Lin Bei not only liked the post, he also left a comnt: "So beautiful, like a fairy."
All won love to be complinted.
And that was especially true for eighteen-year-old Huang Hui.
After seeing his comnt, she deliberately waited three minutes before replying: "You’re exaggerating, it’s all thanks to the beauty filter!"
The two of them then exchanged a few more comnts on the post.
It did, however, significantly brighten Huang Hui’s mood.
When she closed her feed and opened her chat list, she found a ssage from Jiang Sifan.
Jiang Sifan: "Babe, once I make so money, I’ll buy you an iPhone!"
Huang Hui naturally wouldn’t spoil her boyfriend’s enthusiasm. She replied: "Okay! I’ll be waiting~"
’But he’s just a college freshman. Besides delivering food and tutoring part-ti every day, what else can he do?’
’I can’t possibly wait two or three years for an iPhone, can I?’
At this thought, Huang Hui couldn’t help but feel her spirits sink again.
She glanced at her roommate Chen Kailin’s bed; on her desk were expensive bags and high-end makeup sets, all gifts from her boyfriend, Lin Qiang.
They say that in college, aside from passing your classes, the most important thing is to find a guy who’s a "blue-chip stock."
Never mind whether you’d get married in the future; at the very least, you could live without a care for these four years.
’Sifan is very ambitious and hardworking, but...’ The more Huang Hui thought about it, the more agitated she grew. In the end, she just pulled the covers over her head and went to sleep.
anwhile, Lu Fan was loitering around the entrance of the flower shop from ti to ti.
He would either help Jiang Yixia sweep the floor or help water her flowers.
This left Jiang Yixia exasperated. She finally snapped, "Seriously, don’t you have anything to do all day?"
"I really don’t have anything to do." Lu Fan smiled. "I don’t know how to make pastries, you don’t need to watch the shop, and there are no custors. I’m bored out of my mind."
"If you’re that bored, stop hanging around my shop. You can go have so fun, go find so pretty woman," Jiang Yixia said, rolling her eyes at him.
"Yixia, listen to . I’m really not interested in those dolled-up won anymore. You have to believe ." Lu Fan imdiately set the broom aside, preparing to step inside for a chat.
Just as he was about to set foot inside, Jiang Yixia pointed at the threshold and said angrily, "If you dare cross that line, I’ll smash you with this vase."
"Okay, okay, I won’t co in. I’ll just stay on the very edge," Lu Fan teased. "Is that alright? I won’t cross. Just right here on the threshold."
"Hmph!" Jiang Yixia retorted, still peeved. "Could it be that after all these years of fooling around, you’ve completely worn yourself out? Lost your manhood? Is that why you were talking so high and mighty just now?"
"Are you kidding ?"
Lu Fan took a deep breath, clenched his fist, and gestured to his firm muscles. "Yixia, to be honest with you, there’s no difference between now and my younger self."
"Like I’d believe you," Jiang Yixia said disdainfully. "The only thing I trust in any sentence you say is the period at the end."
Lu Fan laughed. "Yixia, believe , I’ve really turned over a new leaf. How about this? We can sign an agreent. If I ever cheat again, I’ll leave with nothing."
"Who wants your money," Jiang Yixia retorted. "I’m not short on cash now, and I’m living well. So whether you cheat or not has nothing to do with anymore. Alright, hurry up and leave. I’m going ho to cook."
With that, Jiang Yixia started packing her things, preparing to close the shop and head ho.
Normally, she would just eat takeout at the shop.
But today, there were hardly any custors, and with Lu Fan constantly hovering around, Jiang Yixia’s mood had soured.
So, she decided to go ho and cook for a change, and she would co back in the afternoon.
Hearing this, Lu Fan nodded. "Okay, go on ho and cook then. You should eat more. Don’t be so stingy with yourself. I bet you usually only eat vegetables and no at, right? Look how thin you are. Your waist is so slender, just like when you were eighteen."
Jiang Yixia frowned, not wanting to listen to him spouting those cheesy lines.
She got on her electric scooter and prepared to leave.
But behind her, Lu Fan was still nagging, "Rember to watch for cars! Be safe! Stay in the non-motorized vehicle lane, or you’ll get a fine from the traffic police."
Listening to him still yapping on behind her, Jiang Yixia felt a real urge to turn around and run him over.
However, she recalled the cheesy line that bastard had just said.
She glanced down at her own waist.
She couldn’t help but feel a little proud.
Over the years, perhaps the collagen in her face had thinned, and the wrinkles had multiplied.
Although Sister Li often praised her for having a mature charm.
Jiang Yixia still felt herself slowly aging.
She wasn’t as beautiful as when she was young.
Only her slender waist remained sothing to be proud of.
Being complinted by Lu Fan today, Jiang Yixia decided she would forgive him—for three seconds.
Three!
Two!
One!
’Okay, ti to be angry again.’
’Not forgiven!’
The thought of Lu Fan’s pathetic appearance, begging for forgiveness, made Jiang Yixia feel a sense of satisfaction.
After all, he had made her suffer quite a bit over the years.
"Hmph! Bastard. Serves you right. Don’t think a few sweet words will make forgive you! Impossible!"
With a sense of triumph, Jiang Yixia rode her electric scooter towards ho.
At the sa ti, Lu Fan asked Jiali, "Where does Yixia live?"
"She lives in a place called Jini District. Boss, the soft furnishings for that unit are already in place. You can go over now," Jiali explained.
Lu Fan nodded. "Good. Let’s see if I can bum a al off Yixia."
He recalled the ti back at the electronics factory, when he followed the system’s arrangents and set up a stall to do business every night.
And every night, Jiang Yixia would cook a al and bring it to the pedestrian street for him to eat.
Although he had eaten all kinds of delicacies over the years, even growing tired of them.
But what he savored most was the food Jiang Yixia had made during that ti.
It was delicious, so tasty.
The food was filled with the taste of love.
Lu Fan still rembered how when he ate, Jiang Yixia would sit beside him, watching him with a doting look.
The more he ate, the happier Jiang Yixia would be.
It seed like people who cook all share this trait.
They don’t eat much of their own cooking, but if others enjoy the food, they feel happy and content.
Lu Fan then looked at Chen He and said, "Chen He, let’s go."
"Yes, Boss!"
Soon, a Maybach was heading in the direction of Jini District.
As for Jiang Yixia, when she returned to Jini District, she happened to see a Maybach parked downstairs.
Although so wealthy people lived in the district, a Maybach that looked this expensive was still a rare sight.
However, she didn’t pay it much mind and just pressed the button for the elevator.
The elevator soon arrived at the eighth floor.
Jiang Yixia then walked out of the elevator.
But the mont she stepped out, her brows furrowed tightly.
She stared at Lu Fan in front of her and angrily demanded, "What are you doing here? Were you following ?!"
