Xiang Bei had always felt her name was unlucky; she was truly cursed. She was walking on the street when she was hit by a car running a red light. To her surprise, she woke up to find herself trapp...
Chapter 6 Let's all stop talking about each other.
Lin Beibei quickly refused, but Gu Tingyun had already called Fang, the assistant, over to settle the tuition fee.
She followed Assistant Fang downstairs, while Gu Tingyun took Ning Yuxuan to another room.
He doesn't look well.
Ning Yuxuan looked somewhat uneasy, after all, her uncle's angry appearance was quite frightening.
Lin Beibei asked with some worry, "Won't Mr. Gu resort to violence?"
Assistant Fang also glanced at it, and he was also a little uncertain. After all, Miss Xuanxuan had gone so far as to prank the president, and the president was not a good-tempered person.
He quickly paid Lin Beibei's tuition and planned to go over to check on her. He thought President Gu probably wouldn't hit his own niece.
However, Assistant Fang dared not make a definitive statement. It would be better to go and see for himself. If he couldn't persuade them, he would find someone who could.
"Um, could you please make a clear note, and also specify any extra costs?" Lin Beibei reminded her.
"Miss Lin is really cautious."
"It's just my personal habit," Lin Beibei smiled.
Xiang Bei said that you should leave a trace of what you do, and Lin Beibei has experienced this firsthand today with Ning Yuxuan.
Seeing the transfer on her phone, she felt overjoyed.
I feel like we're getting closer and closer to paying for my mother's medical expenses.
Since her class hours are fixed, Lin Beibei found a part-time job working the evening shift at a coffee shop near the school, and she can start working tomorrow.
She only looked for daily-paid jobs.
Lin Beibei whispered to Xiang Bei, "Sister Xiang Bei, I'm so happy! I feel like I can find another part-time job so I can raise money for Mom's medical expenses soon."
Your health is the most important thing. If you collapse from exhaustion, there will be no one to take care of your mother.
"That's true." Mom still needs her to take care of her.
However, Lin Beibei still felt that life was full of hope.
When I opened the door, I saw Yu Jing in the dormitory wearing a camisole nightgown.
Yu Jing was on a video call, her clothes half-pulled down to her shoulders, revealing glimpses of her chest, when suddenly the dormitory door was pushed open, startling her.
When he realized it was Lin Beibei, he said a few words to the person on the other end of the video call before hanging up.
"Why didn't you knock before coming in?" she asked angrily.
"I'm also a member of the dormitory. Why do I need to knock on the door to go back to my own dormitory?" Lin Beibei looked at Yu Jing strangely.
"Have you been taking the wrong medicine lately?" Yu Jing looked Lin Beibei up and down.
I used to think Lin Beibei was unsociable because she always said she wouldn't go when everyone else went out to eat.
I later learned that she came from a poor family and worked part-time at a restaurant near the school.
As if struck by a sudden thought, Yu Jing laughed smugly, "Well done, Lin Beibei. I was wondering why you suddenly wanted to come with me to work as a waitress at that club. You hooked up with a sugar daddy in just one night. You're pretty amazing."
When she brought this up, Lin Beibei remembered what had happened before. "So you secretly took pictures of me?"
"You saw it?" Yu Jing asked, somewhat surprised.
When she returned from the club, she saw a young man open the car door for Lin Beibei and let her get into a luxury car.
The man was decent-looking, but Yu Jing was still jealous.
It's true that being pretty makes it easy to attract men.
"Yu Jing, don't overthink it. That's a part-time tutoring job I found. They're going to take me to tutor their child."
"Oh, really?"
Yu Jing didn't believe it.
Lin Beibei didn't explain further. "Yu Jing, I've recorded our entire conversation. If those photos leak from your phone and cause me to be the subject of negative comments, I will take legal action against you."
"You dare!"
“I did go there to be a tutor. If you dare to slander me, I will sue you.”
Looking at Lin Beibei, Yu Jing felt as if she had become a completely different person.
She did intend to post the photos of Lin Beibei getting into a luxury car, to let everyone see that the pure goddess who once dominated the campus walls was actually a wanton woman in private.
Unexpectedly, Lin Beibei recorded their conversation as soon as she entered the room.
When did she become so difficult to deal with?
As far as I can remember, Lin Beibei did nothing but work part-time and study; she never asked about anything else.
Yu Jing shifted her gaze and turned on the recording device on her phone. "Beibei, you said yourself that you were short of money and wanted to work at the club. I didn't force you to go."
"She's recording," Xiang Bei reminded her.
“My mother is sick, and the surgery will cost a lot of money, so I urgently need the money. You told me that the salary at the club is high, and that your designer bags and jewelry were all bought with money earned there.”
Yu Jing frowned slightly. "How did your work go yesterday?"
"It's not a good place. I'm not suited for that area, and I won't go back." We'll have to find another way to pay for my mother's surgery.
Fortunately, the situation isn't too bad right now, so we can try conservative treatment first.
Unable to get any information out of Lin Beibei, Yu Jing became somewhat irritated.
"You're the one who wants to go, and you're also the one who doesn't want to go. You've said everything." Yu Jing looked at Lin Beibei and chuckled.
"For me, it's just a job. I look for jobs, and if I find one that's not suitable, I don't do it. What's wrong with that? Does that mean the job is irregular, and I should report it to the relevant authorities for operating illegally?"
Lin Beibei read aloud the words in front of her, "If there is prostitution there, should I report it to the anti-prostitution squad?"
Yu Jing stared at Lin Beibei in shock for a long while, becoming even more convinced that Lin Beibei had taken the wrong medicine.
He simply picked up his phone and deleted the photos in front of Lin Beibei, asking, "Are you satisfied now?"
Lin Beibei looked at her, then at the line of text in front of her, "I'm not sure if you have a backup. What if you find it again?"
Yu Jing was so angry her hands were shaking. She frantically typed on her phone, "I've deleted them all. Are you satisfied now?"
"Thank you." Lin Beibei thanked her sincerely.
"Delete the recording," Yu Jing said through gritted teeth.
Lin Beibei agreed and then completely deleted the recording.
Yu Jing was so angry that her chest heaved. She suddenly wanted to move out too. She thought that if she lived with Lin Beibei, she would be driven crazy sooner or later.
But she wasn't a local. She used the money she earned working at the club to buy high-end things, so staying in the dormitory was the most cost-effective option.
She planned to hook up with a rich man before graduation, but the plan was simply not going to work. Those men only tried to take advantage of her, and when they said they wanted to marry her, they were all very perfunctory.
Yu Jing was unwilling to give up and stormed out of the house.
Lin Beibei sat in her chair and asked, "Sister Xiang Bei, why do I feel so excited?"
Based on her past experience, this is wrong.
My mom kept telling me to get along well with my classmates, and she even made some delicious food for me to bring over and share with my roommates.
But no one appreciated it; they even complained about what Mom made.
Your mother isn't wrong; she's just thinking too simply. Creating a tough-on persona can actually avoid a lot of trouble. Don't reveal too much about your family to others; just be vague. Saying too much is bad for interpersonal relationships. Keep it mysterious and let others guess.
Lin Beibei especially enjoyed chatting with Sister Xiang Bei. The problems she worried about didn't seem to be problems at all in Sister Xiang Bei's eyes.
Xiang Bei was mostly bragging. She was trapped in this godforsaken place and couldn't get out. Luckily, she had someone to chat with, otherwise she would have gone crazy.
As we chatted, we couldn't help but exaggerate.
Listening to Lin Beibei's admiration for her, Xiang Bei felt as if she were floating on air.
No, she really was floating in mid-air, and just as she looked up, she suddenly fell down and landed on her soft bed.
When Yu Jing returned, she saw Lin Beibei sitting in her seat, muttering to herself with a smile on her face.
She couldn't help but feel afraid.
I know Lin Beibei's mother is sick, but her family is not well-off to begin with. Could it be that Lin Beibei has been driven crazy by the medical expenses?
Wouldn't it be very dangerous for me to be in the same dormitory as her?
What if she suddenly decides she doesn't want to live anymore and takes me with her?
Yu Jing became more and more frightened. She should have known better than to provoke Lin Beibei. What if Lin Beibei held a grudge?
When he turned his head, he met Lin Beibei's gaze.
She even smiled at herself. How could she smile after such an unpleasant argument?
Countless cases of murdering roommates flashed through Yu Jing's mind; all she wanted to do right now was to calm Lin Beibei down.
She reached for her wallet, pulled out a card, gritted her teeth, and handed it over. "Hey Beibei, how much is Auntie's surgery fee again?"
"Why are you asking this?" Lin Beibei looked at Yu Jing strangely.
Little did she know that her questioning gaze terrified Yu Jing.
Yu Jing gritted her teeth and pushed the card to Lin Beibei, "This is a loan, no, a gift for you."
"Huh?" Lin Beibei looked at Yu Jing in surprise, as if she were looking at a mental patient. Why would she give her a bank card for no reason?
However, Sister Xiang Bei did not give her any hints, meaning Yu Jing did not record the conversation.
Lin Beibei thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "I know, you want me to take the money and then sue me for extortion, right?"
"No, no, no, I didn't, I didn't," Yu Jing hurriedly waved her hands.
She didn't, she really didn't.
But she couldn't say that Lin Beibei was sick, for fear that Lin Beibei would have a relapse and kill her, so she spent money to avoid disaster.
She helped Lin Beibei financially, so she should at least remember her kindness. She's still young and hasn't found a rich husband yet; she doesn't want to die.
Lin Beibei wouldn't have accepted Yu Jing's money for no reason.
"I don't want to."
Yu Jing felt that she was just holding a grudge, and the more she thought about it, the more panicked she became.
She had a lot of stuff, and after her two roommates moved out, her things were piled up at their place, filling it to the brim, and she couldn't move them away anytime soon.
Even though she's gone, her belongings can't be abandoned; otherwise, what's the point of her living?
But she was gone, and she couldn't take her belongings with her, which made her even more desperate.
Inside were also limited edition items that she had just bought by saving up for her own savings.
"Beibei, we're classmates, it's only right that we help each other out."
Yu Jing kept praying that Lin Beibei wouldn't go crazy; she hadn't even taken her limited edition bag out once yet.
The biggest sin she committed was pretending to be a rich girl in public, but those men spent money on her willingly; they also wanted her, this fake rich girl.
Let's all refrain from criticizing each other.
