Best friends transmigrate into a book! They marry a high-ranking official! If you run, I run too!

Perhaps Su Xiuxiu's words were too shocking, because Tu Manman's cat urine didn't actually come out.

She stared wide-eyed, just like Zhang Qingqing.

She pointed incredulously, "You're friends with her?"

Do you know who she is?

"She's Battalion Commander Gu's wife. You used to pursue Battalion Commander Gu."

"And then?" Wen Tang asked her.

Su Xiuxiu mimicked her and asked, "Yeah, and then what?"

Tu Manman brought up again that Su Xiuxiu had pursued Gu Yanli, and Su Xiuxiu was still a little uneasy, but when Wen Tang asked, "And then?" Su Xiuxiu became calm.

Yeah, and then what?

She did pursue him, but at that time Gu Yanli was unmarried and single. He was good-looking, and she was single too, so what was wrong with pursuing him?

She didn't interfere in anyone's marriage.

Wen Tang continued, "You said before that at the time, neither of them was married, so under such circumstances, is pursuing someone considered a shameful thing?"

"Don't you have someone you like?"

"Do you deserve to be despised as well?"

Tu Manman immediately straightened her neck and said, "I didn't!"

Wen Tang raised her hand and patted him, "You're really awesome!"

Should I give you a big red flower?

"you……"

"What am I?"

I'm praising you!

"Do you not like it?"

"I……"

"What am I?"

"Are you trying to say that you are pure and innocent, uncontested by the world, and as serene as a chrysanthemum?"

"Okay, okay, everyone knows now."

"If you need, I can go to your workplace and put up a banner with these words on it so that everyone can know about you and pay their respects."

Tu Manman bit her lip, unable to say anything more.

She simply wanted to establish herself as a person of refined taste and noble character; she wasn't truly unable to understand human language.

When Wen Tang said she was going to her workplace to put up a banner, she could tell whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

So she dared not say another word. She was afraid that Wen Tang would really cause trouble at their workplace, and she would be the one who lost face.

She has always been a person of high moral character and unassuming at work, how could such a thing happen to her!

So she had no choice but to shut up.

"Gurgle~" Wen Tang's stomach rumbled again.

Su Xiuxiu quickly said, "Let's go eat first!"

After saying that, Su Xiuxiu, still shy, said to Tu Manman and Zhang Qingqing, "Thank you for coming to the hospital with me today. I'll treat you to something another day."

Then she pulled Wen Tang away.

The two walked a little further away, but their words still reached Tu Manman and Zhang Qingqing's ears through the noisy crowd. "What kind of dishes do you usually like to eat?" Su Xiuxiu asked.

“I can eat a whole bowl of braised pork in one go,” Wen Tang said.

Su Xiuxiu couldn't believe it. "Really? You look so thin!"

"Seriously, I love braised pork."

Whatever was said afterward wouldn't reach Tu Manman and Zhang Qingqing's ears because they were far away.

Su Xiuxiu treated Wen Tang to dinner, and the two ordered braised pork, roast chicken, glutinous rice lotus root with bok choy...

Su Xiuxiu ordered six dishes in one go.

Wen Tang felt it was too much.

Su Xiuxiu shook her head. "Don't be so polite with me. When I had dinner with Tu Manman and Zhang Qingqing before, there were also six dishes."

After Su Xiuxiu finished speaking, she realized that whenever the three of them went out together before, it seemed that she was always the one paying for the meals.

"Then I'll treat you to coffee later." Even in a future first-tier metropolis like Shanghai, there are already coffee shops at this time of year.

"It's alright, no need," Su Xiuxiu quickly declined.

Wen Tang, biting into a piece of braised pork, muttered, "Yes, you treated me to something, so of course I have to treat you too!"

"And don't be afraid, I have money!"

Su Xiuxiu did not refuse again.

This seems to be the way friends should get along!

I'm not struggling financially, and I'll take good care of you, but I'm sure you're thinking of me too, and hoping to repay me in other ways, instead of always having me pay for everything.

It's like... a victim of injustice.

Wen Tang had already finished two pieces of braised pork when she looked up and saw that Su Xiuxiu was only holding chopsticks and hadn't touched them yet, so she urged her, "Eat up, eat quickly."

"The braised pork at this state-run restaurant is delicious; it's tender, soft, and melts in your mouth."

"You should try it."

"it is good!"

The two ate while chatting and laughing.

Halfway through the meal, I ran into an acquaintance.

Tu Manman and Zhang Qingqing also came to this state-run restaurant.

This is the restaurant where Wen Tang and Gu Yanli met a few days ago.

Wen Tang didn't want to argue with such a person anymore, so she simply buried her head in her bowl and continued eating.

Unexpectedly, this time the two were quite self-aware and didn't approach at all.

Wen Tang and her friends ordered six dishes, while Tu Manman and Zhang Qingqing only ordered two.

Since Su Xiuxiu wasn't there, Tu Manman paid for everything. Not wanting to spend more money, she said, "I can't eat much, you order two of your favorite dishes."

But before, when Su Xiuxiu and the others were together, they usually finished all six dishes.

Wen Tang was really hungry, and she ate most of the braised pork and roast chicken.

Su Xiuxiu was indeed afraid of gaining weight, so she barely ate any meat and mostly ate vegetables.

Wen Tang takes care of the meat, while Su Xiuxiu takes care of the vegetables.

After eating, Wen Tang sat in her seat rubbing her stomach to help digestion, and Su Xiuxiu paid the bill.

Zhang Qingqing scoffed, "You've really been sold out and you're still helping the seller count the money."

Looking at the two dishes on the table, Zhang Qingqing was extremely angry.

If it weren't for Wen Tang, those dishes would still be in her stomach today.

Tu Manman stopped her, saying, "Stop talking, if you say too much, it'll still be our fault!"

"You'll know how good a true friend is once you've suffered a loss."

Su Xiuxiu gave the money to the waiter, "What is a true friend?"

"Does treating you to a meal mean we're true friends?"

"Inviting others to dinner is like being sold out and still helping them count the money."

Wen Tang didn't want to argue anymore, but Su Xiuxiu didn't want to listen to their slanderous words.

Tu Manman remained innocent and aggrieved, saying, "We didn't say anything, just some honest words. If you don't like hearing them, fine."

"Exactly, six dishes for two people, even the rich don't eat like that."

Su Xiuxiu said coldly, "You don't need to worry about it. There are six dishes in total. I can give them to whomever I want."

“I gave Wen Tang food, and she knew that when she invited me for coffee, she would treat me to food, and some people would just take it for granted.”

"Coffee?" Zhang Qingqing looked shocked, then chuckled. "Coffee?"

Does she even know what coffee is?

"Why do you start trying to sound sophisticated just because you hear people mention coffee?"

Wen Tang also walked over and looked Zhang Qingqing up and down, who looked like a chicken being choked. "You understand what you're drinking, but I haven't seen you drink it!"

"how?"

"Is it because you don't have money?"

"Oh, I understand!"

"No wonder you were so excited!"

"Is it because Xiuxiu isn't here that no one is treating you to six dishes?"

"Oh dear, what a pitiful fellow, who can't even afford four dishes in his entire life."

Zhang Qingqing didn't understand the meaning behind Wen Tang's words. She only thought that Wen Tang was mocking them for not being willing to order four dishes, so she immediately shouted, "Who's not willing to order?"

"Who's reluctant to order?"

Do you think everyone can eat as much as you?

“We’re from the cultural troupe, unlike you, who just works in the fields for work points and eats whatever you want!” She crossed her arms, looking proud.
