"Of course, you can come and get it next time you have time." The dean tidied up the files he had just found and put them back in their original place.
Qiao Zhen: [Xiao Lingzi, print out this picture.]
Xiao Ling: [Does it need to be restored?]
Qiao Zhen: [No need.]
Xiao Ling: [Okay.]
Half a minute later.
Xiao Ling: [It's already in your bag.]
Qiao Zhen: [Okay, blocked.]
Xiao Ling: [?]
Another bright exclamation mark.
Qiao Zhen placed the original owner's file on the table, then walked over and took the dean's arm. She said in a coquettish tone, "Dean, could you please not tell anyone that I asked you to look at the receipts and files today?"
The dean frowned in surprise. "Zhenzhen, what exactly happened?"
Qiao Zhen was silent for a moment. The director was kind-hearted and treated the original owner very well. Although the original owner was often bullied in the orphanage, the director always comforted her. "Director, the name on those receipts is Zhuo Qing, but the amount of money for each transaction is exactly the amount I asked my agent to donate. But the orphanage doesn't have any receipts for my donations."
She took out all the transfer receipts from her crossbody bag. "Hey, Dean, look. This is the passbook where I transferred money to my agent. The third day after each transfer is the date Zhuo Qing makes the donation."
The director compared Qiao Zhen's bankbook with the donation receipts for the orphanage, and her expression changed slightly. "Indeed, this is too much of a coincidence. But what does your search for the jade pendant have to do with this matter?"
Qiao Zhen shook her head and said solemnly, "Dean Mama, I will tell you about the jade pendant later, but please keep today's events a secret. It concerns my background and is very important. Don't tell anyone, not even Zhuo Qing or Du Feng."
The dean hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay."
Qiao Zhen then took out her savings book from her crossbody bag and handed it to the dean. "This is what I recently saved. There's 200,000 yuan in it. You can use it to buy some clothes and books for the children."
The headmaster didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the money directly. "Then I thank you on behalf of the children in the yard."
Qiao Zhen spoke with the dean again, repeatedly instructing him not to tell Zhuo Qing and Du Feng about what happened today. Only after the dean nodded repeatedly did she leave with peace of mind.
She did this partly out of self-interest.
If the dean didn't tell Zhuo Qing about what happened today, then everyone would be happy; but if the dean did tell Zhuo Qing, then let Zhuo Qing be filled with anxiety.
Qiao Zhen repeatedly mentioned Du Feng in order to divert the dean's attention, so that Zhuo Qing would not stand out too much, after all, the dean is also an experienced person.
Qiao Zhen is currently without resources, so she spends her days idly hanging around Du Feng's film crew watching them film, a situation commonly referred to as "spectator behavior".
Half a month later, the original owner's agent came to talk to Qiao Zhen about terminating the contract. Qiao Zhen agreed very readily, ran into Diyu Company to pack her things, and then left without looking back.
That day, Qiao Zhen was enjoying the air conditioning and eating potato chips when Du Feng simply turned off her TV.
What are you doing?
Du Feng said with great distress, "Qiao Zhenzhen, you can't let yourself fall into depravity!"
Qiao Zhen looked at Du Feng with a puzzled expression, "Huh? Where have I fallen from grace?"
Du Feng picked up the potato chips from Qiao Zhen's arms and clicked his tongue, saying, "Look at this! These aren't potato chips, they're obesity!" He then picked up the empty Coke can on the coffee table, "These aren't Coke, they're obesity and pimples! They're ugly! Fat and ugly, isn't that depravity?"
Qiao Zhen gave Du Feng a thumbs up. "When it comes to talking nonsense, I only admire you. But you've lived for almost thirty years, why haven't you become a wise person yet?" She talked nonsense with a straight face. "Look, eating a bag of potato chips makes you fat, drinking a can of cola makes you ugly. Since you're already fat and ugly, why suppress your desires?"
Du Feng gave Qiao Zhen a thumbs up, then pointed at her with his thumb trembling a few times, saying, "A wise person."
Qiao Zhen shamelessly accepted Du Feng's praise. "You flatter me, you flatter me."
Du Feng snatched the potato chips from Qiao Zhen's arms and leaned against the sofa as if he had no bones. "Sigh, wanna go have some fun at Bisha Club tonight?"
Does it include dinner?
He kicked the soft pillow into Qiao Zhen's arms.
"Bag!"
Qiao Zhen checked the time; it was already 7:30. She jumped up and said, "Let's go."
She jogged into the bathroom to put on makeup.
Du Feng munched on potato chips for a while before lazily getting up and going back to change his clothes.
The neon lights on the road were very soft, and the rows of car lights were dazzling to Qiao Zhen. By the time Du Feng drove to the Bisha Club, Qiao Zhen was already feeling drowsy.
Du Feng showed no mercy and shook Qiao Zhen awake, exclaiming, "We're here!"
Qiao Zhen yawned listlessly, covered her cheeks with her hands, and then pushed open the car door and got out.
Du Feng grabbed Qiao Zhen by the back of her neck and dragged her inside, but kept his pace at a speed that Qiao Zhen could keep up with. "Hurry up, go to the bathroom and wash your face. We'll meet in room 016 on the seventh floor. I'm going to the front desk to take care of something."
Qiao Zhen sighed dejectedly, "Sigh—he really is a stepfather. He said he was taking me out to have fun, but it turned out he was just a side trip while he was running errands. I feel so cold-hearted!"
Du Feng chuckled, then tossed Qiao Zhen into the elevator. He left on the first floor, while Qiao Zhen went straight to the seventh floor. She went to the restroom to wash her face and clear her head before heading to the private room to wait for Du Feng.
But she was getting a little bored while waiting, so she took out her phone and started playing King of Glory. Her ID was still Wanzhixiangniao, and she already had more than ten max-level heroes.
