Chapter 29 Secretly Calculating



"Nothing." Su Qingyun thought about it for a long time and still didn't want to trouble her father. Not only was it expensive, it was also difficult to get.

She thought about her savings, which were no more than twenty yuan at most, and she had saved them bit by bit over the years. More than one hundred yuan was an astronomical figure for her.

Is there any way to get a bicycle cheaply without industrial coupons? Su Qingyun began to think seriously about this question.

The next day, Xia Qiu came to find Su Qingyun to go to school together. She casually asked, "Qiuqiu, can you ride a bike?"

"How can I ride a bicycle?" Xia Qiu thought she was asking a stupid question. "There are only two or three families in our village who have bicycles, and the other one belongs to the team."

"Apart from these and the ones in town, I've only seen bicycles at my aunt's house. But that bicycle was a used one my uncle bought from someone else. Everything on it made noises except the bell. Even that junky bike cost sixty or seventy yuan."

Xia Qiu was still chattering, but Su Qingyun's eyes lit up. Yes, why didn't she think of a used car? It was cheap, and maybe it didn't require industrial coupons, or there was a more cost-effective option. There were a lot of treasures in scrap yards these days, and many treasures in later generations were picked up from scrap yards.

Su Qingyun thought to herself that she could go to the scrapyard to see if there were any broken cars or rotten cars. As long as the frame was there, she could find parts and repair it without much expense.

She kept thinking about this matter, so much so that she couldn't help but take out her notebook during class and started writing and drawing.

Ji Yue, who was reading the textbook with her, didn't care at first, but when he saw the rough outline of something drawn on Su Qingyun's notebook, he frowned. Is this... a bicycle?

What was written on the notebook was not just some random scribbles as he thought, but a complete diagram of the bicycle structure. The front, the body, every axle, and every part were all clearly drawn. Seeing Su Qingyun's serious look, Ji Yue almost wanted to draw the pattern of the bicycle tire.

Su Qingyun can also draw? Ji Yue was a little confused. In his mind, Su Qingyun was just like other girls who showed interest in him. If there was any difference, it was probably that Su Qingyun was thicker-skinned and more difficult to deal with than other girls, which made him dislike her more. After she dropped out of school, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But when Su Qingyun came back at the beginning of this school year, he seemed like a different person. His temperament became calmer, not so annoying and noisy anymore, and also... a little bit smarter.

These changes are a bit too strange.

Ji Yue twirled his pen, unable to figure out what was going on, so he gave up thinking about it.

At noon, Xia Qiu kept urging Su Qingyun, "Hurry up, there's no room in the cafeteria."

"Right away, right away!" Su Qingyun put down his pen after finishing the last stroke and looked at the bicycle structure drawing that he had revised and improved with satisfaction. This is right.

"Let's go, let's go!" Xia Qiu pulled her and ran towards the cafeteria.

By the time the two of them finished queuing up for their meals, the seats in the cafeteria were already full. Su Qingyun looked at the only empty seat, pursed his lips, and was about to walk over.

"Hey! What are you doing?" Xia Qiu pulled her with one hand, "You don't want to sit with Ji Yue, do you?"

"Do we have a choice?"

"I won't go. I'd rather eat standing up." Xia Qiu flatly refused. Ji Yue's cold eyes gave her a look that made her feel like she was standing in the snow in the coldest days of winter, freezing to death.

"It's okay. You see, he and I are deskmates. I shouldn't be so rude as to give him such a small amount of face, right?" Su Qingyun pulled Xia Qiu over.

After spending a day and a half together, Su Qingyun also realized something. Although Ji Yue looked a little cold, as long as you didn't disturb him, he would ignore you no matter what you did.

Su Qingyun pulled Xia Qiu in front of Ji Yue and said with a smile: "Classmate Ji Yue, can we sit here?"

Ji Yue glanced at Su Qingyun and said nothing.

Su Qingyun took it as his consent and sat down on her own. Seeing her sit down, Xia Qiu had no choice but to sit down as well.

"Eat quickly." Seeing Xia Qiu stunned, Su Qingyun urged her. She had already started eating as if nothing had happened. To be fair, the food in the school cafeteria tasted pretty good.

Seeing that Ji Yue really had no intention of paying attention to them, Xia Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and started eating her meal in big mouthfuls. She wanted to leave quickly.

"Qiuqiu, are you in a hurry to go home after school? We can go for a walk." Su Qingyun wanted to go to the scrap yard to take a look.

"Okay, okay." Xia Qiu stuffed food into his mouth and agreed casually.
