"Hello, it's not really appropriate to call you Little Fatty."
"It's alright, everyone calls me that, sister-in-law. If you don't call me that, I'll feel like an outsider!"
"Okay, Little Fatty, hello, my name is Liu Qingmeng."
"Sister-in-law, you're so beautiful! Are you a fairy?"
"Alright, stop talking about your sister-in-law, she's probably embarrassed. It's my treat today, let's go out for a late-night snack."
"No way! Xingxing, I have to do it. You're still a student. I went to work in Guangcheng and I've earned some money. I have to pay for it!"
"Sister-in-law, come with me! Let's go get some late-night snacks. That barbecue place on the street is amazing! Xingxing and I used to be broke, so we could only afford the cheap stuff. Now that we're rich, let's go and have a 300-500 yuan meal!"
"Wait a moment, let me tell Dean Chen, then we'll head over right away!"
As the three of them left the orphanage, Little Fatty exclaimed, "It's so great! Xingxing, in the blink of an eye we've all grown up. The hard times are over, and from now on it will be good days."
"Yes, do you have enough money to open a car repair shop? If not, let me know."
"Xingxing, judging by your outfit, you must have made a fortune while studying in a big city!"
"You have a little money. If you need more, just tell me."
"Okay! I'll definitely tell you if I don't have enough money. Looks like you've got some now."
"This outfit was bought for me by your sister-in-law."
"Wow, sister-in-law, you're so good to my brother! No, you're showing off your love! No more showing off your love, you're torturing this single dog!"
Liu Qingmeng linked arms with Wang Xinghe, listening to Wang Xinghe and his brother chat, and felt quite pleased.
"Wow! This car is amazing! I had it repaired in Guangcheng, and damn it, my mechanic wouldn't let me touch it, saying he couldn't afford to pay for it if I broke it!"
Wang Xinghe took one look and realized that this was his car.
"So what were you thinking at the time?"
"I, Liu Xiaopang, swear! Once my skills are good enough, I'll specialize in repairing luxury cars! I'll repair cars for rich people! That's how I'll make big money!"
"Little Fatty, is that all the backbone you have? I thought you were planning to drive your luxury car to your master's shop to have him fix it for you!"
"Well, I know my place. Let's go, let's go. Otherwise, if we stand in front of someone's car for too long, they might misunderstand and think we're car thieves, which would be troublesome. Let's go get some late-night snacks!"
Liu Qingmeng glanced at Wang Xinghe and realized that he didn't intend to tell Liu Xiaopang that it was his car, so naturally she couldn't say anything more.
"Boss! Give me thirty lamb skewers, twenty beef skewers, ten grilled kidney skewers, ten small yellow croaker skewers, and a dozen oysters! Vegetarian options too! Oh, and a case of beer!"
"Isn't this Little Fatty and Xinghe? You two are back for the New Year? You've made it big!"
"Sister Guo, look at what you're saying. We've been out there for a year, we can't be so poor that we can't afford a single meal."
"Okay, you guys sit down, I'll go grill some for you right away! This girl must be Xinghe's girlfriend."
"Sister Guo, this is my girlfriend."
"Alright, alright, it's really good. I've always thought you were a promising kid. Where did you get into college?"
“Going to university in Kyoto.”
"Alright, alright, that's great! You all can sit down first!"
"Damn, it's so good to be rich! Guo Jie used to look down on us, but now she'll chat with me for a few cents."
"Hey Fatty, interested in coming to Kyoto with me? Stop running your auto repair shop at home."
"Xingxing, to be honest, I want to try my luck in a big city, but you know my mom's situation, so I can't go."
"Why don't you bring your mom along too?"
"Forget it, Kyoto is too expensive. I'll bring my mom to visit you after I've made some money in a few years. You'll probably be settling down in Kyoto by then."
"Yes, I'll probably just come back to visit the dean and the others in the future, I won't go back to Ningjiang to develop my career."
"That's great. People should strive for better things, that's only right. Come on, let's have a drink, brother. Can your wife drink?"
"Your sister-in-law can't drink anymore, Mengmeng, you eat some skewers, Guojie's barbecue is really delicious."
"Okay, Fatty, you and Xinghe drink, I can't drink."
"Your sister-in-law is such a lady. If I ever make money, I want to date a lady like you."
"If you go to Kyoto, I'll recommend a few places."
"Sister-in-law, don't tempt me. I can't go now, but we've agreed that you have to introduce me to some girls later. The girls in big cities are all gorgeous!"
"Don't worry, even if I don't introduce you, your brother Xinghe will."
As more and more empty beer bottles piled up on the table, Wang Xinghe and Xiao Pang both got a little drunk.
"Xingxing, damn it, do you know why I came back? That boss is a real jerk. He takes advantage of the fact that I'm an apprentice and makes me do the hardest work for the lowest pay. I have to save every penny and deliver food after get off work. But I also have to thank him. If he hadn't made me do all the work, I wouldn't have been able to learn so quickly!"
“Xingxing, do you understand? I feel like I’m going to die from overwork if I keep going. What will happen to my mom? So I came back.”
Wang Xinghe gestured to Liu Qingmeng.
Liu Qingmeng stood up and paid the money.
"Hey little sister, you're here to pay the bill! It's 436 in total, just give me 400. Little Fatty and Xinghe have it tough too."
"Thank you, Sister Guo." Liu Qingmeng glanced at the bill and still paid 436, not a penny less. They were all ordinary people, and Liu Qingmeng didn't want to take advantage of them.
"Oh, little sister, you swept too much. Here, take these two drinks, consider it a treat from Sister Guo."
"Thank you, Sister Guo."
"Xingxing, are you done eating? Help me to pay the bill. I was so happy to see you today that I drank too much."
"I'm done eating, Mengmeng, let's go. I'll take him home first."
"Check, we haven't paid yet!"
"You're drunk, give it to me tomorrow."
"Okay, Sister Guo, we'll be going now. I'll pay you tomorrow! We're neighbors, I won't skip out on the bill!"
"Alright, alright, Xinghe, hurry up and help Little Fatty back. Can you help him? If not, I'll ask your brother-in-law to lend a hand."
"No need, Sister Guo, I can help him. Mengmeng is here too. Don't worry about us, I'll help him back."
"Okay, drive carefully!"
"Mengmeng, we've known everyone living in this area for many years, so the neighbors are all quite welcoming. Are you finding it a little strange?"
“I think this is great. Everyone is very welcoming. It’s much better than in Kyoto, where I don’t even know who my neighbors are. I stay at home all day and don’t even have anyone to talk to.”
"Isn't our aloof school beauty supposed to dislike talking to others?"
"Who says I'm a cold and aloof school beauty?"
"That's what everyone agrees on!"
"No, I didn't. Quickly help Little Fatty up and take him home."
"Yes, ma'am!"
"I think you've had too much to drink! I'm ignoring you!"
