Chapter 257: Chapter 260: The Girl Next Door’s Early GrowthChapter 260: Growth of the Girl Next Door Fortunately, with the help of Li Lin’s mother, she managed to escape. When she saw Lin Zifeng standing under the shade of a tree, looking relaxed with a cigarette hanging from his lips, his head tilted back. Li Lin pursed her lips into a sweet smile, and noticing that Lin Zifeng hadn’t detected her arrival, she decided not to call out to him. Instead, she placed her hands behind her back and walked towards Lin Zifeng step by step, filled with tender affection. Her evident dimples added a sunny, girl-next-door charm to her, just like Shen Jiayi, the female protagonist from the show "Those Years, We Chased the Girl Together"—if only Lin Zifeng would turn his head at that moment. He would undoubtedly be struck by the scene Li Lin presented, for in terms of both temperament and figure, she was absolutely the kind of woman who embodied the petite and fair "little jade." The perfect candidate for a wife—and when it comes to knowledge, she was a high school teacher. In terms of appearance and looks, she possessed the same purity as the main female character from "Those Years, We Chased the Girl Together." Li Lin, playful and quirky, slowly walked up behind Lin Zifeng. With her hands clasped behind her back, her pale, slender fingers intertwined, it was evident she felt a bit of excitement. Last time she returned, they had only parted hurriedly, and she still had so many things to say to Lin Zifeng before he left.

In the past, Li Lin was pretty much Lin Zifeng’s shadow, always cheerfully calling him "brother" and following him everywhere he went. The two of them spent over a decade together, just like real siblings. During those innocent times, Li Lin’s cuteness and Lin Zifeng’s mischief accompanied them through household games, going to school, leaving school, and returning home together. It was no different from having a little sister next door. Now, to think that they had both grown up so much. Time really did fly by. Especially for Lin Zifeng. After all, Li Lin was only just twenty. She was in the prime of her youth, and girls of that age naturally possessed a vivacious charm. Not to mention, she was also a teacher. "Lin big brother!" Suddenly, Li Lin approached Lin Zifeng, stopping less than half a meter away, and she excitedly slapped his shoulder, calling out. Lin Zifeng turned abruptly, met with the bright, sunshiny smile of the young girl, and he too started smiling foolishly. "Well, look at you, joking with your Lin big brother like this after years of not seeing each other. Aren’t you afraid I’ll spank you, huh?" Lin Zifeng laughed heartily, his words carrying a touch of playful authority, like an adult lecturing a child. Lin Lin scrunched her cute little nose, stuck her tongue out playfully, and said in a coquettish manner, "Lin big brother, you finally decided to come back to see me. I thought you would never return." With that, Li Lin threw herself into Lin Zifeng’s arms, just like a child who never grew up. "Eh, hehe, how could your Lin big brother never come back? Besides, I have a home here too. Where else could I go?" Lin Zifeng laughed awkwardly, wanting to push away the girl clinging to him, but she was holding on too tightly. Especially that maidenly fragrance emanating from her body, it filled Lin Zifeng’s entire mind. "Lin big brother, where have you been these days? Why did you leave as soon as you came back? I tried calling you, but I couldn’t get through. It made me so anxious, not knowing whether you were doing well or not. It’s so hot, make sure you don’t kick off the covers at night and catch a cold. It’s hard to recover from a summer cold," blurted Li Lin in a rush of concern, stirring a warm feeling inside Lin Zifeng. "Lin big brother, you’ve lost weight." While Lin Zifeng was tangled in his thoughts, Li Lin slowly let go of him and gently touched his sharply contoured face, her voice tinged with worry. Seeing the young girl’s pained expression for him, and when Lin Zifeng inadvertently caught a glimpse of her bright, expressive eyes, his own face briefly registered surprise before he quickly shook his head and laughed it off, "Your Lin big brother has been eating well, living well. How could I possibly lose weight? You must be mistaken, maybe I was just too chubby when I left five years ago, giving you a false impression." "Impossible! Even though I haven’t seen you for five years, Lin big brother, I still remember exactly what you look like. I could recognize you by your scent alone, no matter how you change." Li Lin replied earnestly, her soft, tender face all serious, almost bringing Lin Zifeng to laughter. "Alright, alright, you win. Whatever you say goes, okay?" Lin Zifeng said helplessly, followed by taking a deep drag from the cigarette at the corner of his mouth. Noticing Lin Zifeng’s furrowed brow as he smoked, the observant Li Lin immediately felt a twinge of pity. His smoking gesture gave off a defeated vibe, tinged with a touch of world-weariness. "Lin big brother, smoking is bad for your health. You should smoke less," Li Lin wanted to snatch the cigarette from Lin Zifeng’s mouth, but hesitated to annoy him and instead gently advised. "Ah, I’ve been smoking for many years now. How could I suddenly quit?" Lin Zifeng said with a sideways smile. "Then if you can’t quit, at least cut down a bit. It’s really not good for your health. And if you really have such a strong craving, I suggest you drink more milk. It’s not only good for your health, but it also helps with the smoking," Li Lin urged. "Of course, absolutely," Lin Zifeng nodded eagerly, like a chicken pecking at grains. "Right, Linlin, let’s not just talk about this. Let’s talk about something else. I don’t come back very often; you can’t treat your Lin big brother like this," Lin Zifeng pretended to put on a poker face and spoke with mock sternness.
