The time passed quickly and soon, it was already Monday afternoon.
At this very moment, there was only one more class left before the school day ended.
In Class 3 of the nursing department, Chu Tian sat at his seat, busy replying to text messages during a short break between classes. He could not help but let out a sigh.
It was a message from Li Niannian, it seemed like the milk tea powder was going to run out soon.
In the afternoon last Friday, there was still 2000 cups worth of powder left. Chu Tian made another 75000 cups worth of powder afterward, which meant that there was supposedly 77000 cups worth of powder left.
77000 cups, Chu Tian thought that volume would be able to last till Wednesday no matter what. Or, at the very least, until Tuesday.
However, he overlooked Saturday and Sunday. That weekend alone had sold more than 50000 cups, almost 60000 cups.
He did not restock today either, resulting in him receiving a message from Li Sisi before his classes even ended.
There were only about 6000 cups worth left of powder. And it would soon be the milk tea shop's peak business time as the time for classes to end neared.
Given the current situation, the 6000 cups worth of powder would not be enough to last till the shop's closing time at eleven tonight even if there was no peak period.
Li Niannian: You're going to bring your big darling over anyway, why don't you restock in passing? We can then go over to the bar and drink something at night together. Sis said that she has already prepared a few good bottles of wine for us.
Chu Tian could only do that. He had to restock anyway, or the shop wouldn't have anything to sell.
Li Niannian: Oh, right. My sis's earrings are quite pretty, who bought them?
Chu Tian: Hmph, who knows? Why don't you ask Sister Sisi yourself?
Li Niannian: Tsk, she doesn't want to tell me. Did you buy it for her?
Chu Tian: Guess?
Li Niannian hid her smile behind her hand as she replied: I knew it. Anyway, remember to bring your big darling over and restock, don't go anywhere else or we'll run out of stock.
Chu Tian: Got it, love you, muah!
T/N:...... 😑
Li Niannian: I don't want it, I'm returning it to you, muah!
And at the same time!
In Class 6 of the nursing department, Sun Nana was showing off to a few other female classmates.
One of the female classmates said in envy, "Look at how thick this platinum necklace is, it must be at least 10000."
"It's over 20000." Sun Nana smiled as she fiddled with the platinum necklace on her neck, "My boyfriend said that my skin is fair and delicate, so a platinum necklace will look good with my skin. Gold ones are too garish which will only give others an impression of being a parvenu and that's too tacky."
"Your boyfriend sure is nice." Another female classmate was envious too, "Nana, don't be enjoying all these alone! We're good friends after all, why don't you ask your boyfriend to introduce some of his brothers to us? How can you only show off and not help us in some way?"
"I didn't." Sun Nana laughed bitterly, "I have always been asking my boyfriend to look out for guys for y'all, but even though he has a lot of classmates, none of them are as rich as he is. Can't you see I'm trying to look out for people with better conditions? It's easy to introduce guys to y'all, but how can I introduce guys with bad conditions? Why would you need a guy who is unwilling to spend money on you, right?"
"Then you should ask your boyfriend to hurry up." One of the female students said, "Once there are any suitable ones, introduce them to us immediately."
"Don't worry." Sun Nana replied, "I've been urging him. I'll introduce you to you guys once there is anyone suitable, don't be so anxious."
After a while more of idle chatters, as if Sun Nana recalled something, she could not help but look towards Bai Xiaochun who was currently writing in her notebook.
The corner of her lips tilted as Sun Nana walked over in a few steps and covered Bai Xiaochun's eyes from behind with a chuckle, "My dearest Xiao-Chunchun, guess who am I?"
Bai Xiaochun laughed, "Nana, of course. Is there a need to guess? I can tell just from the smell of your perfume."
Sun Nana removed her hand from Bai Xiaochun's eyes with a smile and sat down next to her, "Why are you working so hard? Look at you, making notes even after class."
"This part is important." Bai Xiaochun answered, "Teacher has said that this would be included as one of the key points which will be tested in the exams."
Sun Nana nodded with a smile, "Hey, Xiao-Chun, what do you think of this platinum necklace? Is it pretty?"
Sun Nana pulled at the platinum necklace around her neck once again as she spoke.
"Yeah, it's pretty." Bai Xiaochun nodded and continued, "It looks good with your skin color, it makes you look fairer."
"I think so, too." Sun Nana said happily, "I think it looks pretty too, my boyfriend gave it to me. It cost about 20000, can you believe it?"
"I have one too." Bai Xiaochun smiled, "Although it's not as expensive as yours, it's very pretty too. Chu Tian gave it to me."
"Really?" Sun Nana was curious, "How much is it?"
"1900."
Er...
Sun Nana laughed out loud when she heard Bai Xiaochun's answer.
"Chu Tian does love you quite a lot, doesn't he?" Sun Nana laughed, "Given his situation, 1900 must have been quite a lot to him so don't be too harsh on him. After all, there's less than a handful of people who are as rich as my boyfriend."
"Yeah, I know." Bai Xiaochun nodded, "I'm happy. It doesn't matter if he gives me presents or not, as long as he loves me."
"That's right." Sun Nana said, "The most important thing in a relationship is love itself, there's no point in being too superficial. To be fair, many people think that I'm superficial, but I'm not. Love is the reason why we are together but it can't be helped that he just so happens to have such good conditions and happens to be this rich. What else could I have done, right?"
"You're overthinking." Bai Xiaochun replied with a smile, "No one thinks you're being superficial, all the classmates are envious of you."
Sun Nana let out a chuckle, "Oh, right, let me see the 1900 necklace that your boyfriend gave you."
"Sure, here."
Bai Xiaochun pulled out her Star of Purity from her collar as she spoke.
Just as the Star of Purity came to her sight, Sun Nana felt as if she was struck by lightning. She flinched and her eyes widened, feeling dumbstruck in an instant.
