Chapter 36 Shopping 1-Back to 18, I became rich by spending money
In the afternoon, Wen Yan and the other two were putting on makeup in the dormitory while waiting for Dong Yuan to return. Wen Yan checked her wardrobe and decided it was another day without anything to wear. She was struggling with the decision of whether to wear shorts, a dress, or just a T-shirt. One was easy to take off and suitable for trying on clothes, while the other was comfortable.
Just as I was struggling with this, Dong Yuan suddenly rushed in from outside the door, almost soaked all over, with sweat all over her forehead. "I'm dying of heat, I'm dying of heat." She muttered to herself while taking off her clothes. After taking off one piece on the left and one on the right, she rushed into the bathroom with a bath towel.
The three of them looked at each other in bewilderment. What was going on? Was the old house on fire? It was so hot.
Dong Yuan took a quick shower, and the temperature in the dormitory immediately cooled down.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you sweating after the interview?" Wen Yan finally chose a skirt and a T-shirt. When shopping, comfort is more important. While changing clothes, she asked Dong Yuan who was drying her hair.
The other two looked at her with eager eyes, asking her to tell them quickly, "Hurry up and tell me, did you go up the mountain or where else? How could it be so hot?"
"Don't even mention it. The president of our Sanda Club is absolutely utterly ruthless. He has no sympathy for women. Do you know how many girls went there today just for the reputation of the Sanda Club, to learn the skills? Who knew that the president took all the interviewees to the playground? You have no idea how perverted he is. It was scorching hot, nearly 40°C, and he made everyone run 1000 meters, tested push-ups, and even worse, a weighted obstacle course. And worst of all, he even compiled everyone's results and ranked them. Have you ever seen a selection process like this?" Dong Yuanguang said, not satisfied, and stomped her foot vigorously. If she hadn't been used to wildness since she was a child, she might not have been able to make it.
"Weighted obstacle race? Aren't you afraid of getting sunburned in such hot weather?" Several people were stunned when they heard it.
"Of course not. You don't know. When doing push-ups today, some girls started crying and someone even fainted. And then that perverted president just said calmly, 'Eliminated,' and had them taken to the infirmary on stretchers." Dong Yuan said as she stuffed a mouthful of snow cake. She was starving and felt like everything she had at noon was gone.
"So it's so hard to get into Sanda? Are you sure? And if the intensity is this high just in the interview, it won't get even higher in the future. Are you sure?" Anyang looked at Dong Yuan worriedly. She couldn't believe someone so thin could be so strong. Her skinny arms and legs looked like they would break if bent, and would be blown away by the wind.
"It has come to this, so just stick with it. But it can also be seen that this club is quite professional, not just superficial. So we have to persevere." Dong Yuan felt that maybe after she had practiced well, she would be able to beat two muscular men by herself. As she spoke, she clenched her fists as if she was going to rush out and beat someone up.
A few people twitched their lips and said, "Okay, then good job."
"Put on some makeup and let's go shopping." Anyang told Dong Yuan to pack up quickly.
"Don't worry, I'll be quick. I'm so dark, why should I put on makeup? Just put on some sunscreen. Wait for me five minutes." After saying that, he started to get dressed in a hurry. He put on a T-shirt and jeans, and started to apply lotion.
Wen Yan pressed the corner of his eyes, feeling a headache.
When the few of them went out, Dong Yuan also picked up a bag of dry steamed bread slices to satisfy her hunger.
"Let's have something to eat first, or we can go eat later." Wen Yan started the car and said.
"Why don't you just finish shopping first? It's not a big deal. I can still hold on." Dong Yuan thought that it was just shopping, and it would be the same if she went to eat afterward.
Chen Yuyan turned her head from the passenger seat and said earnestly, "I think it's better for you to eat first. After all, if you go shopping, you may have to wait two or three hours."
"Does shopping take so long? Isn't it true that when you go shopping you just buy whatever you want and leave? Why does it take so long???" Dong Yuan felt that her understanding of shopping was wrong. Two or three hours, does that mean he has to buy the whole mall?
"Are you a girl? Don't you need to try on everything in every store when shopping? And you should also consider the price-performance ratio. Maybe you'll even come back to take another look." Chen Yuyan looked at Dong Yuan unhappily.
"Wen Yan, this is it. I think we should go eat first." Dong Yuan immediately changed her words. Eat first, eat first!
Wen Yan laughed out loud. She knew that the three people in their dormitory were all capable of going out, and she didn't believe that Dong Yuan would not compromise.
"What to eat? Western food? Hot pot? Stir-fried dishes? Take your pick." Wen Yan asked for their opinions.
"Forget about Western food. I don't feel full. How about hot pot?" Dong Yuan had never eaten it, but she had heard that a piece of beef cost hundreds of dollars. Is that like eating gold? And it still doesn't fill me up.
"Why eat hot pot? You'll stink of hot pot. Just eat Western food. Western food has things that fill you up." Anyang was the first to object. She was wearing one of the few nice-looking dresses in her wardrobe, so how could she eat hot pot? No, no, absolutely not.
"I'm not picky, as long as I can eat my fill, that's fine." Dong Yuan thinks that as long as the food is edible, it's fine, she's not picky.
"Okay, Sister Wen, I'll send you a great Western restaurant. There's a shopping mall nearby." Chen Yuyan is a local, so she naturally knows where the best food is.
"Okay, then we'll go with you today."
Following the navigation, we came to a restaurant with a particularly bourgeois atmosphere.
When I entered the restaurant, I heard someone playing the piano.
"It's my first time to eat in this kind of environment, and I feel a little uncomfortable. I feel like I might not even know how to eat later." Dong Yuan feels extremely uncomfortable now.
"It's okay. We are all family and no one will laugh at you. Just enjoy your meal." Chen Yuyan took Dong Yuan's hand, shook it, and spoke to her in a coquettish tone.
After sitting down, the waiter brought four menus directly. Dong Yuan looked at the menu and found that every dish looked very exquisite and the prices were also very reasonable. She raised her head and saw the waiter looking at her inquiringly, and immediately lowered her head.
Wen Yan looked at Dong Yuan and knew that she was scared by the price. In fact, it was understandable. In her previous life, she would never have the courage to walk into such a place to eat. She still remembered the only time she ate steak, and it was in the buffet that a colleague invited her to for his birthday. It was quite a joke at that time.
Wen Yan simply stopped reading and said, "Yubao, just order whatever you want. You've been here before and you know what's the best. Just order some food to fill Dong Yuan's stomach. Today's my treat, so let's just think of it as our first official dormitory dinner together. Also, as you can see, I have a lot of pocket money, so I'll spend mine now. It won't be too late to treat you back when you're able to earn money in the future."
"If I go to H Province or Shanghai in the future, you two should be my tour guides. Yubao is a local, so he can take us to try all the delicious food in Anyang during our four years of college."
Dong Yuan knew that Wen Yan was taking care of her, and she didn't feel inferior at all. Just because she couldn't afford to eat now didn't mean she wouldn't be able to afford it in the future.
"Okay, when you come to the beach, I'll take you to eat the authentic local cuisine." Dong Yuan agreed without any hesitation.
Chen Yuyan ordered a large table with great interest. She never liked to think too much. It would be fine to just invite guests over today and take them back tomorrow.
"Hmm~~~~, it's really delicious. The high price is justified." Dong Yuan couldn't stop eating the cream of mushroom soup in the exquisite bowl.
"Of course, how can my recommendation be wrong? This is the result of the efforts of a professional foodie. Don't worry, I'm here. I guarantee that you will experience all the delicious and fun things in Xinyang during your four years in college." Chen Yuyan patted her chest and said proudly. You can doubt her IQ, but you can't doubt the ability of a foodie.
