Chapter 5: Chapter 05 Dormitory Quarrel, a Group of Demons_1
After lights out at eleven, Nanxi was lying in bed, her mind a mess, Baobao, who slept beneath her, exclaimed for about the umpteenth time, "I wonder what type of woman a man like Lu Yinchu would like. I'm really curious!"
Yang Su interrupted, "Definitely not someone like you!"
Lan Qiqi laughed out loud, Baobao retorted, "Yang Su, do you have a grudge against me?"
Although Baobao's family background is respectable, Yang Su was the classic rich girl. Even though her family wasn't in H city, her parents were well-known and reputable figures there, merely a step above Baobao, but not worse!
Yang Su snorted, "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Do you think your 'talents' could attract Lu Yinchu? Or your 'looks' could match Lu Yinchu? Or do you possess the intelligence to deal with Lu Yinchu?... If I remember correctly, you chased Yan Chenqing for over a year, but in the end did Yan Chenqing ever give you the time of day? Um?..."
"Taking it back a bit, when Li Weihuan was still in the country and we all gathered together, just hearing that you would attend would make Yan Chenqing attempt to avoid the event. You couldn't even deal with one Yan Chenqing, yet you're dreaming of winning over Lu Yinchu? What a joke..."
Upon hearing this, Baobao sprang out of bed, Yang Su's bed was right above hers and she rushed over, pointing a finger at Yang Su, "Yang Su, what did you just say? How dare you talk about me like that, how dare you..."
"What am I afraid of?" Yang Su sat up straight, her face fearless in the dim light, "Baobao, don't think that just because everyone around you addresses you as 'Baobao' means that they consider you a treasure. Since we are almost graduating, I don't need to maintain a facade of peace with you. Are you ready to admit what you did to Li Weihuan when Nanxi was ill two years ago? Do you dare to..."
Yang Su was so furious she was shaking, but she was choking up and couldn't get the words out. Nanxi got out of bed to break up the fight, Lan Qiqi usually wasn't the sort to interfere, but seeing Nanxi descending, she reluctantly followed suit...
"Yang Su, don't make yourself out to be better than you are. What I've done is my business. Why can't I like Nanxi's man? Love is free, they aren't even married, why can't I like him? Besides, Nanxi hasn't said a word, so what are you all worked up about? It can't be that you also have feelings for Li Weihuan!"
"Damn!" Yang Su threw off her blanket and got down from the bed, grabbing Baobao by the collar, ready to slap her. Luckily, Nanxi managed to stop her…
Eventually, Baobao put on her clothes, took her notebook, and left the dormitory. Lan Qiqi stayed behind to coax Yang Su, while Nanxi raced downstairs after Baobao!
At the staircase, Baobao was making a call, her voice sorrowful and choked with tears, "... just come and pick me up in ten minutes. I want to go home. I can't stand staying in the dorm anymore, it's hell in there, not a single good person!"
...
When Nanxi returned to the dorm, Yang Su and Lan Qiqi were already lying in their beds. Seeing Nanxi walk in, Yang Su asked, "What happened? Did she swear at you?"
Nanxi pursed her lips, a swearing match?
That really was...
"It seemed like someone came to pick her up. I don't think she'll be in any danger, so I came back!"
Having finished talking, Nanxi climbed up to her bed.
Lan Qiqi chuckled, "I told you before, there's no need to worry about her. She would never let herself suffer unnecessary hardships..."
Yang Su sighed, "I usually have such a good temperament, why can't I keep my cool when it comes to Baobao?"
Nanxi held her peace…
The dormitory quickly quieted down, restoring its tranquillity.
Nanxi was a bit tired, and as soon as her head hit the pillow, she started to doze off...
Just as she had adjusted herself to a comfortable sleep position and prepared to surrender to the arms of Morpheus, a sharp ringtone cut through the silence...
