Chapter 174: My Darling, Drink More Water

Jiang Qin looked at Feng Nanshu sternly thinking you can deceive yourself but can you deceive others? Search your conscience and tell me what kind of cup this is.

But Feng Nanshu clutched the cup refusing to let go.

She wore a white down jacket the fur on the hood tinged with a faint pink making her look exceptionally lively and pure. Under the orange lights of the supermarket her cold pretty face held a hint of stubbornness her pearly teeth lightly biting her red lips her watery eyes unwavering.

“I’m out of money. I’ve been burning through cash on promotions recently even having to freeload meals.”

Jiang Qin put on a straight face and started claiming poverty.

“I have money. I’ll buy it for you.”

The little rich girl was unstoppably generous not even blinking an eye at spending money.

Before he could say the four words “Don’t buy it” Jiang Qin suddenly thought what if she called him “big brother” how would he respond?

I would be unable to respond.

The final result would definitely be buying the couple cups and the words “big brother” shattering another chunk of cement a disaster on all fronts.

Ugh it’s really easy to make money off young girls especially ones so invested in friendship.

She just wants to collect more things related to you desperately trying to fill her life with traces of you as if that way she’ll never lose or forget you not caring if it’s worth it.

So in the end what she’s buying isn’t a cup but that pure wonderful bond.

She’s still worried if good friends can really last forever so she wants to leave all the things that can be associated with you in her life.

“Manager Jiang how much for these two cups?”

“Thanks for your patronage 99 yuan. I’ll make it a nice 90 for you.”

“No need for that. I don’t like it being short a yuan. Here’s 100 keep the change!”

Jiang Zhihua smiled like a blooming flower as she took the hundred yuan note thinking to herself Jiang always knew your biggest weakness was this unbelievably beautiful girl so why did I bother going to great lengths to make a star student to indulge you?

I should have just written your name on every product like those milk tea cups and made a killing off your family!

After seeing the two off Manager Jiang came out from behind the counter put out a new pair of couple cups tore off the old price tag wrote a selling price of 100 and stuck it on.

She hadn’t paid attention to the pricing at first only realizing after Jiang Qin pointed it out.

Who wants to buy a love that’s missing a yuan? It’s simply not auspicious.

Changing ninety-nine to one hundred yuan makes it complete and whole a price that better fits lovers’ wishes.

No wonder they make money the details are simply unbeatable.

“Jiang Qin I’m hungry.”

“I’m hungry too. Let’s go eat at the cafeteria.”

Jiang Qin and Feng Nanshu held hands their free hands carrying their respective cups as they went to have a meal at Cafeteria Two.

The rabbit couldn’t be saved but they still had to eat. Jiang Qin ordered a few side dishes fried yellow croaker white boiled shrimp cold pig ear and water spinach stir-fry with a portion of rice each.

He was indeed starving. As soon as he sat down he started shoveling food in only feeling a bit better once he had something in his stomach.

Then he glimpsed the little rich girl reaching into her pocket taking out a wallet and silently pushing it over.

“What’s this? You want to be my sugar mama?”

Feng Nanshu pursed her little mouth: “I never use up my living expenses. You spend it for me.”

Jiang Qin hadn’t expected it to really be sugar mama treatment: “It’s all here?”

“I lent fifty to Gao Wenhui. I’ll get it back from her for you tomorrow.”

Jiang Qin opened the wallet and took a look. It was all crisp new hundred yuan bills plus two bank cards a milk tea card. This was the little rich girl’s entire fortune minus fifty.

“If you give me your money what will you do? Have you thought that from now on you’ll have to eat with me if you want snacks you’ll have to ask me for money to buy them if you want to go shopping I’ll have to go with you if you want to go out and play also…”

“?”

The more Jiang Qin said the weirder it sounded while Feng Nanshu was clearly starting to get excited.

“I don’t want it. Put your wallet away safely don’t lose it. I’m not actually poor claiming poverty is just my hobby.”

Hearing this Feng Nanshu reached out and pushed the wallet towards Jiang Qin again her expression solemn and serious.

Jiang Qin temporarily set the wallet aside. He picked up a peanut and fed it to her just seeing the little rich girl’s solemnity instantly crumble as she obediently opened her mouth to eat it her little mouth looking oily and moist.

Right at this moment Jiang Qin’s gaze captured a sneakily suspicious figure.

The other party also noticed this so they stopped hiding brazenly walking over and sitting next to Feng Nanshu casually taking a pair of chopsticks from the sanitizer cabinet and eating a piece of pig ear.

The cold pig ear tasted smooth crisp and fresh wrapped in sauce fragrant and tender upon entering the mouth.

“Little Gao.”

“Hm?”

“You sure have guts. Lying to me is one thing but you dare to boldly eat my food? Why not go a step further and just sit on my lap?”

“That’s Feng Nanshu’s spot. If I sat there she’d cry.” Gao Wenhui imitated the little rich girl’s expression looking aloof.

Jiang Qin’s face darkened: “Are you a relative of the matchmaking deity?”

Gao Wenhui took a deep breath and spoke with righteous indignation: “At first I hadn’t planned to come. But then I thought I schemed to get this eye candy fair and square so there’s no reason I can’t enjoy it. Otherwise wouldn’t I be the one losing out?”

Jiang Qin lowered his voice and spoke sternly: “Don’t play these kinds of games next time. I thought she was being bullied. I almost ran a red light on the way back.”

“Ah? I I didn’t know!”

“Now you know?”

Gao Wenhui pondered for a moment: “Doesn’t that just mean Feng Nanshu is more important to you than anything else? As soon as she seems off your heart goes haywire. That’s love something words can’t explain.”

Jiang Qin glanced at Feng Nanshu and seeing her focusing on twisting her cup lid felt a bit more at ease: “Eat your food. What business is it of yours to worry about our matters?”

“When sulfur dioxide and oxygen produce sulfur trioxide vanadium pentoxide is also needed as a catalyst.”

“You know I don’t study so you’re deliberately making things difficult right?” Jiang Qin’s sneer was colder than a winter night.

Gao Wenhui waved a hand: “You two continue being lovey-dovey. I’ll keep quiet and enjoy the show while I eat.”

“…”

Jiang Qin turned to look at Feng Nanshu and found her staring dazedly at the bottom of the cup her fine curled lashes fluttering her cheeks redder than before as if her soul had left her.

“What are you looking at?”

Jiang Qin was a bit curious. He had chatted with Gao Wenhui for so long but the little rich girl seemed to have been staring at the cup the whole time.

Was there something inside? So interesting to look at.

“I I wasn’t looking at anything.”

Feng Nanshu was a bit guilty but still shook her head with righteous indignation.

“There must be something inside the cup right? Let me see.”

Jiang Qin held out his hand demanding it from her.

“Jiang Qin there’s nothing in the cup. Focus on feeding me.”

The little rich girl’s mouth opened slightly looking adorable as she asked him to feed her.

“The more you say that the more I want to look. There must be a secret inside right?”

Feng Nanshu was silent for a moment then handed over the cup with a cold clear expression.

Jiang Qin didn’t think much of it purely curious but after taking a look inside the cup his expression gradually turned solemn.

Five raised characters could be seen on the stainless steel cup bottom: “Wife Drink More Water”.

Jiang Qin was stunned for a while. He unscrewed his own cup and there were also five raised characters: “Husband Drink More Water”.

“Whose outrageous idea was this?”

When he had taken the cups from Jiang Zhihua’s hands he had specifically turned them in a circle to look. Although the colors of these two cups complemented each other and the shapes were identical there weren’t any directional phrases.

If you said they were couple cups fine but if you said they had to be a matching set there was absolutely no issue.

Just like the couple outfit they bought at Wanzhong Mall there weren’t any blatant words like “I love you” “You love me” “Husband” or “Wife”. Wearing it felt pretty justified.

But who knew there would be another layer inside the cups.

“Give it back to me after you’re done looking…”

Although Feng Nanshu had a cold expression she was actually a bit flustered afraid he wouldn’t give it back after seeing the words.

“Use hot water to scald it a few more times when using it. It’s best to fill it up and let it sit overnight. I smell a bit of an odor. The inspection certificate looks authentic so there shouldn’t be any major issues.”

Jiang Qin pretended he didn’t see calmly handing the cup back to her.

“I know.”

Feng Nanshu held the cup to her chest treasuring it to the extreme.

Jiang Qin turned to Gao Wenhui: “I heard you borrowed fifty yuan from the little rich girl?”

Gao Wenhui raised her head upon hearing this: “It’s the end of the month. My living expenses are a bit short. But aren’t you two still just good friends? How come you’re already managing money?”

“What I mean is if your living expenses aren’t enough you can go work part-time at the little rich girl’s milk tea shop. No need to rob Peter to pay Paul.”

“Doesn’t the milk tea shop have enough staff?” Gao Wenhui was a bit surprised.

Jiang Qin spoke after gobbling a few mouthfuls of rice: “The University of Technology and the Normal University are also opening milk tea shops. We’ll definitely send old employees to hold down the fort for a while. By then this shop won’t have enough staff. You’re Feng Nanshu’s best friend. Go work part-time at the front square for a while. Later on you can be a store manager or something. I’d feel more at ease with you there.”

“Of course you can rest assured with your own people. I’ll go tomorrow.”

“What own people? Little Gao you really are a treasure. You haven’t even started working yet but I already kind of want to dock your pay!”

“?????”

“Then it’s settled. I’ll notify Hu Xin. Just follow her lead and learn.”

Jiang Qin finished eating and fed Feng Nanshu a few more bites. He then picked up his own cup staring at the words inside as he walked out of the cafeteria.

“Nanshu you must take control of the family finances in the future. You can’t hand them over to Jiang Qin. A woman can only hold the right to speak in the family if she controls all the assets.”

Feng Nanshu looked at her in a daze: “Wenhui I forgot to ask you. Didn’t you say your leg hurt?”

Gao Wenhui was speechless for a moment: “It suddenly got better.”

“Wenhui you’re a bad person. I won’t listen to you.”

Actually Jiang Qin had his own considerations in having Gao Wenhui work part-time at Xitian.

This woman was a terrorist an existence in the uncontrollable range that was extremely uncontrollable. But once Little Gao joined Xitian wouldn’t docking her pay be up to him.

Jiang Qin walked to the dorm building in bliss and found Cao Guangyu also happened to be returning. The cup in his hand seemed to be the same style as his own the plastic wrap on the outside not yet torn off.

“Yo!”

“What yo? Scram!”
