Volume 5: Twenty Undoubted Chapter 326: Jiang Xiaoguo and Liang Shuang's Theory on Raising Pets
Half an hour ago, a cell phone rang in Liang Shuang's dormitory. Liang Shuang, who was sitting on a fitness ball stretching her limbs, picked up the ringing . She sat on the fitness ball and straightened her body while pressing the green answer button and said:
"Hello?"
"Hello, are you Liang Shuang?"
"Um!"
"There's a package for you. Could you please come to the supermarket to pick it up?"
"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll be there now!"
"Okay, bye!"
"Bye-Bye!"
After hanging up the phone and putting on a coat, Liang Shuang left the dormitory and went outside the school supermarket to pick up her express delivery. The girls' dormitory was not far from the school supermarket. After a while, Liang Shuang arrived at the place outside the supermarket that was specially used to store express deliveries. Seeing a courier boy standing there, she walked over and said with a smile:
"Hello, I'm here to pick up a package!"
"Hello, you are Miss Liang, right?"
"Yes, I am!"
"These packages are all yours, payable on delivery, the total is seventy-eight dollars, thank you!"
“Oh, ok, Alipay is ok, right?”
“WeChat and Alipay are both OK!”
"good!"
After scanning the code to pay, Liang Shuang waited for the courier to drive away in his truck. Then she walked towards the girls' dormitory, carrying two babies on her back and dragging two heavy packages in her hands. She walked for a while and stopped for a while. A boy passing by wanted to lend a hand, but she directly refused. When she turned the corner, she saw Yuan Xudong and Jiang Xiaoguo standing downstairs of the girls' dormitory chatting. She was about to hide, but was seen by Yuan Xudong.
"Liang Shuang, do you need help?"
"Need not!"
Looking at Yuan Xudong, who pretended not to be familiar with Jiang Xiaoguo whenever he was with her, Liang Shuang said with a slightly cold expression:
"Get out of the way! Don't block the road!"
"Liang Shuang, why are you like this?"
Seeing that she and her boyfriend wanted to help Liang Shuang out of kindness, but Liang Shuang not only did not appreciate it, but also spoke coldly to them, Jiang Xiaoguo couldn't help but said angrily:
"Forget about your help. I'm too lazy to help you. Just drag it back slowly!"
After that, without waiting for Liang Shuang to respond, Jiang Xiaoguo pulled Yuan Xudong and prepared to leave:
"Xiao Dongzi, let's go, leave her alone, and let her be dragged back slowly!"
"Okay, help her, I can't get into the girls' dormitory!"
Seeing Liang Shuang dragging the package stubbornly and looking at him with a wronged look, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but feel sorry for her, so he tapped Jiang Xiaoguo on the head lightly while she was yelling to leave and said with a smile:
"We all live in the same dormitory, can you not help her?"
"Don't hit my head. What if it breaks?"
After glaring at Yuan Xudong, Jiang Xiaoguo walked over to Liang Shuang, stretched out his hand to take the two packages from her and said:
"Give it to me, I'll help you carry two!"
"No need, I can do it on my own!"
Seeing that Liang Shuang was still insisting that she didn't need help, Yuan Xudong walked over and picked up the two largest packages she was dragging on the ground and said:
"Come on, I'll take you to the bottom of the building, and then you'll be on your own!"
"OK!"
Seeing how relaxed Yuan Xudong was, Jiang Xiaoguo took the package Liang Shuang was carrying and put it on Yuan Xudong's shoulders, saying with a smile:
"Those who are capable should do more work. These two are also given to you!"
"Then thank you!"
Giving Jiang Xiaoguo a blank look, Yuan Xudong walked towards the entrance of the girls' dormitory carrying four packages. He didn't know where Liang Shuang got the packages from. Although he felt they were very heavy, Yuan Xudong pretended to be relaxed. He walked all the way to the entrance of the girls' dormitory before stopping. He took a rest and said,
"Okay, I can only deliver it here. The package is a bit heavy, so you two can take less at a time and make more trips!"
"It's okay, I'm very strong!"
Jiang Xiaoguo rolled up her sleeves and walked to the two largest packages, holding one in each hand and preparing to pick them up at once like Yuan Xudong. However, the packages fell down again just a few centimeters off the ground. Afterwards, she used all her strength to move only a short distance forward with one package. Seeing that Jiang Xiaoguo performed so poorly, even worse than herself, Liang Shuang, who had always thought that she was stronger than herself, said with a smile:
"Jiang Xiaoguo, I thought you were stronger than me, but it turns out you can't even lift a package, right?"
"Who, who said I can't lift it up ?"
Seeing Liang Shuang still dared to laugh at her, not only was she not as pretty as her, but she was also not as strong as her. Jiang Xiaoguo was unwilling to admit defeat the more she thought about it.
"I wasn't prepared just now. I'll try again now, just watch!"
As he spoke, Jiang Xiaoguo took a deep breath, held it, and used all his strength to grab the edge of the package and lift it up, then walked towards the dormitory. Before Yuan Xudong and Liang Shuang could look away, Jiang Xiaoguo stumbled and fell to the ground before he had taken two steps with the package his hand. The package in his hand also fell to the ground, probably because the zipper of the package was not closed properly, and the things originally packed inside were exposed.
"Xiao Guo, are you okay?"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo fall to the ground, Yuan Xudong hurried over to help her up and expressed his concern.
"fine!"
Standing up from the ground, looking at the scattered items on the ground, Jiang Xiaoguo quickly packed them into the package and said:
"Liang Shuang, where did you get these parcels? There are no valuables in them, right?"
"No!"
Liang Shuang glanced at Yuan Xudong and explained to Jiang Xiaoguo:
"Didn't I live outside before? These are the things placed in the house, all sent by Chen Zhuo!"
"That two-timing scumbag?"
While Jiang Xiaoguo was packing the sundries into the package, he picked up a photo of Liang Shuang and Chen Zhuo from the ground and said:
"He looks like a decent guy, but he's a scumbag. Liang Shuang, are you still in contact with him?"
"No, who contacted him?"
Giving Jiang Xiaoguo a blank look, as if worried that Yuan Xudong might have some bad misunderstandings about him, Liang Shuang squatted down to help Jiang Xiaoguo and Yuan Xudong clean up the debris, pretending to say casually:
"I haven't been in touch with him for a long time. I deleted all the WeChat and phone calls. But he was really stingy. He sent these things to me and paid for them on delivery. It cost a total of 78 yuan!"
“Is this true or false?”
It was the first time that Jiang Xiaoguo heard of cash on delivery for express delivery. He was like Columbus discovering the New World. He opened his eyes slightly and said:
"Next time someone asks me to help send something, I will also use cash on delivery. Otherwise, if they don't pay, I won't be embarrassed to ask for it. Then won't I be at a huge loss?"
"Yeah, you're at a loss!"
Giving Jiang Xiaoguo a blank look, Liang Shuang sorted out the photos of her and Chen Zhuo from the package and threw them all into the trash can next to her. After cleaning up, Jiang Xiaoguo and Liang Shuang carried all the packages to the girls' dormitory in two batches. After watching the two of them leave for the last time, Yuan Xudong also drove away. He had originally planned to go to the Lan Xi Boutique Hotel tonight to continue teaching Liang Shuang how to swim, but it seems that plan has also been ruined.
In the girls' dormitory, Jiang Xiaoguo's bedroom, seeing Jiang Xiaoguo and Liang Shuang dragging back four large packages like ants moving house, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan couldn't help but watch and said:
"What's going on?"
“Are you moving?”
"Yes, it was something sent by some scumbag!"
"Who is it?"
"Who else but golf?"
"There's still Yuan Xudong!"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo gossiping about herself with Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan, Liang Shuang couldn't help but say:
"He's not a good man either. All men are the same. None of them are good!"
"You, what are you talking about?"
Hearing Liang Shuang say bad things about her boyfriend, Jiang Xiaoguo slightly widened her eyes and said angrily:
"It's really true that good people don't get rewarded. Someone was kind enough to help you pick up the package, but you still said that to him. Do you feel bad about that?"
"Who asked him for help?"
"You, I really, really pissed me off!"
"Okay, okay, stop talking!"
Seeing that Jiang Xiaoguo and Liang Shuang were like a rooster and a centipede, quarreling at every turn, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan quickly pulled Jiang Xiaoguo apart and advised:
"Okay, Xiaoguo, you know Liang Shuang. She has a sharp tongue..."
After looking at Liang Shuang and seeing that she was also looking at him, Duan Jiabao could only lie and say:
"Beans, tofu heart!"
"Bean, tofu heart?"
Hearing Duan Jiabao say that Liang Shuang was kind-hearted, Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan both widened their eyes slightly and said in disbelief:
“Is there any tofu that is this hard?”
"That's right, do you want to choke dad to death so that you can inherit his Ant Huabei?"
"Oh, that's not what I meant!"
"Okay, you three lemons, go play somewhere else!"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo and the other three chattering together, Liang Shuang couldn't help but roll his eyes. While sorting out the debris, he said with disgust:
"Don't stop me from packing!"
"You, you are right. We just don't want to help you pack your things!"
After staring at Liang Shuang who looked very cold, Jiang Xiaoguo pulled Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan's arms to the side and watched Liang Shuang pack up the sundries while telling her about her mother's part-time job to buy bags for her and Yuan Xudong's help to buy a house and a car for her in Shenzhen. Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan who were born into wealthy families could not fully understand Jiang Xiaoguo's excitement, but seeing her happy look, Luo Yan smiled and said:
"Xiaoguo, your mother is so great that she actually gave you a part-time job. Besides working, my mother forces me to study for the postgraduate entrance exam. I am so fed up with it!"
Seeing Luo Yan speaking so pitifully, Duan Jiabao patted his chest lightly, as if he was relieved and said:
"My mom is fine. She doesn't care about me much. After all, life is just like that. As long as I live happily every day, that's enough. We can talk about the future later. Why do I have to think so much now?"
"Well said, our Dabao is the most open-minded one. Dad gives you a thumbs up!"
"I was wrong, we are not from the same world!"
She rolled her eyes at the carefree Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan. It turned out that Jiang Xiaoguo had said a lot, and the focus was on the fact that Yuan Xudong would help her buy a house and a car in Shenzhen. However, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan didn't mention it. They only noticed that Jiang Xiaoguo's mother had a part-time job selling a Gucci bag for her. Although maternal love is great, every mother expresses her love for her children differently. In Jiang Xiaoguo's view, Luo Yan's mother forced her to study for the postgraduate entrance examination out of love. She was busy working every day, and the money she earned was used to help Luo Yan buy two houses in Shenzhen in full, making her future life much easier.
As for Duan Jiabao's mother, her family is a billionaire and there are dedicated people to manage the company. Duan Jiabao doesn't need to work hard in the future. She just needs to be happy every day. In other words, even if Duan Jiabao works hard, her monthly salary is not enough for her to eat. Therefore, there is no need to work hard. Just be happy.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo's sudden emotion, Luo Yan couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay, I'm just talking!"
Shaking his head, Jiang Xiaoguo looked at Luo Yan and said with a smile:
"By the way, Shitou, didn't you say you were going home tonight? Why are you back again?"
"I……"
After a slight hesitation, Luo Yan told the truth:
"I went back, but I saw my mother with a man. She seemed to be in love, so I came back again!"
"Ah, that's a good thing!"
Hearing such a big thing, and thinking about how Luo Yan's mother, a big lawyer, was in love with a man, Jiang Xiaoguo was particularly curious. Thinking of this, she looked at Luo Yan and gossiped:
"Your mother has been single for so many years, it's time for her to find a partner. By the way, who is the man? How does he look? Is he handsome?"
"How should I know? This was the first time I saw him, and I was hiding far away, so I only saw half of his face!"
"Then how did you find out that they were in a relationship, or maybe working partners?"
Duan Jiabao next to him asked curiously.
"I saw them hugging each other. How can partners do that?"
Rolling her eyes at Duan Jiabao, Luo Yan said in a somewhat depressed mood:
"Although I know it's normal for her to be in a relationship, I still can't accept it. I feel so sad!"
"Shi Tou, don't be like this. Your mother has taken care of you for so long. Now that you have grown up, you can't always be with her. It's normal for her to want to find someone to accompany her, right?"
Seeing that Luo Yan seemed to be quite opposed to her mother's new relationship, Jiang Xiaoguo quickly advised:
"Your mother will be sad if you do this. Maybe that's why she hasn't confessed to you yet. My mother has taken care of me for so long, and I really hope she can find another man she likes. It's just your stepfather, right? What do you have to worry about? Are you afraid that your mother won't love you anymore?"
"How can I have that?"
Luo Yan glared at Jiang Xiaoguo who said that to her, and choked up a little:
"Actually, I know I shouldn't do this. It's really selfish, but I just can't control myself. When I see her with that guy, I think of my dad. I feel so sorry for him. I feel so bad!"
"Okay, stop crying, let's take it slow!"
Seeing Luo Yan's red eyes, Jiang Xiaoguo couldn't help but hug her in his arms and coaxed her like a child:
"Shi Tou, think about it. Your mother is only in her forties, and your father has been dead for so many years. It must not have been easy for her to raise you all by herself. Your father in heaven would not want your mother to end up alone in this life, don't you think?"
"Xiao Guo, why do I feel like you are more like my mother than my mother?"
Seeing that Jiang Xiaoguo really treated her like a child, Luo Yan snuggled in her arms and burst into tears and said:
"How about this, let's talk about our own things. From now on you call me dad and I call you mom, okay?"
"You want to die, don't you?"
Seeing Luo Yan return to normal, Jiang Xiaoguo quickly pushed her away, rolled his eyes at her, and said with disgust:
"If you want to die, Dad can help you. Tell me, how do you want to die? Do you want to be steamed or braised?"
"Dad, I was wrong, please forgive me!"
Seeing that Jiang Xiaoguo was joking with her, Luo Yan took advantage of the situation and threw herself on her, crying bitterly:
"Dad, I won't dare to do it again next time !"
"Oh my god, Shitou, I am convinced. I am completely convinced by you!"
Being entangled by Luo Yan and strangled by the neck, Jiang Xiaoguo quickly surrendered and asked for help from Duan Jiabao who was watching the fun nearby:
"Dabao, please save me, Dad is dying, the rocks are too heavy, I'm going to be crushed to death!"
"I don't dare. What if a stone hits me?"
“Ah!”
"Shi Tou, hurry up and come down. Daddy promises not to beat you to death!"
"I won't come down. If you have the guts, come and hit me."
"Ha ha!"
…
"Boring, childish and vulgar!"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo and the other two playing together, Liang Shuang looked down on them while she was cleaning up the debris. She looked so proud, just like a Disney princess. Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo and the other two having so much fun, laughing and joking, she cleaned up the debris silently. The more she looked at the debris in front of her, the more disgusted she became. She stood up and kicked twice, knocking all the remaining debris that had not been cleaned up to the ground:
"I don't want these anymore, do you want any?"
Hearing the noise Liang Shuang made, Jiang Xiaoguo and the other two all stopped and took a look at the debris that she had kicked to the ground. Jiang Xiaoguo said with disdain:
"Who, who wants your garbage? Just clean it up by yourself. We won't help you!"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo being so tough, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan on the side also said unwillingly:
"That's right, isn't it just a full set of Chanel lipstick and perfume? You're treating it like a treasure. We don't care about it!"
"That's right, clean it up yourself, we definitely won't help you!"
"Who asked you for help?"
Seeing that Jiang Xiaoguo and the other two were targeting him alone, Liang Shuang felt aggrieved, but he said fiercely:
"Never mind, I'll just take it and throw it away myself!"
"Dabao, how much is a full set of Chanel lipstick and perfume? Is it expensive?"
"I don't know. I never look at the price when I buy things. Is it a few thousand or tens of thousands?"
several thousand?
Even tens of thousands?
Hearing such an expensive price, Jiang Xiaoguo slightly widened her shining eyes and thought of what Yuan Xudong said. They all lived in the same dormitory, so how could he not help Liang Shuang?
Seeing Liang Shuang all alone, he is actually quite pitiful. He is just a little sharp-tongued, bad-tempered, and arrogant, but no one is perfect, so what's the big deal?
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaoguo suddenly came to her senses. She took the initiative to walk to Liang Shuang and said with a smile:
"Liangzi, no, Liangshuang, let me help you!"
"ah?"
Seeing that Jiang Xiaoguo had betrayed them so quickly, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan opened their eyes wide in surprise and said:
"Xiao Guo, what are you doing?"
"That's right, you betrayed again?"
"What are you talking about? What about treason or not? How ugly does that sound?"
After giving Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan a blank look, Jiang Xiaoguo said with a seductive smile:
"Our little Dongzi has already said that we should be strict with ourselves and lenient with others, and make the world full of love and peace. We all live in the same dormitory, so we are roommates. How can I not help Liang Shuang?"
"Tsk tsk, you are worthy of being the academic king Jiang Xiaoguo. You are in the top three of the grade. Look at your ideological awareness and your speaking level. They are different from us. I admire you so much!"
"Xiao Guo, I was right about you. You are really shameless!"
"It's okay to be shameless, what's the big deal?"
Rolling his eyes at the smiling Luo Yan and Duan Jiabao, Jiang Xiaoguo helped Liang Shuang clean up the debris that she had kicked over and said:
"Let me help you. You're so slow and you look like you've never done any housework before!"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo squatting down to help him pick up things, Liang Shuang hesitated for a moment, then squatted down and continued to pick up the sundries and said:
"Thank you!"
"Thank me for what?"
Seeing Liang Shuang actually say thank you, Jiang Xiaoguo packed up Chanel's lipstick and cosmetics while smiling:
"I'm not helping you for free, are you trying to shirk your responsibility?"
“Who defaulted on his debt?”
Liang Shuang rolled his eyes at Jiang Xiaoguo, then hesitated for a moment and said:
"Didn't Yuan Xudong buy these things for you?"
"No!"
Glancing at Liang Shuang, Jiang Xiaoguo explained:
"What I mean is, I can earn money to buy these things myself. If I let him buy everything, then I will have to obey him in the future, right?"
"Yeah?"
After taking a look at the serious Jiang Xiaoguo, Liang Shuang frowned slightly and said:
"Isn't it normal for a woman to listen to her boyfriend and spend his money?"
"Who said it was normal?"
Hearing Liang Shuang say this, Jiang Xiaoguo slightly widened his eyes and disagreed:
"Everyone has different choices. If you spend your boyfriend's money every day, won't that make you his pet?"
"pet?"
"pet!"
…
Seeing that Jiang Xiaoguo and Liang Shuang seemed to have really reconciled, Luo Yan and Duan Jiabao also ran over to help:
"We're here to help too!"
…
