"We are doing business!"
Guo Zihang was the type of person who always had a smile for everyone. If he were a bit more handsome, he would certainly be considered a heartthrob. Unfortunately, his looks did not quite make the cut. He could only be considered a Fiery Goblin.
So, when Wang Huiru asked what they were doing, Guo Zihang immediately told her everything about their lunch box business. His words were filled with pride, as if it were something truly impressive.
In fact, Guo Zihang was not wrong. Telling people about this was indeed a major flex.
One must understand that high school students in this era were quite shy. They would get nervous just being asked for directions by a stranger, let alone going out to make money.
Of course, there were some high school students who wanted to experience life and had thoughts of earning money.
However, the most they would do was take a part-time job or hand out flyers.
But Jiang Qin had actually used a middleman strategy to earn several hundred yuan out of thin air. He had played the game of buying low and selling high. Who would not be dazed upon hearing such a story?
The father of Wang Huiru was a primary school teacher. His monthly salary was only three thousand yuan. After deducting taxes and insurance, he made less than one hundred yuan a day.
Although the amount of money earned cannot be measured by averages alone, the fact that Jiang Qin could earn two hundred and seventy yuan in a single day was a massive shock to their worldview.
Guo Zihang vividly described how Jiang Qin coolly tossed a cigarette to the internet cafe manager and sold a single address for two hundred yuan. As she listened, the image of Jiang Qin grew significantly taller in the heart of Wang Huiru.
"Jiang Qin, why did you suddenly start learning how to do business?"
"I am saving money to marry a wife," Jiang Qin replied casually.
Wang Huiru let out a giggle at his words. "You are starting to save now? Just how expensive is the wife you want to marry?"
The corners of the mouth of Jiang Qin curled up slightly. "That depends on how many I marry. The more I marry, the more money I will need."
"You want to marry several? In your dreams!"
Afterward, Wang Huiru chatted with Guo Zihang about filling out university applications. her tone was full of longing for university life.
Jiang Qin remained in the position of an observer. He had a smile on his face but did not speak again.
He had already experienced university life once. He did not have much longing for it, and thus he had no desire to interrupt.
Even though many of the fantasies Guo Zihang and Wang Huiru had about university were incredibly wrong, he did not act like an elitist and correct them.
Life only has meaning when you experience it yourself. No one has the right to arrogantly break the illusions of others. Even if you truly know a lot, you must consider whether the other person actually wants to know.
During this process, Chu Siqi watched Jiang Qin with a cold gaze and a depressed expression.
From the moment she rejected the confession of Jiang Qin, she felt as if he had become a completely different person.
He no longer looked for her on QQ. He did not send morning or night greetings. He stopped leaving secret messages on her Qzone. Even his profile picture and status had changed.
It was as if they had become total strangers.
The most outrageous part was that she had been looking at his Qzone yesterday on a whim. Suddenly, she was forced out of the page. When she tried to enter again, she found that his [Qzone Locked].
This made her feel incredibly frustrated. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she became. She had pretended to be casual and sent him a message, asking why he locked his Qzone and whether it was locked for everyone or just for her.
As a result, Jiang Qin had not replied to her with even a single symbol until now.
But on what grounds?
You are the one who likes me. It is not that I like you. Why did you suddenly stop messaging me? Why did you stop letting me into your Qzone?
I never explicitly said that I hated you, nor did I tell you to stop chasing me. Why did you decide to give up on your own?
At this thought, Chu Siqi could not help but remember that afternoon when she took the bus home. She had encountered Jiang Qin on the side of the road and thought he had come to apologize.
She had already planned it out. If the attitude of Jiang Qin was good enough and he admitted he was just being stubborn, she might have given him a small chance.
But she did not expect him to just give a slight nod before disappearing on his bicycle.
Teenage girls have very sensitive hearts and a strong sense of pride. When treated this way by someone who once pursued them bitterly, anyone would be full of resentment.
Therefore, Chu Siqi had thrown a tantrum when she got home and swore she would never say another word to Jiang Qin!
Even if Jiang Qin apologized or begged, she would not show even a hint of mercy.
But until just now, when she encountered Jiang Qin on the street again, Chu Siqi could not help but start imagining things.
She thought to herself that as long as Jiang Qin took the initiative to say hello and humbly admitted he was wrong, she could coldly give him a few replies.
However, what she did not expect was that Jiang Qin simply stood there calmly from beginning to end. Aside from chatting a bit with Wang Huiru, he did not even look at her.
The more Chu Siqi thought about it, the angrier she became. Her chest heaved up and down. She subconsciously began to squeeze the arm of Wang Huiru.
Feeling the pain, Wang Huiru snapped back to reality. She glanced at her best friend and then at Jiang Qin. She suddenly remembered the emotional entanglement between the two of them on the day of the College Entrance Examination.
No wonder these two had not spoken.
Jiang Qin must be so insecure that he does not dare to speak to the goddess who rejected him, right?
Actually, the impression Wang Huiru had of Jiang Qin was quite good.
Especially after hearing the praise from Guo Zihang, she felt that Jiang Qin possessed a kind of maturity that other boys lacked.
So, she planned to help Jiang Qin. Perhaps she could facilitate a good match?
"Jiang Qin!"
"Hmm?"
A hint of craftiness flashed in the eyes of Wang Huiru. "You just said you were earning money to marry a wife. Were you hinting at our Siqi?"
The face of Jiang Qin turned pale. Even his right eyelid began to twitch. "Big sister, please spare me."
"Is that not the case?"
"My temple is too small; I do not have the fortune to enjoy such a blessing."
Upon hearing this sentence, Chu Siqi completely lost her composure. She gritted her teeth together as a layer of mist appeared in her eyes. "Jiang Qin, what exactly do you mean?"
Jiang Qin waved his hand. "It is nothing. I am leaving. You girls continue playing."
"You are not allowed to go! I did not say you could leave, so you cannot go!"
Jiang Qin waved his hand as if he had not heard her. He walked to the side of the road and got on his bicycle. Then, without looking back, he merged into the crowd on the street.
Having been reborn, there was no need to explain too much to someone he would no longer be associated with. Therefore, he did not even bother to speak.
'Stay true to the original intention and remember the mission.' Did you think I was joking when I said that?
Chu Siqi stood in place. Looking at his receding back, she felt extremely aggrieved. Tears began to overflow from her eyes.
She was not like those heroines in cliché novels who suddenly realized they liked Jiang Qin and felt regret.
She simply felt as if she were being looked down upon by Jiang Qin. It was as if she were something disgusting that he wanted to avoid at all costs.
Seeing her best friend crying silently, Wang Huiru was instantly flustered.
Was it not her friend who rejected the confession of Jiang Qin?
Why was it that Jiang Qin had left, and her friend was the one crying? What kind of drama was this?
