Whenever he had so free ti, Lin Shuang would sort through mories from his previous life.
To see if he could find any information gap that could make him rich.
But then he realized, there was none!
He had always led an ordinary life in his previous life.
From undergraduate all the way to postdoctoral, eventually becoming a university professor.
It’s fair to say he’d spent almost his whole life in the academic ivory tower, insensitive to the happenings of the outside world.
There was simply no profitable information to be had.
He did occasionally buy lottery tickets though.
But he wouldn’t rember the winning number combinations.
Moreover…
even if he rembered the numbers now and bought the ticket,
The draw might not co out the sa.
Mystical, isn’t it?
Now, Lin Shuang had so money given by System Lady, so he wasn’t in such dire need of cash.
His material desires weren’t that high.
Another reason he sorted through his past life mories was that
He felt he had forgotten sothing very important.
What could it be…
no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t rember.
Oh well, better to just enjoy the present life.
After class, he packed up his laptop and left the classroom,
Planning to move to the next class.
That’s when he discovered the teaching building was surrounded, exits completely blocked.
“What’s going on now?”
Looking down from the overhead corridor, Lin Shuang instantly saw a staircase at the exit of the teaching building filled with pink roses.
There were also lots of fireworks set up on the platform.
Many female students started screaming.
“This is too romantic!”
“Is that ng Qingming from the ng Family?”
“Oh my God, which girl is ng Qingming confessing to with such a grand gesture?”
Following their gazes, Lin Shuang indeed saw a guy in a suit and leather shoes in the middle of the sea of flowers, holding a huge bouquet.
It looked like there were 999 roses, and the guy looked sowhat strained holding them.
He seed a bit unsteady on his feet, he needs so kidney tonics.
Probably his house doesn’t have a little maid skilled in making soups, what a pity.
Lin Shuang smirked, thinking this was like encountering a new elite monster.
Certainly, a notch above soone like Li Pengfei.
Li Pengfei was the type you’d slash right through in a ga—a re minion.
This ng Qingming, on the other hand, seed more like an elite monster with a health bar.
At that mont, ng Qingming’s underlings rolled out a banner.
Seeing the words on the banner created another round of screams inside the teaching building.
This ti it was the male students screaming.
“Dammit, this guy is actually aiming for Chairman Xia?”
“Let’s go down and take him out!”
“We only want to be Chairman Xia’s dogs, how dare this guy confess to Chairman Xia?”
“Forget it, that’s ng Qingming from ng Family, they own a listed company.”
“But he’s still not worthy of Chairman Xia!”
Lin Shuang watched the grand scene unfolding at the entrance of the teaching building, utterly bored.
All those flowers must have cost a decent sum, huh?
Next ti just donate the money to him, don’t waste it like that!
He pulled out his phone, thinking of composing a ssage.
But a ssage from Xia Yubing ca in first.
“Husband.”
Just these two words.
While ng Qingming was still passionately speaking into the microphone,
And hundreds of onlookers were cheering on,
Lin Shuang just felt they were noisy.
Looking at the phone screen, Lin Shuang walked out from the crowd, going his own way.
“Didn’t we say not to call that during the day?”
“But I suddenly felt like calling you that, hubby, buy a rose, will you?”
Lin Shuang smiled; he hadn’t even sent a ssage yet.
System Lady jumped out first.
[Choice Activated]
[Buy a rose for Xia Yubing, the host gets one mory clue]
[Reject Xia Yubing, the host gets one copy of “How to Please a Wealthy Woman” Secret Manual]
Looking at the title of this Secret Manual, will there be a steel wool step involved?
Lin Shuang thinks the System Lady is looking down on who!
Aren’t all the wealthy won coming to him?
What use does he have for this Secret Manual!
He should get a copy of “How to Keep Wealthy Won from Annoying Him” instead.
Lin Shuang put away his phone and walked towards the campus flower shop.
Only to find upon arrival that all the flowers had been sold out.
Well, that ng Qingming really made a grand scene.
Lin Shuang had no choice but to go to another flower shop outside the campus.
At the sa ti.
At the end of the fifth floor of the teaching building, inside the abandoned classroom, Xia Yubing’s secret base.
Xia Yubing was sprawled across the table, looking at the unresponsive chat box.
She pursed her lips.
Below the teaching building, the segnt progressed to everyone shouting Xia Yubing’s na.
Although this secret base had special soundproofing.
But the noise outside was too big, after all, hundreds of people shouting together, still so sound leaked in.
Xia Yubing suddenly felt irritable.
She turned off her phone.
“Yixin.”
Xia Yixin, who was on standby, imdiately responded, “Miss, I’m here.”
“Go down and give that monkey a beating, throw him out.”
“Okay, Miss.”
Xia Yixin closed the door and left.
Xia Yubing’s cheek was still resting on the table.
Her eyes fixed on the screen-off phone.
She counted with her fingers, “He will co, he won’t co, he will co…”
“What are you muttering?
Isn’t it so spell to curse ?”
Xia Yubing’s eyes suddenly widened, and she swiftly turned around.
Her skirt caught on the corner of the table; she stumbled but stabilized herself by holding onto the table.
“You ca.”
Lin Shuang held a rose and looked at her, “This excited?”
Xia Yubing then realized her own gaffe.
Not at all like a true miss.
She propped herself up with both hands, sat on the table, and swung her legs lightly.
Her eyes fixed on the rose in his hand, “Told you to buy one and you really did?”
Lin Shuang shook the rose towards her, “Don’t want it then forget it!”
Xia Yubing snatched it, held it against her chest, “Since husband has given it, I can only reluctantly accept.”
She sniffed it gently, it slled nice.
So, her legs swung even more cheerfully.
Ah, that monkey downstairs still had so use, making Lin Shuang bring her a rose.
Maybe she could tell Yixin to go a little easier—but it’s probably too late.
Lin Shuang waved at her, “I’m leaving, I have class.”
Xia Yubing jumped down from the table, “Wait for a mont.”
She gave Lin Shuang a flirty smile and even winked.
Then she gathered her soft hair at the top, tying it into a bun.
With one hand holding her bun, she handed the rose to Lin Shuang.
“Help put it in, would you?”
Lin Shuang then inserted the rose into her bun, like a jade hairpin, securing her hairstyle.
Xia Yubing showed him, “Does it look nice?”
Lin Shuang sincerely admired, “Beautiful.”
This miss really looks beautiful no matter what.
“Alright, go to class, see you next ti~”
When Lin Shuang ca out, he peeked at the bottom of the teaching building.
Hm?
So many people?
Why have they all dispersed?
It seems like there are also ambulance sirens sounding?
Did the dogs charge?
Lin Shuang shook his head and went to class.
