Chapter 33 Lu Liu’s school acceptance was actually from the same one as “…

Hearing the noise, Lin Qingye immediately put down his work and quickly appeared at the door of Lin Zhi’s room, asking, “What’s wrong?”

“He said,” Lin Zhi pointed at Yao Wenjing, angrily saying, “He doesn’t want to go to college anymore and wants to work to earn money.”

“What’s a kid like you thinking, working?” Lin Qingye walked in and ruffled Yao Wenjing’s hair, saying, “Your grades are so good, it would be a shame not to go to school.”

“It’s not about whether it’s a shame or not,” Lin Zhi said seriously, “Xiao Jing, I’m asking you, do you really not want to go to school?”

Yao Wenjing was silent for a long time before finally shaking his head.

“Then that’s settled,” Lin Zhi turned to look at Lin Qingye, “Dad, he just thinks there’s no money.”

“I have money,” Lin Qingye patted his chest and said, “You two just go ahead and study, the kid shouldn’t worry about money.”

“I can’t accept your money,” Yao Wenjing quickly waved his hand, “Uncle has already taken me in, and I’m very grateful. If I take more… I’d feel guilty.”

“What are you thinking?” Lin Zhi stretched his arm around Yao Wenjing’s shoulder and smiled, “Actually, my dad doesn’t have much money either. We can take out a loan for our tuition, he’ll just cover our living expenses.”

“Then I still can’t accept…” Yao Wenjing said quietly.

“Shut up,” Lin Zhi pretended to be angry, “Do you still not see me as a good brother? Of course, I don’t have the right to ask my dad to give you money, what I just said was something he and I already discussed.”

“Mm,” Lin Qingye said kindly, “Wenjing, besides the fact that you and Lin Zhi are good friends, Uncle really likes you. How about this, if you feel uncomfortable taking my money, how about you consider me as your godfather?”

Yao Wenjing froze and said, “Ah?” Lin Zhi was just as surprised, Lin Qingye had never mentioned this before.

“Do you want to?” Lin Qingye, feeling more and more pleased with his idea, smiled and said, “This way, you and Lin Zhi will truly be brothers.”

“I…” Yao Wenjing turned to look at Lin Zhi as if asking for approval.

Lin Zhi smiled and nodded.

“If Uncle doesn’t mind,” Yao Wenjing’s face showed a mix of happiness and tears, “I would be very willing.”

“Then from now on, you’re my second son,” Lin Qingye laughed, the corners of his eyes crinkling with wrinkles, “You two brothers should help each other in the future.”

“Mm,” Yao Wenjing nodded heavily and softly called out, “Godfather.”

With Lin Zhi and Lin Qingye’s comfort, Yao Wenjing obediently filled out his college applications with Lin Zhi the next day.

Lin Zhi firmly decided to apply to schools in City B, filling out all his preferences for schools in City B. Yao Wenjing didn’t mind where to go, so he also chose a few schools in City B and selected majors that would earn money the fastest after graduation.

After this event, Yao Wenjing grew a lot in just a few days. His previous lack of confidence transformed into independence.

Lin Zhi had thought that Yao Wenjing would be depressed for a long time after this, but after filling out the applications, Yao Wenjing found a summer job as usual, worked diligently every day, and after work, he would play chess and tease birds with Lin Qingye, enjoying a leisurely time.

Because of this, Lin Qingye frequently praised him, saying he was obedient and sensible, much more considerate than Lin Zhi.

“Dad,” Lin Zhi said helplessly, “If you want to praise Xiao Jing, just praise him directly. There’s no need to always contrast me by saying bad things about me.”

“I’m just speaking the truth,” Lin Qingye laughed, moving his chess piece, “General, Xiao Wenjing, you lost again.”

“Godfather’s strategy is amazing,” Yao Wenjing flattered mindlessly, “I was tricked by your feint.”

“Hahaha,” Lin Qingye squinted his eyes with a smile, rearranging the chessboard, “Playing chess is like deploying troops. You need to think carefully before making every move…”

Yao Wenjing listened very attentively, then said, “I’ve remembered, Godfather, let’s play another round. This time, I’ll make sure my offense and defense are well-balanced.”

“Not bad, not bad,” Lin Qingye nodded in approval, “You’re listening much more than Lin Zhi. No matter what I said before, he wouldn’t listen, that’s why he was so reckless when playing chess.”

Lin Zhi sighed silently, shook his head, and continued playing on his phone, not wanting to engage in any pointless resistance. As long as Lin Qingye and Yao Wenjing were happy, it was fine.

The holiday passed in an orderly fashion. Yao Wenjing remained strong and fearless, but on the day he received the acceptance letter, he couldn’t hold back and hid in his room, crying quietly.

The next day, he still had to work. Lin Zhi was worried his eyes would be swollen from crying, so after giving him enough time to release his emotions, he brought in a small bag of ice and knocked on the door.

“Xiao Jing,” Lin Zhi sat with his back to him, “Think about it from a different perspective. Isn’t this what you dreamed of? You got into university, you’re away from your dad, everything will be fine from now on.”

“Mm,” Yao Wenjing replied with a thick nasal tone, “It’s even better than what I dreamed. With you and Godfather by my side, and I’ll be studying in the same place as you. Actually, I’m quite happy. I don’t even know why I’m crying.”

“Crying is fine,” Lin Zhi said, “It’s better than keeping everything bottled up inside.”

A few days later, Lin Zhi received his acceptance letter as well. Looking at the address of the university, the last stone in his heart was finally set down.

Boyfriend, I’m coming.

“Zhi” must have received his acceptance letter too, but unfortunately, searching for “Zhi” on WeChat still showed that it didn’t exist. It couldn’t be like last time, where he would have to wait until the summer of his first year to add “Zhi” on WeChat, could it?

But it didn’t matter. Soon, he would be able to visit “Zhi’s” school on the weekend, and maybe they would run into each other on campus, even though he didn’t know what “Zhi” looked like.

University freshmen typically start school around the same time. During that period, the class group was very lively, with people asking about each other’s schools, start dates, and if anyone wanted to travel together.

Lin Zhi saw that several classmates were also going to B City, but most of them were having their parents or family take them to school, except for Lu Liu.

Lin Zhi had always known that Lu Liu was applying to B City, but what he didn’t know was that the school Lu Liu got into was actually the same as “Zhi’s”!

When Lin Zhi saw the name of the school that Lu Liu posted in the class group, he was stunned for a while.

New messages quickly flooded the screen. Lin Zhi scrolled back up to confirm that he hadn’t made a mistake, then tried to remember which school “Zhi” was attending. He clicked on Lu Liu’s profile picture and entered a private chat.

【Lin Zhi: Class monitor, do you remember you said you wanted to study law in college?】

If he wasn’t mistaken, “Zhi” was also studying law, which meant that Lu Liu and “Zhi” were at the same school, and possibly even the same major.

Lu Liu replied quickly:

【Lu Liu: Yes, why?】

Lin Zhi licked his lips, the corner of his mouth lifting involuntarily. It was such a coincidence that Lu Liu and “Zhi” were so close. If he went to “Zhi’s” school for a visit and asked Lu Liu for help, wouldn’t that increase the chances of him accidentally running into “Zhi” in the dorms?
