“We didn’t say we weren’t going to buy it.” Lin Chuxia said with a frown, then turned to Fang Jiaxi and Shen Ziying, who were still standing there, and urged them, “You two go inside and change your clothes first, I’ll take care of things here.”
Fang Jiaxi went in without hesitation, but Shen Ziying remained outside.
“In early summer, I suddenly feel that this dress doesn’t look so good. Never mind, I don’t want it.” Shen Ziying made a move to hang the dress back up.
Just then, another voice came over: "Hehe, I know this trick. They clearly like it, but after trying it on and changing into the clothes, they find they can't afford it, and then they say the clothes aren't nice and they don't like the style. They just want to get something for free, really, and they say it so righteously!"
Shen Ziying got angry: "Zhang Nini! We're all from the same college, do you have to be so rude?! And who said I can't afford this dress? I'm going to buy it today!"
Her family gives her a fair amount of pocket money, and she also has her own small savings. She could easily afford to buy one or two luxury items, but she's usually reluctant to spend the money, which is why she doesn't buy them.
The girl named Zhang Nini then said, "I know you can afford it, but what about the two people next to you? Can they afford it too?"
"Hey, you poor wretch who came by subway, don't try to act all high and mighty!"
"Exactly, are some people just putting on an act, actually thinking they're some rich and beautiful woman?"
The girls started mocking each other, while He Yuhan stood at the back and watched silently, her fists clenching at her sides.
Only she knew that Lin Chuxia and the others probably could afford it.
She still remembered the black card she saw in Lin Chuxia's backpack at the beginning of the semester. She had thought the card was fake, but... the person behind Lin Chuxia was Master Gu, the richest man in the Flower Kingdom, so the card was very likely real.
Lin Chuxia, having roughly grasped the situation from their conversation, turned to Shen Ziying and asked, "Are they all from our academy?"
Shen Ziying nodded: "You don't usually stay at school much, so you probably haven't paid much attention to these things. The one in the middle is Feng Tiantian. She wanted to compete for the school beauty pageant, but you outshone her. That's when she started to dislike you."
"Huh?" Lin Chuxia felt a little confused. "But I've never run for school beauty."
Shen Ziying glared at her, annoyed: "Do you even need to run for office? You were already officially recognized by the school during military training. Even if you don't run, no one can beat you. After all, you're officially recognized, while Feng Tiantian and the others are just candidates nominated by non-governmental organizations."
However, Lin Chuxia still felt somewhat innocent. "It's not my fault. I was inexplicably trending on social media and got all the flak. I was really upset too. And, just because of this baseless accusation, isn't it a bit much for her to be so hostile towards me?"
That's because you stole someone else's sweetheart.
Lin Chuxia: ? ? !
"Our class monitor, Feng Tiantian, likes Du Yong, but I heard she was rejected when she confessed, apparently because of you," Shen Ziying said in a low voice.
Lin Chuxia: "..."
Is she an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire?
"Then what about He Yuhan? How did they get together?"
"I'm not too sure either. She's moved out of our dorm now. Apparently, there was an empty spot in Feng Tiantian's dorm, so she moved in."
