Chapter 43 Jealousy Happens: The Little Girl is a Passionate Puppy

While eating, Zhou Lang kept feeling something touching his shoes under the table.

Looking down, he saw that the table was small and the space was cramped. It turned out that Su Ying'er's white sneakers were sticking out between his legs.

The little girl's shoe tips would sometimes brush against his trouser leg, sometimes touch his shoes, and sometimes she would put her foot on the top of his shoe.

Zhou Lang glanced at her again and noticed that Su Ying'er's white shoes had laces that weren't made of the usual polyester or nylon material, but rather pure white, semi-transparent ribbons with lace trim.

It seems to be made of organza, adding a touch of cute and adorable girlish charm to her.

"Why are you stepping on my shoes?" Zhou Lang asked, amused. "To show off your shoelaces. Did you buy them or make them yourself?"

"I made it myself, haha~"

Su Ying'er blinked, then smiled charmingly, "Brother, you're not satisfied with just looking at legs, are you starting to like looking at feet now?"

Zhou Lang thought to himself, "Isn't it because your two feet were restless, rubbing and scratching first?"

But even if he didn't want to be at a disadvantage, would he let a high school girl tease him?

He said with a smile, "Because, at the moment, only these two places are legal."

"Even if we wanted to see other places, it seems a bit presumptuous now, wouldn't it? It's not appropriate, don't you think, Ying'er?"

Su Ying'er could naturally guess what the "illegal" and "inappropriate" parts referred to...

She clutched her chest, defeated, and gave him a slightly speechless glare.

A short while later, halfway through their meal, Zhou Lang received a phone call.

It was Shen Wanrou calling.

"Hey~" Shen Wanrou's voice was still soft and gentle, with the last syllable like a cat's tail wagging.

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

Su Ying'er and Zhou Lang were close enough that they could faintly hear the voice on the other end of the phone.

A big red question mark seemed to appear above the little girl's head. She picked up some food while prickling up her ears to eavesdrop.

"My family brought two baskets of nectarines and a few boxes of watermelons, which were grown by our relatives. I wanted to send them to you."

Zhou Lang glanced at Su Ying'er: "I should have appointments during the day tomorrow and the day after."

"Okay, should I add an extra portion for Michelle? She seems to be going to your shop to get her car washed, could you have her bring it to you?"

The question mark above Su Ying'er's head has turned into an even bigger exclamation mark.

Hearing the soft, tingling voice on the phone, she was certain that the woman on the other end was using her signature gentle tone with Zhou Lang.

People who are not familiar with each other usually don't use such a clip-like sound when talking!

Su Ying'er, her delicate face contorted in distress, unconsciously puffed out her cheeks and began biting her chopsticks.

"Alright, sister-in-law," Zhou Lang replied.

Upon hearing the words "sister-in-law," Su Ying'er's tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, and she smiled again.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Lang took in Su Ying'er's subtle expression: "What's wrong, are you jealous?"

"No!" Su Ying'er turned her head away, feigning denial. "No means no!"

A few seconds later, she turned her head again and carefully asked to confirm, "Is she really your sister-in-law?"

Zhou Lang nodded: "Still saying you're not jealous?"

"Hmph~" Su Ying'er was relieved.

This slight jealousy is a good thing for him, it means the girl cares about him more.

Seeing Su Ying'er's anxiety and eventual relief at having regained what she had lost, Zhou Lang decided to strike while the iron was hot.

He said, "It's about time to start planning your summer vacation trip. Have you decided where to go yet?"

Su Ying'er shoveled a couple of mouthfuls of rice into her mouth, deliberately speaking in a muffled voice: "Hmm~ I haven't decided yet~"

From what he said, it seems like he wants to travel together?

Su Ying'er considered it and realized it wasn't unacceptable.

Since there's mutual attraction, it's always necessary to take the next step and get to know each other better. And traveling can be considered a "cheat code" that can speed things up even more than other methods.

Whether two people's habits are compatible, and whether they have hidden aspects of their personalities, can be more clearly seen during a trip.

"How about going to Yangzhou?"

Zhou Lang suggested: "Let's start with Yangzhou, then explore the whole of Jiangsu province, and if the situation allows, we can also visit Shanghai and Zhejiang. Finally, we can fly back from Hangzhou."

"Yangzhou?"

Su Ying'er remembered that she had mentioned that she had a little regret when she traveled to Yangzhou before.

"Brother, did you do this just to make up for me not getting to eat Yangzhou cuisine last time?"

"Pretty much," Zhou Lang laughed. "This time we'll be rolling in money, riding cranes down to Yangzhou!"

"Hmm! Last time I only visited the Grand Canal Museum, I didn't even visit Slender West Lake."

Su Ying'er joked with a grin, "But if you travel with me, you can forget about the ancient costume ladies dancing on Dongguan Street. I'll definitely stop you from seeing them!"

Zhou Lang chuckled to himself. With Su Ying'er, a pure and innocent high school girl who was a sports student, accompanying him on the trip, how could he possibly have the mind to look at anything else?

……

a few days later.

Shushui Station.

Su Ying'er and Zhou Lang arrived early to wait for the high-speed train.

The waiting hall inside the station was overcrowded, and it was difficult to find a seat. Many people put their backpacks on the seats next to them, occupying two seats each, making the seating situation even more difficult.

However, Su Ying'er was not afraid. She whimpered and pulled Zhou Lang to the VIP lounge of the high-speed rail.

The girl in the flight attendant uniform smiled and said, "Hello."

"Hello, sister!" Su Ying'er said energetically and full of vitality. "We'd like to go inside and rest for a bit!"

She took out her phone and opened the Alipay Wealth Black Card interface: "We have... eh? We don't?"

Zhou Lang swiped the screen for her a couple of times: "The benefits of the Black Card have been cut. Now you can only find it in the Platinum and Diamond membership interface, which gives you one or three times a quarter."

After finding the corresponding barcode, Su Ying'er held up her phone and showed it to the high-speed rail station staff: "Sister, look!"

The girl in uniform smiled. Usually, passengers would greet her with "Hello," but today this little girl greeted her warmly as soon as she came up, calling her "Sister." Even she was touched and felt good.

"Okay, I'll verify it. Please come in, both of you."

Zhou Lang turned around and saw that the two female flight attendants were all smiles after Su Ying'er called them "sister" twice.

He looked at Su Ying'er again and couldn't help but pat her little head: "What an enthusiastic little dog."

"Hmph, brother, I'll take that as a compliment."

"That's a compliment. Who doesn't like an enthusiastic puppy?"

The lounge features more comfortable sofas and chairs, as well as complimentary snacks, drinks, and tea.

"Last year, I deposited 300,000 yuan in my Wealth Black Card, which allowed me to claim three high-speed rail travel benefits every quarter." Now, Su Ying'er only has the Platinum member's benefit of one trip per quarter. She muttered to herself, "Alipay has become so stingy, humph."

"I missed the good times," Zhou Lang laughed. "Alipay's Yu'ebao feature was launched more than ten years ago. At first, the interest rate could reach 4%, and sometimes it could rise to nearly 7% on a single day. Now it's only 1%."

"That's why I started saving money!"

Su Ying'er felt a sense of understanding and said lightly, "A few years ago, my parents deposited their spare 200 million yuan into my older sister's account. They didn't let her spend the principal, but she could spend the daily interest. At that time, the interest rate seemed to be over 3%, and my sister could spend more than 6000 yuan every month."

Zhou Lang nodded. With such a vibrant and lively high school girl accompanying him on the trip, he was full of anticipation for the next few days.
