C4 Reminiscing
"You! I mean..."
"If you can't say it, then don't say it. Since you look down on me, then... Then don't ever let me see you eating your mouth full of oil in the stall again."
"Don't talk nonsense..."
Yao Zheng's cheeks turned red. He raised his finger and pointed at Lin Che's face, but Lin Che had already looked to the side and ignored him.
Wang Xiaoya did not look surprised when she saw Lin Che's gaze. Her tone was calm.
"I feel a little uncomfortable these few days. Thank you for your kindness."
Lin Che smiled awkwardly and put away the string of fried purple tassels in his hand. Although he did not send it out in the end, Wang Xiaoya had at least found a reason to leave him some face.
"Then why don't I go and buy some fruits for you to eat? That thing is healthy and can also nourish your face..."
"No need, thank you."
Wang Xiaoya's face was still expressionless. It seemed that even her words were just a polite response.
Lin Che let out a dry laugh, nodded, and turned around to leave.
Looking at Lin Che's back as he left, Yao Zheng said in disdain, "This toad still wants to eat swan meat. Who doesn't know that Xiaoya, you will be Hai Da's top student in the future? How can he match up to you?"
"You can't say that. Everyone has their own merits and there is not only one way to go to school."
Wang Xiaoya replied, but her tone was as calm as a joke.
Lin Che had already walked out of the classroom. There was nothing left for him to miss.
A person hurried over from behind.
"Lin Che, where are you going? Will you leave if you don't play?"
Lee Yifei was in high spirits. He was still holding a snack in his hand and enjoying it.
"You guys play. I have something to do."
Lin Che continued walking forward.
Lee Yifei was stunned. He glanced at the corner of his eye and saw the lily on Lin Che's back. He immediately understood what was going on.
"Didn't you send this flower out? If you don't send it out, it will wither away."
Lee Yifei took out the flower and looked at it carefully.
"I'll give it to you then. Take it. This flower isn't cheap either."
"Haha, look at what you're saying. If I were a girl, I would take it."
Lee Yifei smiled but realized Lin Che was not smiling. He said awkwardly, "I told you that Wang Xiaoya is not so easy to deal with. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many boys suffering."
"Alright, go and play with you. I have already gotten the answer I want. There is nothing to regret."
At this time, Lin Che suddenly turned around and looked at Lee Yifei. He said, " At least I have a good brother like you."
"Yes! As brothers, they are definitely more important than women."
Lee Yifei seemed to be very satisfied with what Lin Che said. He held the lily in his hand and said, "Since you are a brother, I will do it for you if you can't save your face. Just you wait."
After saying that, Lee Yifei headed in Wang Xiaoya's direction. Lin Che shouted from behind, but he could not stop him.
At this time, Lee Yifei had already walked in front of Wang Xiaoya and raised the lily in his hand.
"Here, I know many people give you flowers, but this is a little token of appreciation from Lin Che."
Wang Xiaoya did not seem to hear him and looked out of the window.
"Give me some face. After all, we are classmates. Just treat it as a graduation gift from him. There is no other meaning."
Lee Yifei pleaded softly. However, Wang Xiaoya still did not say anything.
"Can you give me a word?! "I remember that year when you fell and injured your leg, it was Lin Che who bought the medicine for you, right? Do you think you can look down on us just because you got into a good university?"
Lee Yifei was a little agitated. At this time Wang Xiaoya suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Is there something wrong with your brains? Do you need me to explain clearly to understand? Hurry up and leave. I will not take anything from you."
Yao Zheng said sarcastically, "If I didn't say you were poor, why would I give you flowers? Young Master Chen from the neighboring class gave a bunch of top quality Carola Xiaoya, but he didn't take it. How could he accept cheap flowers like you? Let me see. You are about to wilt. "
Lee Yifei still wanted to say something, but Lin Che walked over and pulled him away.
Standing at the door of the classroom, Lin Che took a deep breath. "This matter ends here. This time it is indeed rude of me. In the future, you should also forget about this matter."
Lin Che patted Lee Yifei's shoulder and walked towards the school gate. Lee Yifei stood behind him with a complicated look in his eyes.
It was already evening and the sky was getting dark. The street lamps by the side of the road shone with a faint yellow light.
The stalls by the road did not go home either. They all set up tables, chairs, and light bulbs.
However, the popularity of this old street was not as high as it used to be. Only one or two customers could be seen occasionally.
"That handsome guy, do you want some more? I'll give you a discount!"
The boss of the fried skewers stall was a middle-aged man in his forties. At this moment, he was wearing a white vest and his shiny bald head was shining brightly under the light.
"I bought so much from you just now and still want me to take care of your business."
Lin Che had a good relationship with the stall owner and teased him.
The middle-aged man laughed. "Isn't the whole family counting on this stall to survive? It's better to sell more."
Lin Che knew that this stall owner seemed to be joking on the surface. But not really.
These stall owners started setting up their stalls in the morning, and only left late at night. They were also a group of people who had suffered a lot.
Thinking of this, Lin Che could not help but shake his head.
"Right, Boss Gong, have there been a lot fewer customers recently? I've come here a few times in the past few days, but I haven't seen many people."
When the boss heard that, he smiled bitterly and said, "Yes." Isn't this another commercial street recently opened in the city? It's right next to our old street. "The original customers are not willing to come. Even the students who go to school every day would rather walk a little more to eat there."
Lin Che heard him say so and said, "Since there are more people there, you can also put the stall there."
"I want to too. But this is a small business. " I can't afford modern dining cars and can't meet their hygiene standards. "
Lin Che looked at the bald man and felt sorry for him.
No matter what, this stall had provided him with three years of high school supper.
"Hi, but I'm not a food and beverage worker. ... That's right!"
Lin Che's mind suddenly lit up. He looked at the boss and said, "Boss Gong, I can buy you a dining car and help you buy all the related equipment. But when you make money, you have to treat me to a good meal. What do you think? "
The boss was shocked when he heard Lin Che say that. He opened his mouth wide and said, "If it's true, don't talk about a meal. You can have a meal for free."
