Chapter 532: How Could We Let Them Spend Money

~4 min read 729 words

The Zhang family members had all been pricking up their ears just now, so naturally they heard the content of the conversation clearly.

Zhang Dazhu insisted his sister not pay the phone bill: "Sister, Er Zhu's matter has some progress, and there won't be big expenses later; how could I let you pay this phone bill."

Saying this, he firmly handed over the phone bill first, making Liu Chuxue unable to help but look at him with higher regard.

Seeing them, she was much more affectionate than before: "You must have heard; if you want to see the person, you can only do so in three days. I can only help you this far."

The Zhang family thanked Liu Chuxue repeatedly.

Zhang Taozhu held Liu Chuxue's hand: "This has troubled you twice already. There is a state-run restaurant ahead; Miss, please let me treat you to noodles."

Liu Chuxue smiled and politely declined: "Apart from my sister's connection, we are fellow townspeople. I am quite happy to be able to help you. I have already made plans with my colleagues, so there is really no need to waste that money."

Saying this, she even lifted the cloth bag in her hand to prove she was not lying.

She had seen the two-in-one flour buns in their bags; how could she possibly agree? After all, she had heard Zhang Dazhu say earlier that his sister had just finished repairing their house. People in the countryside live on work points, and they don't get much money distributed in a year; how could she let them spend money on her.

After watching them walk far away, Liu Chuxue returned to the factory.

As soon as she entered the canteen, she saw Ji Kunlan and Ning Xiaoyu waving at her: "Liu Chuxue, over here."

Their shout made many people look at Liu Chuxue.

Many male comrades began whispering among themselves: "Sigh, who is that Miss, which department is she from?"

Someone who knew said: "That is the new accountant who just joined the factory's finance department."

"Is she that little accountant who skipped the probation period and went straight to regular employment?"

"Yes, yes, yes, it is her."

"This little accountant is damn beautiful."

"Indeed beautiful. If she were married back as a wife, that would be too wonderful."

"Dreaming on, don't you look at your bear-like appearance."

"What bear-like appearance do I have? I'm still better than you, right?"

"So I have self-awareness and don't indulge in vain hopes."

"Alright, the person is coming over; keep your voices down."

Actually, as she walked over, Liu Chuxue heard their conversation, but since they weren't saying it to your face, there was no need to take it so seriously.

Walking up to Ji Kunlan and the others: "Where is Duan Ruirui?"

Ji Kunlan pointed to the soup serving area: "Over there."

Ji Kunlan pointed to the lunchbox opposite: "Seeing you hadn't come over, I asked Cui the accountant in your office. She said someone was looking for you at the factory gate. After serving the dishes, she served two liang of rice for you, thinking that if you didn't come back, the three of us would share it later."

Liu Chuxue felt a wave of emotion; perhaps because the four of them came from different departments and there was no competitive relationship, they got along very well.

Duan Ruirui returned with the soup and saw Liu Chuxue was back: "Liu Chuxue, do you want some soup?"

Liu Chuxue took out her lunchbox from her shoulder bag: "I'll go get it right now."

Every day the canteen makes some rice soup or vegetable soup and sets it aside for everyone to serve for free; if you go late, it will be gone.

Seeing it was rice soup today, she had been busy all morning and hadn't had time to drink water, plus she had just spoken so much with the Zhang family, so she was indeed a bit thirsty now.

When Liu Chuxue returned and sat down, seeing the salted duck egg on the table, she finally remembered what she had said earlier. Fortunately, she carried her shoulder bag with her, which was perfect for covering up.

She put another lunchbox from her bag into her space and took out a bottle of mushroom beef sauce instead: "Come, taste this; it's sauce my mother stir-fried."
