Chapter 103
Qin Xiang looked at Bei Nannan and said nothing for a while.
"I'm just curious..." Bei Nannan felt uncomfortable being looked at by Qin Xiang, with a bit of embarrassment on her face, "If you mind, I won't ask."
Qin Xiang shook her head, her expression calm, "It's nothing to mind, I'm just curious, didn't I tell you during the break just now, my parents are real farmers, from Lu Province, Lin City, do you still want me to go to which county or village specifically?"
Bei Nannan waved her hands, "That's not what I meant..."
"Well, I understand," Qin Xiang said with a strange look, "I also have a doubt, I need your answer."
Bei Nannan said, "You tell me."
Qin Xiang, "Is it important to you whether I am a farmer or a city dweller, whether my parents are farmers or cadres? I have always been curious about this?" Seeing that Bei Nannan's face was not good, she shook her head helplessly, "Now I have answered your doubts, "Are you satisfied?"
Qin Xiang said to Ding Xiang, "Let's go."
Zhao Wenna and Meilin followed closely. Bei Nannan bit her lip and pouted as she went to the cafeteria. After walking
for a while, Zhao Wenna asked Qin Xiang excitedly, "I found that you are actually very stubborn. You dare to be against Bei Nannan. I think she is very fierce."
Meilin rolled her eyes, "She is not fierce, but snobbish."
Qin Xiang smiled and said indifferently, "We are all classmates and live in the same dormitory. No one is more noble than anyone else. If she is curious, I will tell her."
She doesn't want to make enemies with others, but it doesn't mean that she is easy to bully and step on anyone. Bei Nannan is so powerful, so don't deal with her. It's just right to have some peace.
The four of them arrived at the cafeteria, and Bei Nannan followed them. She looked at Qin Xiang with some self-blame, "Qin Xiang, I didn't mean it."
Qin Xiang said indifferently, "It's okay, I came from the countryside and it's nothing, it's not something shameful."
She didn't mention the money for the breakfast, and Bei Nannan didn't mention it either. When eating, Qin Xiang ordered a braised pork dish because she consumed more in the morning, and ordered two other dishes, which made Bei Nannan look at her eagerly.
Qin Xiang certainly knew that she ordered a lot of dishes, but she was really hungry. She couldn't just follow others and order only Wo Wo Tou because of their feelings.
In fact, except for Bei Nannan who looked at her eagerly, the others didn't really care. Everyone's conditions were like that, and they bought whatever they could sell and didn't think there was anything to compare. Qin Xiang has good conditions, so it's better if she eats better.
But Bei Nannan's food is also normal. After eating, she muttered, "Qin Xiang, you don't look like someone from the countryside at all."
Qin Xiang was a little surprised, "What should someone from the countryside be like?"
Bei Nannan couldn't say.
Qin Xiang smiled and said nothing else. Bei Nannan didn't pay any attention to Qin Xiang until they arrived at the dormitory.
The military training for the whole morning was also very tiring. Qin Xiang was too lazy to care about what Bei Nannan was thinking. She only knew that good people are bullied.
Meilin fetched water in the morning, and Qin Xiang went to fetch water at noon. Meilin took the thermos to the water room to get hot water. The division of labor and cooperation saved a lot of trouble.
Ding Xiang and Zhao Wenna thought this was a good idea and joined in. Bei Nannan felt a little uncomfortable because no one wanted to join her. She went to see Guan Yuping, but Guan Yuping didn't want to join in at all. Bei Nannan had no choice.
The lunch break was not long because we had to gather at 2 pm, so everyone got up at 1 pm. After washing her face and going downstairs, Bei Nannan said to Qin Xiang, "Qin Xiang, how about we team up?"
Qin Xiang said regretfully, "But I'm already teamed up with Meilin, you can ask Guan Yuping."
"She doesn't agree." Bei Nannan looked a little unhappy, "Qin Xiang, I was the first to greet you when we came yesterday."
Qin Xiang laughed, "Yeah, but what does this have to do with the current situation? Everything has a first come first served, and it's not a big deal, at most I just have to run two more trips, don't you think so?"
Bei Nannan really wanted to say no, but she couldn't say anything to refute it. She did want to team up with someone, and she could find other people, but except Qin Xiang and Guan Yuping, she really looked down on the others in the dormitory.
In the afternoon, the military training continued, still standing in military posture, practicing standing at attention and at ease. Qin Xiang only regretted that she couldn't buy sunscreen at this time, so she could only go out in the sun without a face.
Moreover, their instructor He was also cruel. When others were resting, he would always delay them for a few minutes. Sometimes, even one person made a mistake and the whole class was punished. At the end of the day, everyone in their formation complained a lot and was full of complaints about instructor He.
Qin Xiang was in good health, but she was exhausted after such a day.
Moreover, after such a day in the sun, her face and neck were a little red. Her face even felt hot when she washed it. Meilin looked at her and smiled, "You see, my dark skin has its advantages. You can't tell even if I stay in the sun for a day."
Zhao Wenna was horrified and said, "I would rather get tanned now than stay dark forever. At least I can get my skin back in the winter if I get tanned now. Can your skin get whiter?"
Meilin chuckled, "I guess not. The sun is too strong all year round where we are, and there are not many people with fair skin."
"What about you?" Zhao Wenna said, wanting to look at her body. Meilin would never let her succeed, "I won't tell you."
The two of them started arguing. Bei Nannan looked upset and went out to wash up. Guan Yuping, who had been sitting there reading a book, suddenly got angry, "Can you be quiet?"
Meilin stuck out her tongue and dragged Zhao Wenna out.
Qin Xiang and Guan Yuping were the only ones left in the dormitory. Guan Yuping suddenly turned to look at Qin Xiang, "I thought you were different from them, but you are no different from them."
Qin Xiang was stunned, a little confused, "Why am I different from them? We are both women, how can we have a fork?"
"You know what I mean." Guan Yuping glared at her and turned back to read.
Qin Xiang said, "I'm sorry, I'm a layman, I can't be a plum blossom on a branch."
She could see that Guan Yuping had her own nobleness and arrogance, but she didn't need others to tell her what to do.
After that, she took out her own vanishing cream and applied it thickly on her face and neck. In addition to her face, her arms and legs exposed to the outside were also thickly coated with a layer of cream.
Without sunscreen, she could only protect herself after sun exposure. Forget about facial masks for now. These
vanishing creams are good. But the quantity is running out. I don’t know if I can go out on the weekend. I have to go out and buy some good facial creams. I will also see if there are any stores here with suitable prices. No matter whether I buy or rent, I have to have my own business.
And there is the courtyard house she has always dreamed of. No matter how small it is, she will definitely get one in the next few years.
Qin Xiang was smearing herself with paint happily, and Guan Yuping looked down on her even more. "Vulgar."
Qin Xiang smiled and ignored her. Perhaps in the eyes of a nerd like Guan Yuping, students should study hard and be devoted to their studies, and everything else is unorthodox.
But her original purpose of going to college was not to study academics, and if she really wanted to study academics, she should not study fashion design. Can you improve yourself just by studying hard?
I'm afraid not.
After Qin Xiang finished packing, the others came back one after another. Meilin went out for a while and came back with the latest gossip, "I heard that our instructor He is 27 years old this year and is already a deputy battalion commander."
Qin Xiang raised his head and glanced at her. He didn't expect that Meilin had some ability to find out things.
Meilin chuckled, "Let me tell you, let alone the freshmen this year, I heard that even the sophomores and juniors are asking about Instructor He. But our instructor looks so cold-blooded, they probably don't have any hope."
Meilin glanced at Qin Xiang and couldn't help laughing, "Some people actually use Qin Xiang as an analogy, saying that they would rather be the beauty punished during the day. If it were me, I would definitely play the role of a sick beauty, just to see if Instructor He really doesn't show sympathy for women."
Qin Xiang said hurriedly, "Don't involve me when you are joking."
Meilin came over and gossiped, " Aren't you tempted? To be honest, you are beautiful and have good temperament, and Instructor He is handsome, so they are a good match. "
Qin Xiang saw that she was talking endlessly, and immediately stretched out her hand and said, "Stop it, don't make fun of me, I will never have any love, and I will not get married or have children to ensure my safety."
Suddenly there was a bang, and Guan Yuping smashed the book on the table, "Are you done yet?"
Meilin stuck out her tongue and dared not speak, but Bei Nannan was a little angry because of the previous incident, and she said directly, "This dormitory is not your dormitory alone, and it's not time to turn off the lights yet. We can say whatever we want and it has nothing to do with you."
"Because you are talking about me..." Guan Yuping sat down again with a gloomy face, not knowing what she was thinking about. "Whatever you want."
Her inconsistent attitude made Qin Xiang unable to help but think too much. However, Bei Nannan felt that she had the upper hand and was very happy. "Some people are
just self-righteous." Guan Yuping ignored such words.
After a tiring day, no one was in the mood to quarrel, so they lay down to sleep early.
The next morning, military training continued. Meilin's bed was opposite Qin Xiang. When she saw Qin Xiang, she screamed, attracting others to look at her.
Meilin said a little embarrassedly, "Look at Qin Xiang, her face is not dark at all."
After a day of sun exposure yesterday, when the class was over, everyone's face, neck and arms were more or less red, and Qin Xiang's was no exception. But who would have thought that after just one night, the redness of others had turned black, but Qin Xiang's had returned to its original state?
Several other people also found it strange and gathered around Qin Xiang to see what was new. Ding Xiang smiled and said, "I saw Qin Xiang put on a lot of vanishing cream last night."
Zhao Wenna understood, "No wonder, vanishing cream is a good thing. When I was admitted to university, my mother gritted her teeth and gave me a bottle. I haven't been willing to use much until now." As she said that, she even approached the bed and smelled it, "Qin Xiang smells so good."
Qin Xiang was embarrassed, "I'm doing this to protect my skin."
Ding Xiang smiled, "There are many people who protect their skin, but not many like you."
The main reason is that the conditions are limited.
Qin Xiang smiled and got up to wash and go to the cafeteria to eat early.
However, because of yesterday's experience, everyone ate a little more breakfast than yesterday, fearing that they would not be able to endure the military training if they did not eat enough.
After all, the military training lasted for half a month, and the first two days were the most tiring. The first day was just standing at attention, and the time was not very long. When the second day increased the time, some people could not stand it and fainted from heat stroke.
Seeing someone fainted and was carried to the infirmary, Bei Nannan said to Qin Xiang, "What do you think about us pretending to faint and escaping the military training?"
Qin Xiang looked at her like a fool, "Do you think the school doctor can't see that you are pretending to faint? Do you think they can help you hide it?"
"That's right," Bei Nannan sighed, "If I had money, maybe I could bribe the school doctor with money, and maybe I wouldn't have to go to military training. Although the instructor is very handsome, he is also very cold."
Qin Xiang was speechless and consciously moved away from Bei Nannan. Just say it, why are you staring at her.
Don't think you are thinking about her money.
Bei Nannan seemed not to notice Qin Xiang's avoidance, so she came over and whispered, "Why don't you lend me some money?"
Qin Xiang looked at her with a smile, "Do you think I'm rich? I'm from the countryside, and my parents are farmers."
Bei Nannan was unhappy to see her refusal, and pouted, "But you look like you're rich."
Qin Xiang became even more unhappy after hearing her words, and sneered, "So I have to lend you money if I have money, and I lend it to you so that you can bribe the school doctor? If you fail and the school investigates, you can say that it was Qin Xiang who insisted on lending you the money, otherwise you would definitely not do that?"
"How can you think of me like that?" Bei Nannan was unhappy, "If you don't want to lend it to me, then don't lend it to me. Why do you say such hurtful words?"
Qin Xiang just looked at her and smiled, "Do you dare to say that you don't have such thoughts?"
"No. I won't lend it to you." Bei Nannan walked away angrily and went to look for other people.
At this time, the assembly whistle was blown, and Qin Xiang hurriedly got up to gather.
When the training was halfway through, around three o'clock, someone in front shouted, "Someone fainted."
Qin Xiang took a look and it turned out to be Bei Nannan.
Bei Nannan was carried to the school doctor, and many classmates were discussing this.
The development of the matter was very dramatic. Bei Nannan was carried to the school doctor, and suddenly he jumped up from the ground with a scream, and there was no sign of heat stroke at all.
Just like that, if everyone still couldn't see it, they would be really stupid.
Instructor He only glanced at them and said, "Since you are a group, if someone makes a mistake, the others should report it to the instructor immediately if they know about it. Otherwise, you will be punished together."
Qin Xiang didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that Instructor He glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally when he spoke. Could he be talking about her?
That was a big wish.
Bei Nannan wanted to borrow money from her, but she didn't. How could she know that Bei Nannan was so bold?
The whole team hated Bei Nannan for the instructor's decision.
After the training, students from other classes went to have dinner, but the two majors in their formation were still standing in military posture.
Qin Xiang could almost foresee that Bei Nannan would be targeted by others when she returned.
After an additional half-hour of punishment, the formation was disbanded.
Other students complained about Bei Nannan and were very dissatisfied. Bei Nannan was also frustrated and depressed, and didn't even eat dinner.
When they returned to the dormitory, many people stopped Bei Nannan and said, "Because of you, not only were we fined an extra half hour, but we also had to eat the leftovers from dinner. You are really amazing."
"Be careful, you made a mistake and everyone got punished together. Do you feel embarrassed?"
Several girls with bad tempers scolded Bei Nannan, who started crying. "I didn't mean it. I was just too tired."
After saying that, she covered her mouth and ran back to the dormitory.
Several girls looked at Qin Xiang and said, "It's unlucky for you to live in the same dormitory with such a person."
Qin Xiang couldn't say anything else. Instead, Ding Xiang defended Bei Nannan and said, "She didn't mean it either. I guess she won't dare to do it again after this time."
But the others didn't listen at all and ran to the dormitory door to scold Bei Nannan.
All the students who can study here are the best in their respective provinces, and they are naturally gifted in scolding people, which made Bei Nannan cry even more miserably.
Qin Xiang thought it was good, at least it taught her a lesson, so that she wouldn't think things through and think that others had to revolve around her.
Because of the previous experience, no one pretended to be unconscious on purpose, and because of the long time, everyone's communication became smoother.
Soon it was the weekend, and the school generously gave the freshmen a day off.
Most people didn't want to go out with this day off, and they wished they could be paralyzed in bed for a day.
However, Qin Xiang planned to go out, and after asking around and finding no one to go with her, she packed her things and carried her bag to go out.
Before she left, she heard someone knocking on the door. "Qin Xiang, someone is looking for you downstairs."
Qin Xiang looked out the window and was stunned.
Good guy, why are you so excited? How come these two are together so early in the morning?
