Back to 1997, I became the originator of online literature

Chapter 7 Arrival at school, preparation for uploading

The train arrived at Huizhou Railway Station at around 1:00 p.m.

Cao Sheng and Tan Lei got off the bus with the crowd. Cao Sheng only brought a luggage bag, but Tan Lei brought a suitcase and a luggage bag.

She was not polite either. When getting off the train, she not only asked Cao Sheng to help her take the suitcase off the luggage rack, but also asked him to help her take the suitcase off the train.

Cao Sheng didn't care about this little thing.

For the sake of our classmate relationship, I helped her carry the suitcase out of the train station.

After coming out of the exit, Cao Sheng originally wanted to take the bus to school, but Tan Lei got on a taxi, waved to him repeatedly, and asked him to get in the car, saying that she would pay for the fare.

From this, Cao Sheng came to a conclusion: her family conditions should be pretty good, at least better than his.

Because these days, people who are willing to take a taxi when traveling generally come from well-off families.

"Hey! I suddenly want to eat the beef noodles at the entrance of our school. Didn't you say you would treat me to a meal when we were on the train? Let's go eat beef noodles?"

After the taxi started, Tan Lei suggested this with a smile on her face.

Cao Sheng glanced at her, smiled and nodded.

"OK, alright."

He remembered that the beef noodles at the entrance of their school were indeed delicious, but they cost five yuan a bowl, which was much more expensive than the food in the school cafeteria.

But today, Tan Lei helped him advance the more than ten yuan train fare, and now she asked him to treat her to a bowl of beef noodles, actually helping him save money.

However, Cao Sheng did not want to take advantage of her.

So, when the taxi stopped in front of the beef noodle restaurant, he quickly paid the 8 yuan fare.

When getting off the car, Tan Lei complained to him a few words, blaming him for rushing to pay.

After entering the noodle shop, they ordered two bowls of beef ramen.

The portion was quite large and there was plenty of beef.

Apart from being expensive, there are no other disadvantages.

The taste is still the same as Cao Sheng remembered, just a little spicy.

The dishes in Huizhou are generally spicier than those in his hometown.

Cao Sheng, who has only attended college for one semester in this time and space, still finds it a little difficult to adapt.

After taking a few bites, sweat started to appear on my forehead.

Tan Lei, who was sitting opposite him, couldn't help laughing when she saw this. She naturally reached out to take a piece of tissue and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

The touch of this tissue is not very nice, it's a bit rough.

Nowadays, the paper towels in small restaurants like this are usually rough rolls. They are not sold in sheets, but torn as much as you need.

When using this kind of rough paper towel to wipe sweat, some paper powder will easily remain.

The falling paper powder of napkins is a characteristic of this era.

Just now, Tan Lei wiped Cao Sheng twice and saw some paper powder remaining on his forehead. She was stunned for a moment and suddenly burst into laughter.

Cao Sheng didn't understand what she was laughing at.

It was just a little surprising that she would take the initiative to wipe his sweat, which was obviously a bit intimate.

"Thank you!"

He said thank you.

Tan Lei held back her laughter, threw away the tissue in her hand, and gently wiped the paper powder off his forehead with her fingertips.

The touch of skin to skin caused ripples in Cao Sheng's heart.

At this moment, he felt a little shaken again.

He thought that he might as well just chase her and win her over. After all, he was young and had strong physical needs.

But reason reminded him: Don't attack your high school classmates easily! If you don't get married, you will be too embarrassed to see your old classmates in the future.

All his high school classmates are from his hometown.

Maybe in the future, when you go shopping in the county town, you may meet one or two of them.

If you harm your old classmates, how will you have the face to see them in the future?
……

After eating beef noodles, at Tan Lei's request, Cao Sheng helped her drag her suitcase and sent her to the downstairs of her dormitory before saying goodbye to her.

Afterwards, he carried his luggage back to his dormitory.

He lived in an eight-person dormitory, sleeping on the upper bunk near the window.

When they entered the dormitory, there were already three roommates cleaning and making their beds.

When I saw Cao Sheng, we exchanged greetings.

Cao Sheng also began to make his own bed, wipe his desk, closet and other things.

In one afternoon, all eight people from their dormitory arrived.

In the evening, we agreed to go to the cafeteria to eat together.

Walking in the familiar campus, Cao Shengdong looked around and felt like he was dreaming. He never thought that he would be able to return to this campus as a student in his lifetime.

My roommates are all still young.

Some are sunny and cheerful, some are taciturn, some are carefree, and some dare not look people in the eye.

There are all kinds of personalities.

Cao Sheng in the original time and space was a taciturn person.

Because I’m not confident enough.

Apart from being a bit handsome, his academic performance and family background are not impressive. If he was the heartless type, perhaps he could live a carefree life, but he has had a strong self-esteem since he was a child, and he can always keenly see what attitude others have towards him.

Therefore, in the original time and space, he couldn't be cheerful and was silent most of the time.

But, now?

As a time traveler, he was very relaxed.

When he looked at his roommates, he treated them as if they were children. Although he still didn't talk much, his brows were relaxed and there was always a smile on the corners of his mouth. Overall, he gave people a very calm feeling.

"Hey! Third brother, why are you always laughing today? Did you find money?"

In the cafeteria.

When they were queuing up for food, Guan Zhi, the roommate who was in front of Cao Sheng, looked back at Cao Sheng and suddenly asked this.

Before Cao Sheng could answer, another roommate behind him, Xu Fengmao, chuckled and echoed, "That's right! I've noticed it a long time ago. The third kid has been laughing since he entered the dormitory today. I don't even know what he's laughing at. It feels like a weasel has entered a chicken coop, laughing so cunningly!"

This made everyone else laugh.

Cao Sheng couldn't help but laugh twice.

"Can't I even laugh? You guys are too bossy!"

He retorted with a smile.

Another roommate laughed and joked: "Of course you can laugh! But you laughed too much today, so you have to be honest! What are you laughing at? Did something good happen to you? I tell you, if something good really happens to you, you have to treat me! Don't you agree?"

"Correct!"

"That's right!"

"How about you treat me to dinner tonight, Third Brother?"

"Okay! I agree!"

……

Several roommates started to make a fuss.

People who don’t know might really think that Cao Sheng had encountered something good and should treat everyone.

Cao Sheng would naturally not do such a thing.

He has to allocate a portion of his food allowance this semester to upload new books online. Food expenses are already tight, so how could he possibly treat all his roommates to a meal just because of a disagreement?

Several roommates were joking and laughing as they got their own food and sat together to eat and chat, but Cao Sheng noticed that they were almost all looking at the girls entering and leaving the cafeteria.

None of them are good birds!
After dinner, Cao Sheng returned to the dormitory, calmly took the manuscript of his new book, two pens and a cup of tea, and went to evening self-study.

He plans to finish two more chapters before midnight tonight.

After midnight, I would go to an Internet cafe to spend the night and upload some of my saved manuscripts to the Internet.

There is only one reason why I decided to book a night - it is cheap.

Normal Internet access now costs four or five yuan per hour, and it can be much cheaper if you book an entire night.

He doesn't have much living expenses this semester, so of course he tries to save as much as possible.
