Chapter 150 Lack of Money
"...Excuse me."
Jiang Jiu closed his eyes and didn't want to have any contact with them anymore. Thinking about that period now, it was so dark that he couldn't see the way forward.
Although there is no direct bullying in school, verbal ridicule, indifference and isolation have become commonplace.
She is silent every day, and maybe without the teacher, she can go a week without speaking.
"What's wrong? It seems like you're not having a good time after transferring."
The sound of ridicule rang out among a group of students, so harsh and distorted that it looked like a monster in Jiang Jiu's eyes.
She took a deep breath and repeated it again.
"I said I borrowed it."
Jiang Jiu didn't want to talk to this group of bad people. They were obviously from rich families, but their character was rotten to the core.
Although they come from well-off families, they seem to be no different from those gangsters.
They are all a bunch of scum in nature, but they are just covered with a more glamorous skin.
Jiang Jiu's words sounded like a huge joke to the group of people. They started to laugh softly, then burst into laughter, echoing throughout the corridor.
The veins on her forehead were throbbing, and she could hardly control the urge to curse.
But Jiang Jiu didn't want to cause trouble here. Today was a good day for scoring. After thinking about it, he didn't say anything and just stared at them quietly.
After a while, they probably laughed enough, and a group of them crossed their arms, looked Jiang Jiu up and down with contemptuous expressions, and spoke with disdain.
"How many marks did our classmates get in the exam to transfer to a place like this? How dare they be so arrogant to us?"
Students in good schools are proud of their grades. In their eyes, Jiang Jiu has become no different from a gangster. They say this just to ridicule her.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jiu curled the corners of his mouth and spoke to them in a calm tone.
"Being taller than you is enough."
Jiang Jiu might not say this if it were someone else, but these were people she had been in the same class with, so she was very familiar with their abilities. They were just average students.
Maybe she wasn't as tall as them at that time, but now...
I don’t know if they were angered by Jiang Jiu’s calm attitude, or for some other reason, but several people had distorted expressions on their faces and spoke in a vicious tone.
"A worthless loser thinks he did better than us in the exam?"
As he finished speaking, the air fell into silence.
Jiang Jiu originally didn't want to pay attention to them, but these words directly touched her sore spot, and her face suddenly changed.
She clenched her fists tightly, and even wanted to rush up and punch everyone.
The other few people seemed to remember something and started laughing wildly.
"Oh! I remember now! You shameless poor student, I almost forgot why you transferred schools. Hahahaha, too tragic, absolutely too tragic."
"I heard your mother worked several jobs to send you to our school. You said you put in so much effort, but in the end it was all for nothing. Tsk tsk tsk."
"Isn't it fitting that you pay the price for pursuing something that doesn't belong to you?"
Voices surrounded Jiang Jiu's ears, becoming louder and louder, filling his mind, and blood filled his eyes.
She actually felt murderous intent in her heart.
"Oh~ Speaking of which, why are you here? Are you being kept by someone?"
"That's right, it's not impossible. After all, if you can't go to college, you can't find a job. It's better to be kept as a mistress to make money faster. This is what happens to children from poor families."
Sarcasm rises and falls, and is amplified infinitely in the world of ginger wine.
Rumors were like evil spirits that entangled her body and dragged her into the abyss.
Just when Jiang Jiu was deeply immersed in his emotions, he suddenly felt his body being pulled, and his vision went black.
Her mind seemed to be soaked in a breeze, and she woke up instantly.
The bloody impulse just now also disappeared before his eyes.
Until Yu Zimo's soothing and gentle voice came from above his head.
"Don't listen, don't look, they're not worth it."
Jiang Jiu was stunned as she felt the big hand gently soothing the back of her head. She lay in Yu Zimo's arms and let out a soft "hmm".
Jiang Jiu couldn't see what was happening behind her, so she naturally thought that life was peaceful. Little did she know that the classmates who had been mocking her were already lying on the ground, their lives unknown.
Long Xuan stood beside them, cracking his joints and making a creaking sound, his face looking extremely ugly.
He didn't expect that just asking Jiujiu out for dinner would lead to such a thing.
Yu Zimo and Long Xuan exchanged glances and took the ginger wine back to the box.
It was not until he sat on the chair and looked at the table full of expensive dishes that Jiang Jiu woke up from his dream and almost jumped out of his seat.
I was so angry just now that I forgot to pay attention to their order. It's such a big table...
How much does this cost?
Jiang Jiu wanted to cry but had no tears. The unhappiness she felt from being humiliated just now was far less important than the money. Now she just wanted to turn her eyes away so that she wouldn't have to pay.
You can't give up money for the sake of dignity...
Jiang Jiu was in a state of despair and kept muttering to himself, but he didn't show it on his face.
Women are always concerned about their reputation and will never lose face.
"They are all the ones you liked before."
Yu Zimo sat opposite, looking at the seafood and wild delicacies on the table with a flash of regret in his eyes.
These are easy to get in the world of cultivation, and the quality is much better than these.
In the past, Jiang Jiu liked to eat it and they could get it easily. Now that we can’t go back to that world, we can only make do with it for now and try to see if we can get it for Xiao Jiuer later.
But it doesn’t matter even if I can never go back, as long as I can be with Xiaojiuer.
Jiang Jiu didn't know what they were thinking. When he heard Yu Zimo's words, the corners of his mouth twitched noticeably.
Actually, what he said was right. She really liked to eat these.
But she's not from a wealthy family, so she can't afford it...
Jiang Jiu thought with tears in his eyes while reaching his chopsticks towards the dish.
It's not that she says one thing and does another, but it would be a waste not to eat it, as the money has been spent.
The two men felt a little better when they saw that Jiang Jiu was enjoying his meal.
After all, no one could be happy immediately after being disturbed by a group of little brats.
The faces of those brats flashed through Long Xuan's mind, and he had some plans in mind.
He just knocked them out so as not to disturb Jiang Jiu's meal.
But this doesn't mean that he won't retaliate, it's just that the time will be slightly delayed.
Even if we cause them trouble in bits and pieces, it won't involve Jiang Jiu.
Having learned from the last lesson, Xiao Nianzhong attacked Jiujiu's classmates at will and even gave Jiujiu the nickname of a witch.
It is said that wine can do witchcraft.
Then he must avoid the minefield this time.
I ate the whole meal with ginger wine and was in tears. I have to admit that it was really delicious, but it all cost money.
My heart is broken.
