《Don't Want To See You In The Next Life (Volume1)》Chapter 106
Advertisement
Early the next morning, the students of University B boarded the bus and went to the campus of University F.
Song Yan was not sure about the specific itinerary of their exchange study and he was not open to inquire about it, fearing that he would expose his deeds. He could only stay in the hotel and wait patiently.
In the evening, a group of students finally returned to the hotel in twos and threes and went directly to the cafeteria on the third floor.
Xia Lin didn't have a close relationship with other students and didn't intend to integrate into their group so he took his dinner plate and walked to one of the cubicles to sit down.
After a while, Liang Jinhui also followed with his own dinner plate.
After he was scolded by Xia Lin yesterday, he dared not stick to Xia Lin as blatantly as before. To be precise, he was a little scared in his heart but he was involuntarily attracted to Xia Lin so he still wanted to follow Xia Lin.
Before eating together, he carefully asked: "Xia. . .Senior Xia, can I sit here?"
Xia Lin looked at the seats in the cubicle, a square table and four chairs. It is indeed unreasonable if you'd say that no one else is allowed to sit and only one person occupies the entire cubicle so he gave an expressionless "Ok".
Liang Jinhui was overjoyed and sat down opposite him cheerfully.
At this time, the students at the other table were enthusiastically discussing the exchanges with University F during the day. Because they were abroad, they were speaking Chinese and probably not too many people could understand them so they didn't deliberately lower their voices.
When the noise reached their side, Liang Jinhui heard that they were talking about Gavin. A few female students did not hide their appreciation for that Gavin.
He couldn't help but curl his lips and said: "It's just a Yankee who can speak some Chinese. What's so great about that?"

Xia Lin said indifferently: "He does not only speak Chinese but is also a double master's degree student, which is indeed rarer than you."
Liang Jinhui was speechless for a moment and defended: "Senior Xia, I am fighting for you. As soon as Gavin heard that you are also a double master student, he always targets you intentionally or unintentionally. Can't you feel it?"
Xia Lin glanced at him, "Be calm and don't make enemies everywhere."
At this time, the light above their heads dimmed slightly and a blond man spoke in a not very fluent Chinese and asked, "Hello, can I sit here?"
The two looked up and found that the person who came was actually the Gavin they were talking about just now. They didn't know how much he had heard in their previous conversation.
Xia Lin nodded at him kindly. Gavin sat down unceremoniously and said, "I only know that you're staying here but I don't know which floor you are on. Finally, I asked customer service and found out that you were eating in the restaurant so I went to the third floor. Lin, it was really hard for me to find you."
When Liang Jinhui heard that he called Xia Lin "Lin", he immediately exploded: "Hey, we don't know you very well. Why are you addressing him intimately?"
Gavin spread out his hands with an innocent look: "Isn't his name Lin? You can call me Gavin, why can't I call him "Lin"? "
Liang Jinhui was choked and couldn't say a word.
Gavin ignored him and looked at Xia Lin with a smile: "Actually, I have a Chinese name, Jia Wen, which my Chinese teacher gave me. What do you think of this name?"
Xia Lin nodded: "Very good." But it's just homophonic. it doesn't actually have much technical content.
Unexpectedly, Gavin immediately said: "I also like your name very much, Xia Lin. Xia Lin, I feel like my Jia Wen is a perfect match."

Xia Lin almost splurted out his drink.
Liang Jinhui said sharply: "Gavin, please pay attention to your wording. China is a very reserved country. You will be misunderstood when you say this."
"How can I misunderstand?" Gavin said, "I mean it literally."
After he said that, he turned to look at Xia Lin, "Lin, I actually admire you and like you very much. When I was in school today, I have made up my mind to pursue you. Can you think about it?"
At this time, Xia Lin had calmed down and said politely: "Sorry, Gavin. It's okay to be a friend but not a lover."
Liang Jinhui immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Gavin asked: "You rejected me because you don't like men or you don't like me?"
Xia Lin was so scrupulous that Liang Jinhui, who was next to him, already knew his sexuality. He couldn't tell with his conscience that he didn't like men.
He hesitated for a moment before he said: "It has nothing to do with gender issues."
Unexpectedly, Gavin laughed.
"So, I still have a chance. Now, I'm really interested in you. It doesn't matter if you don't accept me now. It will be a long day, I can wait slowly."
Xia Lin shook his head, really regretting the experience of coming to the United States. I didn't see the person I wanted to meet and the rotten peach blossoms caused a lot of trouble.
Gavin is also interesting. He knows that he is not welcomed but he still says something with a very good temper. Every time Liang Jinhui was blocked with nothing to say, he gets so angry that he was almost smoking.
Xia Lin didn't have any interest in dealing with the two of them but it's impolite to leave the table halfway through the meal so he took a magazine and flipped through it casually.
After turning a few pages, the movements of his hands gradually stopped.
This issue of the magazine introduced a scientific research team composed of Chinese people in City J. This team defeated all competitors in the global scientific research competition six months ago and took over the huge sums of several large companies. Investment and development prospects are unlimited.
The leader of this team is Song Yan.
Gavin exchanged a few sentences with Liang Jinhui and then realized that Xia Lin was reading this article so he inserted a sentence: "Oh, Song Yan, I know this person."
Xia Lin suddenly raised his head and looked at him: "You know him?"
Gavin finally found a topic that would interest Xia Lin and said, "I watched the game six months ago, and voted for Song Yan's team. How should I put it, the innovative thinking of their team is very peculiar and the few simulation experiments that they have done are simply eye-opening. If those experimental products can be put into production smoothly, it will make the world's technological level advance forward. I have a buddy who admires him so much that he applied to join his team after graduation but he doesn't know if he is willing to accept non-Chinese employees. "
Xia Lin used to focus only on his own schoolwork and did not have the habit of watching variety shows, let alone foreign variety shows.
He originally thought that Song Yan went to the United States mainly to treat illnesses. He did not expect that in just a few years, he would become a legend in the field of American scientific research.
Such Song Yan made him feel very strange but also very curious.
Gavin saw that Xia Lin listened very attentively so he approached Xia Lin and said in a low voice: "If you are interested in his deeds, I can introduce my buddy for you. He is Song Yan's loyal fan. He has a collection of media reports and news about Song Yan. Do you want to see him?"
