Chapter 50 Cutting off the love thread and moving forward (push up this week, ask for recommendations, ask for collections, all kinds of requests ~ thank you ~)
Lin Zitan did not rush to open the door, but stopped to unlock the phone, and Michelle's message appeared on his Nokia phone with a green screen.
"Hello Daniel, I'm taking the liberty to send you a message, yesterday's. I'm really embarrassed, I just want to ask, Zhang Jing was okay yesterday, right?"
knew that Michelle was asking about the car accident, but looking at this text message, Lin Zitan suddenly felt ashamed of Zeng You's heartbeat, he still couldn't see through people's hearts after living for two lifetimes?
Lin Zitan knew that Michelle must have had her last resort to do this, especially a reorganized family like theirs, but now Lin Zitan is not the time when he wandered around the streets of Chinatown in order to save a night's accommodation fee, and his sympathy is not cheap enough to forgive a stranger who claims to be pitiful!
After deleting this message and deleting Michelle's number, Lin Zitan closed his mobile phone, took the key from his other hand, opened the door and strode in, entering this new world and a new life.
Aunt Li was hesitating whether to help him prepare dinner, when she saw Lin Zitan walk in with a cold face, thinking that he must not have eaten when he came back at this point, so she said hello to him and hurriedly walked to the kitchen.
Lin Zitan casually took off his coat and hung it on the hanger at the entrance, and glanced lightly at the sofa where Aunt Li was sitting just now.
Looking at her back as she left in a hurry, Lin Zitan felt that this nanny was actually quite easy, the reason why this old lady was able to find such an easy job was that she had a green card!
He paced to the sofa and sat down where Aunt Li had just sit, his feet crossed on the expensive crystal coffee table in front of him, his eyes staring blankly at the changing picture on the TV, and an interesting story suddenly came to mind.
It is said that there are many wealthy people who need to find someone to take care of their mansions because they have bought a mansion, so they hire nannies to live at home, and they themselves need to fly around because of business and work, and the real time they live in the mansion is very limited.
And those nannies who work for them can live happily in their mansions, cleaning, swimming, exercising, drinking afternoon tea, and occasionally inviting their friends to have a party at home, living a wealthy life.
Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Zitan's mouth raised a wry smile, the reality is like this, if you want to make more money, you don't have time to enjoy it!
Just like Li Manrui, if she doesn't go to open a restaurant, she can live a life without worrying about food and clothing, but what he knows more is that all Chinese who immigrate overseas always have a sense of urgency, a sense of insecurity about living in a foreign country, this sense of urgency prompts them to dare not stop, this sense of insecurity urges them to hurry up and make money, make money, and make a lot of money!
Michelle saw that he hadn't replied to the message, and it was probably very embarrassing, so he didn't give him any more information later, and since then, Lin Zitan has never seen this person again, because there are not many people who have intersected with each other, so they slowly became strangers.
"Daniel, dinner is ready, hurry up and eat!" Aunt Li walked over and said to Lin Zitan, who didn't know why the air pressure was obviously very low.
"Oh, okay!" Lin Zi shook his head, as if to shake off those bad emotions, shook his body and got up and walked to the kitchen bar.
In fact, there is also a large dining room next to the kitchen, except that they rarely sit at the table as a family to eat together. In the past, it was Lin Zi who was awkward and discordant, and then Li Manrui didn't have time to open a restaurant, everyone sat at the bar and hurriedly solved the meal, and then went to their own things, no matter how big the home was, no matter how luxurious it was, it was just a place to stay!
After Lin Zitan finished eating, he greeted Aunt Li and walked into his room.
Recently, he has been paying attention to the stock market every day, and his stock is indeed rising every day as he expected, although the increase is not very large, but he is not in a hurry.
。。。。。。。
In the last year of high school, first-class universities no longer accept applications after New Year's Day, and many students are looking forward to being admitted to first-class universities, but they are worried about falling off the list, and they have begun to apply for slightly inferior universities. Lin Zitan also applied to Columbia University in advance, and even people like Zhang Jing, who didn't need much effort, began to be forced by the environment to prepare seriously.
The college entrance examination in the United States is different from that in China, there is no need for a unified exam, but the results of applying for universities are based on the usual scores + ACT or SAT scores, and the test scores of the original owner Lin Zitan before the second year of high school are not particularly ideal, and the results of the ACT are only barely readable, and the SAT is not prepared at all.
In order to make his grades look better, Lin Zitan took the SAT test shortly after entering the fall and retook the ACT in December, and this time his overall score has also improved, but if he wants to apply for those top first-class universities, there is still little chance.
On this day, the school organized activities, Zhang Jing and Lin Zitan found a corner where no one was around, Zhang Jing wanted to smoke, and was afraid of being criticized by the school, so he pulled Lin Zitan to chat.
"Daniel, have you decided which university you went to?" Zhang Jing suddenly asked as he walked.
"University? No! I want to be sure, but I don't know if people want it!" Lin Zitan knew that he probably didn't have much hope of going to those Ivy League universities with his grades, but he still tried to choose Columbia, and as for whether he could get in, he could only resign himself to fate.
His second choice is NYU, followed by some schools that are not very ranked, so he really can't just choose a New York university, anyway, his principle is not to leave New York!
"What about you?" Lin Zitan turned his head to look at Zhang Jing, he knew that this guy had a headache recently. With Zhang Jing's grades, Zhang Jing of the two schools he applied for may be even more hopeless.
"I applied for NYU, and I also chose Hamilton College, anyway, whichever one is admitted, and if not, I can go to a New York university, anyway, my mother doesn't expect me to be famous. Zhang Jing was a little depressed, who let his grades be bad!
"I also applied for NYU, if only we could get into a school!" Lin Zitan said expectantly.
"P, I have bad grades, I can only get in, but I chose a very unpopular major, I hope to win!" Zhang Jing said here, and suddenly raised the corners of his mouth.
"What are you laughing at?" Lin Zitan asked.
"What do you guess I TM choose?" Zhang Jing said mysteriously.
"What major?" Lin Zitan asked stupidly.
"Guess what, I guessed I invited you to dinner tonight. Zhang Jing laughed as he spoke, sweeping away the dull mood just now.
"What major do you choose, can you still go to heaven?" Lin Zi said jokingly.
"Uh... Did you read my registration information?" Zhang Jing said in surprise.
"I'm going, no! You won't really report astronomy or something, right?" Lin Zitan knew that there was an astronomical telescope on Zhang Jingjia's balcony, and thought he was just pretending to be 13, but he didn't expect it...
"Haha, really, astronomy, haha... Let's have fun!" Zhang Jing said and laughed again.
"You did it on purpose, right? You're not afraid that your mother will kill you?" Lin Zitan said disapprovingly, you must know that Zhang Jing's mother hopes that he can study a major such as finance and business.
"Jingle bell ~ Jingle bell ~" As he was saying, Lin Zitan's mobile phone suddenly rang.
"Hey, Aunt Li. Lin Zitan saw that it was Aunt Li's phone at home and immediately answered it.
"Daniel, hurry up, hurry up, your mother is going to give birth, the labor pain is coming for a while, you have to rush to the hospital, that Mike's phone can't get through, you hurry back!" Aunt Li's voice was very anxious, and Li Manrui's painful moaning could be faintly heard inside.
"Okay, I'll go back right away, don't worry, I'll go back right away. Lin Zitan said that he had already started to run to the school parking lot, and he didn't have time to hang up his mobile phone.
Zhang Jing also panicked when he saw Lin Zitan like this, and hurriedly followed Lin Zitan forward, but as he ran, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Lin Zitan, and shouted eagerly: "Call 911 first!"
