Wang Peng left the People's Department Store wearing a 300-yuan watch.
On their way back to school, they met Du Lei at the school gate, and the two went into the school together.
Upon arriving at the bike shed, they saw Wang Cheng and Zhang Qianqian chatting outside.
"Hey, Wang Cheng, where did you buy your watch?" Du Lei asked.
"At the People's Department Store." Wang Cheng was a little afraid of Du Lei.
"How much did you spend to buy it?" Du Lei asked again.
"Two hundred." Wang Cheng glanced at Wang Peng and deliberately showed off his watch.
I felt a surge of comfort.
Since Wang Peng had a falling out with his family, his entire personality has undergone a dramatic change.
She had better grades than him, more money, and better clothes and shoes.
He was completely outmatched.
Now that he has finally outmaneuvered Wang Peng in terms of watches, he is naturally in a very good mood.
Zhang Qianqian laughed and said, "Du Lei, you may not know, but this is a Shanghai brand watch, which is a high-end domestic watch."
“I might know,” Du Lei said with a half-smile. “I also know that the best domestically made watches are the Bayi brand; they’re made to military-grade quality.”
"You mean this?" Zhang Qianqian showed her wrist and said, "It's a birthday present my dad bought for me, a whole three hundred yuan."
"Amazing, it's great to be from a wealthy family, you don't have to work hard yourself." Du Lei gave her a thumbs up.
He turned his head, looked at Wang Cheng with a half-smile, and a hint of contempt flashed in his eyes.
Wang Cheng smiled awkwardly, confirming that Du Lei already knew he was living off a woman.
Zhang Qianqian said, "Digital watches used to be very popular, but now they're all cheap knock-offs, and I'm embarrassed to wear them out."
At this point, she gave Wang Peng a cold look.
Du Lei picked up Wang Peng's wrist and said, "Brother Peng also bought a Bayi brand watch, which cost three hundred yuan."
"Hehe, is it fake?" Zhang Qianqian took two steps to Wang Peng's side and grabbed his wrist.
Wang Peng dodged, saying, "Whether it's real or fake doesn't matter; the main thing is that it's comfortable to wear."
"That's more like you." She glanced at Wang Peng's fake designer clothes and chuckled, "So the watch is fake too?"
Wang Peng shook his head, glanced at his watch, and realized there were still five minutes before class.
"Brother Lei, class is about to start," he said.
Zhang Qianqian suddenly widened her eyes and pointed at Wang Peng's watch, "Really? It's real!"
"It doesn't matter, my cousin bought it for me." Wang Peng put his arm around Du Lei's shoulder, and the two brothers walked towards the teaching building.
Zhang Qianqian's expression changed instantly.
Why does he wear a 300-yuan watch?
Why should his cousin buy it for him?
"Qianqian, is Wang Peng's watch fake?"
"He is a pragmatist. He won't deliberately spend money to buy luxury watches, nor will he ask his cousin to buy them for him."
"unless……"
Jealousy welled up inside him; it must have been his cousin who bought it for him.
He also wanted to ask, "On what grounds?"
They're both cousins, so why is his older cousin so good to him, but doesn't even give him a second glance?
"Wang Cheng, are you doubting my judgment?" Zhang Qianqian stared at him, chuckling coldly. "Can't I tell the difference between truth and falsehood?"
"That's not what I meant," Wang Cheng hurriedly waved his hand. "I just felt..."
"Shut up," Zhang Qianqian sneered. "There's a hundred Wang Pengs between you and Wang Peng. You're not worthy to carry his shoes."
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the teaching building.
Wang Cheng watched her retreating figure, his self-esteem ruthlessly crushed, and he clenched his teeth in secret.
He thought to himself, "If it weren't for your stinking money, you wouldn't even be worthy of carrying my shoes."
At this moment, Zhang Qianqian turned around and said, "What are you standing there for? Let's go!"
Wang Cheng hurriedly walked to her side and said softly with a smile, "You go back to class first, I'm going to the student council interview?"
"Oh? You signed up for the student council?" Zhang Qianqian asked.
Last week, students posted photos and information at the school's information board, recruiting two members from across the school.
Many people signed up.
Because the country has introduced a new policy that allows outstanding student leaders at the provincial level to be recommended for university admission.
This is a brand new track.
Many people applied, and the student union selected ten candidates, one of whom was Wang Cheng.
"Oh, did I underestimate you?" Zhang Qianqian laughed. "You want to compete for the Outstanding Student Leader award?"
Wang Cheng scratched his head and laughed, "My grades aren't good, so I have to think of other ways to get into university."
"If you joined the student council, would you propose banning students from doing business on campus?" Zhang Qianqian asked.
Wang Cheng was taken aback; this was the core reason he joined the student council.
He was jealous of Wang Peng. If he could ban Wang Peng from selling ballpoint pens at school, why not?
"Keep it up, I'll help you." Zhang Qianqian patted his shoulder and turned to walk into the teaching building.
The school bell rang.
Wang Cheng walked into the academic affairs building and went to the student union's meeting room on the third floor.
The other nine candidates were already queuing outside for their interviews, which were conducted by Vice President Zhang Tiezhu.
"Wang Peng, I will definitely join the student council and I will definitely destroy your business." He secretly vowed.
Teaching building.
The students are studying on their own.
At that moment, a boy wearing glasses walked into the classroom and went up to the podium.
"Which one of you is Wang Peng?" he asked.
Wang Peng looked up and saw a gentle and refined face.
"That's me," Wang Peng stood up. "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
"I'm Zhou Xiayu from the student council. I'd like to talk to you about something. Do you have time?" Zhou Xiayu asked with a smile.
Zhou Xiayu, the famous student council president, is the daughter of Zhou Ming, the vice principal.
"So it's Chairman Zhou, my apologies for not recognizing you sooner," Wang Peng said with a smile. "I have time, where shall we talk?"
