Chapter 1210 Graduation Season
Chapter 1210 Graduation Season
Lin Mo was even prepared to get married right after graduation, but the thought of having children was a bit scary.
He's about to graduate from university. Although he's achieved financial freedom thanks to some kind of cheat code, he's still a child, a child in the truest sense of the word.
He's not as mature as his parents' generation, who were capable of taking on the responsibility of supporting the family. He hasn't even figured out how to live his life yet.
Marriage is fine, but as for becoming a father at his age, Lin Mo can't quite imagine how he would transition into this new role.
He was thinking that even if he got married right after graduation, he would first spend two years with Liu Ruyan, go on trips, enjoy life, and then naturally have children.
In that case, firstly, he could mature a bit, enjoy what he should enjoy, and see what he should see; secondly, Liu Ruyan was not yet an elderly mother, and she could still have the energy to develop her career in the next two years, so neither would be neglected.
After leaving the Qingshui Watai, the four returned to their residential area. Since they didn't need to go to the studio, they each went home.
With simple combinations, Lin Mo's wardrobe quickly became full, and he threw away some clothes that he rarely wore, especially the matching couple outfit from today, which Liu Ruyan threw into the trash can.
"By the way, your studio seems to be pretty quiet lately?"
After the two finished cleaning up, Liu Ruyan slowly ate the homemade fruit platter and spoke.
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo quickly raised his hand: "Stop, it's not our studio, it's theirs. I have nothing to do with the studio anymore, they can't drag me into their blunders!"
"It's all the same. Didn't you get a share of the money before?" Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at him.
Lin Mo: "The past is the past, and the present is the present. They are currently surrounded by students from several nearby universities. What does that have to do with me?"
But don't worry, once the students have eaten most of the garlic shoots at school, they'll naturally let them go.
"Who told that bastard Chuanzi to act like such a heartless son? He left the garlic sprouts for students at several universities, while keeping the lychees and blueberries for himself. He deserves it!"
He deserved it. What kind of person is he? If he had asked his fans to send him lychees and blueberries instead, transporting them from the south to the north, the nearby college students would have treated him like a fruit deity. He would have been adored by the students wherever he went. But instead, he sent garlic sprouts.
Let alone students, he still has garlic sprouts in his fridge, but they've wilted a bit lately, so he's going to throw them away; he really can't eat them anymore.
Hearing this, Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Didn't you all divide up the rest of his lychees and blueberries? I didn't see you thank him at all!"
"We stole it. Have you ever seen bandits thank us after robbing someone?" Lin Mo said nonchalantly.
Anyway, they've already been labeled as bandits at Xinxin Internet Cafe, so it doesn't matter.
Liu Ruyan looked helpless. Having a young boyfriend was like coaxing a child. Indeed, men are boys until they die.
Time flew by, and Monday arrived quickly. The group hadn't met at the studio for the past two days, as they were all at home preparing for their dissertations defense.
The garlic sprouts from the nearby university students had been almost eaten, and the people outside the studio gradually dispersed. June had quietly arrived.

With two crisp sounds, senior student Shen Qingnan climbed out of her bed in the school dormitory with a comfortable expression.
"Tsk tsk tsk, junior brother, your massage and bone-setting skills are truly amazing. Don't you really plan to open a health and wellness clinic after graduation?"
With your skills and culinary expertise, you have a bright future ahead of you. You could open a high-end health and wellness club, which doesn't need to be large, but would cater exclusively to high-end clients, and make a fortune!
"I can't speak for others, but those wealthy ladies and big bosses would definitely be willing to come and spend money here. Charging them ten or eight thousand yuan a time wouldn't be a problem at all," Shen Qingnan said with a sigh after stretching for a while.
At noon, Lin Mo came to give his senior sister another lesson. He now seriously suspected that his senior sister was not there to discuss massage and bone setting techniques with him, but simply wanted to get freebies from him.
He has now reached a plateau in his learning of traditional Chinese medicine. Although he is still making steady progress, it is not as fast as before. Of course, this is mainly because he hasn't been able to unlock any new skills related to traditional Chinese medicine recently.
Nevertheless, his massage and bone-setting techniques have greatly benefited Shen Qingnan, who has recently made significant progress in this area. After all, they are fellow disciples and should learn from each other.
"No thanks. I don't even have a certificate. If you arrest me, that's fine. Besides, I have other ways to make money. There's no need to choose the most tiring way," Lin Mo said, shaking his head.
Well, massage and bone setting sounds easy, but it's actually very physically demanding, even more tiring than running a restaurant. If he charges 10,000 yuan per person per session, how many sessions can he do in a day?
That takes at least half an hour to get here. Even if he didn't eat or drink all day, he wouldn't make as much money as a restaurant these days. What's the point of him doing this? I'm not doing it!
“That’s true, you’re not short of money now, it’s a pity, sigh~” Shen Qingnan nodded with some regret.
Of course she could see Lin Mo's potential; otherwise, she wouldn't have had any designs on him at first. Even if Lin Mo were still an ordinary person, his skills alone would be enough to make a living, and earning money would be quite easy.
She then continued, "You guys have been so quiet lately. Why hasn't Li Shiya updated? I haven't seen her online much lately!" Of course, Chuanmei hasn't been completely silent online lately. Her story of working as a car model at a shopping mall in the city last Saturday was eventually dug up, and the two female cosplayers even posted their work, which made her a little famous.
As for Li Shiya working as a car model, it did increase the mall's foot traffic considerably. When the auto show organizers found out, they were both happy and speechless. In particular, the brand of the car that Li Shiya endorsed thanked her for the buzz she brought them and even sent her gifts in her live stream.
"Hey, these past few days, the younger students from several universities around here have been hating him to the bone because of the garlic sprouts incident, so he's kept quiet. And since we're also preparing for our graduation defense soon, he hasn't been operating anymore."
"He was cornered at the back gate of our school last week. If he goes out and runs around again, he deserves to be beaten to death," Lin Mo laughed.
Upon hearing this, senior student Shen Qingnan laughed and said, "That's true. Recently, students at our school have been swearing and cursing when they go to the cafeteria."
By the way, how's your graduation defense preparation going?
"More or less, it should pass," Lin Mo nodded.
In response, Shen Qingnan smiled and said, "Then congratulations in advance, junior brother, you'll be graduating soon!"
"No, no, I won't get my graduation certificate until the end of the month," Lin Mo said with a smile.
Regarding this, Shen Qingnan shook her head: "No, actually, once you pass the defense, you're considered to have graduated, especially at your school."
Although the exact graduation time is the latter half of this month, after receiving the diploma and attending the graduation ceremony, the actual graduation time is just these two days.
Not many people will be able to come back for the graduation ceremony; there definitely won't be everyone present. In other words, this time when you take graduation photos is your real graduation.
When you go to your graduation ceremony and pick up your diplomas later this month, you'll find it quiet. Most people will have just gone through the motions, picked up their diplomas, glanced at them, and left. Some won't even have time to say a final word.
Hearing this, Lin Mo was stunned. He had never graduated from university. When he graduated from high school, everyone assumed that it would be the day after the college entrance examination, so they all made preparations. As for the graduation photos, they had already taken them. Most importantly, all his high school classmates came from the same place.
But university is different. University classmates come from all over the country, and you may never see them again after graduation.
"Yeah, that's true!" Lin Mo scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.
Shen Qingnan: "So congratulating you on your graduation two days in advance is no problem. You should go back to school these two days to see your classmates, because you might not see them again!"
Lin Mo nodded, then continued, "I'll keep an eye on them. I'm leaving now, Senior Sister. You should rest. You have class this afternoon. I'll go back and check on them."
Shen Qingnan nodded. Professor Li had no classes in the afternoon and had already left, so Lin Mo, as a student, was naturally free. At noon, she had asked Lin Mo to stay a little longer.
"Go on, go on, drive slowly," Shen Qingnan said.
After seeing Lin Mo off at the dormitory gate, watching his departing figure, Shen Qingnan sighed with a touch of nostalgia and said, "Youth is truly wonderful!"
It is said that youth is unaware of sorrow. Even though separation is imminent, they remain indifferent. It's not that they don't care, but rather that young people simply don't realize that separation is coming.
Only on a certain afternoon many years later, when I recall the time I spent with my classmates in my youth, can I involuntarily smile and feel a deep sense of nostalgia.
Meanwhile, Lin Mo, who was driving back, also realized that it was true. Although he was not officially graduating until the end of this month, it seemed that the real graduation was just around the corner.
Because when their classmates come back later this month, not to mention how many will actually return, even if they all do, it will just be a formality. They'll get their graduation certificates and leave again. Most of the students will be moving out of their dorm rooms during this trip back.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a sense of tension, as if he was really growing up, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
It's June already. Even though yesterday and today are only one day apart, June is June. Every year, June is the so-called graduation season. Some people graduate, some break up, and some go their separate ways.
He unconsciously sped up a bit more than usual. After returning to his neighborhood, he quickly got out of the car, intending to go to the studio to discuss with Chuanzi and the others how to prepare for the actual graduation in a couple of days, so that he wouldn't have any regrets.
But as soon as I entered through the back door, I heard Miss Yuan's excited cheers from inside: "Come on, everyone, let's get this party started! Today is my special day, Sister Yuan's day!"
Lin Mo:
Well, she actually got to celebrate Children's Day.
