Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love-Chapter 367: I Didn’t Come Alone
Lin Yu actually felt quite indifferent about the Spring Festival, because the person he wanted to celebrate it with wasn’t by his side; celebrating with anyone else seemed meaningless.
In this strange country, although there were Chinese people, it still didn’t provide him with much sense of security and belonging.
Lin Yu thought Xie Xiao was right, he really was a child in dire need of love.
So, even though he sometimes looked fierce, it was only on the surface.
The real Lin Yu needed companionship very much.
When he was in a long-distance relationship before, this feeling was not so strong.
What can I say? You know the person you love is looking at the same thing, the same sky, the same moon as you.
Even though you’re eight hours apart by car, if you want to see each other, if you just move, you can meet the person you want to see within a day.
But now it’s different, Lin Yu looked at the tiny bird icon on his phone screen.
He had trapped her, yet he himself had flown far away...
Maybe because it was New Year’s Eve, Lin Yu missed Liu Ou, missed his grandmother... extra today.

He missed home.
After class, Lin Yu packed up his things. Another Chinese classmate asked him, "Lin Yu, aren’t we eating together tonight? Let’s go, let’s go, the seats are all reserved. Have a few drinks, let’s celebrate the New Year together!"
Lin Yu gave a wry smile, "Bro, I’m not going. I need to go back to get a package."

"Leave the package at the door, or have it delivered tomorrow." Deng Wei came over and pulled Lin Yu, "It’s no fun being alone during the holidays. We’re all from the same place, it will be lively at the Chinese restaurant..."
He said, pulling him towards the door.
Lin Yu actually felt tempted, since he would be alone at home anyway.
Right now, he really missed home; going back would probably make him feel quite miserable.
If he went out, he could hear the familiar language, sit together, and at least life would feel lively as they chatted.
When Mi Wei saw Deng Wei dragging Lin Yu out, it seemed that Lin Yu’s face showed reluctance, but was softening.
She hurriedly followed, "Deng, Lin, I want to go too."
But then Lin Yu suddenly remembered the message Liu Ou had just sent him.
She had prepared a gift for him and told him to go back early to get it...
Mi Wei was very pretty, but her interest in him was undisguised in her eyes.
Lin Yu sighed, lowered Deng Wei’s hand, "I should go back first to get the gift, it’s from my girlfriend, I will go and check it out."
Deng Wei and the others knew he had a girlfriend, and at this moment, seeing his insistence, they could tell it was mainly an attempt to avoid Mi Wei.
With a sense of resignation, they also smiled, "Okay then, come over after you get the package, we’ll be celebrating the New Year there tonight!"
Lin Yu nodded, "Okay, thanks, bro!"
Mi Wei, not understanding Chinese, said somewhat unhappily, "Could you gentlemen please show some respect for a lady? Speak in a language I understand?"
Deng Wei, with a grin, said, "Why doesn’t the lady come with me?"
"Lin?" Mi Wei, however, looked at Lin Yu.
Lin Yu just smiled and said, "Have fun."
Then he turned and walked away, with long strides, clearly not wanting to be followed.
Standing there, Mi Wei stamped her foot in annoyance, then turned to Deng Wei beside her, "Deng, am I not attractive?"
Deng Wei shook his head, "No, you’re as exquisite as a doll, very pretty."
"Then why does Lin always avoid me?"
"Because he loves his partner very much. He’s self-disciplined."
"Oh my god, she’s just a girlfriend!"
Deng Wei secretly rolled his eyes and murmured in Chinese, "How could you understand, cultural differences really make it hard to explain!"
Lin Yu didn’t know about this, but once he walked out of the school, he felt much relieved.
He looked down at his phone and replied to Liu Ou, "I’ve finished class, but I haven’t gotten a call from the courier."
"Ah, I left my number, it should have arrived, I asked the delivery person to wait a bit."
Lin Yu smiled, "Okay."
Liu Ou stood up from the sofa on the other side, "Grandma, I’m going to pick up Lin Yu."
Grandma was cooking and responded, "Go on, it’s cold outside, wear your clothes!"
"Sure, Grandma~"
Liu Ou took her coat and headed out, her pace a bit hurried, "I’m leaving now, Grandma~"
The old lady turned her head, only to see the girl’s hurried figure.
A smile crept onto her face.
Suddenly, she felt that coming here and suffering wasn’t so bad after all.
Because she could see her child’s happy smile and see Lin Yu...
It was a pity she was getting on in years, otherwise the two kids wouldn’t have had to work so hard...
When Liu Ou stepped outside, she realized it had started to snow, and the sky was gloomy.
But the pedestrians by the road didn’t seem to be in a hurry, walking slowly.
Liu Ou didn’t bring an umbrella. Hesitating for a couple of seconds, she decided to run forward anyway.
From this position, she could see the entrance to Lin Yu’s apartment.
She had never been there, but Lin Yu had sent her photos and location.
Walking from the school gate to their home normally took seven or eight minutes, Lin Yu said.
Now with the snow, Lin Yu might not have brought an umbrella, probably making him even quicker.
Liu Ou decided to run there and then wait at the entrance.
Lin Yu indeed hadn’t brought an umbrella; in fact, he hadn’t seen it since his roommate borrowed it last time.
So when it started snowing halfway, he had no choice but to run back.
From a distance, there stood a petite figure at the entrance,
And through the fluttering snowflakes, Lin Yu felt, for a moment, that the figure looked very much like Liu Ou.
He must have been missing her too much.
Lin Yu chuckled at himself, assuming it must be someone seeking shelter from the snow at the entrance.
But still, he quickened his step uncontrollably.
As he approached, the person at the entrance must have heard his footsteps and turned to look.
Lin Yu saw that familiar face, and her face broke into a radiant smile.
Her eyes were bright.
She didn’t hesitate to run towards Lin Yu.
Lin Yu felt as though each of her steps landed on his heart.
He reached out and embraced the person who rushed towards him.
The force of someone running into his arms was not slight, but Lin Yu hugged her tightly, the warmth from her body enveloping him.
The person in his arms looked up joyfully, "Hello, please sign for your delivery."
At that moment, Lin Yu didn’t dwell on when she had come, what about Grandma? How long had she waited? Was she cold?
Lin Yu had to admit that his only thought was, he missed her.
Even though he had refused her suggestion to come over the phone earlier, he had regretted it afterward.
He missed her.
And now, the person he’d been longing for was in his arms.
Lin Yu lowered his head and placed a kiss on her lips, "Signed for."
Then, in response to Liu Ou’s startled cry, he lifted her up into his arms.
Liu Ou was startled, quickly wrapping her legs around his waist as Lin Yu carried her towards the apartment.
Lin Yu murmured, "You got drenched, you’ll catch a cold in a bit..."
He held Liu Ou with one arm and managed to open the apartment door. Carrying her inside, he then belatedly asked, "Where’s your luggage?"
Liu Ou raised an eyebrow slightly, "I didn’t get a chance to tell you, don’t get excited, I didn’t come alone."
