Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 395 Pretending to be poor was just to test you.

When school started, Jiang He changed her previous disheveled appearance.

I've also changed out of the old clothes I used to wear.

The face is still the same face, but the feeling it gives is a little different.

Like a pearl covered in dust, it wipes away the dirt and shines with dazzling light.

Jiang He's roommates all remarked that she hadn't paid enough attention to her appearance before.

His clothes were all very old-fashioned, and he looked drab and disheveled.

She's wearing a white sweater, jeans, and a black cotton-padded coat.

This gives college students their youthful vigor.

In addition, Jiang He already had a beautiful face.

She's now a stunning beauty.

A beautiful woman who doesn't dress up can only be described as not unattractive.

But with a simple makeover, she becomes an absolutely stunning beauty.

There is no doubt that Jiang He is beautiful.

If it weren't for this face.

Zhou Chen would never have noticed Jiang He from the beginning.

Jiang He continued to work part-time at the casserole shop, just like before.

Zhou Chen had a very bad winter vacation.

My long-awaited trip abroad has fallen through.

Ever since that unpleasant parting of ways among the three.

The atmosphere in the Zhou family was always heavy.

Zhou's father rarely came home.

Zhou's mother went straight back to her parents' home and has not returned since.

Zhou Chen stays at home every day.

Zhou's father told him to stop going out and fooling around, so he canceled his credit card.

Zhou Chen only had the money he earned from his part-time job.

The little money Zhou Chen earned from working part-time for a semester was only enough for him to go out and have fun once.

Not to mention tourism.

Zhou Chen could only stay at home and play video games.

Whenever anyone invited him, Zhou Chen would use his father as a shield.

Everyone knows that the Zhou family suffered a crushing defeat this time.

It's normal that they don't let Zhou Chen go out to play.

Zhou Chen didn't go anywhere during the entire winter break.

Utterly boring.

I rushed to school as soon as the semester started.

It's not as interesting as school.

The winter break has passed, and we still don't know what's going on with Zhou's parents. They're still ignoring each other.

Meanwhile, neither of them paid any attention to Zhou Chen.

They didn't even send Zhou Chen his living expenses.

Zhou Chen called the two of them, and they hung up immediately. The second time, they blocked him.

Good grief, these two really don't want to take care of their son anymore.

Now, Zhou Chen will really have to rely on part-time jobs to earn his living expenses.

That was just a persona created by Zhou Chenli.

But now, Zhou Chen is really going to stick to that part-time job for the sake of the free meals.

Zhou Chen can simply take other daily necessities from home and have his aunt prepare them for him.

But he really has to figure out how to get food on his own.

Lunch and dinner are sorted out, now we need to figure out breakfast.

Zhou Chen plans to do the same as Jiang He and find a part-time job at a breakfast shop.

As for the weekend, we'll eat at home.

While we're at it, let's see if the relationship between Zhou's parents has improved.

Zhou Chen felt that he could hold on for a while longer.

Then Zhou's father will give him living expenses.

Zhou Chen went to work at the casserole shop.

Then I met Jiang He, who was a real eye-catcher.

Jiang He was talking to Sister Zhu.

Sister Zhu praised Jiang He for looking more beautiful after returning from the New Year holiday.

Jiang He had always had short hair, and it was the kind of bowl cut she cut herself.

But now my hair has grown long enough to tie up.

It made Jiang He's face look more delicate.

Although the clothes aren't from any big brands, they make me look very refreshed and my overall style has improved.

Now that I'm a grown woman, it's time to learn how to dress myself up properly.

Some small changes won't cost much money.

Jiang He and Sister Zhu were chatting happily over there.

Zhou Chen was unhappy to see the change in Jiang He.

How come things have changed so much after just one winter break?

Is this still the Jiang He he knew before?

Why are you dressed so nicely?

Wouldn't it be better to use the money for new clothes to buy some food?

She thought that once she could earn money, she could buy this and that?

Did she think she had saved a lot of money?

This amount of money isn't even enough for him to have one game.

Zhou Chen felt it was necessary to have a serious talk with Jiang He.

Think about what triggered this argument between Zhou's mother and father—wasn't it Zhou's mother's reckless spending of money?

Mr. Zhou got angry, and the two are still arguing.

He wouldn't allow Jiang He to squander the family fortune like Zhou's mother.

The desire to spend money grows little by little.

If he doesn't keep an eye on Jiang He, she'll start going on and on shopping sprees.

She will become the second Zhou mother.

During the part-time job, Zhou Chen kept a straight face and ignored Jiang He.

He needs to make Jiang He realize that she is wrong.

Jiang He naturally saw Zhou Chen's sour face towards him.

One second they're smiling at a customer, the next they're giving them a sour look.

She's really a master of changing her expression.

Part-time job ended.

Jiang He cooked a pot of rice noodles and enjoyed her lunch.

Zhou Chen saw that Jiang He was happily eating by herself.

He sat down in front of Jiang He with the casserole in his hand, slamming the casserole heavily on the table.

"Jiang He, can't you see me? Don't you have anything to say to me?"

Jiang He stared at Zhou Chen for a while, then suddenly realized and said, "I remember now."

You said you had a surprise for me when school started, and that I should look forward to it.

I got so busy that I forgot.

Are you planning to give me a surprise gift?

What surprise is it?

I really can't guess.

Jiang He looked at Zhou Chen expectantly.

Zhou Chen then remembered that he had indeed said this before.

But that was just something he said casually to fool Jiang He, and he forgot about it afterwards.

Not to mention how stifling I was during the rest of the winter break.

He had no time or inclination to prepare any gifts.

There were no gifts, and no surprises either.

But he said those words himself.

He couldn't just say no.

Originally, Zhou Chen wanted to criticize Jiang He.

In this way, it became that Zhou Chen had done something wrong.

He could no longer blame Jiang He.

"You finally remembered."

Seeing how happily you and Sister Zhu were chatting, you didn't even think of me.

I'm not happy right now, so I don't want to give you this surprise gift anymore.

"Yes, yes, it's my fault for ignoring you."

But I noticed you had a long face the whole time, and I don't know why you got angry.

I didn't ask too many questions while I was at Sister Zhu's shop.

You said you'd prepare a surprise gift for me, so I've prepared a surprise gift for you too.

How about we exchange surprise gifts?

"Jiang He, I have to say something about you."

You don't earn money easily, so you can't spend it so extravagantly.

Look, you got a new phone last year.

Then look at yourself; these clothes are new, aren't they?

And did you get your hair done? That costs money.

Can't you still wear all the clothes you had before?

It's not broken, why buy a new one?

Look at me, this undershirt I'm wearing, the collar is all torn, but I keep wearing it.

You must recognize this as a mistake.

Jiang He looked at Zhou Chen's ripped collar; wasn't that exactly the design of this outfit?

Zhou Chen can wear tattered clothes?

Zhou Chen discarded a piece of clothing the moment a thread came loose.

"Yes, your collar is torn."

Zhou Chen, you're too frugal.

The surprise gift I prepared for you is clothes.

It's a good time to change out of this tattered outfit.

My gift came at just the right time.
