When she heard that they had to stay for a week, Wei Li frowned even more. She thought it would only be two or three days... But after asking, Jiang Lingling was still like this. She could say whatever she wanted, but if she really didn't have the money to stay in a guesthouse, it would be her fault.
But she has to say what she should say
"Then let's make it clear in advance. She can stay for a week, but she can only sleep with you, and you have to clean up after yourself."
Without waiting for Zhou Nier to speak, Wei Li continued
"The most important thing is, I'm telling you in advance, if there are outsiders living in the dormitory and the dormitory manager finds out, we will be deducted points. This score is also related to our scholarship. If you think it's okay, then you can stay for this week."
Jiang Lingling and Wei Li had average grades, so they couldn't get scholarships anyway. Nanqiao was too lazy to apply for them, so except for Zhou Nier, the others in their dormitory didn't care about losing points.
Wei Li said this in advance to prevent being discovered. Zhou Nier complained about not getting the scholarship.
"I...I know. Don't worry, we will be careful." Zhou Nier was a little hesitant when talking about the scholarship, but Ma Lan really didn't have the money to live in a guest house, and neither did she. If she really didn't live in the dormitory, she would have to sleep on the street.
So even if she hesitated now, and was dissatisfied with the defensiveness in Wei Li's words, she couldn't say anything. She could only hold on to Ma Lan who wanted to argue and agree to this matter.
The matter was settled, and the dormitory finally became quiet. However, it was getting late, so Nanqiao closed his eyes and rested for a while before getting up to wash up.
When Nanqiao returned to the dormitory from the washroom at the end of the corridor, she saw Malan standing in front of her desk. Malan was still holding the watch she had taken off and placed on the desk when she was going to wash up. It looked like she was about to put it in her pocket. Nanqiao glanced into the dormitory. Jiang Lingling and Wei Li had just gone out to wash up, and Zhou Nier was just climbing down from the bed at this time, so she didn't see what Malan did.
"Growing up like this, didn't your family teach you not to touch other people's things?"
Nanqiao's cold voice suddenly came, and Ma Lan, who was already trembling with fear, was immediately startled when she heard Nanqiao's voice. The watch in her hand was also thrown to the ground by Ma Lan. At this time, she was looking at Nanqiao with horror.
"I...I'm just curious...just want to take a look"
Zhou Nier came down and saw the watch fall to the ground. Her face turned pale. Zhou Nier subconsciously looked at Nanqiao, only to see that Nanqiao, who usually had a smile on his face, had no smile on his face at this moment. His face was gloomy and scary.
With shaking hands, he picked up the watch from the ground, wiped it with the corner of his clothes and returned it to Nanqiao, but Nanqiao did not take it.
"Take a look? Just take a look and I'll put it in your pocket?" Nanqiao sneered. This afternoon was really annoying enough. Nanqiao's patience has reached its critical point.
"I...I didn't. If you hadn't come in and scared me, how could I have fallen to the ground?"
"Oh, you're blaming me?" Nanqiao was really amused by this guy's train of thought.
"Qiaoqiao, are you done packing? I got some chocolates for you to eat this afternoon." Ying Xue's voice came from outside the door, holding two boxes of chocolates in her hands. When she saw Nanqiao standing at the door, she smiled and stepped forward to stuff the two boxes of chocolates into Nanqiao's hands, while looking at Nanqiao sideways, waiting for Nanqiao's praise. However, she found that Nanqiao's face was not in good condition.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Ying Xue wiped the water drops on Nan Qiao's hair, looked at the situation in front of her, and saw the watch in Zhou Ni'er's hand and the trembling expressions of the two people. Ying Xue's face darkened. She took the watch and checked it, frowned and said, "Isn't this the gift from my uncle before? How come a diamond fell out?"
"You...what nonsense are you talking about? It just fell from such a high place like the table, how could the diamond fall out?" Ma Lan got anxious when she heard Ying Xue say that. Not to mention a watch with diamonds, she couldn't even afford to pay for an ordinary watch.
"Oh, we have nothing to do, so why would we lie to you?" Ying Xue understood the whole story. At this moment, Shen Nian and Jiang Lingling also came, and they all looked at Zhou Nier and Ma Lan with sullen faces.
They couldn't help but think, they still have to live here for a week, and it's not even past noon yet, and such a big thing has happened. Things in Nanqiao are not cheap at all. If they report this to the police... they don't dare to think about the outcome of this matter...
"I don't want to waste time talking to you. This watch costs 1,100 yuan. I bought it overseas. You can't repair it. I'll give it back to you at the price you paid, or you can pay for the repairs. It's your choice."
The people around him gasped when they heard the price of the watch. At that time, the factory workers who did a good job only made 50 or 60 yuan a month. It would take two years of not eating or drinking to earn 1,100 yuan. But for Nanqiao, it was just a watch... and it was given to him by someone else...
Ma Lan and Zhou Nier were both anxious when they heard this. How could this watch be so expensive! One watch is enough to buy 5 bicycles, and Nanqiao just wears it on her wrist? Even though they knew that Nanqiao's family was rich, they couldn't imagine that she lived such a luxurious life.
"I...I won't pay."
"Maybe there was no drill there in the first place. And even if there was, who knows if you had already dropped it."
Ma Lan argued with a trembling voice, lacking any confidence at all.
Nanqiao was too lazy to talk nonsense with her. The dormitory was now made of dark grey cement. Although the diamond was small, it fell on the ground. The sun was shining brightly at this moment, and Nanqiao saw the reflection of the diamond early. He put the chocolate in his hand on the table, took a few steps forward, and picked up the small diamond on the ground.
"Is there anything else to say now?"
Ma Lan looked at the diamond in Nanqiao's hand and her heart sank. How could such a small thing be seen?
"This watch was given to each of the three of us by my uncle. I'm still wearing it. Do you want to confirm it again?" Shen Nian said, taking off the watch on his wrist and handing it over.
