421 Complain

“What are you doing?! Can you afford to pay for damage to the phone?” The staff in the post office was shocked when he saw Yu Yan’s actions. He hurriedly picked up the receiver and heaved a sigh of relief when he heard a normal sound coming from the other end. This phone was very expensive!

“This is the only place in our town that has a public phone. If it’s broken, there’s one less.”

“That’s right. Who is this? We usually have to queue during holidays. If there’s one less, we’ll have to wait even longer.”

Yu Yan was startled by the other party’s roar. When she heard everyone’s complaints about her, she was embarrassed and angry. However, seeing that the other party had many people, she couldn’t go against them. She could only stomp her feet and run out of the post office angrily before walking back to the village.

At this moment, Yao Nian had been waiting in the lobby of the dormitory building for a long time already.

When Yao Nian saw Yu Yan, he immediately stood up and walked forward. Then, he handed the lunch box over with a smile. “You went to get the transfer form, right? Seeing that you haven’t returned until dinner time, I knew that you had to go to town, so I saved food for you.”

Yu Yan was in a bad mood, so she naturally didn’t treat Yao Nian amiably. Instead of taking the lunch box, she entered the living room and sat on the bench.

Seeing this, Yao Nian hurriedly sat down beside her and looked at Yu Yan with concern. “What’s wrong? Did things not go well?”

After Yu Yan gritted her teeth and pursed her lips, Yao Nian tactfully went to get a glass of water and placed it in Yu Yan’s hand. “You must be tired after being out for so long. Drink some water and rest for a while.”

Yu Yan took a few sips of water before catching her breath. Then, she told him about how she suspected that Zhao Lin had lost her remittance slip in order to curry favor with Yu Bing. She also complained about her adoptive parents and brother. “I wonder what my parents are up to. No one answered their phones!”

When Yao Nian heard that Yu Yan didn’t get a single cent today, he couldn’t help but complain to Yu Yan. He wanted to coax Yu Yan to buy a chicken, but now, his plans were ruined!

Although his mind was racing, Yao Nian didn’t dare to show it on his face and he comforted Yu Yan softly, “Maybe your parents have something on. Try calling them tomorrow.”

When Yu Yan heard that she had to go to town to make calls again tomorrow, she felt even more vexed.

There was a phone in the village committee’s office, but it was mainly used for docking work or very urgent matters. People like Yu Yan were definitely not allowed to use it.

Yu Yan still had 3.5 yuan, which she had to spend on calls. Moreover, she had promised the others that she would return the money in September. This meant that she had to contact her family as soon as possible. She couldn’t care less about her pride anymore and she asked Yao Nian, “Can you lend me 2 yuan? I’ll return it to you when my family sends the money over.”

Yao Nian was stunned. He had just received 10 yuan from his mother a few days ago and couldn’t bear to spend it.

When Yu Yan saw Yao Nian’s hesitant expression, she thought of what Cui Jin had said on the phone about buying a watch for Jiang Chun and her expression turned ugly. “Other people give their partners a watch without even batting an eye, but it’s so difficult for me to borrow just two yuan from you. In that case, you don’t have to lend it to me!”

Yu Yan was so angry that she snatched the lunch box from Yao Nian’s hand and stood up to go upstairs. Yao Nian didn’t dare to let Yu Yan return to her room in anger and he hurriedly stopped her before coaxing her carefully.

After Yao Nian heaved a sigh, he took out two yuan from his pocket and handed it to Yu Yan. “You’re my girlfriend, so how can I refuse to give you two yuan? I just want to save up more money and buy you a decent gift in the future. I’m not as rich as other people’s boyfriends, but I also want to try my best to give you the best.”

When Yu Yan heard this, she rolled her eyes at Yao Nian. “Really?”

Yao Nian immediately swore. “Of course it’s true!”

After Yao Nian expressed his stance, Yu Yan no longer fussed over the watch. As he watched Yu Yan leave, Yao Nian rolled his eyes angrily.

Yu Yan even wanted a watch! If not for Yu Yan’s family’s connections, would he have humbled himself to curry favor with her? Now, he didn’t even get any benefits from Yu Yan, yet Yu Yan dared to ask for precious things like watches from him!
