Chapter 736 Uncle Will Pay the Bill For You
Especially since w.a.n.g Yunzhong"s trolley was filled with vegetables and meat. Shouldn"t they buy these from the supermarket near their home?
However, Jian Ai wouldn"t worry about w.a.n.g Yunzhong. Although she felt strange, she didn"t ask.
w.a.n.g Yunzhong naturally saw the pile of snacks in the cart in front of Jian Ai. He couldn"t help but smile. "Why did you buy so many snacks?"
"The school organized an autumn trip in Liyang County for a few days tomorrow," Jian Ai said calmly, but her tone was cold.
In Jian Ai"s eyes, she would rather w.a.n.g Yunzhong still treat her coldly like before than get used to his flattering smile.
Whether or not he was sincere, everyone knew in their hearts. He was tired from pretending, and so was she.
"Xiao Ai, it"s our turn!" Xia Qinghuan pulled Jian Ai"s hand and leaned towards the cas.h.i.+er.
Seeing this, w.a.n.g Yunzhong quickly followed. "Xiao Ai, go and pack the bags. Uncle will settle the bill for you."
Jian Ai: "…"
Xia Qinghuan was also stunned. Her gaze landed on Jian Ai, as if asking if she would let her uncle pay the bill.
Jian Ai was speechless, but she nodded.
In public, she couldn"t possibly argue with w.a.n.g Yunzhong in front of the cas.h.i.+er because of a few hundred yuan. There were still many people queuing up behind.
The four shopping bags were filled, but they were all snacks. The heaviest were two flashlights. Together, they were only two to three hundred yuan. After all, prices were not high now.
Seeing w.a.n.g Yunzhong take out the cash and pay the bill, Jian Ai said, "Thank you, Uncle."
This was really a rare scene. In her two lifetimes, this was the first time w.a.n.g Yunzhong had spent money on Jian Ai. Usually, she would only receive benefits from w.a.n.g Yunzhong only during the new year via red packets.
However, it was Jiang Chunfen who gave her the money in the red packet, so w.a.n.g Yunzhong didn"t know.
"Why are you standing on ceremony with Uncle?" w.a.n.g Yunzhong smiled. Then, he looked at Jian Ai and said, "Can you carry so many things? Do you want Uncle to drive you back?"
When Xu Qianqian heard this, she couldn"t help but pull w.a.n.g Yunzhong"s arm without batting an eyelid, as if she was afraid that he would drive his niece home.
Jian Ai quickly shook her head. "No need, Uncle. A few of our cla.s.smates came together."
"Alright, be careful when you go out to play." w.a.n.g Yunzhong smiled and nodded. "Uncle will leave first."
Jian Ai nodded and watched w.a.n.g Yunzhong leave expressionlessly.
"Your uncle is divorced?" Xia Qinghuan"s voice suddenly sounded.
Jian Ai was stunned. She looked at Qinghuan in surprise and asked, "How did you know?"
Seeing that she had guessed correctly, Xia Qinghuan couldn"t help but raise her eyebrows smugly. "Isn"t that simple? The woman beside your uncle just now looks to be in her twenties. She can"t be your aunt or his daughter. If she"s his daughter, it"s impossible for her not to greet you.
"She"s holding your uncle"s hand, which means that she"s not a friend or colleague. Using the rule of elimination to eliminate these impossible relations.h.i.+ps, isn"t there only the girlfriend option left?"
When Jian Ai heard this, her eyes lit up as she looked at Xia Qinghuan. "Not bad. You"re so observant."
"Of course!" Xia Qinghuan said and couldn"t help but move closer to Jian Ai. "However, I think your uncle is quite good to you, but you don"t seem to like him?"
"You think he"s quite good to me?" Jian Ai asked with a smile.
Xia Qinghuan nodded without hesitation. He paid the bill for her and was even worried that she would bring too many things home and wanted to send her home. In the end, he didn"t forget to remind her to be careful during the autumn trip.
