Chapter 523: Chapter 523 Pretending to Be Rich

"No wonder Lu Siyuan has an issue with you. If I were in his shoes, I’d have an issue with you too."

"Xiaohui, you really didn’t play fair in the past!"

Boys got familiar with each other very quickly. After chatting for a while and starting to address each other by names, they all became quite close.

Even Du Xiaohui felt he had been foolish before, but he still forcefully explained, "You can’t blame me for that. It was Sun He who lied. He never discussed it with me beforehand. He just came up with that scenario. Plus, I didn’t join in on lying. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had the chance to stand here and talk to you guys."

Nobody actually thought much ill of Du Xiaohui. They were just teasing him, and when they heard his explanation, they all burst out laughing.

Being young and energetic, none of them felt sleepy. After chatting about all sorts of things for a while, Fu Geng turned on the radio, and everyone listened to a book while lying in their beds.

By the time Lu Siyuan returned, Du Xiaohui was already asleep. Lu Siyuan kicked off his shoes and fell asleep on his bed.

Shen Mianmian and Lu Siyuan had a rather good first day of the new term. Compared to them, Zhou Siyu didn’t fare as well.

In middle school and elementary school, she was quite popular among her classmates, and as they were all children from rural towns, they were younger and there was no competition.

It was only after moving into a high school dormitory that she realized how big the gap between her and her classmates really was. Eight people lived in the dormitory, and apart from Zhao Xinlan, she didn’t know the other six girls.

Fortunately, since she and Zhao Xinlan were two acquaintances who moved in together, the others didn’t purposely bully her.

After observing for some time, she noticed that, except for Tian Caiyan, who slept in the bunk above her, the other five girls came from families with similar or even lower socio-economic status than her own.

Therefore, she intentionally tried to get on Tian Caiyan’s good side. After hearing Tian Caiyan’s quiet complaints about disliking the upper bunk, she proactively offered to switch bunks with her.

Tian Caiyan didn’t reject her deliberate attempt to ingratiate herself and swapped beds with her right away. Consequently, the two of them got to know each other better and introduced themselves.

Once they were familiar, Tian Caiyan shared about her family situation, "My family runs a food factory, my dad is the boss. Siyu, what does your family do?"

Just then, a girl in the opposite bed was introducing herself, mentioning that her parents were farmers. When she said this, a hint of disdain flashed in Tian Caiyan’s eyes.

Zhou Siyu, sharp-eyed, noticed her expression, pursed her lips, and said with a smile, "My family is from the countryside too. But we own a restaurant in the town."

"You own a restaurant?" said Tian Caiyan with an air implying your family isn’t as well-off as mine, yet she didn’t show any sign of disdain.

Zhao Xinlan, who had just come back from showering outside, happened to hear Zhou Siyu’s words. Not only did she not expose Zhou Siyu, but she also fabricated that her own family ran a tailor shop.

Except for Tian Caiyan, who seemed to show off that her family was wealthier, the other girls all envied them.

This greatly satisfied the vanity of both Zhou Siyu and Zhao Xinlan.

After tidying up the beds, Zhou Siyu, carrying her washbasin, readied to go out for a shower. Tian Caiyan glanced at her and, noticing she only took her change of clothes and a towel, curiously asked, "Siyu, don’t you use soap when you shower?"

Soap?

What’s that?

When showering at home, she simply rinsed with water, never having used any soap.
