The two went to the underground parking lot.
Han Chen suddenly asked, "Has Yu Yizhou not contacted you recently?"
"No, but I met him at noon today when I was having lunch with my classmates."
Han Chen frowned: "Did he provoke you again?"
Zhou Mo: "Provoke me? He's clearly here to get scolded."
Han Chen: "Stay away from him if you see him next time."
"Oh," Zhou Mo felt that Han Chen's tone contained a lecture.
"I'm serious," Han Chen emphasized.
"I mean 'oh' seriously."
Han Chen had no choice but to say, "Get in the car."
Zhou Mo opened the car door and got on the passenger seat.
The car passed Century Jiayuan and drove all the way.
Zhou Mo realized it later: "Not going back to your home?"
Han Chen frowned, "You want to go to my house?"
Zhou Mo blushed, "Go home and get the card."
Han Chen: "I brought it with me. Let's go directly to 'Zhu Lu Zhong Yuan'."
Zhou Mo muttered softly, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"Fighting for the Central Plains."
As soon as Han Chen and Zhou Mo arrived at the door, the doorman came forward and parked the car for them.
The waiter also greeted him warmly, "Mr. Han, the private room upstairs is ready."
"Yeah," Han Chen responded.
The waiter led the way, and Zhou Mo followed behind Han Chen with a frown on his face.
She asked, "Didn't you say you were here to check the accounts?"
Han Chen: "Check it out after you're full, there's no time to waste."
Zhou Mo: “…”
I always feel like something is wrong.
The waiter took the two to a private room upstairs. Coincidentally, it was the same private room where Zhou Mo had met Liang Dongyan.
Zhou Mo couldn't understand what Han Chen was up to. "Why do you eat here? It's expensive and not worth it."
Han Chen: "How about going home and doing it?"
Zhou Mo: "Forget it then."
She was not in the mood and did not want to go to Han Chen's house.
Han Chen pushed the menu to Zhou Mo: "Choose what you want to eat."
Zhou Mo smiled faintly, with some anticipation, "Are you treating me?"
"You please," Han Chen said deliberately, picked up the copper kettle next to him, and poured a glass of water for Zhou Mo and himself.
Zhou Mo's smile disappeared instantly, and he looked worried. "I don't have money to treat you to a meal."
She closed the menu dejectedly and pushed it to Han Chen.
"Why are you out of money again?" Han Chen asked.
Zhou Mo was wondering whether he should tell Han Chen that he gave Liu Kai two thousand yuan.
While he was still hesitating and before he could say anything, Han Chen seemed to have an insight into something.
He asked in a cold voice: "Did you lend money to Liu Kai?"
Zhou Mo didn't expect that his guess was so accurate, and for a moment, he felt inexplicably guilty.
Han Chen has always been bothered by her lending money to Liu Kai.
Zhou Mo said nothing and lowered his head silently.
She lowered her head, said nothing, and kept stirring her index fingers in front of her body, obviously in an awkward state of showing weakness.
"How much did you borrow?" Han Chen couldn't bear to blame him for some reason.
"two thousand."
Han Chen's frown relaxed slightly. "It's okay, not much. I'll give you more."
Zhou Mo's face was filled with shock.
He replenished her?
What's the meaning?
Han Chen took out his cell phone and operated it for a while, and Zhou Mo's phone soon received a vibration message.
She opened her phone and saw a WeChat notification that Han Chen had transferred 2,000 yuan to her.
"What do you mean?" Zhou Mo asked.
Han Chen said with a smile: "Didn't you say you didn't have money to treat me to a meal? Now you have money, don't you?"
Zhou Mo: “…”
Zhou Mo was puzzled by the mysterious operation.
Turning around, Zhou Mo asked, "Why should I treat you to a meal?"
After thinking about it, I was surprised again, "No, why do you want to give me money?"
"Why are there so many?" Han Chen didn't answer. He took the menu, called the waiter, and ordered a few dishes.
Before closing the menu, he asked again, "Would you like some duck tongue?"
"No," Zhou Mo felt that the dishes Han Chen had ordered were enough for them.
Han Chen handed the menu to the waiter, "Duck tongue, take away."
Zhou Mo's heart trembled cautiously.
After the waiter left, Zhou Mo asked Han Chen, "You haven't told me yet, why are you giving me money?"
Han Chen didn't want to answer, "Why are there so many questions?"
Zhou Mo said solemnly, "I think it's better for us not to have too much financial dealings. Being in debt would make me feel guilty."
"You don't owe me anything, just think of it as me lending it to Liu Kai."
Zhou Mo felt something was wrong. "But I took your money, and Liu Kai is my junior. He has nothing to do with you. If you help him... aren't you helping me?"
Han Chen was a little annoyed by Zhou Mo. She was too clear-cut.
"Pay me back when you have money next month." Han Chen could only resort to a temporary solution.
Zhou Mo felt better now. "Then I'll take it and return it to you next month."
"Well, no rush." Han Chen seemed calm and unconcerned, his eyes always on Zhou Mo. He waited until she clicked "collect payment" before looking away.
"Thank you," Zhou Mo said.
"Yeah," Han Chen responded calmly, but there were other waves in his heart.
No matter what the reason is, as long as Zhou Mo is willing to accept it, it's fine.
"In the future, if you run out of money, you can tell me."
Zhou Mo looked puzzled: "Huh?"
Han Chen looked very unnatural. "It's difficult to get a PhD. I understand."
Zhou Mo nodded without thinking, "Yeah, thank you."
She probably understood what Han Chen meant. It was really difficult for a person in her thirties to study for a doctorate without any income.
An ordinary clerk in a company earns 3,000 yuan a month, but studying for a doctorate... you don’t get a penny at all, and you even have to pay money out of your own pocket.
Zhou Mo attributed this to Han Chen's kindness and consideration as a former doctoral student.
"But... you're helping me like this... it's pretty tough on you, right?" Zhou Mo didn't forget that Han Chen's expenses had been quite high recently. "You bought a house in Dongjiang and have to pay back the mortgage every month. You also recently renovated Yuanshangju..."
Han Chen also told her not to worry about Liu Kai's affairs, as he would be fully responsible and would most likely have to pay out a sum of money.
"Come to think of it, you should be in a state of not making ends meet right now," Zhou Mo had no intention of exposing Han Chen's shortcomings, but just didn't want Han Chen to force himself too much.
Han Chen didn't expect Zhou Mo to think so much, and judging his current state, he was dazed for a moment and said, "It's okay, I get a salary every month."
"Salaries are paid once a month, and a little bit of money can't solve a major drought." Zhou Mo felt that he was meddling too much. "You should also pay more attention and don't push yourself too hard."
"Yeah." Han Chen's lips curled up slightly.
Tonight, Zhou Mo inexplicably touched the softest part of Han Chen's heart and was unspeakably gentle.
"Zhou Mo."
"Um?"
Zhou Mo looked up at him, not understanding why he called her.
"us……"
Bang bang bang.
The waiters came in one after another carrying the dishes. There were not many dishes, so they were served quickly.
"Sir, Madam, please enjoy your meal."
Just as the waiter was about to leave, Zhou Mo suddenly stopped the foreman and said, "Wait a minute, could you help us check how much we spent on our last purchase? It would be best if you could make a bill for me."
The foreman politely asked, "Excuse me, are you a member?"
"Yes," Zhou Mo looked at Han Chen.
Han Chen took out his wallet, pulled out his membership card and handed it to the waiter.
The waiter took it with both hands, "Okay, sir, we'll bring you the bill and card in a moment."
Zhou Mo smiled and said, "Thank you."
