1124 Help Me. We Are Classmates After All  She had seen for herself that Qiao Nan scored very well in all areas.

In terms of technical knowledge, Qiao Nan definitely knew more than her. She had wanted to seek Qiao Nan’s advice on how the latter could excel in social practice although she also came from a smaller town.

She had never seen Qiao Nan participate in any of the social practices organized by the faculty.

Yu Xiaoxiao could not figure this out. However, unlike Lü Yan, she did not think that there was a problem with Qiao Nan. Lü Yan felt that the school must have helped Qiao Nan cover up and deliberately been lenient in giving her scores.

Yu Xiaoxiao knew that the school would not do that. As such, Qiao Nan was truly capable.

If she could become closer to Qiao Nan, learn more from her, and improve her social practice, she would be able to attain the second-prize scholarship in the next semester.

In terms of technical knowledge, Yu Xiaoxiao was lacking a little behind Qiao Nan.

After the scores and scholarship results were out, Yu Xiaoxiao spent a lot of effort to obtain this piece of information. She had been researching the differences between her and the recipients of the first and second prize scholarships.

In the end, Yu Xiaoxiao discovered that the difference in the examination scores for everyone, except for Qiao Nan, this pervert, was, in fact, not huge. She even received slightly higher marks in the examination than a second-prize scholarship recipient.

She fell behind in the area of social practice. That had dragged down the rest of her other scores.

If she could improve her scores on social practice, she could not only receive the second-prize scholarship but also rise through the ranks.

Yu Xiaoxiao did not hold any class committee roles in the class. She was also a loner in the club that she joined.

As such, even if there were good social practice opportunities, it would not be Yu Xiaoxiao’s turn to participate in them.

If Yu Xiaoxiao wanted to have a breakthrough in this area, she could only learn from Qiao Nan and find other avenues to do so. She could improve her aggregate score then.

It was difficult to find other ways. After considering for a long time, Yu Xiaoxiao decided to bow to Qiao Nan, her former dormitory mate.

After knowing Yu Xiaoxiao’s thoughts, Qiao Nan was amused. “If you were in my shoes, would you agree?”

“Why not?” Yu Xiaoxiao blushed. Her eyes were evasive and she avoided looking at Qiao Nan’s eyes. She also dared not admit that she would definitely disagree if she was Qiao Nan. “In that way, we can keep each other company.”

Yu Xiaoxiao hinted to Qiao Nan that the latter was having her earlier meal alone.

If she were to move out and stay nearer to Qiao Nan, they could keep each other company when they left and went home.

Qiao Nan gave Yu Xiaoxiao a thumbs-up. “You really don’t know where I am staying? You should have done your homework regarding the houses in that area. The rent is not cheap. Have you decided on which place to rent?”

It was not because Qiao Nan looked down on Yu Xiaoxiao. The Yu family was not wealthy too.

In a place like the capital, even the rent for a house as big as a nest was not cheap. This had been a huge headache for Beijing drifters.

As a student, if Yu Xiaoxiao really wanted to move out, her one month of living allowance might not be enough to pay for the rent, let alone other expenses.

Even if it was enough, would Yu Xiaoxiao be able to fill her tummy with water during that one month?

Upon hearing Qiao Nan’s question and doubt, Yu Xiaoxiao’s face turned even redder. “Qiao Nan, we’re classmates after all. In the past, you were staying with Shi Qing. Now that Shi Qing has transferred to another school, the place that she used to stay in is unoccupied, no? Can you rent it to me at a cheaper price?”

Qiao Nan crossed her arms. “Cheaper. In your view, how much cheaper?”

“…” Yu Xiaoxiao’s face was as red as fire. The number was in her throat but she could not bring herself to say it.

Yu Xiaoxiao’s one month of living allowance was barely enough to meet her needs.

If she had to take out another sum of money to pay the rent, she would need to suffer in terms of food consumption.

Facing the extraordinary high property price in the capital, Yu Xiaoxiao could only afford a very low sum of money even if she were to reduce her expenses on clothes and consumption.

She was hoping that Qiao Nan would take into account that they were classmates and lent her the unoccupied place which was previously occupied by Shi Qing.

As for the rental fee, of course, Qiao Nan could accept a small sum as a token.

Yu Xiaoxiao heard that that house did not belong to Shi Qing’s family. It was lent to Qiao Nan by someone. To put it bluntly, Qiao Nan was not the owner of that house.

After she moved in, the money would go into Qiao Nan’s pocket regardless of how much she paid her.

No matter what, Qiao Nan would not lose out as she would be renting out a place that did not belong to her.

However, if Qiao Nan really did not lack that meager sum of money or when Yu Xiaoxiao was occasionally cash-strapped, on the account that they were classmates, Qiao Nan would not be so strict on her.

Yu Xiaoxiao had a hundred reasons in her heart when she shamelessly put up the request of staying together with Qiao Nan. However, in her heart, she knew that she was taking huge advantage of Qiao Nan.

However, she had no choice. If she did not do that, she would not have any more opportunities.

In the last semester, she had been observing Qiao Nan.

During weekdays, Qiao Nan would definitely report to school on time regardless of whether there were classes. If there were classes held, she would attend them. If not, she would nest in the school’s library for the entire day without going to other places.

During the weekends, there were no classes. She would not see Qiao Nan in the school at all.

Since Yu Xiaoxiao stayed in the dormitory, it was not so convenient for her to leave and enter the school.

She had wanted to find out what Qiao Nan always did during weekends but she did not have the opportunity to do so.

However, that would be completely different if she were to stay with Qiao Nan.

When she heard Qiao Nan wake up, she could also follow suit. She would follow Qiao Nan wherever she went.

After confirming the social practice that Qiao Nan was involved in, she would find a way to fight for the opportunity without the need for Qiao Nan’s help.

What she lacked now was just a chance to find the doorsill.

“What is wrong? Why aren’t you talking? How much are you prepared to pay me each month?” Yu Xiaoxiao did not speak but that did not mean that Qiao Nan was willing to let it go so easily.

“I don’t have much money. Can you make an exception? Anyway, that house does not belong to you, right?” Yu Xiaoxiao mustered up the courage and said.

Qiao Nan shook her head. “No. It’s precisely because the house is not mine. I am not so shameless as to stay in someone’s house, rent it out, and take the money at the same time. Besides, even if I pass your rent to the owner of the property, he doesn’t need it. If he did, he wouldn’t have lent the house to me. He could have rented it to anyone. One room can already fetch a rent that is more than ten times what you can afford, let alone the whole house.”

There was no need to talk about money. Yu Xiaoxiao did not have money.

There was no need to talk about relationships. Yu Xiaoxiao did not even know who the owner of the house was. What relationship was there to speak and make use of?
