Chapter 1203: Retire after success
After getting Zheng Ran's approval, Lianyi changed her face again. This time, she disguised herself as a security guard and left openly with the two instructors.
After Lianyi returned to the city, she got off the car in an inconspicuous place, washed off her makeup, restored her original appearance, and walked back to school.
When Lianyi returned to the dormitory, she was surrounded by her roommates, and everyone was asking about her mother's situation.
"Sister Lianyi, is Auntie okay? Is there anything wrong?"
"Why are you back? It's okay for you to stay at home for one night. We have already discussed it. If you can't make it back tomorrow, we will help you apply for leave."
Lianyi put on a smile and explained patiently:
"Thank you for your concern. My mother is fine. She was just hit by a robber and fell to the ground. I accompanied her to the hospital for a check-up. No bones were broken. She just needs to apply some safflower oil when she goes home.
My mother didn’t want to delay my class, so she sent me back, saying that others were making a fuss. If others hadn’t dragged her to the hospital, she would have prepared dinner. ”
Seeing Lianyi's relaxed expression, the four of them knew that her family was fine and it was probably just a false alarm, so they were relieved and the topic then turned to the things they had bought today while shopping.
The dormitory was full of young girls, all of whom were at the age where they loved beauty, so each of them bought a pair of braids and showed them off to Lianyi.
"You have really good taste. They really show off your figure. I am itching to buy one too."
Lianyi praised generously.
"Sister Lianyi, I'll take you there next week. Maybe we can lower the price."
Qian Luoxi immediately suggested.
"Okay, then let's make up for the shopping we missed this week next week."
Lian Yi replied with a smile.
Because Lianyi was going to attend university here, Xing's mother went to the county town to make two new sets of clothes for her, and even gritted her teeth to buy her a pair of small leather shoes. She felt that her daughter was no worse than others and should not dress too poorly.
So judging from her clothes alone, Lianyi's clothes were not the worst in school, they could just be described as ordinary. However, she still chose to follow the crowd and didn't want to be special.
The next day, Lianyi went to class with her roommate. After class, she went to see the class teacher and explained the situation, and the teacher was relieved.
When they went to the cafeteria for lunch at noon, the five of them met Hu Xingbang who came to show his courtesy to them again.
No one said much. The cafeteria is a public place, you can't restrict others from eating there!
"Xing, what a coincidence, I keep running into you these days."
Hu Xingbang took the initiative and spoke out what the five people were really thinking.
Lian Yi just nodded politely and said:
“The dishes cooked by the chef here are delicious, and the buns are also delicious.”
"Really? I haven't had the buns yet. I'm about to go buy some. Do you want me to bring you a few?"
Hu Xingbang immediately followed up and said.
"Thank you. I want to eat rice today. I have already prepared it."
Lianyi smiled and refused.
What a joke! If they had eaten the meal prepared by Hu Xingbang, even if they had no relationship, they would be said to have relationship. In this era, if you don't have a good relationship with someone, you definitely won't treat them to a meal casually.
Hu Xingbang was not discouraged by the rejection. He just sat at the table next to Lianyi and the others, eating and trying to find topics to talk about.
When they returned to the dormitory, the youngest Li Xingyue said to Lianyi with interest:
"Sister Lianyi, I think Hu Xingbang is interested in you."
"I noticed it, too. We've been running into each other in the cafeteria for a week now. I don't believe him if he doesn't have any ideas."
Sun Guoguo immediately nodded in agreement.
Zhao Xinruo and Qian Luoxi looked at each other, then said to Lianyi:
"Sister Lianyi, what do you think? Hu Xingbang's family background is quite strong."
"I don't have any ideas. I'm here to study, not to fall in love. Besides, he has a good background. His family will definitely look down on a poor student like me. We are not a good match. I don't want to embarrass myself."
Lianyi said it very frankly. Some gaps are innate. She was just an ordinary farm girl. Getting into university was a great achievement, but she could not compare with others whose family had accumulated wealth for two or three generations.
The original owner had no choice but to marry Li Xiangjun because she thought it was the best marriage. Lianyi is not her original self, and she is more aware of her situation.
"If Sister Lianyi doesn't have any ideas, try to have as little contact with him as possible."
Zhao Xinruo kindly pointed out.
"I know. So for the next week, I'll trouble you to help me get lunch. I'll go straight back to the dormitory after class and be responsible for getting you some water. This way we can avoid each other for a while. I believe the monitor will understand what I mean."
Ripple said immediately.
"That's fine."
Qian Luoxi was the first to speak and took over the task of serving meals, which was a small matter.
Sure enough, in the following week, Hu Xingbang never met Lianyi again. He could only see Lianyi in class. Because the five of them went in and out together, he really couldn't find a chance to talk to Lianyi alone.
It was another weekend, and Lianyi was notified to go to the mail room to pick up a letter. She was stunned for a moment, because she knew that only people from her village could be admitted to the university, but she did not leave a specific address. Who could have sent the letter?
With doubts, she went to the mail room. After getting the letter, she found a quiet place and tore open the envelope.
A deposit slip fell out, along with some bills and a small note that read "Mission completed, rewards issued."
Lianyi looked at the number on the deposit slip. It was a full one thousand yuan. She was very surprised. She didn't expect the reward to be redeemed so soon. She thought she would have to wait for a while. She could take on more tasks like this.
Tomorrow is a good day off, and she will have a day off. She will also buy two sets of summer clothes for her parents. The weather here is hot and humid, and long sleeves are really hard to wear.
After Lianyi put away the deposit certificate and stood up, she saw Hu Xingbang walking towards her.
Hu Xingbang also saw Lianyi, and the other party was alone, with no other female classmates around her, so he immediately walked over.
Lianyi was a little annoyed. Wasn’t her expression obvious enough?
Perhaps it was because the annoyance in Lianyi's eyes was too obvious that Hu Xingbang stopped in his tracks. After all, for a favored child like him, it was normal to be praised by the people around him. It was the first time for him to be hated by others, and the other party showed it so obviously, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Lianyi saw that the other party had stopped walking, so she turned in another direction and left, not even wanting to pass by him.
Hu Xingbang looked at Lianyi's back with a gloomy expression. He stood there for a while before turning around and leaving.
The next day, Lianyi and Qian Luoxi went together to buy a navy blue plaid braid and summer clothes for their parents. Then they separated.
When Lianyi returned home and gave the summer clothes to the old couple of the Xing family, they both blamed her for spending money indiscriminately, but their actions of being unable to let go of the clothes betrayed their true thoughts.
Lianyi secretly gave the deposit certificate to Old Man Xing, who was also shocked when he saw the number on it.
"Little sister, why is there so much money?"
"This is my bonus. Keep it for emergency use. Don't let my mother find out. It will be hard to explain then."
