Chapter 533: Dorm Disagreements Right at the Start

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

With enthusiastic girls like Zhou Xiaoxiao in the dorm, there was no worry about awkward silences. Zhou Xiaoxiao warmly started to share her feelings about her first day at university.

“Wen Xin… that name sounds familiar. I heard this year’s top scorer in the college entrance exam is also surnamed Wen, but he’s a guy. Do you know him? He’s from Beijing. Are you?”

Su Shan looked at Wen Xin with a somewhat unfriendly gaze. Having grown up in Beijing herself, she was certain she would know if there was such a beautiful girl in her city.

“I’m not from Beijing; I come from Luocheng’s Ancient Market Town.”

Wen Xin did not directly answer Su Shan’s query, merely responding politely before turning around, sitting down, and taking out her laptop from her suitcase.

Su Shan, eyeing Wen Xin’s somewhat old laptop, couldn’t help but twitch her mouth. It confirmed to her that Wen Xin was from a small place; the poor condition of her computer seemed to indicate her family was not well-off.

Not wanting to befriend someone she perceived as poor, Su Shan turned and walked to her bed, “Let’s disperse, everyone. Do whatever you need to do and secure your valuables to avoid unnecessary disputes.”

Hearing Su Shan’s derisive tone, Diwu Qixian felt a surge of anger she could barely suppress. She instantly realized who Su Shan was targeting.

“Hey…”

Diwu Qixian had a good impression of Wen Xin and her first reaction was to confront Su Shan directly. Considering her Diwu family background, the Su family was likely not a match for her own.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the dorm was off, Zhou Xiaoxiao quickly walked over to Diwu Qixian, grasping her wrist, “Qixian, let’s go downstairs and get some hot water…”

Diwu Qixian glanced at Su Shan, who was lounging on her bed, and then at Wen Xin, who seemed indifferent and reading a thesis on her computer. She suddenly felt more protective of Wen Xin.

She walked over to Wen Xin, picked up her thermos, and said softly, “We’ll go get water and bring some back for you.”

“Thank you…” Wen Xin looked up from her computer, giving Diwu Qixian an extra glance, her voice gentle in appreciation.

“Don’t mention it. From now on, I’ve got your back. I refuse to believe anyone would dare to bully you.”

The school term had just began, and the dorm was already showing signs of fragmentation. Zhou Xiaoxiao rubbed her temples, which were beginning to ache, glanced at Su Shan lying on the bed, and sighed softly, feeling too insignificant to speak up.

Diwu Qixian, carrying two water bottles, left the dorm with Zhou Xiaoxiao, leaving only Su Shan and Wen Xin inside. Wen Xin continued to browse research on her computer, while Su Shan seemed less composed than before.

“I’ll tell you in advance, my things are quite expensive, not something someone from a small mountain village can afford. I advise you to keep away from my belongings.”

Su Shan, seeing Wen Xin’s unbranded clothes, assumed she was extremely poor; her clothes must have been sewn by a local tailor, hence the lack of any designer labels.

Wen Xin, not one to fuss, wasn’t actually as passive as she appeared; she simply didn’t consider Su Shan’s petty matters worth her attention. Her gaze remained on the computer screen as she leaned back in her chair, her voice calm.

“If you’re unwilling to stay in this dorm, I can contact the department for you, and you can go back to your biology department.”

Wen Xin couldn’t understand why a biology student like Su Shan had ended up in a physics dorm, but she was more than willing to send her back if she continued to cause trouble.

“You… how do you know… how do you know I’m from the biology department? Are you investigating me?” Su Shan sat up abruptly from her bed, shocked that Wen Xin knew this fact.

She didn’t want to study in the biology department; she wanted to enter the physics research institute, so her family was trying to transfer her major, but Wen Xin had discovered this before it was finalized.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You don’t need to worry about how I know. If you want to transfer majors, keep it low-key. Otherwise, you won’t be able to stay in the physics department, let alone the biology department.”

Wen Xin sent her thesis paper to a professional SCI journal email, closed her laptop, and turned a cool and distant gaze on Su Shan, walking to the balcony with her phone in hand.

Su Shan, who had never been slighted like this, watched angrily as Wen Xin stood on the balcony. She was so upset that she crushed the packet of instant noodles that she was holding.

She swiftly jumped off her bed, grabbed her designer bag from the table, and stormed out of the dorm, slamming the door behind her.

Hearing the loud door slam, Chu Yunxuan raised an eyebrow at Wen Xin on video, “What’s up? Seems like your first day at school isn’t going too smoothly?”

“Yeah, apparently my family is too poor for the rich girl’s taste. Can you check out the Su family’s background for me? It’s a bit inconvenient to do it from school; the internet here is too slow.”

Wen Xin leaned against the window, watching some boys play basketball downstairs, and turned the camera for Chu Yunxuan to see, joking, “Look at all that testosterone…”

Chu Yunxuan watched the scene on her phone and scoffed, “Compared to my idol, they’re nothing.”

“Oh, by the way, have you heard about the West Suburb racetrack? I heard that except for Gan Meng, everyone there was taken down, and they even had to close for restructuring. You wouldn’t know who did it, would you?”

Chu Yunxuan looked eager for gossip as Wen Xin just lazily smiled, knowing all along it was her man’s doing since she was captured.

“That place was really not a good place, but I still liked it. Have someone from Continent F come over, and if possible, take over the West Suburb racetrack for future fun.”

Wen Xin’s fingers idly twirled in her pocket, her anticipation evident. She really hadn’t had enough fun that day.

“Heh, I knew you’d have plans. I’ll arrange it soon, but I think Gan Meng won’t let go easily; after all, no one willingly gives up such a lucrative spot.”

Chu Yunxuan had already investigated the matter; their investment in the project was not just for entertainment.

“Now that it’s a hot potato, let’s use the money we won from the racetrack to buy it. Being targeted by Mu Chengxi, they dare not gamble anymore.”

Wen Xin’s stunning face broke into a cunning smile. Using their money to buy their racetrack—this was a great deal!
