half thorns, half joy

"...Boyfriend?" Tang Xuan almost spit out a mouthful of black tea.

"That's right, you are so beautiful, it would be a pity not to have a boyfriend." Qian Susu's tone was provocative, "If you don't like boys in college, then let's find someone from outside."

Tang Xuan recovered from the surprise bit by bit, she couldn't help thinking, could this be the reason why Qian Susu invited her to dinner?
But what good does Qian Susu do to her?
"Sister Susu, I...I don't know..." Tang Xuan hesitated, she didn't even need to pretend, she really didn't know what to say.

Qian Susu seemed to see through Tang Xuan, and said with a slight smile, "It's okay, you don't need to be nervous, and you don't need to answer me right away. If you are forced to fall in love, what's the point?"

Tang Xuan pursed her lips, "Sister Susu, you are right."

"Go back and think about it carefully. If you don't fall in love, college will be over. Besides, all I know are elites. If you miss this village, you won't have this store."

"Uh-huh."

At this time, the waiter brought the dishes to the two of them, and Qian Susu clapped her hands, "Okay, let's stop this topic here, I see you are shy, let's have a good meal, this restaurant is really good."

Tang Xuan couldn't refute, so she could only nod her head.

Qian Susu really didn't say anything about introducing her boyfriend to Tang Xuan, and started chatting with Tang Xuan about the dishes while eating.

On the surface Tang Xuan listened very carefully, but actually she was absent-minded and tasteless.

She was very conflicted, and even impulsively agreed to ask Qian Susu to introduce her boyfriend to see what Qian Susu would do next.

But when she thought of Xiao Zihan, she couldn't agree.

Tang Xuan was worrying to herself, but she didn't realize that Qian Susu had a panoramic view of her expression, and the corners of her mouth were raised, as if she had a plan in mind.

"Sister Susu, thank you so much tonight, I'll treat you to dinner next time." After eating and chatting for a while, Tang Xuan and Qian Susu left the Japanese grocery store and bid farewell at Xingda Plaza.

Qian Susu took out the car keys from her bag and waved her hand, "Okay, don't be polite to me anymore, I've already answered your sister, and I should treat you to dinner."

As he spoke, he took a few steps to open the door of a red car, held the door open and said to Tang Xuan, "I'll tell you about that, think about it."

"……it is good."

"Then see you next time, bye, be careful on the way back."

"Goodbye, Miss Su Su."

Tang Xuan watched Qian Susu's car drive onto the road and blend into the traffic flow.The smile she had been hanging on all night finally broke down.

After laughing all night, her face froze.

Tang Xuan stood on the square and enjoyed the cool breeze for a few minutes before walking to the bus stop, planning to take the last bus back.

The bus at night was empty. Tang Xuan leaned tiredly on the seat, looking at her own reflection on the window glass, lost in thought.

If she didn't have Xiao Zihan as a boyfriend, she thought she would agree to Qian Susu without hesitation, and see what Qian Susu would do next.

But without Xiao Zihan, it would be impossible for her to find Qian Susu, and it would be impossible for her to have this opportunity.

Tang Xuan was a little unwilling to give up this opportunity to go deeper, but it was even more impossible to give up Xiao Zihan.

"Hey." Tang Xuan sighed heavily, very troubled.

Back in the dormitory, Huang Tingting had already returned. Seeing Tang Xuan, she rushed up excitedly to show Tang Xuan her bracelet.

"Isn't it beautiful!"

"It's pretty." Tang Xuan asked casually, "The monitor bought it for you?"

"Ah? How do you know?"

Tang Xuan laughed, walked over and threw the bag on the table, she fell on the bed like a dead body, "I guess."

Huang Tingting flattened her mouth arrogantly, "He made me unhappy today, this is an apology gift he bought for me."

"...What kind of monster are you?"

"What do you call me a demon? He was flirting with other girls, and I caught him straight."

When Tang Xuan heard Huang Tingting's tone, she probably wronged the monitor again, and didn't bother arguing with Huang Tingting, so she closed her eyes and complained lightly, "Which girl is so unlucky to hit you in the muzzle."

Huang Tingting ignored the sarcasm in Tang Xuan's tone, sat down beside Tang Xuan's bed, and said mysteriously, "The one in class three with big breasts, Zhang Qing, do you have any impression?"

"The one you pointed out to me?" Huang Tingting pointed out to Tang Xuan many times, and Tang Xuan still had a little impression.

"That's right, that's right." Huang Tingting looked disgusted, "It's okay to wear revealing clothes and be arrogant, but she dared to wink at my man, hmph, what a shame."

Tang Xuan was speechless. She frowned and opened her eyes, "Tingting, it's not wrong to have big breasts. She is free to wear whatever clothes she wants. You can't talk like that."

Huang Tingting looked dissatisfied, "I'm not wrong! She has a bad reputation!"

Tang Xuan: "... Where did you hear that people have a bad reputation?"

"Don't believe me." Huang Tingting got up, went to close the door of the dormitory, and then sat down next to Tang Xuan again, and said mysteriously in a low voice, "I heard from the girls in her class that she has been raped by the outsiders. The old men take care of them and act as mistresses for those old men."

"What?" Tang Xuan looked suspicious.

"Really! I heard that Zhang Qing's family is a small place, and the conditions are very average. When she was a freshman, her monthly living expenses were only 1000 yuan, and her food and clothing were very ordinary. Since she was taken care of by an old man, now everyone The monthly expenses are tens of thousands, and the bag she usually carries in class costs more than 1."

Tang Xuan knew that Huang Tingting liked to gossip, but she also knew that Huang Tingting never messed around with people, so it was definitely not groundless to be able to say something like this.

But Tang Xuan still didn't want to define it for those who didn't understand. She tried to explain, "Maybe Zhang Qing earned it by herself. Now she can make some money by doing a small business and working part-time."

Huang Tingting rolled her eyes, "Make money quietly? Who would believe it? Besides, all the girls in her class saw her come back in the old man's car, with hickey marks on her neck."

Now, Tang Xuan didn't know how to defend herself.

It's true that college girls are mistresses outside, and this has already been reported, so it's not unusual.

"Even if you are a mistress, that is someone else's business and has nothing to do with us. You should talk less in the future and don't cause trouble." Tang Xuan persuaded Huang Tingting.

Huang Tingting cut her teeth, said through gritted teeth: "If she doesn't provoke my man, I wouldn't bother to talk to her."

Tang Xuan patted the back of Huang Tingting's hand, and said earnestly, "Leave her alone, you have to believe that if she is really the kind of person who is someone else's mistress, the squad leader won't take a fancy to her. There's no need to hurt someone like this. your feelings."

"Hmph, that makes sense." Huang Tingting turned the shiny chain on her wrist, pouted and said to herself, "If his vision is that bad, I don't want him."

"Okay, don't make trouble. I'll lie down for a few minutes. I'm so tired." Tang Xuan put her arms on her eyes and said weakly.

Only then did Huang Tingting focus on Tang Xuan, and teased Tang Xuan in a strange voice, "Why, dating Xiao Zihan made you so tired?"

Tang Xuan was silent.

Huang Tingting had a smirk on her face, and continued, "You guys are all dating to this point, yet Xiao Zihan is willing to let you back. I thought you weren't coming back tonight just now."

Tang Xuan remained silent.

"By the way, you told Xiao Zihan that you were going to move back to the dormitory, and he really let you back. He was angry or not, you..."

Tang Xuan opened her eyes, eyes filled with anger.

"I understand, stop!" Huang Tingting put her hand on her mouth, made a zip movement, got up and slipped away quickly.

"Hey." Tang Xuan sighed again.

On Xiao Zihan's side, she hadn't had time to say anything yet.Xiao Zihan seemed to be quite busy during this period, and often went back to Xiao's house, so he didn't ask her to go back to live.

Otherwise, she doesn't have so much free time.

Tang Xuan closed her eyes and turned around. In her mind, the scene of chatting with Qian Susu tonight appeared again.

Qian Susu is warm and friendly from the beginning to the end, and her attitude is just like her biological sister.

As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be demons. Tang Xuan couldn't believe that a shrewd woman like Qian Susu would treat someone she just met so unrequitedly.

Moreover, he also offered to introduce her boyfriend.

No matter how much Tang Xuan thought about it, she couldn't understand what Qian Susu's real purpose was.
