"Oh, this is a beautiful sword. It's rare. It's rare. It's worthy of being from America. It's so generous."
After saying that, he stuffed it into his pocket. Zhou Chen sneered and said, "Look at your potential."
Qin Chuan smiled and didn't care, and then asked Wang Ying: "Wang Ying, how about the pearl milk tea? Is it better than last time?"
Wang Ying said: "It's okay. It's not much different from the ones outside. It's just a bit sweet and I can't finish it."
"Then I'll make you a small cup next time."
When he was not busy at this time, Qin Chuan sat down next to Zhou Chen.
"I haven't been back for a few months. Are you taking classes over there in the United States, or are you busy with business?"
"They are all there. I don't need to go to class now. I'm just busy at the company."
"How long can you stay when you come back this time?"
Zhou Chen looked at Wang Ying and said, "I made an agreement with Wang Ying to stay and study with her until before the Spring Festival."
When Qin Chuan heard this, he immediately said happily: "That's great. I can stay for such a long time. Then when you have nothing to do, come and sit in the store and help me."
"You want me to work for free."
Zhou Chen smiled and then said: "But you are overthinking it. I have my own things to be busy with, but I don't have that much time to stay here and make pancakes."
Qin Chuan chuckled and said, "I know it's not easy to get a big boss like you to work in a pancake shop. Even if you come, we can't afford your salary."
"Don't talk about salary, let's talk about when you can pay me dividends."
The three chatted for a while, and Xie Qiao finally arrived. Along with her were Xu Lin, Xiao Qianxi and He Xiaozhou.
"Zhou Chen, you are finally back. I haven't seen you for a long time, but you haven't changed much."
When Xie Qiao saw Zhou Chen, she immediately stepped forward to say hello with a smile. He Xiaozhou and Xiao Qianxi also said hello one after another.
When it was Xu Lin's turn, she started shouting loudly.
"Zhou Chen, you are finally back. Wang Ying seems to have become a different person these days when you are away, which makes us not used to it. She still smiles more when you are around."
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Thank you for helping me take care of her these days when I am away."
"No, we can't afford this kind of gratitude. She takes care of us more than we take care of her."
Xie Qiao quickly stopped Zhou Chen. She really had no place to take care of Wang Ying, and Wang Ying took care of her just fine.
Her silly tone made everyone laugh.
Qin Chuan hurriedly asked everyone to sit down: "Sit down first, sit down first, I will give you pancakes and pearl milk tea for each of you. I treat you today."
Everyone sat down, and Xu Lin even sat next to Wang Ying. As soon as she sat down, she suddenly let out a cry of surprise.
"Hey, Wang Ying, you are a little different today."
She looked at it carefully, and her eyes suddenly fell on Wang Ying's hand.
"Let me tell you it's different. You don't usually wear a watch, but today you actually wear one."
As she spoke, she raised Wang Ying's hand, and Wang Ying patted her hand.
"Have you washed your hands? Don't touch me."
"Yes, yes, I won't touch you, but your watch is so beautiful. I knew it was Zhou Chen who gave it to you. If he hadn't given it to you, I guess you wouldn't wear it. He has always had good taste.
The things I give you are carefully selected and they don’t look cheap.”
Wang Ying said helplessly: "You have the sharpest eyes. It was indeed given by Zhou Chen. Okay."
"Stop, stop talking. I don't want to know the price, because even if I know the price, I can't afford it. Even if I have money one day, I won't be able to buy it."
Although she said this, her eyes were still staring at Wang Ying's watch. She was also a girl and had a strong possessive desire for such beautiful things, but she could tell the difference between good and bad and knew how much she weighed.
two.
Zhou Chen and He Xiaozhou sat together and chatted quietly.
"Xiaozhou, how are you doing recently? I haven't been able to catch up with auntie's affairs and I haven't been able to help. I'm sorry."
He Xiaozhou smiled casually and said: "You have helped us a lot, but it has passed and I have let it go. In fact, if you are not coming back this time, I also have something to ask you for help."
"Have you figured out the matter of studying abroad?"
"Yes, I figured it out. This is what my mother told me before she died. She said that she was dragging me down and she wanted me to study abroad before she died. In fact, I didn't think so. On the contrary, it was because of her that I
Understand what we really need."
"Now that you have figured it out, I will contact you about studying abroad."
"Thank you. I have passed the TOEFL test and will take the American Graduate Record Examination next."
"I believe this will not trouble you."
Zhou Chen knew He Xiaozhou's academic performance and hard work. As long as he worked hard, the exam would not be difficult for him.
"As long as you pass the exam, you can go to the United States with me to study before then."
He Xiaozhou asked in surprise: "You want to stay until the year before?"
"Yes, you can come with me then. We will have a companion on the way, so it won't be too boring."
"Then, I'll think about it and let's talk about it then."
He Xiaozhou's original plan was that if he passed the exam and Zhou Chen had made arrangements for him, he would go there after the New Year and spend more time with his father and Qian Xi during the Spring Festival. After all, he didn't know when he would be back after leaving.
But now that Zhou Chen is leaving years ago, he is a little excited. If he goes early, he can prepare well. The most important thing is that he has a dark eye on foreign countries. With Zhou Chen taking him, he will definitely be better than him alone.
good.
Zhou Chen nodded and said: "It's still early anyway, so there's really no need to be in a hurry. I'll say hello to you in advance when I'm leaving."
After a while, He Xiaozhou pulled Zhou Chen aside alone and returned a bank card to Zhou Chen.
"Zhou Chen, I really want to thank you for borrowing the money. However, the money has not been used up. There is still 460,000 in it. I will make money and pay it back to you slowly for the 40,000 I spent."
Zhou Chen understood He Xiaozhou's character, so he simply took the bank card.
"It doesn't matter. Don't worry. I don't worry about others, so why don't I worry about you? You still have to focus on your studies now."
Zhou Chen's attitude also made He Xiaozhou feel a lot better, and he thanked him again.
Zhou Chen helped him several times, including helping his mother find a doctor to read medical records, lending him money, and helping him contact Stanford University to study abroad. These were all favors.
Money is easy to repay, but favor is difficult to repay.
He not only expressed his gratitude, but also kept it in his heart. However, he knew that he could not repay these favors yet, so he secretly made up his mind to study hard and work hard in the future to try to repay Zhou Chen's favor as soon as possible.
Everyone played in the pancake shop until late in the evening before leaving.
Before parting, Xu Lin teased Wang Ying again: "Miss, are you going back to the dormitory tonight?"
Wang Ying said angrily: "It's none of your business."
Xu Lin smiled and said, "If you don't go back, I will be more comfortable in the dormitory, and I won't have to wash my feet every night."
"Xu Lin, are you disgusting? You are not allowed to climb up from my bed without washing your feet."
"You can't control it, you can't see it anyway, hey, you can't see it anyway."
Wang Ying had long been used to Xu Lin's antics, and when she saw her jumping away, she just smiled.
She held Zhou Chen's hand and said warmly: "Let's go shopping, eat, and watch a movie before going home."
Zhou Chen naturally had no objection, so he took her arm and left the pancake monster together.
At the end of the weekend, Wang Ying started class on time, but it was a little difficult to get up every morning and she stayed in bed very much. Not only did she stay in bed, she also had to hold Zhou Chen with her to prevent Zhou Chen from getting up first.
When Wang Ying returned to her dormitory to rest at noon, Xu Lin once discovered the diamond necklace she was wearing around her neck. She was shocked at that time.
After learning the price of this diamond necklace, Xie Qiao and Xiao Qianxi also fell silent.
They discovered that when Wang Ying was not in love with Zhou Chen, although she acted like a young lady, her material aspects were not so conspicuous and exaggerated.
But since they fell in love with Zhou Chen, their horizons have been opened time and time again. They can buy gemstone necklaces that are more expensive than commercial buildings in the capital, courtyard houses worth tens of millions, and custom-made clothes worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Thousands of bags can be bought in bunches.
Zhou Chen had just been away for a few months. When he came back, he had a diamond necklace worth two million and a watch worth hundreds of thousands. How could ordinary people like them live?
But fortunately, Xie Qiao and the others are not the kind of jealous people, and their mentality is very good. They are depressed, but they will be like this no matter what.
