?Chapter 175: Chapter 172: Anger at Their Complacency (Second Update) Chapter 175: Chapter 172: Anger at Their Complacency (Second Update) Qi Lihong looked up and saw Wan Yuan sit down across from her with audacity, grabbing a piece of braised pork from the dish and stuffing it into his mouth while smiling and teasing her, “You didn’t even order any dishes, just eating plain steamed buns, how can you get that down?”
Qi Lihong gave him a glance, didn’t make a sound and continued to bite the white steamed bun in her hand.
“Qi Lihong, isn’t it tiring for you to put on this act every day?”
Wan Yuan finished the braised pork on his plate, and then hastily shoveled down potato shreds and rice together into his mouth. After he polished off everything cleanly, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and leisurely wiped his mouth.
“To truly compare our families, you have both parents, and mine have both passed away; your home is in the city, and my home is just in a small county town. In every way, your home is better off than mine, right? But the scholarship for impoverished students is only granted to you, and when something comes up, they always prioritize you. On what grounds? Just because you’re a girl?”
Upon hearing Wan Yuan’s words, Qi Lihong stopped the chewing motion. She still had half a steamed bun in her hand, but she couldn’t bear to throw it away, yet in front of Wan Yuan, she couldn’t continue eating either. In the end, she could only hold the steamed bun in her palm and slowly place it on her knee under the table.
“Being admitted to Beijing University, our county gives out a bonus. I suppose your side has that too, right? Combined with the school’s rewards and some small amounts from relatives, the first year shouldn’t be too difficult. So, you working part-time and eating so frugally, is all this just purely for the scholarship?”
Saying that, Wan Yuan laughed, “You are really cunning, I never thought about that.”
The hand Qi Lihong had under the table trembled. She wanted to say no, that wasn’t it, it was true she had rewards, but all that money was taken away by her dad, he only gave her the tuition fees; if she didn’t work a job, she would have no living expenses and wouldn’t even have money to buy steamed buns.
