"Hello, Uncle and Auntie!" the three of them said obediently as soon as they got out of the car.
"Good, good, good, get in the car quickly. I'll take you all to dinner. Look how thin these young girls have gotten..."
"..."
Dad, your daughter really hasn't lost weight!
Not only Qiu Xi, but even Song Daiyao and the other two couldn't help but want to laugh.
Wanting to laugh but not daring to, the few people in the back seat could only whisper and chat quietly.
...
After they finished eating, Qiu Dad sent the girls back to school, then prepared to take Qiu Xi out for the night.
"Xiao Xi! Your dad and I came here this time to see you, and then to ask you about that money," Qiu Mom was still uneasy. Having finally found some time, she pulled her daughter aside to ask.
"Daughter, it's your mom who insisted on asking," Qiu Dad explained from the side. He harbored no ill intentions whatsoever.
"Mom, I've already told you, why are you still not at ease?" Qiu Xi was truly frustrated. Although she knew her mom worried a lot, she hadn't expected her to worry this much.
"Aren't I just worried! My grown daughter is out on her own, and suddenly a windfall comes her way. How can I not worry!" She wouldn't be at ease unless she saw it with her own eyes.
"Alright, alright, I'll show you." Qiu Xi had no choice but to take out her phone.
Fortunately, she had done it herself after learning. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain now.
Then Qiu Mom took Qiu Dad's arm and they started to study the phone together. Although they didn't quite understand, they still discussed it in whispers for a long time.
"Xiao Xi, why don't you teach your dad and me too?"
This was Qiu Dad after looking at it, as if he had been brainwashed by data.
Qiu Xi's forehead was full of black lines. What else could she say? With her dad like this, he would probably be scammed himself if he tried to scam others.
"You? Forget it! Don't bother your daughter." Qiu Mom also felt relieved after looking, at least the money her daughter had seemed to come from a legitimate source.
"What's wrong with me? No matter how bad I am, this daughter is still mine, right? How can I not be capable?"
"Then I gave birth to her!"
"And that's half of me..."
Unable to win the argument, Qiu Dad retreated in defeat.
...
"Xiao Xi, Mom and Dad are going back. If you need anything at school, call home."
"Okay! Be careful on the road~"
After seeing her parents off, Qiu Xi returned to the dormitory.
"Uncle and Auntie left?"
Seeing her return, her roommates casually asked.
"Yes, they just drove off."
"Uncle and Auntie are really something, traveling so far just to stay one night."
"Xiao Xi, you should spend more time with your parents."
"..."
Qiu Xi felt very wronged by their words. Did she not want to? She did! But her mom just came to see her and left when she saw her, not wanting to stay. Her dad, who had no status, couldn't keep them even if he wanted to.
"Alright, let's not talk about me. Have you been studying properly? The exam time is getting closer."
"...Xiao Xi, I think we can still be good friends if we don't mention this!"
"But you have to study!"
"Fine, study! CET-6 is good, CET-6 is wonderful, I love CET-6 to death!"
"I think you want to skin CET-6 alive!"
"How could I?! She's my first love!"
"..."
This girl has gone mad. She's not even started the exam yet, and she's already driven one person crazy.
"Xiao Xi, your hair seems to have changed a bit?" Song Daiyao, trying to change the subject, looked at Qiu Xi's hair for a long time.
"Hmm?" Qiu Xi hadn't even noticed until Song Daiyao mentioned it. She remembered that it happened in the swimming pool when she completed the swimming task, and then that other thing. She hadn't paid much attention after using it.
Hearing Song Daiyao say this, it seemed to be true.
"Don't change the subject, go look at your problems!"
"I will, Xiao Xi, you don't love me anymore~"
"..."
What a drama queen!
However, hearing Song Daiyao say this, Qiu Xi remembered that she still had a debate competition to participate in.
"Xiao Hua, you actually didn't remind me?"
"The guilty party accuses first. Who can compare to you?"
"..." Is that so?
Never mind, I'll go to the restroom first.
"Xiao Hua, use 'Mei Dai Qing Pin'."
"Okay, reward has been used."
Using the small mirror she carried, Qiu Xi lifted her hair to look. Her eyebrows had already been styled, but after the system's reward modified them, they looked even more exquisite, fitting her perfectly.
As expected, it was a system product!
Qiu Xi looked at her face now, feeling a bit emotional.
"Stop admiring yourself! When your studies reach this level, you'll already be a talented woman and a rich lady." This was the merciless taunt from Xiao Hua.
"..." Can't she admire herself a little?!! As expected, she was the "man-eating flower" herself, always thinking about her plan to increase her salary.
"I'm leaving. We'll talk about this next time."
Xiao Hua: You're the best dog, after all!
Evening, dormitory -
Qiu Xi, who had planned to review her problems for entertainment, saw a message from Nan Hua.
"How is it? Are you free?"
"Even if you're not free on your birthday, you must be free! I'll definitely go then."
"Mhm."
"You don't mind me bringing my roommates, do you?"
"Of course not. Zhao Huasheng will also be invited."
"Okay."
