“We’re friends, so no need to pay. Just let my dad bring some back casually.”

Shi Yu didn’t have the habit of taking money from friends, mainly because she really didn’t lack money.

“No, a gift and bringing something back are two different things. You should charge what you should charge. Also, if you don’t establish a correct value system and always act so carelessly, you might get sold someday.”

Xiao Qian’s advice did not make Shi Yu take it to heart, but she didn’t expect it to come true someday.

Dong Yi came back after a while, and Xiao Qian could guess from her expression that she didn’t get any results from the phone call.

Jobs are especially hard to find in this area with several universities, especially tutoring jobs. Those posted on flyers have long been snatched up by others. “Did you find anything suitable?” Xiao Qian asked.

Dong Yi shook her head.

“Wait outside the Talent Market on Saturday, hold a sign saying ‘tutor’, and try your luck.” Xiao Qian said that outside the Talent Market, there’s a street where college students stand, each holding a sign, all looking for part-time jobs.

Dong Yi nodded.

“Are you going to work during your first year?” Shi Yu asked, and Dong Yi answered with a hum.

“Won’t you join any school clubs? If you work, then your time will be fully occupied.”

“I won’t go.” Dong Yi came to the university through a national policy of reducing tuition fees for poor areas. She had to live frugally, and she could only apply for a scholarship next September. Therefore, she couldn’t afford not to work during this time.

“Boss Qian, will you join any? I joined the Drama Club. Come with me, the Club President is so handsome.”

“I won’t go, I don’t have time.”

Xiao Qian didn’t want to go out to work since she didn’t lack money, but she also didn’t want to join any clubs like rich princess Shi Yu. She wanted to spend more time studying academic matters.

“But I really want you to go…” Shi Yu felt it was a pity. Xiao Qian’s performance at the welcome event is still being discussed. She would definitely be a beautiful landscape in the club.

“As long as you have a good time, naive girl. Not everyone is like you, not having to consider their future.” Xiao Qian tapped her head and then said to Dong Yi.

“Da Yi, Shi Touyu has a few bottles of cosmetics that are about to expire and wanted to share with us. Take some.”

“I don’t use them.”

“Take them. If you don’t, they’ll just be thrown away.”

Dong Yi reluctantly accepted them after hearing that it would be wasteful, and sincerely said to Shi Yu, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome…” Shi Yu felt a little embarrassed since Dong Yi was so serious. None of her friends were as earnest as her.

When Dong Yi climbed up to her bed, Shi Yu gave Xiao Qian a thumbs-up, saying that Boss Qian knew how to deal with people.

Xiao Qian shrugged and picked up her book to read.

Different people, born in different environments, have different characters. Although her two roommates came from very different backgrounds, they were essentially good kids.

Dong Yi would change into her white sleeping gown in the dormitory. She only wore two sets of clothes outside, which she took great care of.

“Da Yi, do you particularly like white?”

Shi Yu thought of the campus horror story whenever she saw white.

“Not particularly, I have no special preferences.” Dong Yi wore whatever clothes she had. When she was young, she wore clothes donated from the outside world. As long as it kept her warm, she didn’t care about the style.

Dong Yi looked down at her pajamas. “These two sets were clearance items that I bought from the Night Market, ten yuan each, or two for fifteen yuan.”

They were comfortable to wear, so the cheaper, the better for Dong Yi.

“Pfft.”

Xiao Qian, who was reading, laughed.

“Boss Qian, what are you laughing at?” Shi Yu asked.

“I’m laughing that a generation of horror legends originated from two for fifteen yuan.”

There were many past life rumors about Dong Yi, such as coming from a Witch Family and liking white clothes, dying with her eyes wide open, and even more absurd ones like Dong Yi had watched Midnight Bell, mimicking Sadako and wearing white clothes even after death.

As it turned out, she just wanted to save money and bought discounted clothes from the Night Market.

So, it’s said that most legends aren’t reliable; they’re just over-interpretations. The truth is usually simple, and Xiao Qian doesn’t believe in ghosts at all.

If there were ghosts, though, she wished her Xiao Wei could come back and see her.

Thinking of her daughter, Xiao Qian focused even more on studying early childhood psychology. She must learn quickly to see her daughter as soon as possible.

“Now, seeing white just makes me feel uncomfortable…” Shi Yu muttered quietly, tightening the red cloth tied to her bed.

From the look of it, Dong Yi wouldn’t change her pajamas, so Shi Yu got scared by the story and went to Boss Qian for help while Dong Yi went to the restroom.

“Boss Qian, can you find a way to make Da Yi change her clothes and stop wearing the white dress? It’s too scary.”

“Are you begging me?” Xiao Qian put down her book, and Shi Touyu nodded desperately.

Xiao Qian beckoned, and Shi Yu leaned in to listen to her whisper a bunch of things.

Shi Yu’s eyes lit up, “Ok, I’ll do it right away!”

She took out her painting pigments and rushed to the bathroom. Dong Yi was squatting there washing her clothes when Shi Yu did as Xiao Qian said, shaking her hand and yelling, “Ah!”

The pigment was all dumped into the basin, staining the white pajamas inside and some on the one Dong Yi was wearing.

“Da Yi! I’m sorry!” Shi Yu cried, looking at the white pajamas in the basin turned multicolored and yelled dramatically.

“It’s alright. Just wash it.”

“It won’t come off! This is a special dye I used for painting! Da Yi, I’m a sinner!”

Shi Yu suddenly sat down on the bathroom tiles, hugging Dong Yi’s legs and said guiltily, “I ruined your two for fifteen yuan! I’m so terrible!”

“It’s okay. I’ll still wear it after it dries.”

“No, you can’t. This won’t wash off, and it’s my fault! If you don’t let me atone, I’m done for. My mom said I have bad luck this year. If I cause trouble, I’ll be cursed…”

“Uh, what do you want to do?”

“Let me give you two new sets of pajamas, okay?”

“Really, you don’t have to. This stained one is still wearable.”

“Mom! I’m so sorry! My misfortune is coming!” Shi Yu hugged Dong Yi’s legs, howling as if it were true, and she had also learned about an actor’s self-cultivation since she joined the Drama Club.

“Da Yi, she has a lot of clothes. Just let her compensate you. She’s making so much noise I can’t read.”

Xiao Qian came over, and Shi Yu nodded desperately, willing to do anything as long as Dong Yi didn’t wear white and scare her.

“Right, Da Yi, I have two sets of pajamas in my clothing that I’ve worn and wanted to throw away. I’ll give them to you, okay?”

Dong Yi looked at her two roommates and nodded, “Alright.”

Shi Yu immediately jumped up, fished the terrifying white dress out of the basin and threw it away with conviction, also pulling off Dong Yi’s stained clothes and rummaging out two long-sleeved pajamas from her suitcase.

“Here you go, one Big Mouth Monkey, one Robot Cat, both with a hat. It’s even warmer when it’s cold outside. What season is it, and you’re still wearing sleeveless clothes.”

Shi Yu’s pajamas were all cartoon-themed, and Dong Yi thought they looked fairly new, so she hesitated but accepted them since both Xiao Qian and Shi Yu insisted. Thus, the white dress was retired.

However, that night, the dormitory legend was updated again, saying that the Big Mouth Monkey had become a spirit and a Big Mouth Monkey floated around the campus at night….
