The people in the room laughed, and with her interaction, the atmosphere in the dorm improved significantly.
Even the aloof Jiang Peiqin picked up a thermos, preparing to get some hot water.
Zhang Zhaodi, although without a thermos, also wanted to tag along to check where to get hot water: "My family’s conditions are limited, so I don’t have a thermos now, and I’ll inevitably have to borrow your hot water. I’ll help you all carry hot water in the future."
Xinyan, hearing this, greatly appreciated Zhang Zhaodi’s temperament.
Cui Haili also smiled and said, "No worries, you can use the hot water in my thermos anytime."
Zhang Zhaodi smiled and thanked her: "Thank you, Sister Haili."
After speaking, she looked at Su Yuelan, who was still on the upper bunk without coming down: "Yuelan, do you want to join us? If you can’t manage it, I can help you fetch hot water."
She saw that Su Yuelan had brought a thermos.
Su Yuelan, thinking her things weren’t organized yet, said a bit embarrassedly, "Then thank you."
Su Yuelan’s mother handed the thermos to Zhang Zhaodi with a smile: "Thank you very much."
Zhang Zhaodi waved her hand and said, "Didn’t Auntie just say we should get along well? Don’t be so polite with me."
A few of them walked out together, and as Xinyan left, she glanced at Li Yutong’s bed, thinking: It seems like apart from that Li Yutong being so fussy, the other people in the dorm are pretty easy to get along with.
After they left, Mrs. Su looked at her daughter: "Lanlan, when will you change your slow nature? Look at the young lady who came later, she’s already done organizing, and you’re still dawdling up there. I offered to help you organize, but you didn’t let me.
If you don’t change this slow nature, how much will you miss out on these group activities in the future?"
Nonetheless, considering the people in this dorm: "Luckily, your roommates are nice. Otherwise, with your nature, I’d be really worried about you being bullied."
Su Yuelan finished organizing her bed and climbed down from the upper bunk: "Mom, don’t worry, I can definitely take care of myself."
Mrs. Su could only pat her daughter’s head and sighed inwardly: "Alright, young swallows must eventually leave the nest."
They were almost done organizing, and the people fetching hot water had returned, chattering about gossip they heard.
After Su Yuelan said her thanks, she left with her family, saying they were going to get some fabric to make a curtain too.
Jiang Peiqin glanced at Xinyan’s curtain and also thought it was nice, planning to bring some fabric from home next week to make a curtain for herself too.
The others could only be envious for now, as they didn’t have the means.
As they were talking about the class meeting scheduled for the evening, Li Yutong and Xia Ruhui came in from outside, each holding a piece of percale fabric. After entering, Li Yutong even gave Xinyan a provocative look.
Xinyan was somewhat speechless, as she didn’t know her well, only having bumped into her at the department store before. Why is she still pestering her? It seems she’s got a real problem.
She better not be foolish enough to mess with her, or she’d definitely show her why the flowers are so red.
Just then, a male voice came from outside: "Which one is it, 30X?"
Someone responded: "Seems like 306."
Then you heard: "This one, this one."
At this moment, Li Yutong shouted towards the door: "Yes, this is the one, you guys can come in."
Li Yutong pointed to a bunk: "Please, seniors."
Today was registration day, so families were allowed into the dorms. The roommates didn’t feel it was appropriate to say anything, but Li Yutong randomly calling boys into the dorm seemed inappropriate to the others.
After the two boys came in, their eyes wandered, making the roommates’ faces darken even more.
Xia Ruhui noticed everyone was unhappy and quickly explained: "We really couldn’t handle it, so we asked the seniors to help. They should be quick."
But she probably overestimated the abilities of these two seniors, as they kept messing up, and Jiang Peiqin eventually couldn’t take it anymore: "Can you guys handle it or not?"
Being questioned by Jiang Peiqin, the two boys felt embarrassed and only after bumping their hands numerous times did they finally hang the curtain and leave.
Soon after, Su Yuelan and her family came back with fabric, knocked and entered, exchanged a few words, then began setting up their curtain.
The Su Family was meticulous with their setup to ensure future durability, as they worried that if it broke, Su Yuelan couldn’t fix it. This irritated Li Yutong: "It’s so noisy, can’t you consider others’ feelings?"
Everyone looked over simultaneously, including Xia Ruhui. Such a double standard, never seen someone so shameless.
Xia Ruhui, fearing public outrage, quickly smoothed things over: "Ignore her, she’s just joking."
Mrs. Su glanced at the two opposite them, the concern she previously set aside resurfaced. Looking over at her daughter worriedly, she thought: I should remind the young lady later to have little contact with those two.
