A female supporting character who travels through time and has a spatial ability becomes the darling
Chapter 43 Second Visit to the County Town
She had the money to buy a bicycle, and she also had the bicycle ticket, which was tucked in the letter her grandmother gave her. In addition to the bicycle ticket, there was also a sewing ticket and a radio ticket.
She had been wearing the watch on her wrist for a long time; it was a Shanghai brand. Her grandparents gave it to her as a sixteenth birthday present when she graduated from high school before she went to the countryside.
The "three turns and one sound" (referring to a bicycle, a turntable, a ringer, and a radio) are usually top-of-the-line items for a son's wedding, but she owned them with ease. Now, if she wants to buy a bicycle, Yun Shu can simply pay and give her the ticket.
Yun Shu was also thinking that she would be able to sign in monthly in a week. The daily and weekly sign-in sessions made her eat well and sleep well. She had no shortage of snacks, rice, flour, oil, meat and vegetables. So she wanted to see what she would draw when she signed in monthly, whether it would be a bicycle, a sewing machine or a radio.
She was also afraid that if she bought it now, and then the items turned out to be duplicates, wouldn't she lose both money and the ticket?
Ideally, you should be able to enter the city during the monthly sign-in period and act independently. Whatever you draw will be equivalent to what Yun Shu buys. If you don't draw a bicycle, you can buy it later.
Therefore, after standing in front of the bicycle counter for a while, Yun Shu decided to leave first.
The ticket seller at the counter was used to it and didn't say anything to mock Yun Shu for not buying a bicycle. After all, in this day and age, not being able to afford one was the norm.
Chen Ming, however, took advantage of having both a car and a ticket and bought one without hesitation. He borrowed the ticket from Jiang Xiucheng and even wrote an IOU. He paid 130 yuan of the 185 yuan fare himself, and borrowed the remaining 55 yuan from Pei Wenyuan, also writing an IOU for that.
So the Forever bicycle ended up in Chen Ming's hands.
Jiang Xiucheng did have the money to buy one, and Pei Wenyuan could grit his teeth and do it too. However, these two brilliant minds thought that if each of the three new educated youths sent to the countryside had a bicycle, it would be too conspicuous. Who knows, someone might get jealous and report them to the educated youth office. It would be better to do it this way, where one bicycle 'emptied' the three people's savings.
This fits their image of being moderately wealthy, able to afford single rooms and special meals, without drawing too much envy. One bicycle is also enough for the group of them on a daily basis.
Although Chen Ming wasn't as quick-witted as his childhood friend and "Old Pei," and was a bit simple-minded, he was the most popular among the older educated youth. Few of them had any major conflicts with him, and several members of the Fengsheng Brigade had become his sworn brothers.
Therefore, after some consideration, Chen Ming became the owner of the bicycle.
After paying the money, watching the clip holding the money fly around overhead, Chen Ming couldn't help but fawn over Yun Shu with amusement.
"It's okay, I'll buy this bicycle for Yunshu, so you don't need to buy it. You can save the money and buy something else."
"Just let me know whenever you want to go into town, and I'll give you a ride..."
As he spoke, he became shy. Before Yun Shu could even reply, he scratched his head and looked awkward. Jiang Xiucheng and Pei Wenyuan couldn't bear to watch. Lin Jingshu also turned pale and shielded her best friend behind her, refusing any attempt by the other men to steal her friend's attention.
Even the clueless Yun Shu suddenly realized something was wrong. She may not have eaten pork, but she had seen pigs run before!
Besides, what young girl reading novels doesn't know anything? They're all timid and submissive in real life, but can talk their way out of trouble online.
After carefully observing Chen Ming's expression and recalling how frequently he had appeared in front of her recently, Yun Shu suddenly came to the conclusion that this guy... seemed to have feelings for her.
……
Upon reaching this conclusion, Yun Shu was suddenly startled. The original text did not mention who Chen Ming's official partner was, but wasn't that because the author vaguely intended Chen Ming to be the second male lead?
So shouldn't Chen Ming's interest lie with her best friend?
How did it become her?!
She's still too young! She doesn't want to be in a relationship yet!
Subconsciously avoiding eye contact, Yun Shu, who had been single for two lifetimes and didn't know how to react, hid behind Lin Jing Shu. Chen Ming, who had been carefully watching Yun Shu, felt a sudden tightness in his heart and couldn't help but tremble.
As expected, Yun Shu had no feelings for him. If she knew his thoughts, they probably wouldn't even be able to be friends!
Chen Ming's previously sweet heart suddenly plummeted into bitterness, his eyes reddening with embarrassment. However, he didn't want the situation to escalate beyond repair, so he forced a smile and steered the conversation back to Lin Jingshu.
"Of course, Lin... Jingshu, if you need a bicycle, you can just let me know!"
"We're not related by blood, we're revolutionary comrades who have shared life and death! There's no distinction between you and me!"
Seeing that the tall young man in front of her was about to cry, Lin Jingshu subconsciously exchanged glances with Yun Shu behind her. After seeing the struggle and complicated helplessness in Yun Shu's eyes, she also felt a headache for no reason.
But Chen Ming was right about one thing: they were revolutionary comrades.
With her thoughts racing, Yun Shu took the initiative to step forward and give each other a way out. Chen Ming could tell that she was willing to keep the relationship at the level of friends, and she wasn't the kind of person who was overly sentimental.
We just need to be more careful about how we interact in the future.
……
"Thank you, Chen Ming. I was just thinking about whether to buy a women's bicycle. This bicycle is too big, and Jingjing and I definitely won't be able to ride it well."
Since Yun Shu had given her attitude, Lin Jing Shu quickly responded.
"Yeah, yeah, this Forever brand bicycle is too tall. Next time, let's buy a women's bicycle."
"Comrade, do you have women's bicycles here?"
The saleswoman at the bicycle counter, after watching the young man's story for a while, didn't mince words. When Lin Jingshu asked her a question, she immediately gave her a reply.
"It won't be available until next week, maybe two or three cars. It'll be first come, first served."
"Okay, thanks comrade! We'll go buy some yarn balls now."
The topic was smoothly diverted, with Yun Shu and Chen Ming walking ahead to buy yarn balls, while Chen Ming pushed his bicycle and lagged behind, looking utterly dejected.
Pei Wenyuan and Jiang Xiucheng didn't know how to comfort their friend who was experiencing his first love, falling deeper and deeper into it, but whose love life was full of hardships. They could only pat him on the shoulder to comfort him.
"At least we can still be friends."
"Yes, Xie Zhiqing is still young. Don't be too anxious. Let's get to know each other slowly as friends."
"I know..."
Chen Ming sighed, his heart still heavy, but he had long known how painful it would be if such a relationship wasn't a mutual one.
It would have been fine if he had just kept his crush to himself, but he couldn't hold back and gave himself away.
"I'm afraid she won't want to be friends with me anymore."
