Summer Green Apples

Li Qian and Li Jiaojiao followed closely behind.

I happened to see that group of eye-catching boys walking towards the stir-fry shop across from the school.

Li Jiaojiao asked, "Want to buy milk tea?"

"Can."

Li Qian curved her lips into a smile, and inadvertently caught sight of a familiar car at the school gate.

Pingcheng is not considered a developed first-tier city, and the students at Pingzhong Middle School come from ordinary families. The Bentley parked in front of the school is something that very few families in the entire school can afford.

The only time Chi Sui's father came to the parent-teacher conference was in this car.

Some people in the class group even made fun of Chi Sui about this.

Li Qian remembered the license plate number of the Bentley very clearly.

"Let's go..." Li Qian thought that they must be here to deliver something to Chi Sui, so she didn't pay much attention to it. Just as she was about to pull Li Jiaojiao away, she suddenly caught sight of a figure with a ponytail running towards the Bentley.

Her steps involuntarily came to a stop.

Li Jiaojiao asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Li Qian didn't speak, but just pursed her lips and stared at a certain place.

Following her gaze, Li Jiaojiao looked towards the Bentley, puzzled.

The driver's side door opened, and a tall, thin man in a black suit got out. He opened the back door, picked up a white suitcase, put it on the ground, and said a few words to a girl in a Pingzhong school uniform next to him.

The girl seemed quite reserved; she nodded and said something, though it was unclear what.

When she turned around again while pulling her suitcase, she was surprised to see Ji Xiwen with her bowl-cut bangs.

Ji Xiwen originally thought she would have to go home to get it, but Ji Rong actually had the driver bring it to her, saving her a lot of trouble. She was quite happy and pulled her suitcase towards the dormitory building.

She was completely unaware that someone was watching her from under the shade of the tree.

Li Jiaojiao was shocked. "How could she... have a relationship with Chi Sui's driver?"

Li Qian frowned and remained silent.

Li Jiaojiao joked, "Could it be that you're living together?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Li Qian gave a soft shout.

She was always gentle and rarely showed such ruthlessness. Li Jiaojiao was startled and said nervously, "I'm sorry, I just... I just said it casually."

Li Qian's brows were still furrowed. "Don't say things like that again. It's not a good influence. Chi Sui isn't that kind of person."

"That's true." Li Jiaojiao crossed her arms and nodded. "How could someone as picky as Chi Sui possibly be interested in this country bumpkin? What if this driver is Ji Xiwen's father?"

Upon hearing this, Li Qian subconsciously loosened the hem of her clothes.

Yes.

She's just worrying unnecessarily.

How could a picky young master like Chi Sui possibly be interested in a poor student who transferred from the countryside?

-

The girls' dormitory building has a total of five floors.

The room where the dormitory manager lives is right inside the entrance.

Ji Xiwen put her suitcase aside and was about to knock on the door when she found it was half open.

There was air conditioning inside, and a chilly breeze rushed straight onto her through the small crack in the door.

Outside, the trees were lush and green, and the dormitory supervisor's gentle voice rang out from inside the room, "Remember to get along well with your roommates now that you've moved to a new dormitory."

"...Yes, it will."

Zhang Qingyan was holding a key and turned around to leave when she bumped into Ji Xiwen.

She was stunned.

Ji Xiwen said, "I've come to get the keys from Auntie."

"Um?"

The dorm supervisor, with her frizzy, ramen-noodle-like hair, looked quite kind. She grabbed a handful of keys and said, "Student, which dorm are you from? Let me see the slip your homeroom teacher gave you."

Ji Xiwen quickly handed her the sheet from his pocket.

The dorm supervisor glanced at her and said, "Oh, you're also from 217, what a coincidence."

"skillful?"

Ji Xiwen subconsciously looked at Zhang Qingyan.

Zhang Qingyan shook the keys in her hand. "I'm also from 217."

Dormitory 217 is located at the far end of the second floor, a bit far from the water room and toilets, but it has good sunlight and is relatively quiet.

Zhang Qingyan took the key and opened the door, revealing a four-person room with bunk beds and desks underneath.

Both beds near the balcony are already occupied.

Zhang Qingyan asked, "Which bed do you want to sleep in?"

Ji Xiwen: "I'm fine with anything."

Zhang Qingyan placed her bag on the table nearby. "Then I'll choose this one."

"it is good."

Ji Xiwen stood in front of the table and touched it with her finger; there was a little dust.

She opened her suitcase, took out a wet wipe, and cleaned herself.

As they tidied up, the noise in the hallway outside grew louder and louder.

Ji Xiwen barely managed to make the bed, then took a few clothes hangers to the balcony. The balcony only had two washbasins, but no toilet.

She stood on tiptoe to place the clothes hanger on the clothesline, and then washed her hands.

Just as I stepped onto the balcony, the dormitory door was suddenly opened from the outside.

The two people who came in were chatting and laughing, each holding a cup of milk tea.

"Qianqian, did you see how awful Meng Leran's face was just now?" Li Jiaojiao, who was walking in front, insisted on turning around to talk to Li Qian, not noticing the two people in the dormitory. "If you ask me, she's just throwing herself at him. Guys don't like guys who throw themselves at them..."

Li Qian nudged her with her elbow.

She then realized something was wrong, turned her head, and happened to meet Ji Xiwen's gaze.

Li Jiaojiao frowned, her tone very impolite, "What are you doing in my dorm?"

Ji Xiwen genuinely felt that her dormitory life might not go too smoothly from now on.

But there were no spare beds available.

"I just moved here."

"You..." Li Jiaojiao clicked her tongue, expressing all her dissatisfaction through her expression and actions.

She stormed back to her bed and slammed the milk tea down on the table.

Li Qian lived in the next dormitory, but Li Jiaojiao's dormitory always had only two people, making it quieter than her dormitory. She would usually sit in Li Jiaojiao's dormitory for half an hour and chat.

Ji Xiwen ignored the two of them and climbed straight into bed.

Zhang Qingyan, sitting cross-legged on the bed playing on her phone, asked, "Ji Xiwen, have you had lunch yet?"

Her words startled Li Jiaojiao so much that she jumped up from her chair and stared at her with suspicion.

"What are you looking at?" Zhang Qingyan glared at her.

Li Jiaojiao: "Why are you talking so rudely?"

"Jiaojiao, it's okay." Li Qian patted her shoulder, then looked at Zhang Qingyan with a smile, "Qingyan, you moved to Jiaojiao's dorm? I live next door."

"Hmm." Zhang Qingyan glanced at her, gave a curt "hmm," and looked back at Ji Xiwen, seemingly waiting for a reply.

Ji Xiwen shook her head. "No."

Zhang Qingyan said, "Then I'll take you to buy some bread during class later."

"Sure." Ji Xiwen lifted the blanket and lay down.

My suitcase can't hold too much stuff, and the quilt is too big. This thin blanket takes up less space.

Seeing that Zhang Qingyan was ignoring her, Li Qian awkwardly scratched her hair, took a sip of her milk tea, and started talking to Li Jiaojiao.

The atmosphere in the dormitory is a bit strange.

However, this had no impact on Ji Xiwen.

No matter how awkward or suffocating the situation, she can do her own thing as if no one else is around.
