No one believed him at all.
Even Jingzhou smiled disdainfully.
"Classmate Ye Lan, I know you have a lot of face, but we are students. If we pretend to be rich for the sake of face, sooner or later we will be exposed!"
"That's right! We are all classmates, and we are also doing it for your own good!" Class monitor Zhou Shihan also agreed.
Ye Lan picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth, "I disappoint you, I really didn't pretend!"
A trace of disappointment flashed in Zhou Shihan's eyes.
The other students couldn't help but murmured in low voices.
"I want to save face and suffer the consequences!"
"I usually see him as quite low-key, but I didn't expect him to be such a person!"
"I heard that he doesn't even have parents. How can an orphan be so vain?"
"A man's pride is causing trouble! He is not from Jingzhou, he has no family background, and he still looks at toads eating swan meat!"
The muttering was very soft, but Ye Lan heard it very clearly.
The three people in the same dormitory wanted to explain, but they didn't know how to speak.
After all, they didn't know Ye Lan's family background.
However, he usually wears ordinary clothes, so he doesn't think he is too well-off.
Ye Lan didn't care about these at all.
He picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and said loudly: "Everyone is full! I'll go and pay the bill!"
Everyone was stunned.
Zhou Shihan frowned and said: "Classmate Ye Lan, this party is organized by the class. It just so happens that today is Jingzhou's birthday. We plan to pay for it with class fees!"
"Class fee?" Ye Lan asked with some confusion: "When was it paid?"
"It hasn't been confiscated yet. The Jingzhou Alumni Association will pay for today's dinner party in advance, and then we can use the class fee to replenish it for him!" Zhou Shihan explained.
"It's okay! It's just a meal! I'm quite busy on weekdays, so I'll treat you all today!" Ye Lan explained with a smile.
Zhou Shihan still wanted to say something, but Jingzhou spoke leisurely.
"Monitor, let us take advantage of classmate Ye Lan!"
"What kind of glory? You just want to show off in front of us!" the female classmate next to her said disdainfully.
"Since classmate Ye Lan is treating me to a guest, thank you very much!" Some female classmates said angrily.
Ye Lan sighed helplessly, the corners of his mouth twitching.
"Okay, I'll go check out!"
After saying that, he pulled up his chair and walked out of the box.
Going down to the second floor, as soon as he took out his mobile phone, he was stunned.
I was in a hurry today, my phone wasn't charged much, and I had to make calls for so long.
I don’t know when my cell phone ran out of power and shut down.
"Sorry, please bring me a charger!" Ye Lan asked in a low voice while standing in front of the cashier.
The waiter raised his head and glanced at him, pointed to the self-service power bank next to him and said, "If you want to charge it, scan the code yourself!"
"If I could scan the code, why would I need to ask you for a charger?" Ye Lan said angrily.
The waiter spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry, we don't have a charger either!"
"Please help me find it. My phone is out of battery and I can't pay!" Ye Lan explained patiently.
At this moment, the students who came out of the box happened to see this scene.
"My phone is out of battery, so I can't pay?" a female classmate dressed voluptuously said with a smile.
"No wonder Ye Lan was able to catch the school beauty. This time, not only did he pretend to be successful, but he was also able to perfectly avoid paying! High, that's really high!" Another classmate said with a thumbs up.
Other students also cast disdainful glances.
Zhou Shihan stepped forward with a stern face and said with a serious attitude: "Classmate Ye Lan, learning is not only about learning knowledge, but more importantly, learning how to behave! If you play such a trick, you will not be able to go far in society in the future!"
"Squad leader, forget it!" Jingzhou stepped forward, took out his wallet and slapped it on the table.
"I'm paying for this meal!"
Then he looked at Ye Lan again and shook his head in disappointment.
"Classmate Ye Lan, no one will laugh at you if you are poor, but if you have no money and still like to show off, everyone will only despise you!"
Ye Lan's face was as dark as coal and he didn't know what to say.
He never takes a bank card with him when he goes out. He almost always scans the QR code with his mobile phone.
Who knew that the battery would run out of power by such a coincidence!
"Swipe your card!" Jingzhou ignored him and generously handed the bank card to the waiter.
A sharp-eyed female classmate couldn't help but exclaimed.
"It's a limited edition black gold card! It is said that the minimum limit of this card is three million!"
The corners of Jingzhou's mouth raised slightly, and he deliberately explained with a straight face: "Don't spread rumors, I am not a child of any aristocratic family, I am just an ordinary student!"
"You are so low-key, we should call you Young Master Jing!" A male classmate said flatteringly.
"Don't! I don't like to create a sense of distance from everyone!" Jingzhou said, glancing at Ye Lan beside him without leaving any trace, "I don't like to be in the limelight either. Everyone should still call me Jingzhou as before!"
"Young Master Jing is so low-key!" a female classmate said softly, and then her tone was a little higher, "Unlike some people, who obviously have no money, but still pretend to be wealthy! How shameful!"
Ye Lan couldn't argue and could only shake his head helplessly.
Jingzhou glanced at him coldly, raised the bank card in his hand, and said loudly: "Students, I'm treating you to a guest in the second half, let's go to KTV!"
"Listen to Master Jing!"
"That's right, Mr. Jing's birthday is today, you can arrange it!"
The crowd cheered and crowded Jingzhou towards the door.
Almost all the classmates cast disdainful glances at Ye Lan when they passed by.
Only Chen Qi and the other two came over.
"Brother Lan, don't pay attention to Jingzhou. He speaks lightly. He loves to be in the spotlight most of the time!"
"It's just a meal. The four of us will get together next time and treat everyone to a meal!"
Ye Lan looked at the three of them angrily, stretched out his hand and said, "Sweep a power bank for me!"
Du Hai quickly took out his mobile phone and scanned a power bank for him!
The mobile phones started to charge. The three of them looked at each other and whispered: "Brother Lan, let's go first!"
The three of them are quite interested in having fun.
What's more, it's Jingzhou's treat, and everyone is already eager to try it.
Ye Lan waved his hand impatiently, lowered his head and started charging.
Monitor Zhou Shihan slowly approached and lowered his voice.
"Classmate Ye Lan, please apologize to Jingzhou later!"
"Apologise?" Ye Lan raised his head in surprise, "What happened to me?"
A trace of disgust flashed across Zhou Shihan's brows, and she said coldly: "You said you were treating guests, but in the end it was Jingzhou who paid for it! Don't you feel guilty?"
"I will pay him back!" Ye Lan explained.
Zhou Shihan frowned, "Money is a trivial matter. We can become classmates because of fate, not because we are together for money!"
"I hope you can find your way back. If you continue like this, you will regret it!"
"I will pay him back, and the phone's battery is really out!"
Ye Lan held up his cell phone to explain, and it clearly showed 1% battery level.
Zhou Shihan's expression changed.
He said coldly: "If this is the case, then you should not participate in the following activities!"
