Chapter 454 Perfunctory



Qi Yanxu said to Jiang Hua, "Don't argue with your family anymore. Your father told me that you're staying in a hotel because you and your sister had a fight. He said he was worried sick about you, but he was too busy with work to come see you."

Jiang Hua stammered, unsure what to say, and finally stopped talking. She looked at Qi Yanxu, waiting for him to speak.

Qi Yanxu said, "I originally wanted you to live in my house, but since you haven't married into my family yet, I think it's better to forget about it."

Jiang Hua nodded in agreement in her heart and said, "Let's forget it, let's forget it. I'm not going. This hotel is great, I really like it. I'd rather stay here for a month than stay in your room for a year. You should just enjoy yourself." Jiang Hua wasn't stupid enough to say that out loud; if she did, she might get ganged up on. What Jiang Hua feared most was something serious happening.

Thinking about staying in a hotel, Jiang Hua thought of the incredibly stingy Gu Yiming. If it weren't for him refusing to let her stay at his house, none of this would have happened. It's all Gu Yiming's fault; he's so stingy! He has so many houses, yet he won't give her a room. He really is stingy. She also wondered why Liang Jiacheng had become like this. He wouldn't let them copy the questions they clearly knew how to do. Oh my god, that's brilliant! I think copying homework is a wonderful thing, yes.

He muttered to himself silently, but dared not say it aloud. If Qi Yanxu heard him, who knew what kind of trouble he would cause him?

Qi Yanxu also felt it was getting late and he had stayed there long enough, so he decided to go back. He told Jiang Hua he was leaving, but just when Jiang Hua thought the Buddha was finally gone, Qi Yanxu came back and said, "Wait for me downstairs at this hotel tomorrow, I'll pick you up." Then he closed the door without giving Jiang Hua any time to think and left gracefully.

Jiang Hua never expected that Qi Yanxu would actually offer to take her home. Didn't he understand what she had said so clearly? If he didn't understand, Jiang Hua began to doubt her own communication skills, so she scratched her head.

But Jiang Hua couldn't let herself be embarrassed alone, so she called Gu Yiming. No matter what, this time, even if she was going to die, she would drag Gu Yiming down with her.

The call connected within seconds, and Jiang Hua's very familiar voice came from the other end. It was probably because Gu Yiming wanted to sleep but was woken up by Jiang Hua's call.

"Hey, what's up?"

Jiang Hua immediately perked up and said, "Gu Yiming, I know it's you. I asked if you'd come with me to block people tomorrow. I'm about to be restricted, and I need your help right now. You can't just stand by and watch me die, right? Although you didn't help me today, I believe you can definitely help me with what I need to do tomorrow. I trust you." She said to Gu Yiming on the other end of the phone.

Gu Yiming thought about it and realized he didn't seem to have anything planned for tomorrow, so he could go. But just as he was about to agree, he stopped himself. No matter what, he had to trick this girl.

So he said to Jiang Hua, "I can go with you, but I need to be paid, okay? I haven't even calculated your errand fee yet, it's already a good deal."

Jiang Hua touched the money she had left and found that she didn't have much. For a wealthy person, the reward should be tens of thousands, but Jiang Hua only had a few thousand yuan. For Gu Yiming, that should be considered very little.

So she chuckled and said to Gu Yiming on the other end of the phone, "Oh dear, talking about money hurts feelings, don't you think? It wasn't about money to begin with, but now that you've brought it up, I feel like I'm being too stingy. Besides, I'm not stingy at all, it's just that I don't have any money. If I did, you would know that we used to exchange WeChat red envelopes. That was really something back then."

Gu Yiming didn't need the several thousand yuan; he was just teasing Jiang Hua. Besides, he knew that Jiang Hua was currently living away from home, and if he took the several thousand yuan from her, she would be left destitute. What Gu Yiming needed to do now was figure out how to help Jiang Hua.

For Gu Yiming, this amount of money was like a few cents to a modern person, but for others... it was different. Gu Yiming lived with money all his life, so he had money in his heart, money in his eyes, and money everywhere he went. Therefore, Gu Yiming didn't need Jiang Hua's few thousand yuan. If he really wanted to get back at Jiang Hua, it wouldn't be in this way, because Gu Yiming's methods were different from others. His methods, in terms of planning and other aspects, were different. Therefore, Gu Yiming had to wait for Jiang Hua; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to see him so often.

After Jiang Hua's persistent pleading, Gu Yiming reluctantly agreed to be paired with her and also reluctantly agreed to his classmates arranging his seating.

So Gu Yiming said to Jiang Hua, who was already overjoyed, "Then be there on time tomorrow. If I don't see you, I'll leave immediately. I won't wait for you. I'll give you two or three minutes at most. Do you understand? Don't say I heartlessly left you alone. It's actually because you were too slow."

Jiang Hua nodded obediently and said to Gu Yiming on the other end of the phone, "Okay, I understand. I will definitely be at the place you set on time. I will definitely be at the place you set on time. I will definitely be at the place you set on time." As if she was encouraging herself, the persistence and confidence in her tone came from that one sentence.

The reason Jiang Hua went crazy was because she wondered what kind of expression Qi Yanxu would make if he saw someone next to her on Monday. She also wondered if Wu Chengxu would be angry when he found out that she had been making fun of him all day without her knowledge. But being angry would be useless.

So both of them realized it was late and didn't want to waste each other's time. Zhang Xiang's first words were: "Hello, stranger. Good night and go to sleep early."

"Okay, goodnight and go to sleep early." The phone went dead. Both sides started doing what they were supposed to do: those who were supposed to sleep went to sleep, and those who weren't going to sleep did their own thing—attending class, dreaming, and so on. You must remember the little brother in the red shirt.

After Gu Yiming came out, he went to the place Jiang Hua had designated to wait for her. However, to Gu Yiming's surprise, the place Jiang Hua had indicated was the entrance of a hotel.
