Shang Yechu found a small hotel and booked a single room.
The price of sixty yuan a day is really painful. Hotel and inn prices soared during the Spring Festival, and even this small inn increased its price by 20%.
Before Shang Yechu could even open her suitcase, she received a WeChat message.
Sheng Wenzhi: [Are you there?]
Shang Yechu put down her suitcase and typed two words: 【Yes. What's up?】
Sheng Wenzhi replied quickly: "Are you going home for Chinese New Year this year? Or are you spending it here?"
Shang Yechu sent her a picture of the hotel: 【Staying at a hotel.】
Sheng Wenzhi typed "typing..." for a long time before replying: 【How can you stay in a hotel? Send me your location, I'll come pick you up.】
Shang Yechu half-jokingly asked, "[Take me back to my hometown?]"
Sheng Wenzhi sent a voice message directly: "Come to my house for the New Year. I'll be the only one here, no outsiders."
"Don't be shy, my home is your home."
"You know my family situation, and besides, there are empty rooms, so there's nothing inconvenient about it."
Sheng Wenzhi seemed very afraid that Shang Yechu would reject her, so she sent five or six voice messages in a row:
"Give me your location."
"Aren't you always short of money? Hotels are expensive this time of year, but my house is free."
"We're friends, there's nothing wrong with friends staying at each other's houses for a while, right?"
Shang Yechu was also somewhat tempted. She only had a little over two thousand yuan in savings, and the deposit for her role in "Tianji Tower"—oh no, now "Xiao Fengque"—would only be credited to her account after the contract was signed. She was teetering on the edge of abject poverty.
Sheng Wenzhi seemed very wealthy; her clothes and accessories were always quite expensive during our meetings. Besides, the two girls weren't embarrassed at all.
"You can't afford to mess with money," Shang Yechu replied without hesitation, "Then I'll trouble you." She then sent Sheng Wenzhi her location.
Shang Yechu cancelled the remaining few days' rooms and dragged her suitcase out of the hotel.
About half an hour later, a black car slowly pulled up in front of Shang Yechu. The car window rolled down, revealing Sheng Wenzhi's face, which looked as if she hadn't slept well.
A strange feeling welled up in Shang Ye's heart.
She and Sheng Wenzhi had known each other for a very long time, witnessing each other's student days for two whole years. In her memory, the image of Sheng Wenzhi as a student was so ingrained. Even with ulterior motives and too much hypocrisy and impatience in their interactions, Sheng Wenzhi remained a student in her heart.
The fact that the other person came to pick her up in his car at that moment seemed to make him transcend the boundaries of being a student and step into the realm of adults.
With huge dark circles under her eyes, Sheng Wenzhi slowly got out of the car and listlessly picked up Shang Yechu's suitcase.
!!
I couldn't lift it and almost strained my back.
"Books are in here?" Sheng Wenzhi exclaimed in astonishment. "You don't even have a place to live, yet you're buying books?"
"I'll do it myself." Shang Yechu picked up the suitcase and stuffed it into the trunk. "Driving while fatigued is illegal."
