Chapter 142: The Angry Roommate and the Cowardly Girl
Yang Linlin went out for a while and came back.
As soon as I reached the dormitory door, I heard laughter and chatter from inside, with Wang Minmin's voice being the loudest.
The anger in her heart began to boil over, and she pushed the door open and stepped in.
The old iron door made a creaking sound, turned around and hit Zhang Lihong, who was closest to her. The iron door weighing dozens of kilograms hit her on the back.
Zhang Lihong's face turned pale instantly and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Yang Linlin pretended not to see it and walked towards her seat without looking around.
"Apologize."
Seeing her walking away as if nothing had happened, Xu Xiaoyue stepped forward to stop her from passing.
"Apologize, apologize to whom?"
Yang Linlin frowned, staring at the girl who was a head shorter than her, with an openly sarcastic tone.
"Zhang Lihong didn't say anything, who do you think you are to stand up for others?"
"You don't think that just because you gave me two bottles of snow cream, I'm the boss of this group? Why don't you ask Zhang Lihong if she wants me to apologize to her?"
When she said the last sentence, Yang Linlin's eyes darkened, and she turned her head to look directly at Zhang Lihong, the person who was bending over because of excessive pain.
"No, no, that's okay. It's nothing serious. I was standing too close without noticing. It has nothing to do with you."
Zhang Lihong shook her head, her face even paler than before. After explaining, she apologized to Yang Linlin in a sincere tone.
Wang Minmin on the side shrugged and pulled Xu Xiaoyue's sleeve.
Seeing this, Xu Xiaoyue was silent for a moment and didn't say anything else.
She finally understood why Yang Linlin had such a bad temper. It turned out that it was Zhang Lihong, the soft-hearted girl, who supported her.
Xu Xiaoyue let out a breath slowly. Since Zhang Lihong could bear it, she was too lazy to be the first to speak out.
This time, Yang Linlin went back to the dormitory and rummaged through the drawers to get a book. She then drew her eyebrows in front of the mirror and even sorted out her clothes again and again, fearing that she had done something wrong.
The only loud noise in the entire dormitory was that coming from Yang Linlin. Even when Zhang Lihong was hit by the door, she was obviously in pain, but she just sat on the edge of the bed and breathed in and out quietly to relieve the pain.
Wang Minmin glanced at Yang Linlin, pursed her lips, and took the lead in breaking the atmosphere and said, "Linlin, are you going to the library to review?"
Yang Linlin said "hmm" and put on lipstick in front of the mirror.
That lipstick was an imported product that she had specially asked someone to bring back for her using her pocket money she had saved for two months.
Yang Linlin's skin is not white, it's even a little dark, and the bright red color applied on her lips has a shocking effect that is inconsistent with her age.
"You're going to the library dressed like this. Is Senior Lu Zhao here too?"
Wang Minmin joked. Yang Linlin paused while applying lipstick. She turned around and pretended to be angry and said, "What are you talking about? I am doing this for the monthly exam the day after tomorrow."
"It's because of the monthly exam. I can't concentrate on studying in the dormitory, so I have to go to the library. It has nothing to do with others."
After saying that, she seemed to be afraid that Wang Minmin would tease her again, so she hurried away with her schoolbag.
After everyone left, Xu Xiaoyue spoke up, "What do you mean by the monthly exam you just mentioned?"
"Oh, the monthly exam is also called the entrance exam. The school will reallocate classes based on the students' scores in the monthly exam."
"In other words, the better your test scores, the better your class assignment will be, but your dormitory will remain the same."
"Lihong and Linlin are in the same class."
Xu Xiaoyue nodded. When she went to report, the principal also told her that she was in Class 1.
Unexpectedly, getting into the class was not the final result. There would be screening and assignment through exams later. Xu Xiaoyue thought about it, raised her head and unexpectedly met Zhang Lihong's gaze opposite her.
She pursed her lips, and before she could say anything, Zhang Lihong hurriedly looked away.
Wang Minmin also noticed this scene, pretending to move closer to Xu Xiaoyue, and whispered: "Don't worry about her affairs."
When she was first assigned to this dormitory, Yang Linlin was the first to bully her. Although Wang Minmin looked lively and enthusiastic and smiled at everyone, she was not the type to submit to others.
Gradually, Yang Linlin probably felt that she was not easy to bully, so she turned around and started bullying Zhang Lihong.
Wang Minmin also tried to stand up for the other party, but Zhang Lihong was like a softie.
Sometimes when things got too urgent, she would stand up and apologize to Yang Linlin first.
Over time, Wang Minmin got used to her behavior and no longer competed to stand up for her like before.
Xu Xiaoyue nodded, stood up and quietly spread the mosquito net that Yan Ye bought for her before he left.
Lying on the bed, she pursed her lips, with a look of grievance in her eyes. This accommodation was completely different from what she had imagined!
On the first day she moved in, she encountered such complicated interpersonal relationships. Her roommate was so irritable and seemed to have bipolar disorder, and she was so cowardly. It was really a two-way fight.
Xu Xiaoyue sighed quietly, and could only comfort herself that she had already found a place to stay, and no matter what happened she had to hold on for a month before leaving!
Zhang Lihong opposite was lying on the bed with her eyes open, looking at the snowflake frost in her hand.
She knew that this thing was expensive and a good thing.
When I went to the town market with her mother, I saw someone buying it.
Just this small jar is enough for her living expenses for half a month.
I haven’t seen anyone using it in the countryside before, but when I came here to study, many female comrades in my class are using it. They said that in winter, they would scoop a little bit to wipe their faces, and their faces would be fragrant and moist all night long.
There is no girl who doesn't love beauty. Zhang Lihong has thought about buying a can several times. Even if she couldn't bear to use it, she had to buy it and have a look. However, she had saved up the living expenses her mother sent her for half a year, but she was reluctant to buy a can of snow cream.
The thing I had been thinking about day and night for so long was finally obtained so easily.
Zhang Lihong touched her heart and felt that she was not as excited as she had imagined. Instead, she had a strange feeling in her heart.
Since coming to the capital to study, Zhang Lihong feels like she has changed.
On the one hand, I felt that the capital was developing very well. Those real military children all wore imported clothes, and even the meals they got in the canteen were meat.
But she could only survive on the meager food coupons sent by her family.
Why couldn't she be the child of a cadre born in the capital? Compared with people like Yang Linlin, she would be no worse at all.
But because of her family background, she is inferior to others in every way.
Zhang Lihong stroked the snowflake frost in her hand, sniffing the fragrance inside, but her eyes became more and more cold and piercing.
