"Hey, not bad, newbie. Bro, you actually know my rules?"
Xia Che raised an eyebrow. He was clearly just a little kid, but in Tang Yanyan's eyes, he unexpectedly gave off a roguish vibe.
Moreover, this kid's eyebrow raising is also quite unique.
Only the left eyebrow was moving, while the right eyebrow remained still, which made Xia Che appear even more carefree and nonchalant, the kind of person Tang Yanyan would never dare to approach under normal circumstances.
How could she possibly hope that such a leader of children would one day become her friend?
But the opportunity really came.
Tang Yanyan nervously swallowed. She was rich, she had plenty of money.
Her family gives her a lot of these things every day.
While money can buy delicious snacks and novel toys, what could be more precious than friendship...?
Tang Yanyan was very happy to agree.
"So it's going to cost money. How much?"
Tang Yanyan asked impatiently.
"A complete set of the new game cartridges costs two hundred, um... two hundred it is, I guarantee it will be absolutely fun."
Although both of them were children, they talked about money, a topic that children rarely discuss, as they had not yet developed a mature understanding of money at their age.
During their conversation, Tang Yanyan clearly saw several children trying to play with Xia Che, but he impatiently waved them away.
Upon seeing this, a hint of envy immediately appeared in Tang Yanyan's eyes.
That was a friendship I could only dream of but never have...
This guy actually refused so easily?
Is he really the king of the kids here?
Do they even understand how precious friendship is...? How awful.
What are game cartridges?
With a hint of envy in her eyes, Tang Yanyan asked, puzzled.
Immediately, a sense of unease welled up inside me.
Oops……
Have I revealed my antisocial traits again?
Judging from Xia Che's appearance, he has obviously played with a lot of things that I've never even heard of before.
In her previous attempts to make friends, Tang Yanyan had tried to join in other people's conversations, but she always lost out because she didn't understand what they were saying and was looked down upon.
"I don't know either. I just heard it's a lot of fun. My family has the equipment. It was a birthday present for my sister, but I've never played it."
Xia Che scratched his head and chuckled, "I really enjoy trying new things, do you too?"
He...has never played it either?
Tang Yanyan was slightly taken aback, her eyes flickered, and her heart was filled with certain emotions she did not understand. She quickly said, "Yes, I've never played it before."
"That would be perfect. Let's go buy game cartridges, you pay."
Xia Che slammed his fist into his palm, finalizing the afternoon's itinerary, "After we finish shopping, let's go straight to my place and hang out together, okay?"
Xia Che has a certain charm; he can easily become friends with strangers in just a few words.
Tang Yanyan didn't know if this counted as a kind of personal charm, but she didn't want people in her new environment to know that she actually couldn't find any friends, so she had to pretend to be calm and composed...
It's like I'm frequently invited like this.
"Okay, let's do it your way. I should definitely pay for it."
Tang Yanyan nodded seriously, calculating in her mind that the cassette tape only cost two hundred yuan, and her family had directly linked a SIM card to her phone so she could use it as she pleased.
Tang Yanyan hasn't learned math yet; she can only count up to a thousand.
But the balance in the card seems to be far beyond that range.
"That should be enough to buy it..."
Tang Yanyan had no concept of money, but she felt that the money in the cards her family gave her seemed endless.
"You're pretty savvy."
Noticing that Tang Yanyan had taken the initiative to pay the bill, Xia Che stepped forward and looked the chubby girl, who would be staying at their house from today onwards, up and down, his eyes seemingly shining.
Tang Yanyan was too shy and worried about giving herself away, so she didn't dare to say anything.
But years later, when Tang Yanyan recalled this scene, she finally understood.
What kind of light is that in your eyes?
They were clearly eyeing a cash cow!
That damn guy...
They're treating themselves like a bank!
The game cartridge purchase went smoothly that day, and the two of them spent the whole afternoon playing games in front of the TV, which brought them much closer together.
Tang Yanyan had never had anyone to play with like this before. While playing the game, she secretly observed Xia Che sitting on the cushion.
Xia Che, this approachable guy, didn't have a single bit of the airs of a young master.
This is so strange...
Tang Yanyan had met many people, and those young men whose family backgrounds couldn't even compare to hers, would hold their noses up to the sky when they refused to play with her.
Arrogant and haughty, looking down on everyone.
Why wouldn't Xia Che do that?
Tang Yanyan became more and more curious as she thought about it. As her attention wandered, she gradually lost control of the game controller in her hands.
As Tang Yanyan's character was killed by a goblin because she didn't have time to use her skills, Xia Che tried to save her, which triggered a chain reaction, and he was ambushed from behind by a headless knight.
【fail! 】
"Oh no! Oh no! I almost passed!"
Staring at the two bloody characters on the screen, Xia Che tugged at his hair, trying to express his dissatisfaction with a strange scream.
"Hey! Newbie, if you keep messing around like this, I'm going to raise your friend fee!"
After Xia Che picked up the controller and tried to rewind without success, he turned to look at Tang Yanyan, who had guiltily looked away. His youthful face was now filled with seriousness.
"Friendship fee? What's that?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Yanyan looked over curiously again.
How come this guy always manages to come up with something new and interesting?
Although she only spent an afternoon with him, she had already learned many novel things that Tang Yanyan had never known before.
What an interesting guy.
"Didn't you know? Here, making friends costs money."
Xia Che gripped the controller, sat cross-legged on the cushion again, rested the other end of the controller on his chin, and suddenly asked, "Let me ask you... did you have fun playing with me today?"
"happy."
Tang Yanyan didn't understand what Xia Che was up to, but after thinking about it, she answered truthfully.
Today was the happiest day she had ever had.
Because finally someone didn't mind that she was fat and was willing to play games with her, even though Tang Yanyan had never played games before and was clumsy at playing, and at first she couldn't even walk properly, Xia Che never scolded her.
"Want to play with me every day from now on?"
Xia Che's eyes gleamed, like those of a cunning fox.
"If you want to, do you need to pay that... friend fee?"
