Chapter 1000: The Big Plan of Filling the Memory Tree

” En , it still the same prescription.” Jing Xiaolu nodded. “I am taking leave today, so I came back earlier after shopping with my friend.”
” Hehe , with your boyfriend, right?” The pharmacy owner saw Yang Ming who came in with Jing Xiaolu and said with a smile, “Why don’t you introduce him to Aunty Zhang?”
“This…” Jing Xiaolu was a bit embarrassed. Yang Ming wasn’t her boyfriend. She could coerce him once, but she couldn’t coerce him again and again. If so, Yang Ming would be disgusted.
Seeing Jing Xiaolu’s look, Yang Ming smiled and took the initiative to go forward. “It is Aunty Zhang, right? My name is Yang Ming, and I am Xiaolu’s classmate.” Yang Ming neither acknowledged nor denied it to save Jing Xiaolu face.
However, Aunty Zhang didn’t think too much of it but thought that Jing Xiaolu was shy, so she smiled and said, ” Hehe , not bad. Xiaolu, you also have a stable job. Aunty Zhang is also happy to see this time you have a boyfriend. Your grandmother must be very happy.”
Aunty Zhang was also very clear on Jing Xiaolu’s previous situation. However, she was helpless because Jing Xiaolu’s environment growing up dictated things. Even if Aunty Zhang wanted to help, she could do nothing.
The people who lived in this community weren’t rich. Aunty Zhang didn’t expect to make much money by opening this pharmacy, as long as it could provide some cheap medicines for her neighbors and as long as it could cover her family’s expenses. Aunty Zhang did not have much money on hand, so she couldn’t help Jing Xiaolu’s family. At most, Aunty Zhang could give Jing Xiaolu a lower price when she bought medicine.
Aunty Zhang knew some of Jing Xiaolu’s actions in the past. She often cheated men of their money and mixed together with some people from the underworld. Although they didn’t take advantage of Jing Xiaolu, Aunty Zhang also didn’t like it.
But since Jing Xiaolu went to work at a big company a while ago, Jing Xiaolu had changed. She washed away the makeup on her face and turned into a pure girl. Now, she found a satisfactory boyfriend. How could Aunty Zhang be unhappy?
The reason why she was sure that Yang Ming was Jing Xiaolu’s boyfriend was that Jing Xiaolu had never brought back any men before. However, this time was an exception.
“Aunty Zhang, he and I are really just ordinary classmates…” Jing Xiaolu said with some shyness that made Yang Ming very surprised. Could this Jing Xiaolu have changed? Yang Ming was somewhat unable to adapt.
” Hehe .” Aunty Zhang smiled. She was apparently not entirely convinced. After Aunty Zhang packed the medicine and gave it to Jing Xiaolu, she asked, “Xiaolu, is this also charged to the account?”
” En , when I get paid at the end of the month, I will pay it together.” Jing Xiaolu nodded. Her usual bonuses were used to buy some household items, and her salary was used to pay the medical expenses for her grandmother. Although there was no surplus, it was well calculated.
“How much is it?” Yang Ming raised his head and asked.
Jing Xiaolu was surprised. She looked at Yang Ming somewhat incredulously. In her opinion, Yang Ming wouldn’t mind much of her businesses. He would make a clear distinction with her, but she didn’t expect Yang Ming to take the initiative to take out money and pay for her.
Aunty Zhang was also surprised, and then smiled and said, “Let me count it…” Aunty Zhang saw Yang Ming’s appearance, and there was no doubt about it in her heart. The two people must be together, or else, is this Yang Ming foolish? He still wants to pay for Jing Xiaolu?
“It is a total of one thousand three hundred and sixty-eight yuan.” Aunty Zhang counted and then said.
Yang Ming nodded and took out two thousand yuan from the wallet and handed it to Aunty Zhang, then he said, “I’ll first pay two thousand yuan; the rest of the money will be saved here. After that, Xiaolu still needs to come and get medicine.”
Seeing that Jing Xiaolu did not object, Aunty Zhang also accepted the money. Her family’s financial situation wasn’t very good as well. The store also needed capital turnover. It was good to be able to withdraw some funds as soon as possible, so she did not deny it.
Outside the pharmacy, Jing Xiaolu asked Yang Ming puzzlingly, “Why did you pay the money for me?”
“I have already said that no matter what you buy today, I will pay the bill.” Yang Ming smiled and said, “Of course, it means whatever is within my ability. If it’s beyond my ability, then I am not able to do it.”
Yang Ming actually sympathized Jing Xiaolu. This girl’s life is not easy. I will help her as long as I can. If she can’t be a lover, even a friend should reach out.
” Ceh , that’s meaningless!” Jing Xiaolu flung her head back and said, “I thought you changed your mind and wanted to take me as your mistress!”
“Don’t simply make a joke!” Yang Ming frowned. “We’re already downstairs of your house. Can you be serious a little? If you don’t want me to pay the bill, then you can pay me back once your salary is received.”
“I don’t want to. Do you think I am a fool?!” scolded Jing Xiaolu. “It’s good that you pay for me every time. It just so happens that I can save money to buy cosmetics.”
“Never mind the cosmetics. Your face looks better when you don’t have makeup on it.” Yang Ming shook his head and smiled.
“What? The cosmetics I used before were low-end and bought on the street for a few yuan. Can I look good when I put those on? When I have money, I will buy those that are worth a few hundred yuan,” said Jing Xiaolu with a little yearning.
Yang Ming couldn’t help but smile at Jing Xiaolu’s words. “You know that those worth a few yuan are not good to put on, and yet you still put it on? Isn’t that a problem?”
“I hate you!” Jing Xiaolu was a little annoyed. She thought, Isn’t it because I am poor? Which girl doesn’t love beauty? With no money, if I don’t buy those that are worth a few yuan, what should I buy?
He took Jing Xiaolu to the front of an old three-story building. Jing Xiaolu said, “It’s here. I am going home…”
” En , goodbye.” Yang Ming stopped the car and said.
Jing Xiaolu got out from the car, held the door, and stood outside the car as she waved her hand at Yang Ming. Yang Ming reluctantly said, “Okay, stop waving goodbye. In a moment, the only warm air in my car will be released by you.”
Jing Xiaolu suddenly leaned over and quickly kissed Yang Ming’s face. Yang Ming was surprised and was about to get angry, but he heard Jing Xiaolu faintly said, “Thank you, Yang Ming. Today is the happiest day of my life. It feels so good to be spoiled by someone.”
When she finished, she closed the door, walked quickly to the corridor, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
When Yang Ming noticed that Jing Xiaolu was serious, he hesitated for a moment and lightly sighed. His heart was a little moved. The contrast between the previous Jing Xiaolu and today’s Jing Xiaolu is too big. However, I did not seem to spoil her, right? I just accompanied her shopping. That I bought things for her was entirely out of gratitude for helping me analyze the relationship problem.
After leaving Jing Xiaolu’s house, Yang Ming looked at the time on his mobile phone. It was already after two o’clock in the afternoon. In a while, Zhao Ying probably was about to finish class. Yang Ming thought that he should give Zhao Ying a call in advance to make an appointment. That way, she would save some time for him.
Thinking of this, Yang Ming called Zhao Ying’s phone. After the phone was connected, it rang a few times but was hung up. Yang Ming was surprised and dialed again. This time, it was even worse. It rang once, then it was hung up.
Yang Ming wondered, Why didn’t Zhao Ying answer the phone? Suddenly, he was shocked. Could Zhao Ying be angry? When he remembered what he chatted with Zhao Ying yesterday, Yang Ming suddenly became nervous!
Is this chick still holding a grudge? En, it is very likely. Because she saw me eating with Wang Xiaoyan yesterday, she was definitely in a bad mood. So, she didn’t answer my call at this moment.
Yang Ming hesitated for a moment, and once again called Zhao Ying’s phone. However, this time was worse than the last time, Zhao Ying actually turned off the phone directly! Yang Ming smiled bitterly and touched his chin. This is really difficult.
However, Zhao Ying’s phone was turned off. What could Yang Ming still do? In desperation, he could only go directly to school. If there was anything, they could talk face to face when he met Zhao Ying.
Yang Ming drove in the direction of the school. On the way, the mobile phone rang. It indicated that he had received a text message. When Yang Ming was waiting for the traffic light, he picked up his mobile phone and glanced at it. He noticed that it was Zhao Ying’s number.
Yang Ming quickly opened the message and read it.
“I am in class! What do you want? You called once, but you did not stop and called a second time. My classmates are all watching me!”
After reading Zhao Ying’s text message, Yang Ming suddenly had a feeling between laughter and tears. It seemed that he had complicated the matter. Now, after he carefully considered it again, although Zhao Ying saw that he was eating noodles with Wang Xiaoyan, she didn’t directly expose them. It meant that Zhao Ying wasn’t willing to talk about the worries in her heart. Then, Zhao Ying wouldn’t be angry with him for this reason.
Yang Ming quickly replied with a text message, “Sister Ying, I brought you some gifts from Macau. Are you free later?”
After the text message was sent out, he didn’t see a reply for a long time. Zhao Ying probably turned off her phone so Yang Ming didn’t think much more. He came to the school and simply found a study room to finish filling the memory tree.
In most universities, there would be a lot of study rooms. If this university was not too small, and the teaching buildings were too little, he could find many unoccupied study rooms. Yang Ming once heard of a song describing a situation where a university didn’t have enough seats in the study room. Actually, it was very rare unless it was before the final exams, then the particular situation would appear.
Now, the study room where Yang Ming was in did not have many people. There were only one man and one woman who were probably lovers. They were kissing in the back of the classroom. Yang Ming didn’t care, so he just found a desk and sat down.
He took out a pen and paper and prepared to fill in the memory tree. As he was getting ready and preparing his train of thought, he heard a woman’s scream behind him. ” Ah ah ,” the sound was especially ecstatic.
Yang Ming turned his head back and saw that the boy was groping the girl, totally ignoring Yang Ming. Yang Ming suddenly had a chill, and there were a few beads of sweat on his head. How are college students now so open?
Yang Ming thought that he was already open enough. When he was in high school, he was already dating. He also asked Chen Mengyan to help him in the cinema with that… But after all, he was still being secretive and was afraid that others would see. However, these two were great. They were already stepping into the realm of forgetting the people around them.
Yang Ming was agitated. How could he still write? The thoughts that were initially pure became full of obscenities, and the thoughts of Zhao Ying became a thought of her chest…
Motherf*cker, this can’t be. Yang Ming coughed twice, only to find that the two people behind did not react. He didn’t know if they were too invested that they couldn’t hear the movements around them or they didn’t feel that anything was wrong at all.
Yang Ming was out of ideas and coughed twice again. This is also a study room, right? Can’t these two pay attention to the implications? At least, you have to act as if it were a pure relationship between a man and a woman, right? Could it be that you want to engage in a viral classroom groping video?
Yang Ming’s two coughing sounds were a bit louder. The man and woman who were groping at the back finally heard them, and they stopped their actions. Yang Ming thought that the two had learned their mistake and was prepared to change. However, he didn’t expect the conversation between them could almost anger Yang Ming until he fainted.
“Dear, you see the person in front is so hard-working. It is the coldest time of the year, yet he still comes to self-study. He is so sick and is always coughing, yet he still insists on studying. He could compete with us!” said the boy.
“Yeah. Dear, I also think that we are diligent enough to come to study every day. There are people more studious than us,” said the girl also.
Yang Ming broke into a sweat. He thought, My face is already thick enough. Someone’s face is thicker than mine? It is really outrageous! Yang Ming really couldn’t stand it. He wanted to get up and leave. Motherf*cker, I will change classrooms, okay?
However, he heard the girl said, “The classmate in front, if you are sick, don’t come to self-study. Stopping your studies for one or two days is fine. Rome wasn’t built in a day!”
Yang Ming saw that the girl’s chest was still in the boy’s hand, but she could even say this. Yang Ming was suddenly speechless. He finally saw what the so-called bad*ss character was today!
Initially, he thought that he was a very lascivious person. It turned out that he was so pure! Thinking of this, Yang Ming could not help but be a little proud.Apparently, I am still a very pure person.
Yang Ming packed up the things on the table and quickly escaped from the classroom. He really couldn’t stand it. Yang Ming looked back at the pair of man and woman in the classroom, and he realized that there were only the two of them in this classroom. Even if the people in other classrooms were few in number, there were at least ten people.
Yang Ming was cautious this time. This was the first time, so he had no experience in coming to the study rooms. With the previous lesson, Yang Ming observed for a long time and found a classroom with a strong studying atmosphere.
Yang Ming found a quieter seat and sat down. He was finally able to study his memory tree with a peace of mind.
Where do I start? Yang Ming closed his eyes and began to think about his own experiences with Zhao Ying… En, in fact, his feelings for Zhao Ying should have developed very early, when Zhao Ying was still his math teacher. At the time, before she tutored Yang Ming, he had a little crush on her.
Compared with Chen Mengyan back then, Zhao Ying was more mature and ample, so Yang Ming had a very special fascination with her.
