The dormitory door was opened, and her roommates Gu Yunzhen, Pei Xue, and Zhong Xiaoyuan came back together. The three were chatting. When the door opened, Zhong Xiaoyuan, who was walking in front, saw Bai Yanning's shoes placed beside the bed, and the bed curtains were tightly covered. She turned around and pointed to Bai Yanning's bed to the two people behind her. Gu Yunzhen and Zhong Jing immediately shut up. The three walked into the dormitory and did their own things silently without making any sound.

In a small group of just three people, messages were refreshed one by one, and soon there were 99+.

It was not until almost half an hour later that the three men saw Bai Yanning lying quietly behind the curtain as if she didn't exist. They guessed that she was too embarrassed to come out and see people. The three of them winked at each other and looked at Bai Yanning's position with disdain.

Bai Yanning looks cold, fragile and pitiful. This kind of appearance is a killer for men of all ages, but it is also the appearance that women are most likely to dislike.

This is definitely the standard image of a "white lotus" or "green tea bitch".

But not everyone judges people by their appearance. When freshman year just started, no one harbored any unfounded ill will towards Bai Yanning.

It wasn't until they got to know her that they realized she was really just like the first impression she gave them, that she was really "pretending".

The three people who shared a dormitory with her felt it particularly strongly.

When they first met, everyone introduced themselves to each other. Bai Yanning was indifferent and only said, "My name is Bai Yanning, and I'm from City C."

Everyone assumed she was just aloof, but Zhong Xiaoyuan was a native of City A, a typical northern girl. She said enthusiastically, "I have an aunt who also married in City C. She's a teacher at City C No. 1 Middle School. Hey, which high school did you graduate from? Maybe you even know my aunt! My aunt's name is Ye Zhengqin."

Bai Yanning lowered her eyes and replied indifferently, "I don't know him."

Zhong Xiaoyuan wanted to continue talking, but Bai Yanning suddenly stood up and left without a word.

Zhong Xiaoyuan was stunned. "No, she... isn't she a little rude?"

Except for Bai Yanning, the other three were very talkative and were all natives of City A. They had many common topics and became friends in just half a day. Bai Yanning had missed the best time to integrate with them.

She is a very quiet person and never invites others to attend classes, eat or chat. She always keeps to herself and she doesn't seem to care about it.

Pei Xue, on the other hand, initially felt that it was not good for the three of them to always play together among the four people in the dormitory, leaving Bai Yanning alone, so she asked her to go shopping at Vientiane City together on the weekend.

Zhong Xiaoyuan had been a little upset with her ever since she'd been inexplicably ignored her on the first day of school, but after all, they were roommates, so it was always right to maintain a good relationship. So, she said, "Yeah, let's go together. A lot of stores in MixC are having Double Eleven promotions right now. Let's go together. If you buy a lot, you can get discounts and coupons!"

Bai Yanning lowered her head while cleaning the table. She tucked a strand of hair that fell on the side of her face behind her ear and said in a cold and calm tone, "I'm not going."

After saying that, she seemed to feel that her refusal was a bit abrupt, and she said, "I have something to do this weekend."

It was too obvious that she didn't want to get close to them. Zhong Xiaoyuan and Pei Jing looked at each other, both speechless. They didn't bother to ask Bai Yanning what was wrong. She was basically nowhere to be seen on weekends. When they asked her, she would just say "something happened". When they asked her again, she would just give perfunctory answers like "I went to meet a friend" or "it's a family matter".

Obviously he didn't want to talk to them any more.

After this incident, Zhong Xiaoyuan and Pei Xue never came to "put their hot faces on her cold butt" again. Although the three of them and Bai Yanning were in the same room, they were clearly separated and rarely even spoke to each other.

There is a famous rich second-generation named Qin Yunchuan in the Department of Economics and Trade. He drives a fluorescent green Maserati that makes a rumbling sound when running. He is nicknamed "Brother Maserati". After he met Bai Yanning for the first time at the beginning of the school year, he began to pursue her madly.

Bai Yanning neither took the initiative nor refused. She accepted many gifts from him intermittently and kept him company for a whole semester, without even letting him touch her hand twice.

Gu Yunzhen and Qin Yunchuan, who shared the same dormitory with her, grew up in the same compound and could be considered childhood sweethearts.

Because of this relationship, she knew a lot of "inside stories" that others didn't know. Thanks to her, every gift Bai Yanning received became known to everyone.

But she was really thick-skinned. No matter what others said, she still accepted the next gift without changing her expression and refused to agree to Qin Yunchuan's pursuit.

Qin Yunchuan had been ridiculed countless times by his buddies, until Bai Yanning lost contact during winter break and didn't reply to his messages for several days. He was furious and called her to ask, "Bai Yanning, are you kidding me?"

Bai Yanning remained silent on the other end of the phone. Qin Yunchuan was about to ask again when a "beep beep beep" sound came from the phone.

Bai Yanning hung up his phone.

Qin Yunchuan has pursued at least eighty girls. He is rich, generous, and good-looking, and no girl has ever played tricks on him like this.

But Bai Yanning's looks were really to his liking, and he once thought she was his "true love", so he foolishly pursued her for a whole semester.

He was so angry that he went out to drink. When others asked him what happened, he told them everything Bai Yanning had done to him.

After returning to school at the new semester, he no longer went to look for Bai Yanning. Everyone was puzzled and asked him what was wrong, and he told the truth.

Because she was his "true love," he had no intention of taking revenge on her. But he was not a saint, and he had no intention of nor obligation to keep her actions a secret.

Gossip spreads very quickly.

So since the second semester of her freshman year, Bai Yanning has been subjected to "cold violence" by almost everyone.

She used to dislike talking to people, but now hardly anyone would talk to her unless it was necessary.

Her reputation at University A has been ruined.

She still didn't seem to care much and was basically not in school every day except for attending classes and sleeping.

Someone saw her working in a convenience store opposite the side door of the No. 1 Middle School in the city.

Everyone was already full of ill will towards her. One day during a break, someone mentioned this incident, and someone nearby immediately said, "Bai Yanning accepted so many valuables from Qin Yunchuan, why is she still working? She's so poor."

"Look, she doesn't have many clothes. They're not brand names. Last winter, she only had those two down jackets that she kept changing between."

Gu Yunzhen covered her mouth and said mysteriously, "She also said she was from City C. That's hilarious. Didn't the teacher ask me to collect the information registration form last time? I took a look and saw that the address she filled in was a small town in a remote county town in City C. She only has one father, and he's unemployed."

"Ah, then why is she so arrogant every day, looking down on this and that."

"No wonder men accept everything they give them. They're just afraid of being poor."

"Hey, where's her mother?"

Gu Yunzhen gathered her hair to her chest with her hands and said with disdain, "Who knows? She must be dead, or she ran away. Isn't that the kind of news that always comes out? Women in the countryside can't stand poverty, so they abandon their children and run away, never to return."

"Looking at it this way, it's understandable that she had the nerve to accept so many things from Yunchuan. Her family was poor, and she had never seen anything good. She also had no mother to educate her, so she didn't know what propriety, righteousness, integrity, and shame were."
