Chapter 1393

~8 min read 1,443 words

Huo Xueying was quite accepting of Song Tan's beauty.

After all, a girl's appearance depends on her spirit! Song Tan doesn't have to go to work now, so isn't it normal for her to become better-looking? As for herself, if she keeps working this crappy job, she's going to grow liver spots!

Therefore, she attributed everything to that damn job. At this moment, she couldn't help but touch Song Tan's cheeks again; they were slippery and tender, making her hum again: "When can I stop working! Even your hair has become thicker!"

Song Tan was curious: "Didn't you keep shouting about changing jobs before? Why haven't you left yet?"

Huo Xueying was so resentful: "You kept saying you were changing jobs before, but you didn't leave either... Whatever your reason is, that's my reason too!"

When it comes down to it, capitalists are all the same in this world!

The skinners here are inhuman, and the skinners over there still need to be broken in. Better the devil you know than the devil you don't... Anyway, she already had her own work mode; it was just like a married middle-aged woman—just muddle along!

Then she looked at Lu Chuan with sparkling eyes.

Song Tan immediately understood: "My boyfriend, Lu Chuan—isn't he very good-looking!"

Her pride was evident in her expression, and Huo Xueying nodded frantically: "Good-looking! Good-looking! Hello Lu Chuan, I'm Huo Xueying, and this is my boyfriend Zheng Qu."

Standing together, Huo Xueying had originally felt that Zheng Qu at least had decent features and a good figure without being fat, but at this moment, she froze and turned her head away—

No other reason, the contrast was too tragic!

She couldn't help but touch her own face again... If she and Song Tan stood together, it would probably have the same effect!

Forget it, forget it! No one dislikes anyone! Anyway, the fat water didn't flow into outsiders' fields; Song Tan is her good friend and also her boyfriend's classmate, so her side didn't lose out!

With her emotions bolstered, the four of them sat down happily.

And after Zheng Qu sat down, he really couldn't help it and typed a series of "Holy crap" in the group, making everyone curious:

"Class monitor, what's going on? Didn't you say you were taking your girlfriend to treat Song Tan to dinner today?"

"Exactly! What does our class beauty look like now?"

"There's gossip! Tell us fast! Waiting!"

"Don't just say holy crap, tell us!"

"Where are you?!"

Everyone called out, but Zheng Qu had already put down his phone, watching Huo Xueying unpack the things Song Tan brought, exclaiming every time she checked one.

Song Tan actually didn't bring too many things. The first thing she gave was a bag of tea leaves, and Huo Xueying was already going crazy: "Ahhhhh, is this really for me? Is this appropriate?!"

Song Tan smiled: "Then order two more good dishes to treat me later!"

Huo Xueying was moved to death: "No matter how much I order, it won't compare to your own..."

Her boyfriend Zheng Qu watched from the side, always feeling something was strange.

Like, his girlfriend... was she being too fawning toward Song Tan?

That bag of tea leaves could weigh at most one tael; it was really just a small box inside a tea box, and he didn't know what she was so excited about.

Next was the next item: "Ahhhhh, pickled green peaches!!! I couldn't even buy them! My mouth is watering already—hold it, hold it, I can't eat them now!"

A plain plastic jar filled with tender little hairy peaches; they were very cute, but the taste was probably hard to compliment. Was this thing worth such a fuss?

Zheng Qu didn't understand and was full of confusion.

Finally, he looked at Lu Chuan's face and attributed all of this to the fact that their looks were great enough that his girlfriend was blinded by beauty. Never mind tea leaves or green peaches; even if it were a handful of dogtail grass, she would hold it in her arms.

After that was a box of roasted rice.

Plain, charred, crispy, and fragrant roasted rice. Zheng Qu sniffed: It was indeed quite fragrant.

Song Tan also explained: "You know, my family doesn't have much this season. We haven't sold any goods properly since spring began. The previous green peaches were all contracted by others... I thought about it and packed some roasted rice for you. Chew on it when you have nothing to do; it's good for your stomach."

Huo Xueying was so resentful: "Eating a little bit every day is good for the stomach, but do you think I should choose to eat until I'm stuffed or make it last?"

To be precise, this isn't controlled by the brain; it's controlled by her instincts!

Song Tan laughed "pfft": "Then just leave it to your boyfriend to keep, and have him grab you a handful every day."

Huo Xueying shook her head frantically, and Zheng Qu smiled awkwardly.

Even though he was smooth and sophisticated, at this moment, after thinking and thinking, he could only squeeze out a dry sentence: "Roasted rice is good, roasted rice is good. Things made on a farmhouse wood stove are just fragrant, full of sentiment."

Lu Chuan twitched the corner of his mouth on the side, couldn't help but look at him again, and held back his laughter.

If nothing else, Huo Xueying's mouth was quite tight; she hadn't shared any of the good stuff with her boyfriend at all!

But Huo Xueying nodded, not doubting Song Tan's sentiment at all. Finally, after digging out hand cream and a jar of last year's watermelon jam, she was about to stick to her:

"Song Tan!!! Why are you so good!!!"

That hand cream was just a plain white tube with a label! One look and you knew it wasn't bought! Song Tan even said it was made by their own family!

How outrageous! If this were face cream or something, he would have had to stop Huo Xueying from putting it on her face easily! But his girlfriend was clearly already crazy, and at this moment, she piously stuffed the jar of hand cream into her bag and said solemnly: "Wait until I get home tonight, wash my hands clean, and prepare gloves before applying this! I'll definitely wear them all night!"

Zheng Qu:...

He felt a bit wistful.

During the New Year, when he was pursuing Huo Xueying, he sent a set of very popular big-brand hand cream, and she hadn't been this solemn!

That hand cream came in a box of six tubes; now they were in the car, the office drawer, and her bag, and Huo Xueying would squeeze some for anyone she saw... And now?

Her still-fresh boyfriend felt a sense of crisis, and at this moment, he reached out his hand: "What good stuff is so precious? Let me try it quickly!"

Huo Xueying immediately pressed her bag tight: "Go away! Your hands are rough; men don't deserve it!"

Zheng Qu:... His emotions were shattered! He wasn't a bricklayer at a construction site; how were his hands rough?!

As for that bottle of homemade watermelon jam, the other party carefully put it back into the bag and didn't let him touch it at all.

At this moment, a boyfriend with sensitive skin shattered gently.

He watched helplessly as his girlfriend stuck sweetly to someone else. At this moment, he took out his phone in gloom and found that the group chat had already been built up for hundreds of floors.

Scrolling up casually, the topic had shifted from curiosity about Song Tan to curiosity about her boyfriend, then finally to chatting about the past, sighing at how they were getting old, followed by the girls in the class showing off their beautiful photos, and the boys talking about their cars and stocks without a trace...

Zheng Qu sighed gloomily: He should have been one of these mortals, but at this very moment, staring at his own face reflected in the phone screen, and then looking at the god-like couple sitting opposite...

To use his girlfriend's common words, they weren't even on the same layer.

He couldn't even muster half a bit of jealousy, only looking up in awe.

So his fingers moved, and he sighed in the group: "Song Tan was right not to want to fall in love in college... A basket of rotten apricots is not as good as one immortal peach!"

"I didn't mean that everyone is a rotten apricot; I was just using a metaphor."
