Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again-Chapter 360 - 145: Qin Shiqing’s 18th Birthday Wish (Part 2)
"Not just the boys in class, even the girls have a good relationship with him. There definitely won’t be a shortage of votes for him in the class committee election. I suspect there are traitors in the dorm!"
The others were unsure, but Luo Xi felt that Nanaz was quite possibly the fake friend.
"No way, your dorm mates would betray you?"
The girl clicked her tongue.
"That guy used some shady tactics to win over my roommates!"
Luo Xi pouted her petal-like lips.
"However, he’s also quite the orator. Whenever he speaks, he’s always the center of attention. My dad often praises his eloquence and tells me to learn from him more!"
"After becoming the class president, he pushed all the tasks onto me, but with just one look at my drafts, he can point out the problems!"
"He never attends self-study sessions, yet he scored perfect marks on several subjects last semester, topping almost every class!"
"He’s also pretty talented. At our school’s arts evening for the May Fourth event, he was the only first-year from our department to perform. That night, he played and sang a song from ’Meteor Garden’, and the whole audience went wild!"
Luo Xi sighed at this point: "Alright, I’ll admit it, I really can’t compete with this guy, I surrender!"
"Oh wow, even the proud leader admits defeat sometimes?"
The girl teased, extending her fist like a microphone: "Leader, how does it feel being second? Tell us about it!"
Luo Xi thought for a moment: "It’s painful but joyful!"
"How can you be joyful? Leader, it seems you have special tastes!"
"Nonsense, I mean I can learn a lot!"
"..."
Meanwhile, in Jianglan City.
After chatting with the class beauty for a bit, Su Zelin ended the conversation.
"Didi di..."
Another message came in.
Xiaoyanzi: "Hey, Su Zelin, it’s Qin Shiqing’s birthday in a few days. Got any plans?"
As her best friend, Tang Yan naturally knew when her good friend’s birthday was.
Su Zelin thought about it and realized it was true.
Qin Shiqing’s birthday was coming, and his childhood partner was about to turn eighteen.
But what does that have to do with me?
Handsome One Year Old: "What plans could there be? However she’s spent it before, that’s how it’ll be this year too!"
Xiaoyanzi: "No sincerity at all. An eighteenth birthday is such a big deal, we should celebrate for Shiqing with something meaningful, right?"
Handsome One Year Old: "Okay, what ideas do you have in mind?"
Xiaoyanzi: "Aren’t I asking you? How come the ball’s back in my court? You’re the clever one, you should go first."
Handsome One Year Old: "Then let’s just grab a bubble tea and get her a cake."
Xiaoyanzi: "That’s it? So cliché, Su Zelin. You didn’t even think about it at all, did you? Never mind, you’re not reliable. Let me tell you my plan; we can take Shiqing to an amusement park, it’ll be really romantic!"
Su Zelin thought, you must have watched too many idol dramas. Amusement parks in big cities are nothing like what Jianglan has, and there aren’t even many rides here nowadays.
Handsome One Year Old: "Good idea. I heard the other day that someone flew off a roller coaster at a nearby amusement park."
Xiaoyanzi: "What? It can’t be that dangerous, can it?"
Handsome One Year Old: "All you do is chat on QQ, can’t you keep up with the news a little? Jianglan’s amusement park is old and rusty, and there’s no maintenance. You can visit, but count me out for the rides. I don’t want to be an airborne acrobat!"
Xiaoyanzi: "You make it sound terrifying, but you’re right, it does make sense. Let’s scrap that idea and think of something else!"
Handsome One Year Old: "Think of something yourself, ideally something simple and doable with money!"
Xiaoyanzi: "So grand, Su Zelin. Rich, aren’t you? All you care about is money! Remember, not everything can be bought with money!"
Handsome One Year Old: "Like what?"
Xiaoyanzi: "Family! Can you buy family with money?"
Handsome One Year Old: "Yes, for fifty cents I can get someone to call me dad!"
Xiaoyanzi: "..."
Why don’t you just report my ID?
Su Zelin thought to himself, you’re not the only one who’s called me dad, Xiaoyanzi. There’ve been others, but that was in a past life, and they needed more than fifty cents, they wanted several more zeroes on the end.
The two chatted some more, and all of Xiaoyanzi’s suggestions were mercilessly shot down by Su Zelin.
Xiaoyanzi: "Su Zelin, it’s not even your birthday, and you’re so picky. How about this, go home and ask Shiqing what her wishes are. If we can help, then let’s try to make them come true!"
Handsome One Year Old: "Boring, I’m not asking!"
Despite his words, the layabout had plans brewing in his mind.
Maybe I can have some fun for myself under the guise of Qin Shiqing’s birthday, hehe~~~
...
After dinner, Qin Daqing and Liu Sufen were watching TV in the living room.
At this moment, Su Zelin came in: "Uncle, auntie, have you had dinner?"
"We have, and you, Zelin?"
In May, after the Su family’s father and son wrapped things up in the B-share market, Su Jianjun shared their decisions with the Qin family. Qin Daqing promptly sold, and their five thousand yuan almost quadrupled to nearly twenty thousand, a threefold profit which delighted them both. Impressed by Su Zelin’s astuteness, their relationship with the neighbor’s child deepened.
"Haha, I just finished too."
