I became financially independent right after entering college.

Chapter 71 Conflicts Begin to Appear
Quack!

How could I possibly like you? You’re just a little richer, a little more handsome, and can sing better. You’re so narcissistic!

Li Xue trotted all the way back to the dormitory. It was still military training time, and Jin Xiaozhou, Shan Meng, Chen Rongrong and others were not in the dormitory.

When passing by the sink, Li Xue subconsciously glanced at the dressing mirror. The person in the mirror had blushing cheeks and her heart was beating violently.

It must have been caused by running, right?

Anyway, Li Xue felt that her blushing face and beating heart were caused by running, and she was still breathing heavily.

More than two hours later, Jin Xiaozhou and his companions returned to the dormitory after the military training. Li Xue did not tell Jin Xiaozhou about Bai Chou's teasing of her in the afternoon.

Because she forgot.

"Why did it end so early today?" Chen Rongrong asked curiously. This was the first time in recent days that she saw Li Xue return to the dormitory before them.

"I've practiced everything I needed to. Today I just went to the Colosseum for a rehearsal, which was over quickly. This is called combining work and rest."

Li Xue put her hands on her hips, and her eyes couldn't help but light up when she talked about the Colosseum, with an expression that said, "Ask me something quickly, ask me something quickly."

"Oh, no wonder I saw that the Colosseum suddenly stopped people from entering. It seems you were rehearsing." Chen Rongrong pretended to be enlightened.

Li Xue's expression was easy to understand, at least Chen Rongrong understood Li Xue's expression and thoughts, but she just didn't want to ask, and didn't want to give Li Xue, the rich second generation, the opportunity to show off.

Chen Rongrong doesn't like her three roommates, Li Xue, Shan Meng, and Kim Hyo-joo.

Jin Xiaozhou, who also understood Li Xue's thoughts, asked with a smile: "How was the rehearsal at the Colosseum today? It should be pretty good."

"Hey, that's pretty good!"

Taking over the conversation from Kim Hyo-joo, Li Xue launched into a riot of words, boasting about heavenly voices, Jinling Taylor Swift, and impromptu performances that shocked Zhang Yimou...

As for the initial nervousness? There was no such thing, just a little bit of wind and frost.

Finally, Li Xue concluded with a smug look on her face: "Our show is pretty late in the evening, basically the finale. By the way, do you want to make a bet with me?
I was betting on how many people would send me flowers during the performance, and whether anyone would post me on the school forum or on the love wall after the performance."

"No gambling."

Kim Hyo-joo and Shan Meng shook their heads rationally.

"Maybe someone will say that you are a beauty that appears once in five thousand years." Chen Rongrong teased with a smile, her heart full of jealousy towards Li Xue.

"Hehe, once in five thousand years is too arrogant, one thousand years, one thousand years is just right." Li Xue couldn't stop smiling. She was both excited and distressed when she thought about becoming a campus goddess soon.

I hope that many people will follow me, but it would be better if there are not too many people like Zhou Haoyu who can’t read the air and bother me.

Damn you, all the good things are taken away by a brainless idiot like you, Chen Rongrong cursed in her heart.

Without even having to think, Chen Rongrong knew that Li Xue would definitely become popular in the school after the performance. Li Xue was so beautiful and she performed at the welcome party, so there was no reason why she wouldn't be popular.

As for being named "school belle", it is also normal. If the girl in Wuhan University who is far less pretty than Li Xue can become the "school belle of Wuhan University", then Li Xue can certainly become the "school belle" and become a campus goddess.

If you manage it well, you might become a big internet celebrity and make a lot of money.

Chen Rongrong felt that it was very unfair. Why did Li Xue, a brainless rich second-generation who had no worries about money, have such a good opportunity? How great would it be if she was the one performing the show with Bai Chou?
She can also become a campus goddess and a big internet celebrity. What, she is not as pretty as Li Xue, Kim Hyo Joo, and Shan Meng?
So what does it matter? The "school belle" is created through operation, not selected through beauty pageant. She just doesn't believe that there is no girl in Wuhan University who is prettier than the Wuhan University school belle.

Feeling jealous of Li Xue, Chen Rongrong secretly cursed Li Xue in her heart, hoping that she would make a fool of herself during tomorrow's performance.

"By the way, speaking of sending flowers."

Li Xue suddenly looked at Jin Xiaozhou: "Xiaozhou, do you want to send flowers to Bai Chou tomorrow? I estimate that there will be many girls sending flowers to him tomorrow, and there will be more in the future.

You must keep an eye on him."

Bai Chou's videos are still trending online. However, because Bai Chou was a freshman, few people knew him. Furthermore, he signed up for a program to hide from the public and rehearse in seclusion just two days after his military training. Overall, his popularity within the school is not very high. Most people at Southern Taiwan University are unaware that the internet sensation, the "KTV God of Songs," is actually a freshman from the class of 18.

But things will definitely be different after the performance. Previously, in Southern Culture, Bai Chou would most likely become popular again for a while.

"Of course I have to send flowers. How can I not send flowers to my boyfriend for his performance? And I have already told him in advance." Kim Hyo Joo nodded with a smile.

Chen Rongrong suddenly looked at Shan Meng: "Mengmeng, do you want to send me off?"

Ok?
Hearing Chen Rongrong's question, Shan Meng and Jin Xiaozhou were slightly stunned and looked at Chen Rongrong in confusion. Do you really not know or are you doing it on purpose?

After Kim Hyo Joo and Bai Chou's first date, Kim Hyo Joo and Shan Meng avoided the topic intentionally or unintentionally. Every time Bai Chou was mentioned, Shan Meng would pretend not to say a word.

"What are you looking at me for?"

Chen Rongrong looked innocent: "Mengmeng seems to be Bai Chou's high school classmate. Then Bai Chou is performing at the university for the first time, shouldn't Mengmeng give him a bouquet of flowers?
Maybe when they return home, we'll take the same bus, just like when they came here. We'll see each other every day, so it would be inappropriate not to even send them flowers."

"makes sense."

Jin Xiaozhou smiled unnaturally. She had never relaxed her vigilance towards Shan Meng. "How about I buy two bouquets of flowers tomorrow and give yours as well?"

"Need not."

Shan Meng thought for a moment and felt that it was not a good idea to deliberately avoid topics related to Bai Chou. It was as if she was still obsessed with Bai Chou and had lingering feelings for him. She shook her head calmly and said, "I can send it myself."

"Is your living expenses... enough?" Jin Xiaozhou asked subconsciously. She remembered that Shan Meng seemed to have broken off her relationship with Bai Chou because of the difference in their family's economic conditions.

Shan Meng's eyes suddenly flashed with disgust towards Jin Xiaozhou: "I'm not as poor as you think. My living expenses are 2,000 yuan a month. I can still afford a bouquet of flowers."

Shan Meng's family is not poor, although they are not rich either, just an ordinary family.

"That's fine too."

Kim Hyo Joo smiled unnaturally again, thinking that Shan Meng must have lingering feelings for Diao Chou. If not, why did she send flowers to him alone?

But in fact, even if Shan Meng made the opposite decision, Jin Xiaozhou would still not relax his guard against Shan Meng: If you didn't have lingering feelings, why did you deliberately avoid her?

Ultimately, it's because in Kim Hyo Joo's mind, Dan Meng is the most threatening. If you are a threat, then everything you do is wrong.

As for whether Shan Meng really still has feelings for Bai Chou, only she knows.

Noticing the obviously strange atmosphere between Kim Hyo Joo and Shan Meng, Chen Rongrong felt secretly happy. Seeing you guys unhappy, why should I be so happy?
