There were two female interns in the room. One was stuffing various clothes into the closet, while Shi Shengnan was making the bed.
"May I ask if you are Miss Shi?"
"Oh! My surname is Shi. You... need something from me?"
Shi Shengnan recognized Zhang Wenlu; she had just been standing next to her brother, looking her up and down. Zhang Wenlu was curious about her, and Shi Shengnan was equally curious about Zhang Wenlu.
“We are from the Shuiyun Poetry Society of the capital. We just happened to be traveling here and it’s fate that we met the sisters from Dayuan. How about we hold a poetry gathering together and make friends through literature?”
Before Zhang Wenlu could even speak, the woman who came up with her handed over the challenge in a flurry of words.
"Shuiyun Poetry Society... Poetry Gathering?"
Shi Shengnan didn't quite understand what the two meant, but her roommate must have gotten some information from the boy who helped her, because she leaned down and whispered a few words in Shi Shengnan's ear.
"Oh! A social gathering, huh! Our Wild Tribulus Club also longs for the splendor of the capital. Since your poetry club has this idea, that's even better. Let's set a time and then apply for a venue and support!"
Zhang Wenlu and Shi Shengnan happily finalized this friendly exchange activity to make friends through literature, but little did they know that the news had reached Qin Mo's ears at lightning speed.
"Shi Jing! Are you sure you saw it clearly?"
"Teacher, I saw it clearly. More than a dozen key members of the Wild Tribulus Society, including the third young lady of the Xiao family, the youngest young lady of the Xu family, and the granddaughter of Old Master Wu, have all come. I really don't know what the people back home were thinking. How could they let them all come to Great Xia? Isn't it embarrassing enough back home?"
"Maybe they've had enough of tormenting us! Let's hurry up and send these old ladies to Great Xia to wreak havoc on others... Hehehe!"
"Harming others? It's only because the teacher is magnanimous and doesn't hold it against them. If they were in Daxia and they were promoting things like... women's rights... they'd be beaten to death!"
"Alas! This teacher is also having a headache!... Shi Jing, could you... relieve this teacher's worries?"
Shi Jing immediately made a bitter face and cried out in protest, "Teacher, last time I reported my sister and her friends for their 'illegal assembly,' and the two ladies were furious and directly revoked the enrollment of six female students. My sister still hates me to the core!"
"...I'm not trying to be mean, Shi Jing, but you're being way too honest. How could you report your own sister?"
"The students are utterly loyal to their teacher... the students..."
"You should have someone else report it. Liu Chang or Chang Tai could do it!"
Shi Jing: "..."
"Alright, I'll go to the poetry gathering today and talk to them. Oh dear! Is this Queen's Movement an inevitable historical trend that cannot be defied?"
