Chapter 264

The seven-day holiday flashed by in the blink of an eye.

Everyone was very excited to go home, and they were also very excited to come back to school.

Perhaps it was still the freshman phase, after going home for a bit, they felt the school was more fun.

Even Li Weijin felt especially nostalgic for the school...really, he simply missed the school.

On National Day, Su Li went abroad to play, and ran to Saipan, tanning herself even darker.

Many classmates bought new clothes, because when coming to class, at least for the girls, everyone wore new clothes, like they had come home for the new year.

Su Li wore small boots, jodhpurs, a short chic jacket, and also wore a loudly colored blue beret, looking very fashionable.

Chic was a term spread by Mieli, referring to clothes like Chanel's style, though later the two found out that she was wearing not just chic style, but Chanel clothes themselves, pretty or not aside, they were frighteningly expensive, crazy expensive, supposedly they couldn't even be washed in water.

The blonde Lin Dongqing also dressed exceptionally beautifully, wearing a thick skirt, her tall nose and white skin and delicate features gave her a mixed race girl characteristic.

In comparison, although their dormmate Chu Yu had also changed into new clothes, they were still cotton and linen, something the boys probably couldn't tell a difference between, and Xia Qi probably wouldn't notice without looking closely.

However, the class monitor and vice monitor seemed to have quickly heated up in their relationship. When coming to class, the monitor even brought breakfast for the vice monitor, causing whispers throughout the class.

They were the first "class couple" in their Class One of the Finance and Economics Department.

Today was October 8th, the Cold Dew solar term, Tuesday, and they had Tuesday classes.

There weren't many classes today, just the morning half day of Accounting and Marxist Theory.

Everyone was still quite excited, feeling as if they were relaxing after a vacation.

The accounting professor was a super old professor poached back from Tsinghua and Peking University. He basically ignored the students, had a heavy accent, taught class, then left, rarely taking roll call.

The second period Fundamentals of Marxism class, most students took as an elective. But Teacher Mao took roll call, and did pop quizzes, so everyone was reluctant to skip class.

The homework that Teacher Mao had assigned before, Xia Qi had spent a lot of effort and finally completed, handing it in.

Teacher Mao had them write an essay, no set topic, it could be called societal observation, life observation.

Xia Qi wrote about content regarding informal groups.

Because the school had many clubs, as well as the student union. And usually, everyone had QQ groups and WeChat groups. Relative to the class collective and such, these should belong to another group.

But everyone acted differently. Some students were very quiet in class, but could shine in clubs. Some students were very serious and aloof in real life, but very lively and easygoing in groups - like a certain Northern and Southern Dynasties classmate.

There were also students who were arrogant in daily life, but acted like little leaders in the student union, very serious and professional - like Xia Qi's dormmate Mieli, who aspired to become a student union leader.

In short, everyone seemed to act differently in different groups, but they were still the same person. What caused this result?

Xia Qi focused on writing her own observations and summaries, in addition to the textbook ideology.

What she wrote was still actually very naive, but Teacher Mao still read it carefully, even gave detailed commentary, and told Xia Qi how to format it as an essay, greatly encouraging and praising her.

Xia Qi felt extremely good, very motivated.

Praise really was an amazing weapon, she would have to use it more herself in the future.

The praised Xia Qi felt her whole body brimming with energy.

The four girls in Xia Qi's dorm arrogantly wore their dorm uniforms today, everyone wore the same style hoodies, looking great together.

The hoodies came in four colors, the base colors were red, yellow, blue and green, but each color had a layer of grey added, so they weren't so glaring, becoming the popular Morandi colors.

Yunshu chose light blue, Wei Cheng chose light yellow, Mieli left light red for herself, so the remaining light green was Xia Qi's.

Xia Qi rarely wore green. Fortunately this green had a layer of grey, so it wouldn't look especially green. With her fair skin, it was rare for her to wear this color, very lively and cute, going with her jeans for a very refreshing look.

At this time, it was still a bit hot to wear fleece in the classroom, Xia Qi attended class with her sleeves rolled up.

Revealing her Van Cleef & Arpels white mother-of-pearl four-leaf clover bracelet on her wrist, and the Longines watch she got as a reward from an English speech competition.

Although Xia Qi also really liked her sports watch, that watch face was very big. Wearing long sleeves in fall and winter, it wasn't very convenient to have it hidden inside. So Xia Qi switched to this watch, it was very breezy, she didn't have to especially consider outfits to match it, it went with anything.

The four dormmates all had new jewelry.

Wei Cheng carefully put on a Gucci watch, a bit like a bracelet, gold in color.

The necklace Mieli wore yesterday was still on.

Yunshu wore a black Cartier lucky charm necklace, worn next to her skin hidden by her collar.

Guys generally wouldn't notice what jewelry girls wore, but girls noticed each other.

And Chu Yu especially noticed, staring at Su Xiaoqi for some reason.

Seeing the bracelet on Su Xiaoqi's wrist, she recognized it as being expensive, Van Cleef & Arpels.

Xia Qi was usually so stingy, wearing such old clothes, backpack fraying, yet willing to buy such an expensive bracelet for herself. Chu Yu subconsciously felt it was wrong, but thinking of how rumors always collapsed on their own before.

Plus this time, Su Xiaoqi seemed to have broken the marathon record, with a million yuan prize, real or not was unknown.

It was common knowledge that Xia Qi ran every day, anyone with her WeChat could see her dominating the leaderboard on WeChat Sport every day.

But was she really good enough to break records?

Simply unbelievable, Chu Yu felt a jealousy that distorted her face, but still had a gentle smile on the surface.

Seemingly on good terms with Xia Qi and the others, after class in front of the other students, she generously praised, "Wow, class monitor, your bracelet is so pretty, it's Van Cleef & Arpels right? This one costs over 10,000 right, really bold! As expected of someone who got a big prize."

Xia Qi's brows furrowed slightly, it was that expensive? She asked Yunshu, Yunshu said her mother bought it at a duty-free shop, relatively cheap at just a few thousand.

Deskmate Mieli had never liked seeing Chu Yu's pretentiousness on normal days. At Chu Yu's words, she loved to refute, immediately saying, "Xia Qi didn't buy this, Yunshu gave it to her. Yunshu gave each of us gifts when she came back from the National Day holiday. Look at my necklace."

Hearing Mieli's words, everyone else was stunned, not expecting Gu Yunshu to be so rich.

Compared to the four leaf clover bracelet, Bulgari necklace that Mieli wore was clearly more familiar to everyone, often seen worn by celebrities in various ads.

They had also heard Gu Yunshu was a rich second generation, but she was usually very low-key, and didn't talk much in class.

Casually gifting necklaces and jewelry worth tens of thousands, simply too expensive! It would be so hard for guys wanting to date them! With a rich dormmate, what did they need boyfriends for?

Chu Yu looked on enviously as well. Her dormmate Su Li had gone abroad for the National Day holiday, but had no special treatment when she came back, just bringing some snacks. Were they lacking those snacks? Those pastries were rock hard, completely inedible.

Everyone expressed envy. The guys didn't understand things like gifts and whatnot. Hearing the girls discuss, they just felt girls were so troublesome. But they also found out that seemingly very rich girl who usually didn't talk, sitting in the corner by the window.

Gifting items and jewelry worth tens of thousands so casually, it was too expensive! It would be so difficult for guys wanting to date them!

Sitting behind Chu Yu, Li Weijin also saw the delicate bracelet on Xia Qi's wrist. Thin and very pretty.

In daily life he matched accessories when dressing, subconscious actions trained by his mother. He didn't especially think they were very pretty or ugly. But seeing the thin bracelet hanging on Xia Qi's fair wrist, the pearly white four leaf clover, he felt it was very dainty and pretty.

Li Weijin's face was stern, but his clavicle felt slightly feverish.

He had so many bracelets, necklaces and the like, I really wanted to put one on Su Xiaoqi's hand or around her neck.

Chu Yu originally wanted to say that Su Xiaoqi was nouveau riche, so buying such expensive things for herself was too vain. But she didn't expect that they were actually gifts from her roommates, and her jealous heart became uneasy.

She couldn't help asking, "Class monitor, didn't you get a lot of prize money? Didn't you buy anything? Are you going to treat us to a meal?"

After Chu Yu asked this, the class bell unfortunately rang, and everyone returned to their seats.
