Miss Lin is a hunky VTuber today?

"Whether I change back or not doesn't really matter to me."

"Sigh... Fine, then I'll just treat it as raising two lesbian daughters, what else can I do?"

Mr. Xu's tone was somewhat melancholy, yet also quite relaxed.

The children are all grown up, adults, and have their own opinions, so he doesn't want to interfere too much.

"Dad, you're pretty trendy."

Xu Lin was amused; his father had clearly been surfing the internet a lot these past two years, having even learned these words.

"You little rascal, you were probably nowhere to be found while I was surfing the internet."

"Then I should thank Dad for not shooting me on the toilet paper."

"Go to hell!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha."

When do you plan to take over the family business?

After laughing, Mr. Xu lit a cigarette and continued to ask questions.

“I’ll take over when I go back this year, but I’ll still be in Yehai working remotely. I’ll still need you to handle the reception work, since I don’t have the connections.”

"You're about to take over the company, and you still can't let go of your little girlfriend? Can't you bring her back?"

Mr. Xu frowned, looking a little unhappy.

In Northeast China, doing business is all about personal connections. Xu's father was even thinking of introducing her to his network of contacts, but now that they're all gone, what can he do?

"It's not that it's impossible, it's that I'm planning to start a company with my friends here in Yehai."

Xu Lin explained slowly, word by word, a smile playing on his lips as he leaned back in his gaming chair.

“I’ve met a lot of capable friends here. I trust them, so I’m planning to start a business together. You can think of me as someone who’s working for you first, getting familiar with company management.”

"Besides, Dad, you're only fifty. It's not time for you to retire yet. Are you going to stay at home doing nothing?"

They definitely can't stay idle.

Fifty years old. Although he may not be in his prime, for a man like Mr. Xu who has been in the army for three years, maintains a regular schedule, and has an interest in fitness, he is far from needing to retire.

“I didn’t plan for you to take my place so soon. Five years. I’ll give you five years to mess around over there. If you do well, then we’ll find a way to train suitable people to manage the company. If not, then you can come back.”

Mr. Xu was not the kind of person who hesitated, and he supported Xu Lin going out to make his own way, so he made a decision quickly.

"I'll transfer you ten million later as start-up capital."

"Okay, thanks Dad."

Xu Lin was somewhat surprised that a casual phone call made out of homesickness led to such an important decision.

However, since the decision had already been made long ago, it's not too bad.

"You're coming back for the New Year, right? Then I'll get back to work."

"Dad, take care of yourself."

That's the kind of relationship between father and son; a seemingly ordinary sentence contains profound emotions.

Yuzu and Xu's mother are close, while Linjiang and Xu's father are close, and their ways of getting along are completely different.

If it were Yuzi and Xu Ma, they would definitely be all lovey-dovey and affectionate, but neither of them could bring themselves to do it, so in the end they could only have this bland exchange.

The saying goes that the friendship between gentlemen is as pure as water, and that blood is thicker than water, yet the relationship between father and son is just like that of gentlemen.

"Lin-chan...you're really not going back?"

The young lady, who was about to go live, saw Lin-chan on the phone when she entered the room. She noticed Lin-chan's gesture to be quiet and quietly sat down next to her. She asked with some concern.

"Who said I'm not going back? I'm even bringing my girlfriend to meet people during the New Year, aren't I?"

The white-haired girl smiled mischievously, her beautiful features exuding charm, and raised an eyebrow to tease her.

"Get out of here! You're so unserious! Is that what I meant?!"

She gave Lin Jiang a playful punch, but the young lady's expression was still somewhat worried, yet also touched.

"Well, it's my responsibility to take over the family business, but that doesn't mean I can't build another one. With so many friends here and you around, how could I possibly bear to go back?"

With a smile, Lin-chan reverted to her usual serious self.

"However, I still need to retire. I probably won't have time to manage VUP matters anymore."

"Um..."

"Hug me~"

"Okay, hug me."

P.S.: It's been a long time since I wrote anything here. I've completely forgotten what I wrote before. After racking my brains for a while, I've decided to start over. Consider this a volume within a volume.

After that, I updated once a day, mainly to fill in plot holes and wrap things up.

Chapter 77, Section 461: Climbing High and Paying Homage to Ancestors on the Double Ninth Festival

Just as Xu Lin was busy preparing for various matters after graduation and had no time to care about Youzi's life or death, a change quietly occurred.

"Yuzu, come out with me today."

Early in the morning, Yuzu's door was pushed open by Tobi-chan, who coldly called out to her, who was still wide awake.

"Well?"

Yuzu was groggily woken up by Tobi-chan. She sat blankly on the bed, looking completely lost, without even opening her eyes.

"Come out with me, are you coming or not?"

Seeing that she was definitely not fully awake, Yuzu sighed, knowing that the girl must have stayed up late again last night. In her hazy state, Yuzu seemed to feel a cool little hand gently stroking her head, and the voice was gentle that Yuzu hadn't heard in a long time.

When she opened her eyes, she still saw Iris's indifferent face.

But this did not dampen Yuzu's excitement.

More than a week has passed since the last incident, and this is the first time that Yuzuki has taken the initiative to come to her room and ask her to go out together.

Before, we never even went out together, let alone struck up a conversation.

"I go!"

"Ah."

[I didn't even tell you where we were going and you agreed, aren't you afraid I'll sell you off? lol]

On the surface, she remained indifferent, but in her heart, Yuan Chu couldn't help but chuckle and complain about this little girl.

Honestly, how can she face such intense emotions?

.....

After getting dressed and bringing her ID card as suggested by Yuzu, Yuzu washed her face and finally felt more refreshed, but she still couldn't figure out where Yuzu was suddenly taking her.

Sitting in the taxi, looking at her indifferent face, I didn't dare to ask anything, afraid that she would find me annoying and leave me behind.

So when they arrived at the high-speed rail station, Yuzu, still somewhat dazed, bought tickets along with everyone else, and even after boarding the train, she still didn't know why Yuzu had suddenly acted this way.

Just looking at the train ticket, I suddenly realized that the destination was Iris's hometown.

...

"Hey, it's been months! How's Yuanchu doing in the Night Sea?"

After a several-hour train ride, the two got off the train and immediately saw Xueyue, who was still wearing her plain gold-rimmed glasses and had a quiet demeanor but was actually incredibly cheerful.

"You already know the answer, so why are you asking me?"

Yuan Chu rolled her eyes in annoyance. Although she didn't say anything, she wasn't stupid. How could she not know that Xue Yue and a group of people were gossiping about it?

I'm just not in the mood to deal with her right now.

"Besides, shouldn't I be asking you that now? It's been half a month since we last contacted each other. How are things between you and Shuangxue?"

"Haha, well, I have something to do later, here's the key for you."

When asked a question she was embarrassed to answer, Xueyue awkwardly pushed up her glasses, threw a bunch of keys at her, and ran away.

As he passed by Youzi, he patted her on the shoulder meaningfully.

"Go for it, Yuzu Jam! You can do it!"

"what?"

Lack of sleep and the fatigue of the journey meant that although Yuzu had dozed off for a short while on the train while leaning on Yuanchu's shoulder, she was still clearly not fully awake. Her head was stiff, and even Uncle Xu couldn't analyze her current state, let alone micro-expression analysis.

It's completely idiotic; how can you analyze it?

The saying goes, "No moves are the best moves," and being dull is the nemesis of psychology.

"You talk too much, get lost."

The kite waved its hand impatiently, as if shooing away flies.

"Got it!"

Xueyue wasn't angry; she turned around and went into the train station.

......

After getting off the taxi, she boarded the train, then a bus, and finally arrived at Tobi-Hina's house. Only then did Yuzu vaguely understand what Tobi-Hina's series of actions were all for.

"Don't think too much about it, I'll tell you tomorrow."

Seeing her excited expression, Yuanchu playfully punched her, but still took out the bunch of keys from her pocket, took one out and handed it to Youzi.

"This is the house key. You can take this with you when you go out. There are no elevator cards or anything like that in the old community. Just ask the security guard at the gate to open the gate for you."

"You can sleep in this room tonight. We're only staying here for one day."

After handing the key to Yuzu, Tobi-chan turned and went back to her room.

I haven't been back for several months, so the bedroom needs to be tidied up before anyone can live in it.
