Locking Down My Roommate and Boyfriend
墨書 Inktalez
On that day, my roommate flirted with my boyfriend right in front of me, putting on a show. When I confronted her, she insisted that they were just friends. Later, their intimate photos circulated widely on the campus internet, and her wealthy boyfriend broke up with her. She was convinced that I was behind it all and conspired with the other roommates to drown me in the sink.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the day I first noticed something was off.
“Senior, you’re too kind! This necklace is beautiful and really suits me, don’t you think, Su Yi?” Xu Jiaying’s sweet voice rang out as she caressed the necklace around her neck. After hanging up the phone, she shot me a provocative glance. I had seen that necklace in my boyfriend He Yang's purchase history.
“It really is pretty and must be expensive! But our Jiajia is the campus belle; she looks good in anything!” the other two roommates chimed in eagerly. Our dormitory had four people; if Xu Jiaying was the bright moon, we three were the stars revolving around her. After all, Xu Jiaying had always been well-liked—not only because of her pure and lovely white lotus image but also due to her infatuated wealthy boyfriend who spent lavishly on her, allowing us roommates to enjoy plenty of perks.
In my past life, I couldn’t hold back from her provocations and bluntly pointed out that the necklace was a gift from He Yang, directly questioning her about her relationship with him. Why would He Yang give her such an expensive gift? She feigned innocence and claimed it was just a normal exchange between friends.
Normal exchange? What kind of normal exchange warranted a 13,000 yuan necklace as a gift on Qixi Festival? Meanwhile, I—the official girlfriend—only received a cheap silver bracelet that turned out to be merely a promotional gift when I looked it up online.
My questions were met with their ridicule. “Su Yi, what’s wrong with you? Xu Jiaying’s boyfriend Gu Yuan is a rich second-generation heir; he’s one of the wealthiest at our school! Jiajia has everything she wants thanks to Gu Yuan—why would she care about your boyfriend’s necklace? It’s probably your boyfriend who insisted on giving it to her, and Jiajia just felt too embarrassed to refuse!”
“Exactly! You see this necklace as an unattainable treasure, but for Jiajia, it’s just a useless ornament! Want it? Wait until Jiajia gets bored and gives it to you!”
“What’s wrong? Is He Yang's Qixi gift not to your liking? Are you feeling defensive? What era are we in where material things measure affection? You wouldn’t be one of those gold diggers they talk about, would you? Upset because you can’t get what you want?”
“Besides, how can you compare yourself to Jiajia? In her eyes, you might not even be worth that much!”
I was left speechless by their accusations and retreated in defeat, turning away from the dormitory to avoid their sharp tongues. When I returned later, the campus internet suddenly exploded with intimate photos of He Yang and Xu Jiaying. Xu Jiaying’s wealthy boyfriend flew into a rage, broke up with her at lightning speed, and declared he would reclaim all the luxury gifts he had ever given her.
Xu Jiaying had always relied on her wealthy boyfriend, spending money extravagantly without a care. She would often give away gifts she didn’t like or had grown tired of to her dorm mates. But now, suddenly, she was being asked to return everything. How could she possibly gather it all back?
Those luxury items had long been claimed by the people in our dorm. If she were to return them, it would leave everyone in a mountain of debt.
When Xu Jiaying and her roommates discovered the situation, they placed the blame squarely on me. Despite my desperate attempts to explain that I wasn’t responsible, they wouldn’t listen. In a fit of rage, they pinned me down at the sink as a form of revenge. I struggled with all my might, but I was no match for them. In the end, I was left gasping for air, drowning in the water.
