The male student pointed at the notice and said, "See, that one..."
"What's the meaning?"
"I heard she was involved in this!"
After saying only a few words, he immediately stopped, then a sympathetic and meaningful look appeared on his face before he turned and walked away. This series of actions scared Qin Huai out of his wits. What did it mean? After a moment of silence, he hurriedly called out to him, "Classmate, where is Maggie Cheung?"
"Where can it be? In the dormitory."
This answer made Qin Huai breathe a sigh of relief. It was really deadly to speak so loudly.
It seems that Maggie Cheung is really in big trouble, to the point where everyone in the school knows about her.
Female dormitories were not under closed management at that time. It seemed that until the 1990s, male and female dormitories in universities were open to entry and exit.
When Maggie Cheung opened the door and saw him, tears kept falling down and she said, "Qin Huai, I..." She looked very haggard. After not seeing him for such a short time, she seemed like a different person.
"What's going on?" Qin Huai felt a sharp pain in his heart.
"I was framed..." Her tears kept falling and she choked and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
The hand holding Qin Huai was shaking constantly.
"Don't say anything. Now that I'm here, leave everything to me. Let's go out first."
"Okay." With her parents sent to labor camps and Yu Zhennan in jail, all of Zhang Keyi's supporters disappeared. She went from being a carefree princess to an ordinary person. This huge gap in status was unbearable for her, who was only 21 years old.
Now that she has encountered such a bad thing again, she feels like she has found support when she sees Qin Huai. She holds his hand and is unwilling to let go.
Qin Huai was tightly grasped by her soft little hand, and felt his heart beating wildly, but he still forced himself to appear calm, patted her hand and said, "Don't worry, with me here, no one can bully you."
Maggie Cheung looked at his face and suddenly felt at ease.
He didn't immediately ask what difficulties she encountered, but took her for a walk on the street.
Being surrounded by strangers and without any strange looks, Zhang Keyi's heart slowly relaxed.
Beijing is the place Qin Huai is most familiar with. Although he later settled in Haicheng, he was a migrant worker in Beijing at the beginning and stayed in Beijing for many years.
Maggie Cheung saw him stop in front of a row of clothing stores and asked curiously:
"You want to buy clothes?"
Qin Huai said, "That's right. When you go out to do business, you have to dress in a business-like manner. City people only care about clothes, not people. If I go to your school dressed like a farmer, no one will pay attention to me. I must buy some clothes before going to your school."
"Oh, okay."
The fashion in Beijing was indeed too advanced. Although it was the 1960s, the clothing designs were bold and fashionable. Many of them were based on the styles of foreign movies. There were even tube tops and one-line skirts. These styles would not feel outdated even after forty years.
He first bought himself a Zhongshan suit and a woolen coat.
After changing into the new clothes, I threw away my original clothes.
These stores may have some influence in the capital, and they have two price tags: one is the price requiring cloth coupons, and the other is negotiable.
You know what, after changing his clothes, Qin Huai suddenly lost all the temperament of a northern Anhui farmer, and instead transformed into a cadre who should not be underestimated. He was obviously not even twenty years old, but after changing his clothes, his age was concealed, and he seemed to be of a fairly high rank.
Maggie Cheung was also stunned by his transformation.
Qin Huai smiled and looked at himself again. The front of the pair of cloth shoes on his feet were kicked to pieces and did not match his current clothes.
When a small boss goes out, what he needs is momentum.
I have been dealing in supplies in northern Anhui County these days, and I have no shortage of cloth coupons and food coupons.
After buying the clothes, he also bought a pair of shiny big leather shoes. That was not all, he went to the department store in Wangfujing and bought two watches. He wore the men's watch himself and asked the waiter to put the women's watch on Maggie Cheung.
Watches are an absolute luxury in this era. Even if you have a ticket, they still cost eighty yuan.
Only then did Maggie Cheung realize that it was bought for her. She hurriedly declined as if she had been pricked by a needle, saying, "It's too expensive. I can't have it."
Qin Huai said, "Wear it. This is a prop you will need next. It is not a gift." He could not help but refuse.
Maggie Cheung had no choice but to put it on in confusion.
Qin Huai found a store he was familiar with and bought her a green military uniform and a pair of lambskin shoes. Until the 1980s, boys and girls could have a set of military uniforms that fit them well, and the style would never go out of style.
Maggie Cheung comes from a wealthy family and has never lacked for such things. She subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Qin Huai said: "This is the first gift I give you. You look really good in it."
You said the watch was a prop and the clothes were a gift, and you were allowed to say whatever you wanted. Although I thought so in my heart, Maggie Cheung still felt sweet in her heart. She had suffered so much grievance in the past few days, and it seemed that at this moment, she was finally released.
This is the difference between people from wealthy families and ordinary families. Ordinary people have a subconscious feeling that they do not deserve happiness and dare not accept the kindness of others. Girls like Maggie Cheung have had superior conditions since childhood and are the apple of her eye, so they do not have an inferiority complex.
In a short period of time, Qin Huai spent more than 400 yuan, and the two watches cost 160 yuan, and he had to have tickets. Maggie Cheung saw it clearly from the side.
Qin Huai said, "As long as it can help you solve your problem, I will spend it no matter how much it costs."
Tears welled up in Maggie Cheung's eyes. It had been a long time since she felt such care.
After they were dressed, Qin Huai took her to the Jingcheng Restaurant. After they ordered the dishes, Qin Huai asked, "Now tell me, what's going on?"
Zhang Keyi bit her lip and said, "Qin Huai, I'm innocent. Do you believe it?"
Qin Huai said: "Of course, when I received your telegram, I knew you were wronged."
Perhaps because of the long-term depression, Maggie Cheung burst into tears after hearing this.
The waitress at the restaurant said, "Girl, this guy has a greasy face and looks like a bad guy. Have you been bullied by him? Tell me and I will send everyone to help."
Maggie Cheung wiped away her tears embarrassedly and said, "Auntie, you misunderstood, he is...he is..." The girl was too embarrassed to say the following words.
"I'm her boyfriend, auntie, I didn't bully her." Qin Huai said seriously.
The sense of justice among Beijing aunties can be traced back to before the liberation, not to mention that there is a banner on the wall of the restaurant that says "No beating or scolding of customers". Just for this reason, Qinhuai cannot afford to offend this huge group that has been active in Beijing for decades.
The aunt looked at Maggie Cheung suspiciously. Maggie Cheung was shy about what Qin Huai said, but looking at the aunt who was staring at her hungrily, she could only nod.
"Hmph, girl, if you let him control you, just blink. He can't do anything with me here." The aunt still couldn't stand Qin Huai's look. The working people of this era were proud of their hard work and simplicity. The young man in front of her was dressed in fancy clothes and didn't look kind at all.
Maggie Cheung kept saying, "No, really not, Auntie, he is really my partner."
As he spoke, he saw Qin Huai's half-smile on his face, and hurriedly lowered his head to eat.
The two finished their meal under the old lady's gaze of looking at a thief. Qin Huai also figured out Zhang Keyi's problem. It was simply an unexpected disaster.
