Chapter 1450: Chapter 1452: Fierce Beasts in the Flood
This trip to Capital City, to the Art Academy, had utterly captivated her eyes, causing her to act too impulsively without careful consideration, assuming the people here were as easy to fool as those she had encountered before, leading to underestimating them.
The result of underestimating them was her reputation once again plumting to the depths.
But what could she do?
She had no way out; she absolutely could not turn back.
If she dropped out and went ho, her father would make her work at that local plastic factory, where the female workers all wore very plain work clothes, spending seven or eight hours daily next to the machines; their hands beca rough from the work, and future marriage prospects limited to marrying co-workers or just settling for soone in the town followed by having children and pinching pennies daily.
People around her ho were all like that.
She didn’t want to beco one of them.
This was the path she had chosen for herself, and moreover, it had taken her an entire year to convince her parents to let her study painting; she must grit her teeth and keep going.
She had been told before that those who study fine arts usually co from wealthier backgrounds, so, the students here were initially at a higher level than she could reach.
She must integrate into their circle.
With her mind made up again, Ye Wanqing lowered her head, gently clasped her hands in front of her stomach, and walked into the classroom.
As soon as they saw her enter, those whispers quieted down.
Previously, when these situations involved Chiang Xiao, she would coldly observe and sowhat gloat, but now that she herself had beco the main character, Ye Wanqing realized just how unpleasant it felt.
She silently walked to her seat and sat down.
But as soon as she sat down, the girl at her desk stood up holding her bag and said, “I think I’ll change seats; I get chills sitting here, never knowing when I might get stabbed.”
Ye Wanqing stared fiercely back at her, her eyes reddening.
What did this an?
Did they see her as so kind of disaster or beast?
The classmate indeed found another empty spot and moved away.
Ye Wanqing clasped her hands tightly into fists and took a deep breath.
No matter, as long as she could endure, as long as she could succeed later, as long as she beca wealthy and high-status in the future, wouldn’t these people still grovel before her?
People are all pragmatists!
That night, Chiang Xiao returned to the dormitory.
Lee i and Xie Landi were there in the dormitory; Lee i was doing a leg stretch posing her foot up on the bed ladder, while Xie Landi was mopping the floor. Both seed happy when they saw Chiang Xiao returning.
They were not in the sa class as Chiang Xiao, and had not witnessed the confrontation that day on the sports field, hence they were unaware that Chiang Xiao and Ye Wanqing had just clashed.
“Chiang Xiao, did you go to a relative’s house yesterday?”
They all knew Chiang Xiao was not a native of Capital City, but vaguely heard that she had relatives in Capital City?
Xie Landi was quite envious.
On her own, she had ventured to Capital City; though her school fees were waived, class fees and personal stationery costs, as well as living expenses, were her responsibility.
Having no one to consult before, she had only brought money based on her guess; there really wasn’t anything more she could bring.
But after a few days, she realized that the cost of living here was far higher than she had imagined, and she didn’t know how long her money would last, so she rushed back to the dorm right after school and dared not go anywhere else.
How wonderful it would be if she too had relatives in Capital City.
