"After I dropped out of school last year, I went straight back to the countryside!"

Wang Qian casually replied, "I'm farming at home now, and doing some small business on the side."

He naturally picked up on the disdain in Zhou Mengdie's tone.

If it were his previous life, he would definitely feel inferior because of his rural background and try his best to hide it.

But now, he answered with complete candor.

Having learned a painful lesson in his previous life, he finally understood what was real and what he could truly be proud of.

"Uh... go back to the countryside to farm?"

Sure enough, Zhou Mengdie's expression turned strange.

"Xiaodie, so you were here!"

Suddenly, a man's voice came from the side, "Is this your friend? I've never heard you mention him before?"

The voice appears with the person.

The speaker was a young man wearing a blue suit, leather shoes, and a middle-part hairstyle.

He looks very energetic!

As he looked Wang Qian up and down, he also deliberately put his arm around Zhou Mengdie's shoulder.

Zhou Mengdie seemed somewhat disgusted, and pushed the man's hand away before pointing to Wang Qian and introducing him: "Changxuan, this is my college classmate, Wang Qian!"

"A college classmate?"

The man instantly became respectful.

But then, the surprise on his face turned into disdain.

Wang Qian was indeed more handsome than him, but he was wearing a tattered and cheap cotton-padded jacket and his shoes were covered in mud.

By all accounts, he looks like a country bumpkin who came from the countryside to the county town.

This alone gave him an instant sense of superiority, making him feel like he was above everyone else.

"Hello, my name is Zhong Changxuan, and I am Xiaodie's boyfriend."

Perhaps to show his gentlemanly manners, he was about to extend a hand to Wang Qian.

But when he saw that Wang Qian's hands were covered in mud, he quickly pulled them back.

Seeing this, Zhou Mengdie quickly stepped in to smooth things over, "Wang Qian, Zhong Changxuan is a bit of a germaphobe, please don't mind."

Then, as if she had just remembered something, she quickly added, "Oh right, his family lives in the county town, and his parents run a restaurant."

"oh!"

Wang Qian simply gave a casual reply and then bypassed the two to head to the cashier.

The two of them stood there, stunned.

Zhou Mengdie looked embarrassed.

But Zhong Changxuan's face gradually turned ashen.

What's with this country bumpkin trying to act all high and mighty?

The fact that he took the initiative to greet me was already a great honor.

How dare they be so shameless?

However, seeing Wang Qian walk towards the cashier, a sly smile appeared on his lips.

This clothing store sells only high-end goods.

Any piece of clothing there is ten times more expensive than what you find at a street stall.

How dare a country bumpkin like me come here to buy things?

Could it be that he was deliberately putting on airs in front of them to impress Zhou Mengdie?

right!

That must be it!

Since Wang Qian and Zhou Mengdie were college classmates, they might have had some ambiguous relationship before.

When Zhou Mengdie introduced him just now, she deliberately revealed his family background, which was definitely to provoke Wang Qian and make him feel unbalanced.

Thinking of this, he quickly pulled Zhou Mengdie up, "Xiaodie, I said I would buy you a gift today. Whatever you like, I will buy it for you!"

"real?"

Zhou Mengdie was overjoyed. Suppressing her disgust for Zhong Changxuan, she feigned a sweet voice and said, "Changxuan, you are so good to me!"

"It's only right that I treat you well!"

Zhong Changxuan smiled smugly, "Even if you want the stars in the sky, I'll pluck them down for you!"

As they spoke, the two walked hand in hand to the counter.

At that moment, Wang Qian had already set his sights on a scarf displayed in the cabinet.

"Hello, how much is that scarf?"

The scarf was pink overall, fluffy, warm, and pretty.

If he remembers correctly, Lin Xiaoyu really liked the female lead in a period drama, and that person wore a scarf just like this.

But in his previous life, he scoffed at Lin Xiaoyu's preferences.

Even if he had money, he wouldn't bother buying it for Lin Xiaoyu.

In this life, he will do his best to fulfill all of Lin Xiaoyu's wishes.

"Hello sir, this scarf is quite expensive, it costs eighteen yuan."

The waiter gave an awkward smile, then pointed to the cheap scarves hanging not far away and said, "These scarves are quite nice, why don't you consider them?"

Eighteen yuan?

Wang Qian frowned slightly.

This price is indeed a bit expensive; it feels like paying an "intelligence tax."

but,

It's still within an acceptable range.

If Lin Xiaoyu likes it, this scarf is still worth buying.

But before he could speak, Zhou Mengdie's voice came from behind him, "Changxuan, I like this scarf too, will you buy it for me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Changxuan's face immediately turned red.

Although he had just boasted, he didn't have much money on him, only twelve yuan.

I thought Zhou Mengdie would only buy things worth less than ten yuan.

Unexpectedly, I actually took a liking to this scarf.

Eighteen yuan!

This is ten times more expensive than street vendor goods, exceeding his budget.

Even if he wanted to please the beautiful woman and show off in front of Wang Qian, this country bumpkin, he didn't have that much money at the moment.

"You want to buy this one too?"

Just as Zhong Changxuan was wondering what excuse to use to refuse, Wang Qian turned around and asked a question.

"Yes, Zhong Changxuan said he wanted to buy it and give it to me!"

Zhou Mengdie did not deny it.

She actually wanted to take this opportunity to show off her boyfriend to Wang Qian.
