Chapter 94: I Don’t Want to Spend the New Year Abroad (Filled)
After arriving home, Lin Hui did not go upstairs immediately, but called Lin Qingchuan.
Yu Jingmo took a look and felt that he was going to talk about the physics competition, so he had no intention of staying and turned around to go upstairs.
She had been outside all day, painting and strolling around the streets, and just wanted to take a quick shower.
But as soon as I took a step, I felt something was wrong.
When I turned my head, I met two pairs of eyes that were somewhat similar but clearly different.
"…What are you doing?"
Lin Hui looked back at Lin Qingchuan, then turned back: "Together?"
Yu Jingmo: "You guys want to talk about the competition?"
"Yeah," Lin responded.
Yu Jingmo wanted to say that she had no objection, but when she met the gazes of the two men, she said nothing and went to the living room with them.
In fact, he had said almost everything he wanted to say before, and Lin Hui only asked Lin Qingchuan about his decision.
Lin Qingchuan was silent for a while, "I haven't thought about it yet."
Yu Jingmo was a little distracted at first, but when he heard this, he turned his gaze to him, a little surprised: "Is there any other reason?"
She originally thought that he was planning to go, but he asked Lin Hui because of time constraints, and also asked her at the same time.
But now that they all agreed, Lin Qingchuan still hadn't thought it through yet. It was obvious that he was worried about more than just the issue of his family's disapproval.
But this time Lin Qingchuan didn't say a word, and his expression seemed to be gradually becoming uncomfortable.
Yu Jingmo raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Hui.
She touched her chin and began to speculate: "Don't want to go abroad?"
Although his family is wealthy, Lin Qingchuan has never been abroad to travel since he was a child. It is normal for him to feel a little uneasy...right?
Lin Qingchuan pursed his lips and said, "No, I just haven't thought about it yet."
Yu Jingmo was really surprised this time. Neither the Lin Qingchuan in the book nor the one she had known for so long were such hesitant people.
Why are you so entangled in this matter?
Lin Hui also looked at Lin Qingchuan and said after a while, "Don't you want to celebrate the New Year abroad?"
Lin Qingchuan paused and said nothing, but Yu Jingmo could tell that Lin Hui was right.
It turns out that Lin Qingchuan also has this kind of plot, and she thought he didn't care much about it.
[The host has another mission! ]
Yu Jingmo paused.
【Let Lin Qingchuan participate in this competition. 】
She waited, but there was no further news. She asked in surprise, "No more?"
[Yes! As a vicious stepmother, I must keep him away from home during the New Year. Even if there is only a 1% chance, I must try! ]
Yu Jingmo: “…”
He raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Qingchuan. He still had no expression, but he was visibly uncomfortable.
"Is there any other reason besides this?" Yu Jingmo asked.
This time, Lin Qingchuan didn't remain silent for long and shook his head.
"If you want to go, go. It's just for this year."
Lin Qingchuan raised his eyes.
Yu Jingmo continued: "Besides, we may not catch up in time."
[Host, we have just arrived in time for the finals! ]
"……Shut up."
【Good QvQ】
Lin Hui then said, "The registration deadline is in three days. Think it over today and tomorrow. It's up to you whether to go or not."
He paused, then added, "Don't worry too much."
Lin Qingchuan also paused.
Yu Jingmo looked at the two of them. Although he didn't quite understand what Lin Hui meant by the last sentence, he also said, "Yes, there is nothing to worry about. It's the New Year every year. It's not just one year, right!"
Lin Qingchuan looked at her and nodded.
There is nothing much to say about this, and Yu Jingmo can see that Lin Qingchuan wants to go.
We just need to solve the problem that he doesn't want to spend the New Year away from home.
But there was no rush and she really wanted to take a shower, so after the short family meeting she went upstairs to wash up.
I originally wanted to talk to Lin Qingchuan again to find out whether he simply didn't want to celebrate the New Year abroad or if this was just a superficial reason.
She always felt that Lin Hui seemed to know something, and Lin Qingchuan also knew what Lin Hui knew, but she was the only one who didn't know!
Damn, I feel left out.
However, after blow-drying her hair, she just lay in bed for a while, and when she opened her eyes again, she was woken up by the alarm clock.
"..."
She was a night owl the night before and got up early in the morning. She just wanted to lie down but ended up falling asleep.
Fortunately the heating was on high.
Yu Jingmo got himself ready and went downstairs to have breakfast.
When we arrived at the restaurant, Lin Hui and Lin Qingchuan were already sitting at the dining table.
"Good morning." Yu Jingmo said as he sat down.
Lin Hui poured her a cup of soy milk and said, "Good morning, are you going today too?"
Yu Jingmo took a sip first, "Well, I'll draw a part today, and it should be finished tomorrow if I have more time."
Lin Hui didn't say anything else, and the three of them ate breakfast quietly.
After breakfast, Lin Qingchuan was still sitting on the chair, "I'll sign up later."
Yu Jingmo and Lin Hui both paused slightly.
Yu Jingmo: "Have you thought it through?"
"Yeah," Lin Hui nodded, "Only high school students can go to the competition. The first year of high school is not very busy, and I don't want to miss it."
He paused again, looked at Lin Hui and turned to Yu Jingmo, "What you said makes sense. It doesn't necessarily coincide with the Spring Festival."
They seem to be getting along well recently. The family crisis should not break out, and the Spring Festival next year will not return to the coldness of the past.
"..." Yu Jingmo smiled and cleared his throat, "Right, don't worry too much now."
Lin Hui also said, "Prepare well."
Lin Qingchuan responded.
Before Yu Jingmo left the house, he received a notification from the system:
[Mission completed! 2500 million has been received, please check! ]
After one night, she was quite satisfied that it was not the lowest level.
……
Today he still only painted for more than four hours. When Yu Jingmo got home, Lin Hui and Lin Qingchuan were both at home.
It’s just that Lin Hui was in the study, while Lin Qingchuan was in the living room.
Yu Jingmo sat on the sofa to take a rest and asked, "When is the preliminary round?"
Lin Qingchuan put down his phone and said, "Next month on the 10th."
Yu Jingmo: "Isn't it less than a month?"
"Well, the preliminary round is the provincial selection, then the national selection, and finally the final."
Yu Jingmo thought about it. The system said that the final would coincide with the Spring Festival. This year’s Spring Festival is in February, which means that the competition will last less than four months.
There were three games in total, and it was actually quite tense.
Yu Jingmo looked at the thick black hair on Lin Qingchuan's head and said, "Want to eat pig brain? Ask the kitchen to make some for you. Like cures like."
Lin Qingchuan: “…No need.”
Yu Jingmo was still a little disappointed, "Okay."
Lin Qingchuan is a handsome boy after all. It would be so sad if he became bald due to physics in the future!
Lin Qingchuan suddenly felt a chill on his scalp. He looked at Yu Jingmo, who seemed to be thinking about something and whose expression kept changing. He was silent for a moment, then went upstairs quickly with his phone in hand.
The next day, Yu Jingmo stayed at Mo Zijin's house until after eight o'clock in the afternoon and finished the last stroke of the painting.
