Seeing Li Xiaofeng like this, Cao Jinpeng felt that something was wrong. After thinking for a long time, he finally asked with some doubt: "Isn't your high school strict? How come you have time to play these things!"

My family won't even buy me a computer, they're afraid it will interfere with my studies. Oh, by the way, you have no one at home to supervise you, that's quite enviable!

"I started playing this game after the college entrance exam. I think I have some talent for it. This game is all played online. When my other two roommates come, we can have a match together!"

Li Xiaofeng told a small lie, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to explain himself.

This is all because I played games in internet cafes during my breaks from working in my previous life. Take StarCraft for example, it's impossible to get the hang of it so easily without at least half a year of experience.

Going to an internet cafe to relax was Li Xiaofeng's only form of entertainment at the time, and it was also an expense he could afford.

In fact, playing games is always the most cost-effective form of entertainment for ordinary people.

"Sure, we're all brothers now, so it's all easy to talk about!" Cao Jinpeng's tone seemed to carry a hint of perfunctoriness.

At that moment, another roommate arrived.

"Zhendong, it's you? Are you also from room 402?"

"Yeah, Brother Cao, we're brothers together again! Knowing we're in the same class, I specially asked the counselor to arrange for us to be in the same dorm room!"

"Great! Let's go have a good drink together, brothers!"

"That is required!"

"......"

The two chatted incessantly, briefly introducing themselves to Li Xiaofeng. After learning about his family situation, they didn't pay any attention to Li Xiaofeng and continued their conversation.

Then, the last roommate came in, and the two of them stopped chatting.

Following the management style of previous students, everyone got to know each other and then arranged themselves into groups according to age.

Cao Jinpeng is the eldest, Lü Zhendong is the second eldest, Li Xiaofeng is the third eldest, and the youngest roommate, Cheng Zhiyuan, who arrived last, is the fourth eldest.

After some introductions, it was revealed that the eldest brother, Cao Jinpeng, came from a real estate business, while the second brother, Lü Zhendong, came from a construction company. The two families had a very close working relationship, which explained why they were so familiar with each other and had a good relationship.

The fourth brother, Cheng Zhiyuan, comes from a family in the entertainment industry, the kind that runs nightclubs, bars, and KTVs, so they must be very wealthy.

Li Xiaofeng felt like he had won the lottery; all his roommates were rich kids.

Although they had just met, Li Xiaofeng could tell that Lü Zhendong was Cao Jinpeng's henchman, and Cheng Zhiyuan was chubby and always had a smile on his face, which made him seem like a wolf in sheep's clothing.

However, to Li Xiaofeng's dismay and embarrassment, the three people seemed to treat him as if he were invisible. They chatted for a while, then left and disappeared without a trace.

Li Xiaofeng guessed that the group of them had gone out for a get-together to catch up.

The main reason for not including him is that he may not be of much value in the eyes of those people, and there is no need to waste feelings on him.

There are certain barriers to entry for high-end social circles.

However, Li Xiaofeng was already mentally prepared for this before entering the school.

In his previous life, he first worked on construction sites, then took on contract work, and also did sales, getting used to the faces of the rich.

That's a nice way of putting it; it makes the time of those rich people seem very precious.

If you have no value, no one has time to listen to your nonsense, and no one has time to argue with you. They all have this kind of attitude.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, the group returned, chatting and laughing, completely drunk.

Seeing Li Xiaofeng resting in bed, Cao Jinpeng seemed somewhat apologetic, but that feeling vanished in an instant, and he immediately adopted a haughty and superior attitude.

"Third brother, don't overthink it. We're not taking you because it's for your own good. Your family isn't well-off, and if you go out with us all the time, the expenses might be too much for you!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and nodded, saying calmly, "I know!"

Lu Zhendong chimed in, "Third brother, to be honest, I'm going to say something that might not be pleasant to hear, but don't take it to heart. Given your family situation, you should be living in a regular dormitory."

Good grief, you sold your house to come to university to eat, drink, and have fun. How can you face your adoptive father?

And all your belongings, even your shoes are Nikes! If your adoptive father were still alive, he'd beat you to death!

I was looked down upon.

It seems this lackey is no ordinary person; he's quite skilled at arguing, knows how to stand on the moral high ground, and understands the disgusting tactic of "I'm doing this for your own good."

Li Xiaofeng wasn't as furious as everyone expected. Instead, he calmly said, "Second brother, do you look down on people from ordinary families like me?"

"No, I didn't mean that!"

"I think it's just a difference in consumption philosophy. Why should ordinary families have to buy the cheapest things?"

You know, many inexpensive things these days break down easily. Buying new ones after they break can actually add up to a lot of money, while good products can last for years, so it's actually quite cost-effective all in all!

Lu Zhendong opened his mouth to refute, but when he did, he found himself at a loss for words.

Li Xiaofeng sneered and continued in a nonchalant tone, "Besides, I only bought commonly used daily necessities. They are a bit expensive, but if you use them for a year, it won't cost much more each month."

Another example is my bed sheets and duvet cover. Pure cotton is comfortable to sleep on, and the silk duvet is lightweight. Our dorm is convenient, which is more conducive to studying, isn't it?

Seeing that Lü Zhendong was struggling, Cao Jinpeng interjected with a hint of disdain: "Third brother, don't talk so righteously. Vanity is vanity. Don't pretend to be so high and mighty."

"Still studying? You're already in university, what's there to learn? What were you doing in high school? You're here to date and play games!"

"Brother Cao, college is definitely much easier than high school, but if you don't graduate, I don't believe your dad won't beat you up!"

At this moment, Cheng Zhiyuan, who had been silently watching the commotion from the sidelines, stepped forward and cheerfully tried to smooth things over: "Hey, hey, we're all classmates, and we'll be spending four years together, so let's not make things unpleasant!"

Then, Cheng Zhiyuan said to Li Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, how can you be so insensible? The eldest and second eldest brothers were only saying a few words to you for your own good. Look at you, all red and angry!"

This is biased.

Li Xiaofeng ignored him and instead addressed Cao Jinpeng and Lü Zhendong, saying, "Eldest brother, second brother, everyone is equal. You have no right to dictate my spending habits."

My family isn't well-off, but I can earn my own money, and my current level of spending is within my means!

Cao Jinpeng said irritably, "Fine, fine, let's make this clear first: if you squander all the money yourself, don't ask us for loans!"
