Chapter 501: A Difficult Situation
The student union committee member opened an invoice for the four of them and instructed, "Tomorrow, gather at 10 a.m. at the school gate. There would be a bus to take everyone together. Our trip is further this time around. This is the map and things to take note of. You guys can go back and study it."
"Sure." Yang Ming took the map, read a few key points, and nodded.
"Don't be late..." The student union committee member reminded them.
"No problem." As Yang Ming said this, he saw an acquaintance coming across from the opposite side. Apparently, he didn't notice Yang Ming and went straight in the front of the student union committee member. He patted on the committee member's shoulder. "Tie Zi, thank you for today's matter! Come. Let me buy you a meal!"
"Hai, it was a small matter..." The student union committee member said, "Zhang Weihan, why do you need to be polite to me? But let your voice be softer. I still have a guest!"
"En? Yang Ming?" Zhang Weihan looked up and suddenly said, "How come you are here?"
"Brother Zhang, my friend and I came to sign up for the winter camp. It is he who needed your help!" Yang Ming pointed to Zhang Bing and explained.
"Hah, we would be going together then?" Zhang Weihan suddenly smiled. "Zhang Bing, right? You should thank him. He was the one settling it!" Zhang Weihan acknowledged the student union committee member with a look.
"Hah, thank you. Buddy, let's go. Have a meal together. My treat," said Zhang Bing.
"Let's go! Let's go. Go together!" Zhang Weihan also wanted to be closer to Yang Ming. After all, his fate was still in Yang Ming's godfather.
"Okay!" This time the student union committee member didn't reject it anymore. He nodded and then introduced himself, "My name is Li Guangkun, the secretary of the PR Department in the Student Union."
"Hi, my name is Yang Ming. This is my girlfriend, Chen Mengyan." Yang Ming smiled and shook hands with Li Guangkun. He then introduced Chen Mengyan.
"Hehe, my brother's girlfriend is really beautiful. Brother, you are blessed!" Li Guangkun had heard from Zhang Weihan before that Yang Ming was the godson of Liu Weishan. He wanted to apply as Liu Weishan's graduate student next year, too, so naturally, he wanted to build a closer relationship with Yang Ming.
"Zhang Bing. You should know me already?" Zhang Bing smiled and said, "This is my wife, Zhao Sisi."
"Ha! How can I not know you? Kid, you are pretty sly, aren't you? You also knew to leave blank answers for the questions you didn't know how to answer to ease my operation. I just had to find someone with similar handwriting to yours to fill in some strokes and it was done." Li Guangkun showed his appreciation without being obvious. "I like to do things for smart people! There were some self-righteous people who didn't know how to answer and yet they filled in the blank foolishly, making it so hard to change!"
Zhang Bing looked at Yang Ming and felt slightly embarrassed. He thought in his heart, Yang Ming is quite experienced in this matter!
It was easy to form an alliance with people who have done something bad together. Due to Zhang Bing's incident, it only required a few words and the relationship between several people had begun to get very close to one another.
While eating, Yang Ming learned from Li Guangkun's words that tomorrow's winter camp was completely organized by the student union. There were no teachers involved, so everyone can just let loose and play...
Of course, this was the surface meaning. The underlying meaning was that there was no need to refrain from anything between couples. They could just sleep together directly at night... This made Zhang Bing felt elated, but Chen Mengyan shyly lowered head.
After the six of them finished eating, they separated. Although Zhang Bing insisted on paying the bill, it was finally paid by Zhang Weihan. Yang Ming pulled Zhang Bing and told him not to insist on it. After all, Zhang Weihan was sincerely wanting to treat them.
Zhang Bing drove his car and took Yang Ming and the others to the supermarket near the university. They were getting ready to buy some necessities for tomorrow. Although the two hundred yuan they just paid included the accommodation and rental fee for the pieces of equipment, girls like Zhao Sisi and Chen Mengyan would still need to bring some snacks.
After parking the car, the four of them entered the supermarket. Zhang Bing pushed a cart, and Yang Ming's hand was empty. Zhang Bing was complaining how unfair it was but there was no other way.
When Chen Mengyan and Zhao Sisi entered the supermarket, they went straight to the snack area. The two of them each took a small basket and went crazy buying the goods in a sweep. However, Yang Ming and Zhang Bing were more practical and only bought some canned and plastic sealed food.
When the two of them passed by the daily necessities, Zhang Bing suddenly looked around and said, "Zhao Sisi and the rest didn't follow us, right?"
"No, they're far away from you." Yang Ming casually took a look with his x-ray vision. Chen Mengyan and Zhao Sisi were studying what kind of plums were better in the snack area.
"That's good." Zhang Bing smiled and took a box of condoms from the shelf. He then said to Yang Ming, "Do you want it?"
"Er..." Yang Ming sweated. I don't seem to be able to use this thing at the moment. Also, Yang Ming really hadn't bought these things yet!
Lan Ling said that she had her own way. Although Yang Ming didn't ask, he thought it should be something to do with her voodoo. For Xiao Qing, she was infertile, so Yang Ming simply didn't use this stuff at all.
"Ha, you still want to be embarrassed in front of me?" Zhang Bing looked at Yang Ming with a wily smile.
"Cough, you know. After Lan Ling left, Chen Mengyan and I have not progressed to that step yet. What's the use of me purchasing it?" Yang Ming had to explain as it was. The thing about Xiao Qing was something that he could never speak to Zhang Bing about.
"Ha, this was the case. No wonder you have this expression. It's okay. Isn't this winter camp an opportunity? If you grasped it right, the matter between you and Chen Mengyan would definitely be settled!" Zhang Bing smiled and said, "I say, Yang Ming, Chen Mengyan and you are also both interested parties with one another. You both have been together for a long time now. Why is there no substantial progress?"
"F*ck, it's not that you don't know. Last time, because of Lan Ling's matter, Mengyan had been ignoring with me for a long time. Even if I want to, I need to have the chance!" Yang Ming shrugged helplessly.
"Then buy a box, just in case." Zhang Bing said and took a box from the shelf again. "Jissbon [1], ultra-thin. Very pleasurable!"
"..." Yang Ming was speechless. He looked at the small box in Zhang Bing's hand and said, "Let's just leave it at your place first. Chen Mengyan and I have not yet reached that step. If she saw that I have this thing, she may guess that I was doing something with some other women!"
"No problem." Zhang Bing directly paid at the supermarket's checkout counter and then left it in his coat pocket.
Yang Ming and Zhang Bing bought some other items like disposable gloves, disposable tablecloths, and disposable napkins before meeting up with Chen Mengyan. Seeing that the baskets in the hands of Chen Mengyan and Zhao Sisi were all full, they couldn't help but smile. "Two days of winter camp, can you finish so many things?"
Even though they said this, Yang Ming and Zhang Bing still took the shopping baskets and poured them into the shopping cart. The four people pushed the cart together and came to the counter to settle the bill. However, as they walked out of the magnetic checkpoint of the supermarket desk, the alarm next to it suddenly made a sharp and harsh sound.
A security guard immediately came over and stopped Zhang Bing from crossing over. "Sir, please wait."
"What's wrong?" asked Zhang Bing, stunned.
"I suspect that you have goods from the supermarket with you. Please take off your coat and show me if there is anything in it," said the security guard.
"F*ck, I have bought all of these things with cash. Why would I steal your things?" Zhang Bing frowned and pointed to several big packets in the shopping cart. "Do you think I look like someone who can't afford to buy something?"
"This... sir, I didn't mean this. I didn't say that you stole something... but the alarm rang. I have to check it out according to the regulations of the supermarket. Please don't make it difficult for me..." The security guard looked at Zhang Bing's attire and the things he bought. This person doesn't seem like a thief. His words became more polite too.
Looking at the anxious face of the little security guard, Zhang Bing felt really bad to continue troubling him. He was just doing his responsibility as a salary worker. Zhang Bing knew that it was useless to trouble him.
"How do you want to check?" Zhang Bing asked helplessly.
"You take off your coat, and then you walk through the magnetic checkpoint again." The little security guard said, "Sir, can you think about it again? Is there anything that hasn't been paid in your pocket... or Is there something that you have paid for and yet you didn't transfer the goods out through the cashier's dedicated channel?"
"Ah? The things that are paid inside also can't pass through?" Zhang Bing slapped the back of his head and suddenly remembered that there were two boxes of condoms in his pocket.
"The things that were paid also can't go through here. They must be handed over to the cashier for inspection..." The little security guard explained.
"Then, can I not take it out?" Zhang Bing felt a little difficult.
"I'm afraid this can't be done..." The little security guard felt even more difficult. "Sir, if it's a paid item, you can take it out and check it. What are you afraid of?"
"But this thing..." Zhang Bing looked at Zhao Sisi. Although the two people already had that relationship, it would be strange if Zhao Sisi wasn't angry at Zhang Bing for taking out two boxes of condoms in public!
