Chapter 40: The four golden flowers in the dormitory

Yun Feibai had no idea what was going on in Su Luo’s mind.

After nearly half a month, he finally saw his little companion again, and he was genuinely happy.

He smiled and greeted Su Luo, then gallantly placed her luggage into the trunk.

Next, he opened the car door for her and invited her in.

Although Yun Feibai’s gentlemanly behavior was consistent and made people feel very comfortable, every time he performed such obvious acts of chivalry, Su Luo couldn’t help but feel like a princess.

Sigh, this isn’t good at all!

Su Luo silently lamented.

Under the watchful eyes of the elders in the neighborhood, she reluctantly got into the car.

After a moment’s thought, she said, “Isn’t this a bit too conspicuous?”

Yun Feibai gave her an innocent look and replied, “This car? Strangers wouldn’t recognize it as a nice car at all. I’m already keeping a low profile.”

Su Luo glanced at him but chose to remain silent.

She couldn’t exactly say, “Your face is too flashy; maybe next time wear a mask?”

Yun Feibai suddenly remembered something and asked, “By the way, your luggage is so light? Do you have enough things?”

Su Luo gave him a half-smile and said, “I’ve been here for almost a month. If I didn’t have enough, would I be working part-time?”

Yun Feibai knew he had asked a silly question.

He scratched his nose and fell silent.

In this “harmonious” atmosphere, the two of them arrived at school.

Since many juniors and freshmen would be coming to school that week, the senior students’ matchmaking activities were in full swing.

Everyone thought: as long as you quickly rope in a junior or freshman, being single will never catch up with you.

If Yun Feibai had been alone, he would definitely have been the prime target of Q University’s senior girls.

But with Su Luo by his side, the boys and girls who saw them were all quite disappointed.

Still, since they were top students at Q University, no one would stir trouble next to someone who already had company.

So, without realizing it, Su Luo and Yun Feibai helped each other avoid a lot of trouble.

After asking the seniors where the dormitory was, Yun Feibai first accompanied Su Luo to the girls’ dormitory, then gracefully left under a flurry of admiring gazes.

***

Su Luo carried her luggage and arrived at her dormitory.

“4602, this is it!”

She stepped inside and found two girls already there.

Both were striking.

One had short hair, a delicate face, bright red lips, and wore a black leather jacket, exuding a cold demeanor.

The other was completely opposite—wearing a white dress, with eyes smiling softly.

‘This must be the legendary “first love” face’, Su Luo thought quietly.

The girl in the white dress noticed Su Luo entering and was the first to stand up.

She extended her hand warmly and said, “Hello! I’m Liu Luomeng.”

Su Luo smiled and shook her hand, “Hi, I’m Su Luo.”

The girl’s eyes lit up with surprise, “Our names both have the character ‘Luo’—what a coincidence!”

Su Luo smiled and nodded, “It really is.”

Then she turned to the other girl and held out her hand, “Hello?”

The other girl glanced at Su Luo coldly, shook her hand briefly, then let go and said, “Chu Qingqiu.”

‘…What a cold woman’, Su Luo thought helplessly.

Liu Luomeng sensed the awkward atmosphere and immediately said, “Chu Jie is super beautiful; she lights up the entire dorm, right?”

That comment… Su Luo was speechless.

Besides the fact that they were all about the same age, calling someone “Jie” (older sister) was strange.

And saying “Chu Qingqiu lights up the whole dorm” was basically implying the rest were dull.

This young girl Liu Luomeng might be small, but she wasn’t naive!

Su Luo felt like she’d gone from an infinite web novel to a romance drama, and now a palace intrigue drama.

But if it was a palace intrigue, this little girl was quite weak.

Back at the orphanage, Su Luo had a close friend who was a battle-hardened green tea—a master of manipulation who effortlessly charmed both boys and girls.

Every word and makeup choice was laced with subtle scheming.

Thanks to that influence, Su Luo was very clear on what these types were like.

Compared to her old friend, the girl before her was like an open book—someone you could see right through at a glance.

Tsk, these two roommates really had distinct personalities.

Su Luo smiled at Liu Luomeng but said nothing.

This made Liu Luomeng a bit awkward.

For some reason, she felt this new roommate’s eyes were extraordinarily clear, as if they could see straight through her heart.

Since it was the first day, Su Luo didn’t want the dorm to turn into a battleground.

She said, “I wonder what our last roommate is like?”

Liu Luomeng breathed a sigh of relief, thinking Su Luo hadn’t caught on to her schemes.

She smiled and replied, “I’m looking forward to it too!”

Just then, the door opened.

In came the last roommate.

“Su Weiwei!” 

“No, it’s He Weiwei,” the girl at the door said with a smile, shaking her head.

She put down her luggage and immediately embraced Su Luo.

Yes, this was Su Luo’s fully maxed-out green tea friend.

She had been adopted by a family named He when she was nine years old.

Su Luo had just been thinking about her a second ago, and now here she was.

Su Luo was thrilled.

“You actually awakened your talent skill too!” Su Luo exclaimed.

He Weiwei smiled, “I’m surprised as well! So, how about teaming up with me?”

Su Luo shook her head and whispered into her ear, “I’m already in a team.”

He Weiwei looked a bit surprised but knew it wasn’t appropriate to discuss this with two others around, so she swallowed her questions.

He Weiwei glanced around the dorm and whispered into Su Luo’s ear, “That girl in the white dress is a scheming green tea; watch out.”

Su Luo had to admit that only someone of the same kind could recognize one of their own.

She had figured out Liu Luomeng’s nature just from her words, but He Weiwei had seen it in just one look.

Su Luo was truly outmatched!

Looking at this old friend she hadn’t seen in a long time, Su Luo felt nostalgic.

Despite the time apart, she was still as striking as ever.

Seeing her earlier, Su Luo knew she was currently going for a sunny, beautiful girl vibe.

As an excellent green tea, He Weiwei always kept up with the times and was versatile.

From cute little girl to intellectual big sister, from innocent pure flower to tomboy, there was nothing she couldn’t pull off.

After getting to know each other a bit, Su Luo habitually labeled everyone—a small habit she had to help herself better understand people.

He Weiwei: max-level green tea, good character.

As a big green tea, He Weiwei cared deeply about her reputation.

She never did anything truly bad.

For example, she never stole other people’s boyfriends or became a mistress; that was beneath her.

This was why Su Luo could be friends with her.

Chu Qingqiu: cold, big sister type.

Liu Luomeng: minor green tea.

Though their personalities differed, all three roommates were stunning beauties.

Su Luo herself was a little beauty, but in this dorm, she just didn’t stand out.

Oh well, Su Luo thought somewhat dismissively, forget about dating in college.

After cleaning the dorm a bit, it was already noon.

They discussed and agreed to go out to find food together.

As the four of them walked out of the dorm building, they immediately attracted a huge amount of attention.

Su Luo felt that the three beside her were like a beautiful scene at Q University, and she unwillingly enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.

But what troubled Su Luo most was their positioning.

Chu Qingqiu was probably over 1.7 meters tall, He Weiwei was 1.68 meters, Liu Luomeng was slightly shorter, around 1.65 meters, and Su Luo herself was 1.62 meters.

Walking together, they looked like a Wi-Fi signal.

To be blunt, if she walked with them like this again, she’d be a dog!

After this outing, their 4602 dorm became quite well-known.

Women’s friendships always blossomed for inexplicable reasons; after just one meal, they were already familiar with each other.

Back in the dorm, they started talking about their majors and professions.

He Weiwei spoke first, “I’m a fashion design major and a Mage. I’ve been in four Dungeons already!”

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but look her way.

“Wow! Weiwei, that’s amazing! You’ve been to four? Besides the Assessment Dungeon, I’ve only been to one Dungeon. It was super hard, and I used up all the points I earned in the Assessment Dungeon, so I didn’t dare go again.”

Liu Luomeng clenched her fist and put on a determined expression.

“I’ve decided that in the future I’ll only do the Assessment Dungeon. If I die because I don’t have enough points, that would be a huge loss.”

This was indeed the mindset of most people—skimming through the Assessment Dungeon.

Especially for students from prestigious schools, why risk life and death in Dungeons when you can live well off your education?

Su Luo couldn’t deny this attitude, but she intended to focus on both.

Liu Luomeng continued, “I’m an art major and might become an art teacher in the future. As long as I become a teacher, no matter where, it’s a secure job. So I just need to study well and stay alive in the Dungeons.”

Chu Qingqiu remained as succinct as ever: “I’m an Assassin, majoring in finance. I’ve been in three Dungeons.”

Very fitting—both her profession and character.

Su Luo spoke last, “I’m a history major and a Priest.”

She deliberately didn’t mention how many Dungeons she’d been in.

As a Priest, she was inherently fragile.

If she said she had been through four Dungeons, it would invite a slew of questions.
