Wen Gaohan nodded, "I can't help you with your match. I asked someone to buy it for me, and I also asked some of my old comrades abroad to download some classic textbooks and foreign periodicals. He said that's enough to deal with your match."
Is that enough?
That's enough!
Walkmans are not common in the market nowadays, and there are probably only a few in China. Wen Gaohan must have spent a lot of effort and time to get his hands on one.
It's unlikely he could get it in just a few days; he probably started looking for it around as soon as she began her competition.
"Thanks."
Wen Gaohan stared at her expression and saw a hint of displeasure. But when he saw her smiling face, his heart, which had been in his throat, finally relaxed.
“If you need anything, just tell me,” he said.
This time, Qiao Wanyue didn't say she could do it, but nodded and said, "Okay."
After the two finished their meal, Qiao Wanyue returned to her dormitory.
Yuan Han went crazy when she saw the Walkman.
"Wanyue, where did you buy this? It just came out, how did you get it!" She used to learn foreign languages by watching movies, but there were very few foreign movies, so she learned from television and tape recorders.
Last year, someone mentioned that Walkmans existed overseas, and she dreamed of having one.
Wen Gaohan bought three units.
Qiao Wanyue said, "There are only three units here, which may not be enough to go around."
Ye Yuan: "I don't want to. My broken English isn't good enough for this."
Qu Xiao and Yuan Han stared at her expectantly.
Qiao Wanyue handed them over.
Yuan Han turned around and went to her drawer to get the money. "Wanyue, I don't know how much it costs, but it's definitely not cheap. You'll have to do me a favor, so I'll consider it a favor I owe you. I'll give you the money first."
Qiao Wanyue was stunned for a moment.
She didn't ask Wen Gaohan how much money he paid.
She thought for a moment, "I'll ask you how much it costs tomorrow and then you can give it to me."
She certainly wouldn't give it directly to her roommate.
She didn't know how much it cost, but a Walkman in those days certainly wouldn't be cheap, and it would also require exchanging foreign currency. It was all thanks to Wen Gaohan's favors, so giving it away for free wouldn't win him any goodwill, and might even invite resentment.
"Use this first, Wen... He downloaded foreign languages and some magazines in advance, especially things related to our competition, they're all here. You don't need to get up early to listen to the radio at the foreign language corner these next few days." Qiao Wanyue handed the Walkman to Yuan Han.
She didn't want to get up early!
"Also, don't wake me up early tomorrow!" Qiao Wanyue said fiercely to Yuan Han.
Yuan Han was stunned.
Ye Yuan and Qu Xia exchanged a glance.
Both of them were struggling to suppress their laughter.
Yuan Han: "You always seem happy when you wake up."
Qiao Wanyue patted her shoulder, "Baby, was I happy? I was still half asleep and you dragged me out of bed."
Yuan Han said, "Young man, what are you sleeping for? If you don't work hard now, are you going to work hard when you're old?"
Qiao Wanyue: "Young people should be sleeping. I've already tried my best."
"Honey, get up early tomorrow, okay?" Qiao Wanyue said, patting her shoulder.
Yuan Han snorted coldly.
She looked at Qu Xia and Ye Yuan, hoping to find her allies, but when she turned her head away, Qu Xia and Ye Yuan completely ignored her gaze and turned their heads in unison, pretending to be very busy.
You can't see me.
You can't see me.
Yuan Han: !!!
"Wanyue, do you know anyone in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?"
Qiao Wanyue: "I don't know her."
Qu Xia had been fiddling with it for a while when Qiao Wanyue handed it to her. She put it on and listened. The more she listened, the more familiar it seemed. This wasn't some kind of baked product; it was clearly the original.
