Zhou Sui never expected that the person who contacted her would be Chen Zongyue.
Chen Zongyue had wanted to visit Zhou Sui for a long time, but he hadn't been able to find the time.
He never imagined that Zhou Sui's family had become so wealthy. First, they opened a shop in the town, and then they opened one in the city. Both shops were owned by Zhou Sui. How much money must that have cost?
He visited Zhouji Snack Shop twice, and both times it was packed with people, so it must be quite profitable.
This made Chen Zongyue even more certain of his idea: he wanted to reconcile with Zhou Sui.
Upon seeing that it was Chen Zongyue, Zhou Sui turned around and left without thinking. "Sui Sui?" Chen Zongyue was still there pretending to straighten his sleeves. When he caught sight of Zhou Sui leaving, he hurriedly followed her.
"Sui Sui, congratulations! You're really capable of opening two stores." Chen Zongyue said, handing over a bag. Zhou Sui glanced at it; it contained four or five apples, but she didn't reach out to take it, leaving Chen Zongyue's hand hanging in mid-air.
“We’ve known each other for so long, why didn’t you tell me about this? Otherwise, I would have definitely come and support you when the store opened.”
“I’m working in the city now, and many of my colleagues are from the city. Next time I’ll bring them to support your business.”
Zhou Sui said coldly, "No need." Her shop doesn't need those few people to patronize the business.
The way Chen Zongyue spoke in such a condescending manner was truly disgusting.
After saying that, Zhou Sui turned and went into the snack shop. Her attitude was the same as before, and there was no change at all.
Chen Zongyue caught up with her, "Sui Sui, are you still angry about what happened before?" He was referring to the argument they had in the village.
"I did say something wrong back then, but I still got a beating, so don't take it to heart. Let's call it even."
They really think this is just children playing house, where you hit me and I hit you back and that's it.
"How about this, when are you free? I'll treat you to a meal as an apology, okay?" Chen Zongyue felt he had already lowered his stance enough.
Now that the Zhou family is wealthy, if he can reconcile with Zhou Sui, he can surely get some of that money.
Although he works in the city now, his salary is very low. It's just a facade. Sometimes he has to ask his family for money when he doesn't have enough.
Zhou Sui had already exhausted all her refusal words, so she turned directly to Zhou Meimei and said, "Find two people to take him out."
Zhou Meimei had met Chen Zongyue before and knew that he was shamelessly pestering Zhou Sui, so she immediately went to the kitchen and called two people over.
They were all burly and strong, but Chen Zongyue looked like a little chick, with his feet dangling in the air.
"Zhou Sui, Zhou Sui, you!" Chen Zongyue was incredulous; he had actually been treated like this.
It wasn't until he was outside and his feet touched the ground that he felt his breath catch up. Just as he was about to go in and confront Zhou Sui, someone called out to him.
"Zong Yue?" Xiao Min was having lunch with her classmates when she noticed a familiar figure at the restaurant entrance. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was someone she knew.
"What are you doing here? Didn't you say you were busy working overtime lately?"
In fact, during this period, Xiaomin took the initiative to call Chen Zongyue several times, but he declined each time, saying he was busy, and he really was busy.
But just yesterday the two were still on the phone, and Xiaomin asked him to go out for dinner, but Chen Zongyue refused with the same excuse.
Who would have thought that the two would run into each other again? Chen Zongyue only panicked for a few seconds before he immediately came up with a solution.
He flashed his signature smile, "Looks like I made the right bet today."
"Huh?" Xiaomin looked at him in confusion, not knowing what he was talking about.
"You've called me so many times, even if I'm busy, I have to make time to have dinner with you."
"I worked overtime until midnight last night, and I was busy for a while today, so I finally had time to come here and wait for you. I didn't expect that I guessed right, you really would come here to eat."
Xiaomin was first touched and then surprised, "You can eat anytime, why do you have to work overtime until midnight just to eat? It's bad for your health."
"Once or twice is fine."
"By the way, I don't know what kind of fruit you like to eat. I saw some apples for sale at the intersection and picked out a few at random."
Chen Zongyue reached out his hand again to give away the bag of apples that hadn't been given away. Xiaomin accepted it with a grateful look on her face. "Apples are my favorite food. Thank you."
"I was originally going to eat at Qianmen, but luckily my classmate suggested we eat at Zhouji, otherwise you would probably have been waiting here for nothing."
"Why didn't you call me before you came? What if you couldn't wait?"
Faced with Xiaomin's question, Chen Zongyue had already prepared a reasonable answer: "If I can't wait for you here, I'll wait downstairs in your dormitory. I believe I'll eventually see you."
As he said this, he looked at Xiaomin with deep affection. Xiaomin was so shy that she didn't dare to meet his gaze and said shyly, "What do you mean by waiting? I'm just at school anyway."
"By the way, let's go to Zhou's Restaurant for dinner. Didn't you say it was delicious last time?"
Chen Zongyue had just been brought out, so how could he dare to go back in? Besides, he was afraid that Zhou Sui would see him with Xiao Min.
"We ate at Zhouji last time, let's try something different this time."
His request was reasonable, and Xiaomin nodded in agreement, "Then let's go to the front gate. Apart from Zhouji, the other restaurants near the back gate aren't very good."
This was exactly what Chen Zongyue wanted; he couldn't be more eager to get away from Zhou Ji.
