"Bang bang bang"
A knock came at the door.
Li Lechen quickly put the seven or eight bottles of water that had already been bottled and placed next to him into his personal shop. He frowned as he looked at the two full buckets and the empty one, and then brought in the clothes that were soaking in the bucket on the balcony.
He then got up to open the door.
"Senior! It's me again!"
Unsurprisingly, it was Xu Ziyuan standing at the door again.
Li Lechen was no longer completely exasperated by this situation, but he still couldn't help but complain, "Girl, this is a boys' dormitory. Although girls aren't prohibited from coming in, it's not really appropriate for you to keep coming over like this."
"But I'm doing something serious." Xu Ziyuan looked genuinely confused.
Li Lechen looked up at the sky, speechless. It sounded as if he himself was thinking something inappropriate. So he changed the subject and asked, "What are you going to try to sell me today?"
"This!" Xu Ziyuan pulled out two coupons with lightning speed.
Meixi Reservoir?
Li Lechen was a little puzzled. Xu Ziyuan was holding a ticket for Meixi Reservoir.
Meixi Reservoir is located in the suburbs of Lingcheng. It is a national-level drinking water source protection area and a 5A-level scenic spot. The vegetation there is lush and it is a natural oxygen bar. However, the ticket price is not cheap. Even with a student discount, it still costs more than 30 yuan.
Because Meixi Reservoir is located in Lingcheng, Li Lechen, a native of Lingcheng, rarely goes there to play. He only remembers going there once as a group during a primary school spring outing.
"How much?"
Upon seeing the ticket in Xu Ziyuan's hand, Li Lechen was already preparing to take out his money as soon as he finished speaking.
To everyone's surprise, Xu Ziyuan shook his head repeatedly and said, "These tickets aren't for sale, they're given away for free."
"Give it to me? Why?"
"Pfft—" Xu Ziyuan couldn't help but laugh, "Are you a masochist? You don't want it when it's given to you, but you'll take it when it's sold to you?"
“”
Li Lechen was speechless. His good intentions had been completely wasted. Wasn't he just thinking about how she always organized charity sales? Otherwise, he wouldn't have bought the tickets at all; he'd just consider it a donation.
Xu Ziyuan then explained, "Our purified water is sourced from the Meixi Reservoir, and these tickets are a gift from the purified water company; there are only ten available."
"Since it's a gift, let's give it to someone else."
"I'll sell them to you then, fifty yuan each, two here, one hundred yuan."
“”
Seeing Xu Ziyuan's serious expression, holding the ticket in one hand and spreading out the other to ask for money, Li Lechen was speechless. If he knew the reason and still handed over a hundred yuan, it wouldn't be out of kindness but outright foolishness.
So he snatched the ticket away and said, "You gave it to me, but now you want money back? You're so greedy."
"Anyway, you have money." Xu Ziyuan said dismissively.
This infuriated Li Lechen, leaving him speechless with frustration. If his donation of the lottery winnings of over three million yuan was an accident, then the items he bought from Xu Ziyuan alone were worth thousands, especially the large quantities of water he had purchased in recent days.
At this moment, Xu Ziyuan seemed to have thought of the water issue as well. Before leaving, she checked the ledger and saw that eight buckets of water had been delivered to dormitory 405 in just three days. So, she subconsciously peeked over Li Lechen's shoulder and looked into his dormitory.
What are you looking at?
Li Lechen turned to the side, puzzled, and followed Xu Ziyuan's gaze to the water dispenser.
"You drink two or three buckets of water every day?"
Although Xu Ziyuan said it himself, his lips twitched involuntarily as he spoke. Clearly, no matter how much the four of them drank, they couldn't possibly finish two or three buckets of water a day.
Li Lechen knew that the actual figure was more than that, because the four buckets of water delivered today had probably not been recorded in the books. He used four buckets of water every day.
Fortunately, I had prepared in advance, so I walked over and pointed to the clothes in the bucket and said, "Of course, we can't drink that much, so we use it to wash clothes, and we also use it to wash our faces and brush our teeth."
"do the laundry"
Xu Ziyuan, who had only been twitching at the corner of his mouth, now couldn't help but twitch his entire face. It would be fine if it were just for washing his face and brushing his teeth, since some girls who are careful will use purified water to wash their faces, but using it for washing clothes is going too far.
Is it really necessary to be so wasteful?
Li Lechen didn't explain further. Since he was doing a good deed anyway, he might as well be a tycoon for once. He turned back and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to washing clothes."
"that!"
Seeing that Li Lechen was about to close the door, Xu Ziyuan quickly pulled his thoughts back from washing clothes with purified water and continued, "This ticket has an expiration date, so be sure to use it before it expires."
"Okay." Li Lechen said dismissively, casually stuffing the ticket into his pocket.
Seeing this, Xu Ziyuan objected: "You didn't even look at it, how do you know the date?"
"I'll see later, okay?" Li Lechen was speechless. He still needed to refill the water bottle. Just as he was talking to Xu Ziyuan, the smart assistant reminded him that Lai Haoren had sent a message, still urging him to refill the water bottle.
The more indifferent Li Lechen seemed to be about the tickets, the more anxious Xu Ziyuan became, blurting out, "The deadline is tomorrow!"
"Tomorrow?" Li Lechen was utterly speechless. "What do you mean by giving me two tickets that expire tomorrow?"
"I'm telling you to go tomorrow. Tomorrow's the weekend. Do you have something else going on?"
Xu Ziyuan's words left Li Lechen speechless. Does that mean he's free on the weekend? He's busy!
"So you really have to go! I gave you two tickets, you can bring your girlfriend along," Xu Ziyuan reminded him before turning to leave.
Li Lechen rolled his eyes.
However, the reservoir forest
