Chapter 297: Chapter 297: Quite Distant too

Zhaodi was so lost in her thoughts that she didn’t listen attentively during class.

Even when the teacher tapped the chalk on the blackboard twice to remind her, it was no use, and in the end, she had to call out Zhaodi’s name in front of the whole class.

“Jiang Zhaodi, pay attention in class and don’t drift off.”

When the students heard Zhaodi being called out, they all turned their heads to look at her with curiosity.

Even though the students were just looking at her with curiosity, Zhaodi felt like they were secretly mocking her, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

So, she forcefully suppressed her thoughts about Yu Cheng and listened to the lesson with focus.

After school in the afternoon, it was still Su Wanyu who picked up Jiang Mianmian for dinner at the transport factory,

Jiang Mianmian held her hand and excitedly said, “Mom, Brother Yu visited me at school today, and we had lunch together.”

“Yu Cheng came? Where is he now? He’s been so caring towards our family, we must treat him well,” Su Wanyu said with a hint of surprise.

Jiang Mianmian replied, “After eating, he went to the farm to see his uncle, and then he took a helicopter straight back to the Capital City.”

“Took a helicopter back?”

Su Wanyu was shocked to hear this; such transportation wasn’t something ordinary people could afford.

It seemed Yu Cheng’s family background was even more significant than she imagined, but that didn’t really concern them.

So Su Wanyu just expressed her surprise momentarily: “That’s really a pity.”

Jiang Mianmian also nodded in agreement and then took out the pocket watch hanging around her neck to show her, “Mom, Brother Yu also gave me an early birthday gift; look, it’s a particularly beautiful pocket watch.”

With one glance, Su Wanyu knew the pocket watch was worth at least a few hundred yuan, and it reminded her of the Plum watch Yu Cheng had given her last month.

She didn’t use it much herself and thought of giving it to Changhai for work, but he didn’t like it because it was a woman’s watch, so she had to wear it herself.

She had already felt quite embarrassed to accept the watch for herself, and now, to her surprise, her daughter had received an even more expensive gift!

Ah, Yu Cheng had already extended enough help by giving them money and sending things, and he had even taken care of arranging Changhai’s job; he had reciprocated the life-saving favor enough.

From now on, they would have to return these favors to him!

However, she didn’t scold Mianmian for accepting such an expensive gift without permission, considering her daughter was young and might not know the price of the pocket watch, and she gently educated her, “Mianmian, this pocket watch Brother Yu gave you is very expensive, very valuable. We can’t accept such expensive gifts from others in the future, all right?”

“Yes, Mom, I got it,” Jiang Mianmian obediently nodded without explaining, since it was true that she had accepted the pocket watch.

Moreover, it would have seemed ungracious to flat-out refuse a gift that Yu Cheng had gone to such lengths to send to her.

Next time she talked to him on the phone, she’d ask when his birthday was so she could also prepare a gift in advance.

The mother and daughter held hands and arrived at the transport factory, where Changhai had already finished work and was waiting for them in the guardhouse.

Su Wanyu talked to her husband about it: “Brother Hai, Yu Cheng visited Mianmian at school today and gave her an expensive pocket watch as an early birthday gift.”

Jiang Mianmian helpfully took out the pocket watch from under her clothes again to show her dad, and Changhai chuckled after a glance, “This pocket watch is really good-looking and suits my daughter. Buddy Yu has good taste.”

Seeing that Changhai was still able to laugh, Su Wanyu pinched the soft flesh around his waist in annoyance: “Brother Hai, are you listening to me? Yu Cheng has given our family so much. We have returned all the favors; we can’t keep accepting things from him.”
