"Oh, really? It’s a shame we won’t be in the same dorm anymore."

Chu Lingxiu said with a smile. She was actually a bit grateful to that Cao Yuqing. Otherwise, she probably would’ve had a hard time finding an excuse to move out of this dorm.

"Lingxiu, what do you mean by that?"

Gu Shuxin’s heart sank upon hearing Chu Lingxiu’s words. It was the first time Chu Lingxiu had ever been so direct about not wanting to be around her.

"For that, you’ll have to ask the one standing next to you."

Chu Lingxiu didn’t give a straight answer, simply looking at Gu Shuxin and Jiang Jiajia with a smile.

Seeing the smile on Chu Lingxiu’s face gave Jiang Jiajia a bad feeling. After hearing what Chu Lingxiu said, that feeling grew even stronger.

Sure enough, after hearing Chu Lingxiu, Gu Shuxin turned to Jiang Jiajia, her expression serious, and questioned her.

"I..."

Jiang Jiajia immediately started to panic under Gu Shuxin’s gaze. ’How am I supposed to explain this? Should I just admit that my friend and I offended Chu Lingxiu, and that’s why she wants to move out?’

’But if I say that, judging by Gu Shuxin’s reaction right now, she definitely won’t be happy with me later!’

"Uh, maybe she just doesn’t like our dorm that much!"

Jiang Jiajia still didn’t dare to tell the truth. However, as she spoke about Chu Lingxiu, she realized she didn’t even know the other girl’s name.

’How on earth did things get to this point today?’

Gu Shuxin frowned. Chu Lingxiu could certainly be willful at times, but she didn’t think Lingxiu would make such a decision for a reason like that.

Besides, Chu Lingxiu already knew that they were supposed to be roommates.

"Lingxiu..."

"She’s not wrong, actually. I really don’t like the atmosphere in this dorm, so when her friend wanted to switch, I just agreed!"

Chu Lingxiu finished with a shrug, as if the whole matter was no big deal to her.

"Her friend? Cao Yuqing?"

After she spoke, Gu Shuxin glanced pointedly at Jiang Jiajia. Seeing Jiajia nod in confirmation, Gu Shuxin fell into deep thought.

Gu Shuxin hadn’t forgotten that Cao Yuqing and Shen Nian were roommates. Now Chu Lingxiu was swapping with Cao Yuqing... which meant Lingxiu would end up in the same dorm as Shen Nian?

The thought of Chu Lingxiu and Shen Nian sharing a dorm surfaced, and the first thing that came to Gu Shuxin’s mind was what benefit she could get out of the situation.

Gu Shuxin knew that Chu Lingxiu and Shen Nian already had a deep-seated conflict that had started because of her. Lingxiu had even physically injured Shen Nian in the past. Moreover, Lingxiu had vehemently expressed her dislike for Shen Nian right in front of her.

So, Gu Shuxin wasn’t worried about Chu Lingxiu and Shen Nian getting along as roommates. With Lingxiu’s personality, she would probably just make Shen Nian’s life miserable!

Even better, given her relationship with Chu Lingxiu, it probably wouldn’t be hard to get information about Shen Nian from her.

The more Gu Shuxin thought about it, the more feasible this plan seemed. Even if it meant she couldn’t be roommates with Chu Lingxiu, it didn’t feel like such a pity anymore.

"Lingxiu, are you sure? Do you really want to switch dorms?"
