Chapter 163 Congratulations, host! Points +100000
Wu Chunying spat out the sunflower seed shells in her mouth and looked Zhang Shuhan up and down: "Who are you? What do you want with her?"
"I...I need to see her!"
She's not here!
Where did Comrade Wu go?
"How would I know? Maybe she went on a date with some gay man!"
Seeing Zhang Shuhan's eyes grow increasingly gloomy, Wu Chunying laughed heartily, "Does this comrade have a girlfriend? What do you think of me?"
Zhang Shuhan shook his head and left the supply and marketing cooperative in a daze, just in time to run into Qiao Manman, who had come to return the money.
"Comrade Xiao Qiao, Comrade Wu... she has a boyfriend!"
Qiao Manman frowned: "She said it herself?"
Zhang Shuhan almost cried: "Her colleague said she went on a date with a gay man!"
Qiao Manman rolled her eyes: "Watch the car for me, I'll go in and ask."
He walked into the supply and marketing cooperative and found Liang Simin: "Sister Simin, I've come to pay back the money!"
Liang Simin asked in surprise, "So fast?"
"Yes, I saved some myself and got an advance from my workplace."
Liang Simin took the envelope and, using the counter as a cover, counted the number of large unity bills.
Nodding: "That's right!"
Then, after searching high and low, he finally found the IOU in some hidden corner: "Hey, can you relax now?"
Qiao Manman smiled and nodded: "I still have to thank you, otherwise I would have had to stay in the dormitory."
He glanced around and gestured for Liang Simin to come closer: "Sister Simin, has Wu Caidie from your workplace found a boyfriend?"
"No. What happened? Just now, a man came over and asked about her!"
“That’s my colleague!” Qiao Manman sighed. “At the social gathering a couple of days ago, my colleague was attracted by Comrade Wu’s eloquence, but unfortunately, she didn’t have the courage to confess her feelings.”
I couldn't let it go after thinking about it, so I came over to ask if Comrade Wu is still single, and if so, I'd like to ask a matchmaker to arrange a meeting.
If she's already taken, then forget it.
Qiao Manman's words were much more comforting than Zhang Shuhan's attitude.
At least, it shows their stance while protecting the reputation of lesbians.
Liang Simin lowered her voice and said, "Your eyesight is much better than your colleagues'. Tell me, there are so many people on duty at the supply and marketing cooperative, why did he have to ask Wu Chunying for information?"
Wu Chunying was notoriously at odds with Wu Caidie; what good things could she possibly say? Even if you brought in a matchmaker, she would still spout nonsense and spread rumors.
You see, in less than half an hour, the whole supply and marketing cooperative will know that Wu Caidie has a man seeing her. And it'll be a bit scandalous.
However, Wu Caidie did indeed go on a blind date. I heard it was with a company commander, who came back specifically to meet her.
Your colleague is having a tough time.
Qiao Manman nodded, thanked Liang Simin, and left the supply and marketing cooperative.
He gently shook his head at Zhang Shuhan's expectant eyes.
He walked to the corner and relayed what Liang Simin had said to him.
"You're too late." These days, soldiers are in high demand, and Qiao Manman subconsciously felt that Zhang Shuhan had no chance.
Seeing his red eyes, I couldn't help but suggest, "Why don't you go and try the state-run restaurant?"
If you happen to run into them, find a corner to squat in, and whatever you do, don't disturb them while they're looking for a partner!
Zhang Shuhan grunted in agreement and strode towards the state-run restaurant.
Qiao Manman was curious and followed, but she kept a distance from Zhang Shuhan so that he wouldn't notice her.
She even asked the system to amplify the sound of the state-run restaurant.
"Comrade Wu, my surname is Zhang, my name is Zhang Hai, I am twenty-three years old, and I am a company commander in the XX Military Region..."
Wu Caidie listened absentmindedly, then looked the other person up and down, realizing that they were completely different types from Zhang Shuhan.
The man had dark skin and a strong physique, which made people feel very safe.
Wu Caidie asked a few questions casually, then buried her head in her food.
Hearing someone lift the curtain, he looked up, his heart skipped a beat, but his eyes dimmed instantly.
Zhang Hai keenly noticed her change, glanced at Zhang Shuhan who had just entered, and asked without making a sound, "Is there enough to eat? Would you like to add some braised pork?"
"No need, Company Commander Zhang."
Zhang Hai sighed, stood up, and ordered two braised eggs and a serving of braised pork: "Just treat it as a meal with friends, don't be shy."
Zhang Shuhan sat in the corner, feeling envious, but he was obedient and didn't go up to disturb the two on their blind date.
Wu Caidie felt sad, thinking he had forgotten her. She quickly finished her meal and prepared to go back to work.
Then Zhang Hai asked, "Comrade Wu, what do you think of me?"
"Company Commander Zhang is excellent!"
"So do you think I have a chance?" Zhang Hai chose to ignore Zhang Shuhan.
Everyone goes through a phase like that. As long as he settles down after marriage, he won't mind.
Wu Caidie clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her palms: "Company Commander Zhang, can I think about it?"
I think you're great, but I'm not sure if I can handle the role of a military wife.
"Sure, Comrade Wu, I'll pick you up from get off work this evening!"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Manman thought Zhang Shuhan was finished. Facing such a formidable opponent, he had no chance of winning.
He shook his head, went home, took out sweet and sour pork, water spinach, and mapo tofu from his spatial storage, ate his fill, and then went into his spatial storage to sleep.
It's getting cold, and she needs to heat the kang (a traditional heated bed), but she hasn't prepared any firewood. Qiao Manman decided to buy two cartloads of firewood from someone in a couple of days.
It was already 2 p.m. when Qiao Manman went to work and saw Zhang Shuhan looking dejected and lifeless.
Qiao Manman sighed and handed him a cup of malted milk powder as a gesture of comfort.
Then I focused on writing the report and didn't notice that my colleagues were exchanging knowing glances and looking very gossipy.
As it was nearing the end of the workday, Qiao Manman handed in her report and returned home, only to be dragged to the restroom by the office's senior colleague.
"Xiao Qiao, are you dating Shu Han?"
"No, why do you say that, sis!"
"Ah, I saw you making him malted milk powder and I thought something was going on between you two."
"Ha, no, no, I just noticed Comrade Zhang wasn't feeling well, and I was just showing concern as a colleague. I have a girlfriend."
I believe the first part, but I treat the second part like a fart.
After politely declining the offer to introduce her to someone, Qiao Manman went home with an awkward laugh.
Just as I was about to enter the space, I heard the system announce: "Congratulations, host, points increased!"
Qiao Manman looked shocked: "How much did you say? Did I hear that right?!"
No, no, she had to count how many zeros there were.
Four zeros make ten thousand, five zeros make one hundred thousand. Good heavens, what did she do to earn one hundred thousand points in one go?
"Host, you have thwarted Xiao Rizi's 'extinction plan,' which is a great deed!"
Qiao Manman's eyes lit up: "Everyone sign in!"
"Congratulations, host, you have obtained one cubic meter of supplies, two fertility pills, and ten acres of grassland."
Qiao Manman continued.
"Congratulations, host, you have obtained one cubic meter of supplies, two fertility pills, and ten acres of flower garden."
"Congratulations, host, on obtaining ten acres of medicinal fields."
"Congratulations, host, on acquiring a ten-acre orchard."
"Congratulations, host, you have acquired ten acres..."
Qiao Manman stopped signing for anything special and then slipped into her spatial dimension.
Looking at the upgraded space, which resembles a paradise, I stretched my body in the gentle breeze.
Qiao Manman smiled sweetly, her eyes crinkling into crescents: "Tongtong, thank you!"
"As expected of the host, please continue your efforts!"
