Chapter 255 The Little Surprise Prepared by Xu Lin
After leaving Berkeley, Lin Jiang went to Xu Lin.

After opening the door, I saw Xu Lin wearing a sports vest and yoga pants, with beads of sweat on her forehead, as if she was exercising at home.

What Lin Jiang didn't expect was that daily tasks appeared above her head.

Before Lin Jiang could check the task, Xu Lin jumped on him and grabbed his neck.

Lin Jiang also took advantage of the situation to hold her butt and picked her up.

"Isn't it too late to notify you today?"

"It just so happened that I saw your message and sent him to my mother."

Xu Lin looked at Lin Jiang and said, "Reimburse me, 128."

"What's the reimbursement?"

"I asked him to go, but he refused. I spent 128 yuan to buy an Ultraman before he went."

Xu Lin looked at Lin Jiang and said, "Do you think you have to pay for this?"

"No problem. I have to pay for this. I'll transfer 1280 to you for ten appointments first."

"Then I have to exercise properly, otherwise I'll be exhausted to death after ten times."

As she spoke, Xu Lin got off Lin Jiang's body.

"We're having hot pot today, using the hot pot base you gave me. I just smelled it, and it smells really good."

“Please give me some comments after eating. This is the secret weapon for opening a hot pot restaurant in the future.”

"You are such a business genius. Everything you do is a hit. Hurry up and give me some of your good luck."

"I'll give it to you after dinner."

"Bad guy."

The two came to the dining table and ordered some mutton, which tasted better than they had imagined.

Xu Lin was also very satisfied with the meal, and Lin Jiang also clicked on the daily tasks.

[Task name: Happy Hour]

[Task description: I want to accompany my child to the school's summer camp, but I don't have time to go because I'm on a business trip]

[Task Reward: Fitness Card*1, 20 points]

Seeing the task description, Lin Jiang remembered Xu Lin’s first task.

The two are similar.

[Fitness Card: Exercise for one hour every day, get a reward of 200 million every day, limited to seven days (no time limit, no location limit)]

It is easy to understand that there is no time limit, you can do it at any time.

"How do you understand the concept of no restrictions on location? Does that mean we don't have to go to the gym anymore?"

[Yes, any form of fitness is included]

"According to you, running in the park or playing basketball can also be considered as fitness?"

【Yes】

"Then does playing cards on the bed count as exercise?" Lin Jiang asked weakly in his heart.

Tongzi did not respond immediately.

Apparently, this was not taken into account in its database.

【Calculate】

Tongzi, excellent.

I'll let you see it when we play cards later.

"By the way, I heard something happened at the mall, and many brands are planning to cancel their leases."

Xu Lin's words interrupted the conversation between Lin Jiang and the system.

"Huipin Group is going to open a new shopping mall in the newly opened Xingchengwan Phase II, so it has taken away all the merchants from Berkeley."

"Just recruit new investors. It's a bit unkind of them to come to you to recruit people."

"Realistic business wars are often so LOW." Lin Jiang shrugged and said:
"The two malls are so close to each other that their users overlap. Brand merchants will not open two stores. Their best option is to snatch merchants from Berkeley."

"According to what you said, they should have thought of this when they set up the project. They planned it from the beginning to squeeze Berkeley out."

"Almost. Plus, there's some personal grudge between them and me, and it just so happens that Berkeley was being renovated, so it turned into what we're seeing today?"

"What did you do? Did you give them the lease back?"

"Of course. Do you think I'm the kind of person who would shamelessly try to keep them here?"

"Of course not. The man I like would definitely not do such a thing." Xu Lin said proudly:

"But then again, the impact of this incident on you is huge. Have you made any records in this regard? In the worst case scenario, how many people will leave?"

"one third."

"So miserable?"

"Miserable? How miserable is that? I wish it were this way." Lin Jiang said as he ate:
"Free up the space for me so that I can attract other better chain brands, instead of wasting my brain cells to clear them out."

"The problem is that Berkeley's appeal isn't as strong as you think, even if you redecorate it."

"Don't worry, I have a secret weapon."

"Secret weapon?"

"Are you still selling your medicinal oil?"

Xu Lin nodded. "Now we mainly sell online to our old customers."

"I remember you said that you made the medicated oil yourself, right?"

"Well, what happened?"

"Go apply for a patent, and I'll help you run it. When the time comes, I'll put it in the Berkeley store and use it to attract traffic."

"That's no problem, I'll do it tomorrow."

"If you don't have time, I'll arrange for someone to go, and you can just focus on the Chinese medicine clinic."

"That's fine, but I'm afraid the effect won't be as good as you think, and it won't have the effect of draining the blood."

"This is just one way to divert the flow of blood, and I think the effect will definitely be good, so there's no need to think too much about it."

"Ah."

After finishing the business, the two started chatting about other things.

"Why don't you eat after a few bites?"

"I'm trying to lose weight recently, so I can't eat too much."

"Even if you're trying to lose weight, you're eating too little."

"I'm afraid I'll eat too much, and when you torture me, you'll make me vomit."

Lin Jiang looked at Xu Lin with a smile, "So you have even thought about this aspect."

"You should also eat less, to avoid feeling uncomfortable later."

Seeing Xu Lin's eyes, Lin Jiang discovered something different.

Although she had been interested in this matter before, she was not as enthusiastic as she is today.

"Have you prepared any new gadgets?"

"you guess?"

"there must be."

Lin Jiang stood up, picked up Xu Lin by the waist, walked to the bedroom, and put her on the bed.

"Now you can start your performance."

"It's not time yet, but you'll find out."

Lin Jiang was completely confused by what he said, and at this moment, Xu Lin sat up from the bed, took out a pair of stockings from the closet, and slowly put them on her legs.

In the first half, Xu Lin still persisted, but in the second half, he was like collapsed in the mud.

"bring it on."

"Hmm? Safe today?"

"I brought some precautions with me, you can do whatever you want from now on."

As she spoke, Xu Lin was still actively catering to Lin Jiang, "This is a little surprise prepared for you."

"You are kidding me, this is not good for your health."

"It's not as serious as you think. Besides, I like this feeling. It makes me enjoy myself."

As she spoke, Xu Lin turned around and looked at Lin Jiang, her face charming and rosy.

"Hurry up, I've been waiting for this moment since you messaged me."

Lin Jiang couldn't bear it any longer and followed Xu Lin's wishes.

At the moment of ending, Xu Lin lay on the bed with a look of satisfaction on her face.

……

The next morning, when Lin Jiang opened his eyes, he heard the sound of Xu Lin cooking outside.

After washing up, he came to the kitchen and hugged her from behind.

The moment he touched her body, Xu Lin let out a gasp.

"We're cooking, don't make trouble."

Xu Lin raised her neck and let Lin Jiang bury his head on her collarbone. Lin Jiang reached out and turned off the gas valve on the stove, then lifted up Xu Lin's nightgown and started his morning exercise.

...12843 words omitted here...

The fight between the two started in the kitchen and ended on the sofa.

After playing cards so many times, Lin Jiang discovered that sometimes wearing clothes is more fun and feels better than not wearing clothes.

Just like Xu Lin at this moment, she was still wearing her nightgown and cleaning herself.

Pulling out a few sheets of toilet paper, Xu Lin prepared to wipe herself briefly and then take a shower.

But at this moment, the sound of the door opening was heard.

Xu Lin was so frightened that she didn't even bother to wipe it off. She quickly lifted up her nightgown and tidied her hair to make herself look more normal.

At the same time, the door opened and Zhao Wenxuan and his grandmother Wang Xiazhi appeared at the door.

"Uncle Lin, you are here too."

Zhao Wenxuan walked over happily, holding an Ultraman in his hand.

But Wang Xiazhi stood at the door, and looking at the current state of the two people, she knew what they had done.

But as an elder, I can only pretend that I know nothing.

After all, this house was bought by someone else, and he has helped his daughter a lot at work, so it is natural for things between men and women to happen.

"Xiao Jiang is here." Wang Xiazhi greeted with a smile.

"Auntie." Lin Jiang nodded politely in response.

Wang Xiazhi nodded and greeted Zhao Wenxuan with a tactful look.

"Let grandma take you out to play first. The weather is so nice, don't stay at home." Xu Lin said, hoping they would leave quickly so she could clean up.

"Don't worry, I have something to tell Uncle Lin."

Wang Xiazhi also knew that Zhao Wenxuan liked to play with Lin Jiang, and for a moment she didn't know how to persuade him.

"Play with your Uncle Lin for a while first, but don't cause any trouble for him."

After saying this casually, Xu Lin hurried to the bathroom.

"understood."

"Have fun with your Uncle Lin."

Wang Xiazhi also went to the bathroom, ready to say something to Xu Lin.

As soon as I came in, I saw Xu Lin wiping her thighs, and there was a peculiar smell.

They were all adults, and based on Xu Lin's actions, they could tell at a glance what she was doing.

"Mom, why did you come in?"

Although she was his mother, he felt very embarrassed to be caught doing such a thing, and quickly lifted up his nightgown.

"You're already so grown up, why don't you pay any attention at all? What if something goes wrong? You still want to have another child."

Wang Xiazhi won't take care of that matter, but she will definitely talk about safety issues.

"It's okay, I brought that, nothing will happen."

"I remember you two had a fight about this before. You refused to bring that thing no matter what. Why did you change your mind now?"

"I am willing to do it, so there is no need to worry about it."

Xu Lin looked at Wang Xiazhi and said, "Mom, you're not going to interfere in this matter, are you?"

"I don't care about the affairs of you young people. You are a person with your own opinions. Just figure it out on your own. But you must have regular checkups."

"I know. I'm a medical student. How could I not know this?"

"You'll be fine if you know your limits. I don't care about the rest, but this is not a joke."

"I know, please get out, I'm going to take a shower."

"Ah."

After coming out of the bathroom, Wang Xiazhi went to the kitchen, while Lin Jiang and Zhao Wenxuan were playing in the living room.

"Uncle Lin, are you busy at work? I want to ask you a favor."

"Why do you still need to use the word 'beg'?"

Zhao Wenxuan's expression was rarely serious. Lin Jiang thought he might want to buy something, but Xu Lin refused to buy it for him.

"Is there a new model of Ultraman? Where can I buy it? I'll go buy it for you."

"It's not the new Ultraman. Our school is organizing a summer camp. I want to go, but my mom doesn't have time to go with me. Do you have time? Come with me."

The opportunity is here.

“When does summer camp start?”

"the day after tomorrow."

"You guys should be having summer vacation soon."

"It started yesterday, and then there's summer camp. All the students in my class signed up, but I'm the only one who didn't go."

Zhao Wenxuan was in a bad mood and felt that the Ultraman toy in his hand was no longer interesting.

Lin Jiang thought about the things on hand and realized that they had almost been arranged.

What remains is to discuss the group's organizational structure with Shen Qingqiu.

But there is no rush about this matter. Instead, he can accompany Zhao Wenxuan on the trip, or persuade Xu Lin to accompany Zhao Wenxuan.

“Is the registration for the event closed?”

"I don't know if it's over yet. You can ask Teacher Qiqi. She's going too."

If Jiang Xiaoqi also went, this wouldn’t be a problem.

"It's not a big problem. Leave it to me. I'll persuade your mother first, but I have a request."

There was a light in Zhao Wenxuan's eyes.

"Uncle Lin, what are your requests?"

"Your grandma and grandpa miss you very much. You should stay with them more often and spend more time with them."

"No problem, I'll go live at my grandma's house and won't come back."

"Emm...it's not that serious. It's okay to come back and stay for a while. After all, this is your home."

"Anything to get me to summer camp."

"Okay, leave it to me."

At this time, Xu Lin had finished taking a shower, put on a pure cotton nightgown, and wrapped a towel around her hair.

"Mother……"

Zhao Wenxuan hugged Xu Lin.

"what happened?"

Zhao Wenxuan didn't say anything, but looked at Lin Jiang.

Xu Lin also looked at the two of them and felt that they had not discussed anything good just now.

"The school is organizing a summer camp, why don't you let him go?"

When Xu Lin heard it was a summer camp, she understood what was going on and looked at Zhao Wenxuan with a stern face.

"Why tell your Uncle Lin about this? If I don't agree, do you think he can take you there?"

"Mother……"

"It's not a big deal, don't scare him anymore."

Xu Lin did not respond to Lin Jiang, but looked at Zhao Wenxuan.

"Zhao Wenxuan, you have no rules at all, right? Who told you to say that?"

While speaking, Xu Lin lifted her feet and took off her slippers.

"If you don't punish me for three days, you will go crazy and do anything."

In Xu Lin's opinion, this is a problem of education and should never be indulged.

"Uncle Lin."

Zhao Wenxuan ran behind Lin Jiang and said, "Uncle Lin, help me! My mom is going to hit someone."

"Calm down, you are wrong in this matter. You can't take it out on the child."

Lin Jiang could understand Xu Lin's feelings. If he had done something like this as a child, he would also have been beaten.

But times have changed, and using the old ways is a bit out of date.

"It's not that I won't go with him, it's just that I have to go on a business trip to Beijing the day after tomorrow, and I really can't find the time."

Xu Lin's anger had not yet subsided. If Lin Jiang had been a step slower, she would have hit him with her slippers.

This is the disadvantage of being a single mother. Once something happens, she cannot get away.

"I'll just go with him. You just focus on your work. I'm pretty free lately anyway," said Lin Jiang.

"You have a lot of other things to do, so I won't waste your time. Let him stay at home."

"Everything has been arranged almost, you don't have to feel any psychological burden." Lin Jiang persuaded.

Xu Lin pinched her waist and looked at Lin Jiang, "Just spoil him."

"I also poured you in."
