The Real Young Master Is Still Pretending to Be Poor at the Elite Academy Today

Jiang Yuan transmigrates into a novel about a prestigious academy as the cannon-fodder real young master. Along with the fake young master, who is part of the protagonist's clique, he enrolls in the school.

One is a distinguished young gentleman adored by everyone, with all eyes on him.

The other is a scholarship student nobody cares about, whom everyone looks down on.

In an academy with rigid classes and an entrenched hierarchy, someone who cannot even afford a uniform ends up at the very bottom.

But no one knows that the original Jiang Yuan isn't poor at all. He's so rich that the money in his bank account could buy the Jiang family ten times over.

Unfortunately, he was manipulated until he was barely in his right mind, and put on an act of living in poverty.

Jiang Yuan has no interest in pretending to suffer, but after he sees the unread email in his inbox, he immediately changes his mind.

In public, he remains the same poor, timid scholarship student. In private, he lives a more luxurious life than the nobles in the school's F4.

On the first day, he turns down the steak F1 offers him, squatting in a corner with steamed buns and pickles. That night, he eats seafood flown in by helicopter by his butler at his 800-square-meter mansion.

On the second day, he throws away the expensive uniform F2 gave him, works part-time to save up for a secondhand one, then returns home and cuts a few holes in his bespoke uniform with scissors.

On the third day, he returns the umbrella F3 lent him, only to realize that, through a moment of carelessness, he brought his own instead.

F3 runs his fingers over the gilded engraving on the umbrella's ribs and glances at him.

Jiang Yuan keeps a straight face. "It's 9.9 yuan with free shipping on Pinduoduo. Want one? I'll send you the link."

At first, Xie Wang only knew that the Jiang family's fake young master was dating his roommate. Later, he gradually began to notice the boy who always wore a faded, shabby uniform.

Bold and arrogant, he smiles as he tramples F4 underfoot.

Xie Wang touches the boy's collarbone, rubbed red beneath his faded secondhand uniform. His eyes darken. "Who left this mark?"

Jiang Yuan's eyes redden at the corners as he grits his teeth. "A dog!"
