Chapter 236, Section 235: Opening Ceremony
Later that evening, Su Qing went out for a while and when she came back, she brought back a pack of extra-long and extra-thick sanitary napkins for her roommates.
"I don't need to tell you how to use it, right? Remember to stuff it in your shoes tomorrow, otherwise you'll definitely be in unbearable pain if you stand at attention for too long."
As expected of Su's mother, she considers things more thoroughly than most people.
When I was in college in my previous life, I never thought there was such advanced technology. As a result, after a day of military training, both of my legs were almost broken, and many people fainted on the spot.
So he decisively put three layers of sanitary napkins inside his liberation shoes, making them soft and comfortable to step on.
The other two followed suit.
"Thank you, Aunt Su, for this amazing tool."
Jiang Xia took the lead, and Zhou Zijian and Zhao Ning started to cheer. With Su Ma and Jiang Ba, this pair of brilliant and capable individuals, in the dormitory, their entire college life would probably be incredibly comfortable.
"You're kidding me."
Su Qing laughed and scolded, then turned around to carefully look at the storyboard Jiang Xia had given her, and slowly sketched the original drawing in the style of Tom and Jerry.
Jiang Xia, meanwhile, lay in bed, happily chatting with his wife.
"I have a magical gadget that will keep my legs from aching and sore tomorrow, baby, can you guess what it is?"
"Sanitary napkins?" Lin Yanwan replied quickly.
"How did you know?! (Surprised.jpg)"
Seeing the emoticon he sent, Lin Yanwan couldn't help but laugh: "Girls use this during military training, didn't you know? But 'not painful or sore' is an exaggeration. It's just that it's much more comfortable than not padding at all."
"As long as it works, that's fine. Hehe, I put three pads in each shoe, and now it feels like walking on cotton."
"Do you already have it? I was planning to give it to you tomorrow, but when did you go to buy it?"
"Haha, it was given to me by Aunt Su."
Jiang Xia turned his head and looked under the bed. Su Qing was still obediently getting used to the style of Tom and Jerry. He had originally planned to draw some more storyboards, but he was a little tired today and decided to take a break.
"Uh... He brings breakfast, helps me pick up my new books, and now he's even personally delivering sanitary napkins to my hands. Calling her 'Mom' is definitely worth it." Lin Yanwan looked helplessly at her roommates, as if she were the one who was the mother.
"You're right, what are you doing now?"
"They're chatting about the past, and they'll probably be getting ready to sleep in a little while. They have to get up early for the opening ceremony tomorrow, so don't stay up late either. Go to sleep early; your life is more important."
"Don't worry, how could I bear to see my dear wife become a widow?"
"Pooh!"
For some reason, she suddenly remembered what he had said about the reins earlier that day; he seemed to like that embarrassing position the most.
Hmm... I like it very much myself.
"Honey, I miss you. Give me a kiss."
"Kiss.jpg"
"No facial expressions!!!"
"What do you want?"
"Telephone?"
"no!"
Lin Yanwan refused without hesitation. Although it was done secretly, she knew that if others heard it, she would be ridiculed.
That's too social.
"Then type it."
“Mua~”
"Ah~ With my wife's goodnight kiss, I'm sure I'll have sweet dreams tonight."
Lin Yanwan was slightly speechless. What's the difference between facial expressions and written words? It's not like it's a sound. Or is it that written words are more likely to make people feel excited?
She had no doubt that if this were the age of smartphones, this shameless guy would probably video call her, and might even ask to see something risqué, like a pair of long, smooth legs, or a glimpse of her breasts.
Goodnight, my husband.
Goodnight, my love, I love you.
Jiang Xia felt inexplicably emotional, thinking how wonderful it would be to be able to video chat, and even hide under the covers to have some intimate moments with his wife—the thought alone was thrilling.
Before going to sleep, I checked the messages in the class group chat again. The counselor had posted the specific time and location for tomorrow's opening ceremony. All freshmen were to gather at the East Campus playground at 8 a.m.
At 11:30 p.m., the dormitory power was cut off as usual. Jiang Xia was worried that Zhou Zijian's snoring would keep her from sleeping again, so she went to bed early.
◇
The next day, Su Qing got up early, before six o'clock. He wouldn't disrupt his routine just because of the opening ceremony or military training.
In his eyes, daily morning exercise is essential.
After a quick wash, I put on my sportswear and went downstairs to the Zijing playground to run a few laps.
After returning to the dormitory, it was already past 6:30. We had to gather at 8:00, wash up, and have breakfast. It would take more than ten minutes to walk to the East Campus playground. If we didn't get up now, we would be late.
"Wake up, everyone! We're going to be late for the opening ceremony!" Su Qing called to each bed one by one.
Jiang Xia struggled to take out her phone, squinted at the time, and saw it was only 6:30. There was no rush; she could at least sleep for another half hour.
If you're really determined, you can get up at 7:30. Mom will bring you breakfast, so you can eat it on the way. Anyway, the opening ceremony is just a bunch of people standing and listening to the principal and other leaders speak, and they can talk on and on for more than two hours.
The other two, Su Qing, got dressed and washed up within minutes of being called. Jiang Xia couldn't fall asleep even after trying to doze off for a while, as she kept hearing her roommates' voices.
"Good morning, everyone." He yawned.
"Good morning, Brother Jiang." Zhao Ning brushed his teeth, his voice muffled.
Where is Aunt Su?
“I’ll take a shower in the bathroom,” Zhou Zijian said.
"She's really disciplined enough," Jiang Xia muttered to herself, holding back her morning urge to urinate before washing her face and brushing her teeth.
The four of them spent almost twenty minutes cleaning up and basically finished.
"Do we need to wear military training uniforms now?" he asked.
"I don't think so. I think military training starts in the afternoon?" Zhao Ning said.
Jiang Xia took out his phone to check the group messages, and sure enough, it was true.
"Then don't wear it. If the sun comes out or something, wearing military training uniform will definitely be unbearably hot."
The four of them walked towards the cafeteria. There were quite a few people there, and at a glance, they were mostly freshmen.
So two people took a seat, and two people lined up to buy breakfast. To thank Jiang's father and Su's mother for their contributions in the dormitory, the other two volunteered to take over the queuing.
Just then, my phone vibrated. I took it out and saw that it was a message from my wife.
"I see you, to your left front. Do you want to come over?"
He subconsciously looked up and, through the crowd of people, saw Lin Yanwan smiling at him, with an empty seat next to her.
My wife looks beautiful today too!
"Never mind, Zhou Zijian and Zhao Ning went to buy me fried dough sticks and soy milk. If I leave for a while, they won't be able to find me," Jiang Xia typed in reply.
"All right."
"Tsk, do you really want to be with your husband that much?"
"No way!"
Lin Yanwan glanced at her roommates, only to find that Cui Jiaying was looking at her and said with a smile, "Yanwan, don't worry about it. Just call Jiang the handsome guy over. Lovers should stay together and not be separated. Let's make room for him!"
Her face flushed red, and she nervously took out her phone and quickly typed something.
"You're not allowed to come any closer!!!"
