Chapter 244 - 103: [The Transformation of Lu Sisi] (7400 words)_4
Actually, there was no hatred or resentment. It was just that kind of mindset: if you’re too aloof to talk to us, why should we go out of our way to befriend you?
When Lu Sisi greeted her roommates in the morning, they were still a bit unaccustomed to it—in the beginning of this semester, the other girls in the dorm all felt that Lu Sisi had changed a lot.
Lu Sisi was no longer so cold and resistant towards people. She smiled more often and wasn’t as silent as before—sometimes she would even proactively talk to others, like saying she’d go to the canteen to buy food and if anyone wanted her to bring something back...things like that.
After all, they were young and there weren’t any deep grudges. Moreover, there wasn’t anyone with a strange personality in the dorm. After a few days of the new term, the relationship between Lu Sisi and her roommates had improved a bit.
They even speculated whether Lu Sisi had fallen in love, because with the nourishment of love, her personality had improved a lot.
To this question, Lu Sisi blushed but replied seriously, "
Yes, I have a boyfriend!"
In the morning, there was a big class, and after the class, Lu Sisi had agreed with her roommates to go to the small canteen to eat—the food there was tastier but a bit more expensive. However, since the winter break had just ended and the students had received a lot of New Year’s money, their wallets were still quite full.
As soon as she walked out of the classroom, Lu Sisi was stopped by a boy asking for her WeChat.
Her roommates watched with amusement while Lu Sisi blushed and seriously shook her head to refuse, "No need, I have a boyfriend."
The boy in front of her didn’t want to give up and said lightly with a smile, "Even if you have a boyfriend, we can still add each other on WeChat. After all, we’re just making friends, and we’re classmates at the same school."
"Really, there’s no need." Lu Sisi shook her head and left with her roommates.
Then, while eating at the small canteen, similar scenes happened two more times—boys came up asking to add her on WeChat.
Although Lu Sisi refused, she was still somewhat confused.
She knew she was quite good-looking—she wasn’t stupid.
In modern society, it’s not like the primitive days where there are no mirrors or mobile phones.
If someone looks good or not, they can check in the mirror or compare with others.
That "unaware of one’s beauty" thing only exists in fantasy novels.
Previously, because Lu Sisi always kept a low profile and tried to minimize her presence.
Plus, with some special aura or fate, there were actually very few boys who approached her in school. There were only two incidents when she first started freshman year, and very few after that.
She had no idea what happened today. In just one morning, it happened three times?
After eating at the small canteen, her roommates dragged her to a popular milk tea shop near the back gate of the school to buy milk tea.
Lu Sisi thought about it and didn’t want to refuse their kindness—Chen Yan had previously advised her that it’s best to maintain a good relationship with her roommates, just to make the four years more comfortable.
However, remembering the three incidents earlier, she pulled out a mask from her pocket and put it on—considering the flu was quite serious recently, many people were wearing masks, so it didn’t seem odd.
That popular milk tea shop always had a long queue. As the girls walked up, they saw a long line in front of the shop—estimating from usual cases, they’d have to wait at least half an hour to an hour.
While her roommates sighed and complained, Lu Sisi turned around and unexpectedly got recognized by an acquaintance.
"Hey? It’s you!"
Skinny Xiaozhao, President Zhao Shanhe, looked surprised seeing Lu Sisi standing there.
He was here with his staff standing in line. Turning around, he saw a familiar figure. Although Lu Sisi was wearing a mask, after taking a serious look, he recognized her!
Then, recalling the time Brother Chen Yan kicked her into the fountain, Xiaozhao came up to greet her.
"Oh, it’s you." Lu Sisi recognized Xiaozhao.
Knowing he was Chen Yan’s friend, she immediately took off her mask and responded kindly, "Hey, fancy seeing you here."
After exchanging a few words, Xiaozhao learned that Lu Sisi and her friends were here for milk tea.
"Hey! You should’ve said so! How could I let you stand in line?"
Xiaozhao, with a hearty wave, called over a chubby guy in his crew. Moments later, he brought several cups of milk tea, handing one to each of Lu Sisi and her roommates.
Lu Sisi hurriedly tried to pay, but Xiaozhao refused, "Oh, I don’t need to pay for this milk tea. The shop hires us to stand in line to generate hype. Besides our pay, they give us a few free milk tea vouchers."
After a few polite exchanges, Lu Sisi had no choice but to accept and thanked him before leaving with her roommates.
As she walked away, Xiaozhao’s chubby subordinate watched her back for a while, then whispered, "Brother Zhao..."
"What’s up?"
"That girl." The chubby guy pointed at Lu Sisi’s back.
"What’s up with the girl?" Xiaozhao was puzzled.
"Last time, you asked me to buy food from the canteen and deliver it to Brother Chen Yan at that remote rental house...I told you that Brother Chen Yan was with a girl there."
The chubby guy giggled as he talked.
Xiaozhao was initially stunned, then suddenly clapped his thigh, widening his eyes as he looked at Lu Sisi’s receding figure, "Is it... her?"
"Yes, I saw her then! I wouldn’t mistake it. The girl with Brother Chen Yan was her."
Whoa!
Xiaozhao was dumbfounded!!
What’s going on?
Brother Chen Yan kicked the girl into the fountain! She cried and ran off, utterly heartbroken!
And now, they’re dating?!
What kind of new dating technique is this?!
And... it actually works?!
Xiaozhao’s eyes turned as he thought of the girl he fancied in school...
Should I give it a try too?
·
Leaving the milk tea shop, her roommates chattered, asking about Xiaozhao’s identity. Lu Sisi had no choice but to answer, "He’s my boyfriend’s classmate."
It was just a free cup of milk tea, not worth much, but it somehow brought Lu Sisi closer to her roommates.
Before going back to school, one of her roommates, who was rather fond of money, wanted to try her luck at a lottery shop they passed by.
No one minded such trifles. The girls giggled their way in, then the money-saver bought 100 yuan worth of scratch cards.
The other girls didn’t buy any. The money-saver girl casually asked Lu Sisi, "Sisi, do you want to try your luck too?"
Lu Sisi wasn’t interested but recalled Chen Yan’s advice on maintaining good roommate relations and decided not to refuse. She paid 30 yuan for a "Dragon Country Red" scratch card.
The money-saver girl spent 100 yuan and won 20, sighing as she shook her head.
Lu Sisi casually took a coin and scratched a few times...
A few seconds later, the revealed pattern on the scratch zone made Lu Sisi’s eyes widen in shock. She stood there, stunned.
The money-saver girl noticed Lu Sisi’s strange expression, peered at the card, and suddenly screamed in delight.
"Wow!! Sisi won! Two thousand yuan! Two thousand!!"
