She said calmly, "I plan to graduate in a month. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. See how many opportunities I've missed for you all these years."
The Su family: "..."
Although classes don't start until Monday, there's an opening ceremony over the weekend. It's a chance for the students to get to know each other. After work, Su Yu greeted the Su brothers, Su Dazhi and Su Dazhi.
"Sis, let me go. I'll go with you," Su Zhi said. She hadn't forgotten her sister; whoever went to school with her would eat out.
Su Yu appreciated Su Zhi's positive attitude, nodded, and then said to Su Dazhi, "Dazhi, you should go back and get some rest. You must be tired from work. By the way, if Liu Mei bullies you, wait for me to come back and talk to her."
Su Dazhi nodded repeatedly. He wasn't so afraid of Liu Mei anymore. In front of his sister, Liu Mei was nothing. If Liu Mei treated him the same as before, he could simply go and get the paperwork done with her.
After Su Dazhi left, Su Zhi smiled, his eyes crinkling.
"Sis, what should we eat?"
"What should we eat? The cafeteria!" The last time I ate at the cafeteria, it was quite nice. The problem is that state-run restaurants are too expensive these days.
She won't get paid for another week. She has a very important use for this money, so she can't afford to spend it recklessly.
Su Zhi was a little disappointed when he heard that he would be eating in the cafeteria, but he felt better thinking that at least he could have a change of pace.
"Su Yu—"
The siblings were about to go to the cafeteria for lunch when they heard a sound coming from the main entrance.
Su Yu turned around and saw a man in khaki overalls standing at the door looking in her direction. When Su Yu looked over, he deliberately put one hand in his pocket.
“Sister, it’s Brother Guozhi,” Su Zhi said.
Su Yu touched her head. She had almost forgotten about this person. How did he suddenly appear out of nowhere?
This is really...
"Let's go, we've got our dinner sorted for tonight."
Su Yu waved and walked towards the door.
Su Zhi was not pleased. "Sis, are you planning to take Guozhi out for dinner?"
"..." Even Su Zhi knew that the original owner had spent a lot of money on this clod of earth. If he didn't get his money's worth today, he would feel like he was missing out. Although it wasn't his own loss, the thought still stung.
"Comrade Wu Guozhi, what brings you here?" Su Yu looked at Wu Guozhi with a slightly shy expression.
Wu Guozhi is also a 27-year-old Australian. Life and work have worn him down, and he has long lost his youthful vigor. With his center-parted hair, thin face, and slender figure, he looks below average overall.
How confident is this person to want to have a backup plan... oh wait, I mean, to be supported by a backup plan.
Seeing Su Yu's expression, Wu Guozhi felt relieved. He hadn't visited Su Yu for over half a month, worried that she might have been stolen away.
They were both reluctant to give it up, but at least it was a backup plan. If things didn't go well on their own side, it wouldn't be impossible to marry Su Yu when they really couldn't hold on any longer.
At least she's not too bad-looking and has a job. As for her younger siblings, it doesn't matter; once they marry into his family, Su Yu will definitely hand over her salary to him. A woman without money can't cause any trouble.
"Su Yu, I've been so busy with work these past few days that I haven't had time to see you. I thought I'd come and check on you today. By the way, have you eaten yet? Let's go eat together."
"Okay, whatever you say, where should we eat?" Su Yu asked obediently.
Wu Guozhi said with a smile, "Let's go to the newly opened restaurant around here. I haven't had a decent meal in ages. I've been so tired from work lately..."
Su Yu nodded, "Then we should go have a good meal!" Then she turned to Su Zhi and said, "Zhi, let's go to a restaurant."
Su Zhi nodded reluctantly. Although he really wanted to eat at a restaurant, Wu Guozhi was there too. His sister was paying for everything, and if Wu Guozhi didn't go, he could eat a few more bites.
My sister is too good to Wu Guozhi.
Wu Guozhi glanced at Su Zhi, "Zhi's going too?"
Su Yu asked in surprise, "What's wrong? Is it not allowed?"
“…Okay, no problem.” Wu Guozhi was a little unhappy. If it were just him and Su Yu going together, he could eat whatever they ordered, and take the leftovers home for his mother and sister. But with Su Zhi, there wouldn’t be any leftovers.
There are many restaurants in the provincial capital; there's one near the textile factory.
Although workers' wages weren't high at that time, many were still willing to spend money on food. Especially since the beginning of this year, food supplies have become tight, and many people couldn't buy food even with money in hand. Therefore, many were willing to pay high prices to eat at restaurants. At least they could eat a full meal once or twice a month.
When we arrived at the state-run restaurant, it was already full of people.
Su Yu tugged at Wu Guozhi's clothes, "Comrade Wu Guozhi, hurry up, there won't be any supplies later."
Upon reaching the window, Su Yu called out, "Comrade, do you have noodles?"
The waiter at the window said, "The week's over, what a load of noodles! We have rice, want some?"
"Eat!" Su Yu raised her head high. "Is there any more meat? If there is, then eat!"
Wu Guozhi curled the corners of his mouth slightly. Su Yu might not be good in other ways, but she was quite considerate.
"Would you like some shredded pork soup with cherry blossoms?" the chubby waitress asked with a haughty air.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Su Yu exclaimed excitedly. "Three bowls of rice, and one bowl of shredded meat soup for each of us."
The waitress said, "Six ounces of grain coupons, three ounces of meat coupons, rice is six cents a bowl, and shredded meat soup is three mao. That's one yuan and eight cents in total."
Su Yu turned around and grabbed Wu Guozhi, "Guozhi, quickly get the money and tickets."
"Huh?" Wu Guozhi was taken aback.
Su Zhi also slightly opened his mouth.
Su Yu frowned and said, "What's wrong? Didn't you just come to have dinner with me and Zhi? You're not going to back out, are you? I'm already a lesbian, don't go back on your word. Wu Guozhi, you're a worker at the provincial machinery factory. People will laugh at you if they find out." She deliberately emphasized the words "provincial machinery factory," revealing Wu Guozhi's background.
