Are you hungry?
Shen Qianqian looked at him with a puzzled expression, her gaze slowly moving from his handsome face to his abdomen, which was covered by his white shirt.
Then the sound seemed to respond to her gaze. "Gurgle..."
Guan Ciying's fair face flushed bright red instantly. "You're hungry!"
Shen Qianqian was very certain
A slight smile played on her lips, and she looked somewhat smug.
Haha, serves you right for refusing my chocolate.
Are you hungry now?
To be honest, Shen Qianqian really wanted to give him a good dressing down.
Don't think she didn't see it!
This guy is both resistant and skeptical towards her, as if she were some kind of bad person. She's not blind.
This guy is really stupid; he can't even hide his expression. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're handsome.
Guan Ciying hesitated, her face still flushed and hot.
Shen Qianqian ate two mung bean cakes. The faint aroma of the cakes wafted through the small space, attracting not only the attention of the people next to her but also the gazes of passengers in other seats, who all swallowed their saliva and turned to look at her.
Shen Qianqian was just about to put the cake away.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of the longing in the young man's eyes.
She simply refused to accept it, even taking the oil paper from her hand, circling it around in front of the man, and then bringing it back.
With a grin, he asked, "Do you want some?"
Guan Ciying didn't lie, so she nodded.
Shen Qianqian smiled and said, "Actually, it's not that I can't give you some, it just depends on whether you can afford the price. One yuan each, no food coupons required, do you want some?"
6......"He, he doesn't have any food coupons.
Guan Ciying reluctantly looked away from the pancake and shook her head. Never mind.
He should be able to hold out until the capital, in just two and a half days.
Having never experienced hardship in his life, Young Master Guan was now penniless and determined to endure hunger!
Shen Qianqian: "You don't look like someone who's broke, so how come you can't even come up with a single yuan?"
Guan Ciying: "...I was in a hurry when I left, so I forgot to bring it."
Shen Qianqian thought to herself: What kind of pampered young master is this? Doesn't he even know a little bit about common sense?!
She hesitated for a moment, then took out a pancake and handed it over.
"Since you're good-looking, this pancake is on me."
Good, beautiful?
Guan Ciying had never been praised so directly before; his elders usually praised him for being smart.
He was born into a wealthy family, and his parents left when he was five years old. He was raised by his grandfather. In Hong Kong, which is influenced by Western culture, he also learned some of the "old ways": being reserved, humble, and steady.
He was sent to the United States at the age of sixteen. While his classmates traveled around, he frequented the library and then the laboratory.
This almost monotonous lifestyle caused him to lose most of his social skills.
So, what should he say in this situation?
Guan Ciying: "Thank you, you look beautiful too."
With that demeanor and that tone, everything he said seemed utterly sincere. Shen Qianqian hesitated for only a moment.
He took two cakes from the oil paper and placed them in Guan Ciying's hand.
"Eat up, eat up. I'll give you two more pancakes since you're so nice to talk to." Guan Ciying: ...This person is so generous, he probably isn't a bad guy.
Their actions were observed by bystanders, and some of them began to get restless.
Come.
Before Shen Qianqian could put her things away, an old lady with her grandson approached her with a big smile.
"Girl, you look beautiful and kind-hearted. Give my grandson a pancake." Shen Qianqian glanced at her.
"Sure, it's one yuan and fifty cents each, I won't take your food coupons."
Upon hearing this, the old woman immediately widened her eyes.
"What do you mean one yuan and fifty cents each? I just heard you say one yuan each."
Shen Qianqian immediately nodded: "One yuan each is fine, I'll take a loss and sell you one."
The old woman was now caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to speak or remain silent. She was holding her eldest grandson's hand...
Gougou stared at Shen Qianqian's pancake, still thinking of reaching out to take it.
Shen Qianqian quickly dodged and stuffed the pancake into her bag.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? You're trying to rob me before you've even paid!"
The old woman glanced at Shen Qianqian and then at the man beside her, seemingly hesitating about which one to target.
Shen Qianqian anticipated her actions. She raised her hand to block Guan Ciying.
"His is mine too, they're both 1.5 yuan each."
The old woman couldn't stand it, so she cursed and led her grandson away. The child cried and kicked, refusing to leave no matter what she said.
A young man wearing glasses in the next seat launched into a tirade against Shen Qianqian.
"In this new society, we value mutual help and win-win cooperation. As the old saying goes, 'Give me a peach, and I'll give you a plum in return.' If you have so many cakes, you could easily give one to a child. You might lose a cake, but you gain happiness. Why not?"
Shen Qianqian heard the voice. At first, she didn't realize that it was being spoken to.
The more I listened, the more something seemed off.
Is this... meant to educate me?
Shen Qianqian couldn't stand this insult and immediately turned to the man, snarling, "Good heavens! I never expected to have a living saint sitting in our carriage! These few flatbreads were bought for me by my family through hard work and saving, just so I could eat well on the train. Why should I give them to a complete stranger? I only know that sharing this will only bring me pain, not joy!"
"This gentleman who stood up for what was right is not doing a good deed by taking what others have. If you really want to do a good deed, take a dollar, buy this cake for him, and then give it to that boy. I believe you will gain great joy from it!"
"You, you have no shame or morals!"
The man hadn't expected a woman to be so quick-witted.
"Alright, alright, you're exceptionally shameful and morally upright. A great bodhisattva like you should be honored."
"You've got enough flatbread for our carriage—no, for the whole train! When are you buying it?"
......
The man with glasses shut up.
Guan Ciying watched from the sidelines, completely stunned. It seemed this person had actually gone easy on him with their words?
I never imagined this face would be so useful.
For the first time, Guan Ciying felt that being good-looking had its advantages.
The torment only begins at night.
Because you can't lie down to rest in the hard seat area.
Shen Qianqian sat for almost ten hours. Her butt was sore.
By midnight, the once bustling train carriages had quieted down.
Shen Qianqian couldn't sit still in her seat any longer, so she stood up and walked around.
Guan Ciying: "I'm planning to go to the capital, what about you?" Shen Qianqian looked at him: "Me too."
Guan Ciying was a little happy
“In that case, perhaps we can help each other. Once we reach the capital, I will give you this watch.”
Shen Qianqian glanced at the watch he had taken off... a Rolex?!
She said, "This man is definitely not an ordinary person!"
However, Shen Qianqian did not show any particular excitement.
After all, although this thing was expensive, it wasn't like she hadn't seen it before in her previous life.
How will you help each other?
