Chapter 315 - Being Rich is Indeed Different
Hua Xiaoli simply could not understand why Zi Xuan did not believe that the person was Zi Yi.
It was similar to how Zi Xuan did not understand why Hua Xiaoli insisted on saying that an exemplary scholar was that idiotic sister of hers.
In order to convince Zi Xuan, she even said, “There’s a photo of her on M.Uni’s forum. We are unable to log in since we do not have our student ID yet. If we can log in, I will immediately show you the evidence.”
Zi Xuan maintained her incredulous expression. “Then we’ll talk after you have the photos.”
Hua Xiaoli looked at Zi Xuan for several seconds and in the end, she could only say out of helplessness, “Sigh, alright then. I know you won’t believe it unless you see her yourself. If I had not seen her personally that day, I would not believe it too. I hope you won’t be too surprised when you see her.”
Speaking of this, she suddenly lowered her voice and said, “I heard that… perhaps it’s that triad boss who arranged that independent enrollment examination for her.”
Zi Xuan’s expression sank. “Where do you think M.Uni is? If that’s the case, do you think it’s safe for us to even study here?”
Hua Xiaoli did not expect to be told off by Zi Xuan and felt unhappy deep down. Her eyes kept checking out Zi Xuan’s apartment and in the end, she said with an envious expression, “Being rich is indeed different. Zi Xuan, you must have spent quite the sum for this apartment?”
“It’s alright I guess.” At the thought of how many racing cars Zi Yi bought in a year, the money she spent, compared to her, was considered very little.
Hua Xiaoli was even more envious.
It would be great if she could live in such a high-class apartment.
Thinking of this, the way she looked at Zi Xuan had changed.
…
On the 27th, all the freshmen received the class they were allocated to and the arrangement of the military training.
The School of Chinese Language and School of Information Technology would be conducting their military training together.
On the 28th there was heavy rain.
The meeting before the students headed to the various sites was being held in the auditorium. Shortly after, all of them boarded the coaches and left.
They were accompanied by the Directors and Teachers from their respective schools.
In the coach for the School of Chinese Language, Director Huang and Director Qin sat beside Zi Yi. The group of students who were excited to have a chance to talk with Zi Yi, could only obediently stay in their respective seats.
Director Qin said to everyone, “We are headed to XX camp for our military training and the conditions there are considerably tougher. Moreover, behind the location is a primitive forest and it is also surrounded by mountains. Do not cause trouble when you arrive there. Especially keep in mind that you are not allowed to leave the marked out locations to wander around. Otherwise, no one can save you if you encounter poisonous snakes or animals.”
The students’ expressions looked bad after hearing what Direction Qin said.
They never expected for M.Uni’s military training to be so terrifying.
Director Huang and Director Qin met gazes.
Director Huang then spoke up. “Don’t worry, the training camp is very safe with guards in the surroundings. Your military training would not be too harsh. Having you here to participate in this military training is to let you know what kind of conditions the people who protect us live in.”
The two directors took turns feeding chicken soup for the soul. In the end, everyone had a sense of pride for those individuals that protected the country.
It took nearly six hours of traveling before they arrived at the destination. It was not raining here, but the site was surrounded by fog.
The fog was rather light and it shrouded the mountains, revealing a beautiful scenery.
When they arrived, there were people there to welcome them.
The two directors talked to them, while the thousand plus students had been led inside.
“It’s rather late today. Have a good rest today and the military training will start at 6 a.m tomorrow.”
The male students were particularly excited as they looked at the buildings, but the majority of the female students revealed a sullen expression.
Director Qin deliberately pulled the officer aside and suggested. “You can try to take special care of Student Zi Yi.”
Lu Changcheng was surprised to hear that and he revealed a stern expression. “Director Qin, this is a training camp and we treat all students equally.”
“Officer Lu, I don’t think you quite understand what I meant.”
Director Qin whispered a few words in Lu Changcheng’s ear.
Lu Changcheng was surprised. “Is she that good?”
“That’s right.” Director Qin pointed at the girl who stood within the crowd, not conversing with anyone. Even though she wore a simple T-shirt and jeans, she still gave off a feeling where she stood out from the crowd. “The first person that catches your eye is Zi Yi.”
When Lu Changcheng saw the students gathering earlier, he had indeed seen Zi Yi at first glance. However, he did not know her name before.
Now that Director Qin had pointed her out, his first reaction was disbelief. “Director Qin, are you sure that she’s the genius you spoke of?”
Director Qin revealed a smug smile and did not bother to explain much. “If you don’t believe me, you can observe her yourself.”
Lu Changcheng nodded.
In order to welcome the students, the training camp had specially set aside two dormitories for them.
Each building was for male students and female students respectively.
There were fewer female students in the School of Information Technology while the School of Chinese Language had fewer male students. Therefore, the ratio of male and female students when the schools were combined was very even.
However, when they walked into the dormitories, some female students directly complained out loud.
“Oh heavens, a single room has twelve beds? Not to mention, it’s bunk beds? How are we supposed to sleep?”
Zi Yi took a glance at the room and headed to one of the beds with her backpack.
She threw it on the bed and asked the person who led them here, “Where’s the canteen?”
A group of students looked at Zi Yi with bright eyes and they were surprised.
When they had come in together, all of them felt that the first person who would complain should be her.
However, why was the situation so different from what they had expected?
The staff nodded deep down and said to everyone, “Choose your beds first, I’ll bring you down to the canteen shortly.”
No matter how much they had grumbled deep down, they unexpectedly had the urge to compete with Zi Yi.
Since she could endure it, why can’t they?
When everyone had chosen their beds, they headed for the canteen.
The staff informed them of the rules and regulations as they walked. “The canteen here serves food at 7 a.m, 12 p.m and 7 p.m. You’d better eat as much as you can, as the meals here are only served during these times and there’s also a limited amount. If you don’t eat enough, you’ll be the one to suffer from hunger.
Also, after you’re done with your meal, the admin soldiers will come and take away all your electronic gadgets and snacks. They are not allowed here.”
Several female students were on the verge of crying upon hearing that.
Especially, when they arrived at the canteen, everyone discovered that the conditions here were really tough.
The canteen was very big and the male students were already there. They were currently listening to the explanation of the rules and regulations in the camp.
After dinner, all of their electronic gadgets and snacks were confiscated when they returned to the dormitory.
A group of girls who were used to being pampered at home could not stand it and started to cry.
“How am I supposed to sleep in such a bed?”
“How can I sleep with so many people in the room?!”
…
“Hello.”
Zi Yi looked towards the female student located opposite her bed.
The female student immediately revealed a bright smile.
She had dark skin and her eyes were very bright. Her facial features were, in fact, very pretty. However, due to her darker skin tone, many people overlooked her appearance because of their own bias, but she actually belonged to the type that was easy on the eye.
She asked in a soft voice, “Are you Zi Yi who scored full marks in the independent enrollment examinations?”
