Chapter 197: Chapter 23 Shameless

Lin Xiaoguai’s first day at Capital University passed just like that after attending an introductory class and a course on Marxist philosophy.

Since it was the first day of class, the professor didn’t talk much, but all the students listened intently, creating a positive atmosphere in the classroom.

Lin Xiaoguai didn’t feel uncomfortable with this. She had always taken her studies seriously. In fact, she found it hard to accept the perfunctory attitude towards learning exhibited by college students in future generations.

"Mr. Liang is so impressive," Zhu Huixi couldn’t help but marvel once again as they walked out of the cafeteria. "He can recite the contents of Marxist philosophy without even looking at his teaching plan. He looks so imposing."

Lin Xiaoguai smiled. Mr. Liang’s teaching standards were indeed high—in future generations, university teachers like him would have long been titled professors. However, in this era, there are many hidden talents, particularly at Capital University, where more than half of the teachers could recite their teaching plans by heart.

"I actually think Ms. Xu is rather enviable. She’s beautiful and has a nice voice. Did you notice the clothes she wears? They are all high-quality," Yang Xiaoli’s focus was different from Zhu Huixi’s

Ms. Xu, the lecturer of the introductory course, was not yet thirty and wasn’t particularly beautiful, but she dressed well and wore makeup that was considered top-notch for this era. She had a strong command over her lectures.

Zhu Huixi frowned and retorted, "I still think Mr. Liang is more impressive. Marxist philosophy is much more important than an introductory course."

Yang Xiaoli didn’t say much. As the group reached the cafeteria, Zhu Huixi excitedly looked at the menu and suggested, "They have cabbage and vermicelli. Should we get that?"

By lunchtime, they had already verified that the portion sizes in the cafeteria were quite generous. Three or four people could share one dish without a problem. They even saw a group of girls from another dormitory who had ordered a plate of Mapo tofu and finished their meal with just that dish.

"Sure, let’s also get an eggplant and pork stir-fry." This semi-vegetarian dish cost 20 cents per serving, but the portion was large enough for the three of them.

"Alright, ma’am, one serving of cabbage and vermicelli, one serving of eggplant and pork stir-fry, and three servings of white rice!" Zhu Huixi called out.

Lin Xiaoguai was not used to the food in the cafeteria, which was low on oil and high on salt, but there was no alternative. Fortunately, there were two days off per week, during which she could occasionally treat herself to something better.

Upon returning to the dormitory, Lu Rong was already lying on her bed. Lin Xiaoguai and her two friends exchanged looks, then each grabbed their clothes and headed to the bathhouse.

"Do you guys think Lu Rong has already taken a shower?" Zhu Huixi asked hesitantly after they had walked a bit.

"Why do you care about that?" Yang Xiaoli replied somewhat annoyed. "Didn’t you see how she acts like she wants nothing to do with us?"

Lin Xiaoguai softly said, "She probably did. I saw clothes hung outside."

Zhu Huixi fell silent, her expression turning as displeased as Yang Xiaoli’s. She tried to hold back but eventually blurted out, "Why is she like that?"

At lunch, they had tried to sit with Lu Rong, but she had immediately moved her food to another table without a word, clearly not wanting to associate with them. Not only Zhu Huixi and Yang Xiaoli, but even Lin Xiaoguai, who had lived a lifetime more, found this uncomfortable.

"Let it go, we showed friendliness and it was not reciprocated. It’s not our fault," Lin Xiaoguai comforted.

After all, a lot of people had seen what happened in the cafeteria at noon.

"Forget it, who cares about being friends with her?" Zhu Huixi muttered.

Zhu Huixi was quite sociable. While Lin Xiaoguai had yet to memorize all the faces in their class within a day, Zhu Huixi could already chat as if they were long-time friends.

This perhaps was the reason why Zhu Huixi felt particularly slighted by Lu Rong’s rebuffs.

After they returned from the bathhouse, Lu Rong was still lying on her bed. Lin Xiaoguai and the others each hung up their clothes they had washed, and as Lin Xiaoguai opened her cabinet to take out some moisturizer, her expression suddenly froze—the homemade skincare cream she had made was missing.

"What’s wrong?" Zhu Huixi immediately noticed her change in expression and asked.

"My facial cream is missing," Lin Xiaoguai said, glancing towards Lu Rong, who was still on the bed.

It wasn’t that she was suspicious for no reason—four people lived in the dorm, and she, Yang Xiaoli, and Zhu Huixi had been together all day, with the dorm door locked and keys only given to the four of them. If Lu Rong hadn’t taken it, could it have been the dorm manager?
