Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again
Chapter 487 - 184: Eating Late Night Snacks with Two Girls and Bumping into Zhao Mingxuan and Wei Xian (Part 2)
No wonder she hasn’t left until now tonight.
If there’s nothing special, Qin Shiqing usually goes home before ten.
However, the two elders seemed quite happy.
If Qin Shiqing acted too generously, Zhao Lixia and Su Jianjun would think she wasn’t interested in their son.
Huang Panpan frowned.
She didn’t expect Qin Shiqing to play this trick.
Not only did she defuse the offensive, but she also appeared understanding in front of the two elders.
Shiqing, senior, you truly live up to your reputation!
Looks like I need to continue improving if I want to compete with the big boss!
At this time, Su Zelin spoke leisurely.
"Dad, don’t you like driving? In a few days, I’ll be off to school, and then you won’t have a car to drive. Why don’t you give the junior a ride home?"
"Ah, my stomach hurts a bit, need to go to the restroom."
Old Su naturally didn’t want to take this task; the awkwardness in the car would feel endless, so Su Jianlin slipped away.
Of course, he wasn’t really going to the restroom.
As soon as he went upstairs, Zhao Lixia followed.
Granny Su looked worried. She sighed, "Husband, with Shiqing and Panpan in this situation, what are we going to do if it continues?"
Today we managed to maintain a temporary balance, but what about the future?
You can’t keep balancing it every time; something’s bound to happen eventually!
"What can I do?"
Su Jianjun was also at a loss: "You gave birth to the son, you figure it out!"
"Su Jianjun!"
Zhao Lixia glared at him: "Don’t act like you had no part in it!"
Old Su thought to himself, it’s true I was involved, but at the time I was just enjoying the process; I didn’t expect it to turn out like this!
"Don’t worry, Zelin is only a sophomore, there’s still time!"
"What do you mean there’s still time? Our son is already a manager, driving a car. We must plan his life early, especially regarding relationships. The longer we delay, the more troublesome it gets. I don’t care, just find a solution!"
"Alright, when our son gets home, I’ll make it clear to him that he must marry Shiqing, or else I’ll disown him!"
"No way, that would hurt Panpan’s feelings!"
"Then let’s switch to Panpan. She’s great too, maybe it’ll save us decades of hard work!"
"Are you crazy? I’ve watched Shiqing grow up; I’ve already thought of her as my daughter-in-law!"
Su Jianjun: "..."
It’s not okay to let our son give up Panpan, and it’s not okay to give up Shiqing either. You’ve said it all, what good suggestion can I offer?
"How about we prepare dowries for both?"
"..."
While the two elders of the Su family were talking.
The sound of an engine starting came from downstairs.
Su Zelin and the other two were already in the Santana.
Surprisingly, Huang Panpan didn’t fight for the front seat, as she felt the need to learn from Qin Shiqing; otherwise, she’d appear petty.
So the two girls sat in the backseat.
But Su Zelin wasn’t able to send Huang Panpan home right away.
Because once the junior got in the car, she said to Qin Shiqing, "Senior Shiqing, I’m also hungry. Why don’t we grab a late-night snack together? You don’t need to pack it, it’s better to eat it fresh, packed food never tastes the same. Besides, it’s so cold, if you bring it home, it’ll be frozen. Let me buy you a meal, so I can bond more with my senior."
Huang Panpan suggested this for a reason.
Qin Shiqing said she’d pack, but who knows if after dropping her home, she’d invite the senior to go eat together!
If the senior agreed, then let’s go together; I can’t let her have all the fun!
If the senior didn’t agree, then she’s being stingy, and I can regain an advantage!
After joining the student council, Huang Panpan picked up a bit of shrewdness.
"Sure!"
Qin Shiqing didn’t hesitate much and agreed straight away.
"But I’ll treat this late-night snack, after all, I’m the senior."
"No, no, I should be the one to treat since I suggested it first!"
"How about we do rock-paper-scissors?"
"So, rock-paper-scissors it is, one round or best of three?"
"One round!"
"No problem, let’s settle it in one go!"
"..."
Sitting in the driver’s seat, Su Zelin couldn’t stand it.
It’s just a late-night snack, what’s the difference who pays?
They’re making it seem like a Zorro duel.
If it was just Panpan, I could understand, but Qin Shiqing is acting childish too...
And hey, have you asked for my opinion about the late-night snack? Considered my feelings?
Can’t just leave you two and go home myself, right?
The tension was high in the backseat, the two girls looked serious, raising their hands high.
A bystander might think they were about to slap each other.
"Rock-paper-scissors!"
With a simultaneous shout, they played.
Wait, why are there three hands?
Both Qin Shiqing and Huang Panpan showed fists.
But there was also a bag.
That was the hand from the front, from Su Zelin.
"I win, this meal’s on me!"
With a look of mild annoyance.
You two kept bickering, so I decided to cover all bases!
"Doesn’t count, it was supposed to be just me and senior Shiqing playing, can’t just jump in!"
Huang Panpan protested.
"Right, he’s interfering, doesn’t count, shall we redo?"
Qin Shiqing and the junior agreed.
"We must redo, let’s go again!"
"One, two, three, rock-paper-scissors!"
"Rock-paper-scissors!"
"..."
Su Zelin was speechless.
Truly women and petty people are hard to deal with, the ancients didn’t lie about this.
Buddies are the best, they’ll never trouble you, only be by your side when you’re troubled.
The buddy suddenly thought of Lu Haoran.
Having a sidekick in the front seat would be perfect now.
