Just as the twin-tailed net cafe attendant returned to the counter, the young man with red hair appeared.
Upon seeing the young man, a hint of disgust flickered in the attendant's eyes. She had no fondness for these youngsters who skipped their studies to hang around.
However, maintaining her excellent professional demeanor as a service worker, she smiled and asked the youth what he needed.
Hearing her words, the youth didn't speak immediately. Instead, he took out a fifty-yuan bill and placed it in front of her.
"A tip for you, sister!"
"Oh my! Little brother, you are too kind!"
Upon hearing his words, the twin-tailed attendant's eyes sparkled.
There was nothing she loved more than money!
She reached out to take the fifty yuan, considering her monthly salary was only two thousand five hundred, and fifty yuan was quite a sum!
"Hey!"
"Sister, you can't just take this money for free. I have a question for you!"
Just as her fingers touched the bill, the red-haired youth quickly withdrew his hand and said to the attendant.
Seeing the money she was about to receive snatched back, the twin-tailed attendant's mood plummeted like a roller coaster!
She felt an urge to curse!
Looking at the red-haired youth in front of her, she could only silently tell herself: "Hold on, hold on, the money will be mine soon!"
But after hearing the red-haired youth's words, she suddenly understood.
"What question do you have, little brother? Ask away, I'll tell you anything I know!"
Hearing the attendant's words, the red-haired youth smiled excitedly. This was what he had been waiting for.
He quickly asked, "Sister, I want to ask about the beautiful woman who went upstairs just now. Which room was she in? Does she have a boyfriend?"
Upon hearing his question, she immediately thought of Li Qingfeng and Zheng Yingxue.
She replied casually, "Ah! She's in room 101 upstairs. But let me tell you, she seems to be taken, so you don't have a chance!"
"Ah! Is it that bad, sister? Alas, I miscalculated!"
The red-haired youth wore a regretful expression and placed the fifty-yuan bill into the twin-tailed attendant's hand.
"Get me two bottles of water, a pack of cigarettes, and a bag of betel nuts! No need to return the change!"
Hearing his words, the twin-tailed attendant was stunned.
"Didn't you say this was a tip for me?"
She said indignantly to the red-haired youth.
Hearing her words, the red-haired youth retorted with equal logic.
"I say, sister, if you had given me good news, that would be one thing. But you poured cold water on me right away. How could I still give you a tip!"
"This... Alright!"
Hearing his retort, the twin-tailed attendant still wanted to say something, but then she reconsidered. It was true, she hadn't provided any useful information and had even discouraged him.
She could only honestly settle the bill.
"That's forty-four in total, with six left over, no need to return it, right!"
"Yes!"
When the red-haired youth heard her words, he looked at her with shock.
He hadn't expected the attendant to not overcharge him but instead to charge him the highest prices for the items.
After packing the items in a bag, the attendant handed them to him.
"Everything is here, check it?"
"No need, sister. How could I not trust you!"
The red-haired youth said slickly and turned to go upstairs.
Watching him go, the twin-tailed attendant gave him a speechless sideways glance.
Earlier, that kid's eyes had been darting around, fixated on what price range of goods she was taking. His eyes were practically falling out.
Looking at the remaining six yuan in her hand, she directly put it into her pocket.
Shaking her head, she sighed, "These six yuan were truly hard-earned!"
As she was sighing, in room 101 upstairs, Li Qingfeng and Zheng Yingxue were playing a horror game together online.
"Go forward, keep going!"
"Oh, Brother Feng, you're too slow! I died already..."
The two of them were chasing each other, having a blast, and even teasing the game NPCs chasing them relentlessly.
Zheng Yingxue looked at Li Qingfeng, who was intently watching the computer screen beside her, and felt an indescribable sense of ease.
Her family had always instilled in her the importance of studying hard. Now that she was eighteen, she had never played a game before.
Today, following Brother Feng, she finally got to relax.
However, she figured this might be the only time she could play during the holiday, as the college entrance examination was approaching. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Her lifelong dream was to attend Tsinghua University, the same university Li Qingfeng had attended!
"Brother Feng, can you tell me how you got into Tsinghua University?"
As the two of them were caught by the game NPC and the screen turned black again, Zheng Yingxue turned to Li Qingfeng beside her and asked.
Hearing her question, Li Qingfeng was stunned. Looking at the girl beside him, his thoughts drifted back to his arduous third year of high school, where he had studied day and night.
Time flies, years pass!
In the blink of an eye, several years had gone by.
He reached out and gently patted Zheng Yingxue's head, smiling as he asked, "You want to go to Tsinghua University?"
"Yes, Brother Feng. I want to get into Tsinghua University. I've heard it's one of the best universities in the country!"
Zheng Yingxue spoke with utmost sincerity.
Listening to her reply, Li Qingfeng smiled and nodded.
Indeed, in terms of teaching quality and program rankings, it was a top-tier institution.
"Can you tell me what your usual grades are?"
After some thought, Li Qingfeng felt he should inquire about Zheng Yingxue's grades. After all, with a score of just a few hundred, it would be impossible to get into Tsinghua University even with extreme effort.
"Over 670 points. Is that a bit low?"
Zheng Yingxue said sheepishly. Regarding her current grades, she felt her chances were not very high.
"Over 670 points. While it might not be the absolute top score, still..."
"Wait, 670! You said your usual score is 670 points?"
Upon hearing her words, Li Qingfeng looked at Zheng Yingxue beside him in shock. He hadn't expected his neighbor's younger sister to have such high grades.
"Don't worry, don't put too much pressure on yourself. As long as you maintain this score, you can be admitted to Tsinghua University!"
He had been admitted with an exceptionally high score himself, but it wasn't strictly necessary to achieve that exact score. In reality, 670 points was already at the ceiling level.
Any university, upon hearing such a score, would be eager to recruit her.
Looking at Zheng Yingxue beside him, Li Qingfeng said reassuringly and nodded at her.
