Chapter 453: My Chin Almost Hit My Foot...
Shang Ruoting had no idea that she had been slandered behind her back as soon as she arrived at Peking University. When she arrived at the area separating the male and female dormitories, Tan Chen handed her luggage.
"Wife, let's meet in the cafeteria at noon."
Shang Ruoting took the luggage and nodded: "Okay."
The two of them walked towards the dormitory.
Shang Ruoting was very familiar with the Peking University campus. Although many of the buildings here were different from those in later generations, the roads had not changed much.
Especially the girls' dormitory, which was still all bungalows, with only two two-story buildings standing out. They were later turned into high-rise buildings, but their locations did not change.
Shang Ruoting looked at the room number on the key tag in her hand. It happened to be the two-story building closest to her. Her dormitory was in Room 210 on the second floor.
She didn't come early. It was probably because the students who came early wanted to get some fresh air, so the dormitory door was not only not locked, but also wide open.
The walls of the dormitory are white, and about one meter from the bottom to the top is a wall painted with water blue paint. There is a slight smell of paint in the room, and it is obvious that it has been freshly painted.
There are four bunk beds in the dormitory room, located next to the window, with two rows of tables and chairs facing each other, which can accommodate just eight people.
On both sides of the door are eight wardrobes painted the same color as the wall.
Shang Ruoting walked in effortlessly carrying her luggage. There were already three classmates inside, each occupying a spot on the lower bunk.
Someone saw Shang Ruoting come in and look around, and took the initiative to greet her.
"Are you also our roommate in Room 210?"
Shang Ruoting looked at the person who was speaking. He had the most common hairstyle of that era, two pigtails, dark skin, an oval face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. The first impression he gave people was that he was very cheerful.
"Hello, classmate. I'm also from 210, and my name is Shang Ruoting." Shang Ruoting smiled sincerely. On the first day of school, her first priority was to build good relationships with her classmates. After all, she would be living here for some time in the future, and it could be considered a big family.
At the same time, she also placed her luggage on the last lower bunk, reserving a seat in advance.
The three female classmates were all stunned when they heard Shang Ruoting introduce herself.
Xu Lijie covered her mouth with one hand, her eyes nearly popping out of her head, her jaw nearly hitting her feet in shock...
Song Weiwei was not in much better condition. Her brain had lost the ability to direct her actions. She stood there like a wooden stick, staring at Shang Ruoting.
Yang Furong was better off. She was the first to react and pointed at Shang Ruoting.
"Are you...are you...the top scorer in the national college entrance exam?"
When Xu Lijie and Song Weiwei saw that Yang Furong asked what they were thinking, they nodded woodenly, staring at Shang Ruoting without blinking.
On the first day of her arrival, Shang Ruoting was stared at like this by several of her roommates, and she felt a bit amused and helpless.
However, there is no need to keep this matter low-key. Even if she doesn't say it herself, others will know it sooner or later.
"I'm the top scorer in the college entrance examination you're talking about."
For a moment, the entire dormitory was so quiet that you could almost hear a pin drop.
It took a long time for the three roommates to recover.
Xu Lijie walked forward and warmly held Shang Ruoting's hand, speaking in a somewhat rough voice.
"Hehe... My name is Xu Lijie. I heard back home that our top scorer in the college entrance exam also applied to Peking University. I never expected that he would be in the same dorm as me. What a coincidence."
As he spoke, Xu Lijie walked warmly to Shang Ruoting's bed and reached out to help her tidy up the bedding.
"Student Shang Ruoting, I grew up in the countryside and have been working since I was young, so I'm quite strong!
If you need any help in the future, just let me know."
When it comes to strength, Shang Ruoting has never been defeated by anyone, but she has never shown her strength in front of outsiders. Therefore, she did not show any fear in front of Xu Lijie.
"Thank you, Xu Lijie. I can do it myself."
Seeing Shang Ruoting was about to do it herself, Song Weiwei smiled and walked forward to hold her back.
"Student Shang Ruoting, let me introduce myself. My name is Song Weiwei."
Shang Ruoting also responded politely: "Hello, Song Weiwei."
After Song Weiwei finished introducing herself, she pointed at Xu Lijie and said, "Just let her help. This guy seems uncomfortable without using his strength."
As she spoke, she pointed towards her and Yang Furong's beds and said, "Look, Xu Lijie helped make our beds."
Looking at Xu Lijie again, he had already started to act swiftly.
Shang Ruoting laughed a little. She didn't expect to meet such an enthusiastic roommate.
Seeing that the others had already started interacting, Yang Furong also walked over.
"Hello, classmate Shang Ruoting. My name is Yang Furong. I live in Beijing. You can come to my house on weekends and let my mother cook delicious food for you."
She had heard that the top scorer in the college entrance examination, Shang Ruoting, was a candidate from Beihe Province.
