The Single-Minded Boyfriend (4)
It goes without saying that after Pei Yun returned to the dorm that day, her roommates squealed in envy over the small and large shopping bags.
After Jiang Zhe came back, other than meeting and accompanying Pei Yun to eat every day, he spent the rest of his time either at the library or in his room.
No one knew what he was doing, but inferring from his low-key behaviour, he had indeed broken ties with those "sisters" and was single-mindedly dating Pei Yun.
The days pa.s.sed, and his disciplined life went by quickly.
Jiang Zhe"s collage was located in the north. That winter, snow floated down leisurely and covered the whole sky.
He stood below the female dorm and called Pei Yun on his phone.
At that time, Pei Yun was crazily revising her work, so she was a little unfocused when she picked up his call.
Pei Yun: “What"s up?”
Jiang Zhe : “Can you spare some time? I have good news to share with you.”
Pei Yun glanced at the mountain of review materials on her desk as the man"s voice travelled across the phone, full of antic.i.p.ation.
She didn"t hesitate much. Gritting her teeth, she agreed.
Her roommates sharing the same bedroom worried, “A"Pei, look at the time now, it"s better not to go out.”
“Yes, exams are important.”
“You"re a couple, after all. You can meet any time; there"s no need to meet now.”
"…………… ”
Pei Yun acknowledged her roommates good intentions, but humbly expressed her own thoughts and ran out of the dorm carrying a bag.
Downstairs, Jiang Zhe wore a smoky gray windbreaker, making his whole body look slender and tall.
Pei Yun saw him and sped up her pace.
Once she was closer, Jiang Zhe pulled her and walked out of the school compound.
Jiang Zhe: “A"Pei, I am very happy today.”
Pei Yun didn"t know what was happening, but she was influenced by Jiang Zhe"s good mood, asking: "Why? Did something good happen?"
Jiang Zhe opened his mouth, but changed his words at the last minute: "It"s a secret. I will tell you later."
He knew that Pei Yun was very busy these days, so he found a Chinese restaurant near the collage to eat. He handed the menu over to her, “A"Pei, what do you want to eat?”
This was the first time Pei Yun came to this restaurant. Flipping open the menu, her heart raced when she saw the prices written on it.
Just a random vegetarian dish already cost over $20, not to mention the meat dishes.
Compared to the cheap food in the cafeteria, this restaurant was way too blackhearted.
Her heart silently spit blood, but a slight smile hung on her face, “I am not hungry. I"ll just a drink.”
Jiang Zhe"s eyes flashed. Taking the menu, he placed an order for seven or eight dishes with the waiter.
The smile on Pei Yun"s face almost fell.
Once the waiter left, she immediately rushed over. In the end, she was countered by Jiang Zhe and ended up in his embrace. With their bodies melded together, he whispered quietly in her ear.
Pei Yun"s face changed colours a few times, before settling into an excited red. She grabbed Jiang Zhe"s shirt, trembling as she suppressed the agitation in her voice: “Really?”
Jiang Zhe sighed, intentionally making a distressed face: “A"Pei, you hold so little trust towards me in your heart?"
Pei Yun stared at him silently.
Jiang Zhe laughed helplessly and pinched her face: “You, you"re really persistent.”
Jiang Zhe showed her the transaction on his phone, “I divided it into two. $100,000 is reserved for our daily expenses, and the remaining money will be the start-up funds.”
Pei Yun mouth became an o-shaped, “Jiang Zhe, pinch me, am I dreaming?”
Jiang Zhe kissed her Face, “Can you feel that?”
Pei Yun: !!!
“My goodness.” She covered her mouth, but still didn"t manage to hide her excitement.
She knew that the future of computer science was bright, but she did not expect Jiang Zhe to be so amazing.
One million!
How many books did she have to translate in order to earn a million dollars?
And according to Jiang Zhe, this was only the beginning.
Pei Yun"s breathing was hurried and her face flushed red. She was even happier than the time she won $500,000 in the lottery.
Jiang Zhe wrapped his arms around her, “I only received this sum last night. Originally, I wanted to call you immediately, but it was too late, so I endured till today. A"Pei, I"m really happy.”
Pei Yun nodded heavily. Right now, she was more than grateful for the choice she made previously.
This kind of happy occasion, no matter how joyful it is, it wouldn"t be the same without someone to share it with.
That"s nice. She could share all of Jiang Zhe"s happiness and sorrows.
Pei Yun smiled sweetly.
The two of them ate a good lunch. As they were leaving, Pei Yun suddenly said: “Jiang Zhe, pack a few desserts to bring back.”
Jiang Zhe didn"t question her, directly instructing the waiter.
He waked Pei Yun back to her dorm and rubbed her head, “I"ll watch you go up.”
Pei Yun looked around and found that there was no one around. Holding back her embarra.s.sment, she lightly kissed Jiang Zhe"s cheeks before running away without looking back.
Jiang Zhe touched his cheeks with his fingers and smiled suddenly.
A girl who came out for a breather upstairs saw this scene, and angrily snorted, so shameless.
Pei Yun carried a plastic bag into the dorm. Her roommates were quiet surprised to see her, “Why are you back so soon today?”
Pei Yun: “We had lunch at the restaurant near the school. It doesn"t take a long time.”
“Wait a minute, the restaurant near the school… You"re not talking about that stupidly expensive Chinese restaurant, are you?”
Pei Yun took out the takeaway box and said coolly: “Yes, why?"
Her roommates looked at each other.
After a while, someone finally said: “A"Pei, who paid for the meal?”
Pei Yun: “Jiang Zhe did, is there a problem?”
"Cough…”
Pei Yun: “Why do you all look like that?”
"A"Pei, actually, I think Jiang Zhe treats you really well now. If you really want to continue dating him, then, then”
Pei Yun was confused: “What are you talking about?”
Her roommates looked at her and braced themselves, saying, “A"Pei, we have been friends for more than three years. Some things, we are just speaking from the standpoint of a bystander.”
Pei Yun: “En.”
"Back then, you were good to Jiang Zhe but he didn"t treasure you. Afterwards, you brought up the topic of breaking up in anger, and he suddenly woke up and turned over a new leaf. At that time, we encouraged you to set your standards higher, right?”
Pei Yun: “Uh huh.”
"While dating, it"s normal for a boyfriend to spend on their girlfriend. However, that also needs to have a limit.”
"You said that Jiang Zhe has money, so we won"t mention how he treats you meals and buys you items every other day. The problem is that he"s still a student right now. Even if he does part-time jobs to earn some money, it isn"t going to amount to much. Ultimately, he still relies on his parents. Spending so much on you, I"m afraid that he only can afford instant noodles when he goes back to his dorm.”
"If you only want to fool around and take revenge for his previous mistreatment, then we have nothing to say. But looking at you right now, you"ve already fallen. Then in the future, you…”
Her roommates voices became smaller and smaller. This kind of thing was originally already difficult to mention. If they didn"t get along so well usually, who would be willing to say such things, to put in so much effort, just to end up offending someone.
Pei Yun: ⊙ω⊙
She snorted in laughter, and under the three stupefied gazes, she walked over -- and hugged them.
Pei Yun: “Thank you for thinking about me. I"m very touched.”
“A"Pei…”
Pei Yun: “I do want to continue dating Jiang Zhe."
Pei Yun: “I didn"t want to bring this up originally, but seeing how worried you are about it, I will reveal a little bit. You"re not allowed to spread it.”
She leaned over and glossed over it, telling them how Jiang Zhe sold his software for money.
Her girlfriends heard it, and their hearts started pounding.
“Is this true?”
Pei Yun nodded.
“A"Pei, you really struck gold, hugging onto a golden thigh.”
Pei Yun smiled, but didn"t answer. Turning around, she picked up the takeaway box, “Oh, I guessed you were studying too hard and forgot to eat, so I purposely brought this back for you.”
Crystal wintermelon dumplings, almond tofu, fried shrimp, calamari, and yam jujube cake. Every snack was fragrant and delectable.
The souls of the three people who were originally starving almost flew out.
“My G.o.d, it"s so delicious.”
“Sure enough, there"s a reason why it"s so expensive X_X.”
“A"Pei, you"re so good to us, I love you the most.”
Pei Yun laughed helplessly: “Alright, eat quickly. It won"t be as fragrant when it cools down."
"En, en." The three little girls turned into tigers in an instant, eating frantically.
“So delicious, hey, another one…”
Pei Yun shook her head and went back to her desk to revise.
However, the scene of the goodbye kiss swirled around her mind.
Pei Yun, calm down. If you continue thinking about it, you"re a goner.
Calm down, calm down……
