Chapter 280 - 280 The First Conflict

280 The First Conflict

Even at night, there were still people arriving at school one after another. The two of them shuttled through the crowd. The enthusiastic Lin Xiao did not make Shan Yue feel uncomfortable at all. The two of them chatted very well, but most of them were academic topics.

However, even a friendly conversation between the two sides was sinful in the eyes of some people.

At this moment, there were two girls standing behind Lin Xiao. One of them was Xu Lu, who was famous for her beauty in the Capital University. At the same time, she was Lin Xiao’s number one suitor. Just because someone from her family worked at the Capital University, she was very rude and unreasonable in school.

A voice came from behind Xu Lu. “The person beside Lin Xiao seems to be called Shan Yue. I heard of her during the summer break. She seems to be from a poor district in S City, but she got in with full marks for the college entrance examination.”

“It doesn’t matter how many points she scored in the college entrance examination. It’s useless even if she scored a thousand points. When she reaches school, she has to abide by the rules.” Xu Lu’s eyes gradually became fierce as she stared at Shan Yue. “A country girl from a poor village, so what if she relied on her hard work to get into the Capital University? She still wants to cling to a high branch? She’s really a toad lusting after swan meat. Country bumpkins will always be country bumpkins. No matter how deliberately they package it, the bad habits engraved in their bones can’t be changed.”

If not for Lin Xiao’s presence, with Xu Lu’s personality, she would have long gone up and attacked Shan Yue. However, in order not to ruin her image in front of Lin Xiao, the angry Xu Lu restrained her temper and left after cursing softly.

Before she left, she did not forget to instruct her sidekicks, “In the future, tell your classmates to keep an eye on her. If she does anything drastic, you must stop her immediately. There’s no need to give her any face. If anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.”

Lin Xiao, who was still unaware of what was happening behind him, sent Shan Yue downstairs before leaving. On the way back to the boys’ dormitory, the image of walking with Shan Yue kept appearing in Lin Xiao’s mind. Even his heart beat faster, as if a calm spring water was rippling.

As soon as she entered the dormitory, Shan Yue realized that the dormitory, which should have had two people, had now become three. On her way to the principal’s office, Tang Hui happened to brush past Yu Xin and Lin Miao.

With her intuition, Shan Yue quickly realized that there was a faint smell of gunpowder in the room.

Looking at the slightly cold atmosphere in front of her, Shan Yue slowly said to ease the awkwardness, “What’s wrong? We’re all in the same dormitory. Don’t have any conflicts on the first day of school.”

Lin Miao quickly came out to smooth things over. “That’s right. It’s just a small matter. Don’t quarrel anymore. It’s good that everyone is harmonious.”

“You still have the cheek to say such things?” Tang Hui’s face was obviously filled with resentment. She turned to face Shan Yue. “I bumped into them when I was going upstairs with the two of them. I was holding a box in one hand and a bag in the other. They clearly saw me, but they didn’t help me. They just let me work myself to death alone.”

“How did we know that we were in the same dormitory as you?” Yu Xin didn’t spoil her and retorted directly, “We didn’t know that you were Tang Hui until you walked to the door of the dormitory. Didn’t we quickly go up to help you? If we had known your identity long ago, we would have helped you when we met.”

The more Tang Hui spoke, the more anxious she became. The anger on her head was gradually rising. “I’ve already moved my luggage up. What’s the use of helping me? You only remember to work hard after I’ve finished my work. Can’t you help me carry my things if we aren’t in the same dormitory? Aren’t we all classmates from the same school? Why don’t you have any self-awareness?”

“You’re self-aware. Since you’re so self-aware, why do you want us to help you with your own matters? We’re helping you on account that we’re all in the same dormitory. It’s our duty not to help you.”

Shan Yue saw through Tang Hui’s domineering personality at a glance, and a smile appeared on her lips.
