Chapter 54 Back home
Chapter 54 Back home
When she got home, Lin Xi called Mother Lin first and told her that she would go back tomorrow. After that, Lin Xi and Lin Tian went back to their room to rest.
Lin Xi took out the blue diamond and admired it again. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
"Tiantian, it turns out that women are irresistible to jewelry."
"It's just a colorful piece of broken stone. What's so good about it?"
"If you had a body, you would definitely be a straight man."
"What is a straight man?"
"Well... you'll know later."
"Hey, if you like that thing, I'll sign it for you next time."
"Tiantian, you still said you can't control the rewards!"
"Did I say that?"
"Have!"
"No, you heard wrong."
Lin Xi pursed her lips and refused to admit it.
"Tiantian, what do you think I can do with this diamond?"
"what do you like?"
"I like the ring and necklace very much."
"Then this will be made into a necklace."
"Hmm... That's fine. I'll start working on it when I get home tomorrow. Those pieces of jadeite haven't been made into jewelry yet."
"Just pay attention to rest."
"Tiantian, are you caring about me?"
"No, I'm just worried that you will be too tired. If you get sick and die, I will have to change the host."
"Hmph, with so many good things you rewarded me, how could anything happen to me?"
The system said nothing. Lin Xi put the blue diamond into the storage compartment and went to sleep.
"Good night, Tiantian."
"Host, good night."
……
Lin Xi got up at seven in the morning and signed in first.
"Ding, on the 36th day of signing in, you will be rewarded with a pink diamond."
Lin Xi looked at the diamond in front of her. It was estimated to be 20 carats. This was the first time she had seen a pink diamond. It was really too girly.
"Tiantian, you really rewarded me with a diamond!"
"Girls still look better in pink. You can use this one to make a ring."
"Tiantian, you are so good!"
"Hurry up and pack up and catch the plane."
Lin Xi felt that the system's voice was a bit shy now, and she secretly smiled. The system was so cute.
Lin Xi put the pink diamond into the storage compartment and packed other things, including some specialties and souvenirs she bought.
The plane took off at 9 o'clock. The siblings arrived at the airport at just the right time and had breakfast on the plane.
……
The plane stopped at Mocheng Airport. The two of them packed their luggage, picked up their car in the parking lot and went straight to their home. When they arrived home, Lin's mother had already prepared a meal and was waiting for them.
"Mom." Lin Xi and Lin Tian had been away from home for several days and still missed their family.
"You are finally back."
Mother Lin stood at the door and saw the two siblings coming back, with a smile on her face.
"Come and eat quickly."
"Mom, you shouldn't have been waiting for us."
"It's okay to eat later."
Mother Lin helped bring the things into the house, and the family sat at the dining table. Mother Lin cooked a lot of delicious food. The family chatted while eating, and Mother Lin's smile never dropped.
After the meal, the family sorted out the specialties they bought together, some for themselves and some for Zheng Tian's family.
After cleaning up, Lin Xi called Zheng Tian.
"Hey, Tiantian."
"Xixi, are you back?"
"Yes, let's have dinner together at Qinxiangyuan tonight. You can invite your godfather and godmother."
"Okay."
After making an appointment with Zheng Tian, Lin Xi went back to the room to pack her things. The room was very clean. Mother Lin must have cleaned it. Suddenly, the phone rang, and Lin Xi saw that it was a message from Li Xiao.
【Are you home? 】
【arrive】
[How are you on the road? 】
【pretty good】
Li Xiao didn't reply after a long time, and Lin Xi thought to herself: What does this person mean? Forget it, never mind.
Seeing that Li Xiao didn't reply, Lin Xi continued to pack her things. She didn't see another message from Li Xiao.
[I will arrive in Mocheng in two days. Do you have time to have a meal together? 】
Li Xiao frowned when he saw that Lin Xi didn't reply for a long time, and began to make random guesses in his mind, wondering whether to call Lin Xi.
It was half an hour after Lin Xi finished packing. She looked at her phone and found Li Xiao's message.
【Let’s see then】
As soon as Lin Xi's message was sent, Li Xiao responded immediately.
[I’ll call you then]
Lin Xi didn't reply, so she put her phone away and went downstairs. Mother Lin was chatting with Lin Tian.
"Xixi, you spent 350 million to buy a diamond?!"
Lin Xi glared at Lin Tian, who shrank his head and did not dare to speak.
Lin Xi turned around with a smile on her face, sat down next to Mother Lin, and took her arm.
"Mom, if you buy that diamond, it can be used as a collectible, and it won't depreciate in value."
"Then you can't just spend 350 million at once. If you have money, you should save some money. What if it disappears one day?"
When Lin Xi heard this, she knew that Mother Lin was worried that one day the system would disappear. "I know, Mom." Lin Xi blinked at Mother Lin.
Seeing her coquettish look, Mother Lin couldn't bear to talk to her anymore. She tapped her forehead with her hand and said, "You, you, you."
Seeing this, Lin Xi felt relieved knowing that this matter was over.
Lin Xi quietly sent a message to Lin Tian.
[What did you tell mom? 】
[Sister, I really didn’t mean it. I was too excited to talk to my mother and let it slip.]
[Mom is used to saving money, so she may not be able to accept it for a while]
[I promise not to tell you next time! 】
Lin Xi chatted with Mother Lin for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, she took Mother Lin and Lin Tian to Qinxiang Garden.
When they arrived, Zheng Tian's family of three had already arrived.
"Godfather and Godmother."
"Hey, Xixi, did you enjoy your trip to the capital?"
"I'm happy, I brought you a gift."
"Oh, you are such a good daughter of your godmother. When you go out to play, you still think of your godmother." Mother Zheng said with a smile on her face.
"It's nothing valuable, but I just got some delicious food. I thought you and your godfather would try it too."
"Xue Rong, how did you raise such a well-behaved daughter? I really can't wait to take her home."
Mother Lin smiled and said, "Isn't she also your daughter now?"
When two mothers get together, they really have endless topics to talk about.
Zheng Tian sat next to Lin Xi and started chatting with Lin Xi: "Xixi, next time you go to play, please take me with you."
"Okay."
"You don't know, I couldn't find anyone to go shopping with during the past few days when you were away."
"I'll take you with me next time."
……
The dishes were soon served, and the two families chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was very good. Father Zheng spoke relatively few words, but during the meal, he accidentally mentioned one thing.
"I heard that at an auction in the capital, someone spent 350 million to buy a blue diamond."
When the three members of the Lin family heard this, their expressions were as usual, and they did not reveal anything strange.
Lin Xi echoed: "There are so many rich people now."
Zheng Tian: "Xixi, what do you think those 350 million diamonds look like? My family makes jewelry, and I have never seen anything so expensive."
"I don't know, it should look good."
"I think so too."
After dinner, the two families went back to their homes. Zheng Tian also wanted to ask Lin Xi to play together tomorrow, but Lin Xi didn't agree. She planned to start retreat at home tomorrow to carve the jadeite into finished products. For this reason, she also asked Father Zheng for it. I bought a set of carving tools and promised to deliver them to her door tomorrow.
