Chapter 812: 252: The start of face slapping! _5
Natalie Taylor couldn’t help but glance back at Delia Frieman, who this time, flashed her a friendly smile.
Natalie also returned a smile, and then said, “Rachel, your friend is quite passionate, isn’t she?”
“Hmm.” Delia, after all, is in a unique line of work, so naturally, she is warm to people.
Rachel never quite liked how Delia was always grinning at anyone and anytime, sometimes even on WhatsApp. This is Capital Normal University, a sacred place, not a market for Delia to solicit customers.
Natalie added, “And, your friend has a pretty good temperament. She must be a white-collar worker, right?”
White-collar workers always have a sense of confidence.
And Delia, she embodied that confidence exactly.
Upon hearing this, Rachel’s expression was hard to describe.
She wished Delia was a white-collar worker too; she wished she could have a normal sister.
Delia is just a streetwalker in the red-light district.
Thinking about this, Rachel felt unbearable and almost suffocated.
Rachel turned to Natalie, smiled, and changed the subject, “Natalie, where are you from?”
The less you say, the less harm done.
She didn’t want to talk a lot about Delia in front of others.
“I’m from Sucheng, how about you?” Natalie asked.
Rachel answered, “River City.”
Natalie laughed, “River City, what a wonderful place. I even travelled there during the summer vacation! Why didn’t I bump into you then?”
For Rachel, summer vacation was a dark period in her past.
She didn’t want to mention it to anyone.
“I arrived in Capital City quite early, most of my friends are here,” Rachel continued, “And, River City is so vast, even if I hadn’t left, there’s very little chance we would’ve met.”
“True.” Natalie nodded.
They chatted as they walked through the campus.
There are four people living in Rachel’s dorm.
Two of them are from Capital City.
The other one is from Reasin City, over three thousand kilometers away from here.
The two locals are somewhat exclusionary.
From their conversations, it was clear they looked down upon Rachel and one other roommate.
Mocking them for being poor, unable to afford proper skincare products.
But today was different.
Rachel had brought two sets of top-tier skincare products and two packs of high-quality face masks.
This is also why Rachel suddenly accepted the twenty thousand yuan from Delia. To survive in this mini-society called university and to get along well with your roommates, you must have the means.
Otherwise, you would be forever bullied and looked down upon.
Seeing Rachel’s skincare products, one of the Capital City native roommates, Kitty, immediately changed her attitude, “Rachel’s back.”
Another roommate, Marvis, said sarcastically, “I know this brand. But it’s sold out at all domestic counters. Rachel, these aren’t counterfeits, are they?”
Rachel chuckled, “A friend of mine brought them from overseas.”
“Really?” Marvis went on, “Overseas skincare products have anti-counterfeit QR codes. Do yours?”
Rachel picked up one of the products, pointed at the label and said, “You mean this?”
Marvis just couldn’t believe that a person like Rachel could afford such luxury skincare products, so she immediately took out her phone and scanned the code.
But to her disappointment, the results confirmed authenticity.
Rachel’s skincare products were genuine.
Kitty came over as well, looking a bit shocked.
Rachel picked up another product, smiled and said, “Marvis, would you like to scan this one as well?”
Marvis, with anger in her eyes, took out her phone and started scanning.
Yet, the result still confirmed authenticity.
Marvis also noticed that Rachel was wearing designer clothes today.
Although not very expensive, they were undoubtedly unaffordable for an average family.
How did Rachel suddenly become rich?
Today, Rachel finally got to vent her frustrations.
She still remembered the disdainful faces of Kitty and Marvis on her first day in the dorm.
From that day on, Rachel quietly vowed that she would never let anyone look down on her again.
Capital University is located right next to Normal University. In the evening, Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight invited Rachel to have dinner together.
Flora Tiarks was also in their company.
Flora was also at Capital University and was lucky enough to share a dorm with Diana.
The two groups met at the entrance of Capital University.
Fiona asked, “Should we ride bikes or take a taxi?”
