"Wang Xinghe? I never expected to run into you here. I heard you didn't take the college entrance exam. Where are you working now?"
"In Kyoto."
"Yueyue, don't listen to his nonsense. Wang Xinghe is fixing screws. You can earn more fixing screws in Kyoto, right? Well, Kyoto is a big city, much better than the provincial capital."
"Work hard! There are plenty of rich women in big cities. Maybe if you can hook up with one, you'll never have to worry about anything again!"
Wang Xinghe had already started looking for Liu Qingmeng, wondering where she had gone. Wasn't she supposed to be waiting for him here?
"Xinghe, I never imagined you'd be in such a sorry state now. If you had been with me back then, you wouldn't have had to drop out of high school and go to Kyoto to work as a screwdriver. Otherwise, now..."
"What are you doing?" Looking down, Wang Xinghe saw that Yue was about to attack him. He felt a chill and quickly took a few steps back.
"Yueyue, what are you doing!"
"I was just teasing him on purpose. Does he even deserve to be with me now? Li Zheng, I only love you now!"
"I knew it, how could you lay a hand on someone who's just tightening screws?"
"I only like you, Li Zheng. Let's not go back tonight. We finally got to come out."
"Okay! We won't go back! Let's go see a movie later, and then we'll go get a hotel room."
"Li Zheng, what are you saying in front of outsiders? She's a girl."
Wang Xinghe had already taken out his phone, ready to ask Liu Qingmeng where she was.
"Wang Xinghe, what are you doing with your phone? Are you trying to find someone to help you out of this mess?"
"My affairs are none of your business. Are you the police of the Pacific Ocean?"
"What do you mean? Li Zheng, is he insulting us?"
"That's why I say you're uncultured, Li Zheng. This kind of woman is just for fun, don't take her seriously, it's not befitting your status."
"You! Wang Xinghe, Shi Yue is the school beauty with countless suitors. You're just a sour grapes."
"Then you can keep your big grape covered and enjoy it."
"Baby, what are you doing here? Are these people you know? Hello."
Suddenly, a female voice came from behind Li Zheng and Shi Yue. When the two turned around, Shi Yue looked like an ugly duckling in front of the girl.
“Yes, it’s an ‘acquaintance,’ a very close ‘acquaintance’!” Wang Xinghe emphasized the word “acquaintance” when he said it.
Liu Qingmeng walked over and took Wang Xinghe's arm.
Hello everyone.
"Wang Xinghe, wow, you brought back such a beautiful girl as reinforcements. Are you trying to annoy me?"
"Mengmeng, didn't you say you'd wait for me here? Where have you been?"
"Hehe, look at my hand, I went to buy ice cream. I saw some for sale next to me, so I bought one."
"Hey! How dare you ignore me?" Li Zheng shouted at Wang Xinghe and the other man.
"Mengmeng, let's go. You only bought one ice cream."
I thought you didn't eat it.
"But I want to eat it now."
"How about I let you have a bite? But you can only have a tiny bite."
"Okay, I'll take a small bite."
Liu Qingmeng held the ice cream to Wang Xinghe's lips, and Wang Xinghe took a small bite.
"Look how distressed you are. Let's go back."
"Li Zheng! How dare they ignore us like this!"
Li Zheng's eyes were fixed on Liu Qingmeng.
"Li Zheng, what are you looking at!"
Li Zheng was jolted back to his senses by Shi Yue's sudden movement.
"Oh, it's nothing. I was just thinking that Wang Xinghe is really interesting. The reinforcements he brought in are actually quite convincing."
"He dares to ignore us like this, it makes me so angry!"
"Okay, Yueyue, don't be angry. I'll call our homeroom teacher in a few days and arrange a class reunion. We can catch up then."
"I want to go too!"
"Okay, you'll be my girlfriend then, come with me. If my classmates knew I was dating the school beauty, they'd be so envious."
"Then it seems like I don't have any particularly nice clothes."
"Let's go shopping now, let's buy a nice outfit, and while we're at it, let's buy one for tonight too."
"Li Zheng, you're so annoying! I'm ignoring you!"
"Haha, let's go shopping for clothes."
"Baby, who are they? Why are they so hostile towards you?"
"To be honest, it's a bit melodramatic." So Wang Xinghe explained the situation between the two to Liu Qingmeng.
"Hahaha, that's hilarious, baby. How come I didn't know you went to Kyoto to fix screws?"
"I'm speechless. They're so brain-dead that they think I transferred schools midway because I didn't take the college entrance exam and went to work as a screwdriver."
"Don't your classmates know you transferred to Kyoto University yet?"
"I don't know either. I don't have many close classmates, and we lost contact after I went to Kyoto. Who knew that the rumors about me would spread like this?"
“Then I’ll have to find some time to explain to them. This is slandering my reputation.”
"It's alright, they're not important people anyway. But my teachers, I should visit them if I have time. They were all very kind to me back then."
"Sure, it's up to you. I'll go with you."
"Alright, now that we've bought everything, let's go to the orphanage."
"Let's go, now I have no worries and can go back."
"Wait a minute! Baby, you said that girl just now had a crush on you? And she was the school beauty queen?"
"Huh? Did I? Did I say that?"
"Fine! You're still denying it, baby? Tell me honestly, did you receive her love letter or not!"
What do you think?
"I didn't even notice what she looked like. Isn't she beautiful? She's the school beauty."
"It used to be alright, but now, it's just plain and vulgar."
"Fine! Confess! Did you accept her love letters? Do you like her too? Wang Xinghe, if you don't tell the truth, I'll go and complain to Dean Chen today! I'll cry in front of her!"
"Mengmeng, I'm just giving an objective evaluation. She's the school beauty, but her looks are just average. Of course, she's definitely not as pretty as Mengmeng. Mengmeng is miles ahead of her!"
"You didn't even see me back then. You said she was pretty good-looking. Can you honestly say you weren't attracted to her? She was the school beauty, she pursued you for a month, wrote you 30 love letters, and you weren't moved?"
"Alright, Mengmeng, are you jealous? I was focused on studying and wasn't thinking about anything else."
"Really? Then why did you say she's alright looking!"
"She's always hanging around in front of me, so it's normal to glance at her occasionally, right?"
"Pah! What a jerk! He just said he hadn't thought about me, and now he says he only glances at me occasionally. Sure enough, men's words are deceitful!"
