Childhood Friends With Benefits
Chapter 32 Table of contents

Before becoming a discarded husband, a phone call instantly pumped Qiao Ning up, making him realise the truth that “only mom is good in the world.”

The reason was that Chi Xiaoman finally gathered some strength and started organising all the inconspicuous bags and packages Qiao Yuezhen gave her.

After organising them, she could no longer sit still.

Only a small portion of the vacuum-sealed specialty products took up space, while the rest were clothes, shoes, even jewelry such as bracelets, necklaces, and earrings, as well as skincare and makeup products, and expensive face masks. The packaging boxes of these items were quite large, taking up a significant volume.

Chi Xiaoman couldn’t understand. It could be understood that Qiao Yuezhen bought skincare and makeup products for herself, and incidentally bought her a set too.

But what about these jewelry, clothes, and shoes?

Auntie, how much money did you earn from the script that you’re so spending so extravagantly?

Even Chi Xiaoman’s roommate was shocked, “Wow, they are branded items. They must have cost a lot. Where did you find such an amazing auntie?”

Liu Shuyu even squeezed over, scanning the images on her phone to check the prices. “Tsk tsk, looks like she’s treating you like her own daughter!”

Chi Xiaoman felt the pressure. This was truly an unbearable love. She expressed in a polite manner through WeChat that these items were too valuable for her to accept. Qiao Yuezhen immediately sent several 60-second voice messages, all insisting that Chi Xiaoman must accept them. She had just bought too much out of happiness, and asked Chi Xiaoman not to mind too much.

How could Chi Xiaoman not mind? Her dormmates nearby were so shocked that they had started calculating with a calculator!

“Do you have time tomorrow? Come over,” Chi Xiaoman called Qiao Ning on her phone, “I can’t bear your mom’s extravagance anymore. Hurry up and come over to return these things!”

Qiao Ning excitedly stood up from her chair and walked back and forth in the hallway, “Alright, alright. I have time tomorrow night. I’ll drive over to pick you up. Let’s have dinner together. How about watching a new movie together?…”

“Got it,” Chi Xiaoman hung up the phone perfunctorily and sat on the chair feeling upset.

Liu Shuyu approached, “Why are you unhappy? Do you hate us being nosy?”

“No,” Chi Xiaoman frowned, holding her fingernails, “I’m a little annoyed with Qiao Ning.”

He was too enthusiastic, too excited, as if it was sinful for her to neglect him!

Liu Shuyu: “…”

She hated these kinds of people. The puppy-like young man gave her a sultry look, but Chi Xiaoman saidshe was annoyed!

“If you don’t like it, give them to me,” Liu Shuyu slapped Chi Xiaoman’s back and said, “I’m hungry! Everyone in the dorm is hungry except for you!”

Qiao Ning resurrected with full strength. Before the appointment, he spent half a day grooming himself and still wasn’t satisfied. Finally, he went to a hair salon and had Tony, the hairstylist, style his hair.

On the other hand, Chi Xiaoman was filled with endless regret. Before going downstairs, she cautiously changed out of her low-cut sweater and put on a turtleneck sweater with a jacket, making sure that no unnecessary skin was exposed.

After going downstairs, Chi Xiaoman couldn’t help but cover her eyes when she saw Qiao Ning. Why did this pretty boy dress so flamboyantly? Was he still not satisfied with attracting the opposite sex?

And downstairs, the roommates who were gathered to admire the handsome guy all had weak legs because of his handsomeness. They felt that Chi Xiaoman was really clueless!

Qiao Ning ran a few steps to Chi Xiaoman’s front without saying a word. He helped her move the organised things into the trunk before grabbing her hand and shaking her arm to vent his grievances. A resentful husband took over him: “Why don’t you reply to my WeChat messages? Have you not seen them?”

Chi Xiaoman didn’t know how to respond. She felt like the passersby were all looking at her. In a hurry, she pulled Qiao Ning into the car and explained, “I’ve been busy catching up on classes, so I haven’t had time to look.”
