But for the handsome boy whose name she didn't even know, so handsome it was hard to look at directly, she was willing to wrong herself and speak properly with the unobservant Su Xiaotian!
Su Xiaotian could see the unwillingness and restraint on Yin Ruyun's face.
It was truly laughable; if she was unwilling, why bother?
Wouldn't it be better to live a simple life! Why be so tired!
"Xiaotian, I know I was wrong before. You're still young, and as an older sister, I should yield to you."
Yin Ruyun began to pull Su Xiaotian's sleeve as if talking to herself.
Su Xiaotian quickly dodged.
She didn't like overly intimate contact with people she wasn't close to.
Especially not someone like Yin Ruyun, whom Su Xiaotian genuinely disliked.
Yin Ruyun awkwardly withdrew her hand and gave a sheepish smile.
"It's fine for us to just get along peacefully."
As soon as Su Xiaotian said this, the smile on Yin Ruyun's face finally couldn't be maintained.
This time, Qi Xiaofang didn't speak up to defend Yin Ruyun. Instead, she quietly tidied the beds and took her toiletries to the washroom.
She regretted it now. She couldn't understand what she was thinking when Dong Yan'an helped her build a good relationship with Su Xiaotian, and why she had gotten close to Yin Ruyun.
Su Xiaotian was clearly better!
But was it too late to regret it now?
No, it was too late. Once a rift appeared, it was ultimately difficult to mend.
Su Xiaotian, impatient to continue talking with Yin Ruyun, simply got out of bed, picked up her water basin, and went to wash up.
Yin Ruyun wanted to follow her out, but in the end, she gave up.
After Su Xiaotian returned from the washroom, she lay down directly on her bed.
Today, she had made a simple curtain from a piece of cloth, which, when pulled, could block others' line of sight.
Yin Ruyun watched helplessly as Su Xiaotian treated her with such disrespect. Seeing that it was getting late and fearing the lights would be turned off, she could only go to wash up.
As for the other few people, their mood for studying had been ruined, so they also washed up and went to bed.
Unlike other freshman dormitories, the atmosphere in Dorm 314 was very oppressive.
Su Xiaotian directly started reading the book she had taken from the system, silently, so no one else noticed.
After reading until eleven o'clock, Su Xiaotian put the book away and lay down to sleep.
The night passed without incident.
The next morning, when Su Xiaotian woke up, the other people in the dormitory had already woken up, but the atmosphere was still not very lively.
After washing up, Su Xiaotian didn't need to apply makeup, just a layer of face cream.
"She's still younger than us. Look at her little face!" Chu Yue said enviously.
In fact, at her current age, she was also like a blooming flower, full of collagen, but she just felt that Su Xiaotian's skin was better.
"Xiaotian, what face cream are you using? I've never seen it before," Zhao Hongmei said, staring curiously at the face cream box in Su Xiaotian's eyes.
Su Xiaotian smiled and said, "My aunt sent this to me from Rongcheng. If you like it, I'll ask my aunt to send a couple more boxes over later."
This was naturally Su Xiaotian's excuse.
This face cream was a product of the space's upgrade, and as always, it was of good quality.
Su Xiaotian found it very comfortable to use and could no longer get used to face creams bought on the market.
Moreover, this face cream was good and not expensive, so it could also be given as a gift.
"How can I accept that? Xiaotian, how about I give you money?"
Zhao Hongmei didn't like to take advantage of others, but she genuinely liked it, so she immediately smiled and negotiated.
"It's not very expensive," Su Xiaotian said with a smile. "Xiaoyue, Yan'an, I'll bring a box for each of you too."
The two had been envious, but because Su Xiaotian had offered to give them, they hadn't dared to ask.
Unexpectedly, Su Xiaotian took the initiative to offer them.
"Then thank you, Xiaotian. Actually, my mother said that when it gets colder, she'll send me a few scarves. When that time comes, I'll bring one for each of you."
Dong Yan'an was from the south, considered a hometown of silk, so she said generously.
People's feelings are accumulated through mutual communication and exchange of gifts.
Su Xiaotian didn't stand on ceremony and replied with a smile, "That would be great. The weather is hot now, so scarves aren't needed yet. In another couple of months, scarves will be indispensable."
Hearing Su Xiaotian not refuse, Dong Yan'an's smile became more sincere.
She always felt that Su Xiaotian had a better relationship with Chu Yue and Zhao Hongmei.
But now, she felt that Su Xiaotian didn't treat her as an outsider.
The other two didn't speak, but they also started thinking about what to give their good friends.
In contrast to the lively conversation among the four, Yin Ruyun and Qi Xiaofang had no interaction.
Seeing that it was almost time, Su Xiaotian changed into an outfit and prepared to go out.
A knee-length denim skirt paired with a basic white short-sleeved shirt made her look youthful and radiant.
"Xiaotian, you're so beautiful!" Zhao Hongmei exclaimed. "When you're my age, you'll know that youth is wonderful!"
Listening to Zhao Hongmei's serious words, Su Xiaotian chuckled.
Chu Yue couldn't help but give Zhao Hongmei a big eye-roll.
"You make it sound like you're ancient!"
The girls bantered for a while longer. Knowing that Su Xiaotian had an appointment with Chi Yiyuan, they didn't delay her further.
Qi Xiaofang watched them so happily and was actually envious. She regretted that she should have been part of this small group, but she had missed it due to a moment's lapse.
However, Qi Xiaofang didn't have many desires for clothes or daily necessities.
She only had one thought in her heart: to be able to eat her fill!
She watched Su Xiaotian put on her white canvas shoes and carry her bag before lowering her head to continue rubbing her fingers.
Before coming to Jingcheng University, she didn't know the gap between herself and city people. Now she knew.
Her hands were rough, like sandpaper, but the hands of the other city classmates were fair and smooth.
She desperately wanted to get close to Yin Ruyun, but Yin Ruyun looked down on her from the bottom of her heart.
Yin Ruyun also felt Qi Xiaofang's change in attitude towards her.
She hadn't noticed any change in Qi Xiaofang last night.
But now she realized that Qi Xiaofang hadn't said a word from last night to this morning, remaining silent.
It was breakfast time, and as Su Xiaotian went out, she attracted many envious glances.
A thirteen-year-old girl, at the age of a blooming flower, wearing such fresh, clean, and fashionable clothes, how could she not be coveted?
There were no denim skirts in Jingcheng yet. Su Xiaotian's denim skirt was from Rongcheng.
The clothes from Rongcheng were more fashionable than those in Jingcheng.
When Su Manxiu saw stylish clothes in Rongcheng, she would send them to Su Xiaotian.
This denim skirt was sent by Su Manxiu because she thought it was beautiful.
In fact, Su Xiaotian didn't lack clothes to wear.
Su Taohua's tailor shop had expanded its scale and was now like a small garment factory with over a dozen workers.
Many of the clothes she processed were designed by Su Xiaotian. If the finished products were suitable for Su Xiaotian's age, she would keep a set for her.
In addition to what her brothers bought for Su Xiaotian, Du Tonghe and Yu Ruiyuan, as well as Fan Shufang and Dong Yuanzhong, all bought clothes for Su Xiaotian, wishing they could dress her up like a little princess or a doll.
Although Su Xiaotian felt it was too wasteful, and she was still growing, there was no need to prepare so many clothes, as they would be wasted if she grew taller and couldn't wear them.
But others disagreed, saying that they didn't have the conditions before, but now they did, so they should prepare the best for her.
Therefore, Su Xiaotian's closet was full of new clothes, with various styles, colors, and fabrics.
Su Xiaotian was never someone who would be so low-key as to wrong herself. This time, when she came to school, she brought four outfits, including dresses, skirts, and pants.
