Qin Li said excitedly, "Yes, she is the top student who has won the scholarship at our school for four years in a row. She is very talented, excellent, and a good seedling."
"Do you have an accurate judgement of people? What do you think of her, is she capable enough?" Qin Li asked eagerly.
Shi Lin sneered and curled her lips, "Cleaning up the graffiti in the girls' bathroom at your school is more impressive than anything else."
...
Lin Mian returned to the dormitory, poured herself a glass of water, and opened the medicine given by Shi Lin to take it.
*Ding!*
Her phone screen lit up, and she clicked on WeChat to find a 1000 yuan transfer from her roommate Mu Tao, whose voice came from behind her.
"Mian Mian, I transferred last night's part-time pay to you. But why didn't you come back all night? I came back later than you did. If you hadn't sent me a message to let me know you were safe, I would have thought you were taken away by hooligans!"
Lin Mian put away the medicine box, blushing as she lied, "I worked a night shift at the convenience store last night, trying to earn some extra money."
"You are really pushing yourself too hard, almost becoming a 24-hour work warrior. You work so hard for money that you don't care about your life. No wonder you have such dark circles under your eyes; it looks like you didn't sleep all night."
Hearing this, Lin Mian's cheeks involuntarily turned red.
In a sense, she did indeed stay up all night and work hard...
"I am really tired, I'll go to bed for a while. Wake me up for lunch." Lin Mian yawned, thinking of climbing into bed to catch up on some sleep.
"Okay, okay, you go to sleep. I'm going out to have dinner with my crush, so I won't be with you. I'll treat you to something nice when I come back at noon!"
Mu Tao twirled around in her cute little skirt, her delicately made-up face glowing with a hint of sweetness.
Lin Mian couldn't help but tease her, pursing her lips, "Going out to dinner with the male god? Are you sure it's not a romantic date? The love bubbles in your eyes are about to burst out."
"You've never been in a relationship, you don't understand. The contact during the ambiguous stage is the most exciting, especially that unspoken tension between both sides. It's no fun once you're in a serious relationship."
Mu Tao raised her eyebrows, leaning on the head of the bed to advise Lin Mian, "Mian Mian, I strongly suggest you find a boyfriend, experience some love and stuff. Otherwise, being such an honest and straightforward girl like you, it's easy to trip over in relationships in the future."
Lin Mian smiled and pursed her lips, "I'm very busy, I don't want a boyfriend."
"You, you just haven't tasted the flavor of a man, otherwise, you'll be addicted and unable to extricate yourself."
The taste of a man...
Lin Mian recalled certain unspeakable images in her mind, moved her sore limbs uncomfortably, silently cursing in her heart.
She definitely wasn't addicted.
After Mu Tao left, Lin Mian was alone in the dormitory. She changed into her pajamas, ready to take a nap, when her phone rang.
Looking at the jumping name on the screen, Lin Mian immediately answered the call happily.
"Dad, why are you calling me?"
"I miss my daughter, can't I call and ask?" Lin's father's gentle voice came through the phone.
"Of course, no problem. I miss you too, Dad. How is your leg feeling?" Lin Mian asked, cuppingLin Mian sat up with her phone in her hand.
"The surgery was a success. The doctor said I have to stay in the hospital for three months, and after recovery, I'll be able to walk again." There was an indescribable excitement in Lin's father's voice.
After being paralyzed for several years, he could finally stand up like a normal person. His anticipation was palpable.
"By the way, Mian Mian, your mother told me that you paid for my surgery. You're still a college student, haven't graduated yet, where did you get such a large sum of money?"
Indeed, only her dad would pay attention to her status as a poor student, while the rest of the Lin family would just urge her to send money, never caring about where her money came from.
Lin Mian grabbed the sheets, trying to sound casual, "I took on a freelance job a few days ago. The client was generous and wealthy, so now I have money. This is an advance payment for the design fee, Dad, you don't have to worry. In a month, I'll start my internship and I'll be able to earn more to support you."
Upon hearing her words, her father finally put his anxious heart at ease.
"Dad, I don't want you to support me. Just take care of yourself. That client seems nice to advance your salary. You should work hard with him, okay?"
Thinking about how that "client" had long since blocked her.
Lin Mian awkwardly nodded, "I understand."
After a brief chat, the doctor on the other end urged her father to start rehabilitation training, and reluctantly, Lin's father had to end the call.
After hanging up, Lin Mian heaved a long sigh of relief.
Her finger accidentally swiped the contacts, and she saw a familiar string of numbers, the phone number of Shi Ling, whom she bombarded with calls before.
She stared at her phone for a long time, then deleted Shi Ling's WeChat and number.The transaction is over. Both parties have received what they wanted.
She and he will no longer have any contact.
Let's just consider this a little episode in her life.
