Chapter 777: 201: Wise Uncle Du, ignorance! _6

Take for instance the coveted membership card to Guó Sè Tiānxiāng; it’s not something you can simply buy with money, you have to seize the right moment.

She had heard of Guó Sè Tiānxiāng before and always wanted to go, but there was always a queue, and she hated having to lower herself to wait in a line, so it remained just a thought. Now, someone was actually offering her a membership card and pleading for her to accept it.

These days, Zheng Xianjing had been feeling extraordinarily pleased with herself, but gradually, she started to become restless.

Because Wang Zeqi hadn’t visited her for a week.

That’s not right…

Logically speaking, Wang Zeqi should have come long ago.

Could something have gone wrong?

Zheng Xianjing promptly went to Zheng Lingling to discuss her concerns, “Mom, what do you think is going on?”

Zheng Lingling didn’t take this matter to heart and laughed, saying, “There’s nothing to worry about. If Master Du is trying to test you, hanging you out to dry for a month is normal. For now, all you need to do is keep still. Don’t be like an ant on a hot pan, then you wouldn’t be any different from those vulgar fans.”

Playing hard to get wasn’t only a strategy women used, men of power and influence would use it too.

After her speech, Zheng Lingling gave a meaningful reminder. “Xianjing, if you want to achieve something big, you have to be patient. The longer you lay low, the greater the rewards.”

Being reassured by Zheng Lingling like this made Zheng Xianjing feel a lot better. “Mhm, Mom, you’re right. I know what to do.”

Zheng Lingling nodded. “Good.”

There weren’t many classes in school these days, so Zheng Xianjing stayed home every day. Those who wanted to curry favor with her were practically trampling over the Zheng household’s doorstep.

Seeing so many visitors bringing gifts to Zheng Xianjing every day, Mrs. Zheng couldn’t help but say, “Xianjing, there’s an old saying that one shouldn’t accept rewards for nothing. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to accept these gifts from other people?”

Inappropriate?

What’s inappropriate about it?

These weren’t things she wanted, but things others were pleading for her to accept.

That old hag, she’s only being critical because Ni Yang’s popularity had been overshadowed by her!

She was too much!

Zheng Xianjing said with a smile, “Grandmother, I understand what you’re saying. I don’t want to accept their gifts either, but they insist on giving them to me. Furthermore, they haven’t asked me to do anything in return. They give me gifts and I also return gifts to them. This is normal among friends.”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zheng felt somewhat relieved. “It’s fine as long as you’re returning gifts. Us Zhengs shouldn’t do anything to provoke gossip.”

Ni Yang had been very busy recently. She had to study the Thirteen Ghost Needle Techniques, manage the sound system at the shop, visit the Noodle Restaurant, Milk Tea Shop, Ice-Skin Jade-Body Shop, and Guó Sè Tiānxiāng regularly, and also find time to take her school exams.

After the exams, Ni Yang and Han Xiaoyu went home together.

Han Xiaoyu didn’t have a bike, so Ni Yang was able to give her a ride.

When they reached their destination, Han Xiaoyu jumped off from the backseat, “Yangyang, there’s still time, why don’t you come to my house and hang out?”

In her previous life, Ni Yang didn’t have many close friends, so in this life, she felt especially grateful for any friendships that came her way. She nodded, “Sure.”

Han Xiaoyu comes from an average wage-earning family.
