Picked Up Another Gege

Seven years ago, Xiao Hehe’s ie of the future: Marry a man who loved her

Seven years later, Xiao Hehe’s feeling now: Catch a millionaire

“I have to keep my eyes open, and work to catch arohed this way

Her friend, Su Renran, iure,in any of those You already know all about hiate All that’s left is to see how you’ll get him”

“Zheng Xie?” Hehe cries out “We’re only two grasshoppers that were accidentally tied together Even when I’ with him”

“Don’t be so quick to say that I can see that Zheng Xie treats everyone politely, but coldly Yet, to you, he’s especially impolite and pays very much care” Su Renran’s words hit ho Xie

When she was younger, she was always tricked into writing his hos Even when he liked other girls, she had to help hiht presents, she acted as a delivery service When they grew up, she acted as a servant, a teirlfriend

She had to check up on the apartment he didn’t live in, turn in the rent, and find someone to clean it When his secretary was unavailable and he wanted to work, she had to help transcribe, organize data, and even serve tea When he wanted to get rid of a girlfriend, but hadn’t found a new one yet, she had to act go in to act as the elated, infuriating, neo much to say about the rest, but what leaves her distressed is that one day, soressive, too infatuated, and throw sulfuric acid onto her

But she also owes a lot to Zheng Xie too

When she was 5, she caused 10 year old Zheng Xie to fracture his foot At the tiet into the Youth Martial Arts School Then he could only study to enter school

When she was 10, she caused 15 year old Zheng Xie to becoible to participate in the National Junior Chess Co player to win, but when he was about to leave, she came doith pneuive up that opportunity to stay with her

When she was 15, she caused Zheng Xie and his girlfriend to break up Thatat all the girls that have coone since, that was the most serious [relationshi+p]

When she was 20, she caused Zheng Xie to lose out on aXie had started a company, and their future was uncertain That business orth a third of their annual sales Xiao Hehe counted it over, and decided that she owed Zheng Xiebullied a bit by him wasn’t really excessive Moreover, he often helps her out

For other men and women, there exists the “Seven Year Itch,” but for the two of them, ould you say happens every five years? This past New Year’s, Zheng Xie solemnly told her, “Hehe, this year, we should do our best not to ether, or cross paths” Hehe would be 25 in two days

But this ti close to hih… She was the one to send a taunting text first And then she did pretend to be goodwilled and visit him in the hospital…

These thoughts were churning in Xiao Hehe’s ht frooing to eat breakfast anyway, so she ht for aXie’s clothes and washi+ng supplies He really pays attention to brands, and only uses a certain few Yesterday, it was only because he was too tired and uncomfortable to care about those details

There’s this word that the author uses to describe a lot of Hehe’s actions, in particular when she’s doing so it correctly, but the dictionary gives “una” as possible definitions In the previous paragraph, I use the word “hopelessly”, but perhaps a better way to describe it is to do soned manner

Youngclearly didn’t feel at all inconvenienced sleeping in a different place for a night He was as carefree as if he had slept in his own home When he woke up, his eyes were still misty with sleep And just a few minutes later, he sat down at the table, refreshed, and started eating

Thus, it seems that this man is someone who often wakes up in others’ hoh, she asks with concern, “Are you going to the hospital for an IV drip today?”

“I’” He didn’t even lift his head

“Zheng Xie, why do you hide your sickness for fear of treatment?” Secretary Wei see Xie to stay in the hospital for observation for two days

“Xiao Hehe, you’re getting more ithe topic around Wow She’d been calling him that way for several years now Of course, most of the time, she didn’t even use his last na on these kinds of airs now But since she was in the wrong, she chose to keep quiet

Fore” for older, close male acquaintances and friends Or “jiejie” for females, etc

Zheng Xie lowered his head to eat He’s always had a good upbringing, unlike a lot of other people When he ate, he never made a sound Hehe admired that a lot She tried to learn fro any noise But when Zheng Xie suddenly spoke, she was very surprised and almost spit out her milk

“Hehe, you’re off froht? Come to a banquet with me”

“Today is the opening cereo play with you? The nuirlfriends you’ve had this year already hit double digits And you’ve also had several beautiful female secretaries too Why ask me?”

“The banquet will be in the afternoon Everyone will be young Haven’t you alanted to nored her unreasonable provocation, and calmly explained

“The people who hang around with you won’t be any good I’”

“Hehe, your co well this year, isn’t it? I don’t need to put in an order, right?” Zheng Xie took another sip of his soybean ot what she was going to say The underprivileged trying to keep to their principles was indeed a very difficult thing

Hehe put on a s with you I was only worried that I can’t o Should I wear a o prepare right away”

Secretary Wei sent soth dress, and there were sheepskin sandals in the same color There was also a necklace and hair accessories It was a sha

When she arrived at the banquet location, she becaood-luck” dolls) all around the playground There were balloons floating, and confetti, and questions written on papers It was clearly a gaant girls or secretaries, and insisted on dragging her there

After another look around, she grew even happier This party was Oly a countdown There was probably a dress code too Theblack suits, and the women were dressed, head to toe, in either red, yellow, blue, or green The party organizer was just too brilliant Would they be grouped by these colors for the games later?

Zheng Xie left her, so she went to socialize on her own Hehe was enjoying herself, answering the questions here and there, winning tons of prizes Then she decided to find sorouped in twos and threes in the corner, and she accidentally overheard soossip

“There was supposed to be a wedding between the Chengs and Zhongs next month But it was suddenly canceled What happened?”

“The formal stateroom was called to Sichaun because of the earthquake So everything was delayed As for the actual story… Well, only those involved will know”

“That’s not all there was I heard that Cheng Shaochen got back with his ex-wife The old lady was so happy that she brought her daughter-in-law and grandkids back froland”
