Chapter 587: Chapter 615: The First Lesson (Part 3)
Bai Bing took Lin Mengmeng to the dining table and started eating breakfast!
She and Lin Xi shared one portion, while Lin Mengmeng had another, as she only liked meat and showed no interest in anything else.
Lin Xi only grilled two plates, intending to grill more after Lin Mengmeng finished eating.
After all, if he grilled everything now, it would get cold!
However, to Lin Xi and Bai Bing’s surprise, Lin Mengmeng ate about as much as Lin Xi usually did and couldn’t eat any more.
In other words, there was more than a plate of meat left!
Lin Xi and Bai Bing questioned her and discovered that the reason she ate so much yesterday was because she hadn’t eaten for a long, long time, so she ate a lot then.
But her usual portion size was only this much!
Upon hearing this explanation, Lin Xi felt a lot of relief, otherwise maintaining such an appetite daily would be difficult for even the wealthiest.
After the three of them finished their meal, a very real problem presented itself to Lin Xi and Bai Bing.
The issue was that one of them had to go to work, and the other to school, so what should Lin Mengmeng do alone?
Taking her to the company was an option, but would she go with Bai Bing?
Lin Xi was skeptical, considering she had ran into his room in the middle of the night.
If she went to school with Lin Xi, it seemed impractical too, considering her personality and how she would interact with others, and there would be so many people; Lin Xi was worried about her potential reactions.
Just looking at the mess in the living room, one could tell Lin Mengmeng’s destructive capabilities!
Thinking along these lines, bringing her to the company with Bai Bing was also not convenient.
So what should they do?
Looking at Lin Mengmeng, she held one hand with Lin Xi and the other with Bai Bing.
The two felt a bit at a loss.
Should they hire a nanny? But if the nanny found out about Lin Mengmeng’s peculiarities, many issues could arise.
Therefore, hiring a nanny was ruled out!
Of course, looking at her with a clueless expression, Lin Xi reckoned she wouldn’t understand even if explained to her.
Feeling quite troubled, Lin Xi glanced at the TV in the living room and suddenly thought of a solution.
He went to the hall, found the remote, turned on the TV, and switched to the animation channel.
Lin Mengmeng was very curious and approached to touch or do something.
Lin Xi quickly stopped her, fearing she might damage the TV show or something; knowing her strength, losing control could lead to disaster!
After explaining to Lin Mengmeng together with Bai Bing, she seemed to nod repeatedly, appearing half-understanding.
They felt relieved seeing her becoming engrossed!
After explaining everything to her again, they went out.
Bai Bing drove to the company, and Lin Xi jogged towards the direction of the school.
Only upon reaching the school did he realize it wasn’t training season and there was no need to arrive so early!
He stayed in the dormitory for a while and then went to the main teaching building with Peng Bo and two others.
The first class was Financial Studies.
Upon entering the classroom, he found everyone had arrived, as this was the first class of their university life for the students!
Otherwise, based on what he knew, having full attendance in university classrooms was extremely challenging.
Probably only during exams!
"Boss, isn’t that our class president from Class Six?" Fourth Brother Cui Hua suddenly said to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi looked towards the direction Cui Hua pointed.
Li Neng’s tall stature, along with the crutch, was quite conspicuous; he stood out remarkably in the entire classroom...
Um, this idiom is slightly unsuitable, but that’s roughly the meaning!
Li Neng glanced at Lin Xi and the others, immediately lowered his head, his eyelids involuntarily twitching!
The expression, fearing Lin Xi would take a look at him!
In fact, up until now, he had developed a fright towards Lin Xi, as he spent almost a month in college in the hospital, all because of Lin Xi.
Lin Xi walked past him without doing anything!
After all, a person like him was a small character. If he didn’t seek trouble, Lin Xi wouldn’t bother with him.
Then Lin Xi sat down beside Gu Xiaoxian.
While Peng Bo and the two others pursed their lips and found three vacant seats in the back.
"Did you have breakfast? Xiaoxian," Lin Xi asked Gu Xiaoxian.
Gu Xiaoxian shyly lowered her head slightly, softly humming a response to indicate that she did eat.
"By the way, how’s your mom’s business going?"
Since the mother and daughter didn’t want to accept his aid, he asked to find out how the vegetable selling business was doing.
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxian mumbled, "About, about, about, very well!"
Lin Xi, somewhat surprised, "That’s great!"
Gu Xiaoxian seemed puzzled by Lin Xi’s reaction.
"What’s wrong?" Lin Xi asked curiously.
"The good business is because, because, because of you!" she said softly.
"Me?" Lin Xi was bewildered.
Gu Xiaoxian explained, "Since that time at the market, many people like those before have been buying vegetables from my mom!"
"That’s why my mom’s business is doing well!"
"Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so good, considering mom just started selling vegetables!"
"Oh!" Lin Xi pondered slightly and understood what had happened,
This situation wasn’t difficult to analyze; people like Xu Hong aren’t oblivious. Witnessing Lin Xi’s help for Gu Lan and her mom, they likely started purchasing vegetables.
However, this reminded Lin Xi that although it wasn’t direct aid, helping in this manner couldn’t be controlled!
Then, Gu Xiaoxian continued, "Could you ask them not to do that?"
"Mom says they likely can’t eat that much, and buying excess just leads to waste!"
What Lin Xi didn’t know was that Xu Hong and others’ actions directly resulted in Gu Lan selling out her vegetables within an hour every morning!
This made people nearby rather envious; after all, she had such a lovely daughter!
Lin Xi nodded, "I’ll talk to them, actually this wasn’t my instruction, I had no idea."
"However, maybe they’re buying for themselves, considering we run various businesses that need supplies!"
"Of course, I’ll talk to them!"
Naturally, Lin Xi only agreed verbally, without intending to stop Xu Hong and the others.
Gu Xiaoxian, unaware of Lin Xi’s thoughts, felt grateful to Lin Xi, recognizing his help.
Otherwise, her family wouldn’t know where they’d be living now!
Meanwhile, Li Neng at the front relaxed considerably upon seeing Lin Xi not targeting him with anything.
Just then, the Financial Studies lecturer arrived, appearing like a professor in his sixties.
The professor introduced himself, immediately causing a stir among the students below.
As he was a very renowned professor, not only in Jiangnan University but nationwide.
Moreover, he was reputedly humorous in his lectures, significantly benefiting those taking the course!
