One update.
--------------
"Hello, Xinli." Chuxia extended her hand to Li Xinli and said with a smile, "Sister Jingyi introduced you twice, probably thinking I’m not actively enthusiastic enough. To put her mind at ease, how about we shake hands?"
Li Xinli stood up slightly flustered, tightly shook Chuxia’s hand a few tis: "Hello, Chuxia, I’m very glad to et you, please guide more in the future!"
If it were when she first arrived in this era, Chuxia definitely wouldn’t like Li Xinli because this behavior is really too pretentious, too fake. But now, she doesn’t mind; people of this age are just like this. As long as they don’t recite a passage of quotes upon eting, she is already very satisfied. Moreover, it’s their first eting, there’s really nothing to nitpick.
"Sit down and talk..." Chuxia smiled and pulled the other to sit down, "We’ll be classmates from now on, being so polite makes us seem distant, doesn’t it?"
"Yes." Li Xinli replied softly, showing a shy smile, "I’m not good with words, don’t know what to say, anyway, let’s get along well."
Fang Jingyi quickly chid in: "Chuxia, Xinli is a really good girl, sensible, smart and diligent. My parents always compare her with , saying I’m so much older than her, it would be good if I’m even half as good as her.
Yet, such a good child is always wronged at ho. Her sister, Mingming, is two years older than her, but doesn’t do anything and throws everything onto her.
I introduced you two urgently because I think, Chuxia, now that you’re pregnant, it’s best to have a companion with you, so the elders at ho can feel more at ease."
Chuxia smiled gratefully at her, then said, "My parents were worried before saying I don’t know anyone here. If sothing happens, I wouldn’t even have a helper. Thank you, Sister Jingyi." Then she looked at Li Xinli, "Xinli, I’ll have to trouble you in the future."
"Don’t say that, having a companion at the start of the school year, I’m more than happy." Li Xinli’s smile beca much more sincere, "By the way, will you stay in the dorm after school starts?"
Chuxia shook her head: "Given my current condition, it’s not suitable for to stay in the dorm, I’ll report tomorrow and explain my situation to the leaders."
Li Xinli looked at Chuxia seriously: "Then I’ll pick you up in the morning and take you ho after classes. I’ll handle your safety at school."
All the while, Zhao Yulan, who sat quietly next to them with a smiling face, imdiately expressed her gratitude: "Xinli, thank you so very much. I was worried if her father and I go to pick her up daily, people would laugh at us. This is great.
Going forward, you can co back for dinner with Chuxia before leaving. If the school asks you to live outside, you can stay at my ho as a family. What do you think?"
Li Xinli looked embarrassed: "Auntie, you’re being too polite. It’s just on the way, no need for dinner or staying over. If you keep being so polite, I’ll be embarrassed to co over in the future."
"Alright, I won’t say anything extra, you do as you like, you’ll see in ti after we get familiar, neither Sumr nor her dad are hypocritical..." Zhao Yulan said, getting up, she said to Chuxia, "I’ll go talk to your dad, he’s been worried about this lately." After Fang Jingzi and the others arrived, afraid the girls would be uncomfortable speaking, Lin Baohe and brothers Lin Wenbin and Lin Wenjie went to the lounge.
After Zhao Yulan left, Chuxia looked at Li Xinli sincerely and said, "Xinli, please consider my mom’s suggestion, otherwise, we’ll all feel embarrassed."
"Really, no need, it’s not a troubleso thing. I like having company, to be honest, ever since I was little I never had really good friends.
I always wore tattered clothes growing up, everyone found it embarrassing to be friends with , so I’m really happy you with your conditions are willing to be friends with .
Of course, it’s not because of your conditions that I’m happy, I just feel..." Li Xinli waved her hand a little excitedly and smiled, "I don’t know how to say this well, but you should understand my intentions."
"I understand." Chuxia nodded, "You an to say, girls with poor family conditions didn’t want to be friends with you while I am willing, giving you a feeling of finally being respected.
But I’ll be honest, my family’s condition is average, before last year’s New Year’s, we were even too poor to have food, my parents and I lived in a small room given by my grandparents, worried constantly, scared to make them angry and risk losing the room."
