Chapter 25 Girls' Dormitory 302 (Part 1)

The naming of the buildings on the campus of Yenching University of Economics and Business is quite interesting.

For example, all three main restaurants are named after trees.

Wutong Restaurant, Ginkgo Restaurant, Maple Tree Restaurant.

The student apartments are divided into male and female sections by the name of the Orchid Garden and the Begonia Garden.

Yang Muyi lived in Building 7 of Lanyuan, which was directly opposite Building 5 of Haitangyuan, where the girls lived. His location was truly exceptional.

Especially on the fifth and sixth floors, the view is not blocked by the trees in front of the building, and the balconies are almost always full during rest time.

Just now, the boys on the fifth and sixth floor balconies collectively erupted in a huge sigh of regret.

Because the beautiful girl on the third-floor balcony across the street finished her phone call and went back to her dorm.

Her departure captivated the hearts of all the boys on the opposite balcony.

"Brothers, according to reliable sources, most of the residents in Building 5 of Haitang are freshmen from the Business School. The saying that the Business School produces beauties is definitely true."

"With that kind of looks, she's definitely the school beauty."

"The guy who said that must be from the class of 06 or later. Back then, Yang Tao, the senior from the Tourism Management Department of the Business School, was the real campus beauty. If you don't believe me, you can search her on Renren. No arguments accepted."

"Senior Yang Tao graduated a long time ago, so don't even think about her. If you're going to search on Renren, search for that beautiful girl from earlier."

Half of the boys on the balcony immediately disappeared; they all went back to log onto the school's intranet to look for someone.

Just then, someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise:
"Look, another beautiful girl just came out of that dorm room!"

"Wow, it's true! Did that dorm room become a hotbed of beauties?!"

"Where is it? Let me see!"

Balcony of dormitory room 302, Building 5, Haitang.

Xu Hongdou came out with her phone in her hand.

"Why didn't you answer my call just now?" the woman on the other end of the phone questioned, her tone somewhat condescending.

However, Xu Hongdou has already gotten used to it.

In her family, her father is the chairman of the board, her mother is the general manager, her sister is the deputy general manager, and she is the only employee who is managed by everyone.

Even after she went to university, her sister would call her every single day.

"My roommate is on the balcony taking a call, and I can't answer it right now. What's up?"

"Did Mom and Dad go back?"

"I'm back."

"By plane?"

"No, they bought their own train tickets and refunded your plane tickets."

"These two old fogies, instead of enjoying the comfort of an airplane, insist on suffering on a train."

"Aren't they trying to save you money?"

"Then why don't you think about saving me money? I told you to apply to Shanghai Finance and Economics College, but you wouldn't listen. That way, your parents can bring you to school and also come to see me on the way, saving us two trips."

"No way! I've finally escaped your and my parents' sight, I want to enjoy four years of happy college life freely."

"Xu Hongdou, are you asking for trouble? Let me tell you—"

"No dating, focus on your studies, find a good job after graduation, I'm sick of hearing you say that."

"Keep listening even when you're tired of it, until you truly understand it."

"I don't want to argue with you. Can we talk about something else?"

"Okay, how are the other people in your dorm?"

"That's great. Besides Nan Nan, whom I told you about yesterday, there's another girl from Hebei Province and another from Beijing. Both of them are incredibly beautiful. I reckon the most beautiful girl in our year will be one of them."

"how about you?"

"That's just how I am. Didn't you tell me to focus on my studies and not get distracted by other things?"

"I told you a long time ago to cut off that ugly fringe, but you wouldn't listen." "What's ugly about it? I think it looks great. That girl from Hebei province has the same fringe as me, and we were just joking that we have the same fairy hairstyle."

"You seem to have some misunderstanding about the word 'fairy'!"

"The four of us took a group photo this morning, and I posted it to my QQ space album. You can check it out yourself."

Xu Hongmi, who was in an office in Shanghai, clicked on her sister's QQ space and quickly found the photo.

"I see. The Nan Nan you mentioned is the girl who was hugging you, right? She's quite pretty. But the prettiest one is the girl with the ponytail. She's the local from Yanjing you mentioned, right?"

"How did you tell?"

"You're making it sound like I never went to university and didn't have any classmates from Yenching University. You can tell at a glance that I'm different from people from other provinces."

"She's been practicing dance since she was little, so of course she has a great presence."

"Mom signed you up for dance classes, but who was it that told Grandma they'd rather die than go? Now they regret it?"

"It's not that I regret it, I just didn't want to learn it in the first place. Many of them were planning to choose ballroom dancing for their PE class, but I insisted on playing badminton."

"Oh, you've become a fan of Lin Dan?"

"Don't you think the scene where he ripped his jersey was really cool?"

"You just think he looks cooler with tattoos, right? Xu Hongdou, I'm warning you, if you dare to date a man with tattoos, even if your parents don't break your legs, I'll fly over and break them myself!"

"Know it--"

Xu Hongdou drew out her voice for a long time, and then suddenly exclaimed "Ah!"

Xu Hongmi frowned on the other end of the phone and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm not talking to you anymore. I just realized that the balcony of the boys' dormitory across the street is directly opposite our balcony. Lots of people are looking, but I didn't even notice."

"You're dressed, right?"

"nonsense."

"If you don't want people across the street to see you in the future, just buy a curtain and put it up on the balcony."

Xu Hongmi said in a gloating tone.

"I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm hanging up."

Xu Hongdou hung up the phone and hurriedly ran back to her dormitory.

"Xia Qing, when you were on the phone just now, did you notice that the balcony of the boys' dormitory across the street could see us?"

The pretty girl with a ponytail in the group photo of the four of them in the dormitory turned her head from in front of the Apple MacBook on the desk.

"Did you just find out?"

"Let's buy a curtain and put it up later," Xu Hongdou suggested earnestly.

"Is it really that serious? I'll go check it out."

Like Xu Hongdou, Chen Nanxing, who was also from Shandong Province, ran to the balcony and found that all the boys across the street were crowded on the balcony. He deliberately waved and shouted at them:

"Hey, do you guys still want to keep looking at pretty girls?"

The boys opposite immediately became as if they'd been injected with adrenaline, shouting in unison:
"miss you!"

"Sorry, it was free to watch before, but you'll have to pay to watch it again from now on!"

After finishing his call, Chen Nanxing rushed back like a gust of wind, grinning as he took Xu Hongdou's arm.

"Let's split the cost of the curtains. From now on, any guy across the hall who wants to catch a glimpse of the three beauties in our dorm will have to get my permission!"

Xu Hongdou and Xia Qing had no objections.

Chen Nanxing then landed on the only girl in the dormitory who hadn't spoken. She was applying lipstick in front of the mirror on her desk and didn't have time to talk.

"Beautiful Yang, say something!" Chen Nanxing asked.

A voice, slightly nasal and a little strained, rang out.

"I have no opinion."
