Chapter 727: Chapter 727: Withdraw Money
"Fine! Since that’s the case, wait here, we’ll go get the money. There’s a bank right next door, we’ll be back in ten minutes at most. Don’t you dare run off while we’re gone." Qiang Xinran was determined to vent her spleen today.
Sometimes people are like that, possessed by some madness. Under these circumstances, at this time and place, Qiang Xinran was no longer just trying to humiliate Ma Yao and the other three, but it had become a psychological advantage for her.
"No way! Meng Han, you stay here. I’ll go withdraw the money to prevent them from running off."
Qiang Xinran was simply crazed.
Bai Xiao was speechless.
Meng Han, too, was eager to show off, seeing it as capital for ostentation; both of their families indeed were not short of money, truly not short of money. She even had a thousand yuan left in her own savings book.
That alone would be enough to crush the people before her.
"Good! Make it quick and return fast. I’ll keep an eye on them here. Today’s shopping money we’ll split half and half, let’s show them what ’not lacking money’ means."
Ma Yao and the others were also getting a bit cowed. After all, their previous ferocity was easy to provoke anger in a chain of heated words.
But given a moment to cool off,
They all realized they had been somewhat rash with their pride.
There was really no need to blow this situation out of proportion.
It’s just a skirt, after all, no big deal whether bought or not. 𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑝𝑢𝑏.𝘤𝑜𝘮
If because of a skirt, they all had to go hungry for several months—of course, the school does provide living allowances, so it’s not like they would actually starve to death.
But then, because of a skirt, an entire dorm’s worth of people would have to chip in.
Would He Juan still have the face to wear this skirt?
"We..."
Ma Yao was not a person to speak meek words, and though the two characters "we" managed to pop out, she found she couldn’t continue.
Meng Han sneered, "Scared now? Just apologize nicely to us right now, and we’ll act like nothing’s happened. Take that skirt off."
They relished these kinds of opportunities to make the other side lose face.
Ma Yao glared fiercely; the words felt like a slap on her face.
"Who’s scared? Who’s scared!"
Ma Yao was just that kind of person, never one to admit defeat.
Meng Han mocked the four people in front of her with a derisive look.
"Good, as long as you’re not scared. I just fear that later, some people won’t be able to take out the money, and that would be truly embarrassing. After all, if you can’t afford it, why not just apologize now and take the skirt off? It’s not like the skirt is made of gold."
"Enough with the nonsense."
Bai Xiao led He Juan, Lin Xiang, and Ma Yao to a counter on the side to pick out what she wanted.
Meng Han followed closely behind them, afraid that they might try to run away.
The onlookers gradually dispersed; nobody had the patience to stand around for someone else’s drama. Moreover, it was clear at a glance these were students from the nearby Medical University with their own petty quarrels—not the sort to pull hair and grab collars like fishwives.
Looking at the items Bai Xiao had picked out, Meng Han laughed so hard her belly hurt.
Put on a show, go ahead.
Bai Xiao actually liked quite a few items, eying several styles of underwear. After all, they didn’t have these back home, where most were the kind of sports vest type, and now seeing this style and quality, Bai Xiao decided to buy.
Ma Yao and the others were also tempted upon seeing this and gradually forgot about the earlier dispute over the skirt, but when they asked about the price, wow, one such piece was thirty yuan.
So expensive!
The three of them felt the pinch; they needed to save money for more study materials and books, as studying at Medical University was indeed the most expensive field.
They simply couldn’t afford it.
