Ch 92: Calling Me A Tomboy? You’re A Sissy
Bai Jingjing, even with her large heart, felt a little irritated. What kind of nonsense was this? Just eating a meal, they had to calculate the cost per person. According to him, as a grown man, he ate more than Shen Mingyue, so why should Shen Mingyue pay one-third of the cost?
Such a man who is so petty, it’s a wonder he can even get a wife.
After sitting down, Bai Jingjing couldn’t help but curse a few times.
At first, Shen Mingyue also felt depressed, but later she couldn’t help but laugh. She really didn’t expect that the “AA system” that many men talked about in later generations already existed at this time. Indeed, some men’s natures are the same across time.
“Alright, don’t be angry. Let’s just consider this a meal for the two of us, and treat it as watching a show.”
Bai Jingjing thought about it, that made sense. She had finally witnessed the diversity of species. This man was so unreliable; she had to tell her family when she got back, so they wouldn’t blame her later.
“It must be a bad luck year. If my family makes me go on another blind date, I’ll really lose my temper.”
After Bai Jingjing finished speaking, she couldn’t help but laugh too.
After the man left, the two women’s moods improved a lot. They ate and chatted.
Gao Jianzhang was sitting behind them. He subconsciously glanced at them a few times. His friend across from him saw this and lowered his voice, saying softly, “Did you take a liking to that female comrade? She’s really pretty, but unfortunately, she’s married.”
Gao Jianzhang frowned, “What’s wrong with you? Why are you so lecherous and uncouth, just like Tan Liming?”
The fat man clicked his tongue, “What are you pretending for? If you didn’t think she was pretty, you wouldn’t have been staring at her for so long.”
Gao Jianzhang put down his chopsticks, “Who said I was looking at that pretty one? I was looking at Tan Liming’s blind date. How can this little girl eat so much? She ate as much as both of us combined!”
The fat man was speechless. This Gao Jianzhang was a talent. He ignored the beautiful woman and stared at the tomboy eating a lot. What was he thinking?
“No wonder he made Tan Liming run away. She eats too much. Who can afford to support her?”
“She does eat a lot. A normal family really can’t afford her. She also looks fierce.”
Gao Jianzhang nodded solemnly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his friend winking at him.
“What’s wrong? Is your eye twitching?”
Gao Jianzhang was a little puzzled. He didn’t know that Bai Jingjing was already standing behind him. The two women had finished their meal and were about to leave when they heard Gao Jianzhang’s comments.
Bai Jingjing was already holding her breath, and upon hearing this, she didn’t hold back. She directly reached out and grabbed Gao Jianzhang’s collar.
Gao Jianzhang felt a tightness in his throat, and then he was lifted from his seat.
Bai Jingjing gnashed her teeth, “So what if I eat a lot? I didn’t eat your family’s rice. Why do you need to worry about it?”
Gao Jianzhang was taller than Bai Jingjing, but he couldn’t move when grabbed by such a little girl. For a moment, everyone in the restaurant looked over.
Gao Jianzhang was usually a respectable person, and his face immediately turned red.
“Let’s talk properly. Quickly let me go.”
Bai Jingjing refused, tightening her grip until Gao Jianzhang started coughing, then she loosened her grip.
Gao Jianzhang was angry.
“So you can’t even be criticized for eating a lot? You tomboy!”
Bai Jingjing was about to leave, but when she heard Gao Jianzhang say this, she was instantly furious. Fine, fine, so he’s resorting to personal attacks, huh?
“Who are you calling a tomboy? You sissy!”
Gao Jianzhang had rosy lips and white teeth, was tall, and had a slender build. He really did have that sort of vibe.
When Shen Mingyue heard Bai Jingjing say this, she couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
These two were quite interesting. One was called a tomboy, and the other was called a sissy.
“You! You! You! Speak properly. Who are you calling a sissy? Can’t you see I’m a man?”
Bai Jingjing coldly snorted, “This time I’ll let it go, but if you dare to talk about others behind their backs again, watch out for a beating.”
After saying this, Bai Jingjing directly pulled Shen Mingyue’s hand and left.
Seeing this, the fat man across from Gao Jianzhang covered his belly and laughed until his sides hurt.
“Oh my god, this is hilarious! I winked at you, and you didn’t even see it. Serves you right for getting beaten up! But this little girl is quite interesting. Calling you a sissy, hahaha!”
He laughed even harder, completely ignoring the fact that his friend’s face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Gao Jianzhang hated it most when people called him effeminate. He wasn’t effeminate at all; he just looked too delicate. Before, in order to darken his skin a little, he spent a week sunbathing. When he saw his face turn darker, he was overjoyed. But after half a month, he began to shed his skin, and his face became even whiter afterward. After that, Gao Jianzhang gave up.
It wasn’t his fault that he looked delicate. He was still manly in his actions.
“Are you trying to die? You’re very happy to see me being bullied by a little girl, aren’t you?”
The fat man nodded, then quickly shook his head.
“Don’t talk nonsense. You’re my good brother. I’d be heartbroken if anything happened to you.”
Gao Jianzhang had no appetite to eat anymore. Being watched like a monkey was really shameful.
At this time, Shen Mingyue was almost at the shop. Bai Jingjing was quite unhappy along the way.
“I didn’t check the almanac before going out today. What kind of people did I meet? That man, he even had the nerve to call me a tomboy? He looked like a little girl, his face like a peeled egg. Unbelievable!”
Shen Mingyue laughed as she drove, thinking of Gao Jianzhang’s face. She thought that if he were in later generations, he could probably become a star. Wasn’t he the kind of pretty boy that little girls liked?
But this kind of appearance wasn’t popular in the 1980s. At this time, everyone liked men with strong features, thick eyebrows and big eyes. Guys like him weren’t popular with girls.
“You’re still amazing. If I encountered something like this, I could only endure it. I can’t fight back.”
Shen Mingyue was telling the truth. When out, it’s best not to have conflicts with men and ensure your safety.
Bai Jingjing, however, never feared these things, because men generally couldn’t beat her.
“My temper has improved. If it were in the military, I would have dislocated their arms.”
Thinking of that scene, Shen Mingyue couldn’t help but shiver.
Sister Jing, socially powerful and not much to say.
The two arrived at the shop, and Cao Shuangxi hadn’t been slacking off much, and was greeting customers.
Seeing Shen Mingyue and Bai Jingjing come in, she quickly smiled ingratiatingly.
Bai Jingjing pulled Shen Mingyue aside and whispered, “Sister Mingyue, since you talked to her last time, she’s been much more diligent and doesn’t slack off anymore. Looking at her performance, let’s just keep her. Come to think of it, she’s quite pitiful. Her family prefers sons over daughters, and her father would beat people when he’s in a bad mood.”
Shen Mingyue knew Bai Jingjing was kind-hearted, but sometimes kindness doesn’t always bring good results. She didn’t say anything. Someone like Cao Shuangxi wouldn’t be able to hold back for long before causing trouble. Just wait, and when the time comes, she’ll definitely let Bai Jingjing know how dangerous society can be.
