Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 722 Why take a bath?

Lu Yuanqiu: "..."

He raised a finger and pointed at Liu Wangchun, emphasizing his words: "Could you please stop using such vulgar language to describe checking into a hotel? What do you mean by 'booking a room'?"

Liu Wangchun rolled her eyes at him with a disdainful look that seemed to reach all the way to the roof of the car.

Lu Yuanqiu explained seriously, "Cao Shuang happens to be at the hotel too, let's go find him."

Liu Wangchun asked in surprise, "The three of you are crammed into one room?"

"Heh, heh heh..." Lu Yuanqiu smiled bitterly, his face contorted with grief.

He finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "How did you get into Zhuhai University?"

"Does going to see him necessarily mean sharing a room with him?"

"You big idiot Chun!"

Liu Wangchun turned around and sat in the passenger seat without saying a word.

Bai Qingxia peeked over with concern and slapped Lu Yuanqiu on the shoulder: "Why are you yelling at her?"

"I..." Lu Yuanqiu looked very innocent.

Liu Wangchun pouted in the front row, looking aggrieved.

The driver turned his head: "Miss, should we kick him out of the car?"

Lu Yuanqiu immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, Brother Chun, I was too harsh just now."

"What a joke, on this highway..." Lu Yuanqiu put on a fawning smile, trying to make sure his expression was reflected in the rearview mirror so the driver could see it.

Liu Wangchun didn't seem to mind. After a few seconds, he changed the subject. That's one good thing about Brother Chun.

"Where's Zheng Yifeng? Does he want to come with us tomorrow?"

Lu Yuanqiu: "It seems he won't be leaving until tomorrow morning."

Zheng Yifeng had originally planned to refuse, but when he heard that Lu Yuanqiu and the other person were going, he agreed to go along. His second uncle also wanted to introduce him to more people, and he would ask him if he was going to any of these business banquets.

But Lu Yuanqiu felt that Zheng Yifeng's second uncle must have some of the traits of a "nephew-showing maniac".

Lu Yuanqiu: "By the way, which university did your sister and Zhang Yifei go to?"

Liu Wangchun: "Lugong University... Liu Jianqing and Zhang Yifei have been dating for five years and haven't broken up yet. They have a really good relationship. Zhang Yifei is my sister's first love."

Lu Yuanqiu: "So, how's your relationship with your sister?"

Liu Wangchun glanced at the driver next to her, as if the driver's ears could hear again at this moment. She did not respond, and Lu Yuanqiu tactfully did not ask any further questions.

"It probably isn't very good..." Bai Qingxia thought to herself, because she had spent so much time with Liu Wangchun and had never heard Liu Wangchun talk about his sister.

……

They arrived in Lucheng at 4:30 pm, and Lu Yuanqiu guessed that Ruan Yueru was taking a math exam.

It's unclear whether Cao Shuang was waiting outside the exam hall or feeling dejected in his room.

"Hello, one double room."

Standing in front of the hotel counter, Lu Yuanqiu handed over his ID card, deliberately keeping his expression tense and not revealing any emotion.

He could sense Bai Qingxia's hesitant expression as she stood beside him, and he could guess her conflicted feelings about wanting to offer her opinion at this moment. At this time, a man should be more decisive and cut to the chase.

"Hello, 2208, there is an elevator on your left."

The receptionist handed over the room key, her gaze lingering on Bai Qingxia's face for a few moments. She didn't know whether to envy the girl or praise the boy for his good fortune.

However, doing this kind of work, she has indeed seen too many handsome men and beautiful women. Every time she helps them check in, she feels a pang of heartache because she can guess what they are going to do next. This is really not friendly to single people.

"2208, looks like we're not meant to be with Xiaoyueyue." Lu Yuanqiu muttered to himself after entering the elevator.

Bai Qingxia did not respond; her silent expression was reflected in the mirror inside the elevator.

Lu Yuanqiu glanced to the side; this decision, made without prior consultation, did indeed make him feel somewhat guilty.

The elevator numbers started rising from 1. "...Why so quiet?" Lu Yuanqiu asked, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Bai Qingxia glanced up at him: "It's nothing..."

Lu Yuanqiu: "Oh."

"I'm going to chat with Cao Shuang later. If you're going to take a shower, go ahead and do it."

Why take a shower?

"No, oh no... I mean, take a shower... You're not going to shower? Whatever, didn't you sweat today?"

"Oh, okay... I'll wash." Bai Qingxia quickly replied.

"Ah."

Despite being an old married couple, the atmosphere in the elevator became inexplicably ambiguous. Bai Qingxia kept tugging at the hem of her skirt with her fingers, her eyes gazing up at the rising numbers on the elevator.

Lu Yuanqiu carefully recalled that he didn't seem to have ever slept in a double room with Bai Qingxia in a hotel before. The only time they had slept in a twin room was before they confirmed their relationship.

This was their first time sharing a bed after confirming their relationship, no wonder the atmosphere was so intense.

After putting his backpack away in the room, Lu Yuanqiu sent a message to Cao Shuang, who was actually at the hotel.

Seeing Lu Yuanqiu about to leave, Bai Qingxia happily jogged after him, holding onto the door and asking expectantly, "You probably won't be coming back to sleep tonight, right?"

Lu Yuanqiu was dumbfounded: "? Of course I'll come back."

Bai Qingxia's smile vanished.

"Oh...close the door, time to take a shower."

She closed the door to the room expressionlessly.

Lu Yuanqiu stood outside, bewildered. "Your expression changes so obviously! Aren't you even pretending?"

After closing the door, Bai Qingxia sat alone on the edge of the bed in a daze for a while. In the end, she gave up thinking and took out her nightgown to prepare for a shower.

When Lu Yuanqiu went upstairs, he told Cao Shuang the reason for his return. Cao Shuang also said that she had just returned to the hotel from the examination hall not long ago.

“I saw Li Bowen. He even put his hand on Ruan Yueru’s shoulder when he entered the examination room this afternoon.”

Upon entering 2317, Cao Shuang immediately reported the matter to Lu Yuanqiu.

Lu Yuanqiu: "They probably used to get along like brothers, but who would have thought that Xiaoyueyue would take the girly route now."

Cao Shuang: "She was originally a girl..."

Lu Yuanqiu sat on the edge of the bed, shrugged and smiled, then lay back: "I'm a little curious, did she realize she was a girl first, or did she discover she had a boy she liked first?"

Just as Cao Shuang was about to speak, he suddenly and alertly raised a finger to his lips.

Lu Yuanqiu looked at him strangely.

"I'm back," Cao Shuang mouthed.

Holy crap, incredible hearing.

Lu Yuanqiu sat up in bed and turned to look in the direction of the door, but he didn't hear a thing.

Cao Shuang tiptoed to the door and pressed his ear against it. Lu Yuanqiu followed suit and indeed heard footsteps and a series of conversations, including Ruan Yueru's voice, but... there was another male voice as well.

Cao Shuang's expression changed, and his eyebrows shot up.

Li Bowen's voice!

Damn it, they've all followed us to the hotel!
Cao Shuang reached out to open the door, but Lu Yuanqiu quickly stopped him, whispering, "What are you doing?"

Cao Shuang: "I went to eavesdrop on what they were talking about, but I couldn't hear anything after I went inside."

After he finished speaking, he opened the door directly. Lu Yuanqiu said "Hey" but couldn't stop him. As a result, just as the door to 2317 opened, the door to 2318 coincidentally closed at the same time. Lu Yuanqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, thinking that he was going to run into them.

　I'll take a break first. I'll try to post the update after midnight; if I can't, I'll let you know in the comments of this chapter.
