Chapter 175: A Big Gift
Chapter 175
Representative of the fan club stepped forward to speak:
"This is Qin Wei's first birthday after the establishment of the fan club. She is like our child, and we have been watching her grow little by little.
Among us, some have mocked her clumsiness, while others have been angry because of her simple-mindedness causing trouble. We have also complained that she is too forgiving and witnessed her sufferings, thinking that she deserves it.
But watching her struggle all the way has become our habit. Despite this unlucky child repeatedly testing the limits of our tolerance, we swear not to care about her anymore. However, every morning, the first thing we do is to check on her, to see if she's doing fine, if there's any small progress?
Wow, the child went for a morning run again!
Hmm, it's forgivable to be lazy and wake up a little late occasionally!
Hey, she added five seconds to her handstand compared to last time!
Oh dear... she's sitting there rubbing her knees. Is she injured?
...
Although we are only in our teens and twenties, we are so concerned about a silly, innocent girl. We fear that she's tired, afraid she's being bullied, and worried she's getting hurt. In the group chat, some older sisters joke that they became mothers after becoming fans of Qin Wei. They have endless worries every day. It's quite magical that we all think the same way. So the fan group has become a group of "mom fans" thanks to Lüe, making us painlessly become mothers.
There are so many things the moms want to say to Lüe, but since our child is illiterate and won't receive letters, I'll read it out for her. Thank you for persisting despite all the ups and downs.
Also, the time to prepare your gifts was too tight, so they are a bit rushed. What we present are achievements from the past.
But please believe that the Wei Wind will work hard. We will study and work diligently. We want to be each other's pride.
Next year on this day, we will show you even more impressive achievements. The year after that, and the year after that, there will be many five-year and ten-year periods for Wei Wind and Qin Wei.
Before that, please demand high standards from yourself, Qin Wei. Strive in the direction of both virtue and talent. We will strive and move forward in our respective fields. Let's be young people with ideals, abilities, and responsibilities."
A video made by the fan club started playing on the big screen. It showcased the achievements shared by fans, including recent college entrance exam results and achievements in other fields.
Barrage comments:
"Lüe is dumbfounded, her eyes are getting red. Could she be moved to tears?"
"She's trying hard to look at the ceiling, not letting the tears fall. Hahaha!"
"Qin Jie (Sister Qin) really minds that you guys created a crying character for her in fan fiction, so she resists crying in public places. Hahaha!"
"You guys made me laugh until my tears disappeared!"
"On such a joyous day, shouldn't you read us a fan fiction to liven up the mood?"
"By the way, where is Qiao Sixiao?"
Qin Wei really struggled hard not to let her tears flow.
The host walked over and said:
"Seriously, I'm also moved. Does Wei Wei want to say something to the fans?"
Qin Wei rubbed her nose and said with a slightly choked voice to the fans:
"Don't argue with others on my behalf. If I can't handle even that, then I'm not worth your affection. Instead, focus on your studies and work diligently. Don't fail your exams and end up dropping out. Don't let me catch you failing and then crying about being cyberbullied by strangers."
Protests from fans:
"If you can't speak properly, then stay silent! Qin Wei, shut up!"
"What a fine young lady, why isn't she mute!"
"Our studies are monitored by our parents, so mind your own business!"
...
Afterward, Sun Tiantian prepared a gift, a video she edited, which was played on a big screen and received cheers from the fans:
"Director Sun is awesome!"
"Director Sun is the best!"
When asked for her thoughts on the video, Qin Wei said:
"Um, it's pretty good. You can play this video again when Qiao Sixiao has her birthday."
"Since you mentioned Teacher Qiao."
The host took over and smiled.
"We have also invited Teacher Qiao because she is a close friend of yours.
But she's too busy and couldn't make it back from the filming location. However, she agreed to join us via a live video. Qiao Teacher, are you listening?"
"I'm listening."
Qiao Sixiao's voice came through the speakers.
The screen switched, and Qiao Sixiao appeared.
"Teacher Qiao has been watching since the video started playing, so you'll have to make another video for her birthday."
The host said,
"Teacher Qiao, today is Weiwei's birthday. Do you have anything you want to say to her?"
"Qin Wei, happy birthday, that's all."
Did Qiao Sixiao finish speaking?
Qin Wei:
"Okay, thank you!"
"I've prepared a simple gift for you; I had my assistant bring it over."
Saying that, Qiao Sixiao's assistant walked up, holding a square wooden box in both hands.
Square and sleek, made of dark and shiny sandalwood...
It looks quite heavy...
Qin Wei glanced at it and turned to Qiao Sixiao, asking,
"Qiao, who gives someone this for their birthday? You..."
F***, she actually gave me an urn!!!
Before she finished the second half of her sentence, Qiao Sixiao's assistant opened the box, and in the center of the red velvet lining, there were rows of gold bars!!!
Ah! So dazzling!
Qin Wei's mind went blank, and after five seconds, it rebooted. She hesitated whether Qiao Sixiao was pranking her, so she picked up one of the bars.
It's not chocolate.
She weighed it in her hand, and it really was gold!
Upon closer inspection, there were many identical bars inside.
She had misunderstood Qiao Teacher. This box was meant for buying gold!
Barrage comments:
"Oh f***! Gold as a gift! What modest values are these!?"
"Is this how wealthy people express their feelings? So straightforward and rough?"
"Does Little Qiao need more friends? I'll be satisfied if she gives me one gold bar a year!"
"Does Little Qiao need a pet? The kind that went to college! I may not look like a dog, but I have all the dog-like qualities. Half a bar would be enough for me!"
"Give me ten grams of gold, and I'm yours!"
"No more excessive competition!"
...
Qin Wei was also dumbfounded. She roughly counted and found that there were a total of twenty-three bars in the box, each weighing a hundred grams. That means!!!
Without a calculator, she couldn't calculate the exact value of it on the spot! But it was a substantial amount!
She looked at the large screen in disbelief.
Qiao Sixiao seemed to anticipate her expression and was quite satisfied.
"Qin Wei, what do you want to say? Spit it out!"
Qiao Sixiao raised an eyebrow, urging her to continue.
"You're really a clever little devil."
Qin Wei had a fawning expression on her face, smiling as she accepted Qiao Sixiao's gift.
"Well, everyone saw it. This gift..."
Qin Wei turned to Li Yao and asked, "Is it legal to accept gold from colleagues?"
Li Yao couldn't help but laugh and assured her that it was safe to accept.
Qin Wei was content and wore a radiant smile. She felt that Qiao Sixiao on the other side of the video was also adorable.
"Qiao Teacher, thank you. I appreciate your thoughtfulness and care. I will definitely treasure it!"
