Xia Qingqing asked around the school and finally found a teacher who knew Zhou Wei. The teacher looked to be in her forties.
However, the teacher did not have Zhou Wei's contact information. Fortunately, the teacher was very kind and specially asked in the group for Xia Qingqing.
Xia Qingqing smiled shyly: "Thank you, teacher. I lost my phone, could I borrow yours to make a call to her?"
"Of course, take it and use it," the teacher said with a smile, handing the phone to Xia Qingqing.
Xia Qingqing thanked her, then dialed the number. After about thirty seconds, the call was finally answered.
The moment Xia Qingqing heard Zhou Wei's voice from the other end, she finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Weiwei, it's me, Qingqing. I'm at your university gate right now. Come and pick me up."
"Qingqing?" Zhou Wei said in a shocked tone.
"You, how did you end up at my university gate? No, how did you get here...?"
Xia Qingqing lowered her voice and said softly, "Come pick me up first, and we'll talk when we meet."
Zhou Wei realized that now was not the time to get to the bottom of things, and immediately said, "Wait for me, I'll ask for leave right away and come over."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Qingqing smiled and returned the phone to the female teacher: "Thank you so much for today."
"You're welcome. I'm glad I could help. Next time you travel, remember to bring a travel companion. It's not safe for a girl to travel alone. It would be terrible if she ran into bad people in a situation like this. Luckily, you still knew to come to the school to look for her," the female teacher said with a gentle smile.
Xia Qingqing nodded obediently: "Okay, I will remember."
She told the female teacher that she was traveling alone and had accidentally lost her ID card and phone. Her cousin happened to work there, so she wanted to go and stay with her, but she couldn't remember her contact information and could only try her luck at her cousin's school.
The female teacher glanced at the time and said, "I still have class, so I'll be leaving now."
"Teacher, wait a minute, this is a souvenir I bought during my trip. Thank you for your help," Xia Qingqing said, taking a magnolia pendant out of her pocket and handing it over.
Upon seeing this, the female teacher quickly waved her hand, saying, "It was just a casual thing, how could I accept your things?"
Xia Qingqing didn't care whether she wanted to accept it or not, she just shoved it into her hand and ran away.
"This child," the female teacher smiled helplessly, then picked up the jade pendant in her hand and looked at it.
She initially thought it was one of those souvenirs that cost a few dozen yuan at a stall, but upon closer inspection, she discovered that it was actually a genuine jade pendant, which would cost at least four or five thousand yuan in a store.
Don't ask her how she figured it out, because she recently bought her daughter a jade bracelet of similar quality as a birthday gift and did her research for a while.
The female teacher was now in a bad mood. She had only helped with a small favor; why should she accept such an expensive gift? She quickly called Zhou Wei and told her about it, wanting her to take the gift back.
When Zhou Wei heard that Xia Qingqing had given it to her, she naturally wouldn't take it back. She smiled and said, "Teacher Liu, please accept it. It's nothing to Qingqing."
"I can't accept it. How can a teacher do such a thing?" Teacher Liu said helplessly.
“But Qingqing isn’t your student. I’m driving right now, so I’ll stop here and come see you next time,” Zhou Wei said.
"Okay, you can drive with peace of mind."
Teacher Liu shook her head as she looked at the jade pendant in her hand. From Zhou Wei's words, she knew that the girl was not short of money. Since she wasn't going back, she could only keep it.
I must say, this pendant is quite pretty. I wonder which store the girl bought it from.
......
"Qingqing! It really is you!" Zhou Wei exclaimed incredulously, hugging Xia Qingqing tightly.
"Why did you suddenly come here? Why didn't you send me a message? What's going on?"
Xia Qingqing pushed Zhou Wei, who was hugging her tightly, away a little: "Weiwei, you're hugging me too tightly, I can't breathe."
"Uh, sorry, sorry, I was just too excited," Zhou Wei quickly let go of his hand.
Xia Qingqing said, "Let's find a quiet place to talk. It's not suitable here with so many people coming and going."
"You're right, let's go to my car first. Are you hungry? I'll take you to get something to eat."
After the two got into the car, Xia Qingqing briefly recounted her experiences over the past few days.
Then, thankfully, he said, "Luckily I found you, otherwise I would really be sleeping on the streets."
She couldn't check into a hotel without an ID card, and she didn't dare to use anything from the system's warehouse. She was incredibly frustrated.
"So sudden! Your husband must be frantic with worry because he can't find you," Zhou Wei said instinctively.
Xia Qingqing was taken aback. She had tried her best not to think about Song Ze and her family during this time, but these emotions were still weighing on her heart. Hearing Zhou Wei mention this matter made her feel a little down.
Seeing this, Zhou Wei quickly changed the subject: "Then you can stay at my place for a while, since I live alone right now."
After graduating, she found a job that was far from home, so she bought a duplex apartment near her company, which was fine for two people.
"Yes, thank you, Weiwei. I really don't know what I would have done without you. I might have ended up hiding in the deep mountains and forests," Xia Qingqing said pitifully.
Zhou Wei was amused by her words: "The ID card is indeed a problem, but if we can't stay here for more than a few months as you said, then being careful shouldn't be a problem."
"Let's go eat first, then I'll take you to get a SIM card. You can just link it to my bank card."
Xia Qingqing has no shortage of cell phones; Zhou Wei had given her several before, so she could read novels, watch TV series, play single-player games, and so on when she was bored.
As soon as Xia Qingqing received the newly issued SIM card, she immediately added Zhou Wei's contact information.
Zhou Wei then found another bank card that she didn't use often, transferred some money into it, and then handed the card directly to Xia Qingqing: "Tell me when you're done using it, don't be shy."
"Haha, does that mean I'm being kept by a rich woman now?" Xia Qingqing said with a smile.
Zhou Wei glared at her and said, "Compared to the two of us, you're clearly the rich woman."
"What rich woman? I'm a penniless pauper right now. I'm begging for Weiwei to be my sugar mama," Xia Qingqing said, hugging Zhou Wei and acting coquettishly.
"No problem, but I need to inspect the goods first to see if you're worth this much," Zhou Wei said with a smile, touching Xia Qingqing's smooth face. Hmm, it really feels nice.
Xia Qingqing exaggeratedly wrapped her arms around herself: "You big pervert!!"
