Chapter 27 College Roommates
The fact that Qin Chaoyang proposed to make him the class monitor showed that he appreciated and valued him. Song Ci was afraid that the class teacher would misunderstand that he was ungrateful.
So I explained, "I started a company during the summer vacation. I have to take care of the company's affairs in my spare time. Thank you, Mr. Qin, for being the class monitor."
Qin Chaoyang was surprised to hear this, there are many college students starting their own businesses now, the country and schools also have policies to support them, but basically they start taking action in their senior year or at least their junior year.
This was the first time he had heard of someone like Song Ci starting a business during the summer vacation of high school before college started.
He was very interested in Song Ci's company. If his students succeeded in starting a business during college, wouldn't it be the credit of the college leaders and himself?
Just as I was about to have a detailed discussion with Song Ci, I saw another new student reporting in, and I knew that today was not a good time to have a conversation.
Then he said to Song Ci, "Go to the dormitory first. The school has policies to support college students' entrepreneurship. After the busy days of school, prepare the company information and come to see me, and we can discuss in detail."
Song Ci was naturally very grateful for the class teacher's kindness and politely replied: "Thank you for your care, Teacher Qin. If there is nothing else, I will go to the dormitory first."
Qin Chaoyang was busy guiding the freshmen to go through the registration procedures and had no time to agree to Song Ci. He waved his hand to signal him to go to the dormitory.
After Song Ci received his meal card, keys and some other belongings, he went straight to Room 310 of the Management College dormitory building. He pushed the door open and saw that there was only a young man reading quietly in the dormitory, which was full of a study atmosphere.
The dormitory is brightly lit, clean and tidy, with two bunk beds and four desks against the wall.
Only the lower bunk near the door was empty, and the other three beds were filled with packed bedding. It was obvious that his three roommates had registered and arrived at the dormitory before him.
The roommate who was reading heard the noise, turned around and saw someone entering the dormitory. At first he thought it was the fourth person in the dormitory, but when he saw that the person had no luggage, he was confused for a moment.
It wasn't until the newcomer put his backpack on the bed that he hesitantly asked, "Are you a new student in our dormitory?"
Song Ci looked carefully at his roommate in front of him. He was about half a head shorter than him, a little thin, with dark skin, and looked honest. It seemed that he had suffered a lot when he was studying.
After all, they were roommates who would eat, live and work together in the future, so Song Ci tried his best to be gentle and friendly, smiling at the person in front of him: "Hello, classmate, Finance class of 2004, Song Ci."
The young man felt a little ashamed when he saw his handsome new roommate, but Song Ci's elegant and modest smile warmed his heart. He then smiled honestly and said, "Hello, I'm your roommate, also a student of finance, Class of 2004, Tang Xiaochuan."
Tang Xiaochuan always speaks shyly. Song Ci talks to him and learns that he comes from the mountainous area of Sichuan Province and this is the first time he has left the county town since he was a child. He is not yet used to the hustle and bustle of Peking and is a little unconfident as he has just arrived.
Tang Xiaochuan and two other roommates reported yesterday. One of the other roommates is named Lin Hao, from Jinling, Jiangsu Province; the other is named Lu Yuguang, from Bingshi, Northeast China.
The two of them went to the campus for a stroll early in the morning, and they were not in the dormitory at the moment. Together with Song Ci, the four of them were all in the same class, Class of 2004, majoring in Finance.
Song Ci simply made his bed and prepared to go out to buy toiletries. Just as he was about to go out, he bumped into two people head-on.
One of them was extremely strong, with a square face and healthy wheat-colored skin. He was taller than Song Ci, who was 1.81 meters tall, and was estimated to be about 1.85 meters tall.
The other person was a little fat boy with a round head, fair skin, and a simple and honest look. He was about the same height as Tang Xiaochuan.
There's an obvious height difference between the two of them standing together, which looks a bit funny.
"Brother, you are here. Now all the people in Room 310 are here." The tall man was very enthusiastic and was very happy to see Song Ci. He spoke in Northeastern dialect, and Song Ci immediately guessed that he was Lu Yuguang.
"Hello, I'm Lin Hao." The little fat man also hurriedly greeted Song Ci.
"Good morning, everyone. I am Song Ci!"
With the four of them gathered in the dormitory, Song Ci was no longer in a hurry to buy things and started chatting with his roommates.
The four of them chatted for a while and then talked about their birthdays and seniority. Lu Yuguang's birthday was in December 1984, so he was the leader of the dormitory.
Tang Xiaochuan was born in July 1985, and Lin Hao was born in February 1986, ranking second and third. Song Ci was the youngest, with his birthday on New Year's Day 1987, and was the fourth child in the dormitory.
Lin Hao spoke in Jinling dialect, "Fuck, you are such a loser, Lao Si. Not only is he so handsome, but he was also admitted to Guanghua School of Peking University at the age of 17. How can others live like this? Do you smoke?"
Lin Hao's family is well-off. He is the only child in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. His parents are both cadres in Jiangsu Province. He has been spoiled since childhood.
But he was strictly controlled by his parents during high school. Now that he was in college and was free from his parents' control, he felt a little freer. He took out a pack of Jinling 95 cigarettes from his desk drawer and gave them to a few people.
Lu Yugang took a cigarette and sniffed it. It was obvious that he was a heavy smoker.
"Nine Five Supreme, it's a good cigarette, but we in the Northeast prefer Huazi." After saying that, he took out a lighter, lit the cigarette, pinched the cigarette between two fingers and took a deep puff, his expression a little ecstatic.
Song Ci waved his hand and rejected Lin Hao's kindness. He didn't like smoking or drinking in his previous life, and he didn't touch either in this life.
Lin Hao did not force it. Seeing that Song Ci didn't smoke, he handed the cigarette in his hand to Tang Xiaochuan.
Tang Xiaochuan was eager to try one, but felt a little embarrassed.
"Go ahead and smoke, second brother. We're brothers from now on, so why be polite?" Lin Hao was very generous. He put the cigarette in Tang Xiaochuan's hand with a smile.
Tang Xiaochuan chuckled, borrowed Lu Yuguang's lighter to light a cigarette, and started puffing smoke along with Lin and Lu.
Lu Yugang blew out a puff of smoke, glanced at Song Ci's bed, and looked around the dormitory, "Why didn't Lao Si see your luggage?"
Song Ci stepped back slightly to avoid the smoke from the three people and explained, "I'm a native of Peking, and my home is not far from the school. If I need anything, I can go back and get it on the weekend, or I can buy new things at school, so I didn't bring any luggage."
When Tang Xiaochuan heard that Song Ci was from Peking, he became even more envious. All his roommates were from big cities, but he was the only one from the mountains.
Song Ci saw Tang Xiaochuan's envious expression and knew what he was thinking. He patted his shoulder and encouraged him, "Xiaochuan, I can tell you that you have changed your fate by getting here. Study hard in college and make the most of your youth."
Lu Yugang also nodded, thinking of the hard study life in high school, he said with deep emotion: "Old Four is right. We will have a bright future if we work hard for four years in college."
He was born into an ordinary working-class family. He always followed his parents' teachings and studied hard. After three years of hard work, he was admitted to Peking University, a top-notch university in the country.
Listening to his roommate's encouragement, Tang Xiaochuan's heart was filled with emotion. He clenched his fists and vowed in his heart that he would work hard and create a better future.
