Liu Jiu said she was going to treat everyone, so she needed to make preparations in advance.
She has money. Over the years, she has saved up the pocket money her mother gave her, which amounts to several hundred yuan.
Liu Jiu had no idea where to eat or what to eat. Since Aunt Xiang came to live with them, they rarely ate out anymore. When they did eat out, it was mostly at her maternal grandfather's restaurant.
Liu Jiu thought about it all night but couldn't think of a suitable place. Oh well, he'd ask Mu Nanfang later.
After breakfast, Liu Jiu changed into the blue dress and leather sandals that her aunt had sent, along with a matching small bag. In the mirror, Liu Jiu had her hair in a ponytail, and her round face and round eyes, resembling her mother's, looked completely harmless.
"Wow, it's so beautiful, sis! What are you doing?"
Sanqi looked at his older sister coming downstairs and thought she was really different.
"How is it? Does it feel strange? I feel a little uneasy."
Liu Jiu tugged at her skirt, still not used to wearing it. But she really liked this skirt, and if she didn't wear it now, she wouldn't have another chance to wear it once school started.
"No surprise, she looks beautiful. My Liu Jiu is all grown up now."
Bonnie is very proud of her daughter, who is both academically and athletically gifted, possessing both beauty and ability.
"Sis, you haven't told me yet, why are you dressed so nicely?"
"I went to the movies and had dinner with Mu Nanfang."
Liu Jiu hadn't decided what to eat yet, feeling it wasn't quite sincere enough.
"Watching a movie, having dinner, and with Mu Nanfang?"
Bonnie's heart raced. Could it be that her daughter had already fallen in love? Was it a bit too early?
"Yes, it's my treat. I want to thank Mu Nanfang for helping me with my problems and taking up so much of his study time."
Looking at her daughter's expressionless face, Bonnie realized she was worrying for nothing. This child hadn't figured things out yet. Would she really need the government to find her a partner someday?
"Okay, do you have money?"
"Mom, I have money. I've had a lot of pocket money over the years."
Liu Jiu patted her small bag; she had about a hundred yuan on it!
"Wow, sis, you've saved up all your allowance?"
Sanqi is a bit unbelievable. They get three yuan of pocket money every month, and he's spent almost all of it. So has Xuanyi.
"I don't really need to spend money, have you all spent it all?"
Liu Jiu also looked surprised. Where did the money go?
"Hey, the sun's really shining today!"
Sanqi glanced at Gu Xuanyi, and the two of them went upstairs in perfect unison.
"You little rascal, you're fast. Daughter, go ahead and have a good day, relax."
"Okay, Mom, I'm leaving now."
Liu Jiu pushed open the door and went out, leaving Bao Ni with fluctuating emotions. Sigh, raising a child is a lifelong worry.
At the entrance of the family compound, Mu Nanfang had been waiting for half a day, leaning on his bicycle.
He spent the whole morning getting ready at home, changing his clothes several times, which earned him a scolding from his second brother.
"Mu Nanfang, have you been waiting for ages?"
"Sixty-nine?"
Looking at Liu Jiu in front of him, Mu Nanfang felt an urge to rub his eyes.
"What's wrong? Is it strange? My mom and Sanqi think it looks great!"
Liu Jiu noticed that Mu Nanfang's expression was a bit off. Could it be that her mother and Sanqi were comforting her?
"No, it looks great. It's just the first time I've seen you dressed like this."
Mu Nanfang felt like he was about to have a heart attack; the shock was too great.
"Let's go see a movie first. What do you want to eat? I've been thinking about it all night and still don't know what to eat."
Liu Jiu pushed his bicycle and walked side by side with Mu Nanfang, keeping the same speed.
"Let's go out for Western food, it's on me, to celebrate your successful completion of the college entrance examination, and to celebrate Gu Yun Chu wearing a skirt today."
Mu Nanfang thought that since Liu Jiu was dressed so formally, it was necessary to have a sense of ceremony.
"I promised to treat you, why are you trying to take it from me?"
"You treat me to a movie, I treat you to dinner. Next time, I'll treat you to a movie, and you'll treat me to dinner."
Mu Nanfang said sincerely, "Liu Jiu thought about it and agreed. There are still many days left in summer vacation, and we can treat each other to meals."
After arriving at the movie theater and locking the car, Liu Jiu went to buy the tickets.
Mu Nanfang went to buy popcorn, sunflower seeds, and two bottles of soda.
"Mu Nanfang, you bought so much stuff?"
Liu Jiu was a little dumbfounded; she had forgotten about this.
"I see everyone else is buying it. It would be fun for us to watch a movie, eat, and drink at the same time."
"Okay, but you've spent money again. Do you have any money left? I just found out that Sanqi and Gu Xuanyi have run out of their allowances. I don't know what they bought. I don't think they bought anything. They've saved up several hundred yuan!"
Liu Jiu is afraid that Mu Nanfang will be like San Qi and the others, and then they're doomed.
"I still have money. I haven't spent all my allowance, and I also have school subsidies and scholarships!"
Mu Nanfang thought Liu Jiu was adorable and quite capable, a real money-saving expert.
"That's good. If you're short of money, I can lend it to you."
Mu Nanfang held a high position in Liu Jiu's heart; he was a friend she could borrow money from.
"Okay, I'll borrow it from you if I need it."
Mu Nanfang was also happy, because he and Liu Jiu could now lend each other money.
"Let's go, the movie is about to start."
Liu Jiu pulled Mu Nanfang along, and they went into the movie theater together.
The movie theater was quite crowded, almost full. Liu Jiu's ticket was for the back row.
“Here I am, Mu Nanfang.”
Liu Jiu found a spot and called Mu Nanfang over. He was carrying popcorn and such, which was quite funny.
"Let me wipe it, then you can sit down."
