Chapter 208: Donation Certificate Exposure
Chapter 208
When it was time again for the big class in the afternoon, the computer practice class, everyone had to walk to the computer lab building.
Liu Xiao then understood what the mysterious meaning of what Xiaoqi had said so secretively in the morning.
It had spread throughout the day.
It was nothing more than Su Xiaoqi obviously having money, winning first place in the Top Ten Singers and twenty thousand yuan, but still insisting on going to the racetrack to work part-time, actually it was to see someone...
There were also those who said Su Xiaoqi was just money-grubbing, her family was too poor, so even though she got the prize money she didn't spend a penny of it, and still went to work part-time.
Neither were good words, one was lustful and the other greedy...
Even when Xiaoqi left the dorm and met Su Li, she was given a disdainful look by Su Li.
Su Li was the kind of person who wore her joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness on her face, very straightforward.
When Xiaoqi found out the reason, she immediately realized that not only were beautiful women disastrous, but so were handsome men. She had hardly had any contact with Li Weijin from beginning to end. She had only talked to him for a few sentences yesterday, and then never paid him any more attention because of her own work.
Thinking back, they probably hadn't talked at all during other times.
Xiaoqi thought that Su Li was much more polite to her than to Chu Yu. She scolded Chu Yu directly, pointing her finger and accusing her of wishful thinking, while she just raised her eyebrows at Xiaoqi with an arrogant look. After this comparison, her mood surprisingly improved.
Xiaoqi thought it was funny that there seemed to be a bit of masochism in human nature. Seeing someone very fierce scold someone else, and then just scolding herself, she actually felt grateful and happy.
She could have held her head high and said straightforwardly that she had nothing going on with Li Weijin, but she thought of what the system had said... the first awakening of love... o(╯□╰)o...
She couldn't justify herself so righteously.
She still had that feeling towards Li Weijin of seeing something beautiful.
There was no way around it, Li Weijin was just too good looking. Xiaoqi was like this, and all kinds of enhanced people were inferior to her.
Xiaoqi felt that one day when she had carefully put on perfect makeup without making any mistakes, she might barely catch up to Li Weijin's usual ordinary appearance.
Moreover, the temperament was something that couldn't be imitated. It was intrinsic to her, while Li Weijin had probably been finely cultivated since childhood, and was not of the same world as Xiaoqi.
There was appreciation, but no other feelings.
It was like seeing an exquisite and beautiful ornament that you would like and appreciate, but you wouldn't want to date the ornament. That was the feeling.
Xiaoqi sorted it out for herself and felt very clear, without worrying too much either.
As for the talk of her loving money, desperately wanting money, and her family being poor, she cared even less. In Enhua, compared to truly rich people, how many people weren't poor?
She didn't pay too much attention to the rumors in the class.
If you cared too much about what others thought, you might as well be dead. There were over 70 people in the class with 70 different thoughts. She couldn't explain to each of them individually.
Since there was no basis to the matter, Xiaoqi was not worried at all.
But it made her roommates very worried.
Although Gu Yunshu read novels all day and seemed to not care about anything she saw, in reality her family circumstances were the best of the roommates, and she had the most experience. She just said, "Xiaoqi may have caught someone's eye."
Wei Cheng frowned, feeling somewhat guilty. It was clearly because she had gone with Xiaoqi to the racetrack to work and study, and if not for herself there wouldn't have been so much trouble... And the talk of Xiaoqi coming from a desperately poor family, being greedy for money, made her even more uneasy. She always felt that someone like Xiaoqi who worked so hard should not be slandered like this. Xiaoqi really did work very hard and was very ambitious. She was the hardest working person she had seen so far, and a person like this deserved to obtain very good things, rather than being talked about like this.
Honey was the angriest. She had a bad temper and couldn't stand this kind of slander. Whenever she heard any, she would ask the person face-to-face who they heard it from, wanting to find each one.
But with so many people in a class, it was difficult to find them one by one in a short time.
After finishing the practical class, they had to run back to the Bamboo Grove building for lessons, without much time in between, and the group rushed to barely make it.
Xiaoqi, on the contrary, really liked this feeling of being busy. She felt a student should be like this, very fulfilling.
On the way, she chatted and laughed with her roommates. It seemed the rumors had no effect on her at all.
Li Weijin, on the other hand, had a gloomy expression, not smiling, appearing very cold and serious. He was naturally like that, and no one would come to say these things to his face, but he wasn't deaf and could still hear them.
He had been surrounded by scandals like this since kindergarten, and had always ignored them since they were false anyway.
But this time, he cared a lot, and was even strangely happy inside.
As a result, he saw that Su Xiaoqi didn't care at all...
He suddenly felt that he understood the aggrieved looks all those years from girls who he'd been paired with in scandals.
Now he felt a little aggrieved...
But he didn't even dare look at Su Xiaoqi.
Seeing Xiaoqi looking completely unconcerned, Chu Yu was furious inside.
It was said that when she was young, she had poor health. For some unknown reason, when she was 2 or 3 years old, she was hospitalized for emergency treatment and almost didn't make it. As the only daughter in the family, she was treasured and pampered like a precious jewel. Although she never had another attack afterwards, she still considered herself to be in poor health. Whenever she got angry, her face would turn as pale as paper. But she was still a young girl, so it wasn't frightening, but rather pitiful to look at, giving her a different kind of charm.
This kind of charm was something Xiaoqi and her roommates who had never seriously dated couldn't understand, but many boys found it very attractive.
Chu Yu was the labor committee member, and Xiaoqi's front deskmate Chen Hanhe was the deputy labor committee member. The two were often together, so Chen Hanhe was the most gossipy, constantly asking Xiaoqi about it, only to get cursed out by Honey every time. But he persevered tirelessly in asking. Even Xiaoqi was amazed.
Seeing her like this now, her roommate Lin Dongqing was quite concerned and asked, "Are you okay?"
Even Chen Hanhe walked over to Chu Yu's side, looking nervous.
Chu Yu weakly said, "I might have heat stroke from going back and forth, it's nothing."
Although she said it was nothing, her face grew even paler.
Her face was pale, but her lips were still slightly red. She had applied lipstick, the kind of light color that matched her pale complexion very well.
Beautiful yet weak looking.
Xiaoqi didn't notice any of this and walked quickly back to the classroom with her roommates to get ready before class.
There were just too many textbooks for the information management major, plus Xiaoqi was also studying English and Japanese. There was so much stuff that the drawers couldn't fit it all.
Xiaoqi took it out to organize.
The students behind them gradually arrived at the classroom.
Although they were university students now, the boys still horsed around.
Publicity committee member Chen Daen was especially lively. Dark and thin, it wasn't clear whether he provoked his roommate or vice versa, but one chased and the other ran.
Then Chen Daen rushed into the classroom, and accidentally bumped into the corner of Xiaoqi's desk... and whoosh... the books Xiaoqi had just taken out all fell to the ground.
Chen Daen quickly apologized. His roommate Zhang Hu also felt very bad about knocking all the learning committee member's books to the ground. He quickly bent over to help pick them up.
Learning committee member Su Xiaoqi was also an outstanding character in their nighttime dorm conversations. Beautiful was one aspect, but mainly it was the top student vibe, and also quite fierce. When the learning committee said assignments had to be handed in, even the boys surprisingly didn't dare to slack off.
There was also a portion who had gone to see the Mid-Autumn Festival evening party. They were freshmen after all, curious about any activity, and would participate if they could. They were attracted by the learning committee member on stage, thinking she was amazing.
Chen Daen had gone too. He was the publicity committee member, and loved lively places, so he would definitely go to such activities.
Seeing Su Xiaoqi on stage, his eyes lit up.
He had an easygoing personality, spoke loudly, looked ordinary, and wasn't very tall. He didn't dare think much. No one noticed, but when talking alone with Su Xiaoqi, he would blush, which didn't show on his dark skin.
He didn't realize it himself, he just felt Xiaoqi seemed different somehow, but couldn't say where. Anyway, different.
Zhang Hu was also quite mischievous, horsing around with Chen Daen. But now he obediently went to pick up books, and saw a stack of English assignments... damn... as expected of the learning committee member.
They all threw away their English books after the college entrance exam. Who would still do test papers?
Looking through the papers, there were some English proficiency test papers, some were for the College English Test Band 4, some were for Band 6, and many were filled to the brim...
Oh my god, after finishing looking through... came another "oh my god!"
Some students who had already arrived also helped pick up the papers.
Chu Yu, who had come in last with a sick beauty's pose, finally arrived after the other students.
The students picking up books saw Japanese books and Japanese exercise papers...Full of notes and exercise contents...Like heavenly scriptures...Were they from the same school?
Why did it feel like there were so many "oh my gods"?
At this time, Chen Daen picked up a piece of paper that had floated under someone else's desk. Seeing the contents on it, he was stunned.
He read it over and over again several times.
The other people had put the books back already. Seeing that Chen Daen was still holding something, Zhang Hu, who had been messing with him earlier, also craned his neck to see what it was.
As a result, they saw the words "Donation Certificate" in big letters.
It said that Su Xiaoqi had actually donated 20,000 RMB to a village below Luoxi Town, to build a school.
Chu Yu, who looked sickly, was given a spot by the gentlemanly male students to look at it.
Seeing what was in Chen Daen's hand, her face became even paler...Was it easy for her to painstakingly make up those vague rumors? She had even come up with two seemingly plausible versions, because she knew that sometimes when talking about someone, don't say just one thing, saying two versions of a rumor would subconsciously make people choose A or B, rather than feel like believing it or not believing it.
But looking at this donation certificate, those two rumors seemed ridiculous.
It turned out Su Xiaoqi had donated all of her Top 10 Singer prize money. And this certificate wasn't made right away, obviously she had donated it previously, and hadn't publicized it, even her roommate hadn't mentioned it.
Because at this time the exaggerated voice of her deskmate Chen Mi'er rang out, "Xiaoqi, you actually donated all the prize money, you didn't even tell us."
Wei Cheng and Gu Yunshu also looked at the donation certificate with complicated expressions.
Wei Cheng felt admiration, more admiration, and still admiration.
Gu Yunshu had never lacked money, but had also never thought about giving money to others.
Xiaoqi hadn't expected this certificate to cause such an incident after falling out. That day she had gone straight to class after coming back from the horse farm. She was planning on organizing it today and taking it back home.
Now it was not easy to explain.
She could only helplessly say, "I happened to have this money, heard they were building schoolhouses and donated it. Class is starting soon, let's return to our seats."
Everyone dispersed.
"Class monitor, let me admire this again, I haven't seen this before." Chen Daen took the certificate and ran back to his seat before Xiaoqi could refuse.
Then the certificate was passed around and viewed by the male students behind.
Li Weijin, who was always fashionably late and entered last through the back door, haughtily sat down in his seat. Then he saw the "donation certificate" in his deskmate's hands.
He was stunned for a moment.
He had always thought she was very poor.
In order to win prize money she had participated in swimming competitions, singing competitions, and worked hard. She had never used good brushes, especially knew how to appreciate food, and cherished it when eating. She had to make handicrafts herself to earn money. But she was actually able to donate money without care, she had really just donated the money...
