Chapter 264: Thank-You Gift
Zhu Qing slightly lifted her eyelids and tugged a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, her voice a bit cold, "How can literature be measured by money?"
Having said that, she seemed to have lost interest in talking. She took back the newspaper from Cheng Aihua’s hands, tucked it into her own book, and then leaned against the bed frame, picking up a book to read, showing no interest in talking to anyone.
Everyone then dispersed.
Tan Yan was somewhat embarrassed by her sarcastic tone and then felt a bit annoyed.
In this dorm, half of the students came from families that were barely making ends meet. Only those like Zhu Qing, who came from a bit wealthier families, always carried themselves as if they were above worldly concerns.
As Tan Yan turned toward her own bed, she saw Yang PeiMin wearing a new outfit, a light beige trench coat that looked airy and elegant on her, extremely beautiful. Tan Yan’s eyes were severely stricken with jealousy. It was outrageous, being dressed so flamboyantly even after getting married—she wondered what her husband thought of it.
Yang PeiMin was unaware that her new clothes were grating on some people’s nerves. Seeing that everyone had dispersed, she quickly escaped from Cheng Aihua’s grasp to take a nap.
This weekend, Yang PeiMin had to return to the military region because Qiao Ying had pulled in an order for her—five sets of cosmetics; she had to go back and get it done.
