The man across from her raised his eyebrows, huh, the way she addressed him had changed, truly a woman who turned her face faster than flipping a book.
"Big Luoluo, your auspicious words really came true! The principal just told me I'm not being punished anymore!" the girl's cheerful voice couldn't have been more delighted.
Han Luoli also hooked the corner of his lips, carrying his suit jacket in one hand and his phone in the other as he walked out of the hospital.
"It's good that there's nothing wrong, are you still blaming me?"
"Of course, I don't blame you, you're my lucky star!"
Han Luoli automatically filled in Gu Xiaoer's ingratiating face, the difference before and after was just too big, wasn't it?
However, since there was this benefit, how could he not make good use of it. "So how are you going to thank your lucky star?"
"I'll share half of the good food with you!" Gu Xiaoer made a big decision.
"I don't want it, do I come across as such a material person..." Han Luoli refused.
He obviously was, still shamelessly demanding a hefty sum of one hundred thousand. "Then I'll blow you a kiss!"
If he didn't want material things, then it had to be a matter of the spirit, how happy she was to oblige!
"Let's save the kiss for later, say a couple of nice things for me to listen to first." Han Luoli leaned against his car, still reluctant to hang up the call.
"Thank you, Big Luoluo!" That should be pleasant enough, right?
The voice was sweet enough, and there was a reaction down below again. Han Luoli slightly chuckled, turned around, and slid into the driver's seat. "Now say 'husband' for me to hear."
"Husband?"
Gu Xiaoer awkwardly recited these two alien words, only to hear a low chuckle from the other end and the man's satisfied voice: Mmm, husband heard it.
Realizing she had fallen for it and been taken advantage of again, she angrily hung up the phone, her little face slightly hot.
Husband? She repeated the word with her mouth again. It was a word that felt both strange and warm! But how could they ever become a real husband and wife? Husband, those two words represented responsibility and marriage, he knew that, didn't he?
Sweet talker!
Shaking her head, she hurriedly cleared herself from her fantasies, realizing that she was increasingly finding solace in this contract relationship, and that man was always able to satisfy her various fantasies, which was not a good sign.
Returning to the dorm, Gu Xiaoer, with the two thousand yuan she had earned yesterday afternoon in her pocket, grabbed Ai Le and went out to eat.
"Look at you, Gu Xiaoer, knowing how to return a favor, I didn't risk my life for you in vain."
"I know, Lele is the best, so I'm going to treat you to a big meal! Eat whatever you want!" Right now, only food could solve her current woes.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true! What do you want to eat?"
Both of their eyes shone with excitement.
"Well... king crabs, spicy crayfish, hot pot, barbeque, whole lamb..." Ai Le listed off.
Gu Xiaoer chuckled, "Lele, that's all the ambition you have!"
Eventually, they decided with big laughs to go "to the place I've always wanted to go, the Birch Forest Western Restaurant!"
The Birch Forest Restaurant, the most famous one outside of Nanyi, was a place they hadn't stepped foot in once during their four years of college.
Why? Because they were poor.
One meal there could cost them a month's living expenses! It was often visited by people from well-off families.
"Okay." Let's go. After all, it would be a regret not to go as they were about to graduate.
Ai Le chuckled, finding the girl naïve and straightforward; she makes no excuses for her love of food and money. If she had to choose between the two, it would probably be a tough call for Gu Xiaoer.
But when compared to friendship, those things didn't count for much. Gu Xiaoer was someone worth getting to know deeply.
That was also why Lin Kexin was able to hurt her so deeply. She was so open-hearted and generous with others, yet she received nothing but betrayal in return.
