Hu Yanghui sighed and said, "Why are we doing this? We've spent all our money just to save face."

Zhao Gang nodded and said, "Yes, but it's too late to regret it now."

By noon, everyone had spent almost all their money.

The originally planned lavish meal turned into a bowl of noodles costing eight cents per person.

Meanwhile, Chen Dong took Chu Mengran, Guo Miao, and Yu Qin directly to a Hunan restaurant to enjoy good meat and drinks, hoping to boost his older sister's sales.

Tao Hao's heart was bleeding; it was all because of his impulsive spending that morning.

He regretted his impulsive decision to buy so many things.

Fortunately, Tao Hao had brought extra money with him, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to afford even noodles.

Seeing Tao Hao like this, Shen Yue felt a little sorry for him, but she didn't know what to say.

In the afternoon, having no money to buy anything, they could only wander around the city aimlessly.

Shen Yue's mood worsened, feeling both annoyed by what happened that morning and jealous of Chen Dong's kindness towards Chu Mengran.

She kept thinking to herself, "How did Chen Dong change? Didn't he love me a lot before?"

Compared to the dry shopping trip in the afternoon, filled with tempting goods, Shen Yue became increasingly angry, and her face turned very ugly.

Finally, they went to the park to rest.

Everyone sat silently on the park benches.

Tao Hao realized his mistake and said to Shen Yue somewhat embarrassedly, "Yueyue, I'm sorry, I was too impulsive this morning."

Shen Yue glanced at him but didn't say anything; she was still angry about the matter.

As it got dark, we had agreed to have dinner together, but because we didn't have any money, we had to call it a night.

Tao Hao felt very embarrassed, feeling that his image in front of Shen Yue had collapsed.

But Tao Hao still shamelessly called out, "Yueyue, can we stroll around a little longer? I want to show you how beautiful Nanjiang County is at night."

Wang Xia, Yu Juan, and even Shen Hualing were all stunned for a moment. Then Wang Xia and Yu Juan exchanged meaningful glances, while Shen Hualing rolled her eyes and sneered inwardly, planning to go back and complain.

Shen Yue stopped in her tracks, her face flushing red. She nodded to Wang Qin and Yu Juan, then turned and walked towards her beloved Tao Hao.

Shen Yue naturally understood what Tao Hao meant by showing her how beautiful the night view of Nanjiang County was.

It's definitely because Hao Hao, her white moonlight, is planning to have something happen between her and her.

As Shen Yue walked beside Tao Hao, her heart began to race.

There was both anticipation for the unknown and a touch of unease.

Her mind was racing with thoughts: "Tonight I can finally take things a step further with Hao Hao and let him taste my body."

"I just hope Hao Hao won't dislike me."

Thinking of this, Shen Yue felt unhappy and uneasy again.

For dinner, Tao Hao took Shen Yue to the Hunan restaurant where Chen Dong's older sister, Chen Xiumei, worked.

But Tao Hao was unaware of this.

Upon entering the Hunan restaurant, Tao Hao looked at the menu, and the prices of the meat dishes made him feel a pang of regret.

He thought to himself, "Why is it so expensive? I should have known better than to make such an impulsive purchase."

In the end, Tao Hao only ordered one meat dish and one vegetable dish.

At that moment, Chen Xiumei, a waitress at the Hunan cuisine restaurant, saw it.

Chen Xiumei was stunned for a moment, guessing that the boy might be Shen Yue's current boyfriend.

Chen Xiumei was a little unhappy to see Tao Hao being so stingy.

Although Shen Yue didn't end up with her younger brother.

But she's the girl my younger brother likes, so it's okay if I didn't see her.

Seeing this, I couldn't let Shen Yue eat so poorly.

So Chen Xiumei went to the kitchen and paid out of her own pocket to add an extra meat dish for Shen Yue.

Then, Chen Xiumei went up to greet Shen Yue and brought the dishes that Tao Hao had ordered and the dishes she had treated to to the meal to the table.

It was only at this moment that Tao Hao was dumbfounded to realize that Chen Xiumei was Chen Dong's older sister.

If Shen Yue hadn't told him, Tao Hao wouldn't have known that he had embarrassed himself in front of Sister Chen Dong.

Shen Yue glanced at the extra meat dish on the table, and was not happy.

Instead, she felt quite embarrassed, thinking, "When Chen Dong tried to please me before, I was so aloof. Chen Xiumei, as Chen Dong's older sister, must know that."

"Now, when I eat with my white moonlight Tao Hao, it's not as plentiful as when I eat with Chen Dong."

After the awkward moment, Shen Yue inwardly resented her past attitude towards Chen Dong and also disliked Tao Hao's current stinginess.

But this was the man she liked and valued, so Shen Yue endured it.

After dinner, Shen Yue and Tao Hao went for a stroll around Nanjiang County.

The lights of Nanjiang County were dazzling at night, but in Shen Yue's eyes, it wasn't so beautiful.

Her mind was now filled with Tao Hao's financial difficulties and the unpleasant experience of the morning.

Shen Yue couldn't help but let her mind wander again, wondering to herself, "Did I choose the wrong person?"

A moment later, Tao Hao, blushing, grasped Shen Yue's hand.

Then he took Shen Yue to a hotel.

Shen Yue glanced at it and immediately blushed.

She knew that her beloved Hao Hao really wanted to take her to a hotel.

Although Shen Yue was a little nervous, she did not object deep down; on the contrary, she was very much looking forward to it.

I felt both happy and excited, yet also a little nervous, thinking, "Finally, I'm going to have a wonderful night with the person I love."

As a result, after Tao Hao led Shen Yue inside, he asked about the price and realized that he didn't have enough money in his pocket.

It's not even enough to rent a room for 2 yuan a hour!

Tao Hao's face turned deathly pale, filled with remorse.

"Damn it, why was I so impulsive this morning, buying so many things for Shen Yue?"

"Leaving a little bit has resulted in us not even having money to book a hotel room with Shen Yue now."

Tao Hao looked at Shen Yue again, his eyes filled with resentment.

Shen Yue's expression was rather unpleasant.

Her hopes of giving herself to her beloved Tao Hao were dashed once again.

Shen Yue felt that Tao Hao was really unreliable; he hadn't even prepared for such an important matter.

She resented Tao Hao in her heart and regretted that she had gone out with him so easily.

Tao Hao awkwardly held Shen Yue's hand, unsure of what to do.

Suddenly, he saw a dark alleyway next to him, and on a whim, he took Shen Yue's hand and headed to the park.

The park was quiet, with only a few dim streetlights.

Tao Hao led Shen Yue to sit on a park bench.

Tao Hao took a deep breath, then grabbed Shen Yue's shoulders and looked at her affectionately.

Shen Yue knew what Tao Hao wanted to do, but looking around, she saw a park and the countryside.

Even if she were to have a relationship with her "white moonlight" in such an environment, Shen Yue would still find it very distasteful.

She felt that the atmosphere was not romantic at all, but rather somewhat terrifying.

Shen Yue thought to herself with great dissatisfaction, "What kind of place is this? How can we do that kind of thing here?"
