Chapter 495: Chapter 475: The Dormitory Struggle (14)

After pondering for a long time and coming up with nothing, Luo Qianqian gloomily climbed into bed and took a nap with her head covered.

But until the naptime ended, Xiu Ran hadn’t returned to the dormitory, and Zhang Yun was somewhat worried. She made a phone call that was hung up on, and soon received a message in reply, "Something came up, I’ll be back in the evening."

"No problem, we’ll ask her when she comes back tonight, lest there be some trouble she’s unwilling to talk about," Cong Rong assured Zhang Yun, then left with her textbooks.

Xiu Ran being gone for an entire noon was noticed by others, but no one mentioned Cao Yingying’s absence.

Luo Qianqian also left the dormitory with her textbooks, her face etched with ’I didn’t sleep well, don’t mess with me’.

"Are you Luo Qianqian?" But who knew that as soon as she walked downstairs, a girl stopped her. The girl eyed her up and down as if she wanted to see right through her with X-ray vision.

"Is there something you want?" Luo Qianqian couldn’t even be bothered to lift her eyes, sparing not a glance for the girl.

The girl huffed coldly, "With that look of yours, tsk tsk, really poor taste." After saying that, she walked away.

Luo Qianqian raised her head, watching the girl leave, looking utterly confused. What was her problem now? How could she get dissed just walking along?

She went to the classroom with a face full of gloom.

Seeing Elvis already sitting there, next to her usual spot, she arched an eyebrow but didn’t plan on changing seats. She had a clear conscience.

"Has anyone been asking about you these last couple of days?" Elvis raised his eyebrows in delight when he saw her sit down, and then casually spoke up, passing her notebook to her.

Luo Qianqian nodded absentmindedly, "How do you know? Don’t tell me it’s because you’re a ’gentleman’."

Elvis was momentarily at a loss for words after Luo Qianqian’s retort, then finally said, "Because I guessed, sitting with a great-looking guy like me."

"Such cheek," Luo Qianqian didn’t argue. It was a possible reason, and she was well aware of it.

"Did you remember what I told you?" Elvis lowered his voice, obviously not wanting the nearby students to hear, "Stay away from that person." Although he didn’t mention the person by name, Luo Qianqian understood he was talking about Han Chen.

It wouldn’t be him, surely. It had to be the former school idol, Han Chen.

Luo Qianqian nodded nonchalantly, not taking it to heart. How could that person possibly intersect with her life? They were different in age, major, and gender. How could there be any overlap?

Elvis noticed her disinterest, but chose to say no more.

After class, Luo Qianqian packed up her bag and turned to leave.

Elvis didn’t follow her; he just watched her go.

He couldn’t get too close; Luo Qianqian was vigilant, and the current issues were enough to keep her three meters away from him. If she hadn’t distanced herself yet, she probably saw him as some kind of shield.

For example, Xi Meng.

"Don’t think you’re so great just because you’re a good-looking foreigner." Xi Meng, with her bag slung over her shoulder, walked from behind to the front, stopped in front of Elvis, tapped on the desk in front of him, and then left.

Elvis chuckled coldly, causing the remaining people in the classroom to shiver, mentally placing him in the ’respect but keep distance’ category.

Of course, Luo Qianqian was oblivious to all this. Right now, she couldn’t help but smile as she saw the young man suddenly appearing at the school’s teaching building entrance, and with a leap, she threw herself into his arms, "Brother Jiayou, what brings you here? Why didn’t you tell me in advance?"

"I just came to try my luck, I was going to call you if I didn’t find you anyway," Lin Jiayou replied with a simple smile, then took Luo Qianqian’s backpack from her, "Shall we invite your friend too? I’m treating for lunch?"

"Yay!" Luo Qianqian nodded happily and flipped out her phone to make contact.

Lin Jiayou’s gaze, however, landed on a figure at the teaching building’s window, but by the time he looked, there was no one there anymore.

"Brother Jiayou, is it just the start of the school year?" After making the call, Luo Qianqian arranged to meet Qin Nuan at the school gate, taking everything from the dormitory that Cao Yingying could carry.

"Mm-hmm, you don’t seem to have gotten any tanner. Slacking off, huh?" Lin Jiayou said with a smile.

Luo Qianqian crossed her arms in dissatisfaction: "Who’s slacking off? I am the outstanding role model." After saying that, she touched her face and made a bitter expression: "Actually, I did get tanner. Applying all that sunscreen was such a waste of my loving care."

"Impressive. What do you feel like eating later?" Lin Jiayou wasn’t worried at all about Luo Qianqian having an early romance, considering she had brought someone home early on.

"Anything, I’m not picky." Luo Qianqian said proudly, lifting her chin, then with concern, she asked, "How’s Mom doing?"

"Auntie’s belly is quite big now; it really is frightening to look at," Lin Jiayou sighed. "Auntie even asked me to bring you some food. ’Fragrance Comes’ has vacuum-packed the food, it can last a month without a problem."

"Really?" Luo Qianqian’s face lit up with excitement. Then she looked around Lin Jiayou, pouting after a moment: "Where is it?"

"It’s in my dorm. I’ll bring it to you tonight; otherwise, you won’t have lunch, just thinking about gnawing on pork trotters." Lin Jiayou found Luo Qianqian’s eagerness both amusing and touching; his heart softened at the thought of having such a sister.

When they reached the school gate, Xiu Ran was still not there, but Qin Nuan, Cong Rong, and Zhang Yun were standing at the entrance.

When Qin Nuan saw Lin Jiayou, she paused, blinking in confusion before turning to look at Luo Qianqian.

She smiled and introduced the three: "This is my brother from my mother’s side, Lin Jiayou, currently single." Then standing next to Qin Nuan: "Brother Jiayou, this is my good friend, the future sister-in-law of the fourth family hall—Qin Nuan; this quiet and gentle beauty is my future sister-in-law of the third family hall—Cong Rong; this single and approachable, hearty beauty is Sister Zhang Yun."

Upon hearing Luo Qianqian’s words, Qin Nuan couldn’t help but laugh: "Are you trying to keep all your roommates for in-house sales?"

"If possible." Luo Qianqian playfully stuck out her tongue.

Out of the blue, Zhang Yun extended her hand to Lin Jiayou: "Hello, Zhang Yun, you’re really tall."

Lin Jiayou shook Zhang Yun’s hand somewhat awkwardly: "Not at all, you’re quite tall yourself."

"Of course, everyone is tall in front of me." Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes: "Saying that makes me unhappy, I want to eat the most expensive hamburger!"

At this statement, Cong Rong also started to laugh.

The most expensive, hamburger.

How expensive can a hamburger get?

They typically eat at the cafeteria, the supermarket, or the Western fast-food restaurants outside of school, and surely the latter is the most expensive.

Lin Jiayou frowned: "Auntie just told me not to let you eat those junk foods. Eat something healthy instead." This statement was met with approval from the other three.

Luo Qianqian had spoken off the cuff and was ignored once again.

After discussing for a bit, the four of them dragged her to a barbecue restaurant, as they all had lived and studied here for over a year and knew the place well.

While eating meat, Luo Qianqian remembered that Hei Yu had also brought people here before, without hesitation, he had booked a private room.

Yet she hadn’t expected to run into someone beyond her expectations.
