When Lou Xi opened her eyes, she found herself in an unfamiliar room, with faint sunlight filtering through the partially drawn curtains. It was morning.
Her body felt as if it had been disassembled and reassembled. She tried to get up but felt a wave of weakness, further emphasized by the arm draped across her chest!
A man’s arm!
Her memory seemed to have gaps. Why was she here, what had she done, where was she about to go?
Large chunks of memory flooded into Lou Xi’s mind...
Enduring the soreness, she quickly put on her wrinkled clothes, eager to escape this place. Before leaving, she pulled out her wallet from her bag, thinking she’d pay to avoid trouble.
She took out the large bills inside and placed them on the bedside table. She wasn’t sure about the cost, but this should be enough, right?
Never mind, Lou Xi took one last look at the man with his back turned to her, then left the room without looking back.
...
Lou Xi realized upon leaving the hotel that she had spent the night at a five-star hotel in Nancheng. Did the money she left cover the cost of one night’s stay?
It didn’t matter; that was the man’s problem!
There was a taxi at the entrance. She got in and asked the driver to go to South City University.
She took out her phone, which showed a list of missed calls, only now discovered due to it being on silent mode. She ignored them and called her friend and roommate, Bai Lu.
"Xixi, where did you go last night? Why couldn’t I reach you?" Bai Lu sounded worried.
Lou Xi rubbed her temples; it was complicated, "I’m on my way to school now."
"Alright, come back quickly. Li Ruolan wants to change dorms, and the counselor is already here."
When mentioning Li Ruolan, Bai Lu deliberately lowered her voice a few notches.
Before yesterday, the three of them shared the best atmosphere in the department’s dorm rooms until Lou Xi discovered that her boyfriend had been poached by Li Ruolan!
In this world, there’s no boyfriend that can’t be swayed, only a mistress who doesn’t try hard enough. But this mistress was her roommate of two years, Li Ruolan, and she couldn’t fathom it!
