Yun Li stepped out of Wu Fang, feeling a lack of appetite and deciding not to eat dinner that night. Arriving at the dormitory, she noticed that Zheng Yating hadn't come back yet. This was the time when everyone practiced their evening routines, and since Yun Li arrived early, she had extra time to work on her technique combinations and final assignments.
After putting away her clothes, she headed to the bathroom for a shower. The warm water cascaded over her, enveloping her in comfort. As she towel-dried her hair, her mind wandered back to the kiss from last night. He must like me too! A smile crept onto her lips at this thought, and she felt energized enough to practice a bit longer.
Ten minutes later, she emerged from the shower with a towel wrapped around her head and a rosy glow on her cheeks. Lightly humming a tune, she donned her soft pink pajamas. Half an hour later, after washing and hanging up her intimate clothing, she sat down in a chair and took out a hairdryer to dry her hair.
Just then, the dormitory door swung open, and Zheng Yating entered, bundled in a coat with her hair styled in a bun, holding ballet shoes in her hands. Upon seeing Yun Li, she set down the shoes and asked, "Did you go out with Jiang Shiyu last night?"
Yun Li was busy untangling the hairdryer cord when she heard this question; her heart skipped a beat. After pausing for two seconds, she replied softly, "Yeah."
Zheng Yating furrowed her brow, seemingly wanting to say something but ultimately holding back. She sat down in a chair and began fiddling with some items on the table with increasing intensity, making a clattering noise.
Yun Li ignored her and continued drying her hair. Soon after, Qin Nianchu and Chen Jin Xiu arrived. They had come back around five in the afternoon and had gone to Wu Fang for evening practice around six.
Chen Jin Xiu kicked off her dirty socks and slipped on some slippers as she looked at Qin Nianchu. "Are you going to wash now or later?"
"I'll sit for a bit; you go ahead," Qin Nianchu replied.
Chen Jin Xiu grabbed a basin to start filling it with clothes. Just then, Zheng Yating spoke up. "I'll wash first."
Chen Jin Xiu glanced at her; Zheng Yating was leisurely removing her makeup without having taken down her hair yet.
Frowning slightly, Chen Jin Xiu said, "You got here early; why haven't you gone in yet?"
Zheng Yating didn't look at her and continued with her makeup removal while replying curtly, "Who says you have to go in right away just because you arrived early? Is it wrong if I want to wait before washing?"
Chen Jin Xiu was not one to tolerate such an attitude; she pulled open the bathroom door and stepped inside.
Zheng Yating immediately stood up, her face flushed with anger as she exclaimed, "What a damn misfortune to be assigned to this dormitory!"
Qin Nianchu, slowly removing her hairnet and styling clips, replied, "Who told someone to throw a tantrum and get kicked out? Now you’re here to bring us trouble."
Hearing this, Zheng Yating turned her head, her face still half made up and looking extremely displeased. She bit her lip hard and reluctantly sat back down. She understood the situation well enough; she was no match for the three of them alone.
Qin Nianchu scoffed when she saw that Zheng Yating didn’t have the guts to fight back.
Yun Li, who had been drying her hair and hadn’t heard the exchange, noticed the tension but kept quiet. After finishing with the hairdryer, she put it away in the cabinet. She checked her phone but saw that Jiang Shiyu hadn’t messaged yet.
Opening her contacts, she found her mother’s number and called her. Deng Ting was still busy with work and only exchanged a few words with Yun Li before hanging up.
Yun Li opened a pack of milk and sipped it slowly. After finishing, she tossed the empty carton into the trash can and set her phone down to wash up. While brushing her teeth, she wondered what he was doing at that moment.
Around ten o'clock at night, Jiang Shiyu emerged from the laboratory, looking utterly exhausted. He went to the cafeteria for a meal before heading back to the dormitory.
Inside the dorm, several boys were chatting loudly. The heating was on, making their voices even more pronounced. Before he even entered, Jiang Shiyu could hear their banter.
As he opened the door, the three boys noticed his arrival. Qin Nianzhe leaned back in his chair, stretching his neck with a mischievous grin as he asked, "Did Professor Zhang drag you into the lab to do all the heavy lifting?"
Jiang Shiyu casually shoved his hands into his pockets and kicked at Nianzhe's chair leg with enough force to send him tumbling off his seat.
