Chapter 362: Classmates Confrontation

"Perhaps it’s possible that your family is too poor, so you need to come out and work to subsidize your family expenses."

"If that’s the case, you should have told your classmates earlier."

"If each of us donated one and a half cents, that would probably be enough for your family to buy an extra pair of pants, wouldn’t it?"

Chi Yue’s words were blatantly discriminatory.

"Chi Yue, don’t go too far!" Jiang Shuqin confronted Chi Yue directly.

The friends from room 201 looked at each other and finally decided to stand behind Jiang Shuqin, facing Chi Yue.

As for the others, they hesitated for a long time. Some chose to remain neutral, but another part led by Zhan Yi decided to stand behind Chi Yue.

People from both sides glared at each other, locked in a standoff.

Amid her moved feelings, Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but find it somewhat amusing.

She coughed to break the tense atmosphere and said, "Classmate Chi Yue, forget about the donations. If you treat everyone to two portions of our most expensive braised pork rice, that would be helping me."

Upon this remark, everyone turned to look at her.

Chi Yue’s face grew even more disdainful, "Just working for someone else, and you’re really dedicated..."

"Fine, I’ll be generous and treat everyone to your most expensive braised pork rice so that your boss can increase your wages by twenty cents."

This statement made the friends from room 201 unhappy again, but Xia Chuyi calmly nodded and smiled, "Okay then, do you friends choose to take away or eat here?"

"Hmm, I see you didn’t bring bowls, so you must want to eat here."

"Oops, that’s not right. If you eat here, two servings might not be enough for you all."

"How about this, Classmate Chi Yue, you pay the whole sum, and I’ll take down the names of the classmates. Later, when they come to eat, they won’t need to pay again."

Chi Yue was startled.

Xia Chuyi’s words seemed flawless, but she felt as if Xia Chuyi had set a trap for her.

After a thought, Chi Yue cautiously asked, "How much is the most expensive braised pork rice in your shop?"

"With food coupons, one serving of vegetarian braised rice is twenty-five cents, without coupons it’s forty cents," Xia Chuyi calmly responded.

After confirming the price, Chi Yue scoffed, "We have nearly twenty classmates here, two servings each at eighty cents, all together, it won’t exceed twenty."

"Here, Xia Chuyi, this is twenty. Take it, but be accurate with the names, don’t get them mixed up or lost."

Chi Yue had a condescending attitude.

"We from room 201 won’t eat!" someone led the outcry, and the friends from room 201 collectively opted out.

Everyone couldn’t bear Chi Yue’s attitude towards Xia Chuyi, even the bystanders.

Only Xia Chuyi, ever amused, said, "Don’t say that, Shuqin, Zheng Yan, you really shouldn’t."

"If you don’t eat, I’ll make less money!"

She was particularly serious in her plea but only received a dismissive laugh from Chi Yue, "Humph, Second Brother Ou must have been blind to fall for such a vulgar person like you!"

In-the-know Jiang Shuqin: ...

Xia Chuyi didn’t mind; her eyes, crescent moons, she smiled, "Yes, I’m just that vulgar. If Classmate Chi Yue would please invite classmates to eat like this every day, I’d be even happier."

"Hmph!" Chi Yue slammed down the money on the table, crossed her arms, held her chin high, and sweeping a glance at Xia Chuyi’s shop, said, "Such an unimpressive restaurant, trying it out for novelty is enough."
