This novel only has one female lead, but it doesn’t have just one female supporting character, besides the original leading lady, there is Shen Ruchu as well.
The male lead’s sister, who, from the beginning to the end, is very much against the male and female leads being together, emphasizing on social equivalency and demanding that both parties’ family’s social, political status and economic condition be on par with each other, repeatedly obstructing their union.
However, humans are indeed such contradictory creatures. Shen Ruchu simultaneously detests this Cinderella story while like her brother, has been in vain pursuing an ordinary person for several years.
The details of side plots are not clearly explained in the text.
Yu Ting tiredly lay down again after reviewing the original storyline.
No matter how despicable the character is, it doesn’t concern her, she’s just an unremarkable female supporting character who wants to spend money.
Compared to her, Song Zhan was more serious.
Ding dong dong.
The class bell rang, and the counselor walked in from outside. He is a balding middle-aged man, about 1.7 meters tall. Looking every bit of a typical engineer stereotype with thick glasses and old-fashioned attire, because the weather had grown cold, he was wearing a brown vest. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
"Classmates, before we talk about safety education and anti-fraud, let’s talk about something else. It’s already the end of October, more than a month after school started. The sixty-seventh annual autumn sports event of our university is about to kick-off, everyone is welcome to sign up."
The counselor delved right into the topic, mentioning the sports event in just a few sentences.
"It’s a once in a year opportunity. It’s a great chance to make new friends; you all are sophomores right now. Once you reach the third year you’ll be busy preparing for postgraduate entrance exams and might not have time to participate. Those who have decided to join, contact your class sports representative and submit your forms to the university student union’s sports department before the 27th."
"The sports event schedule will be sent to your class group soon, please check on time."
"In our institute, we have far fewer female students, so it is mandatory for every class to have at least three female participants. Please keep this in mind."
...
The counselor went on to discuss other matters after briefing about the sports event. The class meeting ended after about an hour, and a large group of people headed towards the dormitory building.
Song Zhan first walked with Yu Ting and her group, but eventually separated at the intersection of the men’s and women’s dormitory buildings, leaving only Yu Ting and Ning Xuan.
They didn’t know the situation in other classes, but there are only four girls in their Computer Science third class.
Yu Ting, Ning Xuan, Lin Yan, and He Feiyan.
Last year there was one more girl, but she transferred to another major after the first term of the first year.
This added to the difficulties of an already financially strained family.
"Are you going to sign up for a lot again this year?" Ning Xuan asked Yu Ting.
Last year during the first year of college, there was also the autumn sports event. The original owner loved getting attention and signed up for several events at once, but when it was time to compete, she was afraid of being seen in an unattractive position and ran very slowly, ending each event last.
"I don’t know, if possible, I don’t want to sign up this year." After thinking for a bit, Yu Ting sighed and replied.
On one hand, there was the new company that just started up with lots to do and funds to manage, and on the other, she had been running a fever last night.
She didn’t have the time.
The two of them chatted on their way back to the dormitory. As soon as they unlocked their phones, they saw the class group was buzzing with chatter about the event, with 99+ new messages. Everyone in the group had also changed their nickname to their real names.
The top message was from the sports representative who had shared the sports event plan and tagged everyone asking who wanted to participate, after which the conversation turned towards the girls.
Lin Yan: I’ve not been well since I was little. I even had a fever once when I was very young, Feiyan knows about this too.
Accompanied by a crying cat emoji.
Lin Yan: There will be many people attending events like sports day. I don’t want to embarrass our faculty.
...
Lin Yan: I guess we’ll have to rely on Yu Ting. Although her performance last year was not very good, I believe she will do better this year than finishing thirteenth like last year.
She immediately started revealing Yu Ting’s embarrassing facts without any hesitation.
Yu Ting: So when are you going to repay the $1,438,072.15 you owe me?
