Chapter 69: ..., got rich

Past events flashed through his mind one by one. Li Heng walked into the school canteen and exchanged all the money in his pocket for soda.

Bottled!

Seeing this, Yang Yingwen exclaimed in surprise: "Li Heng, are you crazy? Spending all your money, not living anymore?"

Seeing many students in the canteen attracted by the exclamation, Li Heng handed her a bottle of soda and said helplessly in a low voice:

"I said old rag, can you stop shouting? Today is a big day for me, it's of great significance, you don't understand."

Yang Yingwen had long been used to him calling her old rag when arguing, and didn't have much reaction to this, glaring at him:

"What's there to understand? Isn't it because of Song Yu? Do you really think everyone is a fool?"

Li Heng couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her and asked clearly: "Stop chattering like a village sister-in-law. I've already bought this soda, it's impossible to return it, just ask if you want to drink it or not?"

Yang Yingwen grabbed the soda angrily: "Drink! Why not drink? Anyway, it's bought by a fool, and I don't have to pay."

Li Heng stuffed the second bottle of soda to Xiao Feng: "Here, we are fellow villagers and friends, and we are so familiar. Don't learn from someone, eating my food and scolding me."

Xiao Feng smiled and took the soda generously. While opening the cap, she said: "The scholarship won't be issued until the end of the month. If you don't have living expenses in the middle, you can come to me for a meal."

Li Heng gave a thumbs up: "Bright! Atmospheric! I like your generous personality like this."

He gave the third bottle of soda to Song Yu.

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, Song Yu took it silently, didn't say much, and everything was in silence.

Before parting, Li Heng asked Yang Yingwen to take a bottle of soda back to Xiao Han.

But Yang Yingwen looked at Song Yu next to her, thought for a while, and refused: "You are so generous to treat guests for the first time, you should give it to her yourself, or you can treat her alone next time."

Hearing this, Li Heng instantly understood the potential meaning of this earthy girl: compared to a bottle of soda, Xiao Han might care more about you giving it to her yourself.

Thinking of the reason, he took back the soda and said: "That's fine, then I'll treat her alone next time."

Back in the classroom, Li Heng distributed all the soda in his hands, and friends like Mai Sui, Zhang Zhiyong, and Liu Li all had a share.

During the first Chinese class, Li Heng, who was listening carefully, suddenly received a notebook from his beautiful desk mate.

There was a line of words on the notebook, and 10 yuan was tucked into the pages.

The content of the words was: The scholarship won't be issued until the end of the month, you use this money first.

Regardless of whether the money would be used or not, Li Heng happily tucked it into his pocket.

He picked up a pen and asked: Do I need to return this money?

Song Yu glanced at him with faint smiles in her eyes and wrote: You don't have to return it, treat me to a meal when you get rich in the future.

Li Heng asked: In your eyes, what is the definition standard of "rich"?

Song Yu pondered for a while and replied: There is no fixed standard, it is when you think you have succeeded.

"Li Heng, come out for a moment."

Just as Li Heng picked up his pen and was about to reply further, the classroom door suddenly opened, and the English teacher waved to him happily.

Putting down the pen, he hurried to the corridor outside and called out affectionately: "Teacher."

Scanning him up and down like an infrared ray, the English teacher crossed her arms and asked: "Did you get the special scholarship?"

"Mm." Li Heng nodded.

Wang Runwen: "First time, how does it feel?"

Li Heng replied: "Especially great!"

"When the scholarship is issued, remember to treat the teacher to a meal." If it were in the past, Wang Runwen wouldn't say such things.

But now, this kid is a rich man, with so much money that it's almost catching up with the small treasury left by his parents.

Li Heng expressed happily: "Okay, treat the respected teacher to egg fried rice, with an egg."

This reminded Wang Runwen of the last time, she touched her glasses with her right fingertip and smiled: "It's not good for a big man to be so vengeful."

The two were too familiar, Li Heng joked without burden: "It's okay not to be vengeful, then you have to accompany me to eat egg fried rice."

Seeing this kid was impervious to oil and salt, the English teacher changed the subject: "Your teacher's wife told me that you want to put your photo with Song Yu's?"

This teacher's wife refers to the Chinese teacher's wife.

The teacher's wife and the English teacher are good friends, often walking after meals on campus, Wang Runwen is not surprised at all that she knows this.

Seeing him default, the English teacher shook her head, pouted and said: "I denied it!"

Li Heng was anxious, shouting: "Teacher, how can you do this?"

The English teacher tilted her head, her hair hanging in the air like a black waterfall, and asked amusedly:

"Why can't I do this? As your teacher, I have an obligation to stop you from jumping into the fire pit of puppy love."

Li Heng didn't have good words, "I'm almost eighteen, I'm an adult, and you still manage my emotional life, teacher, you..."

At this point, he deliberately lowered his voice and said: "Teacher, you are maliciously stopping me and Song Yu like this, don't you really have selfish motives?"

Wang Runwen frowned, looking at this face, wishing she could just kick him.

However, because so many people in the classroom could see, she held back, pressed her full chest, stuffed the money order she was holding into him, and popped a word from her teeth: "Get out!"

"Eh!"

Li Heng responded, looked at the money order in his hand, it was from "Harvest" magazine, and immediately returned to the classroom in high spirits.

"Li Heng, what's the matter, so happy?" Passing by Sun Manning, the girl asked quietly.

Li Heng replied casually: "Of course it's because I got rich."

"Pfft!" Sun Manning didn't take this seriously at all and continued to attend class.

For money, Li Heng never made a mistake. After checking the money order three times and confirming it was correct, he began to write on the notebook: Does this count as a kind of success?

After writing, he put the notebook and money order together on the Chinese textbook of his desk mate.

Song Yu didn't pay much attention at first, but when she picked up the money order and saw it clearly, she was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head to check again, checking seriously.

The remittance amount shows: 4050 yuan.

After a long while, she calmed down her various psychological activities and asked curiously: The remittance from "Harvest" magazine to you?

Li Heng picked up the pen: Yes, do you know this "magazine"?

Song Yu wrote: I know, Dad loves literature and has subscribed to "People's Literature" and "Harvest" all year round.

Her father is a university professor.

Her mother is also a university teacher, but a music teacher. Both parents are senior intellectuals, with soil for literature to take root and sprout.

Li Heng is not surprised by this.

Regarding writing, he didn't intend to hide it from Song Yu and Xiao Han.

He explained immediately: I wrote a novel some time ago and submitted it to "Harvest," and it passed the review by luck.

After taking the notebook and reading this short sentence, Song Yu fell into a long contemplation.

Li Heng secretly observed her micro-expressions, wanting to show off a little.

But unfortunately, after observing for a long time, the expected picture didn't happen. She always maintained a quiet and indifferent appearance, making him feel a sense of powerlessness.

For a long time, Song Yu, who had returned from the money order, picked up the pen again and wrote: Is it the novel you wrote some time ago?

Li Heng replied: Yes.

Song Yu asked: What is your pen name for submission?
