Chapter 578: – Returning to her hotown
Ti passed quickly.
As Lin Jin and Xia Tian were doing well in the live streaming business, Xia Tian’s restaurant was also starting to gain popularity.
His restaurant was initially similar to a hotel, but it later shifted and introduced several signature dishes. Although the decor was a bit lacking compared to other high end restaurants, thanks to the good taste, the restaurant had sohow started trending online and beca a popular spot online.
Lin Jin’s second term of her second year had also started. She diligently went to class every day and would then diligently live stream after returning ho. The live stream viewership had completely stabilized at around the 300,000 mark. As for the actual number of concurrent viewers, it was probably around 10,000.
They seed to have beco a relatively big strear.
Lin Jin’s courses this term were noticeably more specialized.
Last sester, they were still learning so basic softwares, but now they had started learning special effects.
Luckily, the Adobe After Effects interface was sowhat similar to the Premiere software they learned last term so Lin Jin didn’t find it too difficult to pick up. Plus, the teacher would actually demonstrate each thing first before having the students try themselves. Even if Lin Jin was on her phone while listening, she could still absorb most of it.
There were fewer classes this term. Apart from three classes on Monday, she had no class at all on Tuesday and only a single class on Wednesday. A student who didn’t care too much about studying could totally squeeze out a mini vacation on Monday and Tuesday.
Since the live stream was doing pretty well and she had gradually shifted from a Dota strear to a console or standalone gas strear, she wasn’t too worried about the stream dying if Dota beca unpopular. After all, there were always a few good standalone gas every month, so she could just continuously stream them.
Lin Jin’s engagent caused quite a stir in her class, because she had invited a few classmates to the engagent. It wasn’t until then that her classmates suddenly realized that Lin Jin wasn’t f*cking crossdressing, but was an actual woman!
As for whether she was born a woman or beca one later had seemingly sparked a small debate among her class.
Lin Jin had long since stopped caring about such things. She just attended class as usual every day, then rushed ho after class to cook and stream. anwhile, Xia Tian stread at ho in the mornings every day and only went to the restaurant at night before closing to check the day’s earnings. She was quite relaxed.
So Lin Jin and XIa Tian’s life gradually settled into a dull routine.
Things were so dull that every day was the sa. There was no drama and no exciting situations. The only thing worth noting was that Teacher Lin, under the pressure from her parents, had finally found a boyfriend.
Teacher Lin wasn’t teaching any of Lin Jin’s classes this sester, but because Director Zhu resigned, she ended up becoming Lin Jin’s departnt counselor.
This dull life didn’t dull Lin Jin and Xia Tian’s relationship together. Even though there wasn’t as much passion and they didn’t go out on dates very often, the fact that they were together every day slowly made them feel more like a family.
They had thought that everything would stay peaceful, but when the Qingming Festival ca around, Lin Jin got a call from her mom.
Her great grandma had passed away and she needed to go back to attend the funeral.
Her great grandma was her grandpa’s mom. She was over ninety years old, so her death just ant her ti had co.
Lin Jin was very reluctant to go back to her grandpa’s place, but now that her great grandma was gone, she as a great granddaughter had to show up.
Even though the customs didn’t require her to do much, she still had to be there to do things like paying her respects.
Lin Jin applied for two days off and went back to her hotown with a reluctant look on her face.
Her grandparent’s place was in a small but bustling town, but Lin Jin was a bit apprehensive coming here.
Ever since she beca a woman, her grandpa had disapproved of her.
When she arrived at her grandparents’ house, the front hall was already filled with a bunch of relatives, so she recognized and so she didn’t.
Everyone focused their attention on Lin Jin the mont she arrived, making her very nervous. After forcing a smile, she found her mom and hurried over.
In this kind of situation, only her mom could make her feel safe.
Her grandpa ca out from the back, glanced at Lin Jin, said nothing, and sat down on a chair to drink his tea.
Her grandma also ca out with a big bowl of pork and fish ball soup, as well as a bunch of small bowls and spoons for the guests to eat.
“Where’s Lin Chen?” Lin Jin stiffly stood next to her mom and quietly asked.
“He’s upstairs sleeping. He said the school dorms are too noisy and he hadn’t slept well these past couple of days.”
“Oh.”
“Lin Jin, co have so.” After handing things out, her grandma seed to have finally rembered her and waved her over.
Lin Jin shook her head and timidly shrunk her neck in.
Although her grandma had never explicitly stated her attitude about her situation, she had been noticeably distant.
“We get up at six tomorrow to send off great grandma. If you’re tired, go upstairs and get so rest first.”
“I’m not tired.” Lin Jin continued shaking her head, trying hard to make herself invisible.
However, those relatives didn’t leave Lin Jin alone and asked her mom: “Whose child is this?”
“Mine. Lin Jin.”
“Isn’t Lin Jin a boy?”
“She’s a girl now.” Her mom put an arm around Lin Jin’s waist, looking like she was ready to protect her.
Those relatives obviously understood what her mom ant, shaking their heads and whispering among themselves.
Lin Jin sighed. Feeling that she couldn’t stay here any longer, she hurriedly left the front hall and ran upstairs to look for Lin Chen.
Her grandparents’ house had four floors, but because the top two floors weren’t really used, only the front and back rooms on the second floor were furnished.
Lin Jin went straight to the back bedroom on the second floor and imdiately saw Lin Chen curled up on the bed with his phone.
“Sister, you ca.” Lin Chen instantly beca excited when he saw her, gesturing as he said “Co co co, I found a movie on my phone, it seems pretty good.”
“Didn’t they say you were here to sleep?”
“That’s just what I said. It’s too noisy downstairs, so annoying.”
Even though Lin Chen was already a tall and strong man, his personality was still introverted.
“We have to get up at six tomorrow morning. Oh right, where am I sleeping tonight?”
“I think at uncle’s house next door? I heard they’ve already laid out the beds there, I think great uncle’s place also prepared a lot of beds.” Lin Chen got here a few hours before Lin Jin. When he just arrived, he wandered all over, but now he had beco a lazy salted fish.
Lin Jin sat down on the edge of the bed and tiredly yawned.
“Oh right, there’s still a dinner banquet tonight, and another tomorrow morning. We’ll only sending off great grandma after eating.”
“Okay, got it.”
