The Family 510_When the Book-Traveling Girl Meets the Reborn Girl

Chapter 510 Keeping Things Low–Key

 Jean was relieved.

 After that awkward family gathering, I hadn’t seen Asher again.

 Despite the weirdness of that day, I was grateful nothing had changed between us.

 Still, neither of us brought up that gathering again.

 Jean looked down at her phone and quickly typed back-

 Jean: “Haha, great minds think alike. See you at Steford Academy then!”

 +0 Pearls

 In the end, it was no surprise that all three of them–Jean, Asher, and Sofia–got epted into Steford Academy.

 That meant they’d get to hang out together in college just like they did in high school.

 After a long, zing summer, Jean officially moved onto campus in early September. She was finally a college student.

 The Gingers had wanted to apany her, to witness such a big milestone in her life.

 But she thought that would be a little too over–the–top.

 Sure, Asher already knew the truth about who I really was, but most people still didn’t. 

 I didn’t want to draw attention to myself. 

 If I started showing off my identity now, what would happen once Sarah showed up? That p in the face would sting

 even more.

 No thanks. 

 In the end, the Gingerspromised. They didn’te to campus in a big, shy.crowd, but they still showed up secretly to watch her orientation from afar.

 Steford Academy offered beautifully designed student apartments–high–end and well–furnished–but the on–campus housing wasn’t all that popr.

 A lot of students from wealthy families chose tomute. Most of them lived in the city already, had drivers, and didn’t find the travel inconvenient.

 Some students even rented luxury apartments near campus so they could live on their own and enjoy more freedom.

 Jean ended up choosing the campus dorms.

 After checking them out, she realized that while they weren’t as fancy as off–campus condos, the university housing was still really nice–and super close to the lecture halls

 Plus, there was one more reason she chose it-

 Sofia was moving in too.

 Of course she wanted to apany her.

 The dorm was a two–bedroom suite, with a cozy living room and two separate private bedrooms.

 It honestly felt like living alone, with plenty of personal space.

 Jean couldn’t help but think, Wow, no wonder rich kids love this school. Even the dorms are nert–level.

 I’d always pictured college dorms as bunk–bed–filled rooms shared by four people.

 After settling in and organizing her stuff, Jean sat alone on her bed and let her thoughts drift.

 If the timeline stayed the same, I’d be meeting Sarah very soon.

 In the original version of the story, Sarah–the female lead of the story from the countryside–had just arrived at Steford when she identally crossed paths with the original Jean.

 She’d stained one of Jean’s expensive designer outfits by mistake, and the sh that followed sparked an ongoing feud. Sarah might’vee from a humble background, but she had dignity. Even when she apologized, she held her heart high

 That infuriated the original Jean. 

 She thought Sarah’s apology was too prideful, too insincere.

 So the rivalry began.

 Jean felt that not only was Sarah unapologetic, but she also kept ignoring her on purpose. 

 Eventually, she decided to get revenge.

 There was a big freshman lecture–something like Ethics or Moral Philosophy–where every first–year student had to gather in a huge lecture hall.

 Since Jean and Sarah weren’t in the same ss, this was her only shot.

 Jean knew that Sarah always had a habit of iming her seat early–usually front and center. She’d <ie in before most people and leave her books there to save the spot.
