Su Xiaoxiao: "..."
This isn’t a karaoke bar, why are they making requests.
Just as she was bewildered, a deep male voice sounded in her ear: "Comrade, how much is the radio in your hand?"
Radio? Where did she get a radio?
She slowly looked down and realized the middle-aged man was pointing at her calculator, making her realize there was a misunderstanding.
The man exclaid: "I’ve never seen a radio like this before. It can play music and calculate numbers; it’s amazing."
Su Xiaoxiao awkwardly pulled the corners of her mouth: "Sorry, this is for my own use, not for sale."
The middle-aged man looked a bit disappointed: "Comrade, could you at least tell where to buy this calculator? I’ll buy one myself."
He spoke the heart of many people in one sentence; several people behind him were staring eagerly at the calculator in Su Xiaoxiao’s hand, their eyes nearly glowing.
"This was brought to by a friend from abroad."
Su Xiaoxiao casually replied, knowing they wouldn’t be able to buy it anyway.
The middle-aged man regretfully looked at it once more, pulled out so money, and left with his bags.
Su Xiaoxiao let out a long sigh of relief, and when she used the calculator again, she made sure to turn off the music button, leaving the people in line behind her a bit disappointed.
Thanks to this incident, Su Xiaoxiao beca well-known in the departnt store.
Her calculator had beco an object of desire for many who wanted to buy one just like hers.
Because of the calculator, the number of people buying things from Su Xiaoxiao at the counter today was particularly high, accounting for about two-thirds of the entire food counter.
She was so busy she didn’t even have ti to drink water.
Finally making it to closing ti, Su Xiaoxiao had just picked up her bag when a crowd of people surrounded her.
"Xiaoxiao, where did you get that radio? It’s amazing; it can even calculate."
"Comrade Su, could you help get one too? I really want it, I’m begging you."
"Comrade Su, could you play that song you played today again?"
...
Zhang Dongi watched as Su Xiaoxiao was surrounded like a superstar, feeling quite angry.
Isn’t it just a lousy radio? Who doesn’t have one?
Her cousin works at a radio factory; she’s going to ask him to get one tomorrow, hmph.
Zhang Dongi huffed and swung her bag over her shoulder to leave, only to find that the people surrounding Su Xiaoxiao blocked the road.
"Make way, can’t you see you’re blocking the path?"
Zhang Dongi frowned and tried to push through, only to be shoved by soone, losing her footing and kneeling.
"Mr. Zhang, what are you doing? Is it a holiday or sothing for you to give such a big ceremony? You’re quite polite."
Su Xiaoxiao’s teasing voice ca from beside her, and Zhang Dongi gritted her teeth as she got up from the ground: "Su Xiaoxiao, it’s just a lousy radio, look how proud you are. We’ll see!"
With that, she snorted coldly and walked off with her head held high.
Zhang Dongi didn’t go straight ho after leaving the departnt store; she headed to her cousin’s place first.
Her cousin Zhang Zhijun works at the radio factory, so it’s not difficult for him to get her the latest model.
As soon as Zhang Zhijun heard her request, he patted his chest and assured her: "Just co by when you’re at work tomorrow, it’ll be the latest model from the factory."
Zhang Zhijun’s promise instantly set Zhang Dongi’s mind at ease; tomorrow, she would bring the latest radio to work and surely outshine Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao sneezed and had a feeling that soone was talking about her behind her back, but she had no proof.
She rubbed her nose and walked outside.
Just as she reached the entrance of the departnt store, it started raining lightly.
It’s just a drizzle, no problem, as long as she rides fast enough, the rain won’t catch her.
Except... can soone tell her why it’s raining harder and harder?
It takes Su Xiaoxiao about an hour to ride ho, and within ten minutes of riding out, the drizzle turned into a downpour.
With rain this heavy, seeing the road while biking was becoming a problem; she shielded herself with her hand and debated whether to head back to the departnt store or find sowhere to take shelter from the rain.
While debating, the rain above her suddenly stopped.
She looked up in surprise and saw Zhou Cheng’s smiling face.
"The movie starts in ten minutes; just in ti."
"What?"
Su Xiaoxiao paused for a mont, then realized she had promised Zhou Cheng to watch a movie after work, which she had completely forgotten.
Zhou Cheng took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders, his wheat-colored skin showing a faint blush.
He had been worried Comrade Su might not co, but unexpectedly she ca, even braving the rain.
Su Xiaoxiao: This was a beautiful misunderstanding; she was just trying to avoid the rain and hadn’t even noticed she was at the cinema’s entrance.
Oh well, since she’s here, she might as well take shelter from the rain before leaving.
Zhou Cheng naturally took her bicycle and handed her the umbrella handle.
Su Xiaoxiao hurried to catch up and held the umbrella for him.
Due to the rain, there weren’t many people in the cinema; the two practically had the place to themselves.
Zhou Cheng had given Su Xiaoxiao his coat, leaving him in a thin, military-green T-shirt.
Su Xiaoxiao noticed his wet back as she looked up, feeling a bit guilty: "Comrade Zhou, your clothes are all wet; I should return your coat."
It was early autumn, and with rain, the weather was quite chilly.
Zhou Cheng stood tall: "It’s okay, you keep it on; I’m not cold, I’m used to it."
No wonder he beca a captain at such a young age, his physical condition is indeed impressive.
Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but admire inwardly, but she didn’t notice Zhou Cheng behind her was shivering as he hugged his arms and did a quick warm-up exercise.
After watching the movie, the rain outside had stopped.
"Comrade Zhou, thank you for inviting to the movie. I’ll return the clothes to you tomorrow."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and waved at him as she rode off on her bike.
Zhou Cheng watched her leave, his hand in his pocket touching the neatly folded floral boxers inside.
This was the first thing she had ever given him, and he hadn’t had the heart to wear them yet.
Su Xiaoxiao rode her bike ho, nearly jumping out of her skin when she saw two figures standing at the entrance to the courtyard.
She stared for a long ti before realizing these two creatures who looked like they had been dragged out of the river were actually her younger brothers, Old Four and Old Five.
"What have you two been up to? Why do you look like this?"
Su Jianwu burst into tears upon seeing his sister: "Third Sister, you finally ca back?"
He was about to latch onto her leg, but Su Xiaoxiao quickly backed away: "Hold it, you’re soaked, stay away from ."
Seeing her sister’s obviously disdainful expression, Su Jianwu cried even harder: "We’re like this all because of you."
Su Xiaoxiao ???
With her puzzled expression, the two brothers explained how they ended up like this.
After listening, Su Xiaoxiao looked at them as if they were idiots.
