Chapter 231

It was still that narrow single bed, and the two were inevitably squeezed together, but this time, nothing happened.

Through the light passing through the gap in the curtains, Qin Qin Zhixiu gazed quietly at the girl close at hand.

Sunday, after Qin Qin Zhixiu left, He He Lele suddenly felt the room was much bigger. She turned on the computer to prepare to record audiobooks, but heard the tiny kitten's milky, delicate calls in her ear. Hongdou stared with round golden pupils, looked at her, and then turned its head to look around, as if it were looking for Qin Qin Zhixiu.

"Meow..."

"Meow..."

Every few seconds, Hongdou would call out softly. He He Lele got up, picked up Hongdou, and stroked it gently—she hadn't expected Qin Qin Zhixiu's charm to be not only lethal to all ages but also to all species!

But it was hard to record with Hongdou calling out all the time! What to do? He He Lele subconsciously looked around again, then took out that photo album of Qin Qin Zhixiu, opened it, and placed it in front of Hongdou. She was just trying it out, but she hadn't expected Hongdou to lie directly on the photo album, not moving or calling out anymore.

"Perverted cat!" He He Lele laughed and tapped Hongdou's little head.

The cash was empty, but there was still more than forty yuan in the bank card, which had survived because the ATM couldn't withdraw small change. He He Lele went to the supermarket to buy a few packs of cheap noodles, then took the opportunity to walk around the campus, wrote down a few part-time job phone numbers, and continued to return to the room to record audio.

It's okay, everything will be fine!

Bread will be there, and eggs will be there too! Right, remember to pay back the money for the fire extinguisher and the grilled skewers at the barbecue shop.

Thinking of the fire extinguisher, He He Lele couldn't help but smile. During those most difficult years in middle school, she read many psychology and inspirational books. She remembered seeing in a book at that time that "no matter whether what you are experiencing now is joy or pain, everything is a wealth for your future self." At that time, she very maliciously blackened that sentence. Even if she could understand the base nature people showed toward her, she really didn't think those things like being discriminated against, bullied, slandered, and maliciously defamed would become her "wealth."

But thinking about it now, maybe that sentence is right. At least... precisely because she had been sprayed by someone with a fire extinguisher, she would know that besides extinguishing fires, that thing could also "extinguish people."

Taking the resurrected Versace phone and flipping to Mu Wei's number, He He Lele's heart was filled with eternal gratitude. Pain only becomes wealth when it ends. Thank this man for erasing that spider web that had been layered for more than ten years for her.

"Hello?"

"Hi! Missed me?"

Listening to Mu Wei's habitually lazy, flirtatious tone, He He Lele didn't know what to say for a moment. She had just wanted to thank him and subconsciously pressed the dial button. By the time she regretted it, the call had already gone through and was hard to hang up.

"Sorry, I left in a hurry the day before yesterday."

"Yeah, indeed, not even a goodbye kiss."

"... Is, is your friend okay?"

"You mean Caesar? Heh... he is trying every possible way to join Chinese nationality."

"..."

"Want to ask if you dare, to love me like you said, like me being crazy for love, in the end, what will you think..."

Hearing this casual yet affectionate male version of "Crazy for Love" for the first time, He He Lele's heart couldn't help but accelerate. "But, Ren Ren Lingyu has someone she likes. Caesar like this... will get hurt."

"Yes, but if you get hurt, the wound will always heal. But if you regret because of giving up, opportunities and time will never return."

"... Yes." He He Lele looked out the window. The sun was just right, and every day was precious.

"He Lele."

"Hm?"

"... I want to give you a good hug."

"..."

"Don't force yourself, pretend I didn't say anything."

"No..." She had said it before, no matter what reason he helped her for, she acknowledged this favor. Looking at those ancient costume dramas and ancient novels before, she always felt that ancient women who would "repay great kindness with their bodies" were stupid and looked down on themselves too much. But now, being in their shoes, she realized that being able to give something back is far easier than living with a favor she couldn't afford to repay.

Author's Note:

Guess many girls will think the next part is Mu Wei's meat? Hehehehe~~ That's not necessarily true!

Love you all!!! Mwah!!!

☆, (10 Fresh Coins) Chapter 202: Say It Again

Monday, the beginning of the week. Due to a temporary shortage of people at the call center, He He Lele and two other newcomers started work early. The newcomers, including He He Lele herself, felt very surprised, because last Friday she had just given a tragic demonstration that made the lecturer and supervisor furious. After this weekend, she was the first to start work; it was too strange no matter how you looked at it.

"She must have connections, right?"

"Shouldn't be. I've seen her resume; she graduated from a key university. If she had connections, why come to do customer service?"

"That's not necessarily true. You don't know, do you? The HR manager of the ×Xin Group originally did customer service here. After half a year, she went to the group, a straight helicopter ride. In the end, others found out she was Chairman Liao's niece."

"Oh... whatever, I'm just here to do my part."

"That's true, hehe."

Abnormal things naturally become topics of discussion. Although He He Lele was also strange about the supervisor's decision, she didn't intend to ask anything. After a short adaptation, she got used to the rhythm of customer service work. The open working environment and relatively closed working state—very suitable for her.

At noon, she heated up the rice she brought using the company's microwave. He He Lele walked alone to the central garden not far from the company to eat. It wasn't that she didn't want to mingle with others, but because she had no money to buy groceries, her side dish was cheap and appetizing pickled radish, and this situation would continue for another week. Although she didn't think this was anything shameful, she didn't want to explain too much, nor did she want others to look at her with strange eyes, so she simply avoided it.
