140: A fruitful Singles' Day

On Singles' Day, Shen Qian went to Normal University. First, he went to see Yu Ziwei. The two spent half a day together in the car and at a hotel. The woman gave him an LV belt.

Shen Qian admitted that when he saw the belt, he almost couldn't hold back. Do beautiful women have some kind of group? Even their gift-giving is so consistent.

Later, after thinking about it, he understood. In the eyes of capital, men have always had little value. It's only in recent years that capital has started to cater to men, and the variety of gifts for men has begun to increase.

The image he projects to the outside world is generally more mature. He already has a watch worth a million, so they definitely can't afford to give him a watch. Being able to spend a few thousand on a belt already shows their attitude.

"Didn't you empty your shopping cart on Singles' Day? How do you still have money to buy this for me?"

"Someone helped me empty my shopping cart, so I saved the money to buy you a belt."

"Huh?"

This time, Shen Qian really couldn't hold back.

"There's a junior who's pursuing me. I have to say, their methods are really something. They bribed my roommate, and while I wasn't around, they clicked 'Ask a friend to pay.' He gave the money to my roommate, who paid for me."

Shen Qian felt that he already understood simps quite well, but someone who could go this far was truly terrifying. Wouldn't that move them to tears?

However, if the other party knew that their goddess used the saved money to buy a belt for another man, they'd probably cry even louder.

"It's really scary, right? I have to pay him back next month. It's so disgusting that he went to such lengths."

"It is indeed quite scary. Stay away from people who indulge in self-pity like that. Otherwise, if they ever feel you've let them down, they might even seek revenge."

As he spoke, Shen Qian got up and started getting dressed.

"Going to spend time with Xia Mengling again?"

"I was originally here to spend time with her, but I really missed you. Besides, it's already been two hours. Haven't you had enough?"

"You bad man, always wanting more while you already have plenty."

"You're wrong about that." Shen Qian finished dressing and moved closer to the woman. "I only called your name just now, remember?"

"Whenever I'm with you, my eyes and my mind are only on you."

"You always know just what to say. Give me a kiss, then I'll let you go."

Shen Qian gently tapped her forehead and walked away with a wave.

Entering Normal University, Shen Qian's appearance attracted some attention. After all, there are many girls and few boys at Normal University, and among the boys, few are as handsome as Shen Qian.

"Hello, can I get your contact info?"

"Of course."

"Hi, can I add you?"

"No problem."

"Shen Qian!!!"

He walked along, adding contacts happily. Just as he was about to add another girl, Xia Mengling's unhappy shout rang out.

Immediately after, Shen Qian saw the girl rushing toward him, holding a small box.

"Flirting around again!"

The girl grumbled indignantly, then grabbed Shen Qian's hand. Without another word, she stared intently at the girl whose phone was still hovering in mid-air.

Ding.

The sound of a successful scan echoed. Shen Qian successfully added another contact. The girl blushed slightly and ran off.

"You're flirting around behind my back again!"

"How can you say that? I'm just making friends normally. More friends mean more opportunities. If someone asks to add me, it would be rude to refuse.

I came specifically to see you, and you say that to me? I'm fining you 800 yuan!"

"I don't have 800 yuan, but if you kiss me, there's a reward."

"You don't even have 800 yuan? How can someone so poor be with me? But since you're so pretty, I'll reluctantly give you a kiss."

With that, Shen Qian gently kissed the girl's forehead.

"Here, your reward."

"What is this?"

"A Singles' Day gift."

Shen Qian gave the box a slight shake. It was quite heavy, and the texture felt thick and solid, not like a cardboard box.

"Thank you, I love it. Let's go eat first."

"But you haven't even opened it to see."

"No need. Anything you give me, whether expensive or cheap, I'll love."

"Just take a look. I begged my dad for a long time."

"Begged your dad?"

When Xia Mengling said this, Shen Qian knew the item probably wasn't cheap.

So the two found a bench. When the packaging was opened and he saw the two lines of English and the Calatrava cross emblem on the side, he couldn't help but turn to look at the girl beside him, who was observing his expression.

"Surprised!?"

Seeing Shen Qian's stunned expression, the girl couldn't hold back a laugh. She was already extremely beautiful, and this girlish glee added even more charm.

"Are you crazy? A patek philippe!"

"Don't worry, the money is all my own, not from my parents. But you know, patek philippe isn't something you can just buy with money—you need to reserve it. So I begged my dad to give me one.

Tell me quickly, do you like it!"

"How much is this watch?"

"Not that much, just... over a million. Your rolex is close to a million, so I couldn't possibly give you something cheap."

"Over a million by how much?"

"By... by 500,000."

"A car worth over 500,000, a watch worth 1.5 million. Lingling, if you treat me too well, I'll have to hit you!"

"Oh, it's just a special occasion. I promise I'll try to restrain myself in the future."

Shen Qian's face darkened. What sugar baby? How is this eating soft rice?

Which of the car or the watch did he ask for?

Couldn't he afford them?

"Sigh, I'm actually a bit disappointed. You said before you'd knit me a scarf, and I thought you'd give me a scarf this time. I never expected it to be just a watch worth over a million.

To be honest, I can afford a watch worth over a million, but a scarf from the girl I love is more precious to me than a watch worth over a million."

"My hands are a bit clumsy, and I'm still knitting it. It's not cold yet anyway. When it gets cold, I'll give it to you."

Xia Mengling was overjoyed, snuggling into Shen Qian's arms.

Holding the girl, Shen Qian thought to himself:

"This girl has given me things worth over two million. I should give something back, or else I wouldn't just be a scumbag—I'd be downright stingy."

Who would have thought that on Singles' Day, a day when men are supposed to spend money, Shen Qian earned a gaming console, two high-end luxury belts, a patek philippe, and 50,000 yuan in cash.

To have such a haul on Singles' Day—there's no one else like him."
