Chapter 40
Chapter 40
The shopping center is a landmark building near Yu Zhou’s house. Several people go directly from the basement to the fourth floor. The teppanyaki restaurant has a higher average per capita, and there are not many people eating, so there will be no waiting for a table.
The four of them asked for a small private room and a self-service set meal for each person. Peng Houzhi messed up the menu, then closed it and handed it to the waiter. He put his face in his hands and said to Su Chang: “Is it enough for you? Eat the buffet, no It will point you to bankruptcy.”
Su Chang smiled, but didn’t speak.
“You are so contemptuous, are you sure that you will not go bankrupt?” Peng Yuzhi glared at her.
“Do you know how many people on the Internet want you to die of poverty?”
“I don’t know.” Su Chang said.
“Oh, it’s not every day that someone shouts on your Weibo, please show me Chang Baoqiong, and give me a chance to take care of you.” Peng Yanzhi was very angry.
Yu Zhou laughed out loud.
Su Chang glanced at her, and hooked the corner of his mouth.
Hey, the stinky couple, Peng Yuzhi has goosebumps, why didn’t she find out that she loves flirting so much before.
“It’s annoying,” she cursed in a low voice, ready to find an ally, “Wanwan, let’s chat for a while.”
“Speaking.”
“Where did your tone come from?” Peng Houzhi couldn’t help laughing as he spoke.
“Born.”
“Pfft ha ha ha ha ha, don’t make me laugh anymore.”
Xiang Wan frowned, and Yu Zhou hurriedly said, “She learned from TV, watching too many Gongdou dramas.”
But Su Chang was thoughtful. She looked at Xiang Wan’s behavior, then glanced at Yu Zhou who was in a hurry to smooth things over, and then thought about Xiang Wan’s “ignorant” behavior, and suddenly remembered that Yu Zhou said to her with red eyes. , Xiang Wan looks like he came from time travel.
She had an uncertain idea, maybe something happened to Xiang Wan, her brain was hit or something, she lost her memory and distorted her subconscious identity based on the content of the previous TV series, after she met Yu Zhou, she told her , I came here through time travel.
If it was someone else, I probably wouldn’t believe it, but it was Yu Zhou.
She loves to bluff, but she has always been soft-hearted, a middle school girl with a strong sense of protection and justice.
Therefore, regardless of whether Xiang Wan came from time travel, Yu Zhou believed it, and took her in, took care of her, and even helped her conceal her identity.
This may explain why Xiang Wanyan talks about being weird, why she appears suddenly when she seems to have nothing, and lives completely on the boat.
Thinking of this, my heart ached a little. When Yu Zhou told her that Xiang Wan had traveled here, was he asking her for help?
At least, I hope she believes her.
If it wasn’t for Xiang Wan’s support, she probably wouldn’t be so desperate at the moment.
Su Chang sighed secretly, and asked Xiang Wan: “I heard that you are going to participate in the dubbing summer class?”
“yes.”
“What about the culture class, how do you plan to make up for it?”
Yu Zhou pricked up his ears vigilantly, something was wrong, why did Su Chang care so much about Xiang Wan all of a sudden?
It should be said, who did Su Chang worry about before?
Peng Yuzhi also couldn’t figure it out, and looked at them sideways with his head raised.
“I…” Not knowing, Xiang Wan turned to look at Yu Zhou.
Yu Zhou said: “I’m also worried. She doesn’t have any diplomas. Didn’t we follow the compulsory education all the time? She pulls onions from dry land, and I don’t know what to teach her.”
Recognition and so on, I guess she has to learn from elementary school, but she is obviously not from elementary school culture.
Su Chang said: “I have some professor friends, I will ask you later. If not, arrange a tutor for her.”
“I…” How can I have money, Yu Zhou thought to himself.
“You don’t have to worry about the money, I’ll pay first.” Seeing that Yu Zhou was about to refuse, Su Chang said, “After Xiang Wan’s training is over, help me record a few plays.”
Xiang Wancai made his debut, and he can earn some money by recording dramas, which is clearly for charity.
Even Peng Houzhi chuckled, which was meaningful. Xiang Wan didn’t quite understand, so he just looked at Yu Zhou, Yu Zhou bit his lip and said, “This is not good, I, let me think about it.”
“What are you thinking?”
“ah?”
In the past, Su Chang never insisted on interfering in other people’s affairs, so Yu Zhou never expected that she would ask back.
Seeing Su Chang leaning back in the chair reservedly, she tilted her head slightly, and asked her softly, “What’s your relationship with her?”
The subtext is—why can I refuse for her?
Her voice was gentle and her expression was slightly smiling, but Yu Zhou knew that she was angry.
Su Chang was seldom angry, and now even Peng Houzhi became nervous. He took a deep breath, got up from the table, and laughed twice to smooth things over.
“Su Chang.” She pushed Su Chang’s knee with Erlang’s legs up under the table and called her in a low voice.
Su Chang turned her head to the side, exhaled slowly, for some reason, it seemed that she was a little sad.
Then she pursed her lips and said, “I just think that you and Xiang Wan met by chance, and so did I. Whether she needs to accept help from her friends should be her own choice.”
Explained very patiently, the ending sounds like a sigh.
Yu Zhou understood, in fact, what Su Chang said made sense, she could help Xiang Wan, why couldn’t others, why did she treat herself as a guardian, and treat Xiang Wan as her kitten and puppy, insisting on She’s embarrassed to follow her. If there is a chance, she doesn’t seem to have the position to help Xiang Wan refuse.
So she turned her face: “Wanwan, what do you think?”
Yu Zhou listened to her words, or gave in again, but Su Chang was not happy at all. On the contrary, she lowered her eyes, feeling quite uncomfortable.
Xiang Wan said, “To tell the truth.”
The three waited for her to answer.
“I don’t quite understand.”
…
“Uh, why don’t you understand?” Yu Zhou asked.
“From the beginning.”
“I don’t understand why I want to learn, but I want to be a beast?” Xiang Wan was very confused.
…
The three of them laughed out loud, and Peng Houzhi shook his head: “Wan Wan…”
The atmosphere relaxed, as if the ice had been broken, Yu Zhou glanced at Su Chang, and saw that Su Chang was also looking at her.
The two looked at each other, then looked down at the tea.
It was Peng Yuzhi who said again: “I just talked about the guardian, who is your guardian?”
“guardian?”
“It’s your household registration, isn’t it on your household registration? The names of your parents, grandparents, uncles and aunts.” Peng Houzhi explained.
Yu Zhou said: “Her household registration has not been completed yet. I took her to settle in a while ago, but it has not been done yet. Now there is only a certificate of not being registered.”
“Then she doesn’t have a family or anything, where does she live?”
Yu Zhou faltered, Xiang Wan saw that she was silent for a long time, and did not open her mouth.
“What’s wrong?” Peng Houzhi became curious.
“She landed on my account.” After Yu Zhou finished speaking, he quickly said: “Because only I can issue the certificate of acceptance.”
“Exactly.” Xiang Wan said.
“Hukou!” Peng Houzhi was startled, glanced at Su Chang, and shouted at Xiang Wan, “She didn’t even register her household registration book, why did you register it!”
Su Chang stopped drinking tea, and Yu Zhou almost choked, so he quickly took another big gulp.
“This…it doesn’t seem to matter.” Yu Zhou said in a low voice.
Then I heard Peng Houzhi who was on the opposite side say, “It doesn’t matter?”
“It doesn’t matter why her ears are red?” Peng Houzhi pointed at Su Chang and laughed playfully.
Yu Zhou looked up, as if there was really a small piece of powder behind his ear. ah this…
Su Chang lowered his eyelashes and didn’t look at her, but Yu Zhou suddenly understood why Su Chang’s ears were red, because he didn’t seem to deny his answer just now. Nearly one floor.
He didn’t ask why Su Chang didn’t go up and others couldn’t go up.
Rather, what does it matter.
In the ears of those who are interested, it probably means that no matter whose name is on the household registration, Yu Zhou and Su Chang should be the closest people. Or rather, used to be.
However, she was not sure whether Su Chang was the caring person.
His mind wandered far and wide until Yu Zhou heard Su Chang tell her, “Don’t worry.”
“ah?”
“Xiang Wan attends the training class, and Houzhi and I will take better care of her.”
Yu Zhou glanced at Xiang Wan, suddenly a little moved, alas, should I say it or not, she likes this kind of mutual help drama the most, and the group spirit of the second-year girl should be used in this kind of place.
Peng Yuzhi also said: “We set up a WeChat group, and communicate in the group in time if we want anything.”
While talking and moving, several people were added to it, and it was named—Caring and Xiangwan Growth Association.
Help… Yu Zhou didn’t want to be an Internet mother, so he changed it to Gong Xi Fa Cai.
It was only after the modification that one thing came to mind: “Are you going to be a lecturer?”
Su Chang just said that she and Director Peng will take care of Xiang Wan.
“En.” Su Chang moved the plate to welcome the dishes on the table.
Wow, Xiang Wan got off to a great start. It was beefier than the steak that came up.
Yu Zhou felt that he didn’t like teppanyaki very much, because although the ingredients were rich, they all tasted the same, but Xiang Wan liked it quite a bit. Seeing her eating with a smile, Yu Zhou also thought it was a bit delicious.
After they were full, Su Chang said that he wanted to buy a set of clothes to change into, and then took off the clothes on his body and returned them to Yu Zhou.
Yu Zhou was a little speechless, and whispered to her: “You can return it without washing it?”
I really don’t know how to behave.
Su Chang was a little surprised, as if following Yu Zhou, he really didn’t have this concept.
But seeing that Yu Zhou still looked confident after eating her, she smiled: “Do you want to put the dry cleaning fee on your card?”
Damn, it’s a pity that she can’t afford the dry cleaning fee.
Forget it, Yu Zhou didn’t want to worry about it, and they went shopping with Su Chang based on the principle of eliminating food after eating.
Su Chang went straight down to the third floor, turned around and went to a niche brand in Spain. She and Yu Zhou had also been to this store before. It was not very expensive, a mid-end brand.
Glancing at the recommended models in the window, he walked to the first row on the left, basically all in black, white and gray tones, Su Chang didn’t like shopping, so he pointed to two casually, told sales the size, and then entered the fitting room.
A white shirt with a small stand-up collar with slightly transparent sleeves, and black shorts made of trousers, with a thin waist and legs exposed, which matched the little boots she was wearing.
“Does it look good?” Su Chang looked at them on the sofa from the dressing mirror.
Peng Yuzhi flipped through the magazine: “Do you need to ask this question?”
Su Chang glanced at Yu Zhou again. Yu Zhou nodded: “It’s pretty.”
“That’s it.”
She touched the appropriate size of her waist and walked to the cash register. Originally, she looked through the new season’s new models, looked up and said a few words to the salesman, and was not in a hurry to pay. One point, do you want to pick one?”
Xiang Wan has been wearing Yu Zhou’s clothes all the time, and his own clothes are afraid that they will be ruined by washing.
Yu Zhou wanted to say something again, but remembering how he was eating just now, he shut up, and only translated to Xiang Wan in a low voice: “That means buying more is more cost-effective.”
“That is to say, she wants to give you clothes.” She whispered.
“Is it suitable?” Xiang Wan was in the prime minister’s mansion, and she often accepted gifts from door-to-door visits, but in the modern society, she was a little uncertain.
“I can’t say that well,” Yu Zhou almost broke his neck, still whispering in her ear: “Why don’t you see if there is anyone you like, and if so, you, you just remember her kindness.”
Xiang Wan’s expression was very complicated, but a suit of clothes was already showing kindness. Modern people are poorer than she imagined.
She glanced at Su Chang, nodded and stood up: “It’s disrespectful.”
Seeing that Xiang Wan picked it up, Su Chang sat on the sofa next to Yu Zhou, flipping through magazines with Erlang’s legs crossed.
Yu Zhou wanted to tell her something and motioned her to follow him.
When the two walked to the fitting room, Yu Zhou grabbed her wrist and was about to enter.
But he was stopped by the salesman, and he smiled and said, “Ma’am, I’m sorry, we can’t have two people trying on clothes at the same time.”
The tone seemed to be afraid of making a “door”.
There was a little smile in Su Chang’s eyes, and Yu Zhou said awkwardly: “We are both girls, can’t we?”
“No ma’am.” Looking at Su Chang’s grandma’s gray, the smile also had a meaningful meaning.
Okay, so Yu Zhou pulled Su Chang out again, and said: “Our friends are still there, we’ll be back in a while.”
I was afraid that people would misunderstand that the two of them left wearing unpaid clothes.
Pulling Su Chang to a corner, Yu Zhou stopped and was about to speak when he saw Su Chang’s eyes fall on his wrist, and looked up at her again.
Yu Zhou let go of Su Chang’s wrist with an “oh”.
Then he started pouring beans: “I think, you seem to be a little abnormal today, as if you have always wanted to help Xiang Wan.”
“I don’t know what Xiang Wan told you at home, and what you associated with what you saw. I just want to tell you that I’m not poor.”
“I still have a little money, but you know, I’ve always been used to planning and spending money, and Xiang Wanyi messed up my plan a little bit, so I calculated carefully and told her that I had no money, and I just hoped that she would understand Give me a break, feel sorry for me.”
“But you, don’t get me wrong that I’m very poor, okay? I just have some money that I don’t need to spend, and I don’t spend it.”
“If you treat Xiang Wan as a friend and give her something, then I really have no position to say anything, but if you are… you want to help me lighten some burdens, well, I’m just telling you, I really Not poor.”
“I left the job just to take a break. I was too tired of doing that job. If I hadn’t encountered Xiang Wan, I would have looked for a job soon. According to my plan, there would be no problem with the expenses. “
There was another reason for her resignation, which she didn’t mention, because every time she got off work and walked to that intersection, she would feel a little dazed, as if in the traffic, there would be Su Chang coming to pick up her headlights.
“That’s what I want to say.” Yu Zhou said.
Su Chang listened to her quietly, looked at her tenderly, and said, “Got it.”
Since the reunion, Yu Zhou has said the most words, and she is a little comfortable listening.
The two of them breathed together a few times, then Su Chang set his eyes on Zhou’s hand again, pursed his lips, and stretched out his hand to pull it up.
With his palm up, Yu Zhou moved his ring finger, and heard Su sing: “Some things, I seem to understand a little bit.”
She blinked her slender and thick eyelashes, then stretched out her index finger, drew a circle in the palm of Yu Zhou’s palm, and then squeezed her palms together with a little force.
She looked at Yu Zhou and said, “This circle is what I promise you now, and I will do what my friends do.”
I don’t want Yu Zhou to think too much, I don’t want Yu Zhou to always feel that I owe her something, and I don’t want her to explain to her again like this, even though she still wants to hear Yu Zhou very much.
She was a little anxious, starting from the time when Yu Zhou’s family felt that she was not familiar enough.
Yu Zhou watched Su Chang let go of her hand and said, “Go back.”
“Um.”
