In the chat record sent by Zhou Ying, there was also a comment from An Wen, who asked An Wen, "Your living room is so big and the decoration is very high-end. It must have cost a lot of money to decorate this house."

Wen Li thought that senior students were indeed pragmatic. Their focus was not on the romantic atmosphere that An Wen deliberately created, but on other people's houses and decorations.

They are indeed young people who are ready to accept the beatings from society.

The housing prices in the small county town were not expensive, but the neighborhood where An Wen lived was positioned as high-end. Wen Li remembered that his uncle's family had also visited that neighborhood and said it was too expensive. The smallest apartment was almost two million, and with the renovation, it was estimated to be no less than three million.

As expected, An Wen replied to the classmate, saying, "My home is made of top-quality decoration materials. Many materials are not available locally, so they are specially mail-ordered from abroad. Fortunately, the labor cost here is cheap, so it only cost more than 1.5 million to decorate this house."

This caused quite a stir among her classmates. Some said sourly that the wedding house his family prepared for him cost less than 900,000 yuan, but An Wen's family spent 1.5 million yuan on decoration alone. Others asked An Wen's parents in a roundabout way what kind of business they were in to make them so rich.

Of course, there were also people in the group who flattered An Wen, saying that her parents were not only good at making money, but also good at educating their daughters. Her elder sister went abroad to study, and her younger sister was admitted to Shanghai University as a graduate student based on her own abilities. Both sisters were independent, inspiring, rich and beautiful women.

An Wen did not reply, but continued to tell everyone in the group about how Professor Huo treated her at her home.

"The biggest shrimp was eaten by Professor Huo. My mother really doesn't love me anymore."

"I forgot to tell my mom that Professor Huo doesn't eat spicy food, so my mom put chili peppers in all the dishes she cooked. But Professor Huo still ate a little bit of everything. Looking at his painful expression, I secretly prayed that I wouldn't have to take him to have his stomach pumped tomorrow."

"Classmates, who would have thought that Professor Huo didn't know how to use a sparkler? He kept lighting the handheld end with a lighter and complained that there was something wrong with the sparkler I bought. Hahaha, I can't take it anymore. I'm dying of laughter. My stomach hurts."

"Professor Huo is so handsome. The stars in the sky are not as bright as his eyes, and the fireworks in the streets are not as warm as his smile."

...

Wen Li exited the chat history.

She wanted to type, but her fingers were frozen and couldn't move at all. She had no choice but to send a voice message to Zhou Ying.

"Tell me, am I particularly unsuccessful in seducing Huo Yuanchen?"

Zhou Ying replied honestly, "It is indeed a failure. But it is not too late for you to realize this now."

Wen Li became even more depressed.

Zhou Ying comforted her, "Everyone has their own preferences. It just so happens that Huo Yuanchen doesn't like your type. It doesn't mean that you are not attractive to others."

Wen Li wanted to say that it was useless for her to be charming to others, because others didn't have Pratt.

When she got home, her grandmother had already gone to bed. Her parents and her uncle's family were staying up all night to celebrate the New Year. They spoke in low voices for fear of disturbing her grandmother, and the atmosphere in the house seemed a little deserted.

Seeing her come back, cousin Winnie stood up and pulled her outside, "Come on, let's go set off fireworks."

Wen Li didn't see Winnie holding fireworks in her hand and thought she was going to buy some on the roadside. When she came back, she saw a lot of people selling fireworks on the roadside. Many people were buying and setting off fireworks. Both adults and children had smiles on their faces when they were setting off fireworks.

Winnie took her to the side of the road, pointed to a white car parked there and said, "Go to the trunk and pick whichever one you like."

Wen Li was not polite and went over to ask the vendor selling firecrackers, "Which one is the most powerful to set off?"

"This is a Gatling gun." The vendor handed her boss a cannon barrel. It was heavy and really powerful.

Wen Li was very satisfied. "Take ten. Can I scan the code?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Winnie and the vendor burst into laughter.

The vendor winked at Winnie and said, "Your cousin is quite wild. She wanted to use the Gatling gun right away. Many girls don't dare to use this."

Winnie said , "Wen Li has been brave since she was young. She is a leader among children. Wherever she goes, there are a group of children who are happy to play with her."

I felt very proud and honored when I said it.

Wen Li noticed that something was wrong with the two and asked, "Who is this?"

"Your cousin's husband, Tong Hao." The man spoke first.

Winnie glared at Tong Hao coquettishly and said, "It doesn't count without the marriage certificate."

Wen Li called out politely, "Hello, brother-in-law."

Tong Hao was very satisfied. He pointed at the fireworks in the trunk and patted his chest and said, "I'll book the whole place for you two sisters to set off the fireworks tonight."

There was nothing else in his trunk except for fireworks of all kinds, four full boxes.

Wen Li stuck out his tongue, "Oh my goodness, there are so many, can you put them all?"

Winnie said, "Don't we still have tomorrow? We can definitely finish these few boxes."

Wen Li still underestimated the fighting power of her and Winnie, especially the Gatling gun. It was so powerful that she put a whole box of Gatling guns by herself. She dragged the barrel with both hands, put one foot on the stone steps, her eyes were bright, her face was full of excitement, and she was as majestic as a female general.

Even Tong Hao said that she was born in the wrong era. If she was born in ancient times, she would probably be a Mulan.

Winnie saw that she was having fun, so she took photos of her. Although Wen Li is a photographer, she rarely takes photos, not even selfies. Every time Winnie looked through her Moments, she found it boring. Apart from promoting the studio, there were only some landscape photos.

After the fireworks, Winnie sent her some photos. Some of them were very good, showing her beauty and coolness.

Wen Li picked out these photos and posted them on her Moments along with some photos of fireworks she had taken.

She was so excited that she left a comment under the circle of friends: "Some people say that if I were born in ancient times, I would become a female general."

Zhou Ying replied immediately, "You? Female general? More like a national evil queen."

Wen Li just thought she was jealous and didn't reply to her.

Zhou Ying came to chat with her privately again, "Who is the man setting off fireworks with you? You have a new suitor so soon?"

Wen Li looked through her Moments and found a photo of her and Tong Hao setting off a Gatling gun together. In fact, Tong Hao was not close to her at all, and her face could not be seen, only the outline. The two were competing at the time, and the two fireworks intersected in the air, which made it appear that they were together.

Zhou Ying was still asking her, "The one who said you were a female general, is that him? Sure, he's very sweet, when can you bring him out to meet me?"

Wen Li was speechless and told her, "It's my cousin's husband who hasn't even got married yet."

He added, "The person who took the photo is my cousin. Any questions?"

Zhou Ying sent a disappointed emoticon and said she was going to bed.

Wen Li had been setting off fireworks all night and his body was full of the smell of gunpowder. He went back, took a quick shower, and went to bed.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Hu Huifen came to call her to eat dumplings. She saw someone comment in her Moments and clicked on it, only to find that Huo Yuanchen had withdrawn a comment in her Moments.

"Psycho." Wen Li muttered softly.

In the afternoon, Winnie came to see her, looking mysterious, and smiled slyly when she saw her.

"Wen Li, your boyfriend is waiting for you outside."
