tea party

Letang had a headache.

He didn't care whether he could join Zhou Jieyu's club, but if Zhou Jieyu posted him on the forum, would his image in Fu Zhixu's mind become even worse?

But he had to agree to Zhou Jieyu, otherwise he would not be able to find any other way to get close to her.

Zhou Jieyu was clearly trying to make things difficult for him. He didn't even need to look at the list she sent him because he definitely couldn't buy the things on it.

"What are you thinking about?"

Letang's thoughts were pulled back by the voice of the person in front of him. He raised his eyelids listlessly: "No."

Bai Ruicai was not very happy.

We had originally agreed to have lunch and dinner together, but he broke the lunch date. When he came to dinner, he looked so absent-minded that you couldn't even tell that he was in a bad mood, which he was deliberately showing.

What a heartless person.

Bai Rui crushed the sesame dumplings in the bowl in dissatisfaction, letting the black sesame seeds spread. Only then did he lose his appetite and put the spoon aside.

It was obvious that she had something on her mind, but she was hiding it from him.

I didn't even eat the meal properly. I just took a few bites and started studying on my phone, let alone chatting with him. We haven't spoken a word since we met.

After Letang stared at the phone and sighed for who knows how many times, Bai Rui finally couldn't help it and reached out to take the phone from Letang's hand. What he saw was a screen full of colorful pictures.

"Lolita?" Bai Ruicai had only heard of this before. "Are you interested in this?"

He recalled that Letang had come back wearing a girl's dress before. He didn't know who asked him to wear it. He was handsome and the skirt suited him well.

"If you want, I'll help you."

When Letang heard him say that, his eyes lit up for a moment, then dimmed again: "I've been looking for a long time, and everything on this list is no longer available. I have to find second-hand ones. But I need it tomorrow..."

Sometimes Letang really hated his impulsive mouth. Why didn't he learn his lesson?

"Does it have to be on this list?"

Bai Rui took a few glances at it and secretly wrote down everything on the list.

After studying for most of the day, Letang no longer had any hope of joining the club. He decided to find another way to get close to Zhou Jieyu.

As a result, I didn't figure it out until the next day.

Today is Wednesday, the time for the weekly club activities. Zhou Jieyu sent him a message early in the morning, asking him to come to the club before his last class starts.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and go find Zhou Jieyu first, hoping to find some excuse to delay the day.

I received a call from Bai Ruicai halfway through the journey: "Where are you now?"

Without thinking too much, Letang told Bai Ruicai the location Zhou Jieyu had sent him. "What for?"

"I bought some desserts. Please sign for them for me first."

Letang was so angry that he hung up the phone.

Zhou Jieyu clearly wanted to embarrass him, not only did she gather all the members of the club together, she also specially selected the outdoor seating of the school cafe as the venue for today's club activities.

Looking at the place where people come and go, Letang could imagine what it would be like when Zhou Jieyu mocked him and everyone knew about it.

Zhou Jieyu wore the most expensive dress today and had golden curly hair, which made her facial features look even more delicate, like a pampered princess.

She sat at the head of the table and held up the specially prepared tea set. "It's rare to have a tea party today. Thank you all for your hard work in preparing it."

She turned her eyes, as if she had just seen Letang coming: "The newcomers are here, please take a seat."

As he arrived, dozens of pairs of eyes turned to him. They had obviously known about the agreement between Letang and Zhou Jieyu in advance, and they all wanted to see him as a joke.

Letang hadn't expected Liu Sijia to be there. She was wearing a relatively plain dress and sat at the end of the table, but when she looked at Letang, her eyes couldn't hide her anticipation for the show.

But in Letang's eyes, they were like a group of dolls playing house together, which was quite interesting.

He sat down across from Liu Sijia, who immediately said impatiently, "I heard from the president that you announced that you wanted to broaden our horizons and open our eyes today?"

Letang didn't expect her to be so exaggerated. For a moment, he forgot all the excuses he had prepared before: "I..."

Seeing him so dazed and unable to utter a word, the girls covered their mouths and laughed.

Zhou Jieyu deliberately said, "You said you could get it today. You don't want to go back on your word, do you?"

She had edited the post for Gua Letang early today, and had been thinking about it over and over again all day, polishing the wording. She had never put so much effort into writing an essay, and she was just waiting to send it with one click after the club activity was over.

Seeing that he had no way to defend himself, Letang had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "I'm sorry, I..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a voice: "Excuse me, who is Mr. Letang?"

Turning around, I saw a well-dressed courier. The academy forbids outsiders from entering unless they hold a special pass, which is impossible to buy without connections within the academy.

He was holding several large boxes and said to Letang, "This is your express delivery. Please sign for it."

Letang felt strange because he hadn't bought anything recently, let alone had it delivered directly by a courier. But after looking at the list, he saw that his name was indeed the signatory.

Each box was heavy, and the category was written with clothes.

Could it be that the original owner's parents sent it? That's impossible...

Liu Sijia was sitting closest to the table, and she noticed the logo and icon on the top box. She was stunned for a moment, and a hint of disbelief flashed in her eyes.

Zhou Jieyu thought that Letang was doing this on purpose to avoid being exposed for his bragging, so she would never let him off easily.

Seeing him put the boxes aside, Zhou Jieyu immediately said, "Could this be the Lolita on my list? Open it and show us!"

Letang was somewhat reluctant. Although he was curious about what was in the box, it was his personal belonging after all. It would not be nice to have it in front of so many girls present.

Seeing him refusing, Zhou Jieyu was even more unwilling to let him go.

Letang couldn't understand these boxes, but some girls in the Lolita circle could tell them apart at a glance.

They believed that Letang's family was poor and he was desperate, so he bought low-quality counterfeit goods in order to join the society. They took pictures as evidence and made a big fuss about it on the forum.

Zhou Jieyu personally asked the store manager for a utility knife to open Letang's box.

The other girls also stretched their necks, waiting to see Letang make a fool of himself.

After opening the first box, there was indeed a dress inside. Zhou Jieyu was extremely proud and immediately took it out to show everyone without even looking at it carefully: "Is this the Lolita dress you bought? Look..."

Her voice gradually lowered as she saw the skirt in her hand.

The girls who were originally sitting in their seats couldn't help but stand up and gathered around.

Letang didn't know who's crinoline squeezed her and she almost fell off the chair. She had to move aside, feeling uneasy.

It wasn't just who exclaimed first.

Then came the excited voices of the girls.

"Oh my god! It's an original product! The tag is still on!"

"It was discontinued a few years ago, and I had nowhere to buy it. Today I finally saw it in person, and it's even more beautiful than the photo!"

"I looked at the picture and thought it looked a bit like curtain fabric, so I didn't buy it. I didn't expect the real thing to be so high-quality... I regret it so much!"

Several people chatted with each other and opened the other boxes one after another. The dresses they saw were more stunning than the other, and their exclamations became louder and louder.

Zhou Jieyu couldn't let go of the edge of her skirt, with a dreamy smile on her face, and had long forgotten about Letang.

Liu Sijia realized that something was wrong and secretly tugged at her sleeve to remind her.

Zhou Jieyu suddenly woke up and remembered her original purpose for today.

She looked at the skirts piled up on the table, and looked suspiciously at Letang who was standing there at a loss.

"Did you buy all these?"

The Lolitas on that list were all out of stock and they couldn't buy them even if they had money.

Not only did Keletang buy it, he also bought all the Lolita items on the list! It only took him less than a day!

Letang himself didn't know what had happened, but he remembered his purpose. Instead of answering Zhou Jieyu's question, he asked her, "I've already fulfilled your request. Can I join the club now?"

The request Zhou Jieyu made was impossible to fulfill, and now she had no way to make excuses.

In addition, the other club members had already been blinded by the beautiful dresses and surrounded Letang, wanting to ask him how he could buy these dresses. Some people even bypassed Zhou Jieyu and immediately agreed to his request to join the club.

"Baby, after you join the club, can you let me borrow your skirt?"

"How much did you pay for it? I can pay double the price!"

"I can pay three times as much! If you have any other dresses, I'll buy them too!"

For a moment, Letang became the protagonist and center of this tea party.

Letang was called "baby" and "sister" again, and he felt a little shy for a moment, but he still remembered that these skirts came from unknown sources, so he didn't agree directly. He just said he would talk about it at the next club activity, and then the girls gave up.

After getting past Zhou Jieyu in a daze, Letang still felt elated when he returned to the dormitory.

After putting the skirts neatly back into the box, Letang thought for a moment, took out his phone and opened Bai Ruicai's chat box.

Did you buy those skirts?

【Hurry up and reply! 】

【Kitten rolling.gif】

He is not stupid. Just by looking at the reactions of those rich ladies, he knows how difficult it is to buy these skirts. Money alone cannot solve the problem.

After thinking about it, he realized that only Bai Rui knew that he wanted to buy these skirts, and it was Bai Rui who called him in advance to ask where he was and asked him to sign for the so-called "desserts".

But isn't Bai Ruicai the same as him, his family isn't wealthy, could it be...

As I was thinking about this, there was a knock on the dormitory door.

Letang cautiously opened the door a crack and stared at Bai Ruicai who was standing outside the door, as if he wanted to see a hole in him.

Bai Ruicai looked at the door that was only half open and Letang who was blocking the door, with an innocent look in his eyes.

"Won't you let me come in and sit down?"

Letang really didn't want to.

After all, the first time he let this person into the house, he was pushed onto the table and bitten...

But he hasn't taken a shower today. After giving the shower gel to Bai Ruicai, he changed to an ordinary floral scented one. I guess the misunderstanding like that day won't happen again.

After thinking about it, he gave way to Bai Ruicai.

Letang laid out the skirts and was very confused: "Where did you get these from?"

Bai Ruicai couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw his suspicious look, ready to accuse him. He didn't want to tell Letang about his identity, so he made up an excuse: "My family owns a clothing store, so I have some connections."

"so."

Letang nodded doubtfully. Could opening a clothing store be so convenient?

"But how much does this dress cost... I remember the original price was tens of thousands of RMB..."

He doesn't have that much money on him, and it's even more impossible for him to ask the original owner's cheap parents for it. He can't just get it for free with a shameless face, right?

Bai Ruicai naturally wouldn't tell him that he had contacted foreign brands specifically to get him several skirts that had long been out of stock on the market in such a short time. Generally, brands would keep a few samples and send them to him without saying a word after receiving his call. He only paid a little for expedited delivery.

But of course he wouldn't be so kind as to just give it to Letang for free. He was taught from childhood that there's no gain without gain.

"Just consider it as a favor you owe me," he said. "I just happen to have something I want to ask you."

When Letang heard this, he quickly asked, "What's the matter?"

"I want to live with you."
