Chapter 325 Cinderella, White Moonlight

Chapter 325 Cinderella, White Moonlight

Chapter 325 Cinderella, White Moonlight

The wind blows through the night market outside the National Taiwan Normal University.

Wrapped in the aroma of various snacks, I shuttled through the crowd.

The flags and banners on the stalls fluttered in the wind, making rustling sounds.

"Iced lemon tea, sour plum soup, would you like some? They are refreshing and delicious."

Qian Lele was still squatting in his own corner, holding a rechargeable light bulb in his hand.

In front of me was a small blue cart with an insulated foam box on it, filled with beverage bottles surrounded by ice packs.

Handmade tea, priced at 6 yuan per cup, a clean and tidy stall, and simple and beautiful female college students.

The competition in this night market is very good.

From time to time, passers-by would come up to buy a cup. She even has repeat customers.

Following Tang Song's suggestion, she switched from bracelets to iced tea, and her side business also reached its peak.

After get off work every day, 25 cups are made, with an average profit of 4 yuan per cup. After selling them all, the net income is 100 yuan per day.

Of course, not all of them can be sold out every day, and the remaining ones are considered losses.

However, the profits are considerable.

At this rate, she should be able to earn more than 4000 yuan from this side job by the end of summer vacation.

The budget for the computer, which was originally planned to cost 1900 yuan, can be raised a bit.

Thinking of this, Qian Lele showed a satisfied and happy smile on his face.

She has hands and feet, and she has so many classmates, friends and teachers who are willing to help her, so her life is not difficult.

As long as you hold on until graduation, you can start making money wholeheartedly.

I heard that the current employment situation in the computer industry is very grim, and I don’t know if I will be able to find an ideal job by then.

But it doesn’t matter, there will always be a way out when you reach the mountain, and the most difficult days have been overcome.

Just as she was imagining the future, Zhang Wen next to her suddenly screamed.

"What's wrong, Sister Wen? Are you burned? I have an ice pack here!" Qian Lele quickly stood up.

Zhang Wen had been scalded by a plate of grilled sausages before, and this was his reaction.

“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Zhang Wen shook his head vigorously, holding the phone, his face flushed as he said, “Bei Yuwei! It’s Bei Yuwei! She really appeared on the streets of Yancheng! It’s a pity that she’s not in our area, otherwise I would run over and block her right now!”

She has been addicted to watching "Listening to the Rain" recently and is so fascinated by Bei Yuwei that she even bought some peripherals and put them on her camper van booth.

After hearing this, Qian Lele finally felt relieved.

The owner of the jelly on the other side asked in surprise, "Zhang Wen, the Bei Yuwei you are talking about, is that Chu Ruolin from "Listening to the Rain"?"

"Yeah! Yes! Brother Liang, you can see it by watching Douyin. Bei Yuwei landed in a women's clothing live broadcast room in Yancheng Yunsheng Plaza." Zhang Wen excitedly said loudly: "The female anchor was shocked on the spot. It was really super interesting. Now that live broadcast clip has become a hot search. Douyin, Weibo, WeChat public accounts, the whole network is discussing it."

Brother Liang opened his phone and took a look. He couldn't help but sighed: "This is really a wealth of wealth. That female anchor named He Yiyi is really popular."

"Yes, the number of fans increased by 20 in half an hour! Now the live broadcast room has over 10, and the gifts have not stopped. This is the influence of the top streamers!"

Liang Ge was full of envy and joked, "I will also study selling jelly through live streaming in the future. What if I can also encounter such a great opportunity?"

Listening to the conversation between the two, Qian Lele just smiled and didn't feel much.

All of this was too far away from her, too unreal.

It's like hearing that someone won a 500 million jackpot.

"Le Le! Le Le!" A shout suddenly came from a distance.

Qian Lele looked up, stood up with a smile and waved.

Then, Ding Yao, who was wearing a champagne-colored sleeveless dress, walked over quickly and hugged her tightly, "Good evening, my dear Lele, I missed you so much!"

"Yaoyao, are you back from abroad? When?"

Qian Lele had previously seen on WeChat Moments that Ding Yao went on a trip to South Korea with her parents.

"I arrived in Yancheng this afternoon and slept at home for half a day. I went back to school to get something and came to see you." Ding Yao adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose. "I knew you were here right away. You are such a hard-working little bee."

The two chatted lively for a while.

Ding Yao glanced at the stall in front of her and said with a smile, "You still have 14 cups left, right? I'll buy them all!"

Qian Lele was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, today is Friday, this kind of ice drink is very popular, it will be sold out in an hour at most."

"That's not what I meant." Ding Yao took her hand and said, "My friend is having a barbecue on the terrace at home and asked me to come over to eat with him. I was originally thinking of buying some drinks, and it just so happens that you have some here, and it's also reassuring, so we don't have to run around everywhere."

"Oh, so that's it." Qian Lele blushed a little, "That's fine."

What she feared most was that others would pity her, especially when that person was her friend.

"Let's go, my car is over there, follow me!"

Qian Lele closed the lid of the incubator, said goodbye to Sister Wen, and quickly followed.

Ding Yao was wearing a gorgeous and beautiful dress and blingbling sandals.

The summer breeze blew, and the pleasant smell of perfume drifted into Qian Lele's nostrils.

She gripped the handle of the cart tightly and lowered her head slightly.

Walk out of the pedestrian street and turn left.

Ding Yao stopped next to a Mercedes-Benz GLC on the side of the road.

The lights flash and the vehicle unlocks.

"Lele, just put it in the trunk."

"Yeah, okay." Qian Lele put the cart behind the car, opened the thermal foam box, and just as he was about to put the drinks in, he stopped again.

In addition to an exquisite and beautiful storage box, there are also some fruits, shopping bags and gift boxes placed randomly inside.

She was afraid that her drinks would be ruined.

"Oh, right!" Noticing her reaction, Ding Yao came over with a smile, picked up a shopping bag from inside and carried it out, "This is the gift I brought back for you from South Korea, a pair of Adidas sneakers, they were on clearance sale, much cheaper than in China. There are also chocolates and facial masks, all bought at a special price, I can't use them all myself, so I'm giving them to you.

Also, you are not allowed to say no, the shoes are bought according to your size and you can’t return them.”

As he spoke, Ding Yao stuffed the shopping bag into her hands.

Then I put the entire foam box and the trolley into the trunk.
"It's quite hot now, and everyone likes to drink iced drinks. Why don't you come with me? We can eat some skewers, chat, and take a rest. I'll take you back to school in the evening."

She knew that Qian Lele's friend worked day and night to make money, and also had to find time to study, so she must be very tired.

But she is extremely sensitive and has low self-esteem, so she doesn't want to get hurt.

That's why I found an excuse to bring her here, just to let her relax.

Looking at the white shopping bag in her hand and listening to Ding Yao's words, Qian Lele pursed her lips.

After a long silence, he nodded and said, "Thank you, Yaoyao."

"Let's go, get in the car."

"Ah."

The engine started and the car's headlights came on.

Qian Lele sat on the comfortable and soft leather seat and twisted her body a little uneasily.

She understood the other party's good intentions, but she felt even more uneasy and embarrassed.

Ding Yao’s birthday is next weekend, and she has been thinking about what kind of gift to buy her.

When it was my birthday last year, she not only gave me a cake, but also a very expensive down jacket.

She also wanted to give him an expensive and beautiful gift in return to express her feelings.

But she really can't afford much money now.

……

The car stopped outside Huajing Oasis in Yuhua District.

Ding Yao took out a plastic shopping bag from the storage box, put the lemon tea and sour plum soup into it, locked the car, and walked into the community gate with Qian Lele.

Beautiful greenery and high-end facilities make it just like a park.

The buildings in the community are not very tall, and the light-colored buildings are very beautiful.

Qian Lele followed Ding Yao closely, carrying a plastic bag.

I made a phone call downstairs and took the elevator to my destination smoothly.

"Ding Dong~Ding Dong~" Ding Yao pressed the doorbell, and the brown security door was quickly pushed open.

A sunny and handsome boy walked out, wearing casual shorts, an oversized T-shirt, and a very trendy hedgehog hair.

"Hello, Haoyu." Ding Yao smiled and patted his shoulder. "Have Meiqi and the others arrived?"

"Everyone is here, except you. Yaoyao, you are so annoying. You have to run to school." The boy complained. Maybe he had a cold, so he spoke in a mumbling voice.

Then, his expression froze for a moment, and he said in surprise: "Is this the Qian Lele you mentioned? Oh my god, she's so pretty?"

Walking into the room, Ding Yao introduced with a smile: "His name is Zhang Haoyu, he is my high school classmate, and this is his house."

"Hello." Qian Lele smiled a little embarrassedly.

Zhang Haoyu looked at Qian Lele's pretty face and said with a smile: "Nice to meet you, Lele. I've always asked Yaoyao to introduce a beautiful girlfriend to me. This guy finally did a good thing today."

"Alright, alright, Lele is shy, you'll scare the girl like this."

With a "bang", the door was closed.

Ding Yao pushed Zhang Haoyu's back and walked inside.

Qian Lele gripped the plastic bag with a little force and looked around.

This is a mezzanine and the area looks very large.

The interior decoration is exquisite and high-end, much better than Teacher Jiang’s apartment.

The three of them went up the stairs to the second floor and pushed open the small door in the southeast corner.

A top-floor terrace of more than 40 square meters appeared in front of us, brightly lit.

The ground is paved with wooden strips and dotted with flowers and plants.

There is a barbecue oven at the edge of the terrace, and bursts of aroma waft over.

Several young men and women were sitting on the lounge chairs under an umbrella, drinking beer and drinks in their hands. The table was filled with various skewers, snacks and cakes.

"Yaoyao is here?" "Yaoyao."...

"Isn't this our Normal University's Cinderella? Was she finally brought out by Yaoyao? Haha."

Ding Yao said unhappily, "What Cinderella? My name is Qian Lele. Yujiao, please speak properly."

"Good evening." Qian Lele nodded awkwardly.

She knew the person who called her "Cinderella", her name was Du Jiao, and she was also a member of the Normal University Innovation and Entrepreneurship Society, but she was one year older than her.

As for the other people, she didn't know them.

She has actually gotten used to the name "Cinderella".

Her photo was previously posted on the school forum, attracting considerable attention.

Because he lived frugally and worked part-time every day, I don't know who started it, but he got this nickname for some reason.

After greeting each other, everyone sat in the middle of the terrace.

Ding Yao touched the bag in Qian Lele's hand and said with a smile: "I brought you some iced drinks, you're welcome."

Qian Lele quickly opened the bag, took out the drinks one by one and put them on the table, "This is the tea I made myself. The light yellow one is lemon tea, and the black one is sour plum soup."

Hearing her words, Du Jiao picked up a can of sour plum soup, looked up and asked, "Le Le, is this what you sell at the stall? How much is a bottle?"

"6 yuan." Qian Lele explained awkwardly, "This sour plum soup uses better sour plum paste, and it also contains dried osmanthus. It tastes very good. The black tea bags used for lemon tea are also purchased by me at the market, and the lemons are also very fresh."

From the way these people are dressed, we can tell that they are all children from wealthy families.

Moreover, the drinks and beer on the table looked very expensive, and she was worried that they would be disgusted.

"Then I have to try it." Zhang Haoyu smiled, picked up a can of lemon tea, put in a straw, took a big sip, gave a thumbs up and said, "Nice! It's delicious! Come on, let's add WeChat, you send me the address of the stall, and I'll go directly to you when I want to drink it later."

As he spoke, he picked up his phone, opened the WeChat QR code and handed it to Qian Lele.

Qian Lele was stunned for a moment, then quickly took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened WeChat, and scanned the QR code to add a friend.

The people around immediately burst into laughter and started joking around.

"Do you want to drink lemon tea? I won't hesitate to expose you." "You must be attracted to her!"

"LeLe, you better be careful."

...

Hearing the teasing sounds around her, Qian Lele's face immediately turned red, and she subconsciously looked at Ding Yao next to her.

Ding Yao leaned close to her ear and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? It won't hurt to get to know her. Haha."

The reason she brought Qian Lele here today was also for this purpose.

Zhang Haoyu's family is very well-off and he is a reliable person. In her opinion, he is a good match for Qian Lele.

"I..." Qian Lele opened his mouth and then fell silent again.

The people present were all somewhat unfamiliar to her, so she felt very uncomfortable and it was difficult for her to say some things.

Because of family reasons, she never thought about falling in love.

Du Jiao looked at the two people who were being booed, and her expression gradually became ugly.

His eyes flickered, he clapped his hands vigorously, and said with a smile: "Hey, hey, hey, don't you see that Lele is unhappy?

Cinderella's goal is the prince holding the crystal shoes, and Haoyu may not be in her eyes.

Don’t you think so? Lele! "

Qian Lele said awkwardly: "No, I'm not unhappy."

"Oh?" Du Jiao leaned forward, looked into the other person's eyes, and said teasingly, "So what you mean is... you like Haoyu?"

"No, that's not what I meant." Qian Lele bit her teeth lightly, looking anxious.

Ding Yao immediately interrupted by waving her hand: "Stop, stop, stop, all of you, be quiet for a moment!"

"Okay, okay, it was just a joke. Look at the way you two are." Du Jiao spread her hands helplessly.

She is also a member of the Innovation and Entrepreneurship Club. She knows Qian Lele's personality very well and knows what methods can best stimulate him.

After her interruption, the previous ambiguous and booing atmosphere disappeared.

It happens to be cloudy today, and the temperature is neither too high nor too low, which is indeed very suitable for outdoor barbecue.

Everyone was grilling various marinated skewers while drinking wine and chatting.

They are all college students, and the things they talk about are school and their summer vacation life.

Qian Lele sat next to Ding Yao, occasionally eating two skewers of barbecue handed to him by others, and behaved very quietly.

Although Ding Yao would chat with her from time to time, she still felt embarrassed and uneasy.

The daily topics they talk about are fashion, bars, concerts, private restaurants, overseas travel, private clubs...

Occasionally they would talk about each other's families, which company they were executives of, or simply which bosses they were.

Few people were interested in the lemon tea and sour plum soup she brought.

They prefer craft beer, freshly squeezed juice and cocktails.

Qian Lele sighed helplessly.

...

The wind on the terrace grew stronger, the sky became overcast, and the air was tinged with the smell of damp earth.

Qian Lele said a little embarrassedly: "Yaoyao, it's very late, and there may be thunderstorms later. I have to go to work tomorrow, so I have to go back."

Ding Yao raised her wrist to check the time. It was already 9:40.

She knew that her friend had a regular schedule, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you home."

"Why don't I go and take you there?" Zhang Haoyu suddenly stood up and said, "Yaoyao, you seem to have drunk Meiqi's cocktail just now, so you'd better not drive."

"Uh..." Ding Yao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said, "Oh, yes, Haoyu, thank you for making the trip. It's just at the south gate of the Normal University, and it only takes a few minutes to drive there."

As she spoke, she opened her bag, took out the car keys and threw them over. "The car is on the left side of your east gate. It's easy to find."

"OK, leave it to me!" Zhang Haoyu smiled and turned around and said, "Let's go, classmate Lele. I still have a cold, but I haven't had a drop of alcohol."

Qian Lele stood there hesitating for a moment, then nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Although she knew what Zhang Haoyu meant, her incubator and cart were still in Ding Yao's car, so she couldn't refuse.

After saying goodbye, the two got up and walked out.

The sound of booing and joking was heard again behind me.

Go out, go downstairs, and walk out of the community.

Along the way, Zhang Haoyu was chatting with Qian Lele about her part-time job in a coffee shop.

Qian Lele behaved very politely and deliberately kept a distance from the other party.

"Patta-patta-patta-" Raindrops fell from the sky and hit the exposed skin.

The wind blew and it was still a little cold.

"Wow, it's raining! It's finally cool." Zhang Haoyu pressed the car key, opened the passenger door of the Mercedes-Benz GLC, and said with a gentlemanly smile: "Princess, please get in the car."

Qian Lele's expression paused, and he sat down awkwardly.

"Bang!" The car door closed.

Zhang Haoyu sat in the driver's seat, started the car skillfully, and drove directly towards the Normal University without using any navigation.

"I am studying in Rongcheng. Like Ding Yao, I will be a senior at the beginning of the semester. I will come to Yancheng for work and internship. I have already found a company. It is in Yuhua District."

"This house in Huajing Green Oasis was given to me by my family as a reward after I was admitted to university. It can also be regarded as a small house for me and my girlfriend in the future."

...

In the car, Zhang Haoyu talked about his situation in a relaxed tone.

The rain gradually formed into lines and the sensor wipers began to slide.

Qian Lele clenched his hands, looked forward, and did not say anything, just hummed "hmm" from time to time.

She was still worrying in her heart about what clothes to wear and what gifts to buy for Ding Yao's birthday on the 30th.

"Cinderella!" Zhang Haoyu suddenly called her.

Qian Lele turned his head and looked at him in surprise.

"Finally, there is some reaction." Zhang Haoyu's fingers holding the steering wheel danced lightly, and the corners of his mouth rose. "In fact, I think this name is also quite good. In the fairy tale, Cinderella sat in the pumpkin carriage, changed into a gorgeous dress, stepped on crystal shoes, attended the prince's ball, and finally lived happily together."

At this point, he turned his head and looked into Qian Lele's eyes. "It's beautiful, isn't it?"

"Thank you." Qian Lele nodded and looked forward again.

The car pulled over at the intersection.

The two men got out of the car and took the incubator and cart out of the trunk.

"Let me take you there." Zhang Haoyu pulled the cart and said with a smile, "Walking in the rain is quite fun."

"No, I live in the teacher's apartment next door. It's very close."

"Don't be polite to me, let's go."

Qian Lele was about to say something when his expression suddenly froze and he looked towards a tall and straight figure in front of him.

He was wearing a solid color T-shirt and jeans, holding an umbrella in his left hand and another in his right hand.

Walking towards this side through the layers of night.

The dim street lights shone on him, and under the refraction of the rain and fog, a hazy halo was cast on him, which was very beautiful.

Tang Song saw that it was raining outside and went to the night market to pick me up?

Qian Lele's mouth suddenly felt dry, and a warm current wrapped around his heart.

"Brother Song!" She waved and shouted, then ran over quickly and hid under his umbrella.

Feeling the warmth from his body, I felt calmed down.

"I saw you hadn't come back yet, and it happened to be raining, so I went over to take a look." Tang Song raised his head and looked in the direction of Zhang Haoyu, "Are you out playing with your friends?"

"Yeah." Qian Lele nodded and said with a smile: "But my drinks are all sold out. Thank you Brother Song for picking me up!"

Tang Song smiled and handed over the umbrella in his hand, "Let's go."

"Uh-huh."

Qian Lele opened the umbrella and walked quickly to Zhang Haoyu's side. "Brother Zhang, my roommate is here to pick me up. I won't bother you anymore. Bye~, be careful when you go back!"

After saying that, he took the cart and looked in the direction of Tang Song.

Hearing her words, Zhang Haoyu paused and looked at the boy who was walking towards him.

He is very handsome and has a good figure. He wears black-framed glasses and looks calm and focused.

He was just dressed very casually and his hair was messy.

As simple as Qian Lele.

Their eyes met, and Tang Song nodded at him calmly.

Then, he walked towards the apartment door side by side with Qian Lele.

After watching the two figures disappear, Zhang Haoyu shook his head and smiled, then got into the driver's seat of the GLC in a casual manner.

He felt that he was good in every aspect, and since he had met a girl he liked, he would pursue her boldly.

Time will prove that he is the winner.

...

"Brother Song, my friend Ding Yao came to visit me at the night market today. It just so happened that she was going to have a barbecue with her friends, so she bought all these drinks from me. I went over to deliver the goods and ate a few bites while I was there..."

"The boy just now is called Zhang Haoyu, he is my friend's high school classmate..."

"Have you heard? Bei Yuwei suddenly appeared on the streets of Yancheng and was bumped into by a female anchor. That scene was quite interesting..."

Raindrops fell one after another, weaving countless fine silk threads under the dim light, as if covering the world with a layer of mysterious veil.

Occasionally, rain wet her hair and clothes, but Qian Lele didn't care. She just kept talking about what she had encountered today.

Whether she found it interesting or not, she told Tang Song about it.

She didn't know why, but she suddenly felt an endless desire to share.

……

The plane slowly landed at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport.

A group of six people got off the plane and got into the waiting business car.

Leaning on the zero-gravity chair, Su Yu closed his eyes tiredly.

Cheng Xiaoxi, the assistant sitting in the passenger seat, said softly, "Sister Yu, something happened tonight at Songmei Clothing, which you asked me to pay attention to, and it's related to our company."

"Hmm? Speak." Su Yu's eyes opened instantly, his amber pupils clean and pure.

"The company's artist Bei Yuwei appeared in the live broadcast room of Songmei Clothing anchor He Yiyi as a lucky passerby at around 7 o'clock in the evening, and took the initiative to show her face and greet the audience. Due to her current high popularity, anchor He Yiyi also became a hot search, and her fans increased by nearly one million..."

Cheng Xiaoxi was still speaking, describing in detail the subsequent impact of this sudden incident.

Su Yu pondered for a moment in confusion, then his brows gradually relaxed, and his slender, shiny fingers tapped the armrest rhythmically.

He said calmly: "I understand. I will arrange some high-quality endorsements and film and television resources for Bei Yuwei."

"Okay Sister Yu!"

Su Yu pursed her red lips, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

Without Tang Song's order, they did not dare to use their influence to interfere with his operations.

Now one of the small artists under his company accidentally helped his company, and it did not cause any negative reaction from Tang Song.

That proves that there is nothing wrong with this matter.

The only pity is that the company is called "Songmei" instead of "Songyu".

"Oh, right." Su Yu opened his eyes again, "What is Liu Qingning from Century Intelligence doing recently?"

Cheng Xiaoxi picked up her phone and looked at it, then said softly, "She applied for a loan from the company. I heard that she wanted to buy a house in Yancheng, and she just happened to come across a suitable house."

Su Yu looked up at the bright moonlight outside the window and sighed with a complicated look.
