Yu Mingxue seemed somewhat incredulous and even looked down at it.
She was angry all day and didn't eat much, but she was already full of anger. However, when she saw food, her instincts still reacted before her reason.
Wen Zhixia didn't say anything, but she turned slightly to the side, picked up an uneaten slice of cake, and stretched out her hand to offer it to her: "Eat it."
Yu Mingxue stared at that hand for several seconds, her face remaining tense and revealing no emotion.
Wen Zhixia reminded, "You can't get your takeout now, the dorm supervisor is about to close."
Yu Mingxue then came to her senses and reached out to take the small cake.
She said, "How much? I'll buy it."
"No need." Wen Zhixia scooped another piece of cake into her mouth: "The shop didn't sell out, so the owner treated me to it."
Yu Mingxue glanced at the bag but said nothing.
Wen Zhixia finished the cake in a few bites and threw it into the trash can. She was about to drink the bottle of mineral water on the table when she heard Yu Mingxue say coldly, "I'll buy your bottle of mineral water."
Wen Zhixia looked down and, for some reason, suddenly found it a little funny. She turned back and handed her the bottled water: "No need, it's just a bottle of water."
After giving the water to Yu Mingxue, she picked up her own cup, went to the water dispenser to get a cup of water, gulped it down, and then brushed her teeth. It was not even 10:30 o'clock when she finished all of this.
Normally, she wouldn't get to her dorm until 10:30. Although Wen Zhixia doesn't like rainy days, she couldn't help but be happy that she could sleep for an extra hour.
She was about to climb up and lie down, oblivious to the commotion outside.
"Wen Zhixia".
Wen Zhixia stopped and turned to look at Yu Mingxue: "What is it?"
Yu Mingxue said, "Help me make the bed."
Before Wen Zhixia could even furrow her brow, Yu Mingxue said, "One thousand."
“…” Wen Zhixia glanced at it quickly: “Actually…”
Yu Mingxue, however, was somewhat impatient: "Fifteen thousand, are you going to take this job or not?"
She originally intended to leave directly, but when she thought about the humiliation she had suffered that morning, she couldn't bring herself to take that step.
“Yes,” Wen Zhixia said readily. “You can come and sit here for a while.”
She thoughtfully pulled the stool out a bit, took out the rag she usually used for cleaning, wiped the table for Yu Mingxue, and then went to bed to change her sheets.
Wen Zhixia asked, "Do you need me to help you wash and dry it? It's a complimentary service."
"No need." Yu Mingxue raised her chin. "A new one will be delivered tomorrow. It's lost."
Wen Zhixia was somewhat surprised. The bed sheet was practically brand new; she had never slept on it even once. How could it be thrown away so easily?
However, judging from the fact that Yu Mingxue started talking about business right away, Wen Zhixia guessed that Yu Mingxue was not short of money at all.
She asked, "If you don't want it anymore, can you give it to me?"
She felt it was a pity to lose something so good.
Yu Mingxue sat in her chair and looked up. Although she didn't understand why she wanted it, she still said, "Whatever."
Anyway, she doesn't want it.
Wen Zhixia worked even harder, and luckily the air conditioning was on in the dormitory, so she didn't break out in a sweat.
She only realized after changing the sheets that the new ones would be delivered tomorrow, so what about tonight?
Wen Zhixia knelt on the bed and asked, "How are you going to sleep tonight?"
Yu Mingxue was idly glancing at the things on Wen Zhixia's desk when she heard Wen Zhixia ask her a question. She looked up and said, "Why don't you just put on some new ones?"
After she finished speaking, she realized, "Where's the new one? The new one won't arrive until tomorrow."
The two stared at each other for a while before Wen Zhixia asked, "Can I use mine for the night? Although it's been used, I've washed it clean."
There's no better way now, so Yu Mingxue hummed in agreement: "How much?"
When Wen Zhixia heard her "hmm," she was already preparing to get off. She said, "It's free. I'll just wash it again later."
She'd already collected 1,500 yuan; even if she were a heartless boss, she'd feel bad about charging more.
Yu Mingxue stared at her for a few moments, then immediately looked listless: "Oh."
She took out a small floral bed sheet from her closet and showed it to Yu Mingxue so she could see that it was really clean.
After Yu Mingxue reluctantly nodded, Wen Zhixia climbed up again. She moved very quickly and finished in less than five minutes.
Wen Zhixia then asked, "Do you have toiletries?"
Yu Mingxue looked at her, and clearly, there was no answer.
“I have some.” Afraid that Yu Mingxue would ask about the price again, Wen Zhixia quickly added, “It’s free.”
She gave Yu Mingxue a spare new toothbrush and then took her to the bathroom to check her toiletries in case she used the wrong one.
Yu Mingxue slightly raised her chin: "I understand."
Although it's not as convenient as having my own off-campus apartment, it's still barely acceptable.
She unlocked her phone and showed the QR code to Wen Zhixia.
It took Wen Zhixia a while to realize that the two of them didn't have any friends.
"Wait a moment." She returned to her seat, picked up her phone which was charging, and opened WeChat as she walked.
Her phone had been used for several years and was a bit laggy, but she timed it perfectly, turning it on just as she arrived in front of Yu Mingxue.
After adding her as a friend, Yu Mingxue promptly transferred 1,500 yuan to her.
Wen Zhixia smiled and said, "Thank you, boss. If you need anything, just let me know, and I'll cover the after-sales service."
Yu Mingxue glanced at her briefly before going into the bathroom to take a shower.
Wen Zhixia wasn't idle either. She originally didn't intend to care about the mess on the ground, but it wouldn't do to leave it piled up like that, so she bent down and picked up all the clothes and dolls on the ground. She was still thinking about whether to divide them up when her two roommates came back.
They watched Wen Zhixia help pack, and their unpleasant expressions softened slightly. However, upon hearing the sound of water, their expressions turned grim again.
Wen Zhixia didn't say much. After putting her things down, she quickly climbed into bed with her phone in hand.
Once the bed curtains were drawn, the world's troubles were no longer her concern.
Wen Zhixia cleared some more messages. Ye Yao was messaging her to ask if the dormitory battle was over.
[Wen Zhixia: That's all for today. They'll talk in the office tomorrow.]
She yawned, and as soon as she lay down on the bed, sleepiness washed over her. After sending Ye Yao a goodnight message, she glanced at Wen Sisi's chat window. Since rejecting her that afternoon, Wen Sisi hadn't replied.
Anyway, they can see each other tomorrow, so Wen Zhixia went along with it.
She yawned, put her phone aside, closed her eyes, and fell asleep almost immediately.
