My retirement life in Neon

Because of the delay today, Lin Zian did not go to the riverside, but went home directly.

As soon as Lin Zian got home, he went down to the basement to check on Xiaobai. There was nothing abnormal, but he hadn't woken up yet.

It was a bit troublesome. Not waking up was a problem. Xiaobai was not like him. He had no problem not eating or drinking for several days. Now it has been two days. If he still didn't wake up tomorrow morning, Lin Zian would have to intervene manually.

As soon as he exited the basement, his mobile phone rang. It was not a call, but a message reminder from the chat software.

Lin Zian took a look and saw that it was a message from Oda Reina just sent to him, but there was no signal in the basement, so he received it now.

Click on Oda Reina's chat box.

"Can I go to my brother's place?"

Lin Zian thought about it and guessed that she wanted to come over to seize the time to study and ask him questions.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Lin Zian agreed to her.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

"Reina! Why did you come so early today?" Lin Zian opened the door and said casually.

But Oda Reina's condition was a little wrong.

"What's wrong?" Lin Zi'an looked at Oda Reina who was bowing her head.

But she didn't answer him.

Soon, bean-sized tears fell on the ground, blooming into tears, and faint sobs came from Oda Reina.

Why did she cry? This was Lin Zi'an's headache.

"Okay, come in first, tell me if you have anything to say." Lin Zi'an didn't care about it anymore, and pulled Oda Reina home and closed the door.

From the moment the door was closed, she seemed to be unable to hold back and cried loudly.

Seeing her like this, Lin Zi'an knew that she was under too much pressure and needed to vent.

Lin Zi'an dragged her hand, took her to the living room, and asked her to sit down.

"Cry, cry until you want to stop."

Lin Zi'an handed the tissue to her, and then ignored her, letting her cry alone.

Listening to her crying, Lin Zi'an couldn't help but feel lucky that there were no people around, otherwise he would have called the police to catch him.

Crying is actually a very effective way to relieve stress, but it is not good to be excessive. Although it is ridiculous, some people really die from crying.

After crying for more than ten minutes, Oda Rena slowly calmed down. After waiting for a while, until she stabilized, Lin Zian asked her.

However, Lin Zian did not encourage her or comfort her, but threw a few questions in a row.

"Are you scared?"

"Do you not believe in yourself? Or do you not believe in me?"

"Are you worthy of everything your mother has done for you?"

"Do you know how long I have been busy for this opportunity for you?"

"Do you want to admit defeat to your friend?"

"You want..."

Before Lin Zian finished speaking, Oda Rena started crying again, this time crying heartbreakingly.

But it came quickly and went quickly. She soon calmed down again, raised her little face full of tears and snot, and cried and shouted.

"I'm afraid!"

"I'm afraid of losing everything!"

"I'm afraid of waking up and going back to the past!"

"I'm afraid that my mother will grow old and I won't be able to do anything!"

"I'm afraid..."

"It's right to be afraid." Lin Zian didn't continue to question her, as he would drive her crazy if he pressed her further. Instead, he wiped the tears from her face with a tissue, gently held her in his arms, and stroked her hair.

"Fear and terror are normal human emotions. Don't take it too seriously. Look at it correctly."

"The first step is to face it and acknowledge its existence." Lin Zi'an let her go, gently put his hands on her shoulders, and looked at her, "Reina has done this."

"Think about it carefully, it's not that serious. You are not afraid of the exam, but yourself. To be more precise, you are afraid of your former self, the waste who only hides under the protection of your mother!" Lin Zi'an paused, raised his hand to tidy up Oda Reina's messy hair, until it returned to normal, he continued: "But you are not her now, you will take the initiative to contact the annoying outside world, you will study hard to seize the opportunity, you will consider your mother, you have changed, but you don't know it yourself."

"Really...really?" Oda Reina asked timidly, a little unconvinced.

"Of course it's true. I've seen your efforts." Lin Zi'an completely let go of Oda Reina and sat back in his seat. "Didn't you ask me why I was so good to you and your daughter?"

"Why?" Oda Reina's attention shifted immediately.

"Besides the fact that you look alike to my sister, it was also for that breakfast." Lin Zi'an gave an unbelievable reason.

"I thought Onii-chan was attracted to my mother." Oda Reina didn't believe it either. This reason is indeed difficult for modern people to accept.

"What are you talking about!" Lin Zi'an smiled bitterly, pondered for a while, and then continued: "You don't know my state at that time."

Lin Zi'an didn't lie this time. His state at that time was indeed very bad. His inner self was almost exhausted, and his appearance at that time was not good-looking, even not much better than a beggar.

Oda Michiko was able to lend a helping hand at that time. No matter what her purpose was, Lin Zi'an would remember her help this time, even if it was useless.

After these days of contact, Lin Zian believed that Michiko Oda's reason that day was most likely out of sympathy, and she probably didn't believe that she was a rich person at the time.

More importantly, the burden of a breakfast on the Oda family is different from that on ordinary families.

A person has two bags, and he gives you one bag and he only has one bag and gives you half of it.

Ordinary families have more than two "bags", and the Oda family may not even have half of one. She said it was extra, but that breakfast was probably Oda Michiko's own, so that breakfast meant something different to Lin Zian.

Lin Zian is an old antique, and there are not many things that can touch him, but this incident is one of them, and the ordinary is extraordinary.

A drop of water should be repaid with a spring.

So Lin Zian will find ways to help their family after he settles down.

Although he doesn't like to be a good person, he can't let kindness and beauty disappear in his eyes!

And Oda Michiko's personality is very likable to him, but Lin Zian has never had any improper thoughts about Oda mother and daughter, he has long passed that age.

But there is a limit to repaying a favor. If Oda Reina had chosen to go directly to Aoyama Academy, he would have let her in directly, and that would have been the end of it.

But it turned out to be a farce. Lin Zian also wanted to test whether Oda Reina really wanted to study, so he set a test, but he didn't expect to get himself into trouble.

But as he said, Oda Reina deserved his preparation, and he saw her efforts this month, otherwise he wouldn't have worked so hard to do all this for her.

It can only be said that God helps those who help themselves.

"Okay, go back first if you have nothing to do, otherwise your mother will come back and chop me with a knife when she doesn't see you."

"Didn't we agree not to mention it! And I sold myself to you." Oda Reina looked embarrassed, her two little hands twisted together.

"Hey hey hey! Human trafficking is a capital crime, don't try to trick me, kid." Seeing that she was much better, Lin Zian also joked with her.

"Then, Onii-chan, carry me back." Oda Reina got up from the sofa and rushed into Lin Zian's arms with a "brutal collision".

"Hey!" Lin Zian quickly suppressed the desire to fight back, skillfully unloaded the force with both hands, and gently caught her.

Scared, really scared, if he didn't control himself, the instinctive reaction of the muscles alone could cause her concussion.

"Don't do this next time, it's very dangerous." Lin Zian looked at Oda Reina in his arms and said helplessly.

"Well~" Oda Reina didn't hear his words at all, immersed in peace.

Seeing this, Lin Zian had to carry her over.

But after arriving at the place, Oda Reina still didn't let go.

"Reina, we're home, let me go."

"Onii-chan, let me hold you again~"

"No." Lin Zian now always felt that Oda Michiko was watching him somewhere.

"Just ten minutes, let me hold you again." Oda Reina hugged him tighter, as if she was afraid that Lin Zian would leave.

Who is Lin Zian? How could he be trapped by Oda Reina? He broke free with a slight shake, and then slipped away under Oda Reina's disgusted expression.

He also didn't understand why Oda Reina had such an expression.
