67. Why is it so difficult to spend some money on her?
I had no choice before, but now I want to be a girl?
Whenever Lin Yibai encounters social problems and gets beaten up by what society calls old things, especially now when I can actually choose my favorite job like selecting a bride.
He would feel.
Being a girl is really great!
Being a boy might have a thousand perks and ten thousand wonders.
But under the current version, it just doesn’t work, and when I get beaten up, I realize what a bottom-tier job is; even dogs don’t want to play.
Lin Yibai leaned back in the computer chair and stretched his arms wide: “Hmm, ah~ ah~~”
“Ah~”
“Feels good~”
He looked at the time.
It was already six or seven o’clock in the evening.
Lin Yibai slapped his forehead and said, “Oh no, how did I forget about the appointment with that stinky rival in love? I hope he won’t mind!”
But actually, when they made the appointment yesterday.
They hadn’t specified the time or place.
So if he contacts now, it shouldn’t be considered a no-show, right?
After thinking for a moment.
Lin Yibai decided to send a message to the stinky rival in love, asking, “Hey, sorry! I just forgot about our appointment while browsing online.”
After a little while.
‘Ding dong~’
“Ah?” Xia Changyu sent a surprised emoji over and then continued typing: “It’s fine, I just set up a small department for domestic product lines recently, and I only just became available.”
Lin Yibai said, “So you’re busy?”
Xia Changyu, on the other end of the line, felt conflicted upon seeing the message. Despite having had a failed relationship, he sensed an ominous message from Lin Yibai’s text.
This sentence seemed like a double trap.
If he replied ‘busy,’ there was a high chance that the girl he had been thinking about would use ‘you’re busy’ as an excuse to cancel the appointment.
So the correct answer should be: “Not busy… I really have no plans right now, and everyone has already gotten off work. You wouldn’t want me to keep them here for overtime, right?”
What kind of Japanese boss is this?
In that case, let’s find a place to meet!
Xia Changyu had already thought about where to take that girl, to a high-end restaurant, an amusement park, a park, a shopping plaza, or a food city?
He was prepared to spend money on Lin Yibai.
But before he could even speak, Lin Yibai was already typing away, asking, “Alright! Have you eaten yet?”
Xia Changyu: “No.”
Lin Yibai: “Oh!”
Xia Changyu laughed a little and typed, “Then where should we go to eat later?”
Lin Yibai immediately refused, typing: “No need to go to a restaurant. When we head to the Management Department teaching building, I can just stop by the Third Canteen and pack you a portion?”
“What, pack for me?”
“Packing for you, is there a problem?”
“I mean, are you treating me?”
“Just a meal from the canteen.” Lin Yibai thought for a moment; he wanted to ask about makeup, so he considered this meal as tuition.
Then Xia Changyu felt conflicted and emo!
Why was it always her spending money?
Why not give me a chance to spend money on her? A meal at the canteen might only cost a dozen yuan; it’s nothing too significant.
But still?
Xia Changyu didn’t want to say much, typing plainly: “I still haven’t properly thanked you for what happened in Binhai last time, so let me take care of tonight’s dinner! No matter what, please let me treat you! Order what you want, even if it’s a five-star hotel chef or a Michelin restaurant, I’ll definitely get it for you.”
Lin Yibai: “?”
What the heck!
Why does it feel like not letting the other person treat me makes it seem like I did something wrong?
But actually, it doesn’t matter!
Asking him to pack a meal only costs a few yuan.
After thinking it over, Lin Yibai directly typed and ordered: “When you pass by the west gate of the school on your way to the Management Department, just pack me a portion of cold noodles. If you want yours with chili sauce, remember to make sure it’s just slightly spicy; the owner is a Jiangxi old man, and the dishes there already have a bit of spice from the wok.”
What, what!!
You only want cold noodles?
After seeing the message, Xia Changyu couldn’t help but stare blankly for a while.
Because a serving of cold noodles only costs eight yuan.
How does this girl not have any sense? Would it be so hard to take a bit more from me, like a thousand or eight hundred yuan?
When I used to take Gu Xiaoxue shopping, the minimum cost for a cup of milk tea was twenty-something yuan, and we usually found a nice place to order something good to eat, and then I’d give her a gift.
“Sigh~”
Xia Changyu sighed.
Why is it so hard to spend money on her?
But now, this girl isn’t even my girlfriend, and I have to treat Lin Yibai like she’s my girlfriend — it’s not that I can’t bear to spend that money.
It’s just that it feels unjustifiable and inappropriate.
Lin Yibai probably wouldn’t be willing either, right?
When passing by the west gate of the business university, he indeed spotted the cold noodle stall Lin Yibai mentioned.
Xia Changyu said, “Boss, two servings of cold noodles, one without spice, and one with a bit of spice.”
The boss asked, “Is a little spice okay?”
Xia Changyu: “Mm.”
Clearly, he didn’t take Lin Yibai’s words seriously.
At that moment, a male student also came to order cold noodles, asking for spicy but adding other conditions: “Give me slightly spicy… uh no, not slightly, I mean just a touch spicy.”
Xia Changyu: ?
Spicy, or slightly spicy?
You might as well not eat at all. Who knows if that guy’s order can even be remotely spicy?
He didn’t really get it.
But as he was leaving, he seemed to see some classmates who also ordered slightly spicy, sweating profusely while eating?
Lin Yibai couldn’t help but smile slightly: “If you can’t handle spice, then don’t force yourself. Isn’t slightly spicy okay?”
He considered himself to not be someone who can handle a lot of spice, but he could eat half a sky chili.
He thought eating a bit of chili shouldn’t lead to a sweating mess, right?
When he arrived at the teaching building of the Management Department, he indeed saw a beautiful figure at the entrance.
Lin Yibai was wearing a short skirt and a T-shirt.
When he took a closer look, it was actually a pair of trousers made to look like a skirt? Even if very clumsy, it seemed it wouldn’t flash.
Eh, why am I having such dirty thoughts?
“Hey, you’re here?”
Lin Yibai walked over, looking quite pleasant.
“Mm, I’m here.”
“The main reason I called you here today is that I need some advice.”
“You say, as long as I can do it.”
“It’s just that our Management Department will soon have an etiquette course for third-year students, and I wanted to ask you for advice on makeup…” Oh wow, almost slipped. It sounded like I already knew the stinky rival in love could do makeup.
Taking a deep breath.
Lin Yibai quickly adjusted her tone and said, “I mean, could you help me see my makeup skills? Because I’ve never done makeup before, I know nothing about it. If possible, could you give me some advice? Would you be willing?”
Xia Changyu felt a 10,000 percent reason! And guess what I发现什么华点？
She is pure bare-faced?
