Chapter 265: The Primary Bad Luck Card
Chapter 265
Chu Yu was a little unwilling to give up and felt that Su Xiaoqi could always get through one disaster after another.
It was hard to ask her, and as it turned out she had class.
She was thinking about this matter the whole time during class and did not pay attention well. She endured until the class was over.
Su Xiaoqi, on the other hand, listened to class attentively until the end of class refreshed and relaxed. Her knowledge level of Basic Principles of Marxism had reached proficiency. Whenever she listened to class, she always had the feeling of sudden enlightenment. She and Teacher Mao seemed to have endless words to say to each other, affectionate with each other. Although there were over seventy people in one class, Su Xiaoqi still felt like she was being tutored one-on-one. She especially liked to listen to Teacher Mao talk. Although the teacher looked ordinary, once she opened a book and started teaching, she was full of charm and very admirable.
Every sentence the teacher said seemed to make a lot of sense.
This was probably the charm of university. It was not necessary to learn any professional knowledge, because most people's jobs after graduation had nothing to do with their majors. But at school you could always learn a lot of knowledge and insights that would benefit you for life.
After a class, Su Xiaoqi was very satisfied, like she had eaten a delicious meal.
When school was over, Teacher Mao Xihong unexpectedly took the initiative to come over and chat with Su Xiaoqi for a few sentences: "Congratulations on breaking the marathon record. My partner also participated in the competition and ran a half marathon. He also finished it. You are really amazing."
This made Su Xiaoqi feel very embarrassed.
"I run every day, and I am also from a mountain village, so my physical fitness is a little better."
"Haha, I told my partner you are my student and he didn't believe it." Mao Xihong said with a hearty laugh, "Come on, let's take a picture together so I can show him."
Su Xiaoqi was really pulled aside by the teacher to take a photo. However, Teacher Mao did not use a beauty filter and used the Apple front camera instead. Su Xiaoqi's fair and delicate little face looked fine, but Teacher Mao's own face in the photo was huge. She didn't care and forwarded the photo to her partner after taking it.
After going to eat, Chu Yu learned the news she did not want to know.
Su Xiaoqi got so much prize money but did not treat anyone to a meal. However, she gave each of her roommates a particularly expensive gift.
Wei Cheng, the country girl, got a laptop.
The coquettish Chen Mier got a Sony camera.
Gu Yunshu got a set of tea ware, said to be more expensive than a Van Cleef & Arpels bracelet.
It was said that once when chatting in the dormitory, Su Xiaoqi had asked everyone what gifts they wanted. They each said what they wanted, and did not expect that Su Xiaoqi would actually buy them. At that time, Su Xiaoqi had not yet participated in the marathon, but she acted as if she knew she would break the record. Now she really bought all these gifts.
Jewelry and other luxury goods did not make much of an impression on the students. Perhaps the distance was too far, and not everyone knew those brands. But things like computers and cameras, everyone knew how much they cost. After all, these were considered daily necessities, and were also necessities for college students.
The girls were fine, but the boys were clamoring, almost wishing they were Su Xiaoqi's roommates.
The class monitor was too generous and domineering.
The boys were naturally more fond of electronics. Even if they didn't buy them, they were generally very knowledgeable about them.
As for the tea set Su Xiaoqi bought for her classmate Gu Yunshu, everyone didn't understand what it was for. But Gu Yunshu was a rich second generation, so normal logic didn't apply. They could only try to understand...but actually didn't understand at all. A tea cup costing thousands or tens of thousands, what on earth was that?
But with such a strange gift, the class monitor was actually able to provide it. Ow ow...
Li Weijin also had a look of aloofness.
But he felt warm inside, as if Su Xiaoqi was giving gifts to him.
That day at the marathon scene, he saw her run. She really tried very hard. He saw another side of her, the weakness and softness after exerting all her strength.
A hundred thousand or so was not much to Li Weijin, but it was not a small amount either. After all, at his age, he could sit in cars worth millions or tens of millions. His family could provide the best material conditions, but his own disposable income was limited.
Facing the request to take a blood test, she was frank and aboveboard. The money she got was hard earned.
How many people in the world could break records?
When he talked about this matter with his brother, even his brother said that the girl was amazing.
There were very few people who could get praise from his brother.
But when she got the money, she basically didn't buy anything for herself, but instead thoughtfully bought gifts that each of her roommates wanted.
How lucky her roommates were.
Chu Yu was so jealous that she could not even eat her meal. She usually didn't eat much anyway, always acting like her health was poor and she didn't eat many staples.
Su Xiaoqi herself did not think too much about it. Although people always say one good turn deserves another, when they returned after the National Day holiday, everyone in their dormitory brought back the best gifts from their families, regardless of their conditions.
The food Wei Cheng's mother made may have been less expensive than the luxury jewelry and accessories Gu Yunshu's mother casually bought, but they were given more sincerely.
It was the same with the clothes Chen Mier's family brought. They were produced in their own factory, and she had carefully selected them.
If it was the original Su Xiaoqi, she probably would have brought homemade food like Wei Cheng did, or handmade crafts made by her dad and other down-to-earth things.
But she didn't feel like those things were not good.
Although the prices were different, the value was the same. This time, everyone in the dormitory brought gifts for each other.
After eating, the four girls went back to the dorm together, forming a beautiful sight again in their matching hoodies.
Chen Mier paired it with denim overalls shorts, Wei Cheng paired it with a skirt, Gu Yunshu wore a strappy dress inside, and Su Xiaoqi paired it with jeans. Each looked good in her own way.
There were even people coming to ask where they bought their clothes from. When they learned it was made in Chen Mier's family factory, there were even people who wanted to place orders with Chen Mier.
Chen Mier was very excited, and somehow felt like a small businesswoman taking over. She immediately said, "Sure, the clothes from my family's factory, whatever you want I can give you at cost price. This hoodie is priced over 800 yuan outside, if you want it, let me ask my family. It should be around one or two hundred yuan, but it's best to order more, otherwise shipping is difficult."
There were also people who didn't want the same style but wanted other styles. Chen Mier readily said, "Sure, there are many styles. I'll make a group chat and send the clothing styles in it later. You can pick and choose yourself."
So in this way, Su Xiaoqi's roommate and deskmate somehow seemed to develop in a strange direction because of their matching dorm clothes.
Her family was in business, so she was very smart. She later sent many more clothes, always in sets of four based on the sizes of the four people in Su Xiaoqi's dorm. Su Xiaoqi and the others saved money on buying clothes, while also becoming advertisements for Chen Mier. Basically, a lot of people came to Chen Mier to order the clothes they wore.
After deducting the factory cost of the clothes from her family, Chen Mier could actually earn tens or hundreds of yuan per piece of clothing. She completely earned her living expenses, and had a little extra pocket money.
She didn't know if this counted as encroaching on her family's territory, but Su Xiaoqi was quite impressed with Chen Mier. Dealing with so many people to buy clothes in bits and pieces, she didn't seem particularly busy. She handled it all on her phone, and her life was still the same as usual.
The other three roommates all disliked dealing with people.
Only Chen Mier seemed to take to it like a fish to water. Because of selling clothes, she later got along better and better in the student union. Most of the people in the student union had bought clothes from Chen Mier.
Chen Mier's classmate gradually developed into a campus micro merchant agent. Level by level, ordering a certain amount of clothes from her could get a discount and so on. These were all later events.
For now, Su Xiaoqi and her roommates just watched Chen Mier deal with students from other dorms coming to place clothes orders, while they admired each other's gifts back in their dorm, sighing and wishing they were in Room 606.
What puzzled them the most was that girls from the English department also came to Chen Mier to order clothes, including the so-called English department goddess Wu Xinyue. Seeing her up close, Su Xiaoqi realized Wu Xinyue's hair was really well cared for, truly black and waist-length. Her voice speaking was very tender, like Lin Chi-ling's voice.
Wu Xinyue was not actually very interested in clothes. She was very interested in Su Xiaoqi, so she came along. She saw that on Su Xiaoqi's desk, in addition to English books, there were also Japanese and Korean textbooks... Not only calligraphy practice works, but also paintings... She really had too many complaints in her heart to voice out.
When she just went home for the National Day holiday, this person actually broke the marathon record and earned so much money.
If she had so much money, she would... she would most want to get her nose slightly reshaped again, and her eyes too.
But Su Xiaoqi actually bought a pile of gifts for her roommates...
Really, really, she was so envious of Su Xiaoqi's roommates.
Xiaoqi didn't really like having so many people in the dormitory, but seeing that Honey was quite excited, she didn't say anything and just put on headphones to practice writing.
As a result, the mechanical sound in her ears suddenly rang out: "The host generously gave thoughtful gifts to her roommates, receiving six sincere jealousy chips. The host is rewarded with a basic bad luck card that the host can use on anyone for one day. Please use it prudently."
Xiaoqi looked at the interface where a strange gray-black card had been added, as if a strange door had suddenly opened.
