Chapter 560: 561, Singing Contrarian (First Update)

The couple watching Chu Jin’s disappearing figure were completely dumbstruck, and it took them a long ti to co back to their senses.

After a while, the girl finally snapped out of it, involuntarily exclaiming three words, "So handso!"

Li Zhen beside her touched his nose, realizing if this girl started to show off, he really wouldn’t have any part in it!

"Don’t space out, let

take you up first." Li Zhen took the initiative to grab her suitcase, imitating Chu Jin’s manner. With a ’whoosh’, he hoisted it onto his shoulder without a change in his facial expression, but his knees bent involuntarily. Damn, this suitcase was really too freaking heavy!

Did that lady use so kind of cheat just now?

Chu Jin successfully found her dormitory.

All the doors and windows of the dormitory were open.

Standing outside, she could hear the "swish swish" sound of sweeping from inside.

Chu Jin composed herself and then stepped inside.

A very standard four-person room, quite spacious. Everyone slept on the top bunks, while the bottom bunks were used for desks and cabinets and the like, with bookshelves, wardrobes, shoe cabinets, and the like, everything that was needed, and there was even a washing machine in the corner. Compared to other schools, the living environnt could be said to be very good.

Chu Jin looked around the place with a calm expression and then pulled her suitcase to a stop in front of her bed.

Just then, the girl who was sweeping the floor turned around, looked at Chu Jin with a shy smile, "Hello, my na is Yin Wu, ’Yin’ as in the ’Yin’ from ’Yin Jifu’, and ’Wu’ as in the ’Wu’ from ’the cry of the phoenix’. Please take good care of

in the future."

After speaking, she wiped her hands on her sides before reaching out to Chu Jin.

Yin Wu dressed simply, and her skin wasn’t very fair. She had an oval face with ordinary looks, yet she had a head of black and shiny hair. Her smile was approachable, and at a glance, anyone could tell she was a girl with good upbringing.

Chu Jin smiled lightly, took her hand, and spoke softly, "Hello, I’m Chu Jin, ’Chu’ as in ’Chu River and Han Border’, ’Jin’ as in ’beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers’. You can just call

by my na or Jin."

Coming to the big city for the first ti, Yin Wu was a bit nervous, but her anxiety was quickly dispelled by Chu Jin’s disarming smile.

Beautiful and unpretentious.

That was Yin Wu’s first impression of Chu Jin.

The people of Capital City aren’t as haughty as they’re said to be online.

In an instant, Yin Wu’s views of all the people in Capital City changed.

"Jin, you must be an art student, right?" Not only was she beautiful, but even her hands were perfect, delicate and boneless, fair and slender, with cool fingertips - clearly the hands of soone involved in art and painting.

Unlike her, who had been working on the farm for years, her hands were extrely rough. Having grown up in the countryside, the people around her were similar, and she had never really cared until now, when she suddenly understood the true aning of delicate hands.

Chu Jin shook her head slightly, "I’m from the Hua Language and Literature Departnt, what about you?"

"Ah?" Yin Wu blinked in surprise, scratching her head, "I’m in the History Departnt. I ca a day earlier than you, and I’ve already tidied everything up. If you need any help, just let

know, don’t be shy."

Chu Jin politely expressed her thanks, "Okay, thank you. Actually, I don’t have much stuff."

Yin Wu continued, "I cleaned the desk and the bed yesterday, so you don’t have to wipe them again. Just arrange your things and you can be set. You do your thing, I’ll go take out the trash."

As she finished speaking, she felt that her words might have been inappropriate. After all, the big city is different from the countryside; many people have a mania for cleanliness. Yin Wu added, "However, I might not have cleaned it thoroughly, so you can wipe it again if you want."

Yin Wu was a very clean and industrious girl. Not only had she swept the floor spotlessly, but every item in the dormitory had been wiped by her until it shone.

Chu Jin directly opened her suitcase and began placing her things one by one onto the desk, "It’s very clean, you’ve worked hard."

In that mont, Yin Wu felt ward by her response. She curled her lips into a smile, turned to go downstairs to take out the trash, not expecting to bump into soone as soon as she stepped out of the dormitory door.

To be precise, a group of people.

She had run into the girl at the front, spilling trash on both of them.

The girl stepped back before turning her face black with anger and snapped, "Oh, my god! Don’t you look where you’re going? Are you blind or what?"

Yin Wu quickly lowered his head to apologize, "I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry! I didn’t an to do that." As he spoke, he pulled out so tissues from his pocket and hastily wiped the bits of paper that had stuck to the girl’s clothes.

"Don’t touch

with your hands!" the girl scread, unable to stand it.

Yin Wu imdiately stopped his actions and sincerely apologized, "I’m sorry!"

The girl was about 19 years old, with fiery red lips, thick eyebrows, and big eyes, her exquisite makeup already disguising her natural features.

She was dressed in a limited edition Chanel suit, stepping on sharp heels, clutching a Chanel handbag, her nails painted with bright red Chanel polish, with diamonds inlaid on her nail caps, casting enchanting reflections in the sunlight.

She emanated an aura of noble and luxurious déjà vu.

Yin Wu subconsciously didn’t dare to lift his eyes to look at her.

"Is ’sorry’ useful?" The girl clearly did not accept Yin Wu’s apology, she lifted her chin and said in an extrely arrogant tone, "If you hit soone to death with your car on the road, is it over just by saying ’sorry’?"

"I..." Yin Wu stepped back and bowed to her, "I really didn’t an it, please forgive ."

"Forget it, forget it," the girl lost her interest and waved her hand dismissively, patting her clothes, "Today is just my bad luck. Be more careful when you walk in the future. If there’s a next ti, I won’t be this nice!"

"Thank you," Yin Wu bowed again.

The girl didn’t look at her anymore and murmured "bad luck" before leading the group of people following her, strutting ahead confidently.

Yin Wu tidied up the trash, looked back inadvertently, and then her eyes widened in surprise!

The girl had actually entered her own dormitory.

She pursed her lips, paused for a mont, then picked up the trash and quickly walked downstairs.

When the girl entered the dormitory with a group of people, Chu Jin was tidying up her computer desk.

"You, you, you," she pointed at several people behind her one by one, "and you, can now go downstairs to bring up my stuff. And you and you, get this place disinfected, it’s filthy!"

After speaking, she took another walk around the dormitory, pointing to her bed, "This iron bed is just too ugly! I’m not here to serve a sentence! Take it apart right now, then call the butler to get

a new one!"

"Of course, Miss!"

After the girl finished speaking, a chorus of deep and powerful voices ca from behind her.

"Go ahead." She waved her hand gently, and the people behind her vanished, each attending to their tasks, followed by the noise of beds being taken apart.

Throughout this, Chu Jin stayed busy with her own things, without looking up at the girl even once.

If it were soone else, seeing such a display of power would at least raise so curiosity if not astonishnt, right? But what about this person? She just kept calm the whole ti, minding her own business as if she hadn’t seen her at all.

The girl frowned slightly. You see, she enjoyed the envious looks from countless students as she arrived at school with her bodyguards.

She hoped to see that kind of envy in her new roommate’s eyes as well.

But this person, why hadn’t she lifted her head to take a single look at her from beginning to end?

Could she be deaf?

Chu Jin wore white earphones, sitting in front of the computer, her fingers tapping away on the keyboard. The girl stood right behind her, yet she couldn’t make out the words on the computer screen.

The girl stood there, squinting at Chu Jin.

Theperson in front of her sat quietly. From her angle, she could just see her profile, long and thick eyelashes curling like little fans, lips red as if stained by blood, her profile as radiant as jade, and up close, not a single flaw could be found on her snow-like skin.

So delicate, it seed like it might break at the slightest touch.

On that pure and flawless face, there were no traces of makeup.

Just from a profile view, she could be this beautiful; wouldn’t she be even more astonishingly angelic if seen from the front?

However, many people only look good from the side, not so much from the front.

The girl slowly shifted her gaze and cleared her throat, saying, "Are you also a freshman? Living in this dorm room?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Jin removed her headphones and turned her head with a charming smile, her tone light, "Yes."

She was intentionally concealing her sharpness, which made her appear ethereal and harmless, giving a very comforting feeling.

The girl’s pupils slightly contracted; even though she had ntally prepared herself, she was still taken aback by the person’s appearance. She had seen countless beauties from childhood, but never one that dazzled like this!

Perhaps ’beauty’ was no longer an adequate word to describe her.

But when the girl saw Chu Jin’s clothing, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief—indeed, God was fair after all! What use was beauty? Living among nobility, she had seen too many young and pretty won cling to wealthy and powerful old n!

At least in material terms, she was one up on her.

Maybe, one day, she could introduce Chu Jin to so greasy, wealthy patron.

With this thought, the girl’s unbalanced heart slowly adjusted. No money, no status, she was ultimately beneath her, posing no threat.

The girl tilted her chin up at her and spoke condescendingly, "Hello, I am Qiao Muyan."

Upon hearing this, Chu Jin showed little expression and simply nodded slightly, "Hello, Chu Jin." Her voice was light but warm, like a refreshing breeze in April, delightfully new to the ears.

Qiao Muyan sneered inwardly; this Chu Jin was indeed an unworldly commoner who didn’t even know of Qiao family’s Little Princess, Qiao Muyan.

It was at this mont that Yin Wu, who had been taking out the trash downstairs, pushed the door open and entered.

Just as she entered the door.

A shrill female voice rang out in the air, "Stop right there!"

Yin Wu was so startled she froze on the spot, looking at Qiao Muyan, unsure of what to do.

Qiao Muyan glanced at her sideways, "Who allowed you to co in?"

"I, I live in this dorm room." Yin Wu replied in a low voice, confused as to why she always felt so insignificant in front of Qiao Muyan—perhaps it was their different upbringings, she always sensed an unapproachable oppressiveness about her.

Your superior birth determines your future.

She and Qiao Muyan were not from the sa world; the cost of the clothes on Qiao Muyan alone could cover several years of her family’s agricultural inco back ho.

Thus, she tried her best not to offend Qiao Muyan.

In Capital City, after all, power and status reigned supre.

If she offended her, there would be no good ending for her.

Yin Wu had a very clear understanding of herself and was also clever, well aware of when to yield and when to stand firm.

"You live in this dorm too?" Qiao Muyan’s face filled with incredulity! My God, how could the school arrange for her to live with soone like this?

While nodding, Yin Wu moved further into the dorm.

Qiao Muyan pinched her nose and stepped back several paces, pointing at the garbage can in her hand, "Take that thing out!"

"Ah?" Yin Wu was taken aback, sowhat baffled.

Qiao Muyan’s brow furrowed, and she spoke in disgust, "You’re from the countryside, aren’t you!?"

"Yes," Yin Wu nodded, seemingly oblivious to the disgust in Qiao Muyan’s tone, and said with a smile, "My ho is in Little West Ditch, over a thousand kiloters away from Beijing."

She didn’t think there was anything shaful about living in the countryside, so she didn’t think much about Qiao Muyan’s "You’re from the countryside, aren’t you?"

"Oh, my God!" Qiao Muyan cursed under her breath. The disdain in her eyes was intense. What was the school thinking? They actually arranged for her to share a dorm with a country bumpkin! She had never had any good experiences with rural people in all her life!

And now they expected her to live with one!

This was truly an insult to her!

But the good upbringing she had received since childhood was restraining Qiao Muyan, preventing her from swearing. Instead, she just took out a pack of won’s cigarettes from her pocket, lit one, and began to puff.

If she had known it would be like this, she would have never co to Capital University!

Yin Wu was a smart person and at this point understood the implication in Qiao Muyan’s words, so she said no more.

She turned and entered the washroom, recalling her mother’s instructions before school. After splashing her face with cold water at the sink, she ca out and bent down to take a red plastic bag out from a cabinet.

Inside the plastic bag were homade raisins, like grapes in bunches. Though they didn’t look as fresh and enticing as actual grapes, they had a sweet fragrance that was quite tempting.

She took out two bunches of raisins from the bag and slowly walked over to Qiao Muyan, smiling as she said, "Classmate Qiao, I’m really sorry for staining your clothes earlier. These raisins are from my hotown, sun-dried by my mom personally. Would you like to try so?"

Because everyone’s bed had their na and student number, Yin Wu knew this was her third roommate, Qiao Muyan.

This gesture was rely an attempt to bridge their relationship, as they were going to live together for four years.

Qiao Muyan didn’t reach out to take any, instead she looked up at Yin Wu with disdain and said, "In the future, just call

Miss Qiao. Thanks for your stuff, but I never eat products without a brand."

Qiao Muyan was very proud, tilting her chin up as if she were so savior, making everyone seem beneath her, and trampling on Yin Wu’s self-esteem.

Yin Wu’s hand remained frozen in mid-air, her face burning with sha, wishing she could just find a hole to crawl into. For the first ti in her life, she felt so strongly that money was such an important thing.

Qiao Muyan was looking at her sideways, with a mocking curl of her lip.

A country bumpkin thought she could co and curry favor with her, what a dream! As if she didn’t know her own social status!

It was laughable!

"I love pure natural green food," a pleasant female voice rang out next to Yin Wu, and then, a fair and slender hand took the raisins from her, "Little Wu, give

both bunches, you won’t mind, will you?"

"No, not at all," Yin Wu ca to her senses, slightly stunned as she turned to Chu Jin.

Chu Jin smiled, plucked a raisin and put it into her mouth. Instantly, a sweet taste spread across her taste buds, refreshing without being cloying, and she complinted, "These are delicious, your mother is quite skilled."

Yin Wu looked at her with eyes full of gratitude. "Thank you."

She was well aware that this kind-hearted girl was helping her out of an awkward situation.

"What silly things you’re saying?" Chu Jin smiled lightly, "I should be the one thanking you for the raisins. By the way, didn’t you co a day earlier than I did? Could you show

around the campus?"

And just like that, she effortlessly dissolved Yin Wu’s embarrassnt.

Yin Wu nodded and replied with a smile, "Sure."

Watching the two girls walk out of the dorm hand in hand, Qiao Muyan’s brows furrowed deeply. Chu Jin had too much nerve, even that country bumpkin knew to suck up to her, and yet she dared to defy her! Knowing full well that she disliked that bumpkin, she still deliberately got so close to her! This was blatantly making an enemy of her!

Defying her, huh?

It was infuriating! Qiao Muyan felt her dignity was being challenged, biting her lip in anger. Never in her life had she been so humiliated!

"You two, hurry up!" Overco with rage, Qiao Muyan could only vent her frustration on the two bodyguards dismantling the bed, "Dawdling like that, did you not eat or what?"
