With global currency devaluation, I'll wear these back and take my whole family flying!

On her first night, Shen Ci did not sleep well. Subconsciously, she felt fear, afraid that she would wake up and find that it was all just a dream.

So when she woke up the next day, she felt a little dizzy.

After a quick wash and tidying up, the first thing she did upon returning to school was to find her advisor.

"Change dorm rooms?"

In the corridor, Li Jianguo, holding a stack of books, looked at Shen Ci with some surprise and asked, "Why?"

"I don't get along with my roommate. Director Li, could you please ask the staff in the logistics department to help me change my dorm room?"

In Li Jianguo's mind, Shen Ci was an outstanding student. After the college entrance examination, the school's admissions office personally went to Shen Ci's home to persuade him to be specially admitted.

With a score of 714 on the college entrance exam, you can choose any university in the country without hesitation.

Therefore, he has always attached great importance to Shen Ci's affairs.

He adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and asked in a low, serious voice, "Did your roommates bully you?"

Bully?

That's all from a past life.

Shen Ci sighed: "We just don't get along. Director Li, don't ask me anything else."

Seeing Shen Ci's reaction, Li Jianguo didn't press further, simply nodding and saying, "Alright, I'll go ask around for you later and send you a WeChat message when I get any news. Remember, you must tell me if anything happens, okay?"

Shen Ci smiled and nodded: "I know, thank you, Director Li."

After checking the class schedule in the class group, Shen Ci found that she had no classes today. Coincidentally, her younger sister, Shen Li, sent her a message.

Sis, I've settled in at school. Freshman military training starts in a couple of days. Are you free these days?

My younger sister, Shen Li, is a freshman this year, but unlike me, she is an art student who was admitted to Huaxia Film Academy with a score among the top 50 in the country.

I'm free today, let's have lunch together this afternoon. I'll come find you.

After leaving the school, Shen Ci took a taxi directly to MixC Shopping Mall.

At the Apple Store, Shen Ci couldn't help but feel a little dazed looking at the price tags on all kinds of digital products, and even found it a bit funny.

The latest top-of-the-line iPhone 16 is priced at 1.9888 yuan.

Laptop computer, priced at 1.2888 yuan.

There wasn't anything in sight that cost more than ten yuan.

She bought the whole set—phone, computer, tablet, and headphones—for less than five yuan in total.

Then she went to a top luxury brand and bought four sets of high-end skincare products, after which she took a taxi directly to her sister's school.

In dormitory room 507 of the Huaxia Film Academy, bursts of laughter from young girls could be heard.

Did you see those boys from Class 8 of our department this morning?

"You mean those guys on the basketball court this morning? I saw them, I saw them! They're so handsome! That guy named He Chaoyang became famous for his looks before the college entrance exam. I even followed him. I didn't expect him to be even more handsome in person!"

"Right? It has to be our department. I specifically observed the directing and broadcasting departments, and they were a bit lacking!"

"You're being picky? There are plenty of beautiful girls in our department!"

Three girls huddled together, eating snacks and discussing the handsome guys among the freshmen, creating a lively and harmonious atmosphere.

Only Shen Li leaned against the bed, silently fiddling with her phone.

"Shen Li, come down here, have some potato chips and chat with us!"

"Yeah, the potato chips Mina bought are really delicious. They're an international brand. Come and try them!"

Shen Li's two roommates warmly invited her to eat, but she simply shook her head and softly said thank you, "You guys eat, I'm afraid of gaining weight."

"You're so thin, why are you afraid of gaining weight?"

"Exactly, you don't need to control your weight now. Wait until freshmen military training starts in a couple of days, then you'll lose weight. Hurry up and get down."

Shen Li was about to refuse, but Sun Yuan reached out and pulled her: "Hey, don't be like that. The three of us are all E people. You have to fit in with us, otherwise it will seem like we are isolating you."

Helpless, Shen Li could only get out of bed.

It wasn't that she didn't want to fit in; she just felt inferior deep down.

Besides her, her three roommates were all locals from Longcheng, and their families were all well-off. When they first enrolled, they all tacitly prepared gifts for each other.

Mina gave everyone a luxury bracelet, which she checked and found cost a little over 40 cents.

Sun Yuan gave each person a pair of sunglasses, which were also brand-name and cost nearly two cents.

Wang Chuhan prepared a beauty salon card, worth 38 cents.

She was the only one who prepared local specialties from Shenzhen and Hong Kong, and it only cost her less than three cents in total.

Although they all seemed happy to receive the gifts, Shen Li couldn't help but feel embarrassed in comparison.

It wasn't that her roommates isolated her; rather, subconsciously, she isolated herself.

"Shen Li, has your personality always been like this?"

Sun Yuan took the initiative to talk to her, wanting to learn more about her.

Shen Li nodded and said softly, "Well, I have an older sister and a younger brother. I'm the second oldest. In families with three children, the second oldest is usually the most outgoing, so I've never been good at communicating with others."

Wang Chuhan was slightly surprised upon hearing this: "Huh? You're so beautiful, how come your family ignores you?"

"My sister is much prettier than me."

"Really?" Wang Chuhan asked in disbelief, exclaiming in surprise, "Then your sister must be a fairy!"

Shen Li pursed her thin lips slightly and nodded: "In my eyes, she is a fairy."

Upon hearing this, her roommates exchanged amused glances, all assuming that Shen Li was a sister-obsessed person.

Zhao Meina glanced at Shen Li and said with a smile, "Actually, the acting circle really likes your type of beauty. You have a delicate face and a touch of classical beauty. You should be beautiful in both ancient and modern costumes. But your personality won't work. If a production crew came to our school to pick people, would you dare to go?"

The other two nodded in agreement: "Mina is right. You have the resources, but you also need to be able to seize the opportunity."

Shen Li listened obediently without arguing, because she knew her roommate was right and meant well for her.

Shen Ci had actually been outside the dormitory for quite a while. Hearing a lot of noise inside, she stood at the door and eavesdropped for a while.

My sister's roommates all seem to be nice girls, much luckier than me.

Seeing that the time was right, she gently knocked on the door.

"Who?"

Wang Chuhan got up to open the door, and her eyes lit up as soon as the door opened.

What a beautiful older sister.

"Who are you looking for?" The voice became noticeably higher as soon as she spoke.

"sister?"

Shen Li was startled when she saw her sister appear at the door, and blurted out instinctively, "Why did you suddenly come?"

The roommates exchanged surprised glances.

Is this Shen Li's fairy sister?

That's truly ethereal!

Wang Chuhan quickly ushered them in, and Shen Ci handed the things in her hand to the girls, saying, "I brought you all gifts, a set of skincare products, I hope you like them."
