Chu Chu paused, then pouted in disbelief.
"What good thing could there be?"
As Chu Chu went upstairs, she happened to see Ji Qingqian leaping down the steps. She moved with remarkable speed, making three consecutive jumps.
Just by looking at that gait, Chu Chu could tell just how much her roommate liked the senior waiting for her downstairs…
but.
Chu Chu stared at Ji Qingqian, who leaped past her, and thought to herself that she liked her way too much.
"...Didn't you even see me?!"
"Ah, Chu Chu."
"……Grass!!"
Chu Chu gave him two middle fingers in quick succession: "Get lost, you two scoundrels—"
She pushed open the dormitory door that Ji Qingqian hadn't had time to close after leaving the room.
Then, as if deflated, he slumped into a chair, leaning back against the backrest in a complete "Ge You slouch."
Then Wang Jue and Ma Jiaojiao came over to divide the spoils.
Their senior, Lu, wouldn't be so kind as to bring them ice cream for free.
—Even after buying it, she would still charge her boyfriend.
"Are you going to join the cheerleading squad later?" Ma Jiaojiao asked casually.
Chu Chu nodded: "I'll go."
Ma Jiaojiao said "oh" and took out her favorite chocolate-flavored ice cream from the plastic bag.
Wang Jue then chose the original flavor, which she liked best.
Can--
"Hmm? Is this matcha tea for Ji Qingqian?"
Ma Jiaojiao looked at the remaining food; Chu Chu hadn't finished her vanilla, and she was still holding a small portion in her hands. "Didn't you run into Ji Qingqian when you went upstairs?" she asked.
Chu Chu was stunned.
She looked at the remaining vanilla ice cream, and Lu Yibei's words came back to her mind.
—Sometimes good things do happen.
—Regardless of which ice cream you choose.
…
Lu Yibei opened the plastic bag containing the ice cream from their dormitory and glanced at it:
"Damn it—what bad luck!"
Ji Qingqian asked, "Abei, what's wrong?"
“…I made a mistake,” Lu Yibei said.
Ji Qingqian nonchalantly lifted her own portion: "Then I'll eat half, and you can eat half. Your stomach isn't good, and lately the temperature has been fluctuating between hot and cold, so eating too much cold food can upset your stomach."
As she spoke, she held the wooden stick filled with ice cream to Lu Yibei's lips:
Come on—ah.
"ah--"
While feeding Chu Chu, Ji Qingqian asked softly, "Has Chu Chu been preoccupied lately?"
Lu Yibei thought for a moment and asked in return, "Did she tell you why she broke up with her boyfriend?"
Ji Qingqian hummed in agreement: "She said she couldn't accept a long-distance relationship, and she didn't get into her ex-boyfriend's university..."
As she spoke, Ji Qingqian glanced at her boyfriend.
She turned her face slightly toward her boyfriend. Lu Yibei knew what his little girlfriend meant, and gently kissed her cheek with his ice cream-scented lips.
She didn't pass the exam at first either.
But after repeating a year, he finally entered the school.
You can't expect everyone to be like Ji Qingqian.
Moreover...
“She’s lying to you,” Lu Yibei said.
"It's not that she failed the exam."
"She passed the exam."
As he spoke.
Someone patted Lu Yibei on the shoulder from behind.
He turned around and saw a rather handsome guy looking at him.
Judging from his overall expression, he seemed a bit dull and indifferent, but his eyes seemed to be filled with an unvented anger—and it was directed at Lu Yibei.
But Lu Yibei didn't know this guy.
His first thought was...
— He felt unlucky today after losing to Brother Jie in rock-paper-scissors.
—Then I met Sister Chu.
—This guy seems to have ill intentions as well.
Bad luck.
"...Who?" Lu Yibei asked.
…
"President."
"Um?"
Fu Chi is currently reading this issue of the WeChat official account—the one from Zheng Sen University has particularly high viewership.
This was actually a mistake; they interviewed the wrong person.
However, he felt there was no need to cut it, and it would also be a way to hear what students from other universities thought of Jiangnan University.
In retrospect, the results are indeed quite good.
After nodding in satisfaction, Fu Chi looked at the girl who had called him.
The girl rested her chin on her hands and placed the pen on her pouting lips.
Fu Chi smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"
"...Who is Chu Chu?" the girl asked.
“The cheerleaders—” Fu Chi said with a smile.
The girl asked that question because Zhengsen's university classmate, who had just finished the interview, happened to mention that name...
"Hey, cheerleaders—looks like pretty girls." The girl drawled.
Fu Chi: ...
"Is the president very familiar with her?"
"We're not particularly close; we've only met a few times during work handover."
"Hey—work—"
The girl continued, drawing out her words: "Do you know where other people's dorm rooms are because of work? —"
Fu Chi helplessly defended himself:
"Brother Pear knows!!"
After his chance encounter with Chu Chu in the cafeteria, he ran into Xia Li on his way back and casually exchanged a few words with her.
Xia Li and Chu Chu weren't particularly close, but they would occasionally bump into each other downstairs in their dormitories and remembered each other's dormitory buildings.
Girl: "Eh—"
Fu Chi: "Screw you, get to work!"
"Hey—"
