Chapter 541: An Impatient Visit

"What do you mean?"

Cao Yuqing glared at Zhang Qiuha. The anger she had just suppressed was reignited by the other girl’s words.

They hadn’t even had a chance to get to know their new roommate properly, yet her very first words in the dorm were something like this.

"My meaning is obvious! I thought I’d ended up in a decent dorm, but now it looks like it’s nothing special. Forget it. I think I’ll just go to the library and study."

After saying her piece, Zhang Qiuha ignored Cao Yuqing and the others, grabbed a few books from her desk, and walked out the door.

The three girls left in the room watched her leave, somewhat in disbelief.

Cao Yuqing, in particular, spat fiercely in the direction Zhang Qiuha had gone.

"What is wrong with her! Who goes to the library at a time like this? Is she some kind of idiot who only knows how to study?"

"I don’t think we even know her name yet,"

Jiang Jiajia added. ’It feels like the semester just started, but we’ve already run into so much trouble!’

"Hmph. Who cares what her name is? I have no interest in a bookworm like that! It’d be best if she just stayed in the library and never came back!"

"Alright, that’s enough. I’m going out for a bit, too."

Gu Shuxin said, standing up and preparing to leave the dorm.

"Shuxin, where are you going at this hour?"

"I have something to take care of."

Without another word, Gu Shuxin left the dorm.

After going downstairs, Gu Shuxin found herself at the door to Room 304. After a long moment of hesitation, she raised her hand and knocked. She was even starting to mentally prepare what she was going to say.

However, Gu Shuxin knocked for a long time, but no one answered from inside.

’Is no one inside? Haven’t they come back yet?’

’Cao Yuqing and Jiang Jiajia are already back in their room, and the earlier incident should be long over. How can there still be no one in this dorm at this hour?’

’Could it be that they’ve all been together this whole time?’

As this thought crossed her mind, the expression on Gu Shuxin’s face grew uglier, and her earlier feelings of regret intensified.

"Huh? There’s someone at our door. I wonder who she’s here to see."

The four girls, having finished dinner and returned to campus, had just reached the third floor of their dormitory when they saw someone standing outside their room. This person had just knocked on their door, so she was obviously there to see someone.

But who was she looking for?

Wang Chunhua and Qi Yunzhi both took a look. It wasn’t anyone they knew, so they figured she must be looking for either Shen Nian or Chu Lingxiu.

When Chu Lingxiu saw Gu Shuxin, she stopped in her tracks. She knew, of course, that Gu Shuxin was there for her. She could even guess the reason Gu Shuxin had come looking for her at this particular time.

However, it was precisely because Chu Lingxiu could guess the reason that she felt an even greater resistance to seeing Gu Shuxin right now.

As soon as the thought surfaced, Chu Lingxiu gave a self-deprecating smile. ’When did things between me and Gu Shuxin get to this point?’

Shen Nian, of course, also saw Gu Shuxin. Although she had only seen Gu Shuxin from a distance last time in the neighborhood, it didn’t stop her from recognizing the girl in front of her at a glance.
