I found a cell phone from ten years ago.

Chapter 18 Changing Image
On the Mid-Autumn Festival on the 22nd, the school was closed for one day and there was no need to do morning exercises. Xu Haoyang and Shen Qiang could finally sleep in and stayed in bed until almost noon.

Li Xu also got up late. He stayed up all night last night to finish reading the book "I Really Didn't Want to Be a Warm Man After Rebirth". The moment he put down his phone, he felt lost.

He was deeply impressed by several heroines in the book, such as Xiao Qiao, Bai Wei, Wang Zhining... but his favorite was Chou Tzuyu.

Unfortunately, she was only the second female lead and was unable to compete with Xiao Qiao until the end.

If he could meet a girl as beautiful and kind-hearted as Xiao Zhou, he would definitely not be as greedy as Li Zhe. Just having her would be enough.

Li Xu sighed lightly, stepped onto the ladder and got out of bed, ready to wash up.

"Are you going to the Internet cafe to write novels again?" Shen Qiang poked his head out from the bed and teased with a smile.

Li Xu glanced at Shen Qiang but ignored him.

This guy was obviously making fun of him and treating his novel writing as a joke.

When you are an exception, you are often easily denied, suppressed, belittled and ridiculed.

"Brother Xu, wait for me, let's go together." Xu Haoyang sat up from the bed.

"You two go ahead, I'm not going to the Internet cafe." Li Xu said.

"So what are you going to do?"

"Go out for a walk."

Today is a holiday and the market is closed. I have accumulated a lot of manuscripts for "Mystery", so I don't need to write so hard.

Li Xu planned to relax for a day. He would first get a haircut as his hair was a bit long, and then go to the bookstore to buy some books on music theory.

In order to copy the three or four hundred songs in his mobile phone, he must at least know some music theory. Even if he can't compose music by listening to it, he must be able to read the musical notation.

Otherwise, it would be too suspicious if you can hum the melody and lyrics without understanding anything.

After washing up and changing his clothes, Li Xu left the dormitory.

After leaving the school from the north gate (main gate) and coming to the commercial street, Li Xu found a reasonably priced barber shop and asked the barber to give him a short, messy haircut.

He saw this hairstyle in a video and liked it.

After the haircut, he looked at himself in the mirror and felt that the effect was indeed good. He seemed to look a little more handsome.

After leaving the barber shop, Li Xu did not go directly to the bookstore to buy books, but walked to the nearby Ai Shang Street District, intending to buy some nicer clothes.

He didn't bring many clothes with him, just a few pieces, and the styles were rather old-fashioned. He also threw away a coat he often wore along with his black backpack.

The main places selling clothes in Xianlin University Town are Ai Shang, Dacheng, and Golden Eagle Shopping Center.

Golden Eagle Shopping Center is a high-end shopping mall that mainly sells various brand-name clothes at relatively high prices.

Ai Shang and Dacheng are affordable clothing markets, which are more suitable for students like Li Xu.

Ai Shang Block is an underground commercial block. It was originally positioned as Jiangning Fashion Lady. It has many small shops selling shoes, clothes, accessories, manicures, etc.

Because it is aimed at students, the prices of clothes and shoes are relatively low.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, Aishanli was bustling with people, most of whom were students who came to shop.

Li Xu shopped for a while and bought a white T-shirt, a pair of black straight trousers, a military green jacket, and a pair of black and white sneakers.

He has dark skin, so he would look better in clothes in colors like army green, light blue, khaki, and white.

This is also what he learned from watching videos.

In the past, he always liked to wear clothes in pure black, dark gray and dark blue, but the styles were not good, which made him look rather old-fashioned.

These clothes are not expensive, but the styles are pretty and fashionable. I spent less than four hundred yuan in total.

After changing into his new clothes, Li Xu walked out of Ai Shang carrying his old clothes, hailed a taxi on the roadside, and headed to Dacheng Famous Store.

Xianlin is an area with many universities and taxis, and is recognized as a gathering place for illegal taxis. Outside the gates of almost every university, there are illegal taxis waiting for passengers from morning to night.

Yingcai College is no exception. There are often five or six black cars parked on the roadside. When they see students coming out of the school gate, the drivers will lean against the car door and wave to attract passengers.

Li Xu never took a taxi before, simply because he was poor. A taxi ride cost him only seven or eight yuan, which was enough for one or two meals. Now, although he still has little money and even owes 1,500 yuan, at least he has a source of income.

He made another four or five hundred yuan by taking advantage of the fluctuation in gold prices in the past two days.

I can still afford to buy a few clothes and take a taxi.

If Li Xu were to take the green train again now, he would definitely not sit in a hard seat for more than ten hours just to save a hundred yuan. He would at least buy a sleeper ticket.

When he arrived at Dacheng, Li Xu bought a book called "Basics of Music Theory", a book called "Basic Music Theory", and a book called "Concise Music Theory Tutorial" from the bookshelf on the second floor.

If you study these three books thoroughly and understand the musical notation, you will definitely have no problem composing a simple song.

After buying the books, Li Xu went straight upstairs to Centennial Impression.

He hasn't updated his novel today!

……

At around 5 o'clock in the evening, Li Xu returned to school carrying clothes and a few books he had bought.

Only Xu Haoyang, Shen Qiang and Zhao Jiazi were in the dormitory.

In addition, there was a beautiful girl with a cool appearance and exquisite dress, sitting next to Zhao Jiazi, and the two were talking and laughing.

"Li Xu, are you... shopping for clothes?" When Shen Qiang saw Li Xu come in, he looked him up and down as if he had discovered a new continent, and said excitedly.

"Brother Xu, did you cut your hair? How come you suddenly become so handsome!" Xu Haoyang said with some surprise.

"Wasn't I handsome before?"

Li Xu made a joke, put his clothes and books on the desk, then pulled out a chair and sat down.

"Where are Guan Fu and He Weichen doing?"

"There is a Mid-Autumn Festival Gala tonight, and the two of them went to set up the venue." Xu Haoyang said.

At this time, the girl sitting next to Zhao Jiazi stood up and said to Zhao Jiazi, "I'll go back first."

Zhao Jiazi also stood up and said, "Let me take you there."

Then, the two left the dormitory one after another.

Xu Haoyang peeked out the door, and when he saw the two people walking away, he turned back to Li Xu and said, "How about it, isn't this girl pretty? She's from Ningyi (Jiangning Art College), and she seems to be Zhao Jiazi's girlfriend."

"How do you know? Zhao Jiazi told you." Li Xu glanced at him and asked casually.

"My guess is that the relationship between these two people seems unusual."

"No wonder Zhao Jiazi ignored a girl who approached him that day. It turns out his girlfriend is so beautiful." There was a hint of sourness in Shen Qiang's tone.

"That's right!" Xu Haoyang seemed to suddenly remember something.

"Brother Xu, a senior student just came over to try to sell me a credit card. He said all I have to do is fill out a form and make two copies of my ID and student ID. Do you want to apply for one?"

credit card?
Li Xu's heart moved.

"Students like us, can we do this even without income?"

"They said it can be done, but the amount is not high, at most three to five thousand."

"Brother Xu, do you want to do it? If you do, I'll do one too."

"Give me a form." Li Xu said without hesitation.

Not only that, he also wanted to find a way to get a few more.

　Thanks to Bingyu Congming for the reward!
