Rebirth of the Millennial: Getting Rich After Parents Get Laid Off

Chapter 199 Roommate (Part 1)

Both Li Xunjin and Li Shuyun have experience staying in hotels. Although Shen Qingqing hasn't had any experience in this life, she did in her past life.

So when I arranged to register with Wu Fangyi, I also told her all the important points.

The dormitories at Jinzhong are indeed quite luxurious. Although they are six-person dormitories, there are six sets of bunk beds with desks underneath, instead of the kind where bunk beds are crammed together with a row of small desks facing each other.

The dormitory building has a pretty good orientation, and the natural light coming in from the back balcony is quite good.

When they arrived at the dormitory, it was already occupied.

Two girls were cleaning their beds. Two beds were already made up, and the other two were near the balcony.

The dorm rooms have private bathrooms, all located on the balcony.

Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi ended up sleeping in opposite beds.

"Which side do you want?" Wu Fangyi asked Shen Qingqing, holding a newly bought four-piece student bedding set.

Shen Qingqing didn't have any particular preference for location; she simply chose whichever was closest to her: "This one will do."

“Okay.” Wu Fangyi nodded, put her things under the table, took out a few towels she had brought from home from her schoolbag, and gave one to Shen Qingqing: “Use this to wipe yourself.”

"Hey! I brought one too!" Shen Qingqing smiled, took out an old towel from her bag that was in her vest pocket, and waved it at Wu Fangyi.

"You have enough." Wu Fangyi took the towel back.

Both of them wiped the bed boards themselves. Li Xunjin helped Shen Qingqing tidy up the table and chairs underneath, then opened the drawers and wiped the wardrobe before starting to air out the smell.

Li Shuyun glanced around and then took the initiative to strike up a conversation with the other two girls who were still tidying up.

The bed frame, which had been empty all summer, was covered in dust. I wiped it with the towel I brought, and the towel was already so dirty it was unrecognizable.

Li Xunjin was downstairs helping the two of them change their towels.

I wiped it four or five times before I could finally stop seeing the clearly visible dust.

After wiping the bed board, I started laying out the mattress, and then folded a straw mat over it. It was only September, the beginning of the school year, and it was still so hot that we had to turn on the air conditioner.

There aren't many rules at Jinzhong High School; you can install bed curtains or mosquito nets in the dorm if you want.

Shen Qingqing chose to install both: the mosquito net inside and the bed curtain outside.

Like her two other roommates, Wu Fangyi only installed a bed curtain.

The two remaining beds that were already made up were the worst; they had neither curtains nor mosquito nets.

After everything was packed and tidied up, the changes of clothes from the suitcases were all put into the closet.

As for the four new school uniforms I just received...

Shen Qingqing went outside to check the washing machine, but there was nothing being washed.

He looked up again at the spot above his head where the clothes were hanging, but there was nothing there.

Shen Qingqing poked her head in through the balcony door: "Um, do you want to wash your school uniforms together? If you wash them now, they'll be dry by tomorrow."

Shen Qingqing asked while looking at her other two roommates; Wu Fangyi would have showered with her without her even asking.

They had just chatted with Li Shuyun for a while, and after learning that Li Shuyun was a teacher, their attitudes were obviously less guarded and distant.

Hearing Shen Qingqing ask, he agreed without much hesitation. Just as he was about to take out all the clothes, Shen Qingqing walked in cheerfully, "Wait a minute, let's each mark our clothes. I brought a needle and thread, so you can embroider whatever pattern you like, as long as you can recognize it!"

Actually, Shen Qingqing packed all her things herself; neither Li Xunjin nor Li Shuyun had interfered. So they were quite surprised to see Shen Qingqing take out her sewing box.

But actually, Shen Qingqing hadn't thought of this before. It was only later in her previous life that she learned from Li Chunchun that Li Shuyun had embroidered the character "Chun" under the collar of her new school uniform after she got home, so that she wouldn't get it mixed up with other people when washing clothes.

That's why Shen Qingqing had this awareness.

Shen Qingqing's two roommates immediately showed expressions of surprise and delight.

Of course, in the end, Li Shuyun helped Shen Qingqing embroider her clothes. There was no other reason. The other three roommates had already started embroidering, while Shen Qingqing was still threading the needle. How could Li Shuyun bear to watch?
Each student has four sets of school uniforms, so four students have sixteen sets. The winter uniform is made of cotton, so the washing machine was full after we just threw it in.

One of the girls, who had cut her hair very short, was about to get the laundry detergent when she found that the balcony was completely empty.

Since it's only the beginning of the new semester, students need to bring all their own daily necessities.

Then, Shen Qingqing took out a bag of laundry detergent from her suitcase.

Wu Fangyi, just as quickly, took out a bag of complimentary laundry detergent from her backpack.

The other two roommates: "?"

But no matter what, as long as it's useful, that's fine!
After tidying up the beds and tables, and cleaning the mess on the floor, the four of them, along with Li Xunjin and Li Shuyun, cleaned the entire dormitory.

Having worked together, Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi also became familiar with their other two roommates.

I learned that the cool girl with super short hair was surnamed Yao and named Yao Run.

Another girl had a very low profile, especially around Yao Run; you could easily miss her if you weren't paying attention. Her name was Chen Siping.

Both of them were in the same class, and both were in the same class.

Upon hearing Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi's names, both exclaimed in surprise, "First in the city, second in the city!"

Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi were a little embarrassed by being suddenly called out like that.

The reason they were so surprised by Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi was that the third to fifth-ranked high schools in the city had all gone to another wealthy and famous private high school.

Because they are wealthy, they attract many outstanding students every year, but their college entrance rate is still slightly lower than that of Jinzhong High School. This is because private high schools are wealthy, which also means they are expensive.

The other key high school is a completely public school, known for its intensive test preparation and hard work.

Li Xunjin and Li Shuyun listened to the four children chatting, as they needed to know what kind of children their roommates were.

Time flies when we start chatting, and the school uniforms are washed.

After the four of them claimed their school uniforms and hung them up to dry, it was almost time for lunch.

Li Xunjin and Li Shuyun planned to check out the cafeteria with the child before heading back.

Just as they were about to leave, they heard laughter and chatter coming from the doorway, along with increasingly closer footsteps.

Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi exchanged a glance, and the next second, the door that had been closed was pushed open.

Two girls with hair clips on their heads and slightly messy hair walked in one after the other.

Without even glancing at the other people in the dormitory, he walked to the two adjacent beds that had neither mosquito nets nor curtains.
