Chapter 300: Willing to sell even after cutting so much?
After Huang Xin hung up the phone, she felt much better. When she looked up, she met Lu Jiayi's face.
She was startled and said irritably, "Why are you staring at me like that? You're going to scare me to death!"
Lu Jiayi was very good-natured. She pointed to the tissues on the ground and said:
"Xiao Xin, I've already finished cleaning. The dorm still needs to be kept tidy."
The tissues scattered on the ground were left by Huang Xin while she was chatting with her parents.
"So annoying."
Huang Xin muttered to herself, but still bent down and picked up the tissues from the ground.
Shen Xuewei's dormitory head is Lu Jiayi, so on the first day of school, she was the one who cleaned the dormitory.
She had already arranged the sanitation duty roster when she returned from the meeting.
The first day was her, the second day was Shen Xuewei, the third day was Huang Xin, the fourth day was Su Shu, and so on.
Seeing that Huang Xin was a bit spoiled, but generally followed instructions, Lu Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief and praised her a few more times.
Huang Xin found her agreeable and even invited her to come to her home later.
This signified progress in their relationship, so Lu Jiayi happily agreed.
Actually, Lu Jiayi wanted to get along better with Su Shu than with Huang Xin.
However, Su Shu, though seemingly easy to talk to, is actually difficult to approach.
Her eyes seemed to know what she was going to do, to see right through her, so much so that Lu Jiayi would always look away insecurely when she met her gaze.
As for Shen Xuewei, Lu Jiayi judged that she was probably from out of town with some money, but her overall situation was not as good as Huang Xin's.
Although he maintained a good relationship with her, he didn't go so far as to expect her to fawn over him.
Shen Xuewei was unaware that on just the first day, Lu Jiayi had already mentally labeled her roommates.
She was lying in bed playing on her phone when she was soon overcome with sleepiness. After finding that her hair was completely dry, she put on her eye mask, pulled the covers over herself, and went to sleep.
The next morning, when Shen Xuewei got up, Lu Jiayi had already finished brushing her teeth and washing her face.
The other two in the dorm hadn't gotten up yet, and they nodded to each other as a greeting.
After brushing her teeth and washing her face, Shen Xuewei checked the time on her phone.
It's already 7:30, and the classes haven't even started yet.
However, new students need to complete registration today and participate in orientation programs in the next few days.
There is plenty of time; you can arrange your own schedule in the morning.
She casually called out, asking if they wanted to go have breakfast together.
Su Shu frowned, turned over and ignored her, while Huang Xin grabbed a handful of hair in frustration, threw out a sentence "I'm not going, I'm not eating, don't worry about me" and then continued to sleep soundly.
Shen Xuewei shrugged and ignored them.
She looked at Lu Jiayi, "Jiayi, do you want to go have breakfast together?"
Lu Jiayi shook her head, "No, you go first, I'll wait for Xiaoxin."
She was waiting for someone, but Shen Xuewei was too lazy to wait, so she went to the cafeteria to eat by herself.
She ordered a cup of soy milk and a basket of steamed buns. After eating in the cafeteria, she took her documents to the school gymnasium to complete her freshman registration.
When she arrived, it was already past eight o'clock, and the line for new student registration at the gymnasium was already long.
With "Registration successful" displayed on the welcome system, the new student registration process is now complete.
Shen Xuewei came out of the gymnasium, intending to go back to her dormitory to rest before attending the initial orientation in the afternoon.
But the thought of such a long distance made her turn and walk towards the school gate.
Forget it, I'd better buy a bicycle sooner rather than later.
Otherwise, walking back and forth in the school every day would be exhausting for her.
Shenbei University has three main gates. Shen Xuewei got off at the main gate on the day she arrived.
The main gate is one of the busiest and most well-equipped gates in the school.
In addition to the main gate, there is a west side gate and an old gate that is not frequently used.
She followed the signs in the school and walked towards the main gate.
Gong Lingling had previously told her that there were several bicycle shops a few hundred meters west of the school's main gate.
However, she had only taken a few steps when a senior student wearing glasses walked quickly towards her and said:
"Hey junior, you're a freshman, right? Do you want to buy a bicycle?"
"Don't worry, although they are second-hand, they are all good bicycles, no different from new ones. The lock is included with the purchase, and the price is at least half the price of other stores, saving you a lot of money."
"Buy first, choose first; you won't lose out. How about it, want one?"
Shen Xuewei stopped. "Senior, how did you know I was a freshman?"
The senior student sighed, "Those coming out of the gymnasium now are most likely freshmen. Freshmen will most likely need to buy a bicycle."
He gestured with his chin, indicating that Shen Xuewei should look at the person further away on the other side.
"See? His eyesight isn't as good as mine. He stood so far back, observing for so long. How could he possibly steal my business?"
"Junior, you're beautiful and kind-hearted, how about buying one?"
Shen Xuewei was going to buy it anyway, so there was no difference between buying it at school and buying it outside of school.
It's just a matter of new versus used; as long as it works, she doesn't see much difference.
"How much is it? Can I take a look first?"
Another deal is about to be finalized, and the senior student is grinning from ear to ear.
"Sure, why not? As for the price, different bicycles have different prices. After you've looked around, we'll talk about the price once you see one you like. Come on, junior, come this way..."
Shen Xuewei followed him to the place and saw rows of bicycles parked in front of her.
"Senior, did you collect all these bicycles?"
The senior student quickly waved his hand, "Hey, junior, you think too highly of me. I don't have the money to accept so much."
He led Shen Xuewei toward the bicycles in the corner.
"Here, these are all. There are about a dozen left. These are the ones I've collected. Take a look and see which one you want. I'll definitely give you a good price."
Shen Xuewei walked forward, glanced at the dozen or so bicycles, and her gaze settled on a brown bicycle that looked both antique and elegant.
"How much is this one?"
After boasting for a while, the senior asked Shen Xuewei for 800 yuan.
Upon hearing the price, Shen Xuewei turned and left.
She could buy a new bicycle for 800 yuan, so why would she buy a used one?
"Hey, hey, junior, don't go! The price is negotiable, you can bargain!"
The senior student was surprised that this seemingly gentle and thin-skinned junior student would turn around and leave without even trying to bargain.
Shen Xuewei didn't stop walking and casually threw out a price: "Three hundred."
In her eyes, the car was worth at most three hundred, not a penny more.
After being cut from 800 to 300, the senior student excitedly waved his hand.
"Sell!"
Shen Xuewei glanced sideways. "You're willing to sell even at such a high price?"
Could it be that this bicycle came from an illegitimate source?
