He Jing answered almost without thinking, “Staying at home.”
“Why?” Shen Qiuyu asked.
“I don’t have money.”
Any transaction that was more than five yuan would not be considered.
Shen Qiuyu couldn’t help but say, “I really didn’t expect that such words would come out of your mouth one day.”
In the past, she had spent a lot of money on Yan Hanxi. She ate and wore only the best.
He Jing, on the other hand, had already started calculating the days when the scholarship and poverty relief fund would be distributed. In less than a month, it would time for summer camp. The summer camp was a huge expense, and she did not have that much spare money to spend. She could only plan carefully and save as much as she could.
Moreover, the school that He Xiaoguo attended had a similar event, so she had to pay the money on behalf of the He family. In the past, He Xiaoguo had never gone because the family was poor.
He could only watch helplessly as his classmates went off, while he had a boring weekend. Then, on the first day of school, he would listen to his classmates talk about their post-travel feelings, seemingly completely isolated.
He couldn’t write an essay even if the teacher asked him to. He could only hand in his blank homework and stand as punishment. He Jing thought that since she had already joined and become a member of this family, she wanted to give her younger brother a happy childhood experience.
Wu Yu said, “Sister Jing, you’re too boring. Why don’t you go out to have fun with me and I’ll pay for all the expenses?”
Before He Jing could say anything, Shen Qiuyu teased, “I think you’re trying to woo Sister Jing. Stop dreaming. Sister Jing would definitely rather have fun with me than go with you.”
At this moment, Yan Hanxi, who had been leaning back in his chair with a math book covering his face, suddenly sat up straight. The book slid down from his face, revealing his languid and exquisite eyebrows. It was a fatal attraction. Shen Qiuyu blushed when she saw this and heard him say, “Next weekend, there will be a new secret room in the suburbs of Azure City. It’s horror-themed. Merit Student, do you want to take up the challenge?”
Shen Qiuyu answered on He Jing’s behalf almost without thinking, “Alright, alright, let’s go…”
He Jing frowned slightly. Why was this fellow coming to join in the fun again?
She turned to look at Yan Hanxi, only to see that his lovely narrow eyes were smiling and looking very affectionate.
Yan Hanxi casually fiddled with the math book that had fallen on him and said slowly, “I have free admission tickets to all the escape rooms in A City. I can’t finish them even if I go there ten times a day. If you want to go, I can give you a few tickets. You can take it as mutual help between deskmates.”
The corners of He Jing’s mouth twitched. What kind of mutual help was this? She couldn’t help but say, “Why didn’t you give Wu Yu some?”
Although Wu Yu was separated from him by an aisle, he could barely be considered a deskmate.
Wu Yu, who was cued, had no words.
Yan Hanxi glanced indifferently at Wu Yu and chuckled. “If he wants it, of course I will give it to him.”
However, his tone clearly said, “If you dare to take it, you’re dead.” Wu Yu shrank back and immediately waved his hand. “No, I don’t want it.”
He Jing thought for a moment. Yan Hanxi had so many free coupons that he couldn’t use them all anyway, and they couldn’t be turned into cash. She could use them on his behalf, and consider it prevention of wastage, so she gladly agreed, “Then give me a few.”
He Sui, He Xiaoguo, and the others didn’t have any entertainment programs. They could only stay at home. It was a good time to bring them for a workout.
“Alright,” Yan Hanxi said with a smile.
He Jing did not take his coupons for nothing. She took out her favorite fountain pen from her bag and exchanged it with him.
This pen was worth tens of thousands of yuan each. It was stationery that the Cheng family had bought for her and was completely worth the price. Yan Hanxi pulled off the pen cap and smiled. “Just this is enough.”
The pen cap was gold-plated and looked like a bullet. It was very beautiful.
But He Jing was a little speechless. “Then what about my pen?”
Without a pen cap, it would definitely spoil in less than two days.
Yan Hanxi actually took the cap off his fountain pen and put it on for her. “Use this.”
He Jing was dumbstruck.
Then what was the point of her giving a pen cap?
Wasn’t it just exchanging one?
However, Yan Hanxi insisted, so she didn’t want to argue with him.
“Actually, you can borrow things like computers from me,” Yan Hanxi said..
