Chapter 278: Zhang Xuyuan is really willing to give up on you
In the Chinese Department of the Fifth Courtyard of Yenching University, Fang Yuqing, who was lying on the desk, looked listless and a little lazy.
It wasn't that she was sick, she just didn't want to move.
"What are you thinking about?" Her good friend Jin Yuanying came to her side and asked with a sly smile, "Are you thinking about your man?"
Hearing this, Fang Yuqing's face turned red.
She knew very well that Jin Yuanying was teasing her on purpose.
In recent days, she has been alone in every class, sitting in the most inconspicuous corner. Even though she is being teased and provoked by Jin Yuanying, she insists on keeping her teeth shut and not saying a word.
Seeing Fang Yuqing didn't respond, Jin Yuanying whispered quietly, "What's so great about that? He's just a stinky man!"
"It will be there soon if I want."
At this point, she pouted and said, "There are quite a few outstanding people at this welcome party!"
"Li Yufei's solo performance stole the show."
"We were saying that you were the most beautiful girl in our Chinese department, but you didn't even attend the welcome party."
Fang Yuqing really wasn't in the mood to attend the school's welcome party.
She said lazily, "It's better to get some more sleep than to attend the welcome party."
"What are you planning to eat for lunch today?" Fang Yuqing changed the subject.
She disliked Li Yufei from the bottom of her heart and didn't want to hear anyone mention her in front of her.
Jin Yuanying sighed and said, "What else can I eat? I don't have many fine grain coupons left. I can only eat steamed corn bread and pickles today."
Listening to Jin Yuanying's sigh, Fang Yuqing said, "Who asked you to buy so many books?"
"You can skip meals, but you can't skip buying books." Jin Yuanying said, "By the way, I heard that Xinhua Bookstore will have a new batch of famous books printed soon. Let's go buy some together tomorrow."
"I have to get up early this time, otherwise I still won't be able to buy it."
Fang Yuqing felt her heart beating when she heard about the famous works.
Although her classmates bought books, she could borrow them to read, but how could borrowing books be more casual than buying books? And if she didn't have enough money for lunch, she could go home to eat...
Just as all kinds of thoughts were flashing through her mind, she heard someone say, "Fang Yuqing, someone's looking for you."
There was also a burst of laughter following these words.
Hearing the voice, Fang Yuqing looked up and saw Cheng Xuyuan, wearing a white shirt, standing at the door of the classroom with a smile on his face.
The moment she saw Cheng Xuyuan, Fang Yuqing thought she was seeing things.
Otherwise, why would he appear when I thought of him?
However, when she subconsciously pinched her arm, she realized that she was not dreaming.
At this moment, she had no time to pay attention to Jin Yuanying and quickly rushed towards Cheng Xuyuan.
"When did you come back?" Fang Yuqing almost cried for joy when she came to Cheng Xuyuan.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "I came back today. I left my luggage at my home in the Overseas Chinese Apartment, and then I came to find you."
Hearing Cheng Xuyuan say this, Fang Yuqing felt a sweet feeling in her heart.
But then he complained: "You came back from such a long distance without even taking a rest at home. Why did you rush over here in such a hurry? I can't run."
Listening to Fang Yuqing's insincere words, Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Let's go for a walk."
Fang Yuqing turned her head and saw many people looking at this place. Knowing that this was not the place to talk, she quickly walked towards the stairs.
When Cheng Xuyuan was about to leave, Chen Jianxun and other friends all winked at Cheng Xuyuan with a sly smile that all men understand.
"Didn't you say you'd be back in seven days? How come it took one day longer?" The lotus flowers by the Weiming Lake were blooming beautifully. Fang Yuqing asked impatiently when she saw that there were finally fewer people around.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Because of some temporary adjustments, it was only half a day late."
"It's actually more comfortable this way. Otherwise, when we got back, it would have been past ten o'clock last night."
Fang Yuqing and Cheng Xuyuan walked side by side. Fang Yuqing asked him about his experience in Hong Kong while talking about her studies in the past few days, like a cheerful lark.
Cheng Xuyuan took Fang Yuqing's hand, sat down on a rock, and said with a smile: "When I was shopping in Hong Kong, I found a watch that was particularly suitable for you, so I bought it. See if it fits you."
As he spoke, Cheng Xuyuan took out a watch box with the Omega logo printed on it.
Fang Yuqing has a watch on her hand, but it is the Plum Blossom watch that her sister Fang Yuning gave away after retirement.
This watch is not bad, but it has been bumped and scratched quite often in the past.
Originally, Fang Yuning had been wearing this watch, but when she got married, Qin Wenhui gave her a new watch, and then this watch was given to Fang Yuqing.
Even though it was a second-hand Tissot watch, Fang Yuqing liked it very much.
After all, watches are not only beautiful, but also allow you to check the time at any time.
Looking at the exquisite box, Fang Yuqing complained: "I already have a watch, why are you wasting money?"
Seeing Fang Yuqing reluctant to part with the watch, Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "I think this watch is very suitable for you, so I bought it."
"Come, open it and look at my eyes."
Fang Yuqing opened the box and was attracted by the watch in front of her. The exquisite design was like a work of art, and the golden decoration flashed a dazzling light in the sun.
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Fang Yuqing who was in a daze, took the watch out of the box and put it on Fang Yuqing's hand.
Because before coming, Cheng Xuyuan had someone adjust it according to Fang Yuqing's wrist, so it was just the right size when worn.
"How much does this watch cost?"
Fang Yuqing looked at Cheng Xuyuan with great satisfaction, grinning, but tears came up unconsciously, and she wiped them away with her hands. The thoughtfulness of this beloved man almost warmed her! Seeing Fang Yuqing crying and laughing, Cheng Xuyuan hurriedly hugged her and said with a smile: "It's only five hundred..."
When Cheng Xuyuan mentioned five hundred yuan, Fang Yuqing felt that it was a bit too much. After all, this was a year's salary for many people.
"Five hundred Hong Kong dollars, which is less than two hundred yuan."
"Compared to the watches we have here, it's not much more expensive."
“But in terms of quality, it’s much better looking!”
"It's a shame not to buy this since I've made this trip."
After Cheng Xuyuan's words, Fang Yuqing gave up the idea of taking off the watch. This girl who was immersed in happiness felt that it was too expensive, but she was still happy that Cheng Xuyuan prepared a gift for her.
After strolling around with Cheng Xuyuan, Fang Yuqing went back to class.
When they returned to the classroom, because class was about to start, Jin Yuanying, Lan Beijia and other friends just smiled at Fang Yuqing and didn't say much.
But when the get out of class was over, the watch worn on Fang Yuqing's wrist attracted the attention of Jin Yuanying and others.
"This watch is so beautiful, especially the gold-plated part, which looks like real gold." Jin Yuanying said with emotion while holding Fang Yuqing's hand to admire the watch.
"Your great writer is really willing to spend money on you."
Fang Yuqing hurriedly explained that the golden part was gilded and it was not too expensive, only 500 Hong Kong dollars, less than 200 yuan.
Jin Yuanying and others did not doubt Fang Yuqing's explanation. After all, a watch cost nearly 200 yuan, which was very expensive in their opinion.
Most of the watches they bought themselves cost less than a hundred yuan.
According to Fang Yuqing's idea, she would naturally have dinner with Cheng Xuyuan in the evening.
However, the exchange group had a welcoming banquet in the evening, and Cheng Xuyuan had to attend, so after reminding Cheng Xuyuan not to drink too much, Fang Yuqing rode her bike back to her home in Shijingshan.
At home, Meng Fanjin was making dinner. When she saw her daughter coming back, she smiled and said, "Why did you come back so early today?"
As she spoke, her eyes fell on Fang Yuqing's new watch.
It wasn't that Fang Yuqing was showing off on purpose, but the watch was too conspicuous. When worn on Fang Yuqing's fair wrist, it looked like a beautiful bracelet.
"Where did it come from?" Meng Fanjin has always been very strict with his daughter. His heart tightened when he saw his daughter wearing such an expensive thing.
Seeing her mother frowning, Fang Yuqing hurriedly said, "Mom, this is what Xuyuan brought from Hong Kong."
"It cost two hundred dollars!"
As she spoke, Fang Yuqing waved her hand in front of her mother and said, "Isn't she beautiful?"
"It's really beautiful. It's well worth the two hundred dollars to buy this watch."
Meng Fanjin admired his daughter's watch, then said seriously, "By the way, I have no objection to you dating Cheng Xuyuan."
"But you have to remember this: before you two get married, no matter what, you must not cause any problems for me."
"Not before he gets divorced."
Meng Fanjin heard a theory from somewhere.
The general idea is that an experienced angler, seeing a big fish is hooked, does not rush to pick up the rod, but instead casts a long line, allowing the hooked fish to struggle in the water. When the fish is exhausted, you can easily lift it ashore. Fishermen call this "slipping". She has always been worried that one day if she doesn't keep a close eye on her, her innocent daughter will be slipped away by that bad boy Cheng Xuyuan.
Fang Yuqing felt helpless after hearing her mother's warning words. Just as she was struggling with her feelings, she saw her sister Fang Yuning and Qin Wenhui rushing over.
"Sister, I'm returning your Plum Blossom watch to you. I have a watch now." As Fang Yuqing spoke, she handed the Plum Blossom watch she had put away to Fang Yuning.
Fang Yuning also discovered her sister's new gift. Compared with her mother, she liked this beautiful watch more.
After taking it from Fang Yuqing and trying it on for a while, he said to Qin Wenhui: "Wenhui, buy me one next time you go to Hong Kong."
"Two hundred dollars, it's totally worth it!"
"I can save three months' salary when I go back."
Qin Wenhui was also quite interested in the gift that Cheng Xuyuan brought to Fang Yuqing, but he glanced at the watch on his wife's hand for a few seconds, and then asked with a hint of surprise: "How much is this watch?"
"Five hundred Hong Kong dollars, less than two hundred yuan." Fang Yuqing didn't pay attention to her brother-in-law's expression, and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, my sister likes it so much, buy her one next time you go!"
Qin Wenhui smiled awkwardly and said, "Yuqing, I can't afford it. I know your watch, it definitely can't be less than 200 yuan."
"Your watch is an Omega Constellation. I saw this watch when I went to Hong Kong. I remember it cost more than 5,000 Hong Kong dollars."
"I was going to buy it for your sister, but the price was so scary that I didn't buy it."
Fang Yuqing suspected that she had heard it wrongly. Before Qin Wenhui could finish, she exclaimed, "Brother-in-law, how much did you say this watch is?"
Qin Wenhui smiled and said, "It's more than 5,000 Hong Kong dollars. Cheng Xuyuan is really generous to you!"
