Chapter 3603: Chapter 3595: Requirements for a Road Trip

Early the next morning, Lin Yi first went to pick up the car, then headed to Jinyue Mansion.

On the way there, Lin Yi kept thinking about the mission.

If they didn’t have any plans for a self-driving trip,

then there was no way to make this work.

If he tried too hard to talk them into it, they might even think he was trying to harvest their kidneys.

After waiting in the underground garage for a bit, he saw the two of them stroll out unhurriedly.

Chen Yuying’s outfit was the same as always.

The main style was still business chic.

But Chen Yutong’s outfit was much more toned down.

A hoodie with jeans, covering herself up tightly.

There were two classes today, so he had to drop off Chen Yuying first, then take her.

"What’s wrong with you, are you on your period? Why are you so gloomy?"

Chen Yuying, sitting beside him, gave Lin Yi a look.

Both angry and even more angry.

Obviously you’re the one who caused this, and you’re still pretending you don’t know.

"No, I just didn’t sleep well yesterday, so I’m in a bad mood."

"If you’re in a bad mood, you can go travel a bit."

Lin Yi said with a straight face:

"Best if it’s a self-driving trip."

"Eh, that actually doesn’t sound bad."

"You still have class." Chen Yuying cut in.

"You need a balance between work and rest. When your state is bad you have to adjust; sharpening the axe won’t delay the chopping of firewood."

Chen Yuying thought of what happened last night.

It did kind of make sense.

"I think Lin Bro is right. Studying really can’t be rushed, you need to balance work and rest."

"You still have the nerve to talk about rushing things?"

Chen Yuying shot her a sideways glare.

"If I remember right, the day after tomorrow there’s an IELTS quiz. If you can get a five, I’ll let you go."

"No way, I haven’t even been studying that long."

"That’s a hard rule. Think about it yourself."

"Then let Lin Bro go to class with me. If I’ve got a handsome guy sitting next to me, I’ll have some motivation."

"What kind of problem is that—why do you have to drag someone along for everything you do?"

"Mainly because it’s boring."

"Fine, let him go with you. Just happens he can keep an eye on you."

"Hehe."

Lin Yi drove, thinking to himself.

To actually complete this damn mission,

he still had to get her quiz score up to a five. That was kind of pushing it.

Soon, Lin Yi pulled up at the company.

After dropping off Chen Yuying, he took Chen Yutong to the tutoring center.

"Lin Bro, whether I get to go on the road trip is all on you."

"You’re the one taking the test, it’s got nothing to do with me."

Lin Yi felt that if he were the one taking it,

getting a full score wouldn’t be a problem.

"You have to supervise me."

"If studying worked just by supervision, everyone would get into Qingbei. You need to put in your own effort, stop going to those messy places all the time."

"I don’t actually go that often. It’s mainly to keep Little Xi company."

"That so-called bestie of yours?"

"Yeah."

Lin Yi knew Chen Yutong was talking about last night, she just didn’t say it outright.

"What’s up with her?"

"She got a boyfriend overseas. Long-distance, you know, there are always little problems, so she often calls us out to drink."

"Then don’t do long-distance. Can’t she just find a local boyfriend?"

"How can you make sense of love? They clicked, you can’t just swap him out."

"But with long-distance, there’ll be all kinds of issues. The second she chose it, she should’ve thought of this outcome."

"True. She also told me she wants to go see her boyfriend soon, and wants me to go with her."

"Your sister won’t even agree to a self-driving trip, you can forget about going abroad."

"But I really want to go have some fun."

"You’d better first think about how to handle that quiz."

"I might as well study how to cheat, see if that’s possible."

"You need to have confidence in yourself. If you think you can’t do it, then you really can’t."

"I get all that in theory, I just can’t do it."

"That’s because you haven’t been pushed to the edge yet."

Lin Yi said:

"When there’s a chance, go to one of your sister’s dinner meetings. Watch her bowing and scraping, smiling at everyone, and you’ll feel like studying is nothing."

Chen Yutong’s expression suddenly changed.

"There’s actually stuff like that?!"

"What else did you think? That your sister has some special status, and people just line up to hand her business?"

Lin Yi said:

"And it’s not just drinking and smiling. Even when people are openly staring at her, she has to endure it. Life is nowhere near as easy as you think."

"Got it, I’ll study hard."

Buzz buzz buzz...

Right then, Chen Yutong’s phone rang.

Lin Yi glanced over.

It was a voice message from Zhou Yunxi.

"Tongtong, what are you doing?"

"On the way to class."

"You’re still in the mood for class? I’m really not in the mood for anything right now. How about we go travel a bit and clear our heads?"

"I want to go too. Lin Bro said we could go on a road trip, but my sister said I have to get a five on the quiz first."

"Ugh, self-driving is so boring. Let’s go travel abroad, I don’t want to stay in the country."

"Sounds to me like you just want to go abroad to see your boyfriend, right?"

"That’s part of it. And travel a bit while we’re at it. I want you to come with me."

"I’d have to convince my sister."

"It’s fine, I’ll pay and take you out to play. We won’t spend your sister’s money."

"It’s not about who pays. If I just leave without her permission, she’ll definitely blow up. I only have this one sister."

Lin Yi drove, listening to the two of them talk.

Although Chen Yutong was a bit of a troublemaker,

in her heart, Chen Yuying held a very important place.

That was something no one could replace.

"We won’t be gone that long, just two or three days. You can find an excuse and secretly arrange the time."

"If it’s just two or three days, there might be a chance."

Chen Yutong thought for a moment:

"But it’s not urgent. Let’s talk about it later."

"Okay, I’ll wait for your news."

After a few more lines, Chen Yutong put her phone away.

"Sigh..."

Chen Yutong let out a sigh.

Leaning back in the seat, she looked a bit troubled.

"Where does she want you to go?"

"Xin Country. Her boyfriend goes to school there." Chen Yutong said:

"He’s probably a slacker too, went over there to get an easy diploma. It’s pretty similar to the path my sister planned for me."

"That still counts as a way out. Might not fool the big companies, but it’s an advantage when applying to smaller ones."

"But I really do want to go clear my head. I don’t care where, as long as I can get out."

"Your sister won’t agree to you going abroad. A road trip still has some hope—as long as you study hard and get a decent score. Otherwise you can go home and dream about it; you can have anything in your dreams."

"Yeah, even if it’s not for the trip, I still have to study hard."

Chen Yutong said:

"Otherwise I won’t even get to touch the doorsill of a big company."

"So you’ve figured it out?"

"Yeah." Chen Yutong said:

"What the head of HR at Lingyun Group said, I’ve been thinking about it these past few days. She really had a point. Being good at studying doesn’t mean you’re just a bookworm; maybe you’re even more capable. My old way of thinking was kind of naive."

"It’s great you can see it that way."

Lin Yi parked the car. "Come on, let’s get to class."
