Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Your Pants Are On Backwards
Zhao Yang saw her smiling charmingly at him, and his heart almost melted.
She likes him! Why else would she smile only at him?
Luckily, Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t hear his thoughts, or she would definitely have slapped him hard. She was clearly laughing uncontrollably!
Zhao Yang gulped, gazing affectionately at Su Xiaoxiao: "Comrade Su."
He flashed what he thought was a suave smile, only for her to burst out laughing even harder.
What’s happening? Is he that funny?
Su Xiaoxiao laughed until she was out of breath, finally taking pity and explained: "Zhao... Comrade Zhao, you... you’re wearing your pants backward."
Zhao Yang: "..."
He wondered why he felt something was off all afternoon, not realizing his pants were on backward.
But in this situation, there wasn’t a way to change it. He discreetly pulled out the hem of his shirt from the pants, covering the waistband, making it less noticeable.
Wait a second, Su Xiaoxiao was laughing so hard she had a flash of insight.
Pants? She felt like she was missing something related to pants but couldn’t recall it at the moment.
Forget it, if she can’t remember, let it go.
Zhao Yang approached her with a big smile: "Comrade Su, thanks for reminding me about the pants. Let me treat you to a meal as a thank you."
Su Xiaoxiao: "..."
Does this guy have an obsession with dining with her?
Or does he enjoy being a masochist, if she remembers right, twice he tried to eat with her and didn’t get anything out of it?
Su Xiaoxiao’s gaze turned complex, this is a brave warrior.
Seeing her staring at him, Zhao Yang flashed a greasy smile and flicked his hair: "Comrade Su, are you looking at me like this because you’ve fallen for me?"
Uhh, if she hadn’t been reluctant to lose the red-braised pork she had for lunch, Su Xiaoxiao definitely would have vomited on him.
Why is this guy still so greasy?
"Comrade Zhao, I have things to do today, no need for the meal."
Su Xiaoxiao was ready to slip away after speaking, but Zhao Yang obviously didn’t want to let her go.
He reached into his pocket, pulled out something, and handed it to Su Xiaoxiao: "Comrade Su, I’ll give this to you, it’s imported from Hong Kong. I spent fifteen dollars specially for you."
Su Xiaoxiao looked down, oh my, the item Zhao Yang was proudly holding was exactly the rhinestone hair comb she previously sold, and it was the first batch, the pink ones.
The expression on her face slowly froze, seriously, who’s being so unethical? Privately disturbing the market?
Fifteen bucks? She, the hard-working supplier, daringly sold it for only one dollar, and this shameless person turned around and increased the price fifteen-fold, that’s too wicked?
Privately raising prices without telling her, she hadn’t even raised hers?
Seeing her not speaking for a while, Zhao Yang thought she was overjoyed.
He immediately placed the comb in her hand: "Comrade Su, don’t feel pressured, it’s just a little fifteen-dollar trinket, no expensive item, don’t feel any burden."
Su Xiaoxiao: "..."
If he wasn’t holding the comb as carefully as a glass, she almost would have believed him.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t take the comb, her tone cool: "No need, thank you, I already have this comb."
Zhao Yang thought she felt it was too precious and was embarrassed to accept, hurriedly said: "Comrade Su, I didn’t mean anything else, I just wanted to make friends."
Just after speaking, he was shocked to see Su Xiaoxiao calmly pull out a large bunch of colorful hair combs from her bag, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, all kinds of colors were available...
Zhao Yang’s expression slowly froze, damn, he was fooled, what Hong Kong import, saying it wasn’t sold here, clearly Comrade Su had a lot.
Looking up and meeting Su Xiaoxiao’s expression as if looking at an idiot, he finally realized, the expression on Comrade Su’s face after hearing the price wasn’t surprise, but...
He clutched his chest, trembling as he spoke: "Comrade Su, where... where did you get these combs? How much did each cost?"
Su Xiaoxiao scratched her head: "My cousin bought them for me, one dollar each."
One dollar!
Zhao Yang felt like he was going to collapse, a one-dollar item that he bought for a whole fifteen bucks?
If it weren’t for boys not easily shedding tears, he would cry on the spot.
Seeing him in such a defeated state, Su Xiaoxiao rarely showed goodwill: "Comrade Zhao, to thank you for previously treating me to a meal, choose any color of comb you like."
Zhao Yang: "..."
This is it, now Comrade Zhao must have no mood for dining, Su Xiaoxiao seized the moment of his heartbreak and pushed out her bike, ready to flee.
Who knew, just after she mounted the bike, the backseat was suddenly grabbed.
Su Xiaoxiao almost got pulled down, glaring at the culprit behind, puffed angrily: "What are you doing?"
Zhao Yang saw her ready to leave and instinctively wanted to stop her without thinking.
His face turned red, hesitating for a while, suddenly having a bright idea: "Um... Comrade Su, my waist doesn’t feel good, can you take me home?"
Su Xiaoxiao: "Are you serious?"
In a brief gaze exchange, that socially dead memory replayed in his mind, Zhao Yang’s expression instantly froze.
"Jus...just kidding."
He was perfectly fine, not wanting to get kicked out by her again.
This girl looked delicate, but her kicking strength was real powerful.
But Zhao Yang was unwilling, whether his body or wallet suffered so much, surely there should be some reward?
He was racking his brain on how to create an opportunity to be alone with Su Xiaoxiao, when he saw her pulling out something from her bag, wiping the sweat off her face.
Although it’s autumn, it was still a bit hot during the day.
Coupled with being bothered by this annoying fly, Su Xiaoxiao felt more irritated.
What does this man want? After a day’s forced work, she only wanted to go home and lie down.
If he keeps bothering her, don’t blame her for sending out her anti-wolf gadget.
Just as she thought this, Zhao Yang’s face suddenly changed: "Su... Comrade Su, I just remembered I have something to do at home, I’ll go first."
Before finishing the sentence, he had already dashed away, if there weren’t any dogs around, Su Xiaoxiao would have suspected he was being chased by one.
"Crazy!"
Su Xiaoxiao cursed quietly and saw Huang Mei coming out with a bag, hurriedly grinning: "Sister Huang."
Huang Mei saw her, smiling, but before the smile could spread, it suddenly froze on her face.
Su Xiaoxiao: "..."
What’s up with everyone today? She hadn’t done anything, just wiped some sweat...
She subconsciously looked down at the handkerchief she was holding, and her expression slowly froze.
