Those Sweet Times

Chapter 36 Part 1

Lin Chuyan didn't go to the club meeting on Thursday, instead he went
home for his mother's birthday.

Yue Yingying didn't like big parties.  Rather than throw a birthday party,
she usually had a family gathering. Though she was quiet about her birthday,
she still received many birthday gifts.

This year, the gift she appreciated the most was Xiang Daying's painting.
The most unusual gift was from her own son.

Lin Chuyan was taking a 3D design cla.s.s this semester. He designed a
birthday cake and used the 3D printer in the school lab to print it out as
his mother's birthday gift.

Yue Yingying didn't really appreciate the cake, but she didn't want to hurt
his son's feelings either. She gave a red envelope in return to her son with
500 RMB inside.

Lin Chuyan didn't appreciate that either.

“Don't think it's too little. You have to rent out your tuxedo for 5 days to
earn that much!”

It looked like his parents were aware of his tuxedo renting business.

In fact, his rental business wasn't doing that great. Since the tuxedo was
tailor made for him, not many people could fit in his tuxedo. Chubby people
couldn't put it on, even skinny people wouldn't fit properly. Especially the pants,
they were too long for most people. Some even had to roll up the bottom of the
pants, making the entire outfit look rather awkward.

“How do you get to know Mr. Xiang?” Lin Xueyuan was curious.

Lin Chuyan wouldn't tell his dad the truth since he was still unhappy that his
parents mistrusted him.

Lin Xueyuan continued: “Do you know that Mr. Xiang didn't take any money
for the painting.”

“How could you do that?”

“I certainly wouldn't accept it, but there was nothing I can do since he insisted
on it. Besides, he's an artist, I can't keep stuffing money into his pocket. I don't
want to look too vulgar.”

Lin Chuyan thought for a while: “Then give me the money, I'll give it to him.”

“Get lost!”

Lin Chuyan dropped the issue.

After a while, Lin Chuyan asked his dad: “Did Mr. Xiang ask you anything
about me?”

“No, why do you ask?”

“It's nothing.” Lin Chuyan lowered his head, pretending to check cell phone.
His eyelids covered the disappointment in his eyes.

It was Sat.u.r.day again, the day Xiang Nuan's team was playing the semi-finals.

Their opponent at the semi-finals was a team called “Black s.p.a.ce.”

The five players of the Black s.p.a.ce were all at the Master level. Xiang Nuan
had studied the team and found that the five players were cla.s.smates. Though
they were all Masters, their skill levels were uneven.

The best one was their Top, good at playing the champion Laofuzi.

Top usually stayed at the top lane by himself, facing the enemy's Marksman and
Support. It was a position with a lot of pressure and sometimes unrewarding.

Laofuzi could attack, take pressure, and run fast. He did well in team fights as
well as fight on his own. When Black s.p.a.ce played a match, usually Laofuzi
would farm and push a tower all by himself, leaving his other teammates to their
own devices. Then Laofuzi would quietly push all the enemy towers on his own…...
A formidable champion.

Xiang Nuan's team had to make sure that Laofuzi was banned.

In return, Black s.p.a.ce banned Xiang Nuan's Donghuang Taiyi and Lin Chuyan's
Li Bai.

Lin Chuyan's Li Bai wasn't very powerful, but under his control, there would be too
many surprises, making it harder to deal with.

Lin Chuyan wasn't planning on playing Li Bai in the first place. He chose to play as
a mage.

Lately Lin Chuyan had been playing Diaochan which was more useful in a higher
level game.
