Chapter 494: – Picking up a free caraman
Xia Tian had also started learning to dance.
Since he had to work and livestream almost every day, the only ti he had to learn dancing was about an hour between coming ho in the evening and when he started the stream. In other words, Xia Tian used to have an hour of leisure ti at night, but now he had nothing.
But Lin Jin was still okay. She was currently researching what kind of dance Xia Tian should learn in the mornings. In the afternoons, she would help her dad deliver takeout and earn so pocket money. Only in the evenings would she go over to teach Xia Tian dance. Although her day seed pretty busy, it was actually really easy.
The delivery was only to custors within a two kiloter radius. So after Lin Jin familiarized herself a bit with the surrounding neighborhoods, she got pretty good at deliveries. Plus, not many people ordered milk tea for delivery, usually there would only be one per hour, so Lin Jin delivering takeout was quite relaxing.
She just treated it as riding a bike to exercise her body.
Her dad had been living a very orderly life lately. Since Lin Jin was on sumr break and stayed ho every day, she almost always knew exactly where her dad went. Maybe because her dad had to look after the shop now, he hadn't gambled in a long ti. He still drank and stuff occasionally, mostly with the bored grandpas and grandmas nearby, chatting and playing mahjong while sipping drinks.
Lin Jin felt her dad now was much better than before. Before, he always liked to drink until he was drunk and even liked to gamble every few days. He would even vent the frustrations accumulated from gambling on her, so he rarely treated her well. But now, her dad actually had a smile on his face every day, clearing in a good mood.
In the afternoon, Lin Jin sat on a small stool in front of her dad's milk tea shop, head down as she played on her phone.
Her dad had gone out to deliver milk tea, saying that staying in the shop all afternoon was boring and that he would go out to get so fresh air. So Lin Jin ended up as the one watching the shop, boredly sitting there on her phone.
Life in Xian was slightly more boring than in Guangdong. After all, over there in Guangdong, there were still those two Lin Chen and Wu Jia. Though they usually just went out to play basketball while she herself mostly had nothing to do. It was only in the evenings that the house got lively. It was the sa as over here in Xian, bored out of her mind during the day, but in the evenings she could hang out with Xia Tian. So it was about the sa.
After about half an hour, her dad ca back on the bicycle. The strange thing was, after doing this one takeout delivery, there was now a young man in his twenties sitting on the bicycle's back seat.
Was this kidnapping a man while delivering takeout?
Lin Jin speechlessly watched her dad park the bike in front of the shop, chatting and laughing with the young man. Though her dad was chatting and laughing very happily, the young man’s expression looked indifferent.
"Lin Jin, this is my friend's son. They said it's not good for him to stay cooped up at ho all sumr, so they asked
to bring him over to hang out with you." Her dad introduced the young man to Lin Jin. "He's a student at Xian University, way better grades than you. You can ask him for help when you have ti."
"Let’s forget it. The stuff I’m learning isn’t the sa as him. Don’t you know that different fields are worlds apart?" Lin Jin rolled her eyes.
The young man, who had still been indifferent earlier with her dad, now looked a lot more spirited. Clearly, he hadn't expected that the sumr playmate his family arranged would turn out to be a beauty.
"His na is Chen Jin, pretty similar to yours. It’s quite the coincidence." Her dad pulled a stool to sit in front of the shop while introducing that young man nad Chen Jin. "Co co co, co over and get to know each other. This is my daughter, Lin Jin."
Chen Jin sowhat hesitantly ca over to Lin Jin's side. He awkwardly scratched the back of his head, unable to say a word for a long ti.
While her dad started saying again: "He's two years older than you, third year, about to be fourth year. You can call him brother."
"And also, Chen Jin usually stays at ho every day. His family said he probably has so social anxiety, so they want you to bring him out to play." Her dad said with a smile, hoping the two youngsters would get along well.
But Lin Jin looked indifferent and perfunctorily nodded. The introvert Chen Jin didn’t know how to interact with such a pretty girl, he just stamred for a long ti but didn’t end up saying anything.
Her dad probably thought that the awkwardness between the two was due to his presence, so he smiled and shook his head as he went inside the shop.
However, the two of them still remained distant.
Chen Jin awkwardly stood there, not even sitting, just standing by the side and looking at Lin Jin. Maybe he got tired of looking, since he took out his phone, leaned against the shop wall, and looked down to go on his phone.
So, why did her dad have to bring such an introverted person over? They couldn’t hang out at all, okay?
Could it be that he thinks this person’s family conditions were good and was also good looking, so he was planning to match them?
Lin Jin raised her hand and glanced at the person, boredly pouting as she asked: "Hey, why don’t you go ho if you’re so bored?"
Judging by the ti it took her dad to bike back and forth, this guy's ho shouldn't be far from here.
"I wouldn't know what to tell my dad if I went back now." Chen Jin’s voice was very gentle. He also wore black frad glasses, looking quite scholarly.
This guy seed to have a bit of social anxiety, or at least that was what her dad had said. However, Lin Jin had yet to notice how he was socially anxious. If it was just not knowing what to say when eting with strangers, then that might just be because he was a bit introverted.
Lin Jin tilted her head and looked at this bookish guy.
"You're not going to sit?"
"No need." Chen Jin lowered his head, not even willing to look at Lin Jin.
Tsk, having a conversation was impossible. Lin Jin felt it was better for him to quickly go back. Otherwise, she would even feel uncomfortable sitting here and going on her phone.
"Hello, dad, want
to go deliver so takeout?" Lin Jin felt the atmosphere was super awkward, so she took the initiative and volunteered.
"No need, no orders." Her dad inside was currently watching shows on his phone.
