As soon as the holidays passed, the children started school one after another.
The third child chose the painting major at Imperial University, and the fourth child chose her favorite history department instead of the "economics" proposed by Chen Xinzhi and Xue Ling.
Everyone respects their choice and only asks them to study hard. Since they choose what they like, they must stick to it.
Xue Xin still insisted on learning to play chess, but Mr. Qi was not willing to teach her anymore because he had been ill for two or three months and after recovering, he always felt that he was unable to do his best and his body was not as good as before.
Later, Mr. Qi introduced her to a new master, a world-class chess master, and asked her to learn slowly from the master, never give up her talent, and persist in learning hard.
Xue Xin participated in a domestic competition before the start of school and won third place in the country.
She presented the trophy to Mr. Qi and took a photo with him. She promised to win world-class awards in the future and give each trophy to him, the enlightenment master, to share with him.
Mr. Qi cried with joy, saying that he had countless students in his life, and he had students all over the world, but he only had Xiaoxin as a student in chess, and he felt extremely reluctant to give up.
Xue Xin promised to come often to play chess with him on weekends and bring him the most delicious fruits imported from Wenguo.
Mr. Qi was very happy and said he would wait for her to play chess at the same place.
Cheng Huanchong's comic book collection has finally been published, and the book signing happened to be on the weekend of the first week after school started.
After he took the car home, he rummaged through the cabinets to look for clothes, but couldn't find anything suitable.
"Mom! Come and help me!"
Xue Ling put away her phone funny and asked: "When will you have a shirt and a suit?"
Where can I find something that’s not in the closet?”
Forehead?
Cheng Huanchong asked with a smile: “Can’t we wear a T-shirt and jeans?
I’m going to find a brand new T-shirt and add a pair of black jeans.”
"Try not to."
Xue Ling said: "After all, it is a book signing meeting for book fans. How can you dress so casually in such a serious occasion?"
Cheng Huanchong couldn't help but ask: "What should I wear?
I don’t like wearing suits – it’s too awkward!”
"Have you worn it?"
Xue Ling asked funnyly.
Cheng Huanchong shook his head: "That's not true."
"Then how do you know it's awkward?"
Xue Ling raised an eyebrow and asked.
Cheng Huanchong laughed awkwardly.
"You don't have to think about it to know it's awkward! I feel awkward just looking at it, let alone putting it on.
Mom, it’s actually just a book signing meeting, not a serious and serious event.”
Xue Ling thought for a while and asked: "How about jeans and a casual shirt?
Okay?
It’s casual but has a bit more seriousness and formality.”
"Fine."
Cheng Huanchong put his arm around her shoulders and said with a smile: "You are my mother, you make the decision.
No matter how many copies are sold tomorrow, I will share the royalties with you equally!"
Xue Ling suppressed a smile: "Thank you, I'm looking forward to it very much."
"Mom~~" Cheng Huanchong glared and hummed: "I seem to see Chi Guoguo's ridicule in your eyes!"
Xue Ling narrowed her eyes and looked at him, and said in a deep voice: "That's nonsense! It's obviously Chi Guoguo's encouragement and expectation!"
"Hahaha!"
Cheng Huanchong acted coquettishly: "Mom, please accompany me to buy a shirt!"
"good."
Xue Ling said: "Autumn is coming soon, so I have to buy some autumn clothes for your grandparents in advance.
Come on, let’s go shopping.”
After a while, the bodyguard drove in front, and the mother and son sat in the back of the luxury car and talked.
Cheng Huanchong couldn't help but ask: "Mom, second brother, he still has a few weeks to go on internship, right?"
"Um."
Xue Ling asked curiously: "Have you met him in school?"
"No!"
Cheng Huanchong replied: "When I asked him to go to the canteen to eat together, he always said he didn't have time to go out.
I seriously doubt that he is not a student of Teito University!"
Xue Ling smiled and explained: "He was busy opening a company with his classmates a while ago, and I heard that it has just stabilized recently.
He must be really busy, otherwise he wouldn't even go home for dinner on weekends.
It's not like you don't know that your second brother likes to eat it the most."
"He should be home for dinner tomorrow."
Cheng Huanchong said: "He asked me to leave three sets of books for him. He said he wanted to give them to someone, but he didn't know who he wanted to give them to."
Xue Ling guessed: "Probably a girl."
"certainly not!"
Cheng Huanchong said seriously: "Ninety percent of my readers are boys, because all I draw are science fiction themes!"
Xue Ling nodded "Oh" and said: "Duoduo's girlfriend is also a loyal fan of yours. She said she will definitely go to the queue early tomorrow.
Duoduo will pick her up and go with her, and asked me to tell you in advance that we must give them both a discount."
"cut!"
Cheng Huanchong laughed and scolded: "The billionaire CEO asked me to give me a discount of more than ten yuan! This is the biggest joke in the imperial capital this year! Hahahaha!"
Xue Ling looked out the window and couldn't help but ask: "Where should we go?"
"Let's go to Ronghua Mall."
Cheng Huanchong replied: "The nearby streets are also quite lively, and they are all luxury brand stores."
Xue Linghu asked: "What price do you want to buy?
Some of them over there cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, which are not suitable for you students to buy."
"At least more than a thousand yuan."
Cheng Huanchong hesitated: "I am still a slightly famous cartoonist. I should be able to wear more than a thousand shirts."
"Okay, the street in front should be more suitable."
Xue Ling explained: "They are generally hundreds or even thousands of fashion clothing stores, and they are all brands for young people."
Cheng Huanchong responded immediately.
So the mother and son got out of the car and went shopping in a clothing store.
Xue Ling always only chooses the right things when shopping, and doesn't care too much about the price, so after visiting two elderly clothing stores, the autumn clothes for the three elderly people were bought.
Cheng Huanchong had never bought a shirt before. After trying on several pieces, he always felt uncomfortable and still came up empty-handed.
"Mom, please help me pick one, I'm almost dazzled."
Xue Ling picked around and found a pure snow-white casual shirt with no decorations and a novel and unique design on the collar and corners.
After Cheng Huanchong replaced him, he became taller and more handsome.
The waiter's eyes lit up and he praised: "Handsome guy! You dress better than the model!"
Cheng Huanchong smiled shyly and asked Xue Ling's opinion.
Xue Ling gave a thumbs up: "You are fair enough and look energetic enough.
Okay, just this one."
My mother has good taste, and the clothes she likes are naturally not cheap. Cheng Huanchong paid more than two thousand with his credit card, twisting the bag with his heart, and secretly regretting it.
"Mom, it's a bit expensive."
He muttered: "I have never bought such expensive clothes myself."
Xue Ling smiled and said: "Son, remember to work harder tomorrow and work hard to earn back the money for these clothes."
Cheng Huanchong: "..." Xue Ling took two steps forward and was about to turn a corner - but stopped.
"Lao San, look at the girl in front of you...is she Xiaohan?"
Cheng Huanchong followed his mother's line of sight and saw his cousin wearing a revealing miniskirt, a midriff-baring top, strange makeup, and long boots. She was hugging the arm of a young man dressed as "Shamate" and being intimate.
