The people Zhang Daliang brought were very efficient, and soon after everything was loaded onto the truck, they covered it with a tarp and left with the crew.
Xinyan confirmed the coast was clear before transferring all the sacks inside the room to her space. To be on the safe side, she didn’t use the front door but climbed over the wall to leave through the backyard.
In the new place she found, she hadn’t yet informed Zhang Daliang. Anyway, before the transaction, she always went over first to finalize the time and place for the deal.
Seeing that a third of the cargo was already out, she thought she would visit Jin City to sell some goods there, aiming to clear her stock before the holiday.
After cycling into the city, she found a secure spot to enter her space, changed back her makeup, had a simple meal, and then exited the space to head to school.
As soon as she entered the dormitory, Zhang Zhaodi recounted everything that happened at 307.0 to Xinyan.
After hearing it, Xinyan made a mental note against Xia Ruhui.
Thinking of the meat sauce she had in her cabinet from before, she took a small jar and handed it to Zhang Zhaodi: "This sauce is something I brought to school before. Since I’m not dining around here anymore, this jar hasn’t been opened. If you don’t mind it being stored for long, you can have it."
Zhang Zhaodi didn’t expect Xinyan to give her something: "This is too much, I feel embarrassed."
Xinyan placed it in her arms with a smile: "Take it, if it stays longer, it might spoil."
Zhang Zhaodi felt warmth in her heart: "Thank you, Xinyan."
She wasn’t foolish and knew that Xinyan was indirectly helping her. The family conditions weren’t very good, and before the college entrance exam, she promised her family she would ensure a good life for them.
So, after enrolling, part of the subsidies she received was sent back home.
She ate the cheapest dishes daily, drank free soup, and only ate a single mixed flour bun each meal, rarely having a full meal.
Previously, Xinyan made an excuse about not eating at the cafeteria and gave her meal tickets. Now, she found another excuse to give her the sauce. She remembered the kindness shown to her.
Seeing only her in the dormitory, Xinyan finally asked: "Where are they?"
Zhang Zhaodi put away the sauce: "Sister Hai Li took them to the classroom for rehearsal."
Talking about the program, Xinyan suddenly realized why Qiao Shanmei acted that way today.
She thought, so that’s why, am I caught up in unnecessary trouble?
However, she looked down on Qiao Shanmei even more. If you have ideas, you should compete with the counselor, not take your dissatisfaction out on others.
After the afternoon professional class ended, Professor Tao asked Xinyan to accompany her to the office.
Only then did she find out the manuscript fee for the translation she completed earlier had arrived.
However, as Professor Tao handed the money to Xinyan, Qiao Shanmei, who was looking for the counselor, happened to see it.
Qiao Shanmei immediately developed malicious thoughts.
So she turned and left the office area, found Men Yuxiang from the French class who was known for gossiping, and seemed to mention the incident casually.
By the next morning, after a night of rumors, everyone Xinyan encountered near the dormitory looked at her with strange eyes.
Xinyan felt puzzled, checked her attire, and found nothing wrong.
As soon as she went upstairs, Jiang Peiqin came up to her: "Oh my dear ancestor, something happened."
Xinyan slightly frowned, already having a bad feeling: "What happened?"
Jiang Peiqin walked alongside her and explained the rumors to Xinyan: "What’s really going on?"
After listening, Xinyan was furious, but she believed that the innocent will always be clear; however, those spreading rumors must pay the price.
