Chapter 18: Chapter 18 Becoming Different from Before Chapter 18: Chapter 18 Becoming Different from Before Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Wu Xuehan saw her and exclaimed “Wow,” as if she had seen one of the wonders of the world.
Some excitement, and some curiosity.
She sat down right next to Tang Li, surprised, “You finally didn’t keep a straight face while I was singing! Last time I sang ‘Leekspin’ for you, you told me to get lost, I was upset for a long time because of that.”
“Did I?” After many years, Tang Li’s memory of this detail was vague.
Wu Xuehan nodded emphatically, a blush tinting her cheeks: “You even threw my two big leeks off the balcony.”
Being reminded , Tang Li quickly remembered.
It was something that happened not long after they had started school last year.
She had just returned to the dorm from the Lai Family, and Wu Xuehan suddenly jumped out from behind the door with a wilted leek in each hand.
The weekend she spent at the Lai Family was not a happy one.
So she interrupted Wu Xuehan: “Can you stop the noise?”
Wu Xuehan gave an “Oh,” and immediately shut her mouth.
After Wu Xuehan huffed and puffed her way up to the top bunk, Tang Li, annoyed by the leeks in the corner, picked them up and threw them into the shrubs outside the balcony.
Now, bringing up the past, Tang Li explained, “I didn’t tell you to get lost, I just wanted some quiet time.”
She paused slightly as she said this.
She turned her head to look at Wu Xuehan: “However, I owe you an apology for the things I did wrong before, I hope you won’t hold it against me, and thank you for texting me.”
In her previous life, she ended up being sent to the East Suburb and failed to notice the texts in time.
By the time she came back to class, many things had changed.
Wu Xuehan didn’t expect such an outcome.
She touched the back of her neck awkwardly, “I was just joking with you.”
“I know,” Tang Li said with a faint smile: “But some things need to be clarified.”
Wu Xuehan, with her sparkling almond-shaped eyes, hesitated for a few seconds before saying, “Tang Li, I noticed you seem different after returning home.”
In her recollection, Tang Li always kept her head down.
Because of this, the girls in class didn’t really like Tang Li.
“Actually, it’s better this way.” Wu Xuehan’s dimples appeared cute as she pursed her lips: “You used to be too quiet and didn’t pay much attention to me. I could never find anyone in the dorm to brag and chat with.”
Their school, though a third-tier university, was affiliated with the Art College and had produced a few minor celebrities, so it attracted a significant number of applicants each year.
Yu Sui and Jiang Yiniing, who shared the dorm with them, were both locals from the Capital.
One’s father was the general manager of a certain bank, and the other’s father was an executive in a state-owned enterprise.
With similar family backgrounds, they were inseparable and naturally looked down on Tang Li and Wu Xuehan, who came from a rural area in Xiangnan.
At that moment, voices of girls could be heard outside.
The dorm door was pushed open.
In came Yu Sui and Jiang Yiniing.
The two, chattering and laughing, fell silent the moment they saw Tang Li.
Wu Xuehan asked with concern, “You’re back?”
Jiang Yiniing quietly nudged Yu Sui.
Tang Li stood up to put her cardigan on her bed: “I’m going to the washroom.”
When she returned, only Wu Xuehan was left in the dorm.
“They’ve got Linear Algebra this morning and wanted to go early to get seats, so they didn’t wait for us.”
Tang Li knew well that Yu Sui and the others just didn’t want to wait for her.
When Tang Li and Wu Xuehan appeared at the classroom door, they attracted quite a few glances due to Tang Li’s seablue hair color.
Suddenly, a boy whistled.
Students with peculiar and reclusive personalities are always easy targets for others’ amusement.
And Tang Li was just such a person.
