Chapter 74: Setting Out (1)
Ever since Wang Haoxue was terrified by the price of the bracelet worth more than 100000, she treaded carefully around You Pinyan’s blanket stall, as if the land there suddenly had become more valuable too.
Uncle Wang had a decent job, in fact, his income could be considered top-grade in this small city. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to fund his daughter’s dozens of desserts every three days.
Wang Haoxue knew her family was pretty good, but for a bracelet worth several tens of thousands, even if it was discounted to just 10000, her family couldn’t afford it.
Despite this, she still liked it in her heart. Although she told herself this bracelet would never belong to her, she couldn’t help but look it over a few times when she walked by. As long as the bracelet wasn’t sold, it may as well belong to her.
That night, she went downstairs to help her father buy soy sauce. When she passed by the toy store, she subconsciously glanced at the blanket stall by its door. But, she was surprised to find that that bracelet was gone.
She went back and forth, but it really wasn’t there.
After hesitating by the door, she finally went to talk to You Pinyan: “You sold that bracelet?”
You Pinyan was still trying to decide whether to go with He Qingwan and Su Tian to the capital when she heard Wang Haoxue ask about the bracelet. When she thought of that night’s matters, she couldn’t help but feel sour in her heart.
“Yes, ah. It was sold two days ago.”
Sold to Su Tian, Su Tian who wanted to give it to you as a birthday gift.
Although Wang Haoxue had suspicions in her heart, she couldn’t have help but feel a sense of loss when those suspicions were confirmed. Putting up a brave front, she smiled and said: “Congratulations ah. I hope your other goods can also be sold soon.”
Looking at this chubby girl’s oblivious appearance, You Pinyan felt even more sour. At this moment, she made the decision to go to the capital with Su Tian!
You Pinyan poked: “Aiyah, it’s not that important. When I go to the capital in a few days during the November break with Su Tian, I’ll just sell everything at the second-hand store there.”
“You’re going to the capital with Su Tian?!” Wang Haoxue cried, her eyes wide.
“Mm, heng.” Envious huh.
You Pinyan was smug.
Wang Haoxue: “Haha, when Su Tian told me about it a couple of days ago, she promised to bring me back some souvenirs. You guys should have a good time, ah.”
You Pinyan, whose opponent had turned the tables and won: “……”
Annoying little chubby girl.
She laughed: “Of course, of course.”
Wang Haoxue bought the soy sauce and comforted herself on the way home. It wouldn’t be too late to buy that bracelet when she had a job. Even… even if she still couldn’t buy that bracelet, that’s just life, ah. There’ll always be things that you regret and not everything you like can be yours, right?
Wang Haoxue thought that she was a very clear-headed girl.
Only this way can she live happily.
In the first ten years of his life, Liu Kaiyan lived for his parents. Later, Liu Kaiyan lived to take revenge on them. But when he met Su Tian, she opened up a new path for him.
He wanted to become better, to be qualified to be by her side and be her friend.
But, he didn’t want to follow the path that Lin Xiuping and Liu Zhaoyang had planned for him. If he did, he would always feel as if he were under their control.
He wanted to draw comics and do what he liked, but his parents just thought it was a waste of time.
Moreover, Su Tian also liked the comics he drew.
He wanted to walk down this road, regardless of the outcome. Talent alone wasn’t enough. Staying behind closed doors and building this car just meant killing off all that so-called talent.
He needed to study, to learn from others, and to develop his own style.
