Sunday night.
Jianglan City, Lijing Community.
Huang Hongbo, who had just returned home from sending his daughter back to school, saw his wife sitting in the living room with a passbook in her hand and a unhappy look on her face.
"Hongbo, I have something to tell you!"
Li Juan was furious.
"What's the matter?" Huang Hongbo was a little surprised.
"Panpan's passbook, take a look at it yourself!"
Li Juan stuffed the passbook into her husband's hands.
In the early 21st century, banks could offer card and discount services at the same time.
As the name suggests, the bank card and passbook of the same account can be interoperable, and you can use either one to deposit or withdraw money.
When Huang Panpan was not old enough to open a bank account, Li Juan opened a passbook for her in her own name, gave the card to her daughter, and kept the passbook for herself.
Huang Hongbo took the passbook and looked at it for a few seconds. He noticed the balance on it and was slightly surprised.
"Why is there only so much left?"
The account balance showed more than 3,300.
If it were a child from an ordinary family, this would be a huge sum of money.
But her daughter is different. She is the daughter of a wealthy family. The New Year's money and pocket money given by the couple are much more than that of children of the same age. Huang Panpan cannot spend so much. After accumulating over the years, the small treasury has more than 20,000 yuan.
Li Juan handed another bank statement to Huang Hongbo.
This is the account statement she printed out from the staff, detailing the inflows and outflows of money.
Huang Hongbo quickly found the abnormality.
There was a large transfer, which took away 20,000 yuan from the passbook.
He was even more surprised when he saw the account opposite.
Suzelin!
"I've told you long ago that the bastard is unreliable, but you still don't believe me! But I didn't expect that he was so bold as to cheat our daughter out of 20,000 yuan. He is so shameless!"
"What on earth is going on?"
Huang Hongbo frowned.
"What else could it be? When Pan Pan came back on Friday, I heard her call Su Ze Lin again, saying that she didn't need to pay back the money and she couldn't use it. I wondered if Su Ze Lin had borrowed money from Pan Pan, thinking that he would borrow at most a few hundred yuan. But when I took the passbook to the bank, I found that there was a shortage of 20,000 yuan!"
Li Juan was furious.
I really didn't expect that bastard had such a big appetite. It's no wonder he could do such a thing!
"No, I have to talk to that bastard's parents about this matter immediately! I am also convinced, what kind of parents can raise such a child!"
Li Juan is a strong woman with a tough personality. She cannot tolerate any sand in her eyes, which is why she and her husband have marital discord. How can she hold back now
"Don't be in a hurry!"
Huang Hongbo took a deep breath.
"There's no rush. My daughter has been cheated out of 20,000 yuan. As a father, don't you want to take care of her and let her be cheated by that bastard?"
Li Juan was very angry and her voice increased by 20 decibels.
"Of course I can't just sit back and watch this happen, but now is not the time!"
Huang Hongbo said in a deep voice.
"Why isn't now the time?"
Li Juan asked.
"Because there are still more than two months before Panpan takes the college entrance examination! Think about it, if you go to Su Zelin's parents to argue, they will definitely go to their son. Then Su Zelin may naturally contact Panpan. Our daughter is willing to lend him money, but she doesn't think she was deceived by Su Zelin. If you make a big deal about it, how will Panpan react?"
Huang Hongbo is not as impulsive as his wife, and his analysis is very calm.
Li Juan was slightly startled.
That's right, I really didn't expect this.
Even if that bastard cheated Panpan, Panpan doesn't think so.
If my daughter knew that I went to argue with Su Zelin’s parents, she would definitely quarrel with me, which might affect her study attitude and performance in the college entrance examination.
"Hongbo, what do you think we should do?"
Li Juan suppressed her anger.
"In my opinion, Panpan is studying so hard now, we can't let anything go wrong. No matter what, we have to wait until our daughter takes the college entrance examination. By then, Su Zelin will be back, and we can find him and ask him everything, and then make plans!"
After all, men are more stable and consider things more carefully.
"What's there to ask? It's obvious that he saw Panpan as innocent and rich, so he wanted to take advantage of her!"
Li Juan snorted coldly, "But he has found the wrong person. I am not that easy to bully. I will find Su Zelin and ask him to spit out the 20,000 yuan and stay away from our daughter. Otherwise, I will call the police! But before that, I will tolerate him for a while!"
"Okay, okay, let's talk about it later and calm down!"
"When faced with such a mess, how can I not be angry?"
"… "
A new week has arrived.
School of Finance campus, East District Boys’ Dormitory.
Su Zelin came to Room 305 and saw Liu Yanbin and Pan Yun as soon as he entered the door.
The two have been boyfriend and girlfriend for a long time.
In this sister-brother relationship, Liu Yanbin played the role of the pampered one. Pan Yun often came to 305 whenever she was free to get him food and water, which made the other roommates extremely envious. Only then did they realize how good the senior sister was and how wonderful it was. It was so comfortable to have a senior sister.
Influenced by Liu Yanbin and Pan Yun, they all wished they could find a senior schoolmate to take good care of them.
The two of them sat at the computer, flirting with each other. Su Zelin was used to it and greeted them as soon as he entered the room: "Hi, Yanbin, Senior Sister Pan!"
"Oh, the monitor is here!"
Pan Yun had a bit of the attitude of "marry a chicken and follow the chicken, marry a dog and follow the dog". When she saw Su Zelin, she also followed Liu Yanbin and called him squad leader. Anyway, they just talked about their own things.
Su Zelin smiled and said, "Haha, it's best if you are all here."
"What's the matter, squad leader, do you need us for something?"
Liu Yanbin asked curiously.
"It's actually nothing serious. Didn't you treat me to a meal last time? I have to reciprocate, right? So I'm going to treat you to a meal as well. I hope you can do me the honor!"
Su Zelin quickly stated his purpose.
"Squad leader, I think you don't have to be polite."
Liu Yanbin scratched his head.
I treated the squad leader to a meal because he had helped me before and I owed him a big favor, so I treated him to a meal to express my gratitude.
But he had never done anything to help the class monitor. At most, he voted for him during the class leader election, and persuaded other roommates in the dormitory, except Pei Wenzhe, to vote for him as well.
But even if there was no wooing, others would most likely vote for Su Zelin with the first choice, after all, he was already very popular at that time.
However, Pan Yun could hear something else behind Su Zelin's words.
Pan Yun has been together with Liu Yanbin for half a year. Because of her boyfriend, she has a lot of contact with Su Zelin, so she knows him a little bit.
If nothing happened, he probably wouldn't have invited himself and Liu Yanbin to dinner.
And she quickly guessed why.
Sure enough, the scoundrel coughed dryly the next moment and said, "However, if it's just me and the virtuous couple, then I will be a hundred watts, so can you call a few people to keep me company so that I won't be alone and shining."
I knew it!
Pan Yun rolled her eyes. When she first met her boyfriend's squad leader, she thought he was a very loyal man and was also very talkative. However, Pan Yun soon realized the dark side of this gangster.
This guy is a bit of a playboy. It is said that he is also the director of the Women's Federation in the class. He treats all the girls equally except those who have boyfriends.
"Class monitor, if you want me to help you make an appointment with Li Yanru and Tao Min, just say it directly, don't beat around the bush!"
Pan Yun complained unhappily.
These two girls are her roommates, and they were brought out when she invited them to dinner last time.
Li Yanru is from Liandu, Zhejiang Province, and is also the moderator of the Finance Institute BBS.
Tao Min is a girl from northern Anhui.
"Okay, then I'll just say it directly. I do mean that. I'll trouble Senior Pan."
Su Zelin chuckled.
Pan Yun was stunned. She realized that she had underestimated how thick-skinned this guy was.
In fact, Su Zelin could also make an appointment with Li Yanru and Tao Min himself. After meeting them through Pan Yun last time, he left the two girls' QQ numbers. They occasionally contacted each other online and interacted a lot on BBS, so they were not unfamiliar with each other. He could completely skip the appointment with Liu Yanbin and Pan Yun, but after thinking about it, he felt it would be better to bring the two of them along.
Anyway, it’s not certain who will be the third wheel.
In fact, the gangsters don’t do this to pick up girls.
He has something serious to do.
As the moderator of the Finance Institute BBS, Li Yanru helped a lot in the promotion before the opening of New Century.
The other party even took the initiative to pin a soft article he wrote to the top of the page for a few days.
Generally speaking, this kind of commercial advertisement is not welcome on the BBS of major universities.
Although those soft articles were very soft and minimized commercial elements, they were still advertisements after all.
Li Yanru has given me a lot of face, so I have to repay this favor.
"Then it's happily decided. Goodbye, Senior Sister Pan!"
The bastard is yo-yoing.
Pan Yun finally reacted: "Hey, I haven't agreed yet..."
…
That night, Su Zelin met Li Yanru and Tao Min.
In fact, it was not difficult for Pan Yun to invite the two roommates, because they were already impressed by Su Zelin after meeting him last time and had a good impression of him. They even talked about topics related to him several times.
As long as they say that Su Zelin is treating them to a meal, they will definitely agree happily.
However, Pan Yun felt that by doing so she seemed to be pushing her roommate into the fire pit, so she was quite conflicted, but she finally convinced herself.
Even if Su Zelin didn't go through me and made the appointment himself, my roommate would still come out. Wouldn't it be more dangerous to let that big bad wolf with the silver tongue be with these two little lambs? At least the gangsters would be more restrained if I were there.
So Pan Yun finally helped to convey the message. Without any surprise, Li Yanru and Tao Min readily agreed. The two sides hit it off and decided to have dinner that night.
The place was still the snack street restaurant where he met the two girls last time. Su Zelin made a reservation early and arrived with Liu Yanbin more than ten minutes early.
After waiting for a while, three sophomore girls showed up.
As soon as Li Yanru and Tao Min appeared, the gangster stood up suddenly.
"After such a long absence, the two seniors are even more radiant and charming. They are simply the Caida version of Qiu Shuzhen and Li Zi!"
Su Zelin's licking was a bit exaggerated.
Li Yanru and Tao Min do look a bit like two female Hong Kong stars, but in fact they are still very different.
It would definitely not work if you lick it like this for the first time.
Others will only feel uncomfortable or even disgusted, thinking that you are frivolous and insincere.
Therefore, when you meet for the first time, you need to gradually build a good impression through other means, such as praising her hometown for its beautiful scenery and rich cultural heritage.
Or maybe the women in their place are gentle, virtuous, etc.
Anyway, don't praise her directly, but insert it from other angles.
This kind of topic will make them happy and interested, but not too much.
Of course, it’s a different matter if you already have a good impression of someone, and there’s no need for so many fancy techniques.
For example, this time the gangster just licked it forcefully, without any reservation, and it was okay even if it was a little exaggerated.
However, Li Yanru and Tao Min were very happy.
The two girls were instantly overjoyed: "Hey, is this little mouth of yours filled with honey? It's getting sweeter and sweeter."
The scoundrel said with a playful smile: "Then do you want to be two hardworking little bees?"
Once you have a good impression of a girl, if you want your relationship to heat up quickly, the best way is to drive.
Proper driving can help to narrow the distance between opposite sexes. For example, the reason why Su Zelin and Ding Lina are so familiar with each other is that they drive on the highway all day long.
If you are always serious, your relationship will certainly get better over time, but it is definitely not as immediate as driving.
Of course, you have to aim at the target clearly, and target those girls who are more cheerful and active. If the girl is too quiet and dull, don't do this, otherwise it will only backfire.
Li Yanru and Tao Min are not boring girls.
However, as it was the first time for Su Zelin to drive with them, he still chose a slow speed.
"Hate it! We don't want to be little bees!"
Li Yanru covered her mouth and giggled.
"Junior, you are so bad, I never thought you are such a person!"
Tao Min seemed to be complaining, but it was obvious that she wasn't angry at all.
When a girl says to you "Hate you!" or "You're so bad!", it means that there is new progress in your relationship.
Pan Yun covered her face.
It's over. I thought this guy would be a little cautious since Liu Yanbin and I were present.
It seems I was overthinking it.
Liu Yanbin was also helpless.
When they first met and Pan Yun brought Li Yanru and Tao Min out, he had a bad feeling that things were going to be bad.
But it was not easy to be a traitor at that time.
Sure enough, the unfortunate premonition became a reality.
As expected, the class monitor extended his evil claws to the two senior students.
I have become a sinner 55555…
…
A few people were chatting and laughing casually, and after a while, the food came up.
The dishes he ordered were ordinary, not because Su Zelin was unwilling to spend money.
I am a big dog owner, but others are not.
The last time Liu Yanbin treated us to a meal, we ordered a few ordinary side dishes. If I were to treat him back, it would be too arrogant and disrespectful to others. I have to consider the feelings of my younger brother and sister-in-law.
During the meal, Li Yanru drank a few more bowls of soup. When she went out to the bathroom, Su Zelin followed her on the pretext of something. When she came out of the bathroom, he handed her an envelope, saying that he hoped to do his best to contribute to the development of the Finance Institute's BBS.
In fact, it was a disguised bribe. If it was given directly to Li Yanru, she might not feel comfortable accepting it. But in the name of helping the development of the Finance Institute BBS, Li Yanru had no power to refuse.
As for what she did with it, Su Zelin had no control over it.
After a few polite remarks, Li Yanru accepted it.
She had no intention of embezzling the money, but with it, she could indeed organize many more meaningful activities.
No matter what, she was still very happy that Su Zelin had this intention, and after returning to the dinner table, her attitude became even more intimate.
Others were very confused as to why the two of them seemed more familiar when they went to the bathroom together.
What happened in that short period of less than five minutes
When the meal was almost over, Tao Min suddenly remembered something and asked, "Junior, our school is planning to hold a large-scale art evening for the May 4th Youth Day. Have you heard about this?"
“I heard about it!”
Su Zelin nodded.
Every year on May 4th, almost every university will have a party, and like the New Year’s Day party, it is taken very seriously and usually held throughout the college. The School of Finance is no exception.
"Haha, the main performers of this evening party are sophomores and freshmen. The freshmen in our department have also been allocated a quota for a performance of musical instruments. I am responsible for selecting the performers, but I don't know many freshmen in our department. You are the monitor of the Finance Management Class 1. Do you have any talented people in your class that you can recommend?"
Tao Min is the deputy director of the Literature and Art Department of the Department Student Union, so she has some power. She has been allocated three places for the May Fourth Youth Day literary and artistic evening party, two for sophomores and one for a freshman.
Before Su Zelin could say anything, Liu Yanbin rushed to say, "Senior Tao, you've found the right person. Our class monitor is really good at playing the guitar. He showed off his skills during our class building last semester and wowed everyone!"
The gangster's eyes also lit up.
Any spots for the whole academy’s cultural evening
This is a good opportunity.
If I become a celebrity in the School of Finance, I will have the celebrity effect, just like Lei Jun, and then it will be much easier to promote the digital store.
In addition, being able to participate in a cultural evening of this level also brings honor to the Finance Management Class.
Ah Xi always complains that I don't care about anything, just let the sheep graze and leave everything to her.
This time, I will let her see that I, Su, have also contributed to the honor of the class!
Thinking of this, he quickly made a decision.
"Really? Junior, did you often attend cultural evenings when you were in high school?"
Tao Min asked quickly.
As the deputy director of the Cultural and Entertainment Department, she naturally would not give the spot to Su Zelin just because of a few words from Liu Yanbin. She had to be responsible for the evening party and the reputation of the department. If his level was not good enough, he would only become a laughing stock, so this person had to be a regular at the high school's cultural evening parties.
"Not often. I did miss a cultural evening in high school."
Hunzi said modestly.
"Wow, so you attended almost every cultural evening in high school? Isn't that amazing!"
Tao Min suddenly became excited.
It is really true that after searching for a long time, I finally found it without any effort.
"Haha, it's okay. I also took some photos as souvenirs. If you are interested, Senior Sister Tao, I can show them to you someday."
The guy actually took quite a few photos.
Every time there was a cultural evening in high school, he would bring the Casio to school and ask Lu Haoran to take pictures for him.
It was not just for souvenir purposes, more importantly, this kind of photo was a great tool for picking up girls and showing off. He even brought a few of them to college, ready to show off at any time.
After he said that, Tao Min had no doubts anymore, after all, there were photos as evidence.
"That's fine. How about tomorrow night? In addition to the photos, why not bring a guitar so that I can also feel the talent of a talented man!"
As the deputy director of the Department of Literature and Art, Tao Min often organizes literary evenings and related literary and artistic activities in the department, so he naturally has a certain appreciation ability.
As long as Su Zelin performs in front of her and feels there is no problem, she can make the decision on the spot.
Just because this junior is so tall and handsome, he will probably immediately draw screams from countless fans when he goes on stage. If he also plays the guitar well, the show will definitely be a blast.
"OK, tomorrow night!"
"Then it's happily settled. See you there!"
"… "
