Chapter 433: The World of the Rich and Beautiful
Xia Nuannuan took her bag from Qin Tian's hands, opened it, and took out a small wallet. Then, amidst the stunned gazes of the people around them, she pulled out a stack of red bills.
"Brother, is this enough? If not, there are more red envelopes inside."
She handed the stack of bills to Qin Tian and asked with a sweet smile.
"Use this for now; we'll talk if it's not enough."
Qin Tian took the stack of bills, feeling both amused and helpless. Judging by the thickness, it had to be at least three or four thousand.
"Is this the world of the rich and beautiful?"
Tang Heng stared blankly at Tang Wen, who had walked to the side.
"Don't look at me. My dad gives me at most one or two bills for pocket money. This is my first time seeing this too, alright?"
Tang Wen said with a strange expression.
Her father had been in business for many years and now had a car, a house, and savings, so they could be considered a wealthy family, but her own pocket money was at most a few hundred yuan.
Of course, that was also because she was still young.
Xia Nuannuan's extravagant actions right now left her stunned.
Liao Juan, on the other hand, looked as calm as usual, as if she were already used to it.
It wasn't that she often saw Xia Nuannuan spending money recklessly; on the contrary, such occasions were rare. It was just that, to her, any shocking move made by this couple, Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan, seemed perfectly normal.
"Brother Heng, let's go. Let's go exchange for game tokens."
Qin Tian shouted to Tang Heng.
"Alright!"
Tang Heng nodded in a hurry and followed closely, heading toward the counter with him.
The surrounding crowd watched this scene and realized these two were playing for real, so they gathered around.
Those who had friends nearby quickly made calls to summon them.
Although they had all received New Year's money a couple of days ago, free things were always the best!
Besides, it was a free gift from a beauty; who wouldn't want to take advantage of that?
"Sister Nuannuan, why go through all this trouble?"
Tang Wen asked, full of curiosity.
Liao Juan also looked at Xia Nuannuan with a puzzled expression. Having money was one thing, but spending it so recklessly didn't seem like her style!
Xia Nuannuan did as Qin Tian often did to her, raising her hand to pat Tang Wen's little head, and smiled gently: "Brother prepared New Year red envelopes for all his cousins, but I didn't expect to be hanging out with you, so I didn't prepare any. I thought of this way to give you a gift."
As she spoke, she pointed her finger toward the prize redemption area by the counter.
"Once we have enough prize tickets later, you can pick whatever prize you want from over there."
Hearing this, Tang Wen and Liao Juan were both dumbfounded.
"Sister Nuannuan, you don't have to do this. Really, I feel too embarrassed."
Tang Wen waved her hands in a panic.
"Brother and the others have already gone, and the word is out. We can't go back on our word, can we?"
Xia Nuannuan asked with a smile.
"This..."
Tang Wen was flattered and didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Just let her give it to you. She isn't short on money. If she doesn't get this gift into your hands, she might not be able to sleep tonight."
Liao Juan chimed in with a smile.
"Right, right."
Xia Nuannuan nodded repeatedly.
"Alright then, Sister Nuannuan, thank you. You are truly too kind."
After thanking her with emotion, Tang Wen hugged Xia Nuannuan excitedly.
"Big sister, is this your boyfriend's younger sister?"
A young girl of about fifteen or sixteen looked at Xia Nuannuan and asked with a smile.
Xia Nuannuan looked up at her and nodded with a hum.
"Sigh, why don't I have a brother and sister-in-law like you guys!"
The young girl sighed with envy.
Her best friend beside her nodded in agreement, pouted, and said: "Take my older brother, for example—he's my own brother, yet all he knows is how to tease me and find ways to trick me out of my pocket money."
"Hehe... my brother and sister-in-law are one of a kind in this world."
Tang Wen held one of Xia Nuannuan's arms with both hands, showing off with a bright smile.
The envy on the two young girls' faces was plain to see.
"Look at my brother and sister-in-law, aren't they a handsome man and a beautiful woman? They are a perfect match, aren't they?"
Tang Wen chatted with them with a bright smile, taking the opportunity to shower them with flattery.
Hearing this, the two young girls nodded vigorously in agreement; they had been discussing this very thing not far away just a moment ago.
The attractiveness of this couple was too high. Not only that, they gave off the feeling of a match made in heaven; just standing together, the air around them seemed to be filled with a pink atmosphere.
"Let me tell you, my brother and sister-in-law were desk-mates in their senior year of high school, and last year they both got into Jiang University."
Tang Wen lowered her voice slightly and showed off with a beaming smile.
"Oh my god!"
The two young girls exclaimed, casting looks full of shock and envy toward Xia Nuannuan.
What kind of fairy-tale romance from a sweet romance novel or TV drama was this? Did it actually exist in reality?
The key was that those novels and dramas often had a twist to make things miserable.
For example, something happens during the college entrance exam, and the male and female leads fail to realize their dream of going to the same university, only starting to be sweet again after reuniting years later.
But the perfect version was actually appearing right before their eyes.
Xia Nuannuan blushed, feeling a bit embarrassed, and nudged Tang Wen with her elbow.
Tang Wen turned her head to look at her, immediately understood, smiled, and winked playfully at the two young girls, signaling that she couldn't say any more.
"The game tokens are here."
Suddenly, a voice came.
The crowd parted to the sides, and Qin Tian and Tang Heng walked over, each carrying a basket stacked high with game tokens.
The three of them hurried over to help.
After they placed the game tokens at their feet, they prepared to start distributing them.
First were the two young girls who had just been chatting with Tang Wen; Xia Nuannuan generously handed them a whole basket.
"Big sister, isn't it fifty tokens for everyone?"
One of the young girls asked in surprise.
"It's fine, take this whole thing and go play."
Xia Nuannuan said with a smile.
"Wow, thank you, big sister. You are truly too kind."
The young girl cheered as she took the basket of tokens, glanced at Qin Tian, and said with a giggle: "I wish you two eternal happiness and sweetness."
"Big sister, don't worry, we promise to get you as many prize tickets as possible."
The other girl said with a serious expression.
"Thank you!"
Xia Nuannuan nodded happily.
Afterward, the two girls left the crowd in high spirits to find a game machine.
"What's going on?"
Qin Tian asked, looking blankly at Xia Nuannuan.
"Nothing, let's keep handing out the tokens!"
Xia Nuannuan said with a smile, brushing it off.
"If you hand them out like that, no amount will ever be enough!"
"It won't be, the rest will all be fifty each."
"That's good then!"
Qin Tian nodded, not understanding the situation.
Immediately after, the group began distributing the game tokens together.
"Don't rush, don't rush, there's enough for everyone!"
Seeing the crowd around them starting to swarm, Qin Tian hurriedly shouted to control the scene.
Before long, the remaining baskets of game tokens were all distributed. Of course, the money from earlier hadn't been fully spent, so Qin Tian gave the money to his second cousin Tang Heng to buy more tokens to continue distributing.
Because of Xia Nuannuan's all-expenses-paid event, the arcade became even livelier, and more and more people rushed over after hearing the news.
