Run in opposite directions on a one-way street
"Malatang?" Hao Youran's eyes lit up. She glanced at Qiao Qiao and asked, "How did you know?"
"I just found it when I was passing by today. They said it's opening for half price."
"Half price?" Hao Youran's eyes lit up even more.
Qiao Qiao nodded and took the opportunity to hold Hao Youran's hand. She said, "In order to apologize to our Miss Hao Youran, I'll treat you today. How about it?"
Hao Youran puffed up her cheeks and looked at Qiao Qiao with dissatisfaction. However, she did not shake off her hand. "Joe Qiao, do you think that a bowl of spicy hot pot can relieve my anger? Aren't you underestimating me? "
"Hmm?" Qiao Qiao blinked and then stretched out two fingers. "Those two times?"
Hao Youran's expression softened a little. She lifted one of Qiao Qiao's fingers and said seriously, "Three times."
Qiao Qiao smiled bitterly. "You want me to spend a fortune?"
"Hmph, I'm about to marry into a rich family. What's wrong with treating my best friend to a few meals of Malatang?" Hao Youran said matter-of-factly. In order to make up for her hurt little heart, Hao Youran felt that it was necessary to have a few meals of Malatang.
Qiao Qiao sighed and nodded in resignation. "Yes, yes, yes. Who asked me to hide it from my best friend? It's only right to treat you to a few meals of Malatang. "
Upon hearing Qiao Qiao's words, Hao Youran finally smiled. "Why do you feel the pinch? He Shaochen doesn't give you pocket money? "
"Hehe, I always feel bad about using his money …"
"Ah?" Hao Youran was stunned and looked at her in confusion. What was there to feel sorry about?
Qiao Qiao looked around and said, "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the shop first."
A bunch of incense.
The newly opened Malatang hot pot restaurant.
After listening to Qiao Qiao's dilemma, Hao Youran commented while holding a stick. "Qiao Qiao, I think He Shaochen must be very depressed."
"I know he's depressed, but I feel uncomfortable using his money." Qiao Qiao said in distress.
Hao Youran's mouth full of oil. She waved the stick and said, "Qiao Qiao, you're being pretentious here, do you know that?"
"Uh … Am I?"
Qiao Qiao Qiao Qiao.
Hao Youran nodded seriously. "Think about it. How long have you been living with He Shaochen? Didn't they eat and use enough of him? Which one of those things didn't cost his money? Since you've eaten and worn, you're not willing to spend his money. Don't you think you're being pretentious? "
Qiao Qiao felt as if she was struck by lightning. She was surprised and suddenly felt that Hao Youran's image was great. "What you said makes sense. I'm speechless!"
Hao Youran wiped the oil on her mouth and waved her hand. She looked smug and said, "Don't be infatuated with me. I'm just a legend." She raised her eyebrows and said, "Sigh, I can understand how you feel. The difference in status between two people is too big. Even if one party wants to give, they find that the other party has everything they have. It's hard to give, so there will be such a gap."
Qiao Qiao looked at Hao Youran with admiration, as if she had found a soulmate. She nodded and said, "Yes, yes, that's it. He Shaochen has done so much for me, but I can't do anything for him. I always feel that this kind of love is not equal."
Her eyes lit up. She looked at Hao Youran, who was busy scooping the skewers out of the pot, and continued to ask, "Master, I'm very confused now. What should I do?"
Hao Youran's mouth was stuffed with food and she couldn't speak. She could only point in front of Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao was stunned. Pointing at herself? The problem was her?
Hao Youran shook her head.
Qiao Qiao was confused again. What did she mean? Who was her mentality?
Hao Youran swallowed the food with difficulty and said, "Give me the oil beside you. I think the taste is a little bland."
"…"
Qiao Qiao passed the oil beside her to Hao Youran numbly. She watched her eat a few more skewers before continuing to ask, "Youran, do you know what to do?"
Hao Youran spread her hands. "I've never encountered such a situation. How would I know what to do? Aiya, anyway, there's a man who's willing to give me money to spend. I'm so happy. Just relax and accept it. "
This girl acted like she hadn't said anything.
Qiao Qiao couldn't help but laugh at herself. This was clearly her own problem, yet she wanted to rely on others to solve it. She must have been wrong from the start.
After dinner, Hao Youran wanted to go shopping with her rumored boyfriend, while Qiao Qiao wanted to make a trip to the laboratory.
Just as she reached the laboratory building, she saw Xu Anting and Amy walking towards her.
When Xu Anting saw Qiao Qiao, his expression changed. In the end, he regained his calm composure. His gentle face still had a hint of gentleness.
Amy looked at the two of them and spoke first, "Hey, Qiao Qiao, you're a celebrity in school now. You've been involved in the kidnapping case and Cinderella. You're going to marry into a rich family soon. How are you feeling?"
This was not a good topic to start. Qiao Qiao knew that Amy liked Xu Anting and was hostile towards her. By asking this, she was probably trying to remind her to stay away from Xu Anting.
However, she felt that there was no need for that. After all, it was impossible between her and Xu Anting.
She smiled calmly and said, "Of course I'm in a good mood to be with the person I like."
When she said this, Xu Anting's face seemed to turn pale. He looked deeply at Qiao Qiao and into her eyes, as if trying to find any hint of untrue emotion in them.
Unfortunately, there was none.
Being able to be with the person she liked was probably very blissful.
Xu Anting smiled faintly and said, "I heard that the two of you are getting married next month. Are you going to be a full-time housewife in the future?"
Qiao Qiao shook her head and said, "I don't have any plans for that at the moment. After all, I've already come this far. It would be a pity to give up now."
"That's true. You've put in so much effort, so you should at least get your doctorate. I originally had a few research projects on hand, but since you're preparing to get married soon, I'll give you a break."
"Thank you, Professor Xu," Qiao Qiao said politely and distantly.
Xu Anting's smile became even fainter.
"You're going to the laboratory, right?"
"Yes."
"Then I won't take up any more of your time. Hurry on."
Qiao Qiao nodded and said, "Goodbye, Professor Xu."
After Qiao Qiao said that, she walked right past Xu Anting. The two of them were walking in opposite directions on a one-way street. If they missed each other, they would not have the chance to meet again.
After Xu Anting walked for a while, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. Amy, who was with him, was a little surprised. "Xu, what's … wrong?"
Amy saw Xu Anting pressing his hand to his chest. His face was so pale that it was frightening. She quickly went to support him. "Xu Anting!"
Xu Anting looked lost. He turned his head to look at Amy, who had a worried look on her face, and smiled bitterly. The sadness on his face almost burned Amy's eyes.
