Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Waiting for the Stars (Second Update)
"That..." Tang Yue had never expected that the sweater would be unearthed by Tang Jun.
She stuffed the sweater into the blanket and pulled Tang Jun in, asking seriously, "You didn’t tell Mom, did you?"
"No."
Tang Jun felt that Tang Yue was being very secretive. Was there some secret about this sweater?
"It’s like this." Tang Yue cleared her throat and said, "Do you remember Uncle Mo’s classmate?"
"I do, Mo Siyu, Uncle Mo." Tang Jun’s little face immediately lit up with excitement.
Tang Jun almost instantly realized, and hesitantly said, "You... knitted it for him?"
"Just the other time, he helped me a few times, and in Shenzhen, he also helped me. Don’t you think I should give something in return?" Tang Yue spoke earnestly.
Tang Jun nodded and said, "You should give something, I hear he’s really impressive. I want to be impressive like him in the future."
"Sister, your knitted sweater is beautiful, I want one too." Tang Jun didn’t think much, taking Tang Yue’s words at face value and immediately looked pitifully at Tang Yue. In front of Tang Yue, he was just like a little child.
"I’ll knit one for you when winter comes." Tang Yue decisively promised, quietly observing Tang Jun’s expression to see if he had any suspicions, and only then did she quietly feel much relieved.
Afterwards, Tang Yue kept hiding the half-finished sweater every now and then, even wanting to finish it earlier, knitting late into the night every day.
A week later, Tang Yue finished the sweater, not having wasted her effort staying up late and rushing in the mornings. The sweater was teal-black with diamond-shaped gray checks and stripes on the front, looking quite nice.
The yarn she bought was a slightly more expensive type, and the finished sweater was soft and comfortable. Holding the shoulders of the sweater, she looked at it, silently guessing what kind of expression Mo Siyu would have when he received the sweater.
Men are generally less sensitive to cold, so would he be able to wear this sweater?
After finishing the sweater, assorted anxieties followed. Tang Yue’s gaze shifted downward, falling on the light pink watch on her wrist, her lips slightly curving upwards as she muttered: Mo Siyu, even if you can’t fit into the sweater, you still have to stuff yourself into it!
Tang Yue wrote a letter with great flair, and together with the sweater, sent them to Jing City, to the Bailutong Team.
Jing City.
Mo Siyu had earlier sent a watch through his own mother, and having received Tang Yue’s reply saying she had a gift for him, Mo Siyu then began the wait that felt as long as waiting for the stars and moon.
He went to the mail room every day.
During the day, he was busy with various things and barely had any thoughts.
But once the night fell, he felt the night was particularly unbearable.
"Li Wei, let’s go, run a few laps." Dressed in a thin layer of clothing, Mo Siyu went to Li Wei’s dormitory, and pulled Li Wei, Zhao Xiangqian, and Yan Dong to run together.
"Brother Mo, running again?" Li Wei, with somewhat wobbly legs, said, "I’m already exhausted from the day..."
Mo Siyu swept a cold glance over.
Li Wei and the others didn’t dare utter another half a sentence.
Ever since after the New Year, the occurrence of being dragged out by Brother Mo to run laps at night became frequent.
Mo Siyu ran fast, and they simply couldn’t keep up.
Thus, Mo Siyu ran ahead, while Li Wei and the others tiredly followed behind.
Sometimes having worked during the day, being dragged to run laps at night was absolutely exhausting.
But, the benefits are also obvious; they could clearly feel that their physical fitness had improved and felt more relaxed.
Li Wei said, "What do you think, when will Brother Mo win his beauty over?"
"Come on, little sister-in-law is only eighteen this year," Zhao Xiangqian rolled his eyes.
Yan Dong adjusted his glasses and said, "I think, this year he will definitely win his beauty. When has Brother Mo ever failed?"
"Cough." Zhao Xiangqian glared at him and said, "Dongzi, do you think this is defeating an enemy?"
Yan Dong pursed his lips and replied, "Xiangqian, don’t disbelieve it. How about we make a bet?"
"Let’s bet." Zhao Xiangqian immediately said, "I bet US$ 100 that Brother Mo definitely won’t win his beauty this year."
"I bet US$ 100 that Brother Mo will definitely bring little sister-in-law back this year," Yan Dong responded, his gaze turning towards Li Wei.
Zhao Xiangqian also looked towards Li Wei.
Li Wei cleared his throat and said, "Xiangqian, I also bet US$ 100."
"Da Wei, we will definitely win," Zhao Xiangqian laughed heartily, looking triumphantly at Yan Dong.
Li Wei dawdled and said, "Xiangqian, I’m on the same side as Dongzi. Who is Brother Mo? He’s like a god. Even if he can’t immediately marry little sister-in-law, he will definitely win his beauty."
Zhao Xiangqian’s triumphant smile froze on his face.
"Then, what counts as winning his beauty?" Zhao Xiangqian hurriedly asked.
"Um." Yan Dong and Li Wei looked at each other and said in unison, "Naturally, it’s her coming to the team."
Zhao Xiangqian’s face turned dark instantly, and he said, "It’s not fair, they aren’t even married yet, how can it count as winning his beauty?"
"Xiangqian, you say, she’s come to the team, how can it not count?" Yan Dong looked at Zhao Xiangqian with a playful smile, his eyes half-closed with pride. He patted Zhao Xiangqian’s shoulder and said, "Xiangqian, don’t worry, if Da Wei and I win the US$ 100, we will definitely treat you to a big meal."
Zhao Xiangqian: "..."
Is it too late for him to change his words now?
Thinking about that big meal, he felt pain for his money, um, when the time comes to eat, he should fast for three days to save up space to eat more.
"Did none of you have dinner?" Mo Siyu left them far behind and shouted at them.
Zhao Xiangqian turned his grief into strength and immediately sped up.
When they finally caught up, Mo Siyu said sternly, "With this physical fitness, if something really happens, don’t end up unable to run."
Yan Dong had a thought and asked, "Brother Mo, are we going to make deliveries?"
"Brother Mo, is it true?" Zhao Xiangqian’s previous sorrow instantly turned into anticipation.
Li Wei also looked at Mo Siyu with bright eyes.
Mo Siyu glanced at them and said, "In the next half month, none of you slack off."
"Yes!" The three, Li Wei, responded in unison, their voices so loud that people in the dormitory couldn’t help but look outside.
The squad running laps gradually grew larger, but Mo Siyu eventually came out to stop it, it was voluntary action, but everyone didn’t want to be worse than the others, if others could persist, they could too.
Thus, every evening Mo Siyu led a team running, hearing this news, the boss had nothing but praise for Mo Siyu, their Bailutong Team’s deliveries were always the fastest and safest.
