Chapter 127: Chapter 99: You wouldn't compete with my daughter for a man, right?_3
"Talk human."
"I want to make money to buy a house, a car, and marry a beautiful wife."
Xu Musen said with a chuckle, feeling quite relaxed around this beautiful counselor.
Bai Xin laughed softly, sipping her coffee, "I thought you were going to take the idol debut route, considering all those videos of you singing on the school forum these past few days."
"The idol route would take at least a couple of years to get off the ground; I can't wait that long."
"Haha, so you're planning to earn your dowry within two years?"
"After all, no one complains about having too much money; it's always good to save up a bit more."
Save up a bit more? So you're planning to marry several wives and bring them home?
It seems the forum was right, this young man is probably a playboy.
Bai Xin glanced out of the corner of her eye, she popped out a USB drive and handed it to him, then stood up and found an application form from the box behind her.
"Fill this out first, I'll submit it for you later."
"Sure thing."
Xu Musen happily filled in the information and then left.
Bai Xin looked at the completed application form, gaining a new appreciation for Xu Musen, the young man.
She picked up a pen, ready to write her own recommendation.
Shortly after, there was a knock at the door.
"Come in."
As her words fell, Xu Musen reappeared with a beaming smile.
"What are you doing back here?"
"Bringing some sweet treats for the hardworking teacher before lunch."
Xu Musen was holding a cup of milk tea and some cake desserts in his hands.
He walked over and placed them directly on her desk.
Bai Xin looked at these little treats that young girls would like, her eyes teasing him, "Is it because you tried to give them to some other girl and she didn't accept it that you're giving them to me?"
"No way, I bought them especially for you, don't look down on it."
Xu Musen put down the treats and quickly took off.
Bai Xin didn't even get the chance to refuse.
"This young man…"
Bai Xin shook her head with a smile, looking at the milk tea and desserts on her desk.
She couldn't remember the last time she had had these treats.
Once a woman reaches a certain age, she always becomes a bit anxious about her figure, cutting out sugar and oil and making sure to do the right amount of yoga exercises.
That's how you keep belly fat at bay and maintain a good shape for your bust and hips.
It's not about pleasing others, it's just that she also thinks it looks good.
Every day, she watches her students exchange milk tea and sweets.
This is the first time a student has ever given her milk tea.
Looking at these calorie bombs in front of her.
Bai Xin actually felt a bit tempted.
She took a bite of the little cake, and sipped on the milk tea.
Sweet, indeed, it brought an unexpectedly pleasant sweetness to a hot summer day.
Not bad at all.
Is this what it's like for young people in love these days?
The ringtone of the cellphone went off.
"Big Bai Frost"
Seeing this contact name, her somewhat chilly face suddenly revealed a girlish anticipation.
She picked up the call, speaking,
"Well, look who's calling, why have you decided to give me a call all of a sudden?"
"Of course, to visit my precious daughter at the university, and to check on you, a lonesome old maid."
On the other end of the phone, a knowledgeable and graceful voice came through, and the two chatted for a while.
Moments later, the office door was pushed open.
The person who came in was none other than Liu Rushuang, dressed in a light red cheongsam.
"Little Bai, long time no see."
Liu Rushuang entered and immediately gave Bai Xin a warm hug.
The balls collided, a spectacular sight.
Throughout history, it's always been the left side that wins in a match of curves.
Overall, Liu Rushuang still had the upper hand.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while.
"You're saying Ming Yue got into Hu Hai University too? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I probably wouldn't even recognize her now."
Bai Xin brewed a cup of tea for her, speaking with a hint of nostalgia as it had been many years since they last met.
"I've just been so busy recently. School has started for so many days, and this is the first time I finally had time to come take a look. How about you? I thought you didn't eat sugar; why are you suddenly in the mood for milk tea now?"
Liu Rushuang couldn't help asking while looking at the milk tea and desserts placed on her table.
"A student brought it to me."
"A student? Male or female?"
Liu Rushuang also showed a gossipy expression.
Bai Xin didn't answer, but Liu Rushuang covered her mouth, laughing with interest, "Xiao Bai, you're not finally coming around and planning to date, are you? But isn't going after your own student a bit too desperate?"
"Go on, you always tease me like this. What about you? Are you still single after all these years?"
Liu Rushuang smiled and nodded, "I got used to being alone. Now, I just want to take care of my daughter and, by the way, secure my future son-in-law early."
"Son-in-law? Is it that little boy who always followed Ming Yue around that you mentioned before?" Bai Xin remembered seeing him once, many years ago.
"Yes, he's at Hu Hai University now too. I'll introduce you to him sometime."
"That's nice. Hard to believe our kids are grown up enough to be talking about marriage. Seems like we really are getting old."
Bai Xin nodded and sighed, took another sip of her milk tea, and looked at her well-maintained figure.
Always admiring herself, there was an inevitable sense of loneliness sometimes.
"Xiao Bai, with your figure and charm, you're at the most perfect age for a woman
When you were a trainee teacher, there were always young boys confessing to you. If you ask me, you shouldn't stay single—find a young guy; they're full of vigor, and who knows, it might make you feel young again."
Liu Rushuang joked.
"Come on, stop being so improper." Bai Xin's cheeks turned a slight red; the verbal exchanges between women could be as fierce as those between men.
"You had so many admirers before that the snacks they sent daily could have stocked a small store, and this is the first time I've seen you accept a young man's milk tea. You should be careful; young people easily get carried away. By accepting his milk tea, they'll think you're acknowledging their actions. These young guys can be quite persistent."
Liu Rushuang spoke with a grin, after all, her best friend's figure, looks, and charm were always the center of attention anywhere she went.
When she first became a teacher, there were always a few young boys who confessed to her every year, some of which were quite impulsive and extreme cases.
Bai Xin, however, shook the milk tea in her hand and showed a smile.
"This boy won't."
"Why not?" Liu Rushuang asked curiously.
"Because he could be a playboy; he's used to giving milk tea to girls."
"???"
Liu Rushuang was momentarily stunned, then laughed, "For you to call him a playboy, this young man must be quite something."
"He is quite something. Sometimes, the way he talks makes me feel like he's my peer, and I feel quite relieved handing over matters to him. Just now he came to apply for the university's entrepreneurial fund, claiming he wants to save up to get a wife."
Bai Xin stood up to prepare a cup of coffee from the machine, continuing, "He's been quite the talk of the campus recently, the school forum is full of posts about him."
She was turned away from Liu Rushuang and making coffee, not noticing the sudden shift in Liu Rushuang's gaze.
A moment ago, she had been playfully advocating the benefits of a young love interest to her best friend.
And now, this young man turns out to be her future son-in-law?
Isn't this like putting a green hat on her own daughter's head?
This is the young man she had reared from a young age, surely her own best friend couldn't snatch him away.
Otherwise, what would they call it in the future?
"I call you sister; do you call me mom?"
Liu Rushuang suddenly had a wary look akin to Yao Ming Yue's.
"Bai Xin."
"Hmm?"
Bai Xin lifted the coffee to test the temperature.
"You wouldn't fall for a man younger than yourself, right?"
"???"
