The female salesperson saw Xu Xiuwen holding a girl's bank card and instinctively thought he was a gigolo living off a woman's money. Her impression of him immediately dropped a notch.
After Xu Xiuwen left, the female salesperson sized up Tang Weiwei.
Seeing that the girl was dressed plainly and seemed to come from an average family, she couldn't help but advise, "Don't be deceived. Don't let him trick you."
Tang Weiwei didn't understand what she meant.
The female salesperson continued, "Some gigolos just want to cheat women out of their money. Judging by your family background, I assume that card contains all your living expenses? If you're fooled by him and spend all your money, how will you live afterwards?"
Tang Weiwei finally understood what the saleswoman was implying.
Her face turned red, and she hurriedly waved her hands to explain, "It's not like that. You misunderstood. The bank card is actually his; he just left it with me for safekeeping."
The female salesperson was stunned and realized she had misunderstood.
Thinking about her presumptuous remarks earlier, she felt a bit embarrassed.
She even began to worry that if the girl told the boy what she had said, her commission from the sale of the two phones might be lost.
She was very annoyed with herself. Why did she have to say so much!
Next to the mall, there was a self-service ATM.
Xu Xiuwen withdrew ten thousand yuan in one go.
Back at the phone store, he paid and still had over three thousand left.
Tang Weiwei didn't tell Xu Xiuwen about her conversation with the female salesperson.
The female salesperson secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Exiting the phone store, Xu Xiuwen held a bag containing the phone in one hand and Tang Weiwei's fair, delicate hand in the other, then headed straight to the clothing store.
At his request, Tang Weiwei tried on many outfits.
Convincing her was easy.
Xu Xiuwen just told Tang Weiwei that the clothes were for the female lead in the drama, and Bai Yue'er happened to be similar in size to her, so he asked her to try them on.
Naturally, Tang Weiwei didn't think too much and agreed.
Then she became Xu Xiuwen's exclusive fitting model.
Watching Tang Weiwei change into one outfit after another, each one looking great.
He really wanted to buy them all, but hesitated and ultimately gave up.
In the end, he bought two outfits.
With the clothes purchased, Xu Xiuwen led the girl to the service counter and got two consecutive phone cards.
Xu Xiuwen helped Tang Weiwei insert the phone cards and saved his new number on her phone, then handed the pink 7610 to the girl.
Tang Weiwei carefully took the phone with both hands, as if afraid of dropping it.
In the eyes of the girl, the 3188 phone would cover her living expenses for a year.
Xu Xiuwen chuckled, "Weiwei, don't worry so much. It's just a phone, and Nokia phones are famous for being durable. Even if you drop it on the ground a hundred times, it won't break. You can relax."
Tang Weiwei shook her head seriously and said, "But this is the phone you bought."
Xu Xiuwen smiled and didn't say much more.
Back at Jiangling, Xu Xiuwen naturally wouldn't easily let Tang Weiwei return to the dorm.
Having finally the chance to be alone with her, he certainly wouldn't miss it.
Ignoring how shy Tang Weiwei was, Xu Xiuwen led the girl to a secluded corner.
He pulled her to sit on his lap and then passionately kissed her.
Tang Weiwei gently pushed Xu Xiuwen's chest and muttered, "No, stop..."
Only then did he release her, her face flushed and breathing heavily.
Xu Xiuwen stared at the girl's face.
His left hand lightly stroked her back.
His right hand rested on her waist, gently caressing it.
Tang Weiwei's body was weak and sore, she begged bitterly, "Xu Xiuwen..."
Xu Xiuwen pretended to be clueless, "What?"
"Your hand..."
Xu Xiuwen withdrew his left hand.
"And..."
Xu Xiuwen frowned, "I take a step back, you take a step back, isn't that a win-win situation?"
Where's the win-win in this?
Tang Weiwei was speechless at Xu Xiuwen's shamelessness.
But she didn't resist.
The girl's waist was really tender, the feeling of fingertips rubbing against it was as smooth as milk.
Tang Weiwei breathed lightly, her body completely relaxed.
It wasn't until the girl was covered in sweat that Xu Xiuwen stopped and let go of her.
Supporting Tang Weiwei, who had weak legs, Xu Xiuwen escorted her downstairs to the dormitory.
"Rest early tonight."
Before leaving, Xu Xiuwen handed the bag containing clothes to Tang Weiwei, then smiled at her. After watching her enter the dormitory building, he turned and left.
Back in the dormitory, it was still the same.
Yang Baishan went out to drink with friends from his hometown, Wang Juncai was playing World of Warcraft, Liu Zhihao was reading a novel borrowed from Shi Xiangming, and Jin Haonan was writing something.
While Shi Xiangming was sitting in a chair, lost in thought.
After sitting down, Xu Xiuwen felt as if Shi Xiangming had a telepathic connection with him, as he suddenly turned his head to look at Xu Xiuwen.
His eyes stared straight at Xu Xiuwen.
Xu Xiuwen felt his heart go numb from being stared at, but before he could say anything, Shi Xiangming looked away.
This made Xu Xiuwen swallow the words he was about to say.
Xu Xiuwen turned on his computer and started typing.
He typed until the lights were turned off, and in total, he typed over 6,000 words.
It's quite late now.
Xu Xiuwen stopped typing and logged into the backend of Jinjiang, starting to update.
Xu Xiuwen updated two chapters in a row, then logged into QQ, opened the book club group, and posted a notice: "There's been a lot going on lately, so the update schedule is unstable. Please forgive me."
He hadn't logged into QQ for a long time and suddenly posted a notice today.
This notice quickly caught the attention of the members in the group.
Xu Xiuwen thought not many group members would see the notice at this late hour.
But as soon as he posted it, the quiet book club group instantly became lively.
For a moment, dozens of female book friends, both regular members and group administrators, began messaging.
"Author, you finally showed up, I missed you so much."
"Author, take care of yourself and don't overwork."
"I thought the author wouldn't update today, but here it is, I'm so happy, sniffle."
Messages started flooding in.
Xu Xiuwen was startled by the enthusiastic response from the female book friends in the group.
He also noticed some of the messages.
For example:
"Author, are you Xu Xiuwen?"
"Author turns out to be the campus heartthrob of Jiangling, I've seen his videos, he's really handsome!"
Seeing these comments, Xu Xiuwen was stunned.
He had never revealed his real name and personal information in the group, so how could the book friends know his real name and that he was a student at Jiangling College?
Xu Xiuwen quickly private messaged a familiar administrator to find out what happened.
After learning the situation from the other party, Xu Xiuwen immediately thought of Gao Dang.
Apart from him, no one would deliberately go to the comments section to discredit him and manipulate the situation.
He sneered, Gao Dang was indeed a clown.
Xu Xiuwen took a few deep breaths and quickly calmed down.
Facing the overwhelming inquiries in the group, he thought, since his personal information had already been exposed, there was no point in hiding anymore, so he simply admitted it.
