People Found Out About The Base I Built On the Moon

Chapter 1070: Chapter 139 Regeneration_5

Two months ago?

Zhao Yu carefully recalled that two months ago, he indeed had a bit of interaction with Hao Jingjing.

It seemed that at that time, when Jingjing was cleaning the cafeteria, she accidentally bumped into a girl and got scolded badly, drawing quite a bit of attention.

He was mainly portraying the rich second generation persona at the time, and it was also to show off in front of Su Xinxin, so he generously compensated the girl’s meal to help Jingjing out of the awkward situation.

“So that’s how it was…”

Zhao Yu suddenly understood, then was a bit surprised.

His main purpose at that time was to impress Su Xinxin and he didn’t pay much attention to Jingjing.

But unexpectedly, Jingjing took that incident very seriously and even mustered the courage to add him as a friend and then sent a thank you message.

“This person…”

Zhao Yu felt moved, feeling in his heart that Jingjing was decent and had good character.

“Are you there?”

Zhao Yu did not hesitate and immediately sent a message to Jingjing.

At the same time, he looked up at Jingjing.

He noticed that Jingjing was not looking at her phone but was listening to the class very earnestly.

Seeing this, he shook his head, unlike him—a poor student—Jingjing was the hardworking type, concentrated on listening in class, and didn’t speak unnecessarily, let alone check her phone.

Throughout the class, Zhao Yu pondered on how to improve his favorability with Jingjing, not absorbing anything the teacher said.

Now, he had no interest in thinking about his studies.

The last class ended quickly, and Zhao Yu sat in the classroom without moving.

When school had just ended, there were too many people, and Zhao Yu felt uneasy, thinking of waiting until there were fewer people to leave.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Jingjing sent him a message.

“Yes, sorry, I was in class just now and didn’t see…”

After such a long time, Jingjing finally replied.

Zhao Yu noticed that Jingjing was now leaning on the desk, as if her stomach hurt.

“What’s wrong, do you have a stomach ache?”

“It’s not that…”

Upon hearing Zhao Yu’s words, Jingjing took her phone from under the desk and placed it on top of the desk.

But still, she looked around left and right as if afraid of being seen by others.

Is this… too much of a good student?!

Zhao Yu realized that she was afraid of being seen using her phone and felt very self-conscious.

Both of them were in the class at that moment, speaking face-to-face would have been more appropriate under normal circumstances.

But now, his reputation wasn’t good, and being seen talking to Jingjing would not be good for her.

Jingjing, on the other hand, was purely due to social anxiety and didn’t dare to run over to Zhao Yu to talk.

After chatting awkwardly for a few sentences, Zhao Yu finally got to the point.

“Do you know any channels for part-time jobs?” Zhao Yu asked out of the blue.

He wasn’t actually planning to work part-time but needed a topic to increase communication with Jingjing and to raise her favorability towards him.

After all, compared to a part-time job that pays a few tens of dollars a day, increasing Jingjing’s favorability was clearly more profitable.

At this point, Zhao Yu was only interested in money, and for money, he could even deceive Jingjing’s emotions.

After all, he had already set his heart on Su Xinxin and didn’t really regard someone like Jingjing highly.

After a long time, Jingjing finally replied.

“If you need it, I can speak to the boss…”

It was clear that for someone socially anxious like her, it took a lot of courage to say that.

Hearing Jingjing say this, Zhao Yu hesitated instead; something like gathering utensils in the cafeteria, as Jingjing had done, would be a challenge for him.

Especially now, with his charade as a rich second-generation blowing up and becoming widely known.

Just thinking about collecting dishes and cleaning in the cafeteria and being subjected to who knows how many people’s stares and discussions made Zhao Yu feel uncomfortable all over.

“That part-time job, I might not be suitable for…” Zhao Yu added a sheepish emoji to the message he sent.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to.” Jingjing promptly replied with another sentence.

Zhao Yu was at a loss for words, this person was too socially anxious, she apologized for every little thing.

At that moment, Zhao Yu noticed that the students in the class had mostly left.

In today’s colleges, not many students stay in class after school to study, not to mention it was mealtime.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu suddenly remembered Jingjing’s part-time job and quickly said, “Aren’t you still working part-time?”

“Ah right, I won’t talk anymore, I’m heading to work…” Jingjing abruptly stood up, grabbed her phone, and rushed outside in a panic.

Zhao Yu watched her go, noticing that Jingjing didn’t look back from beginning to end, as if there was some flood or beast behind her, rushing to escape.

“Oh well, never mind, we’re still friends, I’ll find another opportunity to chat next time!”

Zhao Yu got up and walked towards the classroom exit.

Arriving at the hallway, he looked down and saw that most of the students had left, with only a few scattered students still heading out.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu quickly went downstairs, headed straight for the supermarket, bought a cup of instant noodles, and promptly returned to the dormitory to make do with a meal.

Glancing at his schedule, Zhao Yu noticed he had no classes in the afternoon, and his eyes lit up as he quickly sent Jingjing a message.

“No classes this afternoon, what are your plans after your cafeteria part-time job?”

After waiting three minutes without receiving a reply, Zhao Yu realized she must be working and couldn’t check her phone.
