"Where is Sister Ren planning to move?"

The landlady was curious, her eyes starting to size up Xu Lin, wondering if this was the legendary son of Sister Ren.

And there was a girl, whom Sister Ren often referred to as her goddaughter or should say, her precious daughter.

Ms. Ren said, "Yes, to Celestial Jade Pavilion, we're living there now."

"Did Sister Ren buy a house there?"

The house prices at Celestial Jade Pavilion are quite high, averaging between thirty to fifty thousand, with some even reaching forty to fifty thousand per square meter.

Ms. Ren pointed at Xu Lin, "This is my son; he bought the house for me."

Everyone familiar with Ms. Ren knew that she often spoke about her son, not just now when Xu Lin had made a name for himself, but even years ago when Xu Lin was in elementary school. Ms. Ren would constantly mention him; for a mother, showing off her child is quite normal.

"Hello, big sister."

Xu Lin greeted her, this landlady was around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, quite a beautiful mature woman.

"I've heard your mom mention you many times. You're Xu Lin, right? And also the Mr. Xu from the internet?"

The landlady's gaze was curious as she looked at Xu Lin.

"Yes, that's me."

"Impressive, you are quite handsome and outstanding!"

"Sister, you are also like a flower, your temperament is exceptional!"

"Haha, such sweet talk, you've flattered me!"

The two chatted for ten minutes.

Afterward, they vacated the house and bid farewell. Actually, Ms. Ren and the other party were colleagues, so just a word would suffice.

Dusk fell, and the three of them went out for a feast.

Upon returning home, since Ms. Ren had a lot of luggage, she started packing again after getting back.

Xu Lin didn't get involved with this; he let the two handle it themselves, though if it involved heavy lifting, he would assist.

By around eight o'clock in the evening, everything was settled.

Xu Lin took a hot shower, comfortably flopped on the living room sofa in a relaxed pose.

Ms. Ren sat on the single-seat sofa beside him.

At that moment, Ms. Ren picked up her phone.

Xu Lin noticed she wanted to take a photo of him, "Let me fix my hairstyle first!"

Ms. Ren: "Vain as always!"

Xu Lin tidied his hair, "How about I bow my head and pretend to be deep?"

Ms. Ren: …

"Then quickly pretend to be deep!"

"Hold on!"

So Xu Lin struck a pose like a cool guy online, sitting there letting his bangs fall down while quietly looking at his phone. Ms. Ren was taking a photo of his profile, but based on Xu Lin's outline, it was still clear he possessed both strong bone structure and good skin—definitely a handsome guy.

"Really handsome!"

"Was my dad as handsome as I am when he was young?"

"Your dad was a jerk! Don't mention him!"

Ms. Ren complained, and Xu Lin knew they'd probably had another disagreement recently.

But Ms. Ren continued, "Your dad was actually a bit more handsome when he was young!"

"Really?"

"If you don't believe me, I'll show you the photos!"

As she spoke, Ms. Ren went into the room and brought out a big box.

It was a box Xu Lin had moved today, which contained a lot of photos as Ms. Ren had mentioned.

When she opened it, Xu Lin saw several thick albums inside.

Ms. Ren opened the oldest one first.

Ren Yan said, "This started from 2003, that was when I first met your dad."

"How did you meet him?"

Xu Lin knew his dad went to a second-tier college, but that's more than twenty years ago, and now that college has upgraded to a double first-class institution.

"His school was right across from mine."

Regarding this matter, Ren Yan didn't elaborate much, because at that time Xu Lin's dad was pursuing another girl from Ren Yan's class, Xu Cheng had heard that there was a very pretty girl in the prestigious college across the street, named something or other, a real beauty admired by many. People were afraid to pursue her, so Xu Cheng sneaked over to see what was going on and that's when he saw Ren Yan, thinking she was especially beautiful and mistakingly believed she was that girl. That's how the pursuit began, but he chased the wrong person.

Xu Lin looked at his dad's photos, "Doesn't seem to be as handsome as I am, Ren Yan, you're obviously seeing him as Xi Shi in your lover's eyes, thinking your man is handsome. Look at me, I'm way more dashing than the old man!"

"Get out of here, what do you know?" Ms. Ren shot him a glare.

"Mom, you were really good-looking when you were young, and still are now!"

Rong Xiyi leaned on Ms. Ren's shoulder, gazing at the youthful Ms. Ren in the photos.

The beauty of photos lies in their ability to capture many wonderful memories of the past, even when you're older, you can bring them out to reminisce.

Ms. Ren sighed, "Mom is getting old."

Rong Xiyi hugged her and said, "Not old at all, mom is still so beautiful!"

"What do you say, Xu Lin?" Rong Xiyi asked him.

Xu Lin said, "Actually, you're not quite past your prime, still a bloomy flower!"

"You savvy kid, you really don't know how to talk!"

Ms. Ren pinched Xu Lin's ear, and Xu Lin immediately laughed.

The photos continued.

There were really a lot of Ren Yan's photos, it was Xu Lin's first time seeing so many photos of his dad, along with his mom, both looking quite attractive, and especially back then when they were young, giving off a strong impression of a talented couple, like celestial boy and jade girl.

The first album was mostly photos of the two of them, plus some pictures from when Ms. Ren was in college with good friends.

These good friends were still in touch with Ms. Ren, and whenever they had the time, they would meet up, and Xu Lin knew them all.

Then came the second album, where photos of Xu Lin started to appear, mostly from when he was very young.

Before he was five years old.

"Xu Lin was so adorable as a child!"

Rong Xiyi couldn't help but exclaim.
