Chapter 150: Chapter 108: Experience Teaches Instantly

“Dad, I get it!”

Shen Xiaoxiao nodded solemnly. He thought his old man would scold him, but to his surprise, his father was so open-minded. Not only did he not blame him, but he also gave him a lesson.

“Dad, can you give me 300 yuan?”

Seeing that his dad seemed to be in a good mood, Shen Xiaoxiao timidly asked.

“Huh?”

“What do you need the money for?”

Shen Qiushan glanced at his son.

“Well…”

“To buy medicine.”

“The kind to prevent you from becoming a grandpa!”

Shen Xiaoxiao replied softly.

“Did you waste your money on this?”

Shen Qiushan threw the box of Durex back to his silly son.

“I bought this later…”

Shen Xiaoxiao said with a crying face.

Shen Qiushan didn’t say anything, he took out his phone and transferred five hundred gold coins to his silly son, then seriously said: “Remember what I told you, as a man you should take responsibility, be brave enough to bear it, but it doesn’t mean you should naively make grand promises.”

“Life is long and full of uncertainties, you’ll meet all kinds of people in the future. If you can stay committed, that’s wonderful, but if one day you part ways, I hope you can be at peace with yourself.”

“Dad, Luo Yao and I won’t break up!”

“We’ve even planned to get married after graduation!”

Shen Xiaoxiao declared confidently.

Shen Qiushan smiled without saying a word, that’s the beauty of youth, daring to say anything.

Examples of going from school uniforms to wedding gowns do exist, but the probability is very low.

With Shen Qiushan’s years of experience, the chance of his silly son and Luo Yao ending up together is too low. One is a sports student, the other an art student, once they enter college, there will be numerous temptations.

Moreover, Luo Yao has a somewhat materialistic mother like Luo Meimei, who may inevitably influence Luo Yao’s spending habits and values.

Right now, still in high school, Luo Yao’s material desires are low, but entering college is another world.

But there are many words Shen Qiushan feels are useless to say now.

You can teach people, but some things can only be learned through experience.

In fact, experiencing setbacks in relationships isn’t such a bad thing.

Especially since Shen Xiaoxiao is still very young, whether in terms of relationships or other aspects, experiencing setbacks will make the road ahead steadier.

Life is all about experiences!

Since we are in this world once, we should try to see different landscapes.

Moreover, right now Shen Qiushan has the ability to back him up.

He can safely let Shen Xiaoxiao go and try!

In comparison, he even feels a bit envious of his silly son, having such a supportive father.

Recalling his own past, when he chose the wrong path, he could only bear it himself.

After all, Old Shen was just an ordinary worker, and the help he could provide was very limited.

So, kids from wealthy families have a much higher tolerance for mistakes than ordinary kids.

For the same entrepreneurial venture, an ordinary kid might end up heavily in debt and take a long, long time to recover, maybe even never.

Whereas for a kid from a wealthy family, failing is just a process of gaining experience.

“Dad, are you dating Teacher Chen?”

At this point, Shen Xiaoxiao suddenly asked.

The boy might feel like he and his dad are now “friends who share everything,” so he asked what he had always been wondering about.

Shen Qiushan was surprised when he looked at his silly son, thinking he kept it well-hidden.

Turned out, he couldn’t fool his son’s eyes.

“Your old man is at this age, what dating?”

“I’m just good friends with Teacher Chen!”

Shen Qiushan replied calmly.

“Good friends?”

“Dad, I got it!”

Shen Xiaoxiao nodded, while silently thinking to himself: What good friends! More like card-playing friends, right!

Grown-up’s world is so complicated.

Actually, Shen Xiaoxiao has a good impression of their homeroom teacher Teacher Chen, and wouldn’t mind if she became his stepmother.

But since his old man didn’t admit to any relationship with Chen Xiangyu, he didn’t pursue the topic.

The father and son walked out of the balcony.

Shen Yanran and Xu Pipa also happened to walk out of the room.

“Dad, what are we having for dinner?”

Shen Yanran asked while touching her stomach.

“What do you want to eat?”

Shen Qiushan asked back.

“I want a lot.”

“Do you think you get to eat whatever you want?”

Shen Yanran’s eyes lit up. She wasn’t like Shen Xiaoxiao, pouring most of her energy into romance.

Currently, Shen Yanran doesn’t have any object of affection, naturally having no intention of dating, devoting most of her energy to food and exploring the internet, which she seldom engaged in before.

“How about the barbecue at the community entrance?”

Shen Qiushan suggested.

“Sure!”

Shen Yanran nodded repeatedly.

“How about you, Pipa?”

Shen Qiushan asked for Xu Pipa’s opinion.

“I’m fine with anything.”

Xu Pipa has never been picky about food and even loves eating meat, because ever since her grandmother passed away, eating meat became a luxury.

It was only in the past two months that her meat intake returned to normal levels.

“Then let’s go!”

“Let’s have barbecue!”

Shen Qiushan waved his hand and then motioned to Shen Yixiao with his lips: “Go downstairs and call your grandpa and aunt.”

“Alright, I’ll go back to my room and change first.”

Shen Yixiao responded and quickly returned to his room.

“Changing clothes just for barbecue?”

“Shen Yixiao, hurry up, I’m starving!”

Shen Yanran pouted, not knowing her brother was using changing clothes as an excuse to stash away the raincoat.

“We can leave first.”

“We’ll order the dishes when we get there.”

Shen Qiushan waved his hand, leading Shen Yanran and Xu Pipa out of the house first.

“Dad, have you really made a lot of money recently?”

“You’re spending so freely!”

After going downstairs, Shen Yanran leaned over to her dad and said.

Shen Yanran knew about the family’s financial situation; before, her dad would stretch every penny.

Recently, however, they’ve been eating hotpot and barbecue without hesitation, spending hundreds, even thousands on a single meal.

Her dad’s spending had Shen Yanran feeling a bit anxious!

“Didn’t I tell you before, I really have made money! But back then, you and Xiaoxiao were preparing for the college entrance exams, and I didn’t want external factors to affect your studies.”

“Now I can be upfront with you.”

Shen Qiushan shrugged lightly: “No more pretending, actually, your dad is a famous online writer!”

“Ah?”

“Online writer??”

Shen Yanran’s beautiful eyes widened, staring at her dad in astonishment.

She couldn’t possibly link the idea of a writer with her dad.

Xu Pipa was also very surprised, but her mind worked quickly, and she soon mentioned the name of the novel “I Really Didn’t Want to Reincarnate.”

“Uncle Shen, did you write this book?”

“Uh?”

“How did you know?”

Shen Qiushan asked curiously.

He had only told Lin Xiamo about his novel writing, and later the Lin Family found out.

But he intentionally kept it from Shen Yanran, Shen Yixiao, and Xu Pipa.

“Principal Lin has been following this novel.”

“I accidentally saw it twice.”

Xu Pipa was very shocked when she first discovered the cool beauty Principal Lin Xiamo actually read online novels.

This was completely contrary to her perception of Lin Xiamo; she was so shocked that it left a deep impression.

So, when Shen Qiushan said he was writing an online novel, the case was solved.

Since it’s Shen Qiushan’s novel, it’s natural that Lin Xiamo would follow it.

But after coming to this conclusion, the eyes under Xu Pipa’s little mushroom head dimmed a bit.

In the past two months, she could clearly feel that the aloof Principal Lin seemed to care a lot about Shen Qiushan.

It was the kind of seemingly unintentional but externally indifferent care.

Due to her growing environment, Xu Pipa was more sensitive and meticulous, while Shen Yanran and Shen Yixiao were carefree by nature.

Things they couldn’t notice were clear as day to Xu Pipa.

Although currently, Lin Xiamo and her Uncle Shen seem to have only a familial relationship on the surface.

Both are single and care for each other; taking their current familial relationship one step further could change everything.

“Ah?”

“Second Aunt already knew?”

“And didn’t tell me!!”

Shen Yanran felt a bit betrayed, thinking that her relationship with Second Aunt Lin Xiamo was much better than her dad’s.

Yet, they had secrets behind her back!

“Pipa, what’s the name of the novel again!”

Shen Yanran turned to Xu Pipa, while also opening the app store on her phone: “Dad, which app can I read it on?”

“Penguin Novels.”

“But, it’s not suitable for you.”

Shen Qiushan replied, then added: “Well, you could take a look. If you encounter a guy like the male lead, you’ll be able to identify him.”

“Pipa, you should take a look too!”

“When you get to college, if you meet a guy like the one in the novel, make sure to keep your distance!”

Shen Qiushan suddenly realized his current serialized novel could serve as a “guide to avoiding scumbags” for girls.

“Wow, this novel seems really popular!”

“Dad, how much money did you make??”

Shen Yanran quickly downloaded the Penguin Novels app and found her dad’s ongoing novel.

“A few hundred thousand, maybe!”

Shen Qiushan replied casually.

“Ah!”

“That much!!”

Shen Yanran exclaimed and then lovingly hooked her arm through her dad’s: “Dad, since you’ve made money, can we upgrade my phone?”

Shen Yanran’s phone was a hand-me-down from her aunt, and it lagged a lot.

But given the previous financial constraints, she didn’t dare ask to change phones.

Now, the situation is different; dad’s wealthy!

Changing a phone isn’t too much, right!
