Chapter 19
[Coriander Essence who loves chili peppers]: Really? ? ? ?
Seeing her surprised expression, Gu Xun copied the address.
"No. 89, Hua'an Street, Tongjing District, Qing'an City."
This line of words, like the photo of him holding milk tea, invisibly brought them closer together.
Before, I had no intention of meeting him even if we were in the same city, but now I am at least willing to give him my address.
Gu Xun's smile spread to his eyes and completely spread out at the corners of his mouth. He washed his hands and was about to type when another message came from the other side.
[Coriander Essence for Chili Lovers]: The second piece is really half price! ! !
[Is it illegal to eat vegetables, sir]:.
Yue Qianling’s first reaction was to go to TB to see if the second item was really half price.
When she saw the big red label, her brows lit up with joy, and she quickly made up her mind that if they bought two together and calculated the discount, both parties would benefit.
But a keyboard costs nearly three thousand yuan each, and the second one is half price, which means each one costs more than two thousand yuan, which doesn't seem to be much cheaper.
Yue Qianling bit her finger and gradually gave up the idea.
In the past, she would ask her parents for money and spend more than two thousand to buy a keyboard without blinking an eye.
But since the internship, she has been lamenting every day how difficult it is to make money. There are countless expenses to support herself, and she never knows where her salary is spent.
At the same time, I also realized how lavishly I spent money in the past, and I felt heartbroken for my parents just thinking about it.
Therefore, she began to intentionally save unnecessary expenses. Until now, she is still using the black switch keyboard she bought at the beginning of her junior year, and she has refused to replace the graphics card.
It's just this keyboard...
She really likes it.
Yue Qianling looked at her salary card again and felt completely hopeless.
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: Your father appreciates your filial piety, so there’s no need for a gift.
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: Keep the money and treat yourself better.
【Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks】: Dad loves you =3=
【School Prince】: Shut up and go to sleep.
【Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks】：Okay.
【School Prince】: Good night.
Starting from the twenty-ninth day of the lunar year, Yue Qianling was taken by her parents to various places to pay New Year's greetings, or to receive guests at home. She was ordered to clean the house all the time, and it felt like she was busier than working.
It's good this way. She hardly ever has time to sit alone and daydream. She is busy during the day and goes out to dinner and sing with her high school classmates at night. There is always a lot of noise around her.
As long as she doesn't think about Gu Xun's girlfriend, she is still very happy.
In a blink of an eye, it was noon on the sixth day of the New Year.
The statutory Spring Festival holiday has passed. Yue Qianling took a high-speed train ticket back to Jiangcheng in the afternoon and is now packing her luggage.
But when he thought about going back to Jiangcheng again, and seeing Gu Xun's shadow everywhere, whether in the company or at school, his mood suddenly plummeted.
The closer she once longed for has now become a shackle for her.
Thinking of this, Yue Qianling took extra time to pack her luggage.
She doesn't want to go back to Jiangcheng at all now.
Twenty minutes later, Yue Qianling put the suitcase in the corner of the room, sighed, and prepared to go to the kitchen to cut some fruit.
The TV in the living room was replaying the Spring Festival Gala as background music, while Ju Yunzhen was sitting on the sofa chatting on WeChat.
Yue Qianling poked her head out and shouted, "Mom! Do you want an apple or a banana? Do you want some juice?"
This sentence happened to be recorded in the voice message she just sent. She turned her head to look at Yue Qianling and said, "Two oranges will be enough."
Yue Qianling cut the apples in a short while and brought out two oranges.
When she passed by Ju Yunzhen, she happened to open a WeChat voice message.
"My daughter is so good, so considerate, unlike my son, ah..."
Mothers don’t like to type when using WeChat, and their voice messages are basically broadcast publicly. Yue Qianling has heard a lot of gossip from Ju Yunzhen’s WeChat in the past few days since she came back.
The voice of this auntie was a little unfamiliar. Yue Qianling peeled the orange and handed it to her, and asked casually, "Who is it?"
Ju Yunzhen took the orange, said "Auntie Gu" casually, and then pressed the voice button.
Yue Qianling was startled and forgot to chew the apple in her mouth. She pricked up her ears to listen to her mother's words.
"What's so caring about that? Sons and daughters are equally annoying."
Ju Yunzhen chewed the orange peeled by her upset daughter and said, "Your son is so outstanding, so handsome, and his grades are so good. If our Lingling was half as good as your son in studying, we wouldn't have to spend so much money to send her to study art."
Yue Qianling: “…”
She frowned and muttered in dissatisfaction, "I didn't study art because I didn't study well in school. I just like art. Don't talk nonsense."
Ju Yunzhen glanced at her sideways, ignored her, and clicked on a new voice message.
"You don't know what's the point of having good grades. You've loved playing games since you were a kid. You didn't even go home for the New Year."
Gu Xun didn’t go home for the New Year? !
Yue Qianling's originally dormant nerves were aroused again, and she subconsciously moved closer to her mother, as if she could hear more news this way.
Unexpectedly, Ju Yunzhen stabbed her own daughter's heart as soon as she opened her mouth.
"How can a company not give a holiday during the Chinese New Year? Is your son in a relationship?"
The other party replied quickly.
"I haven't heard him mention it. I have to ask him. If they are really in love, would they not even go home?"
Yue Qianling's scalp suddenly tightened and her head was buzzing. Ju Yunzhen put down her phone and went to the bathroom after hearing this.
Although she had already learned from Gu Xun himself that he had a girlfriend, when she heard his mother say that, Yue Qianling tried to interpret ten thousand possibilities from it, just like doing a reading comprehension, which caused her to sit on the sofa, unable to move her legs.
The phone on the table vibrated.
Ju Yunzhen had not come out of the bathroom for a long time. Yue Qianling looked at her mobile phone and wanted to swipe the screen several times to listen to what Gu Xun's mother said.
These few minutes were broken down into seconds, and seemed like centuries.
Until Ju Yunzhen came out of the bathroom, Yue Qianling looked at her eagerly, waiting for her to play the voice message.
But Ju Yunzhen picked up her phone and walked into the room, saying, "I'm going to change my clothes, you clean up the table, and we're going to the high-speed rail station."
"Oh, okay..."
Her mother and Gu Xun's mother have been living in two cities apart since they graduated from high school. They have met only a few times over the years and have not been in touch much. They occasionally greet and chat, but the topics cannot last long.
So Yue Qianling really wanted to hold her back and listen to what the other party said in response, but she didn't know how to start.
Sitting on the high-speed train back to Jiangcheng, Yue Qianling's breathing became heavier and heavier.
If she had known earlier, she would not have cut that apple, and she would not have heard the news that Gu Xun did not even go home for the New Year in order to accompany his girlfriend.
How sweet does one have to be to do such a thing.
The mood that I had spent more than half a month to sort out was ruined in an instant.
When they arrived at school in the evening, Yue Qianling dragged her suitcase weakly and opened the dormitory door. Yin Xue was hanging clothes to dry inside.
"Why are you here so late?"
"There's a traffic jam on the road."
Yue Qianling put down the suitcase and saw a cardboard box filled with various sundries placed next to Yin Xue's desk. "What are you doing?"
"Isn't it graduation time?"
Yin Xue said, "I joined a second-hand group at school and planned to sell all the things that are inconvenient to take away."
Yue Qianling said "Oh", washed her hands, sat down at the table and planned to check Weibo and take a break.
She didn’t know if her phone was being monitored, but when she refreshed the page, an advertisement for a group purchase at a peripherals store popped up.
The keyboard she had her eye on was at the event.
Yue Qianling clicked on the details and saw that if she bought in a group, she could save nearly a thousand yuan, but she still needed seven people to form a group.
In addition, she didn't expect that she would receive New Year's money this year, so the shopping desire that had been suppressed for a long time immediately surged up.
She immediately sent the link to the four-person game group.
【Nutomi Mahua】: Anyone want to buy a keyboard? ! Come and join me in a team fight!
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: @Camel, does your wife play games? Do you want to give her one?
【School Prince】:?
【Glutinous rice twisted dough sticks】：?
[School Prince]: Didn’t I give you one?
【Glutinous rice twisted dough sticks】：? ? ? ?
Yue Qianling stared at the phone screen in disbelief.
【Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks】: Did you really buy it for me? ? ?
【School Prince】: What else?
[School Prince]: After so many days, you still haven’t received it?
【School Prince】: Wrong address?
【Glutinous rice twisted dough sticks】：? ? ?
Yue Qianling was speechless for a long while and wanted to say something several times, but she felt something was wrong.
At this time, Yin Xue was walking back and forth in the dormitory, humming a song.
"In love, happy, I feel like I'm on a jet plane."
Yue Qianling looked at the phone with an indescribable look.
She really looked like she was riding on a jet now.
"Yin Xue, stop singing. I want to ask you something."
Yin Xue sorted out her clothes and said without looking back, "Put it down."
Yue Qianling licked the corner of his mouth and said hesitantly: "It's still the story of that netizen. If he suddenly gave you a very expensive gift, what do you think he meant?"
"Um?"
Yin Xue turned back suddenly, "How much?"
Yue Qianling said painfully: "It's almost three thousand."
“…”
Yin Xue was silent for a long time and didn't say anything, but her eyes expressed everything.
Yue Qianling sighed: "You think so too...right?"
“This should be it.”
In fact, when Yue Qianling asked Yin Xue this question for the first time, Yin Xue really thought it was nothing, after all, it was just a phone call to wish a happy new year.
But after learning about the gift, her mind began to change.
In this day and age, it’s really easy to develop feelings for someone who plays games for a long time.
Yin Xue used to play an online game, and his guild of 20 to 30 people could produce and sell its own products in five or six teams.
What's more, Yue Qianling's voice is indeed very nice, so it is normal for others to associate her with a beauty based on her voice.
“Tsk.”
Yin Xue shook her head, "You've been very popular with women lately."
After seeing that the other party had sent so many question marks and then stopped responding, Gu Xun realized that something was wrong.
He thought about it, copied the address the other party gave him, and pasted it into Gaode Map.
One second later, a small red mark showing the location appears on the map.
Gu Xun zoomed in on the map again and again.
Until it clearly showed on it - Qing'an City Police Station.
Gu Xun: “……?”
I fucking...
Just as he was about to type something, Yue Qianling sent him two private messages.
When Gu Xun opened it, he burst out laughing.
[The chili-loving coriander essence transfers 2888 yuan to you]
[Coriander Essence who loves chili peppers]: You... know that I have someone I like, right?
