On the other side of things...
Crimson shot Flora a text, saying everything with Aisha had been sorted out. Flora, in the middle of a chat with Connor, quickly replied. Just then, a video call from Jules popped up. She hadn't meant to answer it, but her fingers, which were typing away, accidentally hit the accept button.
On the screen, Jules appeared, wearing an old, worn-out cardigan, his face smudged with dirt. He looked pretty rough. Behind him stretched an endless mountain range. He rubbed his hands together, his voice dripping with insincerity, "Flora..."
Flora knew him too well; if he was calling, he was definitely out of cash. She just stared at him, saying nothing.
Still rubbing his hands, Jules continued, "I heard you sold your dance copyright for fifty million. That's impressive! I'm out in the sticks in Quzhou right now. Conditions here are tough, but no worries, I'm not afraid of a bit of hardship for the sake of medicine."
Flora watched his performance quietly: "Account number."
His hands stopped their busywork and rested on his hips, his smile growing wider, "Oh, come on, do I look like someone who covets that fifty million? I'll send my account number right away."
"It's fine, I'm hanging up."
"Wait, I do have something to tell you... Never mind, I'll talk to you about it when I get back. The experiment here is almost over; I'll catch up with you then."
Flora responded indifferently.
...
Morning was packed with classes, and so was the afternoon, all of them core courses and beyond tough! Cynthia and Eilies were both wiped out, collapsing onto their beds in the dorm as soon as they got back, barely able to keep their eyes open.
"Do we still have that web design class tonight?" Cynthia could barely keep her eyes open.
Eilies answered, "Yep, and the teacher left us a really tough assignment."
Cynthia groaned, getting up to turn on her computer. "Whoever recommends studying medicine deserves a lightning strike!"
