Chapter 103 - 103: A New Beginning
Even someone with the IQ. of Xiao Qian couldn’t figure out how she ended up in the same room with these people in a school that was overwhelmingly female, almost like a Girls’ Kingdom.
It was still understandable that Dong Yi, who would jump off a building next year and become one of the top three mysterious events on campus, shared the dormitory with her, as they shared the same major.
But how on earth did Shi Yu, a weirdo, mix into the Department of Psychology, Faculty of Science’s dormitory from the Art Academy?
No one could answer this question.
Normally, those from the same department would have a higher chance of being in the same dormitory, but who knew how Shi Yu, from the Department of Fine Arts, mixed up here with Xiao Qian.
Xiao Qian racked her brains but couldn’t figure it out, so she eventually abandoned her efforts to unravel the mystery.
Maybe in her past life, she took 5 million from someone to predict their death, and heaven didn’t let her go even after her reincarnation, bringing this Erhuo back to her side once again.
What goes around comes around!
Honestly, she didn’t expect that Shi Yu would be such a clueless sweetie before the accident, presenting a half-dead appearance when sent to Xiao Qian’s studio in her past life.
Se??ch ?ew?o?e?(.)o?g o? ?oo?l?
After Xiao Qian cured her, she became even more gloomy when she remembered those memories.
Before the accident, Shi Yu had such a ridiculous character that just two more lines on her face would declare her as the dumb daughter of a landlord’s family.
“Brother Chao, you can go back, there’s nothing more to do here,” Xiao Qian said to Chen Chao, who nodded.
“Then I’ll go first, call me if you need anything.”
“Alright.”
After sending off Chen Chao, Xiao Qian started making her bed, and the dumb daughter of the landlord’s family approached her.
“Chen Xiaoqian, is he your boyfriend?”
“No.”
“What a pity. I thought he looked so impressive and sunny, a perfect match for your icy demeanor, oh hehe~”
After laughing twice, she couldn’t continue, because of Xiao Qian’s expressionless face, which had a “Whoever I look at will be embarrassed” vibe.
After all, she was a boss for a lifetime, and she still had a strong aura.
Deep inside, Xiao Qian was crumbling.
Yu Minglang, a guy who always thought himself humorous, had already left her speechless. How come she met another ridiculous girl who thought she was funny after starting university? And this ridiculous girl was even a fujoshi? “You don’t understand what I just said? Chen Xiaoqian, you’re so lucky to meet me. Seriously, I’ll open a new door in your life. Come on, don’t miss out, take a look at this…”
Shi Yu rummaged through her bag and found a few books to give to Xiao Qian.
“Here, look at this page, ‘My Brother is Not Cute At AIL’ Yes, that’s right, I’m a low-key Boys’ Love artist. After meeting me, your lives will open a new chapter and get to know a whole new world!” She was so proud and completely not low-key!
This was why Xiao Qian didn’t dare to take action against the dumb daughter in her past life after taking 5 million from her. Otherwise, for someone who flaunts their Boys’ Love novels around a female boss who was almost tricked by a homosexual, Xiao Qian could have dealt with her three times a day.
“This child is showing off again…” Shi Yu’s parents were a bit worried.
Would this kind of personality be ostracized by her roommates? Shi Yu, who had been carefree since childhood and didn’t understand the ways of the world, might provoke jealousy and hatred from other roommates with her actions. After all, where there were girls, there was Jianghu.
Shi Yu’s parents watched anxiously. If Xiao Qian showed even a hint of jealousy or other negative emotions, they would catch it.
However, they couldn’t detect anything from the calm look in Xiao Qian’s eyes.
Xiao Qian took the books, flipped through them casually, and then returned them to her.
“You should draw more while this magazine still accepts submissions.”
“Why?”
“Because later on, you’ll only be able to draw these things for your own amusement.”
“What?!” Shi Yu gasped, aghast. Could something so ruthless actually happen?
Teasing this naive girl was simply too easy. Xiao Qian smiled, “Besides, all relationships below the age of eighteen fall into the category of puppy love, and puppy love isn’t allowed to have good endings. You can consider drawing comics with themes like mother-in-law battles and workplace promotions, but I guess you won’t be able to handle that.”
“Ah! That’s too depressing!” The Boys’ Love artist felt threatened.
She felt that her life as a comic artist was completely bleak.
After teasing her, Xiao Qian felt refreshed and started laying down the beddings calmly.
While she and Shi Yu were making a fuss, Dong Yi on that side didn’t react at all, not even looking at them. After finishing her bed, she said goodbye to the man who came with her and sat on her bed, taking out a book to read.
Shi Yu, feeling frustrated in her attempts to win favor from Xiao Qian, went over to Dong Yi to introduce herself, but facing Dong Yi’s emotionless face, she swallowed and quietly retreated without saying a word.
Xiao Qian noticed this and took a few more glances at Dong Yi.
The mysterious girl’s reaction was quite unusual.
Ordinary people, even introverts like Xiao Qian, would not be so silent. Her behavior had already gone beyond the word “introverted” and seemed as if she was a ghost in this room.
As expected for a girl among the top three mysterious events, she was already so enigmatic while alive…
There was still an empty bed in this room, which was Xiao Qian’s upper bunk. All Xiao Qian hoped for now was that her upper bunk roommate was a normal person, as she couldn’t hold up against another abnormal roommate.
After making her bed, Xiao Qian didn’t summon her upper bunk roommate, but instead met someone who shouldn’t be here.
As Xiao Qian sat on her well-made bed, contemplating whether to clean up or eat first, the door opened.
Yu Minglang and his observer Qiao Zhen entered one after the other.
Xiao Qian rubbed her eyes in disbelief. Was it an illusion?
“Ai Ma, my tsundere bottom elder brother, how did you get here!” Shi Yu saw Qiao Zhen and exclaimed happily, throwing herself into his arms. At the same time, she glanced at Yu Minglang, “This frosty-faced brother with an innate aloof aura, is he the new dominant top you found for yourself?”
Qiao Zhen ruffled her hair. “You’re talking nonsense again. He’s my comrade-in-arms. Just call him Brother Lang.”
In an era when Boys’ Love hadn’t become popular yet, no one except for Xiao Qian, who had reincarnated, could understand the nonsense Shi Yu often spouted.
If Qiao Zhen knew that his sister had used him as a prototype for numerous BL comics, he would have thrown her off the building by the leg.
As for Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang, they both had a disbelieving expression as they stared at each other, wondering how was it possible that they met in this place?
