Huo Feng didn't know why he was so unlucky today.
On this rare weekend off together, I was supposed to go out with Yu Sangzhi, spend some money, have some fun, and maybe even take advantage of him...
Who knew that when I woke up in the morning I felt like I was possessed by a ghost!
He was stopped by Lao Huo!
Moreover, he was threatened with house arrest!
At this moment, Huo Feng was confined to his room, lazily lying on the bed, holding up his cell phone to answer a call with Yu Sangzhi...
good.
I had originally agreed to go to Yu Sangzhi's house to find her in half an hour, but now that Old Huo had interfered, the plan was temporarily shelved.
Huo Feng spent 20 minutes telling Yu Sangzhi everything that happened this morning, using all kinds of fancy words.
On the other end of the phone, Yu Sangzhi listened to him chattering quietly and patiently. As he listened, he suddenly laughed.
Although they were only separated by the phone, Huo Feng's indignant mood improved when he heard her laugh. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips and smiled heartily.
"Oh, that's why, even though I really want to find you now, I'm helpless because I have a father like this." Huo Feng sighed with a smile.
There was more helplessness in his tone.
Yu Sangzhi could tell that he didn't have much aversion to his father, he just felt helpless.
"Then you should rest at home today."
Yu Sangzhi then said, "I'm also resting at home. Also, I'm reading the book you recommended to me."
"What?"
Huo Feng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "The book I recommended? When did I ever recommend a book to you?"
Yu Sangzhi reminded him, "Didn't you recommend Love O2O to me before?"
"Um!"
Huo Feng's eyes widened when he heard this, "I recommended that to you a long time ago!"
Yu Sangzhi nodded. "I've read it several times. I think this type of book is quite interesting. Do you have any other recommendations?"
"Yes, I have!"
Huo Feng nodded, feeling proud that Yu Sangzhi had accepted his taste. "I'll recommend all the modern romance novels about women that I've read to you later! Hey, I have an account! You can log in with my account and read them! It's free!"
Yu Sangzhi refused: "I don't want to read e-books. Looking at the phone for too long will make my eyes tired. Recommend me some paper books and I'll go to the library to borrow them next week."
All right…
She really deserves to be his girlfriend.
Reading is such a ritual!
Huo Feng quickly seized the opportunity and made an invitation, "Hey, why don't I take you to the Ruian Library tomorrow? There are many more books there than in our school! I'll buy you anything you like!"
Yu Sangzhi still refused, "It's too far and troublesome. Besides, it's better to just borrow the books and not spend money."
Huo Feng waved his hand and said generously, "No! It's not far! And it's just a small amount of money! I'm very rich now! I have more than 3,000 yuan in my pocket and have nowhere to spend it!"
Yu Sangzhi: "If you really have no money to spend, go buy your dad a bottle of cologne."
Huo Feng: "Hello..."
Why are you speaking for Old Huo even though you haven’t married yet?
Too much!
Yu Sangzhi chuckled and said, "Your father treasures his watch so much. You should actually apologize to him."
Huo Feng exclaimed, "Ah!" and raised his eyebrows in disbelief. "Are you sure? He locked me in the bathroom and beat me with a toilet sieve!"
Yu Sangzhi didn't seem to feel pity for him. Instead, he said, "As a child, you're not meant to use such extravagant things. Whether it's cologne or a famous watch, they were all bought with your father's own money. Your father has provided you with everything he should have. But you're the one spending money that shouldn't be spent at your age."
here we go again…
Huo Feng heard the same tone as his father again! The same reason!
It was clearly he who was beaten, but in the end, his father blamed him, and Yu Sangzhi also blamed him!
As his girlfriend, she should comfort him and blame his father with him!
Yu Sangzhi didn't seem to support Huo Feng's decision, and continued, "I think that at your age, you should just wear clean clothes. There's no need to pursue luxury goods. Aren't you worried about wearing things that aren't yours?"
Huo Feng was silent for a few seconds, "What are you worried about?"
Yu Sang knew: "Aren't you worried about damaging your dad's watch worth hundreds of thousands of dollars?"
Huo Feng was silent for a few seconds again, "It's okay, he will fix it if it breaks."
After she answered, Huo Feng clearly heard her sigh on the other end of the phone. "So, it's understandable that your father is so angry. You're being so irresponsible and you've offended his dearest friend. A beating would be the least of his worries."
Huo Feng pouted and said "Oh" in a somewhat unhappy tone.
Yu Sangzhi heard that he seemed reluctant, so he said, "Have you heard the story of "The Necklace"?
Huo Feng: "What?"
Yu Sangzhi patiently said, "The Necklace, a short story by French writer Maupassant."
Huo Feng: “I haven’t seen it…”
Although he didn't want to admit it, Huo Feng's experience was just so limited!
Yu Sangzhi then explained the entire story to him: "The heroine of this story comes from a modest family, yet she's obsessed with the luxurious life of the aristocracy. To attend a gala, she uses the 400 francs her husband has saved to make a dress and borrows a precious necklace from a friend. At the party, she steals the show, her vanity fully satisfied. But at the end of the party, she loses the borrowed necklace. She has no choice but to hide the loss from her friend and slowly save up to compensate. From then on, the couple lived a frugal life for 10 years. In the process of saving money, the heroine's hands became rough, and her face aged. Eventually, they finally saved enough money to compensate her friend for the necklace, but she unexpectedly revealed that the necklace she lost was just a cheap one, while the one she had given as compensation was a real diamond necklace. Thus, the heroine's 10 years of hard work and rough life were wasted, all because of that necklace, all because of her pursuit of luxury and her own vanity."
