Using the excuse of injury, Lin Qiao asked for three days of paid leave and lay comfortably in the dormitory for three days.
It was not until the evening of the third day that Bai Mengying came back from home.
Her face looked a little haggard.
Lin Qiao didn’t know how to comfort her. She looked at her with a hesitant look in her eyes.
Sensing Lin Qiao’s discomfort, Bai Mengying smiled and took the initiative to say, “You don’t have to worry about it. The news that our family is about to go bankrupt has been widely spread.”
Ji Nian and Liang Xiaoyu were drying clothes on the balcony. They ran in shock when they heard the words.
“Xiao Bai, your family is going bankrupt?!”
Seeing their confused faces, Bai Mengying realized that Lin Qiao didn’t tell them.
She looked at her gratefully and said, “Yes, it may be acquired soon.”
“Ah?”
Ji Nian and Liang Xiaoyu were about to say something to comfort her when they heard Bai Mengying speak again.
“Hey, it seems that after I graduate, I won’t be able to help my Dad run the company. I can only go home and count money.”
Ji Nian: “?”
Liang Xiaoyu: “?”
Lin Qiao: “???”
Bai Mengying looked at Lin Qiao with her beautiful phoenix eyes, “Baitian’s offer is enough for my family to eat and drink for three lifetimes. Don’t you know?”
Lin Qiao: “…”
Is there a knife? She wants to make these rich people red bean paste!
To celebrate the family’s impending bankruptcy (?), Bai Mengying invited them out for a hot pot. The four of them packed up and went to a shopping mall near the school.
This shopping mall is newly opened. Probably because of the 20% off opening promotion, the entrance is full of people waiting for a seat.
“There are so many people? Why don’t we go to another one?” Miss Bai Mengying never likes waiting.
“Get a ticket first, and come back if you can’t find another one after looking around.” Lin Qiao pointed her finger at the automatic ticket-collecting screen, showing the cleverness of a common citizen.
Just as they were about to leave, they heard a waiter inside with a loudspeaker saying to the waiter outside: “No. 32, table No. 32 is cleared.”
After receiving the message, the waiter outside immediately took a loudspeaker and shouted: “Excuse me, are there any guests coming together as four?”
The shopping malls near the university town were full of couples, one after another. The waiter had been talking for a long time, but no one in the crowd raised their hands.
Seeing this, Lin Qiao hurriedly pulled the three people over.
“We! There are four of us!”
The waiter took their number tags and led them in.
The four of them looked at each other, not expecting happiness to come so suddenly.
This is an authentic Sichuan and Chongqing hotpot restaurant. As soon as you enter, the strong spicy aroma hits you in the face. Although it is already autumn, there are still many people eating hot pot in short sleeves.
Lin Qiao and the other three sat down at table 32. As soon as they sat down on the benches, Ji Nian’s expression froze.
“Should we change seats?”
“Why?” Lin Qiao was puzzled.
Ji Nian pointed to the left with her eyes, and the three of them looked over.
She was so scared that she quickly turned Lin Qiao’s head over and whispered, “Don’t look at them together. It’s so obvious!”
Even though she already turned her head, Lin Qiao could see that there were four young men sitting across the aisle from each other. They all had big flowery tattoos on their arms. Some had a bald head, some had dreadlocks, and some had an afro. They didn’t look like serious people at first glance.
