“Hey! Who is in there? You guys are loud! Open the door!”
The cleaning lady’s voice came from outside as Violet was about to press Lina’s head into the pail of water.
The woman was larger in size, and her voice was loud as well. When she noticed students gathered around a
commotion, making loud noises as she cleaned the floor, she immediately sensed that someone was being bullied.
In this elite university, there were some terrible kids who felt entitled to do as they pleased simply because of their
wealthy backgrounds. Bullying was a daily occurrence.
Being a person of justice, the woman could not tolerate such behavior. She took her broom and slammed the door
in an attempt to intervene and put an end to the bullying.
Violet was scared, so she let go. The moment she let go, Lina got up suddenly, held her wrist, and twisted it!
The former released a painful shriek.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLina seized the opportunity to run. She could still hear Violet’s clique calling her a “little b*tch” as she ran
downstairs.
…
Lina did not have any class in the afternoon, so she asked her best friend, Gia Chapman, to accompany her to the
beach.
The beach in Jangasas was comfortable. The sand was fine and smooth, and the sand granules were almost white.
It was so clean that it was mesmerizing. It was warm to step on after basking in the sun and had a calming effect
on the mind.
It had been a while since Lina had relaxed like this. She shut her eyes to take a deep breath and chuckled.
“You still love the beach so much, huh?” Gia sat next to her and took a deep breath like she did.
Lina smiled at her. “Yeah, I don’t know why. I actually have a fear of water, and I dare not get into the sea. But it’s
different sitting by the beach. It’s mood-lifting for me to look at the sea.”
“Centrolis is right there.” Gia pointed far away. “It’s on the other side of the sea. I must go there one day!”
“Are you not going to further your studies?” asked Lina.
“School isn’t fun…” Gia pouted. “I’d rather leave Jangasas soon. My family… Ugh, it irritates me to look at them!”
Lina patted her shoulder. She had no idea how to comfort her.
They were girls from a normal family, but their families had sent them to this elite university, making them feel like
aliens in the university.
Gia’s parents said she must be in the upper-class circle to get a rich husband. That was how they insisted on
sending her to university. It was their investment in her, and they wanted her to repay them even more in the
future.
However, Lina’s parents were different.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey were not well-educated and had been running a small supermarket all their lives. Although they were not
wealthy, they were worse off than some but better off than many.
Her parents hoped she could study well and attend the best university. “You get what you pay for” was their
mentality, and the same applied to the university she attended.
Instead of sending her to a normal university, they would rather spend money to send her to an elite one.
The university students would be studying at this university for two years in the country and two years abroad. They
would then be sent overseas for grad school if they had outstanding grades. That was why Lina’s parents had bit
the bullet and sent Lina here.
However, Lina was going to study abroad soon, yet she had offended the Grists.
Lina was drawing circles in the sand with her finger. The wound on her face was still stinging, “Gia, do you think I
got my parents into trouble?”
“You mean by getting the Grists boycotted?”
