I've Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show-Chapter 217 - 211 Zheng He Gets Captured Again and Again and Again!
Chapter 217: Chapter 211 Zheng He Gets Captured Again and Again and Again!
Han Qianyi blocked the restroom door, leaving Zheng He no choice but to exchange a few words with her, but since he was worried about the woman waiting for him, he finally spoke with impatience, "I have other important matters to attend to! If you have nothing else, I’ll be taking off!"
Seeing the time, Han Qianyi let Zheng He go.
When Zheng He got back to his seat, he saw that the dishes were almost all served, but the seat across from him was empty.
Where did that mixed girl go?!
Could she have also gone to the restroom?
Zheng He thought it over and felt that the chances of her running out on the bill before him were slim.
After all, from their conversation, it was clear that the woman had a good impression of him, so it was impossible for her to have left.
She must have gone to the restroom!
With that annoying woman gone, it was the perfect opportunity for him to hurry up and eat, maybe get in a few extra bowls of rice!
But as he ate, he began to feel something was off.
The restroom trip is taking so long? Nearly half an hour and still not back?
Zheng He had a sinking feeling.
That was the woman seemed to have actually dashed out on the bill before him!
Zheng He was baffled; everything was fine just a moment ago, how could she disappear while he was using the restroom?
Women change their minds too fast!
Zheng He was feeling depressed, he continued eating calmly but his mind was busy calculating how much this meal would cost in total.
He quickly estimated, it would be at least five or six hundred yuan.
As he continued eating, the food in his hands suddenly didn’t seem as appealing as it was in the beginning.
Zheng He looked around and saw nobody was paying him any attention, and a thought suddenly struck him.
If he left now, would anyone notice?
[What’s with Zheng He’s shifty eyes? I have a feeling he’s plotting something illegal again!]
[Remove the feeling, I think he already has a very well-thought-out criminal plan in his mind!]
[Where did that woman go just now?]
[That woman was taken away by Chen Xixi, haha! Zheng He will have to pay the bill by himself soon!]
[Han Qianyi is finally getting savvy, managing to join forces with Chen Xixi to dupe Zheng He. She has really grown up!]
[She should have been on Chen Xixi’s side all along! If she had sided with Chen Xixi sooner, perhaps by now, her popularity or funds would have at least improved!]
Just as Zheng He put down his chopsticks and stood up, a server came over and politely asked, "Your total bill amounts to 528 yuan, would you like to pay by scanning a QR code with your phone or in cash?"
Zheng He, still in disbelief, said, "The woman who came with me, she will pay."
The server smiled and said, "She left about twenty minutes ago, and before she left, she specifically mentioned that the bill should be covered by you."
"!!!" Zheng He was so furious he almost exploded on the spot!
That woman had really left! And before leaving, she made sure to set him up!
To think that someone actually had thicker skin than him and pulled off a plan before he could!
But what Zheng He couldn’t figure out was, if that woman intended to freeload, why didn’t she fill up before leaving?
Could it be she changed her mind halfway and no longer wanted to go on a blind date with him?
That seemed unlikely, as she had been very willing to chat with him, giving him the feeling that he was the only choice.
Zheng He truly couldn’t understand.
Despite not understanding, he still had to make the purchase.
He reluctantly took out his phone to pay, and with a pang in his heart, he asked the server to pack all the dishes. Spending his own money, he couldn’t afford to waste it.
...
In the pavilion of the park.
Han Qianyi curiously looked at Chen Xixi and asked, "How did you manage to get that woman to leave?"
"That was easy. There’s so much of Zheng He’s dark past all over the internet, I just showed her a few clips, and her interest in Zheng He went right out the window," Chen Xixi said and placed the few bags she was carrying on the stone table, then offered Han Qianyi a pair of disposable chopsticks.
Han Qianyi, smelling the strong scent of meat, suddenly remembered that she hadn’t eaten yet.
She swallowed her saliva and looked at Chen Xixi, "Where’s this food from?"
Everyone knows how stingy Chen Xixi is, so there’s no way it was bought with Chen Xixi’s money.
Chen Xixi smiled mysteriously and said, "It’s the leftovers from Zheng He’s table. The dishes came out quite quickly while I was talking to that woman, so I just packed them up. He couldn’t finish it all anyway, so we might as well help him eat some."
Han Qianyi suddenly burst into laughter. "Typical of you!"
Following Zheng He didn’t get her a meal, but following Chen Xixi did!
And the fact that Chen Xixi brought back food to share with her was also quite unexpected.
Logically, someone as tightfisted as Chen Xixi should only look after themselves. Since the broadcast of the show began, besides the first day when Chen Xixi asked her to go out to eat together, Chen Xixi never shared any money-saving tips with her again.
In the meantime, they had even developed many conflicts and frictions over various things.
She didn’t feel that Chen Xixi should be getting along with her as amicably as they were now.
Han Qianyi tore open the packaging of the disposable chopsticks and suddenly asked, "Why did you bring me a portion?"
Chen Xixi matter-of-factly replied, "We both helped that woman to avoid being conned by Zheng He. Naturally, the food we snagged from Zheng He, we should eat together."
They certainly had their unpleasant moments in the past, but Han Qianyi deserved some credit too; otherwise, it might not have been so easy to pull one over on Zheng He and get these dishes.
Han Qianyi softly "Oh-ed" and felt a little awkward, turning her head to look away.
If they weren’t rivals, she might actually like this way of interacting with Chen Xixi.
And Chen Xixi was pretty decent, at least much better than a scumbag like Zheng He!
[Hahaha, Chen Xixi is awesome! She actually managed to fleece Zheng He!]
[What if Zheng He finds out and asks them for money?]
[Let’s see if Zheng He discovers it first. He ordered so much food that he probably can’t even remember what he didn’t eat!]
[Are Chen Xixi and Han Qianyi becoming good friends? The scene between them right now feels so harmonious and rare!]
[Chen Xixi and Han Qianyi helped another girl out of a bind and then shared the spoils together. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a harmonious scene between girls online. It’s kind of touching.]
While Chen Xixi and Han Qianyi were dining together, Zheng He was not idle either.
Seeing that it was nearly four in the afternoon, Zheng He’s rich sugar mama would soon arrive, and he hadn’t finished signing things. He had signed some things in the morning; now he had to hurry back to sign more.
Even if the payment for signatures was in installments, he couldn’t show up empty-handed. He had to show his sincerity to the sugar mama!
At 7:30 pm, the sugar mama messaged him saying she would arrive in half an hour, and Zheng He set off with the signatures.
Zheng He left under the curious gaze of the other guests.
Han Qianyi watched Zheng He’s departing figure, puzzled, "What’s he doing on a late night, carrying a bunch of papers and such a cheerful grin?"
Chen Xixi pursed her lips, "Who knows, doesn’t seem like anything good."
Just as Chen Xixi had predicted.
One hour later, the police arrested Zheng He on charges of sexual harassment.
