Chapter 34 ?End of the World
Translated by Twelve_Months_of_MayI just wanted to talk.
Most of the things in the box that Gu Mingxi left for Pang Qian were old.
Pang Qian sat on the floor, next to the cardboard box, pulling the items out one by one. There were a lot of comics in it. Complete sets too. About 80 percent were new, and they were all series that Pang Qian liked in junior high. At the time, she didn’t have the money to buy them. But Gu Mingxi bought them, and said that if she wanted to read them, she could just go over to his house. Now that he moved away, he just gave all the comics to her.
There was also a portable CD player, a Panasonic brand one. Pang Qian knew it was very expensive. Li Han spent almost 2000 dollars (300 USD) when she bought it. Pang Qian knew why Gu Mingxi gave her this CD player. It’s because, ever since they bought the CD player, Pang Qian was the one who used it the most.
Along with the CD player, there were also more than ten CDs of popular music. They were also the singers that Pang Qian liked. She recalled the times she went to the video store with Gu Mingxi. She would always pick up a CD and say, “Gu Mingxi, the title track on this sounds really good! I heard it a lot on the radio.”
Gu Mingxi would reply, “Really? Then I’ll buy it to check it out.”
With thick skin, Pang Qian would say, “When you’re done, you can let me borrow it.”
And Gu Mingxi would shake his head, “Not lending it.”
“You’re so petty!”
In the end, of course he wasn’t petty.
And in the very end, all the singers and CDs Pang Qian liked, he had left them all for her.
Aside from that, there were also some small trinkets and loose things. They were all things Pang Qian had played with. When she was over at Gu Mingxi’s, she would casually mention, “It’s so cute,” or “This is really interesting, let me borrow it.” There was a charming little hour glass, a crystal apple, an anime scale figure, and a thick sketchbook.
The sketchbook was filled with Pang Qian’s favorite cartoon characters. She never knew about it, but it seemed like before Gu Mingxi drew her copies for her, he had to make sketches first. And this book was filled with those sketches.
“Really treating me as a trash bin.” Although that’s what Pang Qian said, she felt a lump in her throat. She pulled out the final item inside the box. It was a beautifully packaged box. She opened it up, and saw a ping pong paddle.
“At least there’s one new thing.” Pang Qian pulled the paddle out of the box, then waved it around a few times. The corners of her lips sprang up.
When the ping pong team was practicing, Xie Yi saw the paddle in her hand.
“Wow, when did you buy this?” Xie Yi pulled the paddle from her hands to examine it carefully. He even bounced a ball on in a few times. The original paddle was wood-colored, but there was red rubber over it.
Pang Qian didn’t understand his meaning, so she just answered, “Someone gifted it to me.”
Xie Yi said, “This paddle costs several hundred, but it’s pretty good for beginners.”
Pang Qian, whose monthly allowance was only 60 dollars, had a fright, “S-several hundred?!”
“Yeah, probably about 800. Maybe even a thousand.” Xie Yi pointed out the logo on the paddle for her to see. “Stiga, it’s a Swedish brand. It’s a bit more expensive, but it’s really good to use.”
