Transmigration: Flirted with My Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 640 - 639: She Must Have What Others Have!

Foreign Currency Vouchers are quite the rarity; one can only exchange for them with remittances from relatives abroad. Only with these vouchers can one shop at the Friendship Store or Overseas Chinese Store.

Here, not only can you find an unpredictable supply of foodstuffs, but also a variety of sought-after items—trendy clothing and hats, cigarettes, home appliances, and even luxury Swiss watches.

These vouchers were gathered by Elder Ji as a meeting gift for his newly acknowledged granddaughter. Lin Nianhe initially refused to accept them, but was rebutted by Elder Ji’s insistence that "one must not refuse a gift from an elder."

Afterwards, Lin Nianhe even specially asked Mr. Lin, who nonchalantly suggested she buy something for herself and not to worry about Elder Ji.

So, Lin Nianhe planned to spend these vouchers in Sui City.

Of course, she still interrupted Wen Lan’s study path. If not for wanting to bring her best sisters along, she would not have come to find them.

"Wow, wow, wow wow wow!"

Unlike the crowded Cooperative Society, there were very few people here.

Upon entering, Wen Lan and Wang Shumei couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.

Without Lin Nianhe leading the way, they wouldn’t even think of passing by this area.

"Come, come, come," Lin Nianhe said generously, gripping a stack of Foreign Currency Vouchers, waving her small hand, "pick whatever you like."

She spoke with such ease and naturalness, yet Wang Shumei and Wen Lan did not really pick anything, for these vouchers were really hard to come by and they weren’t like a meal of dumplings—one could freeload without concern.

Lin Nianhe didn’t press them. She bought watches for Mr. Lin and Aunt Lin, selected a blue and white porcelain tea set for Elder Ji, chose a shirt for Lin Huaizhou, and after much deliberation, picked out a leather wallet for Su Yuncheng.

"Do you like it?" Lin Nianhe asked him.

"I like it." Su Yuncheng nodded, his eyes full of tenderness.

Lin Nianhe took out a photo of herself from her wallet, placed it into the new wallet, then asked, "Do you still like it now?"

"Like it even more!"

Lin Nianhe smiled, slipped the wallet into his pocket, then turned around intending to pick some other items for Wang Shumei and Wen Lan.

"Aren’t you buying anything for yourself?" Su Yuncheng frowned slightly.

Lin Nianhe glanced at Wang Shumei and Wen Lan who were looking at each item by the counter, and softly said, "I don’t really want anything... It’s great if Sister Shumei and Sister Lan like it, that’s enough for me to buy for them."

Elder Ji’s Foreign Currency Vouchers weren’t few, but they weren’t unlimited either. Now that she had finished selecting the intended gifts, she was left with a pitifully small number of vouchers in her hand.

She didn’t lack these things; making her sisters happy was more important.

Su Yuncheng’s brows furrowed slightly again, about to suggest returning his wallet when Lin Nianhe had already run over to Wang Shumei and Wen Lan, a voucher in each hand: "Come, come, come, I’m selecting gifts for my two dear sisters."

"Huh? You should keep them to buy something for yourself."

"Right, silly girl, we don’t lack anything."

"But I really want to buy for you two... Come on, since we’re here, you choose for yourselves, so I don’t pick something that doesn’t suit your taste..."

Su Yuncheng stood still, watching Lin Nianhe’s figure, silent for a long time.

Two days later, the autumn trade fair ended.

Tomorrow, they would be boarding the train to go back.

Lin Nianhe was about to attend a summary meeting, when Su Yuncheng suddenly knocked on her door.

"What’s up?"

"I’ve asked for leave for you, come with me."

Su Yuncheng took her by the hand and brought her to the Overseas Chinese Store again.

"Huh?"

Lin Nianhe was baffled.

She was even more bewildered when, upon being asked "Do you have vouchers?", Su Yuncheng took out Foreign Currency Vouchers from his wallet.

Lin Nianhe: "...?"

He couldn’t have robbed some foreign merchant, could he?

Su Yuncheng stuffed all the Foreign Currency Vouchers from his wallet into her hands, and it was even more than what Elder Ji had given her.

"Please have Mr. Shen exchange some for me," Su Yuncheng explained. "Let’s go, buy what you like."

Lin Nianhe held the vouchers, staring blankly at him.

Was it because she didn’t buy anything for herself the other day that he...? ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

The corners of her mouth rose involuntarily, and there was a hint of moisture in her eyes.

Seeing that she wasn’t moving, Su Yuncheng simply took her wrist and dragged her off to shop.

He picked out watches for her, clothes, shoes and bags, and even those new snacks she had never seen before.

As if he wanted to buy the entire store for her.

All along the way, Lin Nianhe muttered "enough is enough", and by the end, she felt like a penny-pinching old lady.

Su Yuncheng didn’t think it was enough.

After spending the last voucher, he looked at her with apologetic eyes: "It was such a rush coming out, I didn’t bring much money, I’ll buy you more next time."

He was thinking that there were two people from the compound who had gone abroad to study, he could ask them to help.

Lin Nianhe saw him carrying bags full of stuff, she reached out and grabbed his sleeve: "There’s no need, Brother Yuncheng, really, I’m easy to maintain, there’s no need for you to spend so much."

Su Yuncheng: "...!"

She was concerned about his wallet.

She was concerned about how hard it was for him to earn money.

She really liked him, indeed.

Su Yuncheng knew that Lin Nianhe was very wealthy; the shares she received from Beijing Machinery Factory were probably enough to buy everything in the store.

But that was her private money, not what he gave her.

He wanted to give her more, and better.

Su Yuncheng looked at her, promising word by word: "Nianhe, I am willing to give you everything I have. If I can’t buy it for the time being, I will work hard and won’t let you wait too long."

Lin Nianhe: "...?"

Wasn’t she persuading him not to spend money? How had it backfired?

What kind of complex thoughts had he gone through during those few seconds of silence?

What Su Yuncheng was thinking, Lin Nianhe probably couldn’t guess.

But one thing was easy to guess—

Lin Nianhe got a photo of him and placed it into the wallet he had just bought for her.

She held the wallet with both hands, her brow furrowed in distress: "When I get back, I need to ask Uncle Ji for a chain to secure it to me... Losing money is not a big deal, but I can’t let others take your photo."

Lieutenant Colonel Su’s heart bloomed with joy!

He decided that he would buy all her things in the future.

...

The train on the return journey seemed to run slower, exacerbating the agony of those eager to get home.

But Lin Nianhe had it better.

She was busy.

Busy urging Wang Shumei and Wen Lan to study hard and improve every day, busy splashing cold water on the floating Factory Director Ji and assigning him tasks, and even busier getting mushy with Su Yuncheng discussing science.

Apart from Su Yuncheng, the other three wanted to throw her out of the train window.

When the train stopped at Beijing Station, Mr. Lin took time out of his schedule to meet his daughter again.

Lin Nianhe was well prepared, and as soon as she saw Comrade Old Lin, she handed him the bags.

"Dad, one pair of watches is for you and mom, one pair for Uncle Su and Aunt Su, the tea set is for Grandpa Ji, and the shirt is for brother," Lin Nianhe rapidly explained all the gifts and then sighed a breath of relief, her face breaking into a smile, "I missed you so much."

Mr. Lin’s eyes filled with surprise. Suppressing the urge to immediately open the gifts, he quickly stuffed the food and drinks he prepared into Lin Nianhe’s hands, while reminding her, "You were supposed to buy things for yourself, why did you end up buying for us instead? Do you still have enough money? It’s getting colder, why didn’t you put on more clothes?"
