64: Chapter 64 I Know All Your Secrets!_1 64: Chapter 64 I Know All Your Secrets!_1 Lin Baici grasped the doorknob and took in the entire dormitory at a glance.
The place wasn’t big.
It was furnished with three bunk beds, each topped with wooden planks painted a kind of ink-green.
This color was just ridiculous.
Had Haijing Polytechnic’s principal been cuckolded or sothing?
Otherwise, why would both the fitted sheets and the beds be green?
There was absolutely no sense of aesthetics whatsoever.
Lin Baici’s evaluation could be sumd up in one word,
Ugly!
In the northeast corner and the middle of the dormitory, there was a desk each, with an old-looking, probably seven or eight-year-old, landline phone on the corner desk.
Does anyone even use this thing nowadays?
“The balcony is inside, with a sink, and your luggage lockers are also placed there!”
Zhou Ya introduced the dormitory layout.
“Hmm!”
Lin Baici nodded, there were now six people in the dorm.
A tall guy, probably just over 1.8 ters, was sitting on the lower bunk of the bed near the door, spinning a basketball on his left index finger.
He was dressed in a yellow Lakers Team uniform emblazoned with the number 23, and on his feet were a pair of AJ32 basketball shoes.
When he saw Lin Baici co in, he stood up politely and asked, “Need any help?”
“Thanks, but no.”
This roommate must be a basketball fan, average in looks but built solid with dark skin, clearly from playing basketball outdoors for years.
[Wow, a muscular guy.
Because he plays basketball frequently, his muscles are well-defined and chewy.
I suggest grilling, with plenty of sauce!]
[dium-rare, don’t complain about it being tough to chew, that’s the best texture.]
“…”
Eater God started its food comntary again, which made Lin Baici speechless.
“My na is Fang Mingyuan!”
Number 23 reached out to Lin Baici but quickly retracted his hand, rembering he’d been playing with the basketball and his hand wasn’t clean.
However, Lin Baici didn’t mind and shook his hand anyway.
“Lin Baici!”
Lin Baici flashed a smile.
[A big boy who prefers activity to thinking, enjoys basketball, and aspires to join a professional team.
He doesn’t show much interest in won — after all, what woman has biceps as full and pretty as his?]
[You can take him along when exploring God’s Ruins, using him for manual labor, and if supplies run low, as ergency rations!]
[I suggest setting aside ti every week to play basketball with him, focusing on his thighs to ensure that after a year, the at will be very tasty!]
“Let know if you need help!”
Fang Mingyuan gave a smile, nodded to Zhou Ya, and then sat back down, continuing to play with his basketball to maintain his touch.
On the balcony, a guy was on the phone.
He was about 1.7 ters tall, with a long face and a Qi Fentou hairstyle, great hair quality, and bangs long enough to slightly cover his eyes — in a word, very handso.
His clothes, too, were very trendy, all brands that Lin Baici couldn’t na, his personal style reminiscent of mbers from idol groups in Sakura Country and Goryeo.
[He looks a bit effeminate, but he isn’t gay.
He has a bit of a temper, and his emotional intelligence is inconsistent.]
[Not just rich, but very rich!]
[He’s loyal to friends, but often gets taken advantage of.
I suggest not eating his brain, it could make one dumber!]
[He has a weak constitution and gets sick often, currently suffering from kidney deficiency.]
Kidney deficiency?
Lin Baici was stunned.
Isn’t an eighteen-year-old man supposed to be brimming with energy?
How could there be a deficiency?
But after taking a look at the guy’s face, Lin Baici understood.
Rich and handso, how could he possibly lack girlfriends?
“I said we’re breaking up, can’t you understand that?”
“I don’t like long-distance relationships!”
“You expect to visit you every weekend?
No, I want to sleep in!”
“Co see ?
Don’t, it’ll interrupt my sleep.”
Qian Jiahui’s patience quickly ran out as his voice grew louder.
“That’s it, we’re done!”
Qian Jiahui didn’t care about his girlfriend’s fussing, ended the call abruptly, walked out from the balcony, and after noticing Lin Baici, gave him a quick once-over.
“Hello, Lin Baici, from Guangqing.”
Lin Baici greeted with a smile.
“, Qian Jiahui, from Beijing!”
After Qian Jiahui spoke, he took out wireless earbuds, put them on without asking Fang Mingyuan for permission, started humming a tune, and just sat on his bed to play a mobile ga.
Fang Mingyuan shifted to the side a bit.
There was another guy on the balcony, in front of him was a basin of water, and he was crouched against the wall, scrubbing at stains on the floor and wall.
Next to him were a broom and dustpan.
The dustpan contained several cigarette butts, a few crumpled balls of tissue paper, and three socks and a pair of underwear all dirtied beyond recognition.
It seed like the previous occupants of this dormitory were not the tidy type.
“Hi, hello there!”
Lin Baici called out to greet.
The guy imdiately stood up, forced a friendly smile, and greeted Lin Baici warmly, “Hello!
Hello!”
“My na’s Lin Baici!”
Lin Baici could sense the guy’s awkwardness.
He was about 1.65 ters tall, skinny, with short hair, and a thumb-sized scar above his left forehead.
“I’m Hu Wenwu!”
“Lin Junior, this upper bunk is yours!”
On the railing of each bed, there was a student’s na tag, and Zhou Ya found Lin Baici’s bed, she directly opened her large bag, took out the bedding, and started making the bed for him.
“I can do it myself!”
Lin Baici felt overwheld; was this senior sister a bit too enthusiastic?
“You rest, chat with everyone!”
As a senior, what kind of student hadn’t Zhou Ya seen?
That guy nad Hu Wenwu, you could tell he was from the countryside right away.
Coming to a super first-tier bustling city like Haijing for the first ti could completely shock one’s worldview, seeing those spirited and carefree peers around the campus would inevitably make one feel constrained, even inferior.
If one couldn’t overco this feeling, they would feel inferior for four years and be left with so not-so-pleasant mories.
If they did get past it, they would transform and mature, making these four years of college a cornerstone for their future success.
Zhou Ya thought of herself.
Different family backgrounds ant different goals for everyone in college.
So, with capital, could enjoy their college days, gaming and dating like wild horses running free, while others, aiming for a good job, started studying hard from the first year, wearing out the chairs in the study rooms.
That Qian Jiahui, in branded clothing from head to toe, a true second-generation rich kid.
Fang Mingyuan?
Sorry, such people were too common in university; Zhou Ya couldn’t be bothered to pay attention.
“Then I’ll trouble you, senior sister!”
There were three other people in the dorm room: a middle-aged man and woman, and a round-faced boy wearing black-rimd glasses.
The woman was making the bed, instructing her son about daily precautions, while the man stood by the bed smoking, his brows furrowed and obviously lost in thought.
The boy was repeatedly saying ‘I know, I know,’ while scrolling through TikTok on his phone with his head down, not very loud, but audible throughout the room.
When Lin Baici entered the room, the round-faced boy glanced at him and made eye contact.
Lin Baici was about to say hello, but the boy looked at Zhou Ya, sized her up, curled his lip dismissively, and continued to scroll through videos.
The other party had no intention of greeting, so after exchanging nas with Hu Wenwu, Lin Baici couldn’t be bothered to speak with the round-faced boy and instead helped Zhou Ya with the bed.
The smoking man frowned upon seeing this, looking Lin Baici up and down with a clear expression of displeasure.
His own son was being ignored.
It made him think that this student was impolite.
[A self-centered mama’s boy, with a strong sense of territory, always petty, and one should never owe him favors, because he will definitely find ways to get back double.]
[He’s obsessed with black stockings, secretly bought and wore them, and during high school, he stealthily added sothing to the water bottles of three classmates he disliked during an unattended napti.]
“What kind of substance?”
Lin Baici frowned.
[Heh!]
The Eater God didn’t say, but Lin Baici could roughly guess.
From now on he had to be careful; carrying a water bottle with him at all tis, in case soone added ‘sothing’ to it, drinking it down would be disgusting.
Wait a minute!
With the Eater God present, what he ate and drank should be pretty safe!
[A petty official who thought he was sowhat powerful and superior, who once took a liking to a classmate’s mother during his son’s second year of junior high parent-teacher eting, tried to leverage his position to woo her, and after being recorded, he spent fifty thousand yuan to settle the matter.]
[Likes to put on airs of being a leader!]
Listening to Eater God’s comntary, Lin Baici was sowhat astonished.
The roommate’s father had a square face, which looked very stern when he frowned, giving him an upright appearance, but he had done such sordid deeds.
[A woman who likes to brag and gossip about others’ families, always exaggerating rumors, has caused two harmonious couples to break up.]
What kind of extraordinary characters made up this family?
Lin Baici was speechless!
Couldn’t he get a room change?
He really feared that soday the round-faced boy, feeling unhappy, might add substances to everyone’s water bottles.
Zhou Ya climbed down from the upper bunk, clapped her hands, “Junior, it’s all set up!”
“Thank you for the trouble, senior sister.”
Lin Baici felt quite embarrassed.
“Don’t be so formal!”
Zhou Ya took out her phone, checked the ti, “It’s after four o’clock, I’m heading back to my dorm.
I have clothes to wash.”
“Dinner together tonight?”
Lin Baici invited.
After all the help she had given, it was only right for him to treat her to dinner.
“Today’s your first day of enrollnt, you should talk more with your roommates, build so rapport!”
Zhou Ya saw that Lin Baici had ignored the round-faced boy, knowing this one was also proud.
If you respect a little, I’ll respect you more.
You want to be rude?
Fine, I won’t treat you as a person, too!
“Anyway, we have WeChat, we can et up anyti!”
Zhou Ya waved goodbye to Lin Baici.
On the way to Dormitory Building No.
2 just now, they had exchanged WeChat contacts.
“Senior sister, take care!”
Lin Baici wanted to accompany Zhou Ya out of the dorm building but was stopped.
“It’s too crowded to take the elevator.
It will take half an hour for you to go down and co back up, don’t bother.”
Zhou Ya shook the juice in her hand, “Next ti, treat to a milk tea!”
“No problem!”
After seeing off Zhou Ya, Lin Baici returned to the room where Fang Mingyuan slapped the basketball and teased with a smile, “Not bad, Student Lin, you’ve managed to charm a senior sister the mont you arrived!”
When Fang Mingyuan registered, it was this senior sister who had processed his paperwork.
In his heart, Hu Wenwu was envious.
He had seen that senior sister at the registration booth, she had a lovely smile and a nice voice.
He had even sneakily thought to himself that in the four years of college, he should work hard to improve himself and find a girlfriend of her caliber.
Even if he couldn’t land soone as pretty, she shouldn’t be too far off.
But he hadn’t expected that his new roommate would achieve it on the first day!
