Chapter 1003: Xiao Chong Extra 47_3
More rare than oyster pearls, these are Sea Snail Pearls, with a stunning pink-orange hue.
Lin Wanwan, of course, didn’t know the story behind the earrings; she was captivated by their beauty, falling more in love with them the more she looked, wishing she could get an ear piercing immediately to try them on.
"The pearls here seem to be pink!" Lin Wanwan was a bit unsure, "Are they really pearls? They look like it, but I’m not quite sure."
"They’re pearls from the ocean, Sea Snail Pearls, do you like them?"
"Of course I like them, thank you." Lin Wanwan looked up and gave him a bright smile, then continued to look down at the earrings.
After a while, Lin Wanwan suddenly sighed, "Ah, but getting an ear piercing is so painful, I’m scared. A girl in the dorm next door got hers pierced last semester, and it got infected later, needed eye ointment for two or three weeks to heal, so scary."
Xiao Chong chuckled, "If I had known you were so torn, I would have chosen a necklace instead."
"No, I want these earrings." Lin Wanwan cherished the earrings, holding them to her heart with the box, and said with a smile, "Once I’ve built up my courage, I’ll go get a piercing."
"Alright, as long as you’re happy. I’ll accompany you when you’re ready to go."
"Mm."
Back home in the evening, Lin Wanwan secretly took out the handmade chocolates from her suitcase and placed them on the bedside table.
While she was in the bathroom taking a shower, Xiao Chong was sorting through his luggage, and ended up finding a box of little umbrellas in his bag.
Xiao Chong was momentarily stunned upon seeing them, but quickly realized that his parents must have packed them, most likely his father.
To be honest, despite living two lifetimes, this was the first time Xiao Chong had this kind of thing in his hands.
His curiosity piqued, slow and methodical, he started to open it, taking one out, just as Lin Wanwan stepped out of the bathroom.
Even if she’s never cooked pork, she’s seen pigs run — these are typically placed on small shelves beside the checkout counters in supermarkets, so Lin Wanwan had certainly seen them before.
Seeing Xiao Chong holding one, her face immediately turned red as she hesitated at the bathroom door.
Xiao Chong looked quite composed, showing no embarrassment at being caught.
In terms of shamelessness and thinking ahead, ordinary people really weren’t a match for Xiao Chong, who’s been in office for a lifetime, not to mention Lin Wanwan, who’s only eighteen years and four months old and has never left the Ivory Tower.
Xiao Chong put down the little umbrella, walked over to Lin Wanwan, and without saying a word, picked her up like a princess and placed her on the soft big bed, lowering himself to touch her nose with his while smiling slightly, "Wanwan, you smell so nice."
Lin Wanwan nervously clenched the bedsheet beneath her, her eyes involuntarily glancing toward the thing Xiao Chong casually placed on the bedside table.
Xiao Chong kissed her cheek, seeing her eyelashes trembling with tension, he couldn’t help but chuckle, "If I said I didn’t prepare this, would you believe me?"
Lin Wanwan lowered her gaze and softly said something.
"What?" Even with Xiao Chong’s good hearing, he couldn’t catch what she said.
Perhaps he heard it, but wasn’t sure.
Lin Wanwan didn’t believe he didn’t understand, and annoyed, she pushed against his chest, "Go away."
"Wanwan, you’re so wonderful, how could I resist?" Xiao Chong held onto Lin Wanwan and laughed heartily, not wanting to care about anything else, pulled the blanket, and began exploring.
The big car can’t be used, but the bicycle can still be explored a bit.
The next day, upon waking up, Lin Wanwan felt too weak even to brush her teeth; her hand was too sore!
Xiao Chong didn’t appear especially refreshed either, after all, there wasn’t actually any driving, it was just pure physical labor.
They didn’t go out that day; having been away for a month, most things at home needed to be unpacked and washed.
Although Xiao Chong hired a part-time cleaner for the cleaning, Lin Wanwan still preferred to handle the bedding herself since they are more personal items.
Watching Lin Wanwan bustle around, Xiao Chong joked that she was like a busy little bee, promptly being pulled into housekeeping by her.
As the new semester began, Lin Wanwan stayed off-campus with Xiao Chong for three days, returning to her dormitory the day before registration.
Among her roommates, only Chen Tianying was there; Wu Xiangxiang and Yan Yufei were to arrive the next day.
Lin Wanwan exchanged hometown New Year’s specialties with Chen Tianying, chatted for a bit, and then started organizing their respective bedding, cabinets, and chairs.
In their dorm room, Chen Tianying was the organizing and storage expert, having tidied her bed and desk meticulously before leaving for the winter break.
While Lin Wanwan was an expert in assistance, and had already washed and dried the bedding and mosquito nets for the new semester in the washing machine at her house off-campus.
Though there is a washing machine on each floor of the dormitory building, Lin Wanwan found the public use too unclean for bulky items, preferring to wash them at home off-campus.
Since she had the means, why not use them?
