"Here you are! Brother Qi, I know you don't like participating in sports meets, so I signed you up as a volunteer. Could you please hand over the sports meet registration list to the counselor while you're at the office?"
Wang Youli put the list on the homework book, said thank you, waved and left the classroom.
After handing his homework to the English teacher, Song Qi went to the counselor's desk, only to find that the counselor was not there.
Just as he finished packing up his things and was about to leave, he heard two female voices outside the door.
"Ruru, didn't Su Ping take leave? Why did you sign her up for the 3,000-meter race?"
Feng Ruru glared at her and smiled smugly: "I've disliked her for a long time. She thinks she's so important just because her father has some money. I'll take this opportunity to teach her a lesson!"
Then came their laughter.
Song Qi met them briefly and felt that the girl looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.
"Junior? What a coincidence! Are you here to see Counselor Zhang too?"
Feng Ruru didn't expect to run into Song Qi here, but then she remembered that the two classes had the same counselor, so she quickly signaled the girl next to her to be quiet.
Song Qi looked at the fake white-painted smiling face and nodded.
Then he took a step to the side. He was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt today, afraid of getting powder on his skin.
To Feng Ruru, this action seemed like an attempt to avoid suspicion. She stared at Song Qi's back, the list in her hand crumpled in her hand.
Why?! Why does Su Ping deserve to eat so well?!
"Achoo!" In the car, Su Ping sneezed several more times, and now she was even more certain that someone was cursing her.
Tu Hengchuan parked his car in front of a department store and opened the car door.
"Weren't we going to buy groceries?"
Tu Hengchuan noticed that Su Ping didn't head towards the vegetable market at all, but instead went upstairs to the second floor.
Su Ping went over, grabbed his arm, and pushed him upstairs.
"Let's go buy you two outfits first. My dad's clothes are nice, but the styles are too old-fashioned and don't suit you."
Tu Hengchuan looked down at the ill-fitting white shirt he was wearing. What she said made some sense.
So he stopped paying attention to her hand that was holding his arm.
The men's and women's clothing were sold separately. The saleswoman, dressed in a black uniform, greeted the two of them with a smile as they walked away.
"We just received some new styles today, would you two like to take a look?"
Tu Hengchuan's attire seemed to be an attempt to conceal his true intentions, which drew frequent glances from the saleswomen.
Su Ping was afraid he would be recognized, so she stepped forward to block the saleswoman's view: "It's fine for me to come and see. My boyfriend has no taste. You can tell just by looking at what he's wearing. If you didn't know better, you'd think he was my dad."
These words successfully amused the group and drew their attention to her.
"Baby, go sit over there and wait for me. I'll go pick out some clothes for you." Su Ping didn't care whether this way of addressing Tu Hengchuan was disgusting or not; she herself was certainly disgusted.
"Miss, your boyfriend has a great physique; he's obviously a clothes hanger."
"Okay, pack up those three outfits you just recommended."
So straightforward?
The saleswoman's eyes lit up, and just as she was about to say something, she noticed that Su Ping's gaze had been drawn to the waiting area.
Perhaps because his attire was too mysterious, several people surrounded Tu Hengchuan.
"Mom, the big brother's earrings look so nice, they're blue gems, I love them!"
"Why would a boy get his ears pierced? It makes him look neither male nor female, don't follow suit!"
The woman's words were merciless. Seeing that Tu Hengchuan didn't react, she thought he was an easy target and began to lecture her child from a moral high ground.
“Our Chenchen is meant to study hard and make something of herself in the future. She can’t be like those shady people who make money through crooked means.”
The sound was quite loud, and immediately everyone else in the store turned their attention to the earring Tu Hengchuan was wearing.
Oh no! This earring was specially designed for him by his mother, and he's worn it ever since his debut. He absolutely mustn't be recognized!
Su Ping quickly walked over there, pushed the woman aside, and covered Tu Hengchuan's ears.
Tu Hengchuan hadn't expected her to do that. When her soft, warm fingertips touched his ear, his heart fluttered uncontrollably.
Is she protecting him?
“Baby, you’re not some poor boy. I’ve told you before not to wear these kinds of gems worth tens of millions on your ears. It’s not that we’re afraid of thieves stealing them, it’s that we’re afraid of thieves eyeing them.”
Who are you calling a thief?
The woman realized Su Ping was subtly criticizing her and glared at her fiercely.
"Whoever gets angry gets the last laugh."
"Are you kidding me? This piece of junk earring is worth tens of millions? I wouldn't even take it for free!"
"Shh." Su Ping released Tu Hengchuan's ear, not noticing that his eyes darkened.
"Don't say that. It's just that poverty limits your imagination, not that it doesn't exist."
The woman was furious. Knowing she couldn't win the argument, she decided not to continue arguing. Remembering she had come to buy clothes for her husband, she pulled her son into the store.
"What are you doing?" Su Ping asked, stepping in front of the woman.
She wasn't exactly the innocent, pure-looking type to begin with, and now, with a hint of disdain in her eyes, she looked like someone you didn't want to mess with.
"What, do you own this place?"
"It's not my family's business, but as you wish, I'll buy all the clothes here."
[Host, your expression is so smug, I feel like punching you.]
Tu Hengchuan's hand, which was resting on his knee, twitched slightly at her words, and a strange feeling rose from the bottom of his heart.
Fearing the woman wouldn't believe her, Su Ping handed the card from her bag to the cashier next to her.
The cashier swallowed hard and reluctantly took it.
Their boss bought the whole area to open a clothing store, a luxury brand one at that. It's completely different from the clothes sold in the market. Just when she thought Su Ping was just joking, she saw the message that the payment had been successfully deducted.
? ? ?
Today's sales are equivalent to more than half a year's sales!
Immediately, the way the group looked at Su Ping was as if he were a god of wealth.
When the woman saw that Tu Hengchuan was serious, she knew she had messed up and was unwilling to leave like this, so she couldn't help but mock Tu Hengchuan.
"What kind of man hides behind a woman and doesn't say a word? If you're so capable of being a gigolo, then don't be a kept man!"
"He's not a gigolo, he's my baby."
Su Ping smiled maliciously, watching the woman's face turn redder and redder.
Finally, the woman left with her two sons after saying "Indecent" in a comment.
"Miss, could you please leave your address? We have too many clothes, and we'll deliver the receipts and clothes to your door later."
"No need, just give me the three pieces of clothing I asked for at the beginning, and pack up the rest and send them to the Su Group."
She's using her dad's money to buy employee benefits for him. Her dad probably won't blame her, right?
Thinking this way, Su Ping felt much less guilty.
