For some reason, the young heiress Zhong Yi found herself in a financial bind.
In the blink of an eye, she became the school’s queen of part-time jobs.
She declared emphatically:
“Don’t invite me to anything that costs more than fifteen yuan!”
Roommate: “I heard the cafeteria’s beef and potato rice bowl is amazing. Want to try it?”
Zhong Yi: “No, I’m going to work.”
Roommate: “Want to go to Professor Yan’s lecture? A senior recommended it.”
Zhong Yi: “No. I just got back from work. I need to rest.”
Roommate: “Want to go to the club fair?”
Zhong Yi: “No.”
Roommate: “Liang Jingzhu will be there too.”
Zhong Yi: “…”
Zhong Yi: “Since you’re inviting me so enthusiastically, I suppose I can make an exception.”
Roommate: “?”
Zhong Yi: “What? Looking at a handsome guy is free. Come on.”
Roommate: “…You’d better be going because it’s free.”

One day after they got together,
Liang Jingzhu asked Zhong Yi why she liked him.
“Because of Su Shi,” Zhong Yi said cryptically.
She wouldn’t explain herself, and Liang Jingzhu didn’t press her.
That is, until he saw the video of her interview for the university magazine.
At the end, they asked her a few questions about her personal life,
including what kind of flowers she liked best.
“If you know, are you going to give me some?” Zhong Yi teased the junior interviewer with a smile.
The girl blushed. Zhong Yi turned to the camera and answered seriously,
“Flowers are beautiful, of course, but I don’t think I have a favorite.
As for my favorite plant, it would have to be bamboo.”
Seeing the girl look puzzled, Zhong Yi winked.
“‘Better to go without meat than to live without bamboo.’
We can’t ignore Master Dongpo’s words.”
