Chapter 61: Be sure to wear it
"Have you seen Qiu Tian's Encounter? It's hilarious. And I'm crazy about the song. I was so excited when it was adapted into an anime."
Eh…?
Eh…!
The strands of hair on Yu Yu's forehead trembled slightly.
Xu Cheng actually knew about the encounter... and knew that I was crazy about singing... and knew Qiu Tian...?
The excitement of a person who has worked hard in a certain field for many years and suddenly meets a confidant almost made Yu Yu jump up with excitement.
She really wanted to ask Xu Cheng if he had read Teacher Qiu Tian's Hua Juan Y Chuan, and if he had read the works of Lin Ying, Lin Xi, Ke Xin...
In an era when there are no ACG gathering places, it’s so exciting to have a like-minded person to talk about your favorite works with!
Of course, after saying so many things, she finally just said two words in a reserved and calm manner.
“I have seen it…”
After saying that, he lowered his head again.
But Xu Cheng had seen through her mental activities. It was so difficult for a child to hide his inner thoughts...
He never thought that a childhood encounter would lead Yu Yu to like the second dimension...
So weird...
Xu Cheng suddenly felt excited again. Doesn't this mean that he has indeed changed Yu Yu's life trajectory!
That regrettable tragedy may really be rewritten by ourselves!
The tricycle made some creaking noises when riding, but there was nothing serious wrong with it. When he returned to the gate of the staff quarters, Lin Wanzhou had been waiting for a long time.
She was carrying two small baskets in her hands and wearing a white fisherman's hat on her head.
"You guys have been gone for a long time."
Lin Wanzhou looked at Xu Cheng, then at Yu Yu.
"The tricycle needs some repairs too, so why are you carrying two baskets? What have you prepared?"
Lin Wanzhou put the small basket in his hand on the back of the tricycle and showed everything one by one, "Here are the paper and pen you asked me to prepare, and some water, a small fan... The sun is so strong, I also brought some sunscreen, I'll spray it on you..."
Lin Wanzhou grabbed the sunscreen in her little hands and sprayed it on Xu Cheng's neck, arms, and calves. The cool mist felt very comfortable on her skin.
"Let me help you spread it evenly..." Lin Wanzhou said with a slightly red face.
Hearing this, Xu Cheng, who was applying lotion on his arm, was stunned.
What's wrong with you today? Aren't you afraid of being shy anymore?
Just then he got a call on his PHS. It was from the fat boy Li Qiuyang. "Old Xu, let's go play basketball. I've decided. I want to lose weight starting today."
Xu Cheng enjoyed Lin Wanzhou's small hands massaging him up and down, "Play ball... I have something else to do now, how about you come to my house and wait for me?"
"Okay, I'm right by the roadside. I'll be there in a taxi."
Li Qiuyang agreed readily.
"Xu Cheng, Yu Yu, I have prepared a hat for you too, here it is."
Lin Wanzhou gave Yu Yu a fisherman's hat like hers, and the hat she gave Xu Cheng was very high-tech, pink with a brim, made of plastic, like a duckbill cap. The coolest thing was that it had a small electric fan on it, which started spinning wildly when the switch was pressed.
Xu Cheng's face was filled with disdain. "This hat would look childish even if worn by a fifth grader... It's more suitable for college students..."
"It's not childish, and it's so hot..." Lin Wanzhou kept fanning her cheeks with her little hands, "You must wear it, or something bad will happen..."
"I don't want to wear it."
While they were playing and fighting, Li Qiuyang came over in a taxi, holding a basketball in his hands.
Xu Cheng took the ball from him and said, "Why are you playing basketball in overalls? Let's go."
He bent his waist and climbed onto the back of the tricycle, giving the driver's seat to Li Qiuyang.
"What are you still standing there for?" Xu Cheng patted the car mat and said, "Let's go. "
"Where are we going?"
Li Qiuyang was confused... Do I need to ride a tricycle just to play ball...
Xu Cheng rolled his eyes at him and said, "You want to lose weight, right? This is called a spinning bike. It will help you lose a lot of calories. We just happen to be going to the wholesale market. You can take us there. We can kill two birds with one stone."
Li Qiuyang suddenly had the illusion that he was getting something for free.
The wholesale market is not far from the family compound. If you want to buy wholesale stockings, you can find them in the underground wholesale market there.
Li Qiuyang pedaled quite fast, and because it was not a safe driving behavior, Xu Cheng asked the two girls to wrap their arms around themselves to prevent falling.
Lin Wanzhou sat on the tricycle, watching the familiar scenery quickly recede. He felt a different kind of freshness. The summer breeze was no longer so hot and stuffy , but brought a hint of coolness. "This is my first time riding a tricycle... I feel like we are an expedition team. It's so interesting!"
Yu Yu also felt very happy. It was an experience he had never had before to sit in a car with a group of friends.
Lin Wanzhou recalled the past in a rambling manner.
"When I was a kid, Xu Cheng and I went to the wholesale market here. Xu Cheng is really capable. He started doing business when he was in kindergarten and made a lot of money."
"Later, a nasty kid in the kindergarten reported me to the teacher... I forgot who it was..."
The tricycle shook violently.
"That's right!" Lin Wanzhou clapped his hands, "It's a little boy, right, Xu Cheng?"
Xu Cheng nodded.
Guess again, the answer is pretty close.
When they arrived, Li Qiuyang, sweating profusely, said he was going home no matter what. "This is too tiring. I'd better lose weight tomorrow..."
"Okay, but don't leave so quickly. Please keep an eye on the car for us. We will be back soon."
Xu Cheng's ready agreement caught Li Qiuyang off guard, and he even felt a little guilty.
It would be too rude to just leave like that, just help him watch the car for a while...
"OK."
There are a lot of people in the underground wholesale market, and things like washbasins, brooms, and mops are everywhere, and there are also many wholesale stores selling socks.
Xu Cheng went straight to one, walked in with Lin Wanzhou and Yu Yu, and asked with an innocent look on his face.
"Sister, sister, can I ask the price of stockings?"
The female boss, who was wearing black stockings and watching TV with her legs crossed while eating melon seeds, didn't even stand up. She waved her hands at them impatiently and said, "Kids, go play somewhere else..."
"Oh, then let's go look somewhere else. My mom said we should help her find a shop with a suitable price. After all, our batch is 200 pieces..."
The female boss's ears moved slightly.
200 pairs...? Or stockings?
"Little boy... wait a moment..." She jumped up and blocked the door. "You are here to help your mother. You are so sensible. What brand of socks do you want to see? I have them all here..."
"Hmm... Let me take a look..."
Xu Cheng picked and chose several kinds of stockings. The female boss quoted the price, "These two are cheap. If you order more... this one is 9.7 yuan, and this one is 10.2 yuan. This Langsha one is a little more expensive, so I'll charge you 15.3 yuan... In the end..."
She clicked on the calculator and said, "2191.2 yuan, 2190 yuan for you."
Xu Cheng put her hand on her chin and thought seriously. Suddenly, she turned sideways to look at Lin Wanzhou. "How much did that store sell it for?"
Lin Wanzhou: ???
"What?" Xu Cheng was surprised. "More than 200 yuan cheaper? Then let's go to that store to buy it..."
Lin Wanzhou was pulled around by him with a bewildered look on his face, his little head full of confusion.
Did I just speak?
Yu Yu's eyes were also full of question marks.
Didn't we just go to one...
The female boss hurried to block the door again. She was half-believing and half-doubting. The price could indeed be bargained down. If she were an adult, she would probably know that they were trying to rip her off. Unfortunately, these targets were children...
Children can't be so clever...
"Little friend, I'll give you a discount... That store gave you a discount of more than 200 yuan, right? I'll give you another 250 yuan discount! 1940 yuan, isn't that a good price?"
1940……
This price should be much more fair...
"That's the price, then."
Xu Cheng looked at the female boss with satisfaction , revealing a harmless smile.
"But... Boss..."
“I’m an elementary school student.”
"Can you give me a few more of the best quality ones?"
