Chapter 24 Ice Cream
Chapter 24 Ice Cream
Ling Mo was wearing a loose sportswear and was somewhat out of place with the people around her who were wearing short-sleeved shirts and shorts, but she didn't care about their looks at all.
The temperature outside is so high that it is easy to get burned if your skin is exposed directly to the sun.
When we arrived at the women's clothing area, there were quite a few people here, but few stopped to buy clothes. After all, everyone's money is not enough to buy food, so where would they get money to buy clothes?
Moreover, these clothes cost thousands of dollars, and their quality is not necessarily better than those on the market.
As she walked, Ling Mo came to a place where ice cream was sold. From a distance, she saw many people stopping in front of the freezers. After looking for a long time, they left.
Ling Mo walked over and took a look, and instantly understood why these people were acting like this.
A box of ice cream costs 1880, and it’s only a small box.
If this price had been in the past, it would have been enough to become a hot topic.
Ling Mo shook his head and turned to leave with those people. It was not that he couldn't afford it, but there was no need to waste the money.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind.
"Ling Mo!"
Hearing someone calling his name from behind, Ling Mo turned around and saw that it was a classmate of the original owner. They had not been in touch since the college entrance examination.
Ji Zhizhi brought two companions to Ling Mo, looked her up and down, and pretended to be surprised and said, "Ling Mo didn't expect to meet you here. Why didn't you go to our class graduation party before?"
"That's right. You usually aren't very sociable. I didn't expect that you didn't even go to the last class reunion. Do you look down on us classmates?" Ji Zhizhi's little follower next to her deliberately shouted.
"Qianqian, why do you say that? Classmate Ling Mo is just not good at socializing. He definitely didn't mean it." Ji Zhizhi said with a fake glare at Li Qian beside her.
"Ling Mo, don't bother with Qian Qian. She just speaks her mind. But I heard that your parents seem to have had an accident, and your family owes a lot of money. All the property your parents left behind has been taken away to pay off the debts. You must have had a very difficult time during this period."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qian and another little follower beside him laughed with glee.
At this time, Ji Zhizhi seemed to react belatedly. She covered her mouth and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, did I hurt you? I didn't mean it. I'm so sorry. Ling Mo, you are usually so generous. You will definitely forgive me, right?"
Ji Zhizhi didn't like Ling Mo from the first moment she saw him.
As a transfer student, Ling Mo took away her position as the most beautiful girl in class right after she arrived. She also had both parents, a harmonious family, and was a good student.
Both teachers and classmates have been attracted to Ling Mo since she transferred to the school.
But Ling Mo acted as if he didn't care, which made her even more angry.
God knows how happy she was since she heard that Ling Mo's parents were in trouble, especially when she heard that she started selling her property, she was even more convinced that she had to do so in order to pay off her debts.
Ji Zhizhi looked at Ling Mo, with deep malice in her eyes.
Ling Mo watched these people talking to themselves. These childish tricks did not bother her at all. She just felt like a fool for stopping and wasting time.
However, in the original owner's memory, it seemed that she had little interaction with Ji Zhizhi. After all, the original owner was introverted and a transfer student. She had a cold relationship with classmates and would not even say a word except for necessary communication.
As if noticing Ling Mo's look of idiot, Ji Zhizhi frowned and said unhappily, "What are you looking at me with! Your family is bankrupt, so you probably won't have the chance to eat ice cream in the future. Just think of it as my treat this time."
This made Ling Mo, who was about to turn around and leave, stop and said, "You said it."
This was the first time Ling Mo had spoken to her formally, and Ji Zhizhi had a bad feeling for no reason. But once something is said, it can be taken back. Ji Zhizhi said stubbornly, "Of course." Then she pointed at the refrigerator and waved her hand, "Take whatever you want."
Hearing this, Ling Mo's lips curled up into a faint smile. It was the first time he met someone who took the initiative to be a sucker.
In line with the principle of not taking advantage of a bargain, Ling Mo turned around and waved to the waiter not far away, "I want all the ice cream here."
After saying that, he thought about it again and added, "Do you have an incubator here?"
"Forget it. The incubator is so small that it probably can't hold much. I'll give you an address and you can just deliver it to my house."
The waiter quickly found an insulated box and took out one of each type of ice cream from the freezer.
After that, under everyone's stunned gaze, Ling Mo pointed at Ji Zhizhi and said, "She pays."
The waiter who came to his senses first swallowed and forced a polite smile on his face, saying, "Because there are too many, we need some time to calculate the prices. You may have to wait a little longer."
Hearing this, Ling Mo waved his hand and said generously, "It's okay, just deliver the things to me. I'm not paying for it anyway."
She saw what happened just now. These three girls were obviously here to cause trouble.
The waitress looked at Ling Mo with pity. She had never imagined that such a little girl would have lost both her parents.
Aren’t the words of these three little girls just now just rubbing salt into other people’s wounds?
"Sir, please follow me." The waiter said to Ji Zhizhi with a smile.
"You deliberately!"
Facing the angry Ji Zhizhi, Ling Mo smiled appropriately and said softly, "Thank you for your treat, Ji Zhizhi."
Seeing Ling Mo was about to leave, Ji Zhizhi hurriedly went up to hold Ling Mo back, "Wait a minute, you are not allowed to leave."
Ling Mo turned around and looked at her, "Do you want to regret it?"
"I didn't." Ji Zhizhi retorted subconsciously.
"Since you don't want to go back on your word, then why are you holding me and not letting me go?" Ling Mo tilted his head and looked at her with a half-smile.
At this moment, Ji Zhizhi suddenly felt that Ling Mo in front of her was very strange, completely different from how he was in school before.
While the two were arguing, the waiter had already calculated the price of the ice cream, which was over 200,000 yuan in total.
Ji Zhizhi's face instantly turned ugly when she heard the price. It was true that her family was rich, but they didn't allow her to squander it, not to mention spending two hundred thousand just for an ice cream.
She originally just wanted to humiliate Ling Mo.
Looking at the bill handed over by the waiter, Ji Zhizhi refused to take it, and the two followers behind her no longer had their previous arrogance. They all lowered their heads with wandering eyes.
Many people around heard the commotion and stopped to watch, looking like they were enjoying a good show.
Noticing the people around her looking at her with appraising or mocking eyes, Ji Zhizhi turned to look at Ling Mo, "Are you satisfied now?"
