(183)
Lin Tingfeng's heart, which had been soaring, was like a small pebble, first thrown into the air, rising rapidly, and then falling in a parabolic arc.
His mood gradually shifted from joy to melancholy.
I felt a slight sense of frustration.
The bar manager asked expectantly, "She must have come looking for you, Mr. Lin. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Any woman in the world with even a guinea fowl's brain would come looking for you."
Lin Tingfeng slowly said, "No." It was a bit of a blow to his pride to say it, but if he lied, there would be no future for him and her. If he told the truth that she hadn't come to see him, perhaps the bar manager could help him out.
"Huh?" The bar manager was even more surprised than him, repeatedly saying, "Impossible, impossible!" Although he couldn't see Lin Tingfeng's face, and the two were separated by an extremely large distance, the bar manager could still feel Lin Tingfeng's low pressure through the phone. He panicked a little, afraid that his good intentions had offended President Lin. He hurriedly comforted Lin Tingfeng, saying, "She will definitely come to find you! I think she might be busy today, maybe tomorrow, maybe the next second, she might call you. By the way, I won't bother you anymore. Maybe I've talked to you too much, the phone has been busy, she can't get through. Goodbye, President Lin!"
The bar manager hurriedly hung up the phone. After hanging up, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and patted his chest. Had this girl gone mad? She didn't even go to Mr. Lin to get her money back? He had originally wanted to call Mr. Lin and flatter him, hoping that Mr. Lin would be happy and introduce more business to his bar. Well, now it was like he had tried to flatter him but ended up hurting him.
This is terrible.
That brat actually dared not pay back the money? Are there really people this stupid and audacious in this world? Having offended President Lin, how can she possibly survive?
The bar manager sighed heavily, thinking that there could be such a hopelessly stupid girl in the world!
Ye Wenyu failed to return the money from the bar because she knew that in this life, she would have a relationship with Lin Tingfeng if she wasn't careful, so she wasn't in a particularly good mood.
These days, her mood is like the endless drizzle of the plum rain season.
Now that she has money, she's constantly thinking about paying off all her debts. She can't pay back the bar money, so—
One evening, she was scrolling through her phone, looking at the rich guy she had added last winter. She had taken a 200 yuan red envelope from him and was still returning it to him.
It always feels uneasy to owe someone money for no reason, especially since I've already decided not to repay Lin Tingfeng. Although I keep saying that I don't care and don't owe him anything, it still feels like a heavy stone is pressing on my heart.
No matter the reason, it is wrong not to repay debts.
This couldn't go on like this, so Ye Wenyu thought for a moment and mustered up her courage to send the other party a private message: "I took your 200 yuan red envelope and wanted to return it, but you kept refusing to accept it. So, could I treat you to a meal?"
In any case, the money has to be returned.
In this way, the guilt in my heart won't feel like a heavy weight pressing down on my heart.
At that time, Lin Tingfeng was still feeling down because she hadn't taken the initiative to ask him for his student ID, and he couldn't get over it for several days. So when he received Ye Wenyu's private message, he was suddenly moved, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but smile.
He thought to himself, "It's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to me without any effort." He had originally thought that their first formal meeting would be when she came to ask for his student ID, but he never expected that it would be because she had taken two hundred yuan in red envelopes from his group chat and was now trying to repay him by treating him to a meal.
When you think you've reached the end of the road, a new path opens up before you.
He gently moved his finger and typed "okay," but his heart was restless, ripples spreading through his mind. His ears were ringing as if a million bees were flying by, and his breathing became rapid. Although he tried to hold his breath and relax, it was to no avail.
He was both shocked and amused, wondering what was wrong with him that he had lost his composure because of a little girl.
Ye Wenyu didn't expect the other party to reply so quickly. She thought about it for a moment and remembered that the other party was so rich. Yuan Yuan had told her that the big shots in that group were all super rich. So, would he do her the honor of accepting a dinner invitation for two hundred yuan? But no matter how much money she had, she couldn't afford it. She did have the money, but she couldn't bear to spend it. She wanted to spend all her money wisely.
Because she still wanted to buy Cai Wenchuan a Valentine's Day gift. She had received so many gifts from him for her birthday, but she hadn't given him a decent one in return. Love is about equality, not just taking. If Cai Wenchuan's parents found out about her constant taking, it might be very difficult for her to marry into the Cai family in the future.
Therefore, Ye Wenyu mustered up her courage and said, "Could I treat you to a meal at our school? I don't have much money, so the cost will probably be your red envelope money, about two hundred yuan."
Thinking back on how bluntly I had spoken, revealing my poor state, I couldn't help but feel a flush of heat in my cheeks.
She sent the message with a heavy heart, thinking that the rich man would definitely snort and block her after seeing her request! After all, many people in this world try every means to befriend the rich, so there must be many people willing to spend a lot of money to treat this rich man to a meal. There would be a long line of people willing to treat him to a meal, and she was only willing to spend two hundred yuan to treat him to a cafeteria stir-fry?
That's a really wild idea.
Ye Wenyu felt disheartened as she thought about it. She wondered why this person was so strange. Why would he refuse to accept the red envelopes she tried to return, forcing her to return them by treating him to a meal?
Now look what's happened. She revealed that she only wanted to spend two hundred yuan to treat him to a meal. He felt humiliated, and she felt incredibly embarrassed. Both of them ended up unhappy. What's the point?
Just as I was lost in thought, the other person sent me a private message: "Sure, I like eating the school food, it's like reliving my school days."
He actually agreed!
Ye Wenyu couldn't help but smile, feeling a warmth in her heart. She thought that this nouveau riche was quite down-to-earth and approachable. She also thought that if she met this nouveau riche in private, he might misunderstand and think that she had ulterior motives and was interested in him. She had absolutely no such thoughts. Besides, if Cai Wenchuan found out, he would most likely be heartbroken. People with boyfriends should know how to avoid suspicion. Therefore, Ye Wenyu mustered up her courage again and said, "I will definitely be nervous during dinner. Could you ask a friend of mine to accompany me? She is also a girl."
