Chapter 55 University
The overall design of Linbei East Station is very artistic. The roof is made of fiberglass frame structure, and you can see the sky as soon as you look up.
The afterglow of the setting sun spreads on the glass, reflecting a brilliant yet gentle colorful light.
In the north in autumn, the days are long and the nights are short.
So even though it was already past seven o'clock, the sky was still dim.
After searching the address on his mobile phone, Chen Wan called a taxi to go to school.
After getting in the car, she rolled down the window and looked at the street scene casually.
The buildings in the north are much more sparsely arranged than in the south. Even though there are skyscrapers everywhere, you can still easily see the sunset.
This is the city where Lin Yu lives. It seems to give people a neat and regular feeling, just like him.
There are many sycamore trees planted in the south of the city, with lush crowns that cast dense shadows on the streets and filter sparse spots of light.
The streets along the north side are mostly lined with ginkgo trees. At this time of year, from a distance, they look golden, like flowing sunlight.
The sound of the wind is also particularly distant.
Being in such an environment, my horizons broadened and the depression in my heart dissipated a lot.
After arriving at the school, she took a photo of the school gate and sent it to Qiao Yue.
"Sister, I've already arrived in Linbei."
Then he clicked on the chat history with Lin Yu, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally did not send the photo.
He just said briefly: I have arrived in Linbei.
Then he quickly stuffed his phone into his bag.
If you don't expect, you won't be disappointed.
Most people go through the admission process in the morning. Chen Wan avoided the peak period and quickly completed a series of procedures and received his dormitory key and campus card.
"Classmate, your dormitory is Room 103, Building 3. Don't get wrong. Just walk north along this road and then turn west and you will arrive." The teacher pointed the way to her.
When Chen Wan heard the words "toward the north" and "turn west", he blinked blankly and then politely thanked the teacher.
Holding the campus navigation in my hand, I followed the map to try to find the dormitory.
Most people in the south can't tell the difference between north and south.
So Chen Wan got lost.
After walking around the school for more than half an hour, it was already dark.
She stood under the street light, carrying the box, with her head down, and sighed deeply.
Just when I was feeling depressed, I saw a slender shadow slowly approaching me.
"Classmate, are you a freshman?"
Hearing this voice, Chen Wan slowly raised her head and saw a beautiful girl in front of her, looking at her with a smile. "Are you looking for a dormitory?"
For a moment, Chen Wan seemed to see an angel. He placed his hand on his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, classmate, can you tell me where Building 3 of the girls' dormitory is?"
"You're going to Building 3? I'll take you there. It's on our way. I'm also a freshman. Are you also studying law?"
Chen Wan nodded, "You too?"
"Yes, what's your dormitory number?"
"It looks like 103." Chen Wan took out the key his aunt had given him and looked at the small label on it. "Building 3, 103."
The girl paused her brisk pace, looked at Chen Wan, and smiled brightly, "Sister, what a coincidence, we're in the same dormitory!"
"Are you from 103 as well?"
"Well, my name is Yan Youran, you can just call me Youran. Then you should be Chen Wan, right?"
Because the dormitory list had been sent out long ago and Chen Wan arrived at school relatively late, Yan Youran thought that this roommate would not report until the first day of school.
"The other three people in our dormitory reported here this morning, and we thought you wouldn't be coming to the dormitory tonight."
You Ran is an enthusiastic girl. She kept introducing the dormitory situation to Chen Wan along the way.
"We're here." You Ran led her to Building No. 3, and after greeting the dormitory manager, the two of them planned to go into the dormitory.
Because it is on the first floor, there are people coming and going, and it is particularly lively at this time. There are many girls chatting and laughing in the corridor.
Chen Wan had never experienced dormitory life before and didn't even have many friends. It was his first time experiencing this lively feeling and he found it very novel.
The girls' smiles are bright and charming, and their voices are either crisp or gentle, like floating pink bubbles.
Seeing her like this, You Ran smiled and asked, "Chen Wan, have you never lived in a school before?"
"Yes, I've always chosen schools close to home since I was a kid." Chen Wan smiled a little embarrassedly, "This is the first time I've seen what life is like in a girls' dormitory."
You Ran nodded, expressing her understanding. "I hope you can get used to it later. I think the atmosphere in our dormitory should be very good. The other two girls are very cute."
As she spoke, she turned the key, pushed open the dormitory door, and said to her happily, "Welcome to Room 103."
The bright light refines the leisurely and bright facial features.
The slender eyes are upturned at the corners, and there is a gentle smile in the pupils.
Chen Wan was infected by this smile and nodded, "Okay!"
After entering the dormitory, I briefly introduced myself to the other two roommates.
"Hello, my name is Chen Wan, from South City. I hope we can get along well in the future."
Jiang Yao waved at her and said softly, "Hello, my name is Jiang Yao, from Lincheng, and I hope we can become good friends."
Her voice was gentle, like flowing water, slow and soft.
She has a gentle appearance, fair skin and long black curly hair.
When she smiles, the corners of her eyes are deeply curved, like a crescent moon.
"You can just call me pillow." The last roommate took off his headphones and greeted her lazily, "Welcome."
After a while, he handed her a bag of spicy noodles and said, "I'm from Sichuan. As long as you can handle spicy food, we'll be good brothers. If you can't, we'll still be good sisters."
Chen Wan took the spicy strips, looked at them carefully, and found that it was the kind that Lin Yu liked to eat.
"Thank you, pillow."
"It's okay, this is delicious!"
Chen Wan smiled and said, "I've eaten it before. I have a friend who really likes it."
The four girls in the dormitory got to know each other briefly and helped Chen Wan make the bedding.
After putting away his personal belongings, Chen Wan went to the water room to get a cup of hot water.
When I returned to the dormitory, I found that almost everyone was calling their families.
Chatting about campus life and talking about family matters, she felt the warmth and love that she would never feel again.
Chen Wan held the cup and sat in the chair in silence, lost in thought.
The warmth spread from the fingertips to the depths of the heart, but it could not fill the boundless loss.
After sending a message to Lin Yu just now, she didn't look at her phone again.
Or maybe it's because I don't have the courage to start a new topic.
After sitting quietly for a while, I checked my WeChat messages.
Lin Guagua: Okay, be sure to pay attention to safety. If you have any questions about life in the school, just contact the dormitory manager. The dormitory manager at Minzu University is very nice.
He also sent me a photo of a map of Minzu University.
The location of the cafeteria is highlighted above.
This was expected. Chen Wan enlarged the picture and looked at it carefully.
Lin Guagua: Minzu University has six canteens, and the girls’ dormitory buildings are relatively close to the canteens. When you are outside, remember to eat well, rest well, and take good care of yourself.
The message was sent more than half an hour ago.
Chen Wan read these three messages over and over again, and finally smiled, but his vision was blurry.
I slowly replied to him, "Thank you, you too. Eat well and don't take medicine immediately when you have a stomachache."
After looking at it for a few seconds, he withdrew it and sent it again.
I deleted and revised the sentence, and finally deleted the one about stomachache and replaced it with "You should take good care of yourself too."
I waited for a few minutes, but no reply.
She sighed softly, covered her eyes with a tissue, and quietly calmed down her emotions.
After a while, You Ran remembered something and turned to ask everyone, "Sisters, our broadband package is ready and we can go online. What should we name the router ID?"
Girls tend to have a sense of ritual for the little things in life, so the four of them sat together and studied it for a while but still couldn't come to a conclusion.
You Ran turned on her phone and searched for wireless signals. "Let's look at other people's Wi-Fi names."
After browsing around, I was so happy.
"Look, this one's called 'Teletubbies Family,' and this one's called 'The Slowest Wi-Fi...'" You Ran continued to ask for opinions, "Let's give it something interesting too."
Jiang Yao and Baozhen's suggestion to You Ran was not very interesting. Chen Wan was more casual and anything went well. After discussing for more than half an hour, they still couldn't come to a decision.
Finally, You Ran clapped her hands and said, "I've figured it out, but first I have to ask you sisters a rather private question."
Hearing the mention of privacy, the other three were stunned for a few seconds, "What privacy?"
"Oh, so you all have boyfriends?"
“…”
"Okay, I understand." You Ran looked around and nodded with satisfaction, "That's great, me too."
The atmosphere became more lively when we talked about topics that girls are passionate about.
"Ah, so the four of us are all single from birth. Then I know what to name our dormitory." You Ran clicked his tongue twice. "Let's call it Peony Pavilion and set up a dormitory group at the same time."
She is a person of action. After she finished speaking, she started adding people on WeChat and inviting them to form groups.
Chen Wan looked down at the WeChat notification and couldn't help laughing when he saw the group name.
"The beauty of the country is getting rid of singleness"
You Ran smoothed her hair and explained, "Aren't peonies truly stunningly beautiful? There's nothing wrong with that. Besides, ladies, isn't the purpose of going to college to fall in love?"
Hearing this, the pillow pushed up his glasses and added, "Actually, going to college isn't just for dating, we should enrich ourselves."
"Since we want to enrich it, let's talk about it more often!" You Ran nodded. "That makes sense, doesn't it?"
She speaks in a very interesting way and has a likable personality, and she dominates the atmosphere in the dormitory.
Chen Wan felt that leisurelyness was like sparkling water in summer.
After small matters like Wi-Fi names and dormitory hygiene were assigned, everyone washed up and went to bed to rest.
After a while, the group chat messages began to become restless.
We were discussing what we would do on the first day of school tomorrow. Apart from meeting new classmates, the most exciting and daunting thing was the military training.
So the group started discussing sun protection measures again.
Are you still here in 2020? "I think the only good thing about military training is that it satisfies those who love uniforms. By the way, you can see all the male classmates in the grade and find handsome guys easily."
World Pillow: "I'm not obsessed with camouflage uniforms, I just want to know if any sisters have any recommendations for military-themed novels. High-ranking official novels are also fine, I'm open to anything!"
Ming Mingyue: "I'm more concerned about how hot the weather is and how strict the military training instructors are."
Chen Wan browsed the messages silently. She was a slow-moving person and often found that the topic had passed after she had organized a sentence.
Just said good night at the end.
Everyone still had certain expectations for the military training, but unexpectedly, these expectations were shattered the next day.
In Youran's words, it was completely shattered!
