Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 90 Zhang Wei Who Can't Get Along

"Nanfeng, let me introduce you. This is my friend Xiaoli," Zhang Wei said enthusiastically to Nanfeng.

Xiaoli, holding the blue British Shorthair cat in one arm, reached out to Nanfeng: "Hello, I'm Xiaoli. Zhang Wei just introduced you, saying you've been friends for many years."

Nanfeng looked at the tall, beautiful girl. After she put on high heels, she was even a bit taller than Zhang Wei, who was 1.8 meters tall.

If it's just a matter of being smaller, it's not a big deal.

But Zhang Wei was standing there shyly and awkwardly, while Xiao Li was poised and composed, with a calm and collected expression.

In short, it was just indescribably awkward.

"Hello Xiaoli, it's nice to meet you. I've heard Zhang Wei mention you many times."

Nanfeng gently grasped Xiaoli's hand, touching it briefly before letting go.

"Really? What did he say about me?" Xiaoli asked curiously.

Sure enough, regardless of whether the girl cares about the man or not, she definitely cares about his opinion of her.

Before Nanfeng could even react to Xiaoli's words, Zhang Wei had already lost his balance.

He said nervously, "Xiaoli, we only chatted for a little while..."

"Don't speak, let him speak." Xiaoli clearly wasn't giving Zhang Wei a chance to cover up his lie.

"It's nothing much, they just kept saying you're kind-hearted, understanding, gentle and considerate... the best girl in the world."

Praising body shape and appearance is too vulgar, and praising other things might expose the truth, so Nanfeng just made up some unverifiable qualities on the spot.

After all, even someone as hot-tempered as Hu Yifei would accept such praise without any self-awareness when someone said she was gentle and considerate.

Nanfeng added, "Seeing how he praised it as if it were the best thing in the world, I thought this honest man was finally starting to exaggerate, but it turns out he wasn't bragging at all."

Nanfeng has a face that looks sincere and honest, and coupled with the emotion in his words, Xiaoli naturally believed him.

She was initially overjoyed, but this joy was quickly overshadowed by a strange sadness.

Seeing this, Nanfeng sighed, knowing in his heart that there was probably no chance for the two of them.

In a relationship, it's not that the other person doesn't have feelings for you; it's that the person they have feelings for isn't you.

Nanfeng had originally thought that if these two showed any promise, he might as well lend a helping hand and give them a boost, just to do what it's good to do.

Seeing the situation, the south wind stopped wasting its energy.

Otherwise, if these two really get together and then run into problems again, that would be a real tragedy.

While thinking about it, Nanfeng casually asked, "I just heard Zhang Wei say that you guys are planning to go back after taking the photos?"

Xiaoli nodded and said, "It is indeed getting late now."

"My family is quite strict, so it's not good to go home too late."

Nanfeng looked up outside; the sun had just set. It wasn't exactly early, but to say it was too late would be a stretch.

"Alright, drive carefully. Zhang Wei, don't forget what we said."

Nanfeng stared at Zhang Wei, intending to remind him to come back quickly after dropping Xiaoli off at home.

It wasn't just about the 8000 yuan; he also needed Zhang Wei to help him with something that he couldn't easily do himself.

As a result, Nanfeng saw Zhang Wei looking embarrassed.

Xiaoli sighed helplessly, "We came by bus."

Nanfeng: "Public transport?"

Looking at Xiaoli's seven or eight-centimeter high heels, he really wanted to give Zhang Wei a thumbs up in front of everyone.

Brother, you're really something.

Bringing this rich girl here by bus? Aren't you afraid she'll twist her ankle in high heels?

Wait, you didn't actually have that in mind, did you?

Once the girl sprains her ankle, you can apply medicine to her ankle, carry her on your back, and instantly max out her favorability.

Well done, Zhang Wei, you've been keeping a low profile.

Seeing Nanfeng staring at him with a surprised look, Zhang Wei scratched his head sheepishly.

"I was thinking that Xiaoli's house is only a few stops away from here, so there's no need to waste money on a taxi."

"I'm planning to spend the money wisely."

The south wind was speechless.

I thought you were a cunning playboy, but it turns out you're just genuinely stingy.

Are you planning to spend the money wisely?

You're probably planning to spend your money on your coffin.

Seeing Zhang Wei's face practically screaming stinginess, he began to worry about the 8000 yuan he had lent out.

Nanfeng thought for a moment and decided to give them some face: "How about this, my car happens to be nearby, I'll drive you back."

"Wouldn't this be too much trouble for you?" Xiaoli stroked the blue British Shorthair with a joyful expression.

She was clearly tempted, but she was still pretending to decline verbally.

After all, it's rush hour now, and if she were to wear high heels and squeeze onto a crowded bus, Xiaoli would be furious enough to tear Zhang Wei apart.

Not to mention she's holding a cat right now, and it's uncertain whether she'll even be able to get on the bus.

It's such a long way, I can't possibly walk back in high heels.

"It's nothing. Zhang Wei and I have been old friends for many years. It's only right that I give it to you."

Nanfeng was quite immersed in the role of this longtime friend. After briefly explaining things to Curry Sauce, he led Zhang Wei and Xiaoli outside.

"Nanfeng, thank you," Zhang Wei said gratefully.

Nanfeng casually joked, "You're welcome. You'll cover the gas later."

Zhang Wei felt as if his heart was being torn apart upon hearing this, but he shamelessly asked, "Can we split the bill?"

"Okay, you and Xiaoli each pay half, I'll go get the money from Xiaoli later."

"...Then I'll pay for everything."

[In his inner world, Zhang Wei frantically frantically pressed the calculator: Today's expenses, the 8000 yuan at the cat cafe, the gas money later...]

We also need to factor in the interest this money would generate if it were kept in the bank, and that interest would generate even more interest, and so on...

【ah!!!】

Zhang Wei clutched his chest in anguish, then looked up to the sky and roared in grief and indignation.

My money!!!

The three of them walked to the bar and bumped into Yu Mo, who was scanning a QR code to buy dried fish and cat food.

"Where are you going?" Yu Mo, carrying the little girl, naturally walked to Nan Feng's side.

Nanfeng quickly took a few steps back: "I don't like fluffy things getting too close to me."

"Really?" Yu Mo said jealously, "I saw Curry Sauce hugging her cat and practically sticking to you."

"Stop fooling around, I'll drive Zhang Wei and Xiao Li home first, I'll be back in a bit."

Nanfeng was unwilling to offer any further explanation.

Nanfeng, whose cold has almost completely subsided, no longer acts on her whims as she did yesterday, and knows full well that she has no right to be willful.

Yu Mo's soft whisper in his ear made him suddenly realize that no matter what the other person was thinking, he had to slam on the brakes and keep their relationship within the safe distance of friendship.

This is good for both of them.

"Then be careful on the road." Yu Mo was unaware of Nan Feng's change in mindset and only instinctively asked with concern.

Meanwhile, the round-faced girl who had been waiting for a long time had already skillfully paid Zhang Wei's bill.

"Hello sir, your total bill is 7941."

"Just scan this QR code to use WeChat."

Hearing this alarming number, Zhang Wei, in a moment of madness, asked a question clinging to his last shred of hope.

"I have a student ID, can I get a discount?"

The round-faced girl's ever-present professional smile finally distorted.

Nanfeng stumbled and almost collapsed to the ground.

"Sir, this can't be discounted." The round-faced girl gritted her teeth before finally uttering those words.

The round-faced girl was nearly devastated when she learned the truth: "That handsome guy had already transferred money to you via WeChat. You just paid in front of your friends and left. Wouldn't that have saved face?"

So you're trying to get a discount with your student ID here... Putting aside the fact that you're in your thirties and have the nerve to use a student ID for a discount, sir, haven't you embarrassed yourself enough?

You swallowed your pride and borrowed 8,000 yuan from a stranger, just so that when you paid the bill, more people would see you lose face again?

If you think money is more important than face from the start, why bother paying for the girl you like just to save face?

The round-faced girl really couldn't understand what Zhang Wei was thinking.

However, Zhang Wei was used to a hard life. He had lived frugally for the past twenty-odd years, even haggling over the price of a cabbage at the market and asking the vendor to throw in a scallion.

He's willing to spend money on Xiaoli, but asking him to pay eight thousand yuan without even trying to bargain... Zhang Wei simply can't do that.

"Why don't you reconsider? A 25% discount would be fine too," Zhang Wei pleaded.

This 8,000 yuan is all hard-earned money that I've saved up through my own hard work!

"Alright." Xiaoli stood to the side, feeling both embarrassed and angry. She complained, "Zhang Wei, I told you from the beginning that I could pay for this myself. You didn't have to pay for me."

As Xiaoli spoke, she took out her phone from her pocket to prepare to make a payment.

She also felt quite wronged, as it was only eight thousand yuan, and it wasn't like she couldn't afford it.

Zhang Wei patted his chest and said he would pay for everything today, and I reluctantly agreed because I thought buying a cat wasn't a big expense.

Now you're begging the waitress for a discount, making it seem like I'm forcing you to spend eight thousand yuan to buy me something.

If my sisters found out, they'd laugh at me for being a cunning, penniless bastard who only wanted to swindle eight thousand yuan from a man.

Xiaoli was angry and was about to pay when Zhang Wei didn't dare to hesitate and scanned the code to pay first.

"Xiaoli, listen to me, it's not that I can't afford it, I just think the price is unreasonable... This cat isn't even worth this price if it were sold by weight."

The round-faced girl's face darkened. If it weren't for Nanfeng's sake, she would have started arguing with Zhang Wei right now.

Our cat, Xiao Lan, is a purebred British Shorthair. Her family has been in the cat café business for three generations, and the cats that have stayed to continue working at the cat café in each generation have all undergone strict selection.

We continued to select the Blue cat, and it was found that it was not only friendly to humans but also intelligent and clever, making it perfectly suitable for breeding.

Not to mention that Xiao Lan received professional cat cafe training from a young age, making her exceptionally affectionate and charming, unlike ordinary purebred British Shorthairs who can easily be targeted.

This price is really fair.

The round-faced girl looked at Zhang Wei with hostility. She was still somewhat wary before Zhang Wei paid, but now that he had paid, she didn't need to give him any nice looks.

After all, the customer is king, but those who have already paid don't count.

"Zhang Wei, you really don't need to do this."

Xiaoli felt like she had a tightness in her chest, unable to breathe.

Let her be angry with Zhang Wei; after all, Zhang Wei paid for her.

Even if you asked her to thank Zhang Wei, Xiaoli wouldn't agree.

She'd rather pay for it herself and then leave than be left with no one to vent her anger on.

"Alright," Nanfeng said helplessly, "Let's get in the car first, and we can talk about anything else in the car."

He really hadn't expected Zhang Wei's thought process to be so peculiar, but since things had come to this point, there was no need to say anything more.

Xiaoli walked out of the cat cafe with a sullen face. Zhang Wei wanted to chase after her, but was stopped by the round-faced girl.

"Sir, you forgot your cat food and cat toy."

Zhang Wei awkwardly stayed behind with his things, feeling extremely wronged.
