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

"Can...is it okay?"

Jiang Li's clear, bright eyes widened, and she asked with a hint of apprehension and anticipation.

Caiyi smiled and nodded: "Of course, our dorm room is very big, more than enough for you."

Jiang Li sniffed, holding back the tears welling up in her eyes: "Thank you, teacher."

She picked up her clothes and went inside to change, while Caiyi tidied up her things outside.

Jiang Li had very little stuff, all packed into one suitcase, but she had many books.

The books were old and bore the marks of time.

Cai Yi flipped through the book; it was covered in dense notes. She probably didn't have as many notes as she had in the three years of preparing for the college entrance exam.

Caiyi carefully packed it into her suitcase.

After Jiang Li came out, she said a little shyly, "Teacher, I can do it myself."

Caiyi didn't force her; she stood beside her watching her pack and chatted with her casually.

"You really enjoy reading?"

Jiang Li nodded and said, "My family is poor, and it's rare for us to see books. These were all brought to me by my neighbors."

"I cherish every opportunity to read a book."

"Every time I read a book, I gain a new insight."

"Books can lift me out of my current poverty and enrich my spirit."

"Of course, the main reason is that I want to give my parents a better life."

"For us poor families, education is the only shortcut."

Jiang Li has worked before and knows how tough it is to work. Many high-paying jobs require either a degree or experience.

The process of gaining experience is very difficult, much more difficult than studying.

Caiyi: "Then...why did you choose this place?"

As soon as he asked the question, Caiyi realized he had made a foolish mistake.

Jiang Li: "Scholarship, for the scholarship of this school."

The school's scholarship is one million, which is no small sum.

For Jiang Li's warm but impoverished family, this can greatly reduce the pressure on the household.

Jiang Li comes from a typical family where the female protagonist suffers.

Her family relied solely on her mother's hard work to make ends meet. Her father was ill, and her younger brother and she were both in school. Everything rested on her mother's shoulders.

It was too tough, she couldn't bear to leave, and she couldn't bear to. Studying was the easiest thing to do. After weighing the pros and cons, she chose this school with a high scholarship.

It was here that she first discovered how extreme the gap between the rich and the poor could be.

The million-dollar scholarship was an astronomical sum for her, but for the wealthy students at the school, it was just a dinner.

She thought it was normal for rich kids to have bad tempers, after all, they were spoiled by their families...

She was trying to be tolerant, but the books she had read told her that what they were doing was wrong... She couldn't tolerate it.

So she chose to fight back.

After all, her goal was the scholarship, not to curry favor with these rich kids.

The requirements for receiving the scholarship are clearly stated: the student who ranks first in the grade is eligible for the scholarship.

She was very confident, or rather, she was very confident because her competitors were this group of wealthy young men.

Back in high school, she wouldn't have had such strong confidence, because everyone worked hard and cherished what they had.

But these people... seem ridiculous.

Jiang Li couldn't possibly consider them as her rivals.

She found them utterly ridiculous, but she still felt wronged. Fortunately, the teachers at this school were very kind.

Jiang Li followed obediently behind Cai Yi with a smile.

Carrying her suitcase, she glanced disdainfully at the group of female students at the door, her voice clear and forceful: "I truly feel sorry for you."

"There are many worthwhile things to do in a person's life."

"But all you do is use it to bully people, how ridiculous!"

The female students blushed with anger, but were powerless to refute her.

The girls' dormitory was far from the teachers' dormitory, and when they walked along the road, they were pointed at and talked about by many students.

"Ugh, how stingy!"

"There isn't even a car, and we have to walk?"

“Look at her two suitcases, they look cheap and they’re so worn out.”

These kinds of comments were heard constantly, and some people even maliciously tripped them up.

Caiyi nimbly stepped down.

She ignored the scream.

Jiang Li followed suit, either slapping away anything blocking her way or stomping on it and then running it over with her suitcase.

This feeling made Jiang Li feel completely comfortable, and she felt no guilt whatsoever.

She used to think that using violence to coerce people was wrong, but she found that sometimes, appropriate violence could make her feel much more at ease.

They didn't make much of a fuss, but the students kept causing trouble.

Wen Ye and the others stood in front of Cai Yi and the others.

Wen Ye chose to be selectively blind, unable to see the wealth at the very front.

His flirtatious eyes fell on Jiang Li. The girl's hair was wet and stuck to her shoulders, with water droplets still dripping onto her school uniform, making her look rather disheveled.

This did not achieve the effect he expected. He said smugly, "As long as you beg for mercy from me, I will make those people let you go."

Jiang Li gave a cold laugh: "You're dreaming!"

"I will never admit defeat to a self-righteous, selfish, despicable, and utterly worthless scoundrel like you!"

Caiyi found it amazing that watching the righteous girls in TV dramas and experiencing it herself were completely different feelings.

She felt that Jiang Li was shining brightly!

In comparison, Wen Ye looks utterly detestable.

"Ha, I'm being kind and letting you off the hook, but since you don't appreciate it, then you'll have to bear the consequences! I'll personally target you!"

Wen Ye angrily threw down a sentence and left.

The other students didn't dare to target Jiang Li either. Since Young Master Wen had said he would take action himself, who would dare to compete with him?

Shen Changfeng chuckled: "Jiang Li, you're the first person to make Wen Ye this angry."

Minghe: "I hope you can hold on a little longer."

Tan Shaojie scrutinized Jiang Li for a moment, his eyes filled with admiration, and said, "You're so beautiful, why do you have to pick a fight with A-Ye?"

"How about this, if you agree to be my girlfriend, I'll make sure Ah Ye stops targeting you, what do you think?"

Jiang Li: "Who would agree to that? You have time to flirt with me here, you might as well go to the hospital to see if you have any diseases!"

"After all, the book says that people who have many affairs are prone to getting diseases, especially since you are a well-known playboy!"

Jiang Li's last sentence was delivered in a sarcastic tone.

Tan Shaojie's face turned ashen with anger: "Then I really want to see how you're going to stay at Lia University under A Ye's targeting."

Jiang Li: "Then open your eyes wide and see how I managed to stay at Lia University until graduation!"

After saying that, she grabbed Caiyi's hand and left.

Caiyi was pulled along by her, and they walked briskly for two hours before arriving at the teachers' dormitory.

Jiang Li felt like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, but she hid it very well.

She didn't show it, but she had a very strong sense of self-esteem.
