Hong Kong 1980: Me and the Queen Swapped Clothes
Chapter 58 Narrative of the Milk Tea Shop
Just by looking at Li Mengdie's reaction, you can tell that she was very interested in the gossip that Wang Zuxian was about to tell, and she even played the ball with extra effort.
Wang Zuxian even felt a little regretful, but there was nothing she could do to change it. She could only play the game reluctantly, and the coach even pointed her out a few times, telling her to concentrate and not to focus her attention on things she shouldn't be doing.
Li Mengdie chuckled a few times, which drew a disapproving look from Wang Zuxian. She quickly suppressed her laughter, having finally gotten through this training session.
Wang Zuxian had originally planned to sneak away, but Li Mengdie caught her in the dressing room: "Xiaoxian, you can't run away! You brought it up yourself this time. Usually, you get angry if I ask you about it, so why are you thinking of running away this time?"
"Hey Miss, I didn't run away! What's the rush? Let me go so I can change my clothes." Wang Zuxian rolled her eyes at Li Mengdie, feeling like she'd made a bad friend.
Originally, Joey Wong wouldn't have cared about these things, but who was Li Mengdie? She had known Joey Wong for more than a year or two and knew her personality well; she was the most difficult person to deal with.
When other men pursued Joey Wong, they didn't see her having so many problems, and even sought her out for advice. Now that she thought about it, Li Mengdie found it quite amusing. She simply followed behind Joey Wong, which puzzled Li Mengdie: "What's wrong? Why are you following me like this?"
It was Li Mengdie. If it were anyone else, Wang Zuxian would probably be horrified. Looking at Li Mengdie, she didn't seem to have anything to do; she just followed her around all day with nothing better to do.
"It's nothing, it's nothing. I just feel that you seem a little different from before. It's my fault for being too slow and not paying enough attention to you. I only just realized that you've changed, Xiaoxian. Uh, don't hit me! I'm just saying this, why did you hit me? Why do you get so angry?"
Li Mengdie was speechless. She was about to ask Wang Zuxian what was wrong when she was surprised to see her rushing towards her. She immediately dodged away.
Unexpectedly, Joey Wong glanced at her and said, "Can't you let me change my clothes before saying all this? Otherwise, if we keep standing here, I don't know how to change my clothes."
"Okay, okay, I got it, but I'll be watching you outside the door, so you can't run away." Li Mengdie put her hands on her hips and earnestly instructed her.
Wang Zuxian sighed, resigning herself to her fate. Li Mengdie's vigilant and protective demeanor dispelled her original plan to sneak away.
Given her appearance, it would be impressive if anyone could escape from Li Mengdie's clutches.
"Judging from your expression, you're definitely talking badly about me in your heart. What's wrong?" Li Mengdie looked at Wang Zuxian's appearance and knew what she was thinking, and said with amusement.
Joey Wong shook her head and sighed again. She never expected things to turn out this way. Compared to her previous situation, she found her current state even more ridiculous.
"It's alright, it's alright. I never imagined it would turn out like this." Wang Zuxian looked at Li Mengdie: "How did I end up attracting your attention? You weren't this gossipy before."
Li Mengdie was so angry that she walked straight out, ignoring Wang Zuxian.
"Hey, wait for me, what are you angry about?" Seeing this, Joey Wong quickly changed her clothes and hurried to catch up with her.
Unfortunately, since everyone was on the basketball team, Li Mengdie was about the same height as Wang Zuxian, with the same two long legs. The two of them chased each other and ran to the milk tea shop as if they were taking a stroll.
"Boss, two cups of bubble tea." Li Mengdie turned to Wang Zuxian and urged, "Hurry up and pay."
"I know, I know, just like a robber." Wang Zuxian replied irritably, paid the money, and then followed Li Mengdie into the store and sat down. She still said irritably, "Then tell me quickly, what exactly happened? You were fine just now, why did you suddenly get angry?"
"My dear young lady, don't you know why I'm angry?" Li Mengdie shook her head helplessly.
Looking at her, Joey Wong didn't know what to say. She felt like she had offended her in some way without realizing it, and felt very guilty. She quickly leaned back a little and said, "I really don't know."
"You don't know, never mind, I won't argue with you. Tell me, who exactly made you like this? You've never said you'd be attracted to any boy before," Li Mengdie said seriously.
Seeing her serious expression, Joey Wong was a little embarrassed: "Actually, I'm not at the point of being smitten. Don't talk nonsense, okay?"
Li Mengdie covered her eyes again and shook her head repeatedly. This exaggerated gesture left Wang Zuxian somewhat bewildered: "What's wrong with you? Why are you acting strangely again instead of saying what you were saying?"
"No, I'm just lamenting that you've only been around for a short time, but you're already completely under his control, and even your heart is leaning towards him." Li Mengdie sighed helplessly. She remembered how she talked to Wang Zuxian before, and she never thought that she would become like this.
Joey Wong was bewildered again. She didn't know what she had become, but judging from Li Mengdie's expression, he was clearly feeling some regret about her.
"You've never said before that you care about a boy this much. Now look at you, still denying it, saying you're not attracted to him. Have you ever met anyone who isn't attracted but still keeps him in their heart? When I said these words, there should only be one name in your mind, right?" Li Mengdie stared at Wang Zuxian, taking in her excited denials, which further confirmed that her judgment was correct.
"No, I didn't. Don't talk nonsense. This is really not what you think." Wang Zuxian was also embarrassed. She hadn't expected things to turn out this way, especially what Li Mengdie said, which made some of her previous thoughts awkward.
Originally, Joey Wong wouldn't have thought in this direction, after all, she felt that she still had her bottom line, and puppy love was her bottom line.
However, Li Mengdie's words were like a ripple through a window, forcing Wang Zuxian, who was trying to bury her head in the sand like an ostrich, to face the problem squarely.
"Go ahead and tell me. I'll give you time to explain. You'd better be able to come up with a complete lie to fool me in this short time. Don't forget, to cover up one lie, you have to make up countless lies." Li Mengdie had already crossed her arms and was looking at her with an expectant look that annoyed Wang Zuxian.
"Okay, let me tell you how I met him." Joey Wong had no choice but to surrender. Good friends really understand you, and she trusted them unconditionally.
Li Mengdie remained unchanged. Wang Zuxian took a breath and then began to recount the events from the beginning, when Qin Weiming took the initiative to strike up a conversation with her, using the excuse that he wanted her to teach him how to play basketball.
"What? You actually agreed to such a cliché excuse? Is he really that handsome? A campus heartthrob? No, no, is he actually a hidden basketball pro? He just concealed his skills to get close to you? No, what if he can't play basketball at all and just made up this excuse to get close to you?"
Li Mengdie's excited outburst interrupted Wang Zuxian, who glared at her angrily and said, "Are you even listening to me anymore?"
"Fine, go ahead and say it, I'm listening." Li Mengdie had no choice but to reluctantly shut up.
Wang Zuxian then continued, "I had thought about it before, maybe he just didn't know anything and made up an excuse to get close to me. However, I later found out that he really could only play a little bit of basketball, the kind of level you often see in school. But the only good thing was that he was quite accurate at shooting three-pointers, but he was only at the level of an average person."
"Then why did you teach him? You mean... never mind, you go first." Li Mengdie almost interrupted Wang Zuxian again, but fortunately, she held back her words before Wang Zuxian went berserk.
Wang Zuxian took a breath, telling herself not to argue with Li Mengdie. After all, no matter what, Li Mengdie was the same as she was, and there was no point in arguing with her about this.
"At that time, I only thought that to myself, but since he had already said that, I decided to test his abilities first. I found that he was really at the level he told me. After testing him again, I found that he was really learning to play and improving very quickly. I asked him and he said that he had been secretly practicing on his own after going back, so I decided to teach him for another day."
Wang Zuxian then recounted her previous experiences in detail. After all, no matter what, she felt it was still necessary for her to say these things to Li Mengdie.
Especially when she was talking to Li Mengdie earlier, the other party was obviously more concerned about these experiences and seemed to be gossiping about them.
The two girls had so much to talk about.
"So, so you're willing to keep teaching him because he starts searching for interesting snacks for you every day, and some things are obviously sourced from far away, and you feel he's very sincere? Wow, I didn't expect him to be so romantic. He even knew you were a foodie and specially collected so many delicious things for you. He's really thoughtful." Li Mengdie couldn't help but sigh. She had previously been a little hostile towards this boy who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, feeling that her best friend shouldn't be stuck with such a bad guy.
However, after hearing about Qin Weiming's methodical approach to getting close to Joey Wong, she felt that Qin Weiming was quite romantic, and since he was so dedicated, it was obvious that he had feelings for Joey Wong.
Wang Zuxian was a little confused, but she understood what Li Mengdie meant. She meant that in this kind of thing, it was enough for everyone to know the truth.
"Didn't you say before that if someone keeps trying to find you, they're probably interested in you?" Li Mengdie gave her a disdainful look: "You forgot, since elementary and middle school, you've been constantly receiving love letters, and every morning someone brings you food."
"I know, but apart from bringing me food, he hasn't done anything else, not even a hint or a word," Wang Zuxian said earnestly. "Do you know how different this is?"
Li Mengdie was also confused: "What do you mean? He's not interested in you?"
After hearing so many descriptions, Li Mengdie assumed that Qin Weiming had feelings for Wang Zuxian. However, after spending these days together, he didn't give Wang Zuxian any hints at all, which made her very upset: "He didn't give me any hints, like asking me out to play."
"Does going shopping with him the day before yesterday count?" Joey Wong asked seriously.
Li Mengdie nodded frantically: "Of course it counts! If this doesn't count, then what does?"
"Okay, yes, but when we went shopping that day, he still didn't do anything, and acted like a normal friend. How should I put it, I felt like he was deliberately keeping his distance from me. It's hard to describe this feeling because I've never dated anyone before." Wang Zuxian was quite familiar with Li Mengdie, so she spoke more freely about certain things.
Li Mengdie listened attentively: "What happened after that? Tell me everything."
Wang Zuxian then recounted how she helped Qin Weiming try on clothes, which attracted a swarm of suitors.
Li Mengdie listened with a series of sighs and nods, which made Wang Zuxian a little anxious: "What's wrong? Say something!"
"I just thought, he must be really good-looking, otherwise he wouldn't attract so many girls to come and see him."
"I think it's just average," Wang Zuxian said hesitantly.
When asked to describe Qin Weiming's appearance, she could only say that he was just average, not very handsome, but not very ugly either.
Li Mengdie pursed her lips, not believing Wang Zuxian's words at all, but still didn't say anything, since it wasn't the point anyway: "And then what happened? What else happened? You didn't finish telling the story."
"I ran into Wang Zhen later, and I didn't expect him to keep following me. He even came out to harass me and tried to grab my hand. As a result, A-Ming got angry and knocked him down. He lay on the ground groaning in pain. I thought he was so fake. A-Ming only hit him once, but I went up and kicked him a lot before I felt better and left."
Wang Zuxian recounted what she had done, and at the end, she didn't forget to embellish the story, saying how wicked Wang Zhen was.
"It's Wang Zhen again. That kid is really persistent in pursuing you. You've rejected him so many times before, and you never accept anything he gives you. Sigh, he's like a persistent ghost." Li Mengdie was also surprised that Wang Zhen would appear here again, and immediately said.
Joey Wong said angrily, "That's how it is. I never thought there would be such a person. He actually came here. If I see him again, I will definitely teach him a lesson."
