Chapter 123 Difficult Roommate

After leaving the dormitory, Jinran strolled over to the dormitory supervisor. With a sweet smile, Jinran asked, "Auntie, I'm a new student. My name is Shen Jinran, and I'm in the History Department."

The aunt was also very talkative. Seeing that Jinran was pretty, she smiled and said, "That little girl is really something. What do you want to ask me?"

After that, Jinran learned a lot, such as what time to get water so it wouldn't be crowded, which school cafeterias had the best food and the most generous portions, and that there was a street behind the school where you could buy things without tickets, which was specially organized and built for the convenience of students.

The bathhouse was open every day, and the auntie told her all sorts of little details. Jinran was scared that if she kept talking, the auntie would enthusiastically go with her and help her scrub her back.

Jinran sincerely thanked the aunt, "Auntie, you have really helped me a lot. If I had to figure these things out on my own, it would probably take me at least half a year to figure them out."

The aunt was very pleased with the compliments and patted her chest, saying, "If you ever have any questions in the future, just come and ask me. You're a young girl living far from home, and it's not easy for you either."

Jinran thanked her again, chatted for a while, and then left.

She first went to stroll around the street behind the school. There were already many people shopping there. She wandered around for a while and checked the prices. Things like thermos flasks were much cheaper than at the supply and marketing cooperative back home, but she had plenty of those things in her space, so she didn't need to buy them.

Actually, she already owns many of these things, but she just enjoys the feeling of strolling around like this.

I wandered around for a while but couldn't find a place to eat. The market is still not very free, and there aren't many food vendors, especially not on this street.

Jinran had no choice but to find a secluded corner, quickly eat a few meat buns that she had prepared beforehand, and drink a large cup of milk tea before she felt comfortable.

Following the directions given by the aunt, they found the bathhouse, a fairly clean place. Jinran wasn't being coy; she paid the money and went inside. There was no one there.

Jinran finished quickly and soon washed her hair, which was now waist-length. It was so cold that washing her hair was a real chore. She kept changing the towel until it was dry, then wrapped her hair in a towel before heading to the hair salon she had just seen.

There were no other customers in the barbershop. The owner, a woman, saw Jinran come in and asked, "Are you here for a haircut? Sit down. We don't charge tickets, but it costs 50 cents per haircut."

Jinran nodded, sat down, and took the towel. The shop owner looked at Jinran's long, dark, and shiny hair and said in amazement, "Little sister, your hair is so beautiful. Have you decided how you want it cut?"

Jinran said cruelly, "Short hair to ear length."

The shopkeeper said with heartache, "Little sister, don't bother with the rest. That would be such a waste. Let me trim the edges for you, and you can keep it. It looks so nice."

Jinran thought, "How can Tony be so disrespectful to God?"

Finally, Jinran was persuaded. She didn't cut it short, just trimmed a small side. Jinran neatly combed her hair into a ponytail, paid the money, and listened to the shop owner's endless compliments on her hair before she scrambled out the door.

Jinran returned to her dorm looking refreshed. The seven girls glanced at her, their eyes flashing with complex emotions, but all sharing the same thought: This difficult-to-get-along-with Shen Jinran is really beautiful.

Jinran didn't greet anyone. She took the two kettles, a small table, and some odds and ends that she had smuggled out, and quietly went to her own table to put them down.

Feng Lijuan asked curiously, "Shen Jinran, what have you been doing? Did you take a bath? You smell so good."

Jinran simply nodded.

Feng Lijuan felt quite embarrassed. She glanced at Jinran a few times with a wronged expression, then looked at the others before returning to her own bed.

A girl with dark skin, whom Jinran remembered was named Geng Chen, said to Jinran unhappily, "What are you so arrogant about? I just asked you a few questions, and you react like this. What do you mean by that?"

Jinran raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "Then what should my attitude be? Do I have to prepare the bathwater for you and put it in the room to be considered a good attitude? Wake up, the Qing Dynasty is long gone."

Geng Chen was speechless after being rebuked, and the rest of them exchanged glances, not daring to provoke Jin Ran any further.

Seeing that everyone had given up, Feng Lijuan cursed them under her breath as idiots, then turned over and continued lying down.

Jinran glanced at her watch; it was the time the aunt had mentioned for hot water to be supplied. Jinran went to the water room to fill the tub with water, and when she came back, she put the small table on the upper bunk. The small table was the foldable kind, which was convenient to put away and put away. She could read or eat in bed from now on.

Jinran didn't greet anyone before strolling out, intending to send a telegram to her parents first, and then go to the cafeteria to try the food and see how it was.
