System: Master Your Life-Chapter 749 - 188: Recognition from the Mother-in-Law

Because Xu Lin had already sent a message to Chi Linyue when he was at the entrance of the community.

So at this moment, Chi Linyue was waiting for him at the door.

What surprised Chi Linyue was that her mom and Xu Lin came up together.

"Mom, how did you come back so fast?"

"Mom just went to buy some groceries, how long could that take?"

Chen Yuhua replied with a hint of annoyance. Being experienced, Chen Yuhua understood that she might have interrupted something important for her daughter.

Chi Linyue hadn't seen Xu Lin for more than a month and missed him terribly.

As they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder—passion reignited, ready to spark at any moment.

When Xu Lin entered the house, he had just put down the two bags of groceries.

Chen Yuhua saw her daughter actively helping Xu Lin take off his suit jacket, then hanging it on the rotating coat rack.

Only people in a very close relationship would act like this, right?

It was obviously a wife's behavior towards her husband.

Chen Yuhua kept her composure.

"Yueyue, Lin, mom is going to be busy in the kitchen first."

Seeing things had reached this point, Chen Yuhua knew she needed to change how she addressed Xu Lin.

"Oh, okay."

Seeing Chen Yuhua enter the kitchen, Chi Linyue then pulled Xu Lin into her room.

"You heartless guy, I haven't seen you for over a month!"

Chi Linyue complained with a hint of grievance.

"But I'm back now."

"Hmph!"

"Change your clothes. It's better to wear something comfortable at home. I bought you some clothes, and I've already washed them."

Chi Linyue took out the new clothes she bought for Xu Lin.

Since it was for wearing at home, comfort was key.

So the clothes she took out were short sleeves and shorts.

Chi Linyue took the initiative to help Xu Lin change clothes, acting very considerate like a big sister.

After he changed,

Chi Linyue proactively hugged Xu Lin and kissed him.

Xu Lin, now 1.9 meters tall, stood 14 centimeters taller than the 1.76-meter Chi Linyue, so when they kissed, she had to stand on tiptoe.

Feeling unsatisfied, she simply hung onto Xu Lin, her legs wrapped around his waist, her arms around him, kissing him deeply.

Until the kiss ended.

The big sister said again, "Tonight, let's not sleep. You have to make it up to me properly!"

"Auntie is here. How should I make it up?"

"My house is so big, what are you afraid of?"

Chi Linyue rolled her eyes at him.

"Alright then." Xu Lin didn't mind. Besides, what he didn't finish doing at Pei Danqing's place today, he could only hand over to the big sister tonight.

They spent a while cozying up in the room.

Then they returned to the living room.

The living room and dining kitchen were connected.

Later, Chi Linyue went to help Chen Yuhua with the preparations.

She knew Xu Lin's appetite, so she had specifically asked Chen Yuhua to buy more groceries. If Chen Yuhua worked alone, she wouldn't be able to manage it all.

The mother and daughter busied themselves, and after more than half an hour, dinner was ready.

Chen Yuhua cooked, while Chi Linyue helped with the chores.

"Lin, how's Auntie's cooking?"

"Auntie's cooking is excellent!"

Xu Lin couldn't help but praise it. He wasn't exaggerating; Chen Yuhua's stir-frying was truly exceptional. If he didn't have to maintain decorum in front of his mother-in-law, he would have devoured the food.

"If you like it, eat more!"

Chen Yuhua squinted her eyes with a smile. Xu Lin was very good-looking, and with his achievements, a mother-in-law would naturally find her son-in-law more and more pleasing to the eye.

Everyone ate and chatted together.

The older generation says you shouldn't talk while eating, but that's nonsense. With so many random rules, when you need to chat, you chat.

Chen Yuhua couldn't help but ask some off-topic questions, "Lin, I saw online that many big companies domestically and abroad want to hire you. Do you have any thoughts?"

In Chen Yuhua's view, this was an incredible matter.

She was an intellectual, understanding that with the publication of Xu Lin's artificial intelligence paper, he had become a scientist in the field, with top universities wanting to hire him as a professor.

"I don't have any thoughts."

Xu Lin casually said, "I talked to Microsoft the day before yesterday. I solved a hacking issue for them and got ten million US dollars. They also wanted to hire me and offered 1.5 billion US dollars a year, but I didn't accept."

The mother and daughter were both shocked, both looking at Xu Lin.

1.5 billion dollars.

What kind of concept is that?

Although Chen Yuhua's husband is a senior official and not very interested in money, having seen the ups and downs of life,

1.5 billion, and Xu Lin is just a nineteen-year-old young man; this money means a lot to him.

Moreover, 1.5 billion dollars a year, never mind serving a foreign company.

As long as the money is right, people follow the money. There's nothing more to it.

"Why didn't you agree?"

Chen Yuhua wanted to hear what Xu Lin had to say.

"To me, money is important and not important. I like freedom, don't like being constrained. Simply put, no one can order me to do anything. I don't like that kind of life, so money isn't important to me. On the other hand, money is important because it allows me to do many, many things. So I did one job, got ten million US dollars. This money I will take, but I won't work for others, nor am I interested."

Xu Lin's life is just that simple, free and carefree.

Don't even think about having him serve someone else; as long as I get paid, I'll do something for you, that's it.

But it must not touch his bottom line, which is the national bottom line.

Xu Lin has strong national confidence, ethnic confidence, cultural confidence, and even racial confidence.

He is infinitely loyal to this land and the sacred history of this great nation.
