Su Zhao's smile faltered for a moment, and he gave a somewhat bleak tug at the corner of his mouth.
He looked at Xu Nuo, his voice still gentle: "Xiao Nuo, I want to talk to you about something."
He stood up and pointed to the door.
Xu Nuo noticed that his expression was a bit strange, so she went outside and asked in a low voice, "Su Zhao, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Seeing the concern in her eyes, Su Zhao felt a sharp pain in his heart and clenched his fists tightly.
He was indeed feeling unwell, but not physically.
He didn't know when it started, but his impression of Xu Nuo slowly changed.
This is not the spoiled and willful Xu Nuo from high school, but a cute, lively, and vibrant Xu Nuo.
They both got into the same university, and he was overjoyed for countless nights because of it.
When his parents said that she made the herbal tea and told him to cherish it, he thought to himself that it had nothing to do with the herbal tea. Even without the herbal tea, he would treat her the same way.
I just never expected that she had already…
"Xiao Nuo, that man."
"Um?"
Su Zhao's face betrayed some emotion: "Mr. Li, are you really sure you want to spend your life with him?"
Xu Nuo wasn't stupid; she knew what Su Zhao meant.
She nodded, feigning ignorance, her voice beaming: "Yes, but we haven't had our wedding banquet yet. We'll invite you to our wedding feast then."
Su Zhao forced a smile: "Okay."
Xu Nuo returned to the private room, and Liu Meixiang asked, "Where is Su Zhao?"
Xu Nuo said, "He said he wanted to go downstairs for some fresh air."
Liu Meixiang had long suspected that Su Zhao's feelings for Xu Nuo went beyond just being from the same hometown, so she asked, "He didn't say anything to you, and then you rejected him, did he?"
Xu Nuo shook her head: "He only asked about me and Li Xian. I said I would invite him to my wedding."
Liu Meixiang and Danfeng exchanged a glance.
King Xiang was in love, but the goddess was indifferent.
Liu Meixiang said worriedly, "Why don't I go down and check on him, and comfort him while I'm at it?"
Xu Nuo took a sip of water and looked at Liu Meixiang with a smile in her big eyes: "Okay, Xiangxiang, go and bring him some warmth."
...
After lunch, Xu Nuo and Dan Feng went back to their dormitory for a nap.
Liu Meixiang lived on the third floor. When she arrived, she waved to the two of them and said, "Nuonuo, I'm leaving."
Xu Nuo gave her a sweet flying kiss: "Good afternoon, Xiangxiang."
When they reached the fourth floor, Danfeng squeezed next to Xu Nuo and put a banknote in her pocket.
Xu Nuo took it out and asked her strangely, "Why are you giving me money?"
Danfeng, clutching her swollen belly, let out a satisfied burp: "As for today's meal, you just gave me some moisturizing oil this morning, so I can't take advantage of you again, or I'll feel bad."
Xu Nuo stuffed the money back into her hand and said in a soft, coquettish voice, "I don't want your money. I need to feed you a little so you can help me with my tasks."
Danfeng pointed to herself: "Me? What can I do to help you?"
Xu Nuo blinked: "Would you like to do some part-time work to earn some pocket money?"
make money?
Danfeng certainly thought about it. Although her family wasn't poor, they only had enough to cover her daily living expenses. She often only ate five cents worth of pickled vegetables at the cafeteria.
A meal like today would probably cost her half a month's living expenses.
Danfeng lamented, "But I don't know how to do anything."
Xu Nuo said, "You can write product slogans. Nuomei has many women's products."
Danfeng exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"
Xu Nuo nodded. Zhong Xu's clothing store and Nuomei's drugstore have both established themselves in Shanghai. Next, some of the staff in Shanghai will be transferred to other provinces and cities.
Shanghai naturally needs manpower.
Danfeng was overjoyed and almost burst into tears.
"Don't worry, I will definitely do my best."
The two of them chatted and laughed as they pushed open the dormitory door.
Everyone eagerly spoke up.
"Nuonuo, you're back!"
"Are you thirsty? Do you want some water? I've already let it cool down."
Xu Weibao also spoke up: "Nuonuo".
She had been crying ever since she got back. When she saw Xu Nuo return, she quickly went up to her and said, "Nuonuo, I was wrong yesterday, but I was really scared at the time. Please forgive me."
As soon as she apologized, the other people in the dormitory looked at her expectantly.
Jasmine and Xiaojing, who signed the complaint letter yesterday, have both been expelled from the original eight-person dormitory.
When Jasmine left, her eyes were swollen from crying. The family searched for almost everyone they could find that night. They originally thought that Li Xian was just a businessman and could not possibly get ahead of an official. But when the other party heard that Li Xian was Zhong Xu, they said directly, "Even if you offend someone, I can't help you."
What's frightening is that Jasmine's mother received a call from the factory early in the morning, telling her, both openly and subtly, that offending Zhong Xu's Li Xian would have an impact on the textile factory, and if the matter wasn't resolved properly, the factory manager position would have to be replaced.
Jasmine's mother dared not say no, and brought Jasmine to withdraw from school early in the morning.
To everyone's surprise, Lu Minghui also dropped out of school.
Last night, all the parties involved signed the apology letter, which was printed in many copies and posted at the entrances of various sections of the school.
The events were explained in detail.
A crowd had gathered on the bulletin board.
"Lu Minghui? That Lu Minghui from the English department is so vicious?"
"He always acts so high and mighty, I never expected him to be like this."
"Wasn't it said that Lu Minghui's father was a high-ranking official? How come..."
"There are always mountains beyond mountains, and people beyond people. Didn't they say before that the founder of Zhongxu was extremely powerful and that all the high-ranking officials in Shanghai were on good terms with him?"
"These people deserve it; of all people to offend, they had to offend that one."
Dropping out of school was like the best fire extinguishing rain, not only putting out all the rumors, but also making everyone's fear of Xu Nuo even greater.
He was expelled from school just because someone said a few idle words about her.
Who would dare offend her?
When the others in the dormitory found out, they were naturally flustered, feeling both relieved and regretful.
She was glad she wasn't like Jasmine and Xiaojing, and she regretted not speaking up for Xu Nuo. If she were like Danfeng, she could be playing with Xu Nuo right now.
Xu Nuo was back for a lunch break and had no intention of chatting with them. She said indifferently, "Since we are roommates, I don't expect us to be close, but I hope we can respect each other."
After saying that, he returned to his bunk.
Everyone nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, you're right."
There was only one class in the afternoon. After class, Xu Nuo did not go back to the dormitory, but walked towards the school gate.
Li Xian's car was already waiting at the door.
As soon as Xu Nuo got into the car, the man's cold and hard face softened, and he reached out to pull her into his arms.
He gently patted her head with his large hand.
"Nuonuo".
She leaned softly against him, humming, "My hair, my hair, it's all messed up."
Li Xian chuckled softly and gently straightened her hair with his fingers: "No, it's not messy."
Are you tired from class?
Xu Nuo nodded, making a fake crying expression: "I'm so tired."
Li Xian gently pinched her nose: "I'll give you an extra bowl of rice when we get home."
Xu Nuo: "..."?
