. He took a deep breath, unwilling to waste more time, and quickly started discussing with Nianhe.

The finished threshing machine that Rong Zhiguo made had many discrepancies from the data on paper, all of which Nianhe noted down. While data is important, the experience of a skilled craftsman cannot be ignored.

Nianhe and Ryan slowly discussed and analyzed, later Huaizhou and Yuncheng also joined in. Unintentionally, time swiftly slipped away.

When Mr. Lin and Aunt Lin came home, it was almost eleven o’clock, the house was brightly lit, and the four kids in the living room were discussing enthusiastically, not even noticing their return.
