Chapter 140 Who gave them the nerve? So much trouble!
The other three roommates were dumbfounded.
They didn't expect that even after they said all that, Xia Mian would remain unmoved.
He actually put on an eye mask and went straight to sleep.
The three of them seemed like clowns.
Xia Mian's bunkmate was named Fang Yuan. She had a round face and round eyes. Right now, she was so angry that her cheeks were puffed up, like a pufferfish.
The girl on the upper bunk opposite them was named Li Qing. They both didn't want to climb up, and their eyes met those of Xu Meimei on the lower bunk. "Meimei, Xia Mian is such a stingy person, she won't turn off the light. Why don't you go? You definitely won't be as stingy as Xia Mian, right?"
Fang Yuan looked at Xu Meimei, then glanced at Li Qing.
Li Qing immediately understood and said, "That's right, Meimei, you go quickly, we're all waiting to go to sleep!"
"Why should I be the one to turn it off?" Xu Meimei was annoyed by the commanding tone of the two bunkmates. "Just because Xia Mian doesn't want to, does that mean I do? If you ask me, Xia Mian is right, we should take turns turning it off!"
Xia Mian lay on the bed, listening to the three of them bickering, and found it all quite ridiculous.
"Honestly, Meimei, how can you be so stingy? Just like Xia Mian!" Fang Yuan said impatiently. "So annoying! I thought we could look after each other and be good friends for four years of college!"
"I never expected to have such a stingy roommate," Li Qing said. "Oh well, it seems... someone doesn't want us to sleep comfortably."
"I can't be bothered with you guys." Xu Meimei pulled the covers over her head and went to sleep.
Li Qing and Fang Yuan were dumbfounded!
Xia Mian fell asleep in a daze; she was indeed very tired and exhausted after a day of military training.
In the end, she still didn't know who had turned off the light.
The next morning, at five o'clock, the assembly call was sounded.
The dormitory was filled with groans as everyone hurriedly dressed and rushed out.
"What's going on? Why are we gathering so early?"
"Isn't it usually eight o'clock?"
"Ah! The instructor did it on purpose!"
During military training, there are indeed times when there are sudden emergency assemblies in the middle of the night or in the early morning.
Everyone stepped into the playground, breathing in the fresh morning air and feeling the dew.
The instructors were already standing there, their postures upright and their faces serious.
First, call out your numbers, and then it's time for your morning run!
"One two one! One two one!"
After her morning run, Xia Mian was starving, drenched in sweat, and panting heavily.
Back in her dorm, she took a quick shower to wash away the sweat before heading to the cafeteria.
Zhao Baoqi had already brought breakfast and reserved a seat; the twin brothers were also there.
The three of them studied the same major, so their daily routines were also the same.
Looking at Xia Mian's rosy cheeks, Fu Yanchen's heart raced a little. Mianmian was so beautiful, like a blooming flower.
The thought of having to call Xia Mian "sister-in-law" from now on filled him with sorrow.
"Mianmian, how was your stay in the dorm last night?" Zhao Baoqi didn't sleep well. "Someone in our dorm was snoring, it hurt my ears, and I couldn't sleep at all."
"No way?" Xia Mian didn't expect Zhao Baoqi to be in an even worse situation. "You still have to do military training during the day. Can you handle it?"
Zhao Baoqi took a sip of millet porridge. "There's nothing I can do, I have to endure it even if I can't! What can I do, I'm just unlucky. I really want to apply for a different dorm!"
"Then you can try applying to your advisor." Xia Mian thought changing dormitories was also an option.
"I'm only staying for fourteen days. If I apply to change dorms again, it'll make me seem like I'm being pretentious." Zhao Baoqi thought for a moment and then shook her head. "Forget it, I'll just put up with it. Otherwise, people will talk behind my back and call me a spoiled brat."
"Baoqi, if it really doesn't work out, you can come to my dorm, and we can squeeze into one bed." Xia Mian thought this was a good idea. "What do you think?"
"It's too crowded. The dorms only have single beds anyway," Zhao Baoqi refused. "Mianmian, fourteen days will pass quickly."
She decided to just bear with it.
After breakfast, Xia Mian and Zhao Baoqi were taking a walk on campus when they ran into three girls from their dormitory.
Xia Mian had no intention of paying them any attention.
The three women stopped in their tracks when they saw Xia Mian. "Xia Mian, we're roommates, aren't you going to say hello to us?"
"So what? If I greet you, you won't argue with me about turning off the lights tonight?" Xia Mian's voice was cold, showing no intention of giving the three of them any face.
"We've discussed it and agreed to do it your way. The four of us will take turns turning off the lights," Fang Yuan said dejectedly. Last night, she was the one who couldn't fall back asleep in the middle of the night and got out of bed to turn off the lights.
"Alright then." Xia Mian said and pulled Zhao Baoqi away.
Zhao Baoqi turned back and glanced at the three girls again. "What's going on? Why are you arguing over something as small as turning off the lights?"
"The three of them bullied me and ordered me to turn off the lights at night." Xia Mian found it ridiculous. "I came here to study, not to be their light-turning-off-the-lights-for-them."
Zhao Baoqi curled his lips speechlessly, "There aren't so many problems in our dorm. Everything is done according to the rules, so no one suffers a loss and no one gains an advantage."
"Yes, they did it on purpose." Xia Mian knew that with her status as a million-follower internet celebrity, some people couldn't help but try to trip her up, or were just jealous of her.
She was used to it long ago.
Sure enough, during the lunch break...
Xu Meimei picked up a package and opened it right in front of everyone; inside was a new bag.
"My brother's college gift for me has finally arrived!"
She opened the bag; it was from a mid-range luxury brand and cost around three or four thousand yuan.
Xia Mian is now an internet celebrity, and the LX brand often sends her news and information about the fashion industry.
So she could tell at a glance what the price range of this brand's bags was.
Fang Yuan glanced at the bag with disdain. "Meimei, I'm not trying to be mean, but what do you need a bag like that for? It only costs three or four thousand yuan. That's something poor people carry."
"My mom gave me an LX bag, and I also have Chanel, LS, and many other brands at home!"
"Next time you buy a bag, tell me and I'll help you choose one. How can you buy a bag like this? These are bags for poor people, it's so embarrassing."
Li Qing chimed in, "Yeah, this kind of bag isn't worth much. Why buy it? You might as well save up and buy a better one! At least an entry-level designer bag, something that costs ten thousand yuan!"
Xu Meimei was originally happily sharing her new bag with them, a bag that her brother had given her.
As a student, she can't usually afford such affordable luxury brands.
Her happy mood was instantly punctured like a bubble.
She held the bag dejectedly, feeling somewhat lost and helpless.
“Isn’t three or four thousand yuan money? Meimei’s brother is using real money to buy a real bag, and the bag isn’t fake, so why can’t he?” Xia Mian lifted her eyelids and glanced at Li Qing and Fang Yuan.
"So what if it's a big brand? So what if it's not? Who says you can't carry it if it's not a big brand?"
