Zhou Ling's shrewish and unreasonable behavior made the well-meaning neighbors feel that their good intentions had been wasted, and for a moment, no one said anything more and they all dispersed.
Zhou Ling was still not satisfied and deliberately raised her voice: "Instead of having time to care about other people's families, why don't you look at your own first? Are your daughter and son working? How much do they earn a month? Is it enough to live on? Are they married? Have they had children? Are their children doing well in school? You don't care about your own family's affairs, but you worry about other people's affairs. How pathetic is that!"
After saying that, Zhou Ling snorted, feeling much better, and then slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
Zhou Ling's remarks undoubtedly sparked further discussion among the neighbors who had already come downstairs. They said that if any noise came from Zhou Ling's young home in the future, no one would care and would simply pretend they didn't see it.
The three-day elimination rounds passed in the blink of an eye.
Yenching University had a significant number of events from various grades that secured tickets to the finals of the sports meet, making it the best year in the history of hosting the city's university sports meet.
Besides Zhou Chen's significant contributions, other outstanding students also emerged.
For example, in the badminton event, a male student who was much more handsome than Zhang Hao and was regarded as the school's heartthrob by many female students was very popular. As soon as he appeared, most of the girls in the gymnasium cheered for him.
Zhou Chen, despite being the top scorer in the college entrance examination, is far less popular than the others.
Zhou Chen was a little envious. This kid was really handsome and could definitely be an actor. If he entered the entertainment industry, he could even play the male lead.
The sophomore girls' volleyball team was equally dazzling. Zhou Chen saw that a campus beauty was also a member of the girls' volleyball team, which made the boys collectively excited and regard her as a goddess.
In the past few days, with Zhang Hao, a beauty who knows everything about Yanda University, Zhou Chen has met almost all the campus beauties and department beauties. It has to be said that they are all very beautiful, each with their own unique charm.
However, if he were to rank them, he would think that among the four campus beauties, Qin Yiren is the most beautiful, followed by Wang Shiyu...
“Brother Chen, the group is discussing the sponsorship of Secret Snow Ice Cream. I really want to tell them that Brother Chen is the owner of Secret Snow Ice Cream, and that Brother Chen also paid for all the water and snacks.”
Looking at the messages in the QQ group on his computer, Wang Rui felt extremely uncomfortable about keeping this to himself.
“If you expose this, Brother Chen will immediately become the headline news on the Yanda Forum,” Zhang Hao said with a smile.
There's no doubt about that, because Mi Xue Ice Cream is very popular, with long queues every day. Not to mention, Mi Xue Ice Cream is now sponsoring the sports event, which has earned it a lot of goodwill from many people.
The business of Secret Snow Ice City will be exposed sooner or later. As long as the investigation leads to Xu Dalong, it will be connected to him.
Zhou Chen didn't intend to remain unknown forever; for now, she was just trying to keep it a secret for as long as possible.
"Ruizi, have you confronted Yang Meng about it?"
Zhou Chen didn't want to show off or brag in front of her roommates, so she didn't talk about the sponsorship. Instead, she asked about Wang Rui's relationship progress.
When this was mentioned, Wang Rui immediately fell silent.
"Ruizi, what's going on?"
Zhang Hao looked over as well.
Wang Rui remained silent for a while, then briefly recounted his conversation with Yang Meng on the phone.
"Slow to warm up, haha... I think that's bullshit, just an excuse."
When Yang Meng said that she was a slow starter and needed further observation, Zhang Hao found it ridiculous.
Zhou Chen was actually happy for Wang Rui, because Yang Meng and Zhang Xiaoxiao, that green tea bitch, lived in the same dormitory and were very close to each other every day. They would be subtly influenced by each other. If Zhang Xiaoxiao said a few bad things about him, he would hesitate and change his mind if he originally wanted to agree to Wang Rui's request.
"Ruizi, the next one will be even better."
This was Zhou Chen's suggestion.
"Well, I wasn't really that sad, because during the days I deliberately didn't contact her, she didn't talk to me much either, so I roughly know what place I hold in her heart."
Wang Rui, who is usually all smiles and laughter, became particularly serious when talking about this matter.
To help Wang Rui recover, the four roommates went to an internet cafe that night and stayed up all night.
Zhou Chen originally intended to treat everyone to a meal.
Wang Rui rushed to pay the bill, setting up four machines and ordering a bucket of instant noodles and sausage for each person, along with a bottle of soda. The atmosphere instantly became more enjoyable.
Zhou Chen and his two friends played games, having a great time.
Li Wei didn't participate; instead, he stared at the screen, his brow furrowed, occasionally typing out a couple of lines of code.
at the same time,
Yenching University girls' dormitory
Yang Meng told her three roommates about rejecting Wang Rui. Liu Cui thought that Wang Rui was actually a good guy, and since he lived in the same dormitory as Zhou Chen, they would definitely have a future together.
Zhang Xiaoxiao immediately objected: "Nobody knows how long Zhou Chen's business can last. What if his business goes bankrupt in a year or two and he loses everything? Can he still help Wang Rui? Don't forget, how old is he? His success is largely due to luck. If he makes a mistake in judgment or his luck doesn't improve, he could go bankrupt overnight."
Hearing this, Yang Meng's earlier doubts about whether she had made the wrong decision solidified. She felt Zhang Xiaoxiao was right; good luck couldn't last forever. Besides, Zhou Chen's business was Zhou Chen's; what did it have to do with Wang Rui? After graduation, Zhou Chen and Wang Rui might drift apart, which was entirely possible. But if she found a high-quality boyfriend directly, she wouldn't have these concerns.
“Mengmeng, my boyfriend told me that in a couple of days, he’s going to have dinner with that senior. I’ll bring you along, and he’ll bring his friends too. You two can get to know each other. I guarantee he’ll be a hundred times better than Wang Rui. According to that senior, his friends are all very well-off and good-looking.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoxiao's eyes narrowed with laughter. He took Zhang Xiaoxiao's hand and said, "Thank you, Xiaoxiao. If I can be happy, you will be my greatest benefactor."
"We're all good friends and classmates, of course I want the best for you."
Zhang Xiaoxiao had a fake smile on her face, but unfortunately, no one in the entire dormitory could see through it, let alone know what she was thinking.
On the other end,
Zhou Ling took her daughter home from the hospital.
Since that day, when Zhou Ling returned home, she found that Zhao Xiaoya had a high fever, so she rushed her to the hospital to see a doctor.
As a result, after a series of examinations and medications, the money he had saved from coming to Yanjing from Fanjia County was almost entirely spent, leaving him with very little.
This incident also delayed her from going to Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua to ask for the money.
After coaxing Zhao Xiaoya to sleep
Zhou Ling made up her mind to go to those heartless parents tomorrow and make them pay back the money. She was struggling to raise her daughter and was living a miserable life. Why were Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua living so carefree? Their money was all hers and had to be returned to her.
