Tao Lili was stunned. She knew what Hu Xinyue meant, so she held the gift box in her hand and didn't know what to do for a while.
Hu Xinyue then said: "Lili, we all know about your family affairs. I am very happy that you can come today. You can take the gift back and return it, and you can also supplement the family income."
Supplementing the family income? On the surface, Hu Xinyue's words were for Tao Lili's sake, and she seemed very considerate, but these words should have been said in private. It was actually very hurtful to say them in front of everyone, and they did not take Tao Lili's inner feelings into consideration at all.

Sure enough, after Hu Xinyue said this, Tao Lili didn't know what to say. She had already taken out the gifts. It would definitely not be good to take them back, but not taking them back would make her seem very ungrateful.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the box became a little awkward. As a result, other students said: "Yes, yes, Lili, just take your gift back."
"That's right, your family is like that. How can you have money to buy gifts? Why do you want to save face? Don't waste money."
"Well, now you should save as much as you can. Our pretty class monitor doesn't lack your gift."
…
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another, and it seemed that if Tao Lili didn't take back the gift, she would be trying to make a fool of herself, which made Tao Lili feel very uncomfortable, but she couldn't explain it.
Fortunately, Chen Yu spoke at this time. She looked at Hu Xinyue and said, "Just accept Lili's gift."
Hu Xinyue glanced at Chen Yu and felt that Chen Yu was very ignorant. She frowned and said, "Chen Yu, you haven't been in Chongshan recently. Don't you still know what happened at Lili's family?"
"No, I know what happened at Lili's family, but what happened at Lili's family and the gift she gave you are two different things. Today is your birthday. Lili giving you a birthday gift represents her sincerity, and you should accept it. As
Classmate, if you really care about Lili, you can express your feelings, and I believe you have the ability to help." Chen Yu said calmly.
Although Chen Yu didn't explicitly say how he should help Tao Lili, the meaning of his words was already obvious, and Hu Xinyue's face suddenly became unsightly.
Hu Xinyue's family is rich, and the family conditions of other classmates are not bad. It should be no problem for everyone to lend some money to Tao Lili, but no one is willing to take the lead, as if they are afraid that their money will be wasted.
Just as beautiful.
Not only that, but at this moment Feng Li, Ge Chao's bitch, suddenly said in a strange manner: "Hey, Chen Yu, I haven't seen you for a while, and your eloquence has gotten better. You are so eloquent? It seems that you are doing well outside, right? Do you want to lead me first?"
Do you want to express your feelings to Tao Lili?"
Feng Li knew that Chen Yu had been home for more than a week, and most likely he was unemployed, so he deliberately said this to make Chen Yu embarrassed.
After hearing this, Tao Lili quickly stood up and said to Feng Li: "No need, Chen Yu has already..."
"Stop talking." Before Tao Lili finished speaking, Chen Yu suddenly stopped her and signaled her to stop talking.
Tao Lili thought that Chen Yu had something to hide, so she swallowed the words back and had to turn to Hu Xinyue and said: "Xinyue, just accept the birthday gift. Just like Chen Yu said, it is mine after all."
Thank you very much. As for my family’s problem, you don’t have to worry about it. There is already a kind person who is willing to help me.”
Good-hearted people? There are no kind-hearted people these days. The students present all expressed doubts in their hearts when they heard Tao Lili's words. Some even began to maliciously speculate whether Tao Lili had hooked up with some rich boss.
Hu Xinyue also felt that no one would be willing to help Tao Lili in vain. After receiving Tao Lili's gift, she said: "Okay, then I will accept your offer, but I hope you will be down-to-earth in the future. As long as you work hard, life will always be good."
It will be fine."
Hu Xinyue's words didn't sound wrong at first, but when you think about it carefully, they always made you feel uncomfortable. Tao Lili felt like she had eaten a fly, a little disgusting, but it was hard to say it out loud.
Then, Hu Xinyue said to everyone: "Okay, everyone is here now. You can ask the waiter to serve the food."
"Okay, I'll call the waiter." A male classmate immediately volunteered and ran to call the waiter.
As soon as the male classmate left, Feng Li suddenly stared at Chen Yu and said, "Wait a minute, Chen Yu, today is the birthday of our beautiful monitor, where is your gift? Even Tao Lili brought a gift, you won't leave empty-handed.
bring it on?"
Feng Li obviously saw that Chen Yu was empty-handed, so he asked. Everyone's attention was immediately attracted to him, and they all looked at Chen Yu. If Chen Yu really came empty-handed, it would be too embarrassing.
At this moment, seeing the uncomfortable looks in everyone's eyes, Chen Yu didn't feel anything, but Tao Lili's face turned red all of a sudden. What should I do? It seemed that she had embarrassed Chen Yu!
Just when Tao Lili was blaming herself and worrying, Chen Yu suddenly said calmly: "Although I came empty-handed, it's not that I don't have a gift. The gift will arrive soon."
"Will it arrive soon? Why is the big gift so mysterious?" Feng Li asked.
Chen Yu's tone remained calm: "It's not a big gift, it's just a thought. Everyone will know about it later."
"Oh! I said that Chen Yu must be doing well outside now, and he can play suspense. OK, OK, let's all look forward to Chen Yu's mysterious gift!" Feng Li deliberately held Chen Yu in his arms and said, because he knew
The higher you praise Chen Yu now, the harder Chen Yu will fall later!
Xu Jian and Tao Lili both understood the meaning of Feng Li's words. They obviously wanted to see Chen Yu's joke, so they were somewhat worried about Chen Yu.
But Chen Yu himself was not worried at all. He looked calm and unhurried, which made people more and more confused. Did he really prepare some big gift?
"It will be a while before the food is served. Anyway, I have nothing to do now. Why don't you, the squad leader, come and open the gifts first?" Ge Chao suddenly suggested when he saw this.
Ge Chao's suggestion immediately received a response from everyone, and everyone agreed to let Hu Xinyue open the gifts on the spot to pass the time.
Hu Xinyue did not refuse. She walked to the pile of gifts piled up in the corner of the box and gave everyone a standard and professional smile: "Thank you for your gifts. I will open them now and take a look."
After that, Hu Xinyue began to open the gifts. Tao Lili looked on, feeling suddenly very uncomfortable. These gifts must add up to a lot of money. To Hu Xinyue, the money is just some gifts, but to her it can save her life.
