Chapter 227 : Going Out
Chapter 227 : Going Out
With nothing to do here, every day was either watching TV and playing on her phone or playing mahjong and getting destroyed.
Lin Nan was bored to death. Wu Jiaming, that guy who went out gallivanting every day, was even more uncomfortable staying still.
So after welcoming his cousin and staying here for a few days, Wu Jiaming ran off to his own grandfather's house again. Liu Xinyi was also a thick-skinned person. When she heard he often went to nightclubs and KTV with his friends, her eyes lit up and she shamelessly insisted on going along.
Then Lin Nan suddenly discovered that only her uncle was left to keep her company.
It was only a few days until New Year's. Grandfather and Grandmother started busily preparing New Year's goods and had even less time to pay attention to Lin Nan. Normally they could at least be found at the mahjong parlor, but now they could only be seen at mealtimes.
Lin Nan wanted to go home.
Although that home was just a rental, at least it was better than staying as a guest at Grandfather's house.
It's just that there was also a father at home who didn't welcome her... Lin Nan had figured things out these past few days. With that kind of personality and character, she didn't need his recognition and acceptance. Even if he accepted her, he probably would be like before, completely disregarding her feelings and only thinking about making money and eating, drinking, and having fun.
Lin Nan didn't miss the newly purchased house at home either. Now that she had become female, even if she got married there wouldn't be much pressure about property. Moreover, she didn't plan to get married at all. She just wanted to rent a place after graduation and live out her life.
If possible, it would be best to also save some retirement money for her mother... Since her parents had always been big truck drivers, just affiliated with a company but not actually employed, no one helped them pay into social security, and they themselves had never had that kind of awareness. So Lin Nan would have to take responsibility for her mother's retirement.
As for her father, he still had the car. Driving a truck earned at least ten thousand yuan a month. He shouldn't be without even retirement money. At worst, Lin Nan could send him a little money each month in the future, to compensate for the expenses he had spent on her over the years.
Lin Nan lay on Wu Guodong's bed, thinking about her future. According to Lina, the magic would eventually become unusable due to running out of magical power, but by then Lin Nan would just lose an advantage. She would still be a beautiful girl with a pretty appearance.
"So can you get off my bed?" Wu Guodong sat helplessly at the computer, looking at Lin Nan in women's pajamas, refusing to leave his bed.
"I'm playing games."
"Can you at least not wear women's pajamas? Do you know how tempting your figure is!"
His gaze stopped at the edge of Lin Nan's skirt. Because of Lin Nan's improper lying position, the hem had already reached near her thighs, and snow-white skin could be faintly seen.
Lin Nan's own pajamas had been thrown in the washing machine by Grandfather. Now she could only wear this set of women's pajamas her mother had bought.
It was actually just a long-sleeved dress. She had worn it once before, but because she hadn't been wearing a bra at the time and her nipples showed through, she was extremely resistant to this thin garment.
But now she was dressed properly, and Wu Guodong was the first relative to encounter her feminized self, so naturally she didn't have any extra thoughts.
New Year's was approaching. Relatives kept coming to Grandfather's house for visits. Generally Wu Guodong would go out to communicate with them, while Lin Nan obediently stayed on the second floor and above, not responsible for entertaining guests.
Except for mealtimes, she generally wouldn't appear in the first-floor hall.
The main reason was that she was afraid these relatives would ask questions. If she told the truth, she'd be afraid of being rejected; if she lied, it would be easy to be caught in it.
Wu Guodong stretched and stood up. He was a complete shut-in. As long as he had a computer, he could stay inside until the end of time. Being here wasn't much different from his usual work period, since either way he was sitting in front of a computer.
So he didn't feel bored, just felt his parents managed him a bit too much.
"I'm going on a blind date. Are you coming?"
His biggest headache every New Year was various blind date arrangements.
"Where? What about Liu Xuefei?"
"To the county town. Just having more options. Liu Xuefei and I haven't confirmed our relationship."
"Then wait for me to change clothes!" Lin Nan had long been bored to death. Hearing Wu Guodong's invitation, she bounced up from the bed and turned to run upstairs to change.
Wu Guodong didn't need to change. This blind date would probably just be to placate his parents again, so he just changed his shoes and waited for Lin Nan in the second-floor hallway.
He didn't wait long. Wearing a black business suit and dressed up like someone in her twenties, Lin Nan came running down excitedly.
It was just a pity that face was really too young. Otherwise, this outfit would be worthy of being called mature lady style.
"Are we taking your car?"
"Obviously. Why, want to go alone on the bus?"
Wu Guodong stuffed both hands in his coat pockets. This was Lin Nan's first time going out in women's clothing during the day. She felt a bit nervous and followed closely behind him, her gaze vigilant.
During this period, except for that late-night outing, Lin Nan had basically never left Grandfather's house. Under these relatives' gazes it was fine, but going to the street in broad daylight...
Honestly, she felt very guilty.
She kept feeling like people would notice something, even though whether looking in the mirror or taking selfies, she was a beautiful young girl. Still, she thought pedestrians would notice some clues.
They won't discover I used to be male, will they...
With such guilty thoughts, Lin Nan sat in the passenger seat of her uncle's car, nervously observing her surroundings.
"Speaking of which, shouldn't we stop by your boyfriend's house to pay a New Year's visit? It's only a few days until New Year's."
"I already said he's not my boyfriend!"
"Well, if someone else paid for your surgery, you should at least bring some gifts to visit for New Year's, right?"
Although Wu Guodong was quite shut-in, he still understood basic social etiquette.
Lin Nan thought about it carefully and felt this made sense. Although it was just a lie, she had to make it seem like the real thing.
"Then when we get there, you go back first..." She was really afraid Wu Guodong would compare notes with Chen Yao's parents and discover her lie.
Wu Guodong simply thought Lin Nan was just shy. He nodded and smiled. "Do you want to stay at his house for a couple days? You can just come back on New Year's Eve."
"We'll see..."
When saying this, Lin Nan was instinctively uneasy. Her hands rubbed the corners of the suit jacket as she looked down. "I didn't bring any clothes to go there anyway, so forget it?"
"I was just joking." Wu Guodong inserted the car key and teased, "But you actually considered it seriously? And you still say he's not your boyfriend?"
Teasing aside, he suddenly felt a bit jealous...
This was clearly his pretty niece he'd watched grow up. How had she suddenly been snatched away by some pig?
Lin Nan glared at him angrily. "I'm not going with you to your blind date!"
"So eager to see your little boyfriend?"
"No! Get lost!"
An unexpected situation had occurred. Lin Nan could only greet Chen Yao online, saying she would come find him to hang out at noon.
But the problem was... in this week or more, if she told Chen Yao she had already had surgery and become a girl, would that be realistic?
