"Oh, thanks a lot, Landlord,"
Wei’er’s mom gratefully responded, her hands holding cash, but if she paid the rent first, it would an she couldn’t afford Wei’er dad’s dical treatnt for now. So if the landlord wasn’t in a hurry, she could use the money to buy dicine for Xia Wenjun first.
"By the way, I heard that the weight loss popsicles you sell here are quite good. Let try one."
The landlord whispered.
Wei’er’s mom had an epiphany, realizing that after all this ti, the landlord was being so polite because she was here for the weight loss popsicles, but indeed, there were none available today.
"Landlord, they were all sold out yesterday, and I haven’t made any more today. How about you co back later, and I’ll save one for you?"
Wei’er’s mom said with a smile.
The landlord seed a bit disappointed but still said, "Alright, I’ll co back for it in the evening. Just don’t sell them all."
"I won’t, I’ll definitely save one for you."
Wei’er’s mom replied cheerfully.
Once the landlord had left, Wei’er’s mom quickly went to the back room to find her daughter and ask her questions.
"Why hasn’t Tang Ming co yet, Wei’er, did you actually look for him when you were at school?"
Wei’er’s mom asked a bit anxiously.
"Mom, I forgot about it when I went to class today,"
Xia Wei’er said, her face turning red. In truth, she was reluctant to find Tang Ming for fear that he would take the opportunity to make so demand, pressuring her into agreeing to sothing.
Having been fancied by many boys from a young age and due to her family’s circumstances, Xia Wei’er was very cautious of everyone, even if Tang Ming had helped her a lot. She was always on guard against him in her heart, naturally not giving him any chance to blackmail her.
"Forgot?"
Wei’er’s mom reproached her a bit:
"Wei’er, I’m not trying to bla you, but our cold drink shop’s business now entirely depends on the weight loss popsicles. Do you know the landlord ca by earlier?"
"The landlord ca? Was it for the rent?"
Xia Wei’er asked, startled.
"No, she ca to reassure us, saying it’s not too late to pay when we have money."
Wei’er’s mom paused before adding, "But do you know why the landlord is so reassured?"
"I don’t know,"
Xia Wei’er shook her head.
"It’s because of the weight loss popsicles! The landlord must have heard from her friends about the benefits of the weight loss popsicles. That’s why she ca to tell us not to worry about the rent, and incidentally asked to save so weight loss popsicles for her this evening. So, tell , isn’t Tang Ming very important to our cold drink shop?"
Wei’er’s mom spoke earnestly.
"Yes, mom, I got it. I’ll go find him right now,"
Xia Wei’er knew she couldn’t avoid it. Without Tang Ming’s weight loss popsicles, her family’s cold drink shop definitely couldn’t continue to operate, so she had to muster the courage to look for Tang Ming.
In the afternoon, Xia Wei’er finally arrived at the senior three class five classroom, only to find out that Tang Ming wasn’t there.
"Where has this guy gone off to?"
Xia Wei’er wondered, noticing that the chubby Zhou Youfu was also absent from the classroom.
Just as she was about to turn around and leave disappointedly, a girl beside her asked, "Are you Xia Wei’er?"
Xia Wei’er took a closer look and saw a beautiful girl with a great figure standing beside her. She was not as tall as herself, but she was even more adorable, and what was most striking was her chest, prominently pushed forward, making many boys blush.
"Li Xiaoli, I ca to look for soone."
Xia Wei’er said with a flushed face, naturally recognizing Li Xiaoli, who was also a school beauty.
Li Xiaoli laughed, "So the Goddess of the Commoners ca to find soone, could it be a boy? Which lucky guy in our class caught your attention?"
"I’m looking for Tang Ming."
Xia Wei’er said with a flushed face, "I have sothing to ask him for. Li Xiaoli, could you please tell Tang Ming later that I ca looking for him and needed his help with sothing?"
"Sure."
Li Xiaoli nodded with a smile.
After Xia Wei’er left, Li Xiaoli walked into the classroom, went up to Liu ngting and said, "ng ng sister, I have to tell you sothing. The school beauty Xia ca looking for brother Tang Ming and even asked to pass on the ssage. Do you think I should tell brother Tang Ming?"
Liu ngting was surprised for a mont, then said, "Why tell him? As long as he’s my good bodyguard, that’s enough. Can’t let him go flirting around and causing trouble."
"Then, okay, I won’t tell brother Tang Ming."
Li Xiaoli thought about it and agreed.
After school in the afternoon, Xia Wei’er didn’t see Tang Ming co to look for her at the classroom door. She was worried that if Tang Ming did not go to make the diet popsicles, the dessert shop would have nothing to sell, business would plumt, and her father would not have money for his treatnt, tightening her heart, she ran to Class 5 of Senior 3 again.
When she reached the doorway of Class 5, she found that the teacher was still holding the class and the students hadn’t been dismissed. Peeping through the window, Xia Wei’er saw Tang Ming lying on his desk asleep, which instantly irritated her: "Sleeping instead of coming to look for , he must be putting on airs. If I go and seek him out, it’s like I’m begging him, and surely he would make demands like everyone else!"
Xia Wei’er started to feel that Tang Ming was interested in her, certainly playing that old ga of playing hard to get.
After waiting a while, the class finally ended. Li Xiaoli was the first to co out of the classroom, and upon seeing her, Xia Wei’er hastily asked, "Li Xiaoli, did you tell Tang Ming that I ca looking for him?"
"Ah? I forgot about it."
Caught by the question, Li Xiaoli had no choice but to lie.
Xia Wei’er was speechless, thinking, how unreliable is this beauty in doing things.
"Wei’er, why are you here?"
The chubby boy also ca out of the classroom and greeted Xia Wei’er upon seeing her.
"Zhou Dafu, I’m here to find Tang Ming. Can you call him out for ?"
Xia Wei’er quickly said to the chubby boy.
"Alright."
The chubby boy waddled into the classroom, woke Tang Ming up, and dragged him out of the classroom.
Tang Ming, rubbing his eyes, saw it was Xia Wei’er and couldn’t help asking, "What’s up?"
Xia Wei’er, looking at Tang Ming, felt a sudden annoyance, thinking that he clearly knew how long those diet popsicles could be sold. Seeing his feigned ignorance, she could only say, "Your diet popsicles have sold out. My mom asked to tell you to make so more."
"Oh, that. Easy."
Having said that, Tang Ming went straight to look for Liu ngting and Li Xiaoli.
"ng Ting, you and Xiaoli go ho first, I need to handle sothing on Snack Street."
Tang Ming told Liu ngting.
Xia Wei’er, who was coming from behind, happened to hear this and wondered to herself, "Why are they heading ho first? Do the three of them live together and go ho together after school every day?"
Although it was strange, Xia Wei’er didn’t quite understand the relationship between Tang Ming and Liu ngting at the mont, so she didn’t think too much about it.
However, Liu ngting, after hearing Tang Ming’s words and being told by Li Xiaoli about Xia Wei’er looking for Tang Ming, plus knowing that Xia Wei’er’s family did business in Snack Street, the astute girl imdiately thought, could there be sothing subtle between Xia Wei’er and Tang Ming?
