Chapter 136: New Roommates Meet
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As the freshmen entered the school, they were about to welcome their first large-scale event in school.
The opening ceremony.
“Have you heard? I heard that there’s a super handsome guy in the Finance major this year!” Yang Xin pushed open the door and shouted.
Of the four people in the dormitory, she was the most lively and cheerful one.
“Not interested.” Jiang Weiwei, who was reading Shakespeare at her table, said coldly.
Her biggest hobby was to read some literary works or research things. Jiang Weiwei couldn’t have any thoughts about the handsome lad that Yang Xin mentioned.
In her opinion, dating in university was a waste of time for her.
“There seems to be a few good-looking freshmen this year. We might be able to see them at the school opening ceremony,” Zheng Yue, who was sitting on the other side, chimed in.
After a day of interaction, she was obviously much more open than when they first met. She was also the person who spoke to Yang Xin the most.
“Speaking of the opening ceremony.” Yang Xin clapped her hands and made an expression of sudden realization. “I heard that the venue was going to be set up today. Do you want to go out for a walk and check it out?”
The opening ceremony for the freshmen was actually not as fun as they had imagined. However, it was said that this year, regardless of gender, there were a few good-looking people, so it greatly stimulated the students’ enthusiasm.
Food and sex.
“I’m fine with anything.” Murong Qiao looked at Zheng Yue’s hesitant expression and agreed indifferently.
In the end, the four of them left the dormitory and went out for a walk.
Murong Qiao then took this opportunity to familiarize herself with the school.
Yesterday, she had stayed in the dormitory for an entire day and did not take a good look at Hui University. After all, it was a place where she would live for four years in the future.
The four of them walked on the streets of the school and became a beautiful scenery, attracting the attention of many people.
However, most of them were looking at Murong Qiao.
“Am I that good-looking?” Yang Xin touched her face narcissistically.
Although she said that, she also knew that Murong Qiao was the most beautiful among them.
“Probably.” Zheng Yue smiled, but her movements were still a little reserved. It was obvious that she was not used to so many people’s gazes.
Jiang Weiwei didn’t say anything. She wanted to touch the book in her hand, but she realized that she hadn’t brought it with her when she went out. Instead, she reached out and adjusted her glasses to ease the awkwardness.
“After all, she’s the top student in the cohort. It’s normal for her to be the center of attention.” Jiang Weiwei calmly named the reason and glanced at Murong Qiao, who was completely unaware.
From the day they met, Jiang Weiwei knew that Murong Qiao was the top student in their cohort. However, Yang Xin and Zheng Yue seemed to be a little slow and did not notice this. It was only after listening to Jiang Weiwei that they realized Murong Qiao’s other identity.
“That’s amazing!” Only then did Yang Xin realize why she felt that Murong Qiao looked familiar. It turned out that Murong Qiao was the top student of the cohort.
Zheng Yue then reacted and looked at Murong Qiao’s expressionless face in surprise. She couldn’t help but respect her.
Although Zheng Yue’s results were also top-notch, she couldn’t compare to Murong Qiao at all. Moreover, she was not only the first in the cohort, but also the top scorer of the national college entrance examination.
“If I had known this would happen, 1 wouldn’t have come out.” Murong Qiao sighed.
She did not expect that wherever she went, people would notice her.
Although she was used to this in high school, she was still not used to being treated like a rare animal when she just entered school.
Just as everyone was sighing at the fact that the top scorer of the college entrance examination was beside them, a gentle senior suddenly ran up to them.
“Hello, I’m from the Student Union.” The senior explained her identity and fixed her interested gaze on Murong Qiao from afar. “Murong Qiao, are you interested in participating in the opening ceremony and speaking as the representative of the freshmen?”
The senior did not expect to meet Murong Qiao when she came out to stroll. Coincidentally, the Student Union had the intention to let a freshman speak on stage. She was also in charge of this part, so she directly greeted them and extended her invitation.
Murong Qiao looked at the senior who suddenly appeared and was stunned for a moment before shaking her head.
“I’m sorry, I don’t have that intention.” She didn’t like to attract attention to begin with, let alone speak in front of so many people.
The senior was not unhappy to be rejected by Murong Qiao. She even looked at Murong Qiao eagerly. She secretly felt that this junior was much better-looking than the photos.
Looking good in images and looking good in real life were two completely different things!
“There’s no need to be in a hurry to refuse. If you participate, our Student Union will give you a lot of benefits…” Looking at Murong Qiao’s outstanding appearance and shocking results, the senior felt that she couldn’t let her off. If such a genius could enter the Student Union, it would be a huge gain.
The three people beside Murong Qiao were dumbfounded as they watched their senior’s enthusiasm for Murong Qiao. For a moment, they had a new understanding of people.
In order to tempt Murong Qiao, the senior had spent a lot of effort. She said a lot about the benefits of the student union and the conveniences that she could provide Murong Qiao with in her daily life. Unfortunately, her mouth was about to dry up, and she still didn’t see Murong Qiao’s interest.
Suddenly, a familiar figure swept past the path opposite the building.
Murong Qiao subconsciously looked in the direction that person had gone. The other party’s back reminded her of Huo Yichen, whom she had not seen for a long time.
They had not contacted each other for an entire summer vacation. Murong Qiao did not know if the other party had really come to Hui University to study as he had said back then.
However, the senior’s voice dispersed Murong Qiao’s wandering thoughts.
“No need for that, Senior. 1 don’t have that intention.” Murong Qiao patiently waited for her to finish before rejecting her.
Her tone was decisive and serious so it seemed like she really didn’t want to take on this matter.
As a result, the senior’s words were stuck in her mouth.
Zheng Yue pursed her lips and did not say anything when she saw Murong Qiao reject the student union’s invitation. However, a hint of envy flashed across her eyes.
Seeing Murong Qiao reject such a good opportunity, Zheng Yue felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, as if she was jealous that Nan Qiao didn’t care about such an opportunity to perform.
As for her, no matter how good her grades were since she was young, no one had ever noticed her existence.
Seeing that Nan Qiao was being watched wherever she went, there was a nameless gap between the two of them like a natural chasm.
Murong Qiao, who had rejected the opportunity, stood rooted to the ground. From the corner of her eye, she saw Zheng Yue in a daze.
Her envy and jealousy fell into Murong Qiao’s eyes. Therefore, she made a decision after some thought.
“But I think she can do the job you mentioned.” Murong Qiao’s voice sounded from beside her.
Zheng Yue, who was immersed in her thoughts, was pushed forward unguardedly. Then, she was forced to walk up to the senior.
She turned around to look at Murong Qiao in surprise. She did not expect Murong Qiao to recommend her.
Zheng Yue, who had been recommended, greeted the senior politely.
“Hello, I’m Zheng Yue.” Zheng Yue realized that this was an opportunity for her and quickly introduced herself to her senior.
Her name was shockingly in the top few of the results, so the senior quickly remembered this person.
“So it’s you.” The senior looked at Zheng Yue in surprise. She did not expect the two girls with the best results on the rankings to be so fated to be assigned to the same room..
