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.
Both her parents worked in the factory. Her father, Han Shengli, was the factory manager, her mother was the workshop director, and the two of them earned a combined monthly salary of 120 yuan. They had three children and owned a house in Beijing, living life neither too well-off nor too poorly.
They were an upper-middle-class family.
“Mom, this is my classmate Ni Yang. She’s our school’s campus beauty and the all-rounder I’ve been telling you about, who jumped grades and even came first in the exams! Just call her Yangyang!”
All parents like high-achieving girls. On hearing Han Xiaoyu say this, Han’s mother was quick to say, “Oh, this is Ni Yang. So the good student looks like this. Come on in and have a seat, come on in and have a seat. Xiaoyu has told me all about you. You don’t mind if I call you Yangyang, do you?”
Ni Yang is not only an excellent student but also very attractive, it’s hard not to like her.
“I don’t mind.” Ni Yang shook her head with a smile, “That’s what names are for.”
Just look at the way this girl speaks.

Everything about Ni Yang seemed perfect to Han’s mom. On the other hand, Xiaoyu could do no right in her eyes.
In conclusion, all the good daughters belong to others.
Seeing Ni Yang’s manners, Han’s mother couldn’t help but offer her the treasured oranges from home, “Yangyang, have an orange. Don’t hesitate to make yourself at home at Auntie’s place. I heard from Xiaoyu that you’ve helped her a lot with her studies. Thank you so much.”
Ever since she became Ni Yang’s classmate, Xiaoyu’s grades had significantly improved!
The teacher even said it was a sure thing that she would get into a university.
Ni Yang chuckled, “Auntie, you don’t have to be so formal. It’s normal for classmates to help each other.”
Her words resonated deeply with Han’s mother, and she thought to herself how considerate and endearing this girl was.
Han’s mother hurriedly peeled an orange for Ni Yang, “Yangyang, eat up and don’t be a stranger to Auntie!”
Ni Yang took the fruit with a word of thanks, “Thank you, Auntie.”
Han’s mother said, “You girls chat. I’ll go out and take a walk.”
Young people have their own topics to chat about. She couldn’t contribute to the conversation and would rather go out and have a chat with some friends. It’s hard to find a day to rest.
Ni Yang nodded, “Take care, Auntie.”
After Han’s mother left, Han Xiaoyu said, “Yangyang, do you know? My mom is usually very tight-fisted, and this is the first time she’s been so generous!”
When Han’s mother took out the oranges, Xiaoyu was shocked!
She couldn’t believe the woman in front of her was the same person who had argued and fought over a needle!
Ni Yang laughed and said, “I think Auntie is quite nice, she’s very reasonable.”
Han Xiaoyu made a merciless comment about her own mother, “She is quite reasonable, but she tends to be stingy and stubborn. You don’t know this, but years ago she had a fight with Aunt Wang over a needle! Now the two of them wouldn’t speak to each other even when they cross paths.”
Just then, footsteps could be heard outside, “Is Aunt Han home?”
“Who is it? My mom is not home, come on in!” Han Xiaoyu called out without looking up.
In a short while, the visitor came in from the yard, “Sister Xiaoyu, you’re home. Here’s the two yuan I borrowed from your house last time. I’m returning it to you.”
“Yanyun.” Han Xiaoyu stood up from her chair, “By the way, how’s your grandmother? Is she feeling better?”
Wu Yanyun nodded, “She’s much better after taking the medicine.”
“That’s good,” Han Xiaoyu said. “Let me introduce you, Yanyun. This is my classmate and good friend, Ni Yang. Yangyang, this is Wu Yanyun, one of our neighbors. Just call her Yanyun.”
Ni Yang walked over with a smile, “Nice to meet you.”
