Every time a dish was ordered, he would pause to comment on it. Jiang Ding was also an experienced man, and the two of them sang in unison, perfectly interpreting the feeling of young masters with rich experience in ordering food.

The three remaining female class leaders of Class 1 at the table had a gleam in their eyes, as if they were attracted by their temperament.

As for Xu Qiubai's table, there was no progress in ordering food. The menu was in Liu Xinyi's hand, and no one knew what she was looking at. She hadn't ordered a single dish for a long time.

"Sergeant, how about we just click on the point on our side?" Ruan Bo pretended to be cool like a surveillance camera while not forgetting to observe the situation here.

Xu Qiubai was not in a hurry and just sat there observing.

Xu Qiubai was not sure what Liu Xinyi was thinking, but he could tell at a glance what Zhao Da and Qian Xuejia next to her were thinking at the moment.

I was shocked by the prices of the dishes here.

Especially Zhao Da, she clenched her hands on the table.

Ruan Bo and Jiang Ding on the other end basically ordered the more expensive items. According to their ordering method, the meal per person would be estimated to be around 2000 yuan.

The student conditions at Tunghai University are good, but not everyone can afford to spend 2000 yuan on a meal.

According to Xu Qiubai, the tuition fees for each major at Tunghai University are different. Mechanical majors and other engineering majors are the lowest, at just over 20 yuan a year.

The most expensive and most prestigious major, Finance, has an annual tuition of nearly 50 yuan.

And there is a magical rule in Tunghai University, that is, if you change your major within the school, the tuition fee will remain unchanged and will be charged according to the standards of the original major.

This rule creates a very interesting ecosystem.

Many students from poorer families aim to change their majors from the moment they enter school. They choose a major with the lowest tuition when they enroll, and then transfer to better and more expensive majors later.

According to Xu Qiubai's rough observation over the past month, a large number of these girls majoring in mechanical engineering may be aiming to change their major.

Since you have to change your major, it means that your family conditions are not good enough.

The tuition fee of 20 yuan per year is actually similar to studying abroad. There are many families who can afford it, but doubling it makes a real difference.

Zhao Da and Qian Xuejia are obviously the former who want to take a roundabout way. Judging from their clothes and appearance, their monthly living expenses may be only four or five thousand.

Xu Qiubai even boldly estimated that there were no more than five people in the room who could easily afford a meal costing 2000 yuan.

The reason why others didn't express it now is probably because they didn't have the chance to look at the menu carefully.

The unhappy expression on the guy on the other side of Jiang Ding was the best proof.

And there is a very serious problem before us. In this situation where everyone eats at separate tables but pays for their meals in the end, the table that orders the cheaper dishes will suffer a huge loss.

But if they don't want to lose money, they will raise the per capita level again.

It can be said that Jiang Ding and Ruan Bo’s pretentious behavior is actually quite selfish, and they do not consider the feelings of everyone present at all.

Just as the situation was going on, Jiang Ding and Ruan Bo suddenly put down their menus and said in unison:

"Brothers present, let's discuss something. You see, there are five beautiful women at the dinner today. It's really inappropriate for us men to go out to dinner and have sex with girls.

How about this, let’s not count the girls’ share, and we guys will split the meal money, ok?”

Hearing this, Xu Qiubai suddenly smiled with relief.

So I was waiting here.

What disgusted him the most was the "being generous to others" part.

At this time, other people had not reacted yet, but Xu Qiubai saw a subconscious reaction called "forced smile" on the face of the guy on Jiang Ding's right.

Buddy, remember this: your parents spent a lot of money to send you to this school not for you to be a cuckold.

Xu Qiubai slowly stood up from his chair, looked directly at Jiang Ding and Ruan Bo, and said in a clear and melodious voice:

"I object."

Chapter 46 Because I am a Subsidized Student

Xu Qiubai stood up and woke up the other people in the private room, and they all looked at him.

"Cough cough, cough cough——"

Liu Xinyi actually wanted to take action, but before she could complete the action, she picked up a napkin on the table and started coughing.

Xu Qiubai glanced at her, confirmed that her cough was not serious, and then returned his gaze to Jiang Ding and Ruan Bo.

After the idea of ​​"Men A, Women Free" was proposed, people in the private room had different reactions.

Let’s start with Zhao Da, who is closest to Xu Qiubai.

When Jiang Ding and Ruan Bo's suggestion of man A and woman free came to her mind, there was obvious joy on her face. Someone offered to pay for her lunch, and the awkward feeling she had before disappeared instantly.

Attitude is recognition.

Then came the five members of the basketball team. When they heard what Ruan Bojiangding had done, they felt a little disgusted and their brows furrowed one after another.

But in Xu Qiubai's opinion, their main dissatisfaction was that they couldn't stand seeing those two people showing off, and they were not really targeting the main event of "Man A, Woman Free".

They didn't look at the menu, so they didn't know how expensive two tables of food would be if they ordered so much. They still looked at the problem with the expectation that it would be 1000 yuan per person, and 1500 yuan after the women were exempted.

Normally a pair of sneakers costs more than 2000 yuan, and spending 1500 yuan on meals is a bit painful but not too much. I still have to consider my face in front of the opposite sex.

But the fact is that the price has doubled now, and each boy has to pay 3000 yuan after the girls are exempted.

In Xu Qiubai's impression, the only one in the basketball team who could barely afford 3000 yuan for a meal was Song Shiyu, who had a monthly living expense of yuan.

But don't forget, Song Shiyu had already agreed that he would pay for Xu Qiubai's share.

That's 6000.

If these 6000 were paid, Xu Qiubai would not know how he would get through October.

But Xu Qiubai knew that if he didn't stand up and object at this time, Song Shiyu would still pay the bill with great reluctance when the final bill came, and he wouldn't even show it on his face.

When it comes to brotherhood, Song Shiyu definitely gets full marks.

Therefore, the more this happened, the more Xu Qiubai couldn't let his brothers be taken advantage of.

As for the remaining people at the other table, the three girls were the beneficiaries. When they heard that they could have a free meal, they were obsessed with the heroic aura of the "Double Celestial Dragon Bond". The boys simply followed the herd mentality.

He now has a little understanding of how Ruan Bo and Jiang Ding's tactics work.

These two "Dragon men" did it on purpose. They acted very high-spirited and knew everything about the dishes like the back of their hands, leaving a cool first impression in front of the girls.

Then he took advantage of the fact that the boys at Tunghai University generally care about their reputation, and deliberately proposed "Men A, women free" after the order was placed. Normally, no one would stand up to object at this time.

After the meal, when the amount of consumption has been decided, if a boy comes out and regrets it, it will look very low, and no boy will take this risk.

But paying the money obediently does not mean doing it willingly. There will always be people who show a bit of pain.

Now it is the turn of the two "Dragon Men" to perform. Their families are well-off and they don't care about the money, so the carefree temperament they show when paying is completely different from that of others. Coupled with their previous high-spirited attitude and their initiative to propose "Men A, Women Free", they can immediately elevate their image to the extreme.

Use the lowest cost, act as powerful as possible, and secretly step on others. What a good plan.

It’s a pity that they missed a lot of things.

Among the 18 people who came to eat, there was an "oddball" named Xu Qiubai.

In my previous life, I had seen many similar "hook-style" cases due to my intensive Internet surfing. I also happened to have eaten here a few days ago, so I knew the prices of many dishes very well.

Also, having witnessed the gradual collapse of the "dog-licking economy" in another world, his mentality has already become extremely mature.

So Xu Qiubai stood up without hesitation.

"I object too!"

Before Xu Qiubai could take any further action, Wa Rong stood up by holding the table.

He was the one who hated Jiang Ding and Ruan Bo the most among the people present. Now that Xu Qiubai stood up to start a fight, he stood up without thinking.

With Brother Bai here, there’s nothing to be afraid of!

Then, Xu Qiubai continued speaking.

He looked at Xiao Zhou who was waiting on the side and said, "Help us calculate how much the two tables would cost if we follow the standard of that table?"

Suddenly becoming the focus of the whole audience, Xiao Zhou didn't react, but Sister Liu at another table reacted quickly and smiled and reported a number:

“About 3 yuan.”

"37,000?? Then each boy has to pay more than 3,000?!"

Song Shiyu quickly calculated the amount after sharing and his expression changed slightly.

Xu Qiubai turned around and pointed two fingers at him. Song Shiyu took a second to understand.

He gets double.

This time the slight change in expression was not enough.

Xu Qiubai changed his gestures, signaling him to stay calm.

The other boys were also more or less shocked by the amount of money to be shared, and subconsciously began to observe the reactions of others.

Jiang Ding glanced around the room, then turned to look at Ruan Bo, as if asking him with his eyes - "Who is this person?"

In just an hour or so, the tacit understanding between the two Tianlong people was established. Ruan Bo immediately took the main seat and talked to Xu Qiubai:

"3000 yuan per person is a bit much, but since everyone is attending Tunghai University, there shouldn't be much pressure, right?"

Ruan Bo's half-praise, half-criticism remarks once again grasped the psychology of many people present.

But Xu Qiubai didn't buy it.

"I'm under pressure, is that not okay?" Xu Qiubai asked back calmly.

"But our annual tuition is more than 20 yuan." Ruan Bo smiled, as if he was happy to see Xu Qiubai take the initiative to make a fool of himself.

"My tuition is just over 10,000 yuan."

"Huh? Why?" Ruan Bo was confused, and everyone present except Song Shiyu and Liu Xinyi was also confused.

“I’m a subsidy student.”

"What is a subsidized student?"

Ruan Bo still didn't understand, and it was obvious that he had no idea about Tunghai University's system for poor students.

"It's a special admission. Only one is admitted from the entire school every year. The tuition fee is reduced to one twentieth and all is paid with a zero-interest loan, just like... well, a poor student."

Kang Qianhui, the psychological counselor sitting next to Ruan Bo, was muttering to herself on the phone.

"Is there any such thing?" Ruan Boyu was enlightened by the science.
