There was a traffic accident on the way, and the tram had to stop for half an hour. By the time Sonia returned to school, it was already past seven in the evening—according to the rules, Sword Flower University prohibited students from entering or leaving after seven in the evening. If the students returned late, they would have to register their names. If they were late for more than three times, they would have to eat a thorn, and if a student accumulated three thorns, they would be expelled.

However, the young guard opened the door and let her in without registering her name. Noticing the lecherous look on the guard’s face, Sonia thanked him with a smile on her face and disdain in her heart.

Did he really think that he could get close to beautiful female students just by guarding the door for Sword Flower University?

He didn’t even know his limits. No wonder he was a guard.

Sonia was well aware of the benefits of beauty since she was young, but it was not until she came to Galaxy that she realized how powerful beauty could be. Compared to that poor village, the civilized people in the city were willing to provide more convenience for beauty.

Every time this happened, Sonia would thank the Deity of the Stars sincerely. It was thanks to the Deity of the Stars that the Astra Nation developed into such a civilized and prosperous country, giving her the chance to enter the upper-class society.

If she were in a barbaric country without the canopy of the sky, she would probably be snatched by some barbarian as spoils of war as soon as she showed her first signs of beauty.

She was also thankful to her mother. If her mother had not let her study at home and made her work in the fields instead when she was young, no matter how beautiful she was, she would have become a rugged village girl from exposure to the wind and sun.

After returning to the girls’ dormitory, Sonia was about to push the door open when she heard Louis’ voice. “It’s already past seven. That country bumpkin shouldn’t be coming back tonight, right? Heh, she finally couldn’t hide her true colors anymore. She must have hooked up with some rich businessman.”

Oh, it just so happened to be the time for the classic episode of ‘talking bad behind one’s back’ for mendacious friendship among dormmates? Sonia immediately stopped what she was doing and quietly listened to Louis’ impotent rage.

Adele pretended to dissuade her. “Stop talking, Louis. She might come back—”

“So be it, I’d like to tell her how shameless she is to her face!”

Louis became angrier as she spoke. “You didn’t see her flirtatious looks. She was flirting with other people in class. What’s so great about a country bumpkin other than having a slightly attractive face?”

Hehe, being more attractive than you is what’s great.

Sonia sneered in her heart. Louis was the dormmate she was at odds with the most. Louis was the daughter of a local merchant from Galaxy, and she had a sense of superiority over others because of her appearance. Usually, she would discretely degrade Sonia for being of low birth in the dormitory. However, Sonia was prettier than her. When the two of them appeared together, the number of boys who were friendly to Sonia was obviously an order of magnitude higher.

However, in the first grade, everyone maintained the peace. It was only when Sonia successfully suppressed Louis and took the host’s position in a school event that she completely evoked Louis’ enmity.

Louis wasn’t a pushover, either. She had organized many entertainment activities for the Water Sorcery Department, and even paid out of her own pocket to invite fellow Spells students to have dinner at a high-class restaurant without including Sonia.

With this display of wealth, people pursuing Louis increased too.

After all, men and women alike wanted to take shortcuts in life. Although Sonia was good-looking, marrying the fair and rich beauty that was Louis could save ten years of hard work.

In terms of wealth, Sonia couldn’t win, of course. But she knew only too many ways to snub people.

Every time there was a boy who was wooing Louis, and Louis was a little attracted to him, Sonia would specially create a “chance encounter” and “accidentally” have some physical contact with the boy. She would then give him a few looks, and it was enough to make him fall head over heels for her, even going so far as to give up on Louis and turn around to pursue Sonia.

The reason why Louis’ temper was so explosive tonight was that yesterday, Sonia had “turned” a senior who was wooing Louis recently.

To be honest, Sonia despised Louis’ taste because that senior had nothing but good looks and a condescending attitude. However, in order to snub Louis, she did not mind winking flirtatiously a few times.

Even though Sonia would definitely reject other people’s pursuits, would Louis be willing to date “trash that even a country bumpkin like Sonia didn’t want”? It was no wonder that Louise was so angry that her voice broke.

“Speaking of which, I heard from Desiree that she saw Sonia talking to a peasant woman at noon.” Adele suddenly remembered. “Could that peasant woman be her mother?”

“Ha, to have such a shameless daughter, I bet her mother is also shameless—”

Clang!

Before Sonia could push the door open and flip out, a loud noise came from inside.

She realized something and took half a step back. Just then, the bedroom door opened from the inside and a blonde girl with a single ponytail carrying a sword bag appeared in front of her.

“Good evening, Sonia,” she said.

“Good evening, Ingrit,” said Sonia.

Ingrit left the dormitory without looking back. She must have gone to the training ground for the night training. Inside, Adele and Louis were sitting there in a daze. The fear on their faces had yet to recede.

There was a new dent that Sonia hadn’t seen before on the boxing training target that Ingrit bought.

Sonia came in and closed the door, and peace returned to the dormitory.

Since Ingrit had helped her to teach them a lesson, Sonia naturally wouldn’t do it again. However, she secretly remembered this debt in her heart. Sooner or later, she would make Louis pay it back with interest..
