CHAPTER 310: CHAPTER 302: STRAIGHTFORWARD GIRL

Zhu Yunxiu also found it funny and didn’t expect Shangguan Feifei, the unattainable beauty, to have such a straightforward nature. She thought Feifei was someone not easy to mess with!

Once everyone got to know her better, Shangguan Feifei explained it like this: because she was not very good at speaking from a young age, she often offended many people. Therefore, her parents asked her to speak less and to act as mysterious as possible. Although she had fewer friends this way, at least she didn’t offend anyone!

Thus, the aloof and noble Black Rose was born!

So that’s it!

Sisi instantly got it, truly, appearances are deceiving!

Since Shangguan Feifei joined their group, there tended to be a lot more laughter every day, as Feifei, to put it nicely, is a frank girl, and to put it not so nicely, a silly girl plus a glutton. No wonder her parents would rather have their daughter remain mute than let her speak.

For instance, it’s universally acknowledged that Mo Liu is handsome, but no one would tell him that to his face because Mo Liu hates being told he looks good. He prefers being told he looks manly, though naturally, no one would say that against their conscience.

Since the last time Shangguan Feifei snatched most of the meat buns from him, and since she always managed to grab more food than Shangguan Beauty, Mo Liu started holding a grudge against her. Of course, it was a one-sided grudge, as Shangguan Saniu didn’t take it to heart at all.

Mo Liu: Shangguan Feifei, are you even a woman? You eat even more than a man like me!

Shangguan: I’m the man, and you’re the woman!

Everyone: ....Shangguan, being so honest isn’t the way!

Mo Liu cries: Sisi, this woman is bullying me!

Sisi: There, there, I’ll beat her up for you later!

Scenes like this happen every day during meals. Everyone started from being amused to now seeing it as normal, even hoping the pair would argue more so they could enjoy more delicious dishes.

The atmosphere in Sisi’s dining group became more harmonious, and thus in the dorm, they naturally split into three teams: Sisi, Shangguan, and Zhu Yunxiu formed one group; Liu Xuelian and Song Mengshi formed another; Li Anqi, due to her gentle and generous personality, got along well with everyone without any noticeable divisions.

Since the last time Liu Xuelian was humiliated by Tang Anzhi in front of classmates, she harbored hatred towards Sisi, believing it was all because of Sisi that Tang Anzhi rejected her; otherwise, she was sure she would have gotten the role of Si Feng.

Regarding this, Sisi said that an idiot always looks for reasons to justify themselves on others. She never took Liu Xuelian seriously. Liu Xuelian, though domineering, unreasonable, and lacking in schemes, was transparent and straightforward, so there was nothing to watch out for.

However, the other two in the dorm room did have some headaches. Song Mengshi, the girl from Shanghai, was also delicately arrogant and often spoke sharply. It’s unclear why, but Song Mengshi clashed with Sisi. Whenever Sisi was in the dorm, Song Mengshi would always insinuate uncomfortable things, though she wouldn’t dare to be too obvious in front of Sisi; but come nighttime, she became active.

For instance, when mentioning Sisi bringing food, Song Mengshi would say: Oh, when we came to university, my parents said that studying here is about enduring hardships, not enjoying luxuries. You shouldn’t act like a bourgeois young lady; that’s something to be overthrown!

Or: Oh, changing into a new outfit every day, really acting like a bourgeois young lady there, we came here to attend classes, not a fashion show.

Moreover: Always walking so close with male classmates, if people didn’t know better, they’d think you’re dating someone, really setting a bad example for our class!

....

And whenever this happens, Liu Xuelian and Song Mengshi would echo each other, while Li Anqi would gently try to mediate by the side, suggesting that Song Mengshi and Liu Xuelian tone it down a bit. But to Sisi, Li Anqi’s intervention seemed to only add fuel to the fire, making the two of them talk even more ferociously! This was all told to Sisi by Zhu Yunxiu.

It seems that the one with the deepest intentions in the dorm is Li Anqi! Always staying in the background, watching the drama unfold, prompting Song Mengshi and Liu Xuelian, the two fools, to spearhead the gossip, occasionally adding more fuel to the fire.

Tsk tsk, isn’t Li Anqi just a typical green tea bitch? Unexpectedly, even this small six-person dorm forms its own little Jianghu. No wonder they say that college campuses are like mini societies.

Sisi, however, didn’t care about these snide remarks at all, since they weren’t calling names, and she didn’t spend much time in the dorm anyway. As long as they didn’t say it to her face, she didn’t care what they said, but if they went too far, she wasn’t one to be trifled with.

But Zhu Yunxiu couldn’t stand to listen anymore. She stayed in the dorm every day, enduring these harsh words, and had long harbored a gutful of anger. Seeing Shangguan’s foolish demeanor (since knowing Shangguan’s true nature, her so-called aloof elegance had turned into foolishness), Zhu Yunxiu was infuriated beyond measure.

One night, Song Mengshi was again performing a duet of mockery with Liu Xuelian. Ever since Liu Xuelian had teamed up with Song Mengshi, she would sleep in the dorm for a day or two each week, just to share the thrill of belittling Sisi with Song Mengshi.

"Hey, how can you still stand to listen to this? Didn’t you hear these bastards bad-mouthing Sisi?" Zhu Yunxiu pulled Shangguan out to the balcony, frustrated and disappointed.

Shangguan was taken aback, "Sisi’s name wasn’t mentioned."

Zhu Yunxiu felt dizzy with anger, "They are insinuating; don’t you understand? Didn’t you study Chinese language? They are definitely talking about Sisi."

"Those who speak ill of Sisi are not good!"

Shangguan nodded solemnly, then turned away from Zhu Yunxiu and headed back to the dorm.

Zhu Yunxiu: What does this fool mean? Did she even understand?

But Zhu Yunxiu did not ponder for long; three seconds later, a scream rang out from the dorm, and then it fell silent.

Zhu Yunxiu was startled and felt a bad premonition, hoping it wasn’t what she thought, praying for protection!

But the ancestors were busy and didn’t have time for Zhu Yunxiu. When she rushed back to the dorm, she saw Song Mengshi and Liu Xuelian with towels stuffed in their mouths, Shangguan holding each like plucking chickens, with Li Anqi’s mouth agape wide enough to fit a boiled egg.

"If I hear either of you talking badly about Sisi again, I’ll throw you both down from the fourth floor!" Shangguan unusually uttered a complete sentence with a subject, verb, and object, her face fiercely imposing, damnably gorgeous.

Song Mengshi and Liu Xuelian nodded pitifully, tears and snot smeared over their faces. Why was Shangguan so rough? Why did she start with violence?

Shangguan, satisfied, nodded and released her hands, letting Song Mengshi and Liu Xuelian drop heavily to the ground, wincing in pain.

"You, a hypocrite, not a good person!" Shangguan dealt with the duo and then turned to confront the brains behind the operation, shattering Li Anqi’s perfect facade with a single statement.

Li Anqi, unable to maintain her usual gentle and gracious demeanor, stared at Shangguan Feifei incredulously, as if she couldn’t believe such a straightforward girl existed in the world. Why was the scenario completely different from what she expected?

Zhu Yunxiu was also stunned; she hadn’t expected Shangguan’s method to be so simple and violent, but it was damn satisfying, and she loved it. She would never again call Shangguan a fool!
