Chapter 133

Su Xiaoqi practiced calligraphy diligently for an hour, using a stack of paper. Afterwards, she went to clean her brush and store the ink.

At that moment, Chen Mier had already finished bathing, and Wei Cheng was also preparing to take a shower. Upon seeing Su Xiaoqi cleaning her brush, Wei Cheng quickly asked, "Do you want to take a shower first?"

"No need, I'm going for a run. You go ahead," Su Xiaoqi replied.

Su Xiaoqi thought Wei Cheng was very generous. Despite being tall, he had a great temperament. He had already waited for both of them to finish bathing, yet he still wanted to let her go first.

Watching Wei Cheng, Su Xiaoqi felt like she was looking at her past self. But Wei Cheng seemed genuinely easygoing and unconcerned. If it were her before, even if she agreed, she would still be bothered inside and wouldn't be as generous.

Su Xiaoqi tidied up, changed into sports shorts and a sportswear, grabbed a towel and a bottle of water, and headed downstairs. Gu Yunshu, who had already changed into a fresh and beautiful white fluffy nightgown, was blow-drying her hair with the Dyson hairdryer she brought.

That hairdryer cost around three thousand yuan.

On her desk, there were also various bottles and jars of cosmetics.

They were from the brand "La Mer."

Neither Su Xiaoqi nor the other roommates recognized them. Chen Mier, who was more perceptive, didn't know about La Mer either but thought that Gu Yunshu's things should be expensive.

On the other hand, Chen Mier was wearing a two-piece pajama set—pink, sleeveless on top and knee-length shorts on the bottom. With her flushed face after taking a shower, she looked quite cute. She must be sensitive to heat since she didn't wear a bra after showering, just a sleeveless camisole, but her breasts were well developed and quite large.

Compared to Gu Yunshu in the white fluffy nightgown, she looked like an underdeveloped girl, even though she was wearing underwear underneath.

Wei Cheng finished showering quickly and came out within three to five minutes. He also had short hair, a bit plain in a student-like style, with very dark and stiff hair. His face was slightly square, giving an impression of masculinity, but his personality was extremely gentle.

The dormitory was steamy from the shower, and the door was left open.

At this moment, someone from the neighboring dormitory came to visit. The adjacent rooms were all occupied by Information Management majors.

It seemed that the other end of the 6th floor was for English majors, and this floor was divided between Information Management and English majors.

The visitor happened to know Gu Yunshu and enthusiastically exclaimed upon entering, "Yunshu, you're in Room 606! That's great. I'm in Room 601. We can go to class together from now on."

The visitor, acting familiar, wanted to sit next to Gu Yunshu. However, Gu Yunshu was in her fluffy pajama gown, blow-drying her hair, and there was a pile of clothes on the chair next to her. So she dragged a chair from Su Xiaoqi's table and naturally sat down.

Chen Mier and Wei Cheng thought the visitor was a friend of Gu Yunshu's, so they didn't say much. "Wow, Yunshu, you actually use La Mer products. No wonder your skin is so fair. You definitely have the best skin in our class," the visitor exclaimed.

Gu Yunshu finished blow-drying her hair, and her long hair was slightly damp, cascading over her shoulders.

Her face was also flushed.

She shook her head and said, "My skin is just average. Su Xiaoqi, our roommate, has even better skin than me. She's much fairer."

Upon hearing this, both Chen Mier and Wei Cheng nodded in agreement.

"Yes, yes, yes, the first time I saw her arranging books, when she looked up, she startled me. Her skin is so fair, she looks so beautiful, and her hairstyle is cool too, with a small bun tied up, cool and pretty," Chen Mier's voice was fast-paced as she finished speaking in one breath.

Wei Cheng weakly echoed, "Yes, she's so beautiful, her skin is especially fair, it's radiant."

Originally, they planned to flatter Gu Yunshu, make friends with her because she was a famous person. They saw Gu Yunshu's parents driving a luxury car worth over a million yuan and bringing expensive luggage. They didn't expect Gu Yunshu's roommates to be ordinary.

And she didn't know Su Xiaoqi.

She was more mature and adept at socializing than the other people in Su Xiaoqi's dormitory, so despite feeling a bit awkward, she introduced herself in a confident manner, "Hello, I'm Rong Jiaojiao, from the Class 3 of Information Management."

Chen Mier and Wei Cheng also introduced themselves by name.

Only then did Rong Jiaojiao notice that there was one less person in the dormitory. She casually touched and accidentally scattered a stack of paper on the desk behind her.

Those were the calligraphy Su Xiaoqi had just finished writing and left on the desk to dry.

Rong Jiaojiao, feeling a little embarrassed, turned around to tidy up and saw the paper in her hand. She was somewhat surprised and said, "Wow, whose copybook is this? It looks so beautiful, I want to buy it and copy it."

Looking at the calligraphy that Su Xiaoqi, their classmate, had written in an hour, the other people in the dormitory were speechless.

Just now, Su Xiaoqi was writing, inexplicably serious, with a strong presence, and nobody dared to disturb her.

Even Gu Yunshu waited until Su Xiaoqi left before blow-drying her hair.

Now they were all curious and leaned in to look at the calligraphy.

"It's actually just like a copybook!" Chen Mier exclaimed.

"Even better than the characters in the copybook," Wei Cheng praised in a low voice.

"I just saw her looking at the textbook, not copying from a copybook," Gu Yunshu said slowly.

"Do you all think Su Xiaoqi wrote this herself?" Rong Jiaojiao was shocked as she came to visit.

She casually flipped through the stack of paper as if there was still the smell of fresh ink. Looking at the books on the bookshelf, apart from textbooks, there were some extracurricular books, mostly in Japanese and some in English, and they all looked old.

"What kind of extraordinary person is Su Xiaoqi in your dormitory? Where is she?" Rong Jiaojiao, who initially came to get closer to Gu Yunshu, was now also curious.

"She went jogging," Wei Cheng whispered.

"She should be very good at sports. I added her on WeChat and she turned out to be the champion of the women's 200-meter freestyle in Jingnan Province," Chen Mier, who was more thoughtful, even checked.

Gu Yunshu and Wei Cheng were both oblivious to this. They added her on WeChat, but didn't pay attention to that.

"Why would such an extraordinary person come to Enhua University?" Rong Jiaojiao was puzzled.

At this moment, Xiaoqi was unaware that her roommates were discussing her. She went downstairs to jog and discovered that Enhua University was really big, so big that she didn't need to leave the dormitory area, there were three basketball courts side by side in a corner of this dormitory area, and she could just run along the edge of the basketball court.

Every day, she ran at least 30,000 steps before considering training for a marathon. She had already registered on the running app and, because she came to study in Meng City, her household registration was transferred to the school. As a university student in Meng City, she could benefit from certain policies regarding her running performance, as she belonged to the local population, which had lower requirements.

When Xiaoqi ran, she fixed her phone on her arm and wore headphones. The basketball court in the dormitory area was usually deserted and quiet, which made her feel at ease while running.

The university campus was truly enormous. Today, she only came for a rough registration and passed by several buildings, feeling as if she had entered a huge garden. Moreover, most of the faces she saw here were young people like herself, giving off a vibrant and energetic atmosphere.

Living in such an environment was really wonderful. At first, while running, her mind would wander, but after a while, she started listening to an English program for today. She listened for about an hour, took a short break, and then switched to a Japanese program. Japanese was easier, and the program was about traveling to Japan, which interested her since her Japanese vocabulary was still limited.

Besides, she had very few opportunities to come into contact with Japanese, but there were plenty of opportunities to use English.

She heard that Enhua University's most impressive aspect was its abundance of foreign teachers. Looking at her timetable, it was indeed the case. She had four classes a week taught by foreign teachers, and they were different teachers each time. This was quite remarkable.

Thinking about having so many learning opportunities, Xiaoqi felt her blood boil, and she ran with even more enthusiasm than usual.

When she finished running 30,000 steps, she began to walk slowly while making a phone call to her family. She told them about her situation, and her parents seemed pleased on the other end of the line. Her father was doing bamboo weaving, and her mother was sewing fabric. She heard that bamboo bags with linings were becoming more popular.

Xiaoqi asked them not to stay up too late and endured her mother's nagging about eating meals on time. Her father reminded her to stay safe and not to leave the campus without a reason. They chatted for a while, and then she hung up.

Xiaoqi leisurely walked back to the dormitory, preparing to take a shower.

When she returned to the dormitory, Rong Jiaojiao from Room 601 was already gone.

Wei Cheng and Chen Mier thought that Rong Jiaojiao was Gu Yunshu's fellow villager, but Gu Yunshu said she wasn't. They happened to meet each other during registration.

Xiaoqi had finished her run, with a slight sweat on her body and a slightly flushed face. As she entered the room, she saw her three roommates staring at her with strange expressions, and she was puzzled.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"Xiaoqi, have you been running all this time? For two hours?" Chen Mier asked in surprise.

"No, I haven't. I took a break for twenty minutes and called my parents. I'm going to take a shower now." Xiaoqi returned at the right moment. No one needed to rush to use the bathroom, and it wouldn't be filled with steam.

She took her clean pajamas and entered the bathroom, while her three roommates still had a bewildered look on their faces.
