Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Bank Run Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Bank Run A few people checked the door plate number and walked two more rows inside.
“Number 32, this is it!”
Shen Zhaozhao stood at the back, watching the others step forward to ring the doorbell.
Soon, they saw Ye Wei’an come to open the door, dressed in a white dress looking like a real princess.
The layout of the villa was similar to Sheng Chuyi’s house, a three-story mansion, the living room specially decorated, and the dining table was set with flowers and various snacks.
As everyone entered, they couldn’t help but praise, “Vivian, your house is so big!”
“Yes, yes, your house is so beautiful!”
“It’s alright, feel free to look around!” Ye Wei’an smiled and invited everyone in.
“Oh, this is the gift we specially prepared for you.” Everyone started handing over their gifts to Ye Wei’an.
“Thank you all, you are too kind,” Ye Wei’an smiled as she accepted them. “I have prepared some fruits and snacks for you, help yourselves.”
After everyone had given their gifts, they turned to Shen Zhaozhao and said, “We all prepared gifts for Vivian, what about yours? You didn’t come empty-handed, did you?”
“No, I brought some snacks for classmate Ye Wei’an, from that shop by the school gate. I’ve tried them before, they are quite tasty.” Shen Zhaozhao handed over the snack gift box.
The snacks from that shop were indeed delicious; only they were too expensive. She had spent what was left of her pocket money for the month, which was just enough to buy one box.
Upon hearing this, several people immediately showed disdainful expressions and sneered, “I thought it was something good, but it’s just a few shabby snacks.”
“In this day and age, someone actually gives snacks as a gift.”
“Typical small-town mentality, hasn’t seen much of the world, can’t even present a decent gift. I said we shouldn’t have invited her.”
The crowd continued throwing mocking remarks at Shen Zhaozhao.
Shen Zhaozhao was actually quite calm, as she had prepared herself for this before she arrived, and she didn’t really care much about what others said.
It was just a bit painful to part with those snacks.
Knowing that she had only eaten from that shop once before, because it was too expensive, she usually couldn’t bring herself to splurge on it for herself.
Ah, if she had known, she wouldn’t have come.
It would have been better to keep the snacks for herself!
“Alright, let’s not talk , it’s also Zhaozhao’s kind gesture. Besides, she’s right, those snacks are really tasty, I even specifically ordered some from there today to treat you all,” Ye Wei’an smiled and defended Shen Zhaozhao.
Hearing that the host had prepared snacks from that shop to serve them, Shen Zhaozhao instantly felt happier, thinking this wasn’t too much of a loss after all.
Seeing her still able to smile, everyone was speechless.
Does this person have no pride at all?
If it were them, they would have lost face and left by now.
“By the way, I heard that Chuyi also lives in this complex,” losing interest in teasing Shen Zhaozhao further, the crowd changed the subject.
“Really? Vivian, why don’t you ask him to join the housewarming party too?” the crowd suggested to Ye Wei’an!
“Maybe not, he probably won’t come,” Ye Wei’an was somewhat tempted but worried about being rejected.
“Just ask, it’s no big deal, what if he comes?” the girl beside her urged.
“But I don’t have Chuyi’s WeChat,” Ye Wei’an said, looking troubled.
The others exchanged glances; they didn’t have it either.
