Study System: I'm a 38-Year-Old Student-Chapter 66 - 60: Principal Lin and Red Rose

Lin Xiamo stared at the man in front of her for quite a while.

Taking university entrance exams at 38 is an outrageous idea, but after listening to Shen Qiushan’s explanation, Lin Xiamo felt it strangely appropriate.

She was even somewhat moved.

Whether or not Shen Qiushan’s idea could be realized is beside the point for now.

At the very least, he had this intention.

And he was also working hard in that direction, otherwise, how could he have memorized so many English words?

This absolutely wasn’t achieved overnight, but was a premeditated effort toward that goal.

It’s just that no one knew before.

"I can understand your feelings."

"The idea isn’t bad."

"But have you thought about what to do if you, Yanran, and Xiaoxiao all get into university?"

"What about the tuition and living expenses for the three of you?"

Lin Xiamo asked a rather practical question.

It’s hard enough for an ordinary family to support one college student, let alone three.

Moreover, if Shen Qiushan really goes to college, the family’s source of income would be completely cut off.

"How about you support us until we finish college?"

Shen Qiushan asked with a smile.

"Me?"

Lin Xiamo didn’t expect Shen Qiushan to have the nerve to make such a request.

As expected, unreliable is as unreliable does!

She originally thought Shen Qiushan had his own plan; otherwise, how could he dare to make such a decision?

Turns out, she was also part of his plan?

"Just kidding."

"I have my own way to manage the tuition and living expenses." Shen Qiushan shrugged lightly, not teasing his sister-in-law further.

Lin Xiamo rolled her eyes at him in response, but said, "If you can actually get into Sanjiang University, I’ll cover all the tuition and living expenses for you, Xiaoxiao, and Yanran!"

Saying that, she clicked her high heels as she walked towards the gymnasium’s entrance.

Watching his sister-in-law’s graceful back, Shen Qiushan couldn’t help but shout, "You’re not planning to embezzle and support us, are you??"

Lin Xiamo didn’t respond and walked straight out of the gymnasium.

It was already six-thirty. Normally, someone like Lin Xiamo, who is a school staff member, would have finished work at five o’clock, so today was already considered overtime.

At the school entrance parking lot, she found her white Audi A4L, got in the car, and drove straight out of the city center.

About 40 minutes later, her car stopped outside a venue called "The Fuel Depot".

She took a 24-inch suitcase out from the trunk and entered the backstage through the performers’ passage with ease.

Passing through the winding corridors, she pushed open the door of room 106.

"Momo, you’re finally here."

"We are the opening act today!"

At this time, there were already three women in the dressing room.

Two were sitting in front of dressing mirrors applying makeup.

A woman with her hair dyed blue and wearing a low-cut bodycon dress was playing on her phone. Seeing Lin Xiamo enter the dressing room, she immediately came up to her.

"There was a school matter that delayed me!"

Lin Xiamo went straight to the dressing table and sat down.

"Momo, you’re a principal now."

"If the students knew you were also the lead singer of a band, they’d go crazy!"

The woman sitting next to Lin Xiamo, applying makeup, had close-cropped hair, dyed yellow, a typical "Xiao Huamao."

She had a unisex style, wearing a sharp-cut black suit jacket with a simple white T-shirt under it, the neckline slightly open, giving an easy-going and unruly vibe.

She was wearing black straight-leg pants that had a dramatic drape.

On her feet were a pair of black ankle boots with a slight sheen on the surface, and a row of studs around the ankle.

The overall impression was very cool and very "A"!

"They won’t find out!"

Lin Xiamo replied as she opened her makeup box.

"Momo, don’t speak so definitively."

"What if one day we get famous?"

The other woman putting on makeup laughed softly as she said.

She was slightly chubby, with big, wavy, chestnut-brown hair.

She wore a very thin and transparent white shirt, with a black bra that was faintly visible inside, giving a vague sense of allure.

"Then we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it!"

Lin Xiamo opened her suitcase, picked out a pink wig, and applied bright red lipstick to match.

In an instant, the aloof Principal Lin transformed into the sexy and enchanting "Red Rose"!

The name of their four-member band was: the Red Rose Band!

Lin Xiamo was the lead singer and rhythm guitarist.

The cool Xiao Huamao was the lead guitarist, named Fang Di.

The slightly chubby woman with wavy hair was the drummer, named Zhu Xinyue.

The big-busted woman with blue hair was the bassist, named Hu Tingting.

The four of them met in college.

The band was initially formed during their university years; after graduation, they went their separate ways, and the band disbanded.

Two years ago, when their lives had relatively stabilized, the four reformed the band.

However, they all worked part-time; each had a separate day job.

But all-female bands were quite scarce, and more so since Lin Xiamo, the lead singer, had outstanding appearance and figure, so the band performed quite a bit.

The income was also considerable.

This was why Lin Xiamo dared to promise Shen Qiushan that she could support him, Shen Yixiao, and Shen Yanran through college.

Even though her family could afford it, Lin Xiamo had been financially independent from a young age and never asked her parents for money.

"It might be better not to get famous."

"Otherwise, the band might have to break up."

"Momo’s dad would never let her do this!"

Hu Tingting continued on the topic of fame.

"Director Lin is really double-faced."

"Momo’s mom was a singer in a performing arts troupe, so why can’t Momo sing too?"

Zhu Xinyue chimed in.

"Aunt Chen was a singer in the Railway Performing Arts Troupe when she was young."

"It’s not the same thing as us!"

Fang Di said while putting on an earring.

The three chatted back and forth.

Meanwhile, Lin Xiamo continued applying makeup, not participating in their conversation.

As for her singing, her dad, Lin Moxuan, was strongly against it.

Strangely enough, this was all thanks to Shen Qiushan!

Because he eloped with her sister Lin Chuxue, Lin Moxuan’s control over her became stricter.

In Lin Moxuan’s view, the entertainment industry was too chaotic, with many more "Huang Mao" like Shen Qiushan, so he firmly refused to let his daughter enter that circle!

Thus, Lin Xiamo could only sing in secret, squeezing in practices and performances after work.

And she thoroughly enjoyed living such a double life.

During the day, she was the aloof Section Chief Lin or Principal Lin.

At night, she was the alluring and sexy lead singer of a band, Red Rose!

This colorful life was more in line with her expectations of what life should be.

At the school.

Shen Qiushan opened the Penguin Writer Assistant App.

Actually, at the gymnasium, he wanted to tell Lin Xiamo about him writing a novel.

This could "legitimize" the money in his bank account, allowing him to spend freely in the future.

Then Lin Xiamo wouldn’t have to worry about the tuition and living expenses for college anymore.

However, Lin Xiamo didn’t give him the chance to say anything.

She even made a bold promise that as long as he got into Sanjiang University, she would cover all the tuition and living expenses.

But, you’re a principal, how on earth can you get the money to support three college students without corruption or bribery?
