Chapter 577: 154: To Buy Whitening Moisturizing Cream (3rd Update)_1

Li Ronghua continued, “The whitening moisturizer for this month is sold out. If you want to buy it, you have to wait until the 5th. Wenhua, would you mind if I get it for you on the 5th?”

Zhou Wenhua did not directly answer Li Ronghua’s words but instead asked, “What date is the day after tomorrow?”

“It’s the 3rd.” Li Ronghua replied.

Zhou Wenhua countered, “Then do you think it’s acceptable for you to bring it to me on the 5th? Li Ronghua, do you think I can’t afford it and are purposely trying to embarrass me?!”

“No, I’m not! Wenhua, how could you think that of me?” Li Ronghua hurriedly explained, “The whitening moisturizer is extremely popular. It’s snatched up as soon as it hits the shelves each month! If you give me some time, I’ll see if I can find a workaround.”

“Really?” Zhou Wenhua’s expression slightly softened.

Li Ronghua continued, “Wait for me here.”

“Then hurry up!” Zhou Wenhua appeared impatient.

Li Ronghua turned around and went inside the store.

“Xiaohe!”

“What’s wrong Sister Ronghua?” Xiaohe put down the aloe gel in her hand and walked over to Li Ronghua.

Li Ronghua continued, “Xiaohe, did you buy a bottle of whitening moisturizer last month?”

“Yes,” Xiaohe nodded, “Why?”

Li Ronghua grabbed Xiaohe’s hand, “Xiaohe, dear sister, can you do me a favor?”

Xiaohe was taken aback, then said, “What favor? Sister Ronghua, just tell me directly.”

Li Ronghua continued, “Dear, could you let your sister have that bottle of whitening moisturizer? I really need it.”

“Well…” Xiaohe hesitated.

Although they are in-house employees, getting the whitening moisturizer is also quite difficult, requiring them to queue and reserve like regular customers.

If every employee took advantage of their internal resources to stockpile goods and sell them at high prices, wouldn’t that create chaos?

“Xiaohe, my dear sister, please help me?” Li Ronghua pleaded, “I’m willing to give you my entire month’s commission!” What was a mere month’s commission to her when she was willing to give up everything for Zhou Wenhua?

This proposal tempted Xiaohe.

After all, Li Ronghua’s monthly commission was quite considerable.

And Li Ronghua was the store manager, essentially a leader. She didn’t want to offend Li Ronghua.

Xiaohe continued, “Sister Ronghua, we’re colleagues. If you really want it, just give me half a month’s commission.”

“Really?” Li Ronghua asked, surprised.

“Yes.” Xiaohe continued, “I’ll go get you the whitening moisturizer.”

“Thank you, Xiaohe! You’re really like my own sister!” Li Ronghua was extremely excited.

She was also overjoyed that she could help Zhou Wenhua.

Shortly after, Xiaohe came out with the whitening moisturizer.

Li Ronghua took the whitening moisturizer, “Xiaohe, things are a bit tight for me this month, can I pay you when I get my salary in the middle of the month?”

The whitening moisturizer costs 125 yuan a bottle.

Li Ronghua had used all this month’s salary to help Zhou Wenhua, she had just spent 200 yuan on a single fountain pen, where would she get the money to pay Xiaohe?

Xiaohe laughed, “It’s alright, wait till the middle of the month. I’m not dependant on this money.” Li Ronghua was the store manager here, so she wasn’t worried about her running away.

Li Ronghua came back outside with the whitening moisturizer in hand.

Zhou Wenhua impatiently said, “Why did it take so long to come out? If you didn’t want to do it, you should have just said so! There’s no need to jerk me around like this!”

Li Ronghua immediately apologized, “I’m sorry, Wenhua, it wasn’t intentional. Here’s your whitening moisturizer.”

Despite the grovelling in front of Zhou Wenhua that felt deep to her bones, she didn’t understand that a flower can never bloom out of dust.

Zhou Wenhua took the moisturizer and asked, “Do you have money on you right now?”

This was the first time Zhou Wenhua had asked Li Ronghua for money upfront. In the past, it had always been Li Ronghua voluntarily offering money to Zhou Wenhua.

Hearing this, Li Ronghua quickly checked her pockets. Pulling out the only bill she had, she handed it to Zhou Wenhua, “Here, this is for you.”

“That’s it?” Zhou Wenhua slightly frowned, “Li Ronghua, are you worried I won’t pay you back later? Relax, once I graduate and start working, I’ll repay you every cent!”

He was just temporarily broke.

How petty of Li Ronghua!

What can you do with ten yuan?

Li Ronghua replied, “I only have this much on me now, how much do you need, Wenhua?”

Thinking of his mother’s words, Zhou Wenhua said, “I need a thousand.”

A thousand?

Li Ronghua was taken aback.

“Wenhua, why do you need so much money?” This is her salary for four months! She doesn’t have that much money right now.

Zhou Wenhua impatiently said, “This is between us university students, you wouldn’t understand even if I explained.”

Li Ronghua bit her lip, “Can your uncle and aunt help?”

“My parents are getting on in years, and my younger siblings need to go to school. How could you expect me to ask them for money? Li Ronghua, if you don’t want to give me money, just say it outright! Why beat around the bush and insult people?”

“Wenhua, don’t be angry. I didn’t mean that,” Li Ronghua said, “I will go back and figure something out. When do you need it by?”

Li Ronghua’s father is currently renovating a restaurant for Ni Yang. Han Xiaoqin works in Ni Yang’s noodle restaurant, and there are many aloe vera roses growing at home. Their income is quite optimistic, so it shouldn’t be difficult to put together a thousand yuan.

“Tomorrow,” Zhou Wenhua replied.

Wang Meiying has planned for him. As soon as he gets this thousand yuan, he will find an appropriate opportunity to break up with Li Ronghua.

He’s had enough of this life.

Li Ronghua, an illiterate, is entirely unsuitable for him!

As for the money, Li Ronghua gave it to him willingly. He never forced her!

Li Ronghua nodded, “I’ll deliver it to your school tomorrow after work.”

Although Zhou Wenhua is on summer vacation, he’s staying at the university due to their lack of space at home.

“I’ll come and get it.” Zhou Wenhua wouldn’t let Li Ronghua come to his school.

If his classmates found out he had such a girlfriend, how embarrassing would it be?

“You’re so tired from studying every day, let me deliver it to you.”

Zhou Wenhua frowned and said, “If I say it’s not necessary, it’s not necessary! Why are you so annoying?!”

Fearing that she would upset Zhou Wanhua further, Li Ronghua immediately said, “Okay, okay, I won’t go.”

When a woman is in love, she won’t think that Zhou Wenhua was afraid of being embarrassed by her. Instead, she felt that Zhou Wenhua was being considerate, not wanting her to make the trip.

Thinking this, Li Ronghua’s heart filled with sweetness, as if she had eaten honey.

“I’m going now,” Zhou Wenhua said next.

“Let me see you out,” Li Ronghua followed Zhou Wenhua’s footsteps.

“No need, go back,” Zhou Wenhua said, his eyes filled with disdain.

“Wenhua, don’t worry. I’ll only walk a little bit, everything’s fine at the store.”

Communicating with an illiterate person is exhausting.

Zhou Wenhua took a deep breath, his eyes filled with impatience.

After seeing Zhou Wenhua off to the mall, Li Ronghua returned to the store.

After getting the brightening moisturizer, Zhou Wenhua immediately rushed to curry favor with Su Ziqin.

When she got home from work, Li Ronghua discussed the matter of the thousand yuan with her parents.

Han Xiaoqin said, “Ronghua, are you silly? He doesn’t even want to acknowledge us as family, and yet you promise to give him a thousand yuan! Do you think our family is a bank?”

A thousand yuan!

In the past, they could only earn a hundred yuan in a year.

This Zhou Wenhua is good, asking for a thousand just like that!

Li Ronghua said, “Isn’t this to support Wenhua’s study? Mom, he is your future son-in-law, you wouldn’t refuse, would you?”

“We don’t have that much money at home.”

“Dad,” Li Ronghua turned her head to Goudan’s dad.

Goudan’s dad took a puff of his dry pipe, “In our house, your mother is the boss.”

“Mom!” Li Ronghua looked at Han Xiaoqin again.

Han Xiaoqin said, “A thousand yuan! Your brothers still need to go to school, where does the family have so much money?”

Li Ronghua continued, “Mom, you give me whatever you can, and I’ll figure out the rest myself. Surely that’s okay?”

“That’s not possible! Ronghua, let me tell you, you can do whatever with your salary, and we won’t ask you for a penny, but don’t think about getting any money from the family. Ronghua, haven’t you realized it yet? The Zhou family and Zhou Wenhua do not value you at all!”

Li Ronghua frowned, “Mom, if you don’t want to lend it, just say so! Why the need to insult Wenhua? He’s not that type of person!”
