Chapter 13 - Su Lin’s Accurate Prediction

Chapter 13 : Su Lin’s Accurate Prediction

That night, Wang Xiaoqian explained the whole situation to Lin Guoqiang without omitting any details.

Lin Guoqiang furrowed his brows, pondering for a while before sighing, “Su Zhenguo is indeed lucky. This Su Lin, even though he is only in his third year of high school, he is already outstanding. After experiencing university life, if he chooses a career path, he’ll definitely thrive.”

Wang Xiaoqian pinched Lin Guoqiang’s waist, saying, “What are you thinking? I’m talking about our daughter’s affairs.”

Lin Guoqiang waved his hand and said, “Wife, I think you’re overinterpreting it. If Su Lin really had the intention to scheme for three years, then he’s a genius.”

“I think this is a typical coincidence. If he really has such an exaggerated idea, our Xiaowan would have been deceived long ago.”

Upon careful consideration, Wang Xiaoqian felt that what Lin Guoqiang said made sense. Still, she frowned, saying, “I don’t understand where you stand. Clearly, someone has set their sights on your daughter, and you’re defending others.”

“Humph, wanting to have ideas about my daughter, Su Lin is not qualified at the moment. The college entrance exams are approaching; after she enters university, Xiaowan’s horizons will broaden, and she won’t be fixated on the immediate surroundings.” Lin Guoqiang said confidently.

“Aren’t you worried that something might happen in these three months? I feel like our daughter has some interest.”

“What? Are you suggesting they are already a couple?”

“No, I didn’t say that. I’m just worried.”

“Then… send our daughter abroad to study?”

“Studying abroad? By then, if Su Lin follows her, they’ll truly be out of sight, and there’s nothing we would be able to do about it.”

“This… I need to think of a solution; we can’t let our daughter be deceived.”

Seeing Lin Guoqiang getting serious, Wang Xiaoqian smiled. She knew how clever Lin Guoqiang’s mind was. If he decided to plot against Su Lin, he would do it thoroughly.

…

The night passed without words. Su Lin got up from the bed. “Ah, it’s tough being in the third year of high school. We even have classes on Saturdays.”

Having classes on Saturdays had become the norm in Zhongjiang City, with each school doing everything possible to boost their college admission rates.

“At the ferry of Xunyang River, seeing off the guests in the night; maple leaves and flowers shiver in the autumn breeze. The host dismounts, the guest stays on the boat, raising a cup with no music playing. Unable to turn joy into happiness, the bitter parting happens in the moonlit river. Suddenly, the sound of pipa playing on the water is heard, the host and guest forgets to leave…”

Listening to the loud recitation of “The Song of Pipa” in the classroom, Su Lin began humming along.

In the classroom, Su Lin was surprised to find that all the students were looking at him with strange expressions.

“Why is everyone looking at me?” Su Lin muttered to himself and then walked toward his seat. As soon as he sat down, he noticed two English class notebooks.

When he picked them up, he instantly understood why all his classmates were looking at him. Two class notebooks, one belonged to Xia Shiyu, and the other to Lin Xiaowan.

Su Lin looked towards Lin Xiaowan.

Lin Xiaowan stammered, “You’re not good at English. Borrow these to take a look; it might be helpful.”

“And there’s one from Xiaoyu; you can use it as a reference.”

“Appreciate it.” After saying that, Su Lin put both notebooks into his desk.

Although the conversation between the two was quiet, the surrounding students still heard it clearly. Instantly, their eyes fell to the floor.

Especially Yan Huan; several times, her gaze shifted between Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan. She couldn’t understand why Lin Xiaowan’s attitude toward Su Lin suddenly changed so much.

“Xiaowan, what’s been going on with you lately? Are you dating Su Lin?”

Lin Xiaowan gave Yan Huan a disdainful look. “How could that be? You’re overthinking things.”

“But you never lend your class notes to anyone, let alone Su Lin.”

Lin Xiaowan said seriously, “It’s not that I refuse to lend them; no one has ever asked me for notes Understand?!”

“Uh…”

“Alright, focus on your morning reading; the monthly exams are approaching.”

“Okay!”

The morning passed calmly. When the last class was about to end, Yan Huan suddenly approached Lin Xiaowan, asking to borrow money, claiming she lost her meal card. She looked at Yan Huan strangely.

She suddenly remembered what Su Lin had told her yesterday – that Yan Huan would definitely ask to borrow money within three days. At that time, she didn’t take it seriously, thinking Su Lin was just exaggerating.

Yet, here it was, happening just one day later.

Was it a coincidence, or did Su Lin predict it accurately?

Yan Huan searched all over herself, turning out her pockets, “Xiaowan, I remember bringing my meal card, but I really can’t find it now. Boo hoo…”

Lin Xiaowan carefully observed Yan Huan’s every expression, trying to confirm whether Yan Huan was lying. However, Yan Huan’s expressions were flawless, only showing a face of urgency while rummaging through her pockets.

Lin Xiaowan sighed in her heart. If it wasn’t a coincidence, then Su Lin’s words were indeed accurate. It was an excuse without any flaws.

Gradually, Lin Xiaowan started to believe Su Lin’s words. “Huan, I’m sorry, I left early today and forgot to bring money.”

“Ah, I see.” Yan Huan was disappointed. However, she quickly added, “Xiaowan, can I borrow your meal card? I’ll return it when I find mine.”

“Um…”

Seeing Lin Xiaowan hesitating, Yan Huan felt dissatisfied inside. Still, she didn’t show it on her face. After all, in her eyes, Lin Xiaowan was someone naive with a lot of money. Having a fallout with such a person would be truly foolish. “Xiaowan…”

“Okay, okay. Since I rarely use my meal card, you can take it for now.”

“Thank you, Xiaowan! You’re really kind.”

Afraid that Lin Xiaowan might regret it, Yan Huan snatched the meal card from Lin Xiaowan’s hand.

Later, she felt her approach was somewhat inappropriate and could only force a silly smile at Lin Xiaowan.

“Xiaowan, let’s go eat together.”

For some reason, Lin Xiaowan suddenly felt that her three-year-long desk-mate had become bland. She didn’t want to spend time with Yan Huan anymore.

So, Lin Xiaowan shook her head. “No, I’ll eat with Xiaoyu. You can use the meal card, just return it to me before school ends.”

Yan Huan heard the distant tone in Lin Xiaowan’s voice. She quickly said, “Xiaowan, come with me. I’ll save you a seat.”

Lin Xiaowan firmly shook her head, “No, I already told Xiaoyu yesterday. I want to check on her dad’s situation.”

“Well… okay.”

Both fell into silence. Although they didn’t express everything in words, both girls understood that their once-intimate relationship had become a thing of the past.

From today, they would gradually drift apart.

Yan Huan reflected for a while, reconsidering every word she said, but couldn’t figure out what went wrong. In the end, she went downstairs with a few close girl friends.
