Chapter 757: Sense of Inferiority

It was a topic she had never encountered before, given that even her first semester’s tuition fees were scraped together by her family. It was highly likely that she would rely on student loans for her future tuition fees.

Unbeknownst to her, a sense of inferiority began to creep into her heart. Simultaneously, a feeling of ambition also quietly took root.

Ye Leng’an smiled and nodded. “If this doesn’t burden your family, then I think it’s a good idea. It’ll also be convenient for meals when you go home.”

She never subscribed to the notion that university students shouldn’t own cars. In reality, as long as the family could afford it and it served their convenience, why not?

“You agree with me too!” Zhu Bixuan’s eyes sparkled upon Ye Leng’an’s affirmation. “I’ll call my family now to discuss.”

With that said, she headed straight to the balcony outside and began her call.

Inside the dormitory, only Ye Leng’an and Zhou Cui’an remained.

Observing Zhu Bixuan’s enthusiastic demeanor, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but chuckle. It was evident that Zhu Bixuan came from a well-off family and was likely a pampered child at home. Such individuals were quite easy to get along with.

“Um…” Zhou Cui’an glanced timidly at Ye Leng’an before timidly speaking up, “Leng’an, what you said to Bixuan just now, wasn’t it a bit inappropriate?”

In her view, despite being university students now, they were still reliant on their families’ finances. Encouraging Zhu Bixuan to purchase a car seemed overly extravagant to Zhou Cui’an.

“What’s wrong with it?” Ye Leng’an was taken aback by Zhou Cui’an’s sudden remark, then nonchalantly replied, “She’s not a child anymore. Some decisions she can make on her own. If her decision truly affects her family, then her family probably won’t agree either. If her family agrees, it means it’s within their acceptable range. Why should we, as bystanders, be overly concerned?”

Though Zhou Cui’an hesitated to respond further, her disagreement was evident from her expression. However, she refrained from further argument.

Ye Leng’an noticed Zhou Cui’an’s thoughts but wasn’t bothered. After all, they had just met today, and the other party’s opinions were inconsequential to her.

Thus, she began packing her belongings. Though not extensive, it was a bit scattered. Since she didn’t ask for assistance, she handled everything herself.

Despite the small amount, Ye Leng’an packed swiftly. In a matter of minutes, everything was sorted.

As she finished, Zhu Bixuan entered with a beaming smile, indicating a successful conversation with her family.

It was just as she expected.

“Leng’an, Cui’an, I have good news.” Zhu Bixuan couldn’t wait to share. “My parents agreed to buy me a car. During the National Day holiday, they’ll take me to choose one.”

“Really?” Ye Leng’an smiled lightly. “That’s good.”

She had anticipated this outcome. Zhu Bixuan wouldn’t have mentioned it if she wasn’t confident.

Meanwhile, Zhou Cui’an appeared somewhat awkward. “That’s great. Your family really spoils you!”

Initially, she had doubted that Zhu Bixuan’s family would easily concede to such a significant purchase. Yet, to her surprise, they agreed so quickly.

Was the gap between people really that substantial?

Looking at her two dormmates, who treated buying a car as casually as buying a piece of clothing, made her ponder. But for her, even buying a new outfit required careful consideration, let alone purchasing a car.

Although they were all students at Capital University now, were their starting points really the same?

Zhou Cui’an couldn’t help but feel envious, jealous, and perplexed.

Zhu Bixuan, oblivious to Zhou Cui’an’s inner turmoil, continued discussing excitedly with Ye Leng’an about her car choices.

Although engaged in conversation with Zhu Bixuan, Ye Leng’an glanced at the silent Zhou Cui’an from the corner of her eye before casually retracting her gaze.

Seeing Zhou Cui’an’s expression, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but sigh.

For Zhou Cui’an, this might indeed be a challenge! Transitioning suddenly from a small town to the bustling capital was a significant adjustment. If she couldn’t stay true to herself, it wouldn’t bode well for her. It might even have lasting repercussions.

However, although she noticed, Ye Leng’an had no intention of intervening.

Sharing deep thoughts prematurely was taboo, and they had only just met today. They hadn’t reached that level of familiarity.

Furthermore, Zhou Cui’an was sensitive. If Ye Leng’an broached the topic rashly, she might be misunderstood. Moreover, it was Zhou Cui’an’s personal issue. Only she herself could overcome it.

By evening, their final roommate had yet to arrive.

“Let’s go grab a meal together!” Zhu Bixuan suggested, looking at the sky with a smile. “My treat. It’s a good chance to chat!”

Zhou Cui’an hesitated for a moment, her lips twitching with unease. She quickly declined. “No, I’ll just go to the cafeteria.”

Friendship was reciprocal. If she accepted Zhu Bixuan’s invitation, she’d have to return the favor later. Since she couldn’t, it was best not to go to avoid owing any favors.

“I won’t go either,” Ye Leng’an said, tucking away her small bag. “I already made plans and need to leave soon.”

Not having Huangfu Ruiling accompany her earlier had already displeased him. Skipping dinner with him would only aggravate him further. So, she better go and find him obediently!
