I snagged a bargain in a melodramatic novel and became incredibly wealthy!

Anhe University, dormitory building, 7 PM.

"Wei Jing, are you moving out? Why so suddenly!"

A cute girl with a round face said that she was Wei Jing's roommate and also one of the girls she got along with well.

"Yes, my mom came and happens to live near the school, so she asked me to stay with her."

Wei Jing made up an excuse.

Xie Qiu, with bright red nail polish on, scoffed upon hearing this: "Could it be that you're living with a man?"

The round-faced girl was embarrassed. Why did Xie Qiu say that? It must have been unintentional, right?

She helped Wei Jing, who was clearly frozen, pack her luggage, and said in a low voice, "Wei Jing, you know she has a straightforward personality, so don't take it to heart."

Wei Jing didn't want to cause any more trouble. Since she was moving out anyway, she took a deep breath and smiled as she replied to the round-faced girl, "Yeah, I know."

Although she didn't have many things, she couldn't carry them all by herself after packing. The round-faced girl helped her carry them so that Wei Jing wouldn't have to make an extra trip.

Xie Qiu scoffed, "So stingy? You wouldn't be short of money to hire someone, would you? You're making your roommate help you move?"

The round-faced girl's cheeks were flushed red from Xie Qiu's anger. Her voice was soft and sweet, but with a hint of stubbornness: "I'm willing to help her move. If you're not willing, then don't say anything."

Xie Qiu: "I'm just trying to be helpful by reminding you that she's treating you like free labor, so don't be ungrateful—"

The round-faced girl didn't know how to argue, so she angrily pulled her luggage and said to Wei Jing, "Let's go, ignore her."

Wei Jing chuckled, her voice laced with sarcasm: "How dare someone wearing counterfeit goods say such things? At least I wouldn't pretend to be rich when I don't have the money."

After saying that, she pulled the stunned round-faced girl, and the two of them left the angry Xie Qiu behind.

Xie Qiu's clothes were indeed counterfeit. Although she was not short of money, she could not afford clothes that cost hundreds of thousands of yuan.

So when Wei Jing pointed out that the items she was wearing were counterfeit, she instinctively tensed up, caught off guard, and naturally found it difficult to refute.

Xie Qiu smashed things all over the table, startling her sleeping roommate awake. Her roommate instinctively yelled, "Are you crazy?! Why are you making such a racket?"

Then she lifted her curtains and saw Xie Qiu. She smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry, I was just having a dream. I dreamt about a noisy ghost, not you."

After saying that, she awkwardly closed the bed curtains and lay back down on the bed.

Xie Qiu's face turned red and then pale. Her roommate was better off not explaining at all; wasn't that just saying she was a noise-making ghost?

Downstairs in the dormitory.

The round-faced girl looked at the handsome and refined Shan Nan, her mouth forming an "O": "Wei Jing, is this your childhood sweetheart and fiancé? He looks like a classical beauty from an ancient painting!"

"How lucky you are!"

The round-faced girl handed her luggage to Shan Nan and helped Wei Jing carry her suitcase, muttering under her breath, "Your fiancé is really handsome. You should keep him away from school, or Xie Qiu will ruin things for you."

Her boyfriend was ruined by Xie Qiu, but that guy wasn't a good person either.

Xie Qiu always felt that her roommates' boyfriends were only dating her because they admired her, but her boyfriends didn't even know her before!

Xie Qiu wouldn't listen. She came up with some idea that it was for her own good, to prevent her from being deceived by a scumbag, so she should go to her boyfriend, tell him she liked him, and ask him to break up with the round-faced girl so she could be with him.

Although Xie Qiu is not a good person, she is indeed a beautiful school beauty.

The round-faced girl's boyfriend broke up with her, and she asked him why.

He said, "You're great, but she's prettier."

The round-faced girl cried in anger. She was soft-hearted and cried alone all night, not daring to tell anyone, keeping it all to herself.

However, she rarely contacted Xie Qiu after that, as she didn't want Wei Jing to follow in her footsteps.

But seeing how Shan Nan and Wei Jing got along, she realized she was overthinking it. Not everyone is a scumbag like her boyfriend, easily seduced by beauty.

"Yes, I know, I'll be careful."

Wei Jing felt that she wouldn't say that for no reason, but she didn't ask any more questions. If the round-faced girl didn't want to talk about it, it meant that this matter made her unhappy, so why would she ask so many questions?

"Hey, Wei Jing, why don't you believe me? I already told you he doesn't like you, he likes me, and he's only with you because it's convenient for him to get closer to you."

Xie Qiu came down for some reason and looked at Wei Jing in a sarcastic tone.

The round-faced girl's old and new grudges flared up all at once: "Are you just jealous of other people's happiness? Other people's boyfriends like you? Judging by your mediocre appearance, does that mean every man in the world likes you?"

Xie Qiu only heard the second half of the sentence, selectively ignoring the first half, and said, "I'm so beautiful, isn't it normal that everyone likes me?"

The round-faced girl hadn't expected that the girl would scold her so harshly, and she was stunned for a moment, her mouth opening and closing repeatedly, not knowing what to say.

This was the first time Wei Jing had ever seen such a shameless person. She silently glanced at Shan Nan.

Shan Nan: "..."

No wonder Jingjing wanted to move out; this roommate... is hard to describe.

None of the three were good with words, so they chose to ignore Xie Qiu standing to the side and waved goodbye.

Xie Qiu looked at the students who had begun to gather around them and said in a clear and loud voice, "Yuan Yi, are you taking your anger out on me because your boyfriend broke up with you?"

"I already told you that your boyfriend doesn't like you; he's only with you because he likes me."

"I'm trying to help you, why are you cursing me like this? So many people like me, is it my fault?"

"I only like Tu Heyi. Other men are not worth mentioning in my eyes compared to Heyi."

Where there is a madwoman, there must be a madman nearby.

Tu Heyi pushed the students aside, walked up to Xie Qiu, looked at Yuan Yi, and said with a cold smile, "Are you trying to get my attention by hurting Xie Qiu?"

"I'm telling you, you've succeeded. They'll tell you what happens when you like me."

After Tu Heyi finished speaking, he pulled Xie Qiu, who was crying with grievance, away.

A group of students who were obsessed with shipping the two characters surrounded Yuan Yi.

Yuan Yi looked at those people in fear, her lips trembling, shaking her head as she explained, "I...I didn't..."

"I don't like him..."

"How could anyone not like the school heartthrob? You're such a hypocrite!"

The piercing, noisy sounds were everywhere. Yuan Yi covered her head, curled up into a ball, and squatted on the ground.

I don't know who started it, but someone threw the trash they were carrying at her head.

Then things spiraled out of control; a thermos flask hit her on the forehead, and warm blood trickled down her round cheek.

She couldn't feel anything, only a chill running through her limbs.

...She didn't know what she had done wrong?

She didn't even know Xie Qiu's boyfriend!

Xie Qiu kept a closer eye on her boyfriend than anyone else; none of the other girls in her dorm had ever met him, nor did they know him.

The rumored school heartthrob isn't someone an ordinary person like her could easily meet, so why don't these people believe what she says?

"Which dorm are you from? Stop right there!"

A sharp shout scared away the students who were surrounding Yuan Yi.
