Chapter 13: New roommate, Gu Lianxing

~7 min read 1,303 words

The boy still wanted to follow in, but Gu Lianxing turned around and blocked him at the door.

"Don't come in, the aunt downstairs said, you must leave within five minutes, give me the things."

The boy had fair skin, wearing a white top and gray casual pants, with half-long broken bangs and a pair of black-rimmed glasses. The lenses were visibly thick, making him look a bit dull.

He nodded expressionlessly, pushed the suitcase into the dorm, and turned to leave.

Although they were of opposite sexes and helped move things, Shen Ci could feel that they were not a couple.

"My driver's son, Department of Mathematics."

Gu Lianxing said casually.

Shen Ci understood. Looking at Gu Lianxing's appearance and temperament, it was not hard to guess that her family background was good. She looked like a pampered girl who had been raised richly since childhood.

Gu Lianxing came to the bed opposite Shen Ci and looked at it. It looked very reluctant: "Then I will choose this one, facing you."

As she spoke, she suddenly tilted her head and smiled at Shen Ci: "You are so beautiful."

Shen Ci was slightly stunned, as if she didn't expect the thinking of this wealthy young lady to be so jumpy, praising herself without any warning.

"You are also very beautiful." She returned the compliment politely, and Gu Lianxing was indeed very beautiful, the kind of bright beauty.

The next second, Gu Lianxing curled her lips: "This dorm seems to have been empty for a long time, there is a thick layer of floating dust everywhere."

"You shouldn't know how to clean, right?" Shen Ci looked at her and asked.

Gu Lianxing nodded without avoiding it, looking at Shen Ci with some difficulty: "If I let you clean it alone, would it seem like I'm a bit too much?"

"I can treat you to a big meal!" Gu Lianxing's eyes lit up.

Shen Ci couldn't help but laugh. Her new roommate was not only beautiful but also a bit cute. She liked her a little.

"Leave it to me." Shen Ci said and took out her phone to fiddle with it.

Gu Lianxing leaned over curiously to look, only to see Shen Ci click on a group called "University of Technology Dormitory Cleaning Order Group."

"West District Girls' Dorm Building C Room 336 opening cleaning, 3 spots, one fen each, first come first served."

Someone in the group jumped out to take the order immediately.

Gu Lianxing blinked in surprise: "Can it be like this?"

Shen Ci explained softly: "These people in the group are all students of our University of Technology, boys and girls, basically some people with financial difficulties, usually taking some cleaning work in the dorm to earn some living expenses."

This group was pulled by a classmate when she first entered school. Although as a special recruit of the school, she had some subsidies every month, she still occasionally took orders in the group to earn some extra money. Later, after being with Li Xiao, Li Xiao didn't agree, so she stopped taking orders.

But she had never quit this group, and it happened to come in handy today.

Before long, three girls knocked on the dorm door with tools, all of them freshmen.

"Hello, senior."

Several little girls were very polite. Shen Ci took the initiative to order: "This is an empty dorm, there should be many sanitary dead corners, you have to work hard to clean it deeply."

One fen per person was a very high price. Shen Ci also considered that the dorm needed deep cleaning when she offered the price, so she increased the reward.

Gu Lianxing also hurriedly opened her mouth: "Especially the bathroom, it must be cleaned."

Several little girls nodded one after another: "Don't worry, senior, leave it to us."

The time for one dorm cleaning was two hours. Standing here was also in the way. Shen Ci looked at Gu Lianxing and asked: "Then let's go out for a stroll first?" Gu Lianxing naturally had no opinion. When cleaning, dust was flying everywhere, and she didn't want to stay in the dorm.

It was just that after leaving the dorm, Gu Lianxing was exceptionally silent all the way, not saying a word.

Shen Ci was full of confusion. Just as she was wondering, the other party suddenly turned to look at her and shouted: "Ah!"

Shen Ci was startled, standing in place with a shocked expression: "Ah?"

"I finally remembered, Shen Ci, right? I remember you!" Gu Lianxing looked at her excitedly and said: "You are Li Xiao's girlfriend. Someone took a photo of you and posted it on the school forum when you first entered school last year. I've seen it!"

"Oh, finally remembered, scared me to death. I said I felt a bit familiar when I saw you, and I felt like I must have heard your name after knowing it, thought about it for a long time and finally remembered."

As she spoke, she let out a long breath, showing a relieved expression.

Shen Ci was speechless and found it funny. So she was silent just now because she was trying hard to remember who she was.

But listening to her tone when mentioning Li Xiao, it seemed that she was very familiar.

"Do you know Li Xiao?" Shen Ci asked tentatively.

Gu Lianxing curled her lips and nodded: "Yes, my dad and his dad are friends in business, and I have known him since I was very young, but there are few opportunities to meet, so it's not very familiar, just occasionally meeting when the elders meet and socialize."

"But I know about you dating. Li Xiao was holding roses and confessing to you downstairs at the girls' dorm, I saw it at the time."

"I broke up with him." Shen Ci was afraid that she would say any more beautiful and envious words, so she hurriedly opened her mouth to interrupt her.

Gu Lianxing opened her mouth: "Ah?"

Shen Ci smiled indifferently and nodded gently at Gu Lianxing.

Gu Lianxing's expression changed, but she couldn't help but ask: "Why?"

Shen Ci pursed her thin lips, wanting to speak but stopping. In her previous life, Li Xiao's plagiarism of her paper happened three years later, so she obviously couldn't use this as a reason at this time.

She hesitated for a moment, leaned close to Gu Lianxing's ear, and whispered: "He... that's not very capable..."

"That? Which one?" Gu Lianxing blinked blankly, and after noticing Shen Ci's meaningful expression, her pretty face blushed to the root of her neck: "That that that that one?"

Shen Ci raised her finger and placed it on her lips, signaling her not to speak out: "Don't tell others."

Noticing that there was no one around, Gu Lianxing's shy expression just now turned, lowered her voice, and asked suspiciously: "Shouldn't be, he... he looks quite capable!"

Shen Ci shook her head in disappointment: "Don't judge a book by its cover."

"Tsk tsk tsk." Gu Lianxing also shook her head: "A big guy over 1.8 meters tall, grew in vain."

Because of this topic, the relationship between the two actually became much closer. Walking through the West District playground arm in arm and out of the school gate, Gu Lianxing said she wanted to treat Shen Ci to a breakup meal.

As a result, the two appeared in a fly restaurant behind the University of Technology together.

Gu Lianxing looked around with difficulty, and picked up a paper towel to wipe the table in front of her again and again, but no matter how much she wiped, there were still oil stains.

"I said I'd treat you to a big meal, and you chose here?"
