"Slap! Slap!"
The cheerleading team leader, Qiao Sinian, clasped her hands together and bowed to the team members inside: "Thank you all for your hard work!"
This sound signaled the end of the training.
The air conditioning in the activity room wasn't strong enough, but it still helped to warm up the body while practicing martial arts.
Each cheerleader was covered in sweat, their faces flushed red from the heat.
Chu Chu took a deep breath:
"…call."
...So tired.
"Little Chu Chu is not bad."
Just as Chu Chu was about to put on her coat, Qiao Sinian, who had placed the coat next to hers, winked at her gently: "You've been working very hard lately, haven't you?"
Being praised so highly by her idol made Chu Chu a little embarrassed. She scratched the back of her head and smiled sheepishly:
"fine."
"Remember to dress warmly, don't catch a cold," Qiao Sinian reminded her.
"Yes, yes!" Chu Chu nodded emphatically.
"And then... the basketball games that follow will also depend on you guys."
Qiao Sinian smiled. This older sister had a natural exotic and wild charm. When she spoke, her thick eyebrows would rise, like a charming cheetah.
"Yes!" Chu Chu nodded even more firmly.
Qiao Sinian put on a long black cotton coat and said loudly:
"Everyone, pack your things and you're good to go—don't forget your phones or anything like that!"
Okay~~
The cheerleaders answered leisurely.
Then they went in small groups, some planning to go straight back to their dorms, others planning to buy some late-night snacks outside the school gate.
"Chu Chu, let's go!"
"bye."
"Chu Chu, we're going to buy some grilled cold noodles, do you want to come along?"
"I'm not going, someone in my dorm is sick—"
"No, what does my illness have to do with you?"
"People look at it and their mouths water, but they can't eat it!"
Haha, you're so nice~
"Chu Chu, thank you for getting my WeChat ID last time. I'm going out for a walk with him tonight~"
"It's so cold, be careful not to freeze to death."
"Passionate love will never be obscured by the frost and snow~ Oh~ Cupid, I'm coming~~!!"
Chu Chu watched with amusement as her classmate, who seemed like a devout believer, walked out the door in a theatrical manner.
"...Huh?"
Immediately afterwards, she heard a familiar voice: "Chu Chu, are you going back to your dorm alone?"
Chu Chu turned around and saw a girl who was a little taller than her, with a pointed face and big eyes, wearing false eyelashes that looked like two low-quality brushes.
Her name is Ruan Wei.
Second grade.
She was actually Chu Chu's senior, though Chu Chu couldn't muster any respect for her at all.
But out of politeness, she still replied:
"Yes—oh, what else?"
How did you get home yesterday? It was raining so hard.
Chu Chu:…
She originally wanted to say that she went back in the rain.
But after thinking about it, I realized that telling the truth would be too embarrassing, so I changed my mind:
My roommate picked me up.
Ruan Wei covered her mouth and chuckled as if she had heard something funny.
Chu Chu wanted to roll her eyes; she could tell that Ruan Wei's next sentence would definitely be about her boyfriend.
Then,
"It's good to have a roommate pick me up. At least we can get back to the dorm at the same time, unlike my boyfriend who drops me off at the dorm and then I have to walk back to my own dorm, which is quite far."
Ruan Wei said, "But he has no regrets at all."
Chu Chu took a deep breath.
Damn it, what's it to her?
Ruan Wei then asked, "Have you met any reliable guys lately?"
Chu Chu:…
Ruan Wei glanced at her phone again:
"Oh my, my boyfriend came to pick me up, and he even brought milk tea—that's great, bye-bye, Chu Chu."
Chu Chu couldn't help but roll her eyes at Ruan Wei's slightly tall back.
"…Grass."
She muttered something under her breath... and went to secretly curse her with Ma Jiaojiao.
No! We have to call Ji Qingqian along too!
Just as Chu Chu was mentally giving the middle finger, Qiao Sinian, who had already left the house, called out in surprise:
"Hey? Isn't this Ji Qingqian? What are you doing here?"
Chu Chu was taken aback.
Did I hear that right?
Chu Chu quickly tidied her clothes and hurriedly went out the door.
…It really is Ji Qingqian.
She stood there quietly and aloofly, holding a cup of milk tea in her hand.
Ji Qingqian was originally dealing with Qiao Sinian, but after seeing Chu Chu leave, she immediately waved her hand:
"Chu Chu, over here."
Qiao Sinian immediately understood: "Oh, you've come to pick up Chu Chu?"
"Um."
Ji Qingqian nodded, and seeing Chu Chu's stunned expression, she urged again, "...So slow."
Chu Chu quickly approached, but before she could even ask, "What are you doing here?", Ji Qingqian pressed the warm milk tea in her hand against her face.
Drink it while it's hot.
Many of the cheerleaders who hadn't left yet were staring at Ji Qingqian.
Of course they all knew Ji Qingqian.
After all, Ji Qingqian had performed on the same stage as them at the previous welcome party.
They also witnessed the charm that this junior (classmate) displayed at the time.
Moreover, they seemed to have heard Chu Chu mention that she and Ji Qingqian were roommates...
They didn't mention much, and I originally thought they were just ordinary roommates.
After all, just by looking at Ji Qingqian's expression, most people would think that she doesn't like to communicate with people—she has a completely indifferent and world-weary face.
It seems like the relationship is... pretty good?
"...Wow, School Beauty Ji~"
"Ugh, I need to give my roommates a good talking-to! Why didn't they buy me bubble tea?!"
