Chapter 637: Chapter 637: On the Eve of Summer Vacation_1
"I won’t be going for now because I want to go back to my hometown. I’ve been away from home for a year already and I didn’t go back for the New Year celebrations. I’m sure my dad and Dongxue miss me a lot." He Zhilan shook her head. While she loved money, she now loved her family even more. She hadn’t seen them for a year, and she missed them greatly, just as they must miss her.
This term, she made some money by selling hair accessories. So, she planned to go back home and live with her family for a while, "If it is possible, can I come back earlier and work for a month?"
"Sure. After your vacation, just call me whenever you want to come back to the capital. I’ll arrange everything with John for you. John and his wife like you very much. If you worked for just ten days, let alone a month, they’d be overjoyed!" Lin Chan nodded.
Lin Chan already felt a bit reluctant at the thought of He Zhilan going back to her faraway rural hometown for at least a month during the summer vacation. Ever since he met He Zhilan, it seemed that he hadn’t spent such a long time without seeing her. He Zhilan had become a small part of Lin Chan’s life, just like his sister, as he said.
"However, it’s a good thing that you’re going back. The He Family has treated you so well. As human beings, we cannot forget our roots and should never be ungrateful. I support your decision to go back and spend quality time with your family!" This was how Lin Chan encouraged He Zhilan, "When we were younger, we didn’t understand many things and made mistakes, which was acceptable, but now that we’ve grown up, we should take care of our elders."
"Yes!" He Zhilan nodded, "But, if I go back to my hometown, I won’t be able to visit my brother’s army base and won’t be able to see you guys. I think I will miss you all!"
"If you don’t miss us, that would mean you, He Zhilan, are heartless!" Lin Chan took over the conversation and laughed. When they arrived at their destination, he helped He Zhilan unload the goods from the car.
Yan Wei’s garment factory was in a suburb of the capital. However, each time He Zhilan delivered goods, she only needed to deliver them to a designated counter set by Yan Wei. The person in charge of the counter would receive, inspect the goods, and pay on the spot.
He Zhilan spent her weekends fawning over He Teng, so her time to do handicrafts was limited to the weekdays. She had to go to class during the day and only had some spare time. Considering the amount she was able to produce, after deducting costs, she managed to earn approximately one yuan per day which added up to about five yuan a week. For almost the whole term, along with the living expenses that He Teng gave her every month and the compensation from the Gu Family for the injury she suffered due to Gu En, He Zhilan managed to save quite a bit of money.
After delivering the goods, Lin Chan took He Zhilan straight back to school. The Lin Family had an engagement that evening, so he couldn’t take her to his home. They agreed that he would take her to the train station the next morning. Only after, did they say goodbye, one went back to the dormitory, and the other drove off in a stylish car through the campus.
"Zhilan, our main subject professor is looking for you. She asked you to visit her in her residential building once you get back." Seeing He Zhilan return, Jiang Biyun lifted her head and then turned in front of her, asking, "How do I look in this outfit? Is it pretty?"
Jiang Biyun, who had been dating for a whole semester, looked more radiant than ever, "Lin Deng invited me for dinner tonight. This outfit is my new purchase for the summer. Do you think it looks good?"
"It looks good! Anything suits you! To a lover, every move is charming. Even if you were ugly, Lin Deng would still find you attractive!" He Zhilan nodded, teasing, "Look at all the clothes you’ve bought since you started dating. You’ve filled up two cabinets! You’re impressive!"
"That’s called dressing to impress one’s partner. I’m leaving now, you go to dinner with Chen Xiting and the others. After dinner, remember to go to the professor’s place." With a reminder, Jiang Biyun left the dormitory, leaving He Zhilan alone in the room waiting for Chen Xiting who was out doing the laundry to return.
The professor is looking for her? He Zhilan was puzzled. She had just spent quite a lot of time with the professor during the day, so why was she being summoned again?
