The next morning.
In the Leng Family living room.
Leng Ling'er earnestly pleaded to her elder sister, "Sister! Please increase my allowance!"
"No."
Her plea was met with Leng Qingqiu's ruthless refusal.
Seeing this, Leng Ling'er immediately threw herself onto the sofa, crying and throwing a tantrum: "Waaah! Sister!! It's almost the end of the month! I've run out of money!"
"Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me!"
"Besides! Even though I'm a day student, 500 yuan a month is completely insufficient!!"
Upon hearing this, Leng Qingqiu's expression remained unchanged, still stern. She waited for Leng Ling'er to stop causing a fuss before slowly speaking: "You only need to eat lunch at school."
"Breakfast and dinner are at home, and now you don't need to take the bus or taxi to and from school."
"Your expenses should only be for buying water."
"500 yuan is neither too much nor too little; it's just right for you."
Leng Ling'er was stunned. Was her sister really calculating it like this?
Although it was true, what about her manicures, hair treatments, and new clothes?
These all cost money! And look at other kids, who only get 500 yuan a month for school? Sister, you're practically sending me to survive in the wilderness!
No, no... The small savings I had are almost gone!
It's still a while until Sister gives out the allowance. During this time, I can't keep mooching off Qiong Lan's lunches...
But ultimately... it's all because I bought that thing that I spent my last bit of money.
Leng Ling'er had no choice but to leave the living room and dash upstairs.
She prepared to use her ultimate tactic.
Hearing the commotion, Leng Qingqiu slightly narrowed her eyes, watching her sister run upstairs.
She sighed helplessly.
Ah, Ling'er is growing up and becoming more and more disobedient.
However, she hasn't really kept up with the current expenses for school. Although in her understanding, 500 yuan should be enough.
Leng Qingqiu pondered for a moment... Maybe she should discuss with Gu Yan whether to adjust Ling'er's allowance.
Wait, no...
Leng Qingqiu blushed. Why would she even need to seek Gu Yan's approval for her family matters?
Leng Qingqiu, Leng Qingqiu, you've truly fallen.
Just as she thought this, there was another commotion upstairs.
Leng Ling'er ran down, and Leng Qingqiu quickly closed her eyes, pretending not to care.
The next moment,
Leng Ling'er squeezed next to Leng Qingqiu and pleaded again, "Sister! Please give me some allowance! I bought yarn and knitting needles, and I'm out of money."
"No... But why did you buy these things?"
Leng Qingqiu instinctively refused, but upon hearing Leng Ling'er's words, a sense of curiosity arose.
When did her sister start liking these things?
Seeing her sister's interest piqued, Leng Ling'er's eyes flashed with a sly smile. She fiddled with the yarn, casually mentioning, "Well... because winter is coming, many girls in class are knitting scarves to give to the boys they like."
"And since everyone is doing it, I didn't want to be left out."
? Giving to the boy they like?
Leng Qingqiu suddenly became alert. She sternly looked at Leng Ling'er and asked, "Who are you giving it to? Are you dating someone?"
Could it be the heir of the Black Tortoise Gate? Mei Xue mentioned that scoundrel seems to like Ling'er.
Just as Leng Qingqiu was about to unleash the classic parental three-in-one,
Leng Ling'er quickly interrupted, "Hey, no, no! Sister, what are you thinking! I'm not dating anyone!"
"Then who are you knitting the scarf for?"
Leng Qingqiu pressed further.
Seeing this, Leng Ling'er's lips curled into a slight smile. Her voice became somewhat shy, "This... for Brother-in-law, is that okay?"
"Who told Brother-in-law to help us so much, so I thought..."
"No!"
Upon hearing this, Leng Qingqiu immediately rejected on Gu Yan's behalf, "Ling'er, what are you thinking about all day?"
"It's Saturday, and you can't relax."
Saying this, Leng Qingqiu took the yarn and knitting needles from Leng Ling'er's hands, sternly saying, "Go back to your room and study. I'll confiscate these for now."
"Ah... Sister... what about my allowance..."
Leng Ling'er pretended to be heartbroken.
"......"
"I'll give you an extra 500 yuan a month, okay?"
Leng Qingqiu helplessly waved her hand, then, not knowing what she was thinking, hurriedly took the confiscated yarn upstairs.
"Oh! Thank you, Sister!"
Leng Ling'er called out to Leng Qingqiu's back, her face also showing a hint of blush.
Hehe, you better be grateful, Gu Yan. With me as your ultimate wingman, how can you resist my sister?
Although it's not like you could resist anyway.
But... seeing my sister so flustered is quite...
Leng Ling'er's eyes showed a strange feeling. Wow, a new level of wow has appeared.
She took out her phone, where a chat window with Gu Yan was open.
The message had been sent ten minutes ago.
[Gu Yan! Sister and I are hungry. Bring some food over!!]
[Angry.JPG]
Leng Ling'er glanced at it; Gu Yan had replied with a [Smile]
?
Leng Ling'er immediately typed.
[Are you an old man?]
After typing, Leng Ling'er also complained: "Gu Yan is just Gu Yan. Even with the latest phone, he only sends emojis that old men would use."
The message quickly came back.
[Look behind you]
Leng Ling'er was stunned. She turned around and saw Gu Yan standing there with a friendly smile, holding a bag of soup dumplings.
She shivered.
"Good morning, Brother-in-law..."
Leng Ling'er awkwardly smiled, "How come you came in without a sound?"
Gu Yan stepped forward, slap!
He placed his hand on Leng Ling'er's head, smiling kindly, "I was planning to surprise Qingqiu, but I didn't expect to hear you talking bad about me behind my back."
"Hehe, you little rascal, you're quite something."
"Trying to play double-faced turtle with me, huh!"
As he spoke, Gu Yan tightened his grip.
"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts, Brother-in-law, I'm sorry!"
Leng Ling'er screamed loudly.
Seeing this, Gu Yan withdrew his hand, placing Leng Ling'er's dumplings on the coffee table, then asked, "Where's your sister? Why are you alone?"
Even after being scolded by Gu Yan, Leng Ling'er quickly recovered. She grabbed a small steamed bun and stuffed it into her mouth, then pointed upstairs, "Sister went up there."
"Alright, I'll go see your sister."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yan's face immediately showed a smile as he headed upstairs.
Leng Ling'er gave him the middle finger behind his back. Damn you, Gu Yan. Don't expect me to help you with assists anymore!
In the study.
The yarn ball and knitting needles Leng Qingqiu confiscated were quietly lying on the desk.
rustling.
Leng Qingqiu nervously searched through the bookshelf.
"It should be here... it should be around here."
Leng Qingqiu muttered to herself.
She remembered she had collected knitting tutorials before, as she had learned a variety of things.
But as she searched, Leng Qingqiu's mind replayed Leng Ling'er's words...
Winter is coming, so knitting a scarf to give to the boy you like...
The boy would be very touched by it.
However..... that's because Ling'er and her classmates are still in high school.
It's the age of youthful passion, so being touched by such a gesture is normal.
But... she and Gu Yan are practically at the stage of discussing marriage.
Would doing such a thing make Gu Yan think she's immature?
Moreover, using Ling'er's yarn to knit a scarf for Gu Yan felt a bit strange.
Leng Qingqiu sighed, giving up on finding the knitting tutorial.
At her age, how could she be like Ling'er...
At that moment,
Chirp~
The study door was pushed open.
"Qingqiu, I've come to see you. How did you sleep last night?"
"Huh... why do you have yarn on your desk? Are you doing needlework?"
Gu Yan walked in, seeing Leng Qingqiu by the bookshelf and the unusual objects on her desk.
