On the morning of the 26th of June, the morning sun was shining, and the air in the university was cool. However, when the sun rose, the ground soon became hot.
Downstairs of the female dormitory, girls walked out of the door in groups of three to five, talking about the upcoming exam and daily gossip. Their laughter exuded youthful vitality.
Several boys stood at the bottom of the stairs, staring at the crowd. They were waiting for their girlfriends.
No matter how the girls looked, the moment they saw their boyfriends, their faces bloomed with joy, as if it was the most beautiful color in the world.
Oh, the taste of love.
"Youchu, can I copy your notes from 'Western Economics'? I have a hunch that currency knowledge will be a big question."
Hu Linyu was wearing a pair of breeches, walking with her short legs while talking.
The girl next to her was very tall, and she was the kind of existence that could be noticed at first glance in the crowd. However, it seemed that the girl was not confident enough, and she always lowered her head out of habit.
An ordinary small cloth bag was hanging on her shoulder, and the bottom of the bag was worn like gauze. One could even see the edges and corners of the book. It could be seen that the girl's financial condition was very ordinary.
Hu Linyu was very talkative, and she immediately changed the topic. "Today is your birthday. Can Chen Hansheng, a busy man, make it back in time?"
The girl shook her head. "He didn't tell me."
Her tone was gentle, and there was a hint of naivety.
"Hey, why can't you even know the whereabouts of your boyfriend?"
Hu Linyu was a little disappointed. "But it's okay. Our dormitory has already agreed to help you. If Chen Hansheng comes back, we'll ask him to help pay the bill …"
She stopped halfway, because a boy was sitting on the wooden chair opposite her with his legs crossed. He stared at the coming and going crowd with a smile. He was not reserved at all.
It was Chen Hansheng, the star entrepreneur of the university, and the vice president of the student union.
"Your boyfriend."
Hu Linyu nudged the girl with her shoulder.
Only then did the girl raise her head, revealing a charming face. She was actually so beautiful.
When she saw Chen Hansheng, her peach blossom eyes were as bright as the rain. This was Shen Youchu, the most beautiful girl in the class of 2002.
Hu Linyu was also happy, but she suddenly thought of something and said to Chen Hansheng in a panic, "You can't take Youchu away in the morning. I still need her for my revision. You can take her out in the afternoon."
Chen Hansheng was stunned. He thought to himself, "What does your revision have to do with me?" But Hu Linyu held Shen Youchu's arm "overbearingly", so he couldn't do anything about it.
Therefore, Shen Youchu and Hu Linyu spent the whole morning reviewing their lessons in the library while Chen Hansheng slept next to them.
Shen Youchu occasionally raised her head and saw that there was one more person beside her. Her heart seemed to have a heavy sense of happiness.
… ….
After eating lunch, Chen Hansheng brought Shen Youchu to Yiwu Commodity Mall to buy clothes.
The clothes here were of commoner price and had a variety of styles. There were also big brands like Adidas and Nike, which basically satisfied the purchase needs of Jiangling District's university students.
"You can choose whatever you want today. If there is nothing that you like here, we will go to Dongshan Department Store."
Chen Hansheng said straightforwardly.
Shen Youchu smiled gently, but she didn't take the initiative and just followed behind Chen Hansheng.
In a clothing store, Chen Hansheng held up a skirt and asked Shen Youchu to try it out, but she shook her head and refused.
Shen Youchu's dressing was very conservative. In summer, she would still wear long pants and would never reveal her ankles or calves.
Probably only on the day of her graduation photo would she wear a borrowed skirt to commemorate it.
In the Nike store, Chen Hansheng asked Shen Youchu to try a short-sleeved shirt. She looked at the price tag and looked at Chen Hansheng carefully.
Chen Hansheng understood in his heart that Shen Youchu felt that it was too expensive and didn't want to buy it.
"No matter how rich you are, you can't change your habits." Chen Hansheng said quietly.
Probably because of the different family conditions, Xiao Rongyu would usually look at the style and color first before looking at the matching. The price was actually secondary.
Shen Youchu would always look at the price first and buy one or two ordinary clothes within the range that she expected.
In the end, in a store called "Women's Wear", Shen Youchu chose an orange cotton short-sleeved shirt and white sneakers. The two of them added up to only 60 RMB.
Chen Hansheng curled his lips. Generally, the stores called "Women's Wear", "Fine Clothes Shop", "Fashionable Beauty" and other fancy names were basically random brands. It was only because it was cheap that it was very popular among college students.
However, today was Shen Youchu's birthday. Everything had to be done according to her wishes. Chen Hansheng picked up the clothes and prepared to pay the bill.
Unexpectedly, Shen Youchu gently poked Chen Hansheng again.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Hansheng turned his head in surprise. He thought that Shen Youchu had thought it through and wanted to be extravagant on her birthday.
"You, you can go and bargain, okay?"
Shen Youchu said with a red face.
"What?"
Chen Hansheng thought in his heart, I have a net worth of millions. Is it appropriate for me to bargain for something that costs 60 RMB?
"Why don't you go?"
Chen Hansheng asked back.
Shen Youchu lowered her head shyly, "I, I don't know how to speak."
"You know."
Chen Hansheng couldn't help but smile. He gently pinched Shen Youchu's rosy cheeks. She pouted her lips and looked at Chen Hansheng. Her eyes were full of trust.
"Okay, I'll go and bargain."
Chen Hansheng took the clothes to the counter. The boss was a middle-aged woman in her forties. She looked quite kind.
"Hello, can you make these two clothes cheaper?" Chen Hansheng asked.
The boss had already expected that a college student would bargain. The marked price was also inflated. She immediately said, "55 RMB for two."
"It's only 5 RMB less. Can it be lower?"
"I can't, handsome. This is the lowest price."
"Is 50 RMB okay? I only have 50 RMB with me. We are college students. We don't have much money."
"Okay then. Anyway, I don't expect to earn much."
The boss finally agreed, "Next time, introduce more students to me."
This was the basic process of bargaining. The bosses in the country seemed to be similar. They all seemed to have a set of similar lines.
Chen Hansheng said perfunctorily while taking out his wallet. He couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded.
His wallet was full of 100 RMB notes. At this time, he was embarrassed to ask Shen Youchu for money. Because she was looking at him with "admiration". She probably felt that it was great to be able to bargain for 10 RMB.
"Boss, change."
Chen Hansheng forced himself to hand over the 100 RMB note.
When the boss saw the 100 RMB note, the corners of her mouth twitched twice. She silently took out 50 RMB from the cash drawer.
During the whole process, they didn't speak. Everything was understood without words.
After that, Shen Youchu stopped buying clothes. No matter how he persuaded her, it was useless.
Chen Hansheng looked at the time. He simply went to a nearby food stall and booked a private room. At around 5 PM, Shen Youchu's roommates also came to Yiwu Commodity City.
They were carrying cakes in their hands. It seemed that the cakes were jointly customized by the other five girls.
"Youchu, come and make a wish."
Tan Min lit the candle and said with a smile.
Before making a wish, Shen Youchu glanced at Chen Hansheng. She closed her eyes and blew the candle. However, she was too weak. The candle only shook twice and was still strong.
Chen Hansheng reacted quickly. He immediately blew the candle. The candle was extinguished. Immediately, the roommates' blessings were heard.
The dishes in the private room were very ordinary. The cake was also very small. Compared with Xiao Rongyu's huge birthday party, everything here was so cheap. Almost no one could see Chen Hansheng's efforts.
Fortunately, they were all classmates. In addition, Chen Hansheng and Hu Linyu were bickering. Therefore, the dinner was lively.
After dinner, the roommates were very self-aware. They found excuses to go back to the dormitory first. Only Chen Hansheng and Shen Youchu stayed.
"Let's go for a walk."
Chen Hansheng exhaled. He asked while walking, "What did you wish for just now?"
Shen Youchu answered very honestly, "I wish for grandma, you, A Ning, and everyone. I wish for everyone to be well."
Chen Hansheng smiled. He held Shen Youchu's little hand and walked leisurely under the moonlight. It seemed that there was no destination.
Unknowingly, they came to a residential area. Chen Hansheng pointed to a window with light on and said, "You go to 201. That's the real gift for you. I'll smoke downstairs."
Shen Youchu didn't know what was going on, but she was very obedient. She walked to the second floor. When she just opened the security door of 201, a clear child's voice lit up the light in the stairwell.
"Sister, I miss you so much!"
"Ah …"
Shen Youchu couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
Chen Hansheng grinned. From his nostrils, two streams of white smoke rose in spirals. Under the clear moonlight, the white smoke turned into lovesickness.
A bowl of water should be balanced forever.
