25 Chapter 25 Money is a Good Thing
But the other person didn’t seem to recognize the gentleman…
Tang Li’s wound was bandaged, and the Lexus was parked at the school
entrance.
She picked up her backpack and bid farewell to Song Baiyan: “I’ve arrived, please drive safely.”
Song Baiyan uttered a sound: “Go ahead.”
After getting out of the car, Tang Li walked a long way before stopping.
Looking back, the dark brown sedan was gone.
When things did not go as she expected, Tang Li felt like she was standing at a crossroads, unsure which path to take to find the right way out.
Her past experiences made her stop believing that there were good people
in this world.
But now, it seemed like she had met one.
Tang Li returned to her dormitory, and before she even entered, she heard Jiang Yiniing softly comforting: “It’s okay, it’s just a torn pair of pants. I ripped my trousers during sit–up exercises in high school military training. If you let it go, it’s really not a big deal.”
“So many people saw it.” Yu Sui sobbed, “Did you not hear how those sleazy men talked? They must have spread it around the male dormitory by now.”
“If they want to spread it, let them, even if they make it wildly sensational, they have no real proof. If you don’t care about it, they’ll find it boring and stop talking about it after a few days.”

Just as Jiang Yiniing finished comforting, Wu Xuchan hesitantly said in a mosquito–like voice, “There’s a photo of Yu Sui’s ‘panties‘ on the alumni
network.”
Yu Sui grabbed her cellphone in a haste.
On the campus network, the hot topic headline of the Art College was her ‘panties‘ picture.
The photo was taken from a slanted angle from the back.
Because of the good angle, her white buttocks and thighs were visible.
The uploader was a male student from the director’s department.
He also posted a picture of a peach with a photoshopped lace ‘panty‘ on the alumni network.
Unexpected?! Surprised?!
An hysterical scream echoed through the dormitory.
Tang Li pushed the door and came in, just in time to see Yu Sui smash the cellphone on the ground.
The cellphone screen shattered into pieces.
“My cellphone!” Wu Xuehan’s eyes reddened.
Her family was not well–off, this cellphone was bought with a month of her father’s salary, she planned to use it until she graduated from college, and buy a new one with her own earnings, but Yu Sui smashed it like throwing away trash.
Seeing Wu Xuehan crouching and checking the cellphone, Yu Sui sneered: “It’s just an outdated cellphone, why mourn over it!”

Saying so, she took her wallet from the bed.
She pulled out a stack of cash and threw it at Wu Xuehan’s feet: “This money, enough to buy you three outdated ones. Sharing a dorm with two clingy poors, consider me extremely unlucky!”
Before she finished, the hand reaching out in the air was grabbed.
Yu Sui turned her head in astonishment –
–
Tang Li, her left hand wrapped in gauze, pinched Yu Sui’s elbow, pointed her chin at the cash, but her words were not as calm as her eyes: “Pick it up yourself.”
Yu Sui sneered after being surprised: “Poor is poor, can’t even let people speak?”
Tang Li looked at her, suddenly a smile curled on her lips.
When Yu Sui began feeling uneasy under her gaze, Tang Li let go, bent down, and picked up the cash one by one. Then she straightened up, met Yu Sui’s angry eyes, and said lightly, “Money is a good thing, one day when you can’t splurge it anymore, you’ll start appreciating its value.”
Yu Sui’s lips trembled, unable to utter a word.
Tang Li walked straight to Wu Xuehan, placed all the money into her hands: “Since it’s compensation from your roommate, you should take it, any excess consider it as a subsidy for your emotional distress.”
