From Wage Slave to Tycoon novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Chapter 37: I Forgot My Brother

"Your dorm is in the New Century University Village, Building 3, Room 302. A four-piece bedding set is provided. Anything else you need... you can buy at the commercial area near the dorms!"

After completing the registration process and getting clear directions to the dormitory, the two of them picked up their luggage and headed that way.

"Are you sure about this? You’re really going to live in the dorms? And what’s the deal with this outfit? Where are the ones you bought before?" Su Chen asked, puzzled, as he looked at the cheap floral dress Su Qingya was wearing.

"Yeah~ Of course I’m staying in the dorm. It’d be too much of a hassle to go home every day. As for my clothes..."

Su Qingya glanced down at her little floral dress and pouted. "What’s wrong with it? My mom spent fifty yuan on this for me!"

Su Chen smiled at her words and didn’t press the issue. After all, some things... she had to experience for herself to truly understand.

University wasn’t a sheltered high school bubble where everyone naively believed in friendship. It was a miniature society, full of complex interpersonal politics and backstabbing. Someone could act like your best friend to your face, only to be the one spreading rumors behind your back.

Still, Su Chen didn’t intervene. Everyone has their own path in life. How could she understand the harshness of reality without weathering a few storms?

It took them about half an hour of walking to finally find the women’s dormitory.

Say what you will, Shanghai University was massive. If they hadn’t kept asking for directions, there’s no telling when they would have found the place.

Su Chen stopped in front of the women’s dormitory.

"Qingya, I won’t go up into the women’s dorm. You’ll have to take this up yourself. I’ll wait for you down here!" As he spoke, he handed the suitcase to Su Qingya.

"Hehe~ Brother, aren’t you curious to see what the legendary women’s dorms look like on the inside?" Su Qingya teased, a sly grin spreading across her face.

"Get out of here. Am I that kind of person?" Su Chen shot her an exasperated glare.

Su Qingya giggled, then grabbed her suitcase and headed into the dormitory. Su Chen found a spot to sit down, lit a cigarette, and began to quietly appreciate the beautiful scenery passing by.

’Summer really is the best. Everyone’s dressed so lightly!’ he thought, watching the stylish and beautiful university students walk by. The sight seemed to make the air feel a few degrees cooler.

By the time Su Qingya hauled her suitcase up to the third floor, she was already panting. ’This is killing me! I knew I shouldn’t have packed so much!’

She wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead and finally took a look around the third floor.

’302... so this is my room!’

Seeing the door was ajar, Su Qingya pushed it open and stepped inside.

The moment she entered, Su Qingya was dumbfounded!

She had expected the dorm to be like her high school’s, just a series of single rooms. She never imagined a university dorm would be an actual suite.

Su Qingya saw that the entire suite had a three-bedroom, one-living-room layout. The living room had been converted into a common study area, furnished with five or six desks and chairs.

"You’re a new student checking in, right? What’s your name?" asked a middle-aged woman who looked like a teacher, holding a small booklet.

"My name is Su Qingya!"

"Su Qingya... Su Qingya... ah, here you are. Your room is over there!" the middle-aged woman said, pointing nearby.

"Okay, thank you, ma’am!"

Su Qingya dragged her luggage into the bedroom. Three people were already inside; she was the last to arrive.

A woman with short hair, who was organizing clothes on the bed nearest the door, spotted Su Qingya standing there and looking around. She smiled and said, "Our last roommate is here! Welcome, welcome!"

"Oh! Hi, everyone. I’m Su Qingya, from Wudu."

The short-haired woman climbed down from her bunk. "Hi, I’m Qin Nan, from Yangcheng City!"

Just then, another person climbed down from her bed.

She wasn’t very tall, maybe a little over five feet, the classic ’baby face with a bombshell figure’ type. "Hi, I’m Zhao Ya, from Ice City!"
