Chapter 20 Verse 17

  17、

  Su Ya Ke stormed into the 441 female dormitory with a bad temper. She was not someone who easily accepted new roommates, especially since these people had moved in without even greeting her. She would rather live here alone and quietly with Fang Yuan than welcome those common and ignorant girls.

  A girl in a white dress was quietly sitting in the living room using her computer to listen to music. The song she was listening to was very strange, neither light and pleasant pop music nor elegant classical music; it wasn't Chinese, English, Japanese or Korean either. It was a language Fang Yuan had never heard before. The singer was a young woman with an especially sharp voice, as if someone was using all their strength to shout in the empty mountains, the song full of wildness and passion, giving people a strange feeling that made them want to run wildly.

  "Who let you in?" Su Ya asked the girl in white clothes.

  The girl in the white dress didn't mind Su Ya's aggressive questioning, turned off the music with a wave of her hand, and smiled kindly: "Hello. My name is Wu Xiaoqian, I was arranged to live in this dorm by the school logistics department. What's wrong?"

  Fang Yuan only then noticed that Wu Xiaoqian's appearance was exceptionally pure, but her complexion was somewhat pale and her body too weak, making her seem overly frail, reminiscent of Lin Daiyu from "Dream of the Red Chamber".

  "Logistics department?" Su Ya said with a scowl, "Those good-for-nothing idiots can actually do it! Wu Xiaoxian, I'm telling you, this dormitory is not clean, many people have died here. Don't believe me? Go ask around outside, 441 dormitory is a notorious death trap, a place of misfortune and doom, beware of strangers! I think your body is so weak, it's better to change to another dormitory."

  In order to get Wu Xiaoqian to move out, Su Yake used both soft and hard tactics. However, Wu Qian didn't fall for it at all.

  "You're Su Ya, right! I've wanted to meet you for a long time. I heard that your writing is quite good, and apart from romance novels, you've even written horror and suspense stories." Wu Xiaoqian suddenly flashed a sly smile, "I also love reading horror and suspense novels, unfortunately, I don't know how to write them. One day, I'll tell you my story, and if you write it, it's sure to be a bestseller."

  Su Ya was stunned. Although she knew that many girls nowadays like to watch horror and suspense, she didn't expect Wu Xiaoqian to be one of them. From what she said, it seemed that not only did Wu Xiaoqian enjoy watching, but also had some experience in this area.

  "Besides, I really like this dormitory. So, I won't move out. Unless..." Wu Xiaoqian deliberately paused at this point.

  "What unless?"

  "Unless I'm dead, no one can force me to do something I don't want to do." Wu Xiaoqian said with a smile.

  Su Ya looked at Wu Xiaoqian's smile, which seemed so pure and innocent that it didn't seem to have any ulterior motives, a strange feeling gradually spread.

  This strange feeling, was actually... actually fear! For some reason, Su Ya, who had never been afraid of anything, was actually a little afraid of the delicate girl in front of her called Wu Xiaoqian. Her body seemed to be emitting some kind of mysterious aura that no one knew about, and the closer she got, the stronger this aura became.

  Wu Xiaoqian didn't respond to Su Ya, but instead shifted her gaze to Fang Yuan, scrutinizing her carefully, seemingly surprised: "You're Fang Yuan! You've also returned!"

  Fang Yuan's heart slightly stirred, Wu Xiaoqian's tone was somewhat strange. Fang Yuan and she had never met before, why was she so excited? Could it be that she had been waiting for Fang Yuan all along?

  Grandpa Qin's words echoed in his ears again: "After you return to Nanjiang City, many strange people will appear around you. Like the Purple Butterfly, they will try every means to control you."

  Recalling the nightmare of the Sea God Island expedition, Fang Yuan felt a lingering fear. She had finally waited for Uncle Quan's yacht to take her back to the coastal town, but was detained there as a suspect for over a month. Although she had already told the police everything that happened on Sea God Island, not many people believed her. In the end, because the local government still wanted to develop Sea God Island and didn't want the incident's impact to spread, Fang Yuan barely managed to return home.

  "Huh, you're back?"

  A younger girl walked out of the bedroom, wearing a colorful outfit, with curly hair all over her head, silver earrings bigger than her ears, and extremely large eyes, just like the characters in cartoons.

  "Fang Yuan, Su Ya, my name is Ling Yan Yu, you can call me Yu Er, I'm very happy to be roommates with you." Ling Yan Yu walked over with a big smile, wanting to shake hands with them.

  Fang Wei lightly touched her palm and then withdrew it. Su Ya, on the other hand, didn't even look at her, cold as ice, turned around and walked into the bedroom. She probably went to check her bed and belongings.

  Su Ya has a cleanliness obsession and never likes others to borrow her things. Whether it's bedding, washbasin, water cup, toothbrush, etc., as long as it's hers, absolutely no one can use it, not even touch it.

  Ling Yan Yu stuck out her tongue at Su Ya's back, made a face, and jumped to Fang Yuan's side like a happy little bird. She tiptoed and wrapped her arms around Fang Yuan's shoulders, saying: "You're still the best. That Su Ya has such a bad temper! Hmph, don't blame me next time..."

  Ling Yan Yu's appearance was particularly quirky and mischievous, one look and you could tell she belonged to that kind of playful and naughty little girl personality. She reminded Fang Yuan of Tao Bing Er, that poor girl who lacked family warmth and always tried to get people's attention everywhere she went.

  Fang Yuan was afraid that Su Ya would quarrel with others, so she hastily followed her into the bedroom. No matter what, since they could live together, it was fate, and she didn't want their dormitory to become a battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke.

  As expected, apart from Wu Xiaoxian and Ling Yuyan, there was another girl living in the bedroom. Wearing a casual black suit, her face was like a peach blossom, white with a hint of red, particularly lively. Her eyebrows were very dark, so dark they shone, extremely glossy, slightly furrowed together. Her eyes seemed to be veiled by a thin layer of gauze, looking very melancholic and sorrowful.

  She was reading Nietzsche's poetry collection, softly reciting: "Leaves fall from the trees, eventually swept away by autumn winds. Life and its beautiful dreams, ultimately turn to dust! Can I believe that I will lie in a grave, unable to savor life's fragrance? When the bell tolls, I secretly ponder: we are all rolling towards our eternal hometown."

  Su Ya was also infatuated with Nietzsche's philosophy. Before, she never thought that Nietzsche's love would be so heart-wrenching, and he could not spend his life with the one he loved. "Are you going to a woman? Don't forget to bring your whip!" Many people know this is Nietzsche's famous quote, but how many people know that Salome, a Russian girl, became an eternal pain in Nietzsche's life, making him live under the shadow of the whip forever.

  Things in the world often go like this, with all sorts of paradoxes. People who are good at swimming may drown in water, love experts may commit suicide because of a broken heart, and those who judge others are often the ones who have committed crimes...

  A girl who can read Nietzsche's poetry collection, her quality and taste won't be low. Thinking of this, Su Ya suppressed the anger in her heart, lowered her head to check her bed and daily necessities.

  It's okay, there are no signs of anyone touching it. Actually, she was going to take them all away for washing anyway.

  After a brief introduction, Fang Yuan learned that the girl's name was Qin Xue Man.

  "You can call me Xue Er." Although she had left the poetry book, Qin Xue Man's face was still filled with worry. It seemed that she was a sentimental girl.

  "You can call me Xiao Qian or Qian Qian, but whatever you do, don't call me Qian Er." Wu Xiao Qian slipped in quietly.

  Fang Yuan asked strangely: "Why can't we call her Qian'er?"

  "Because, Qian Er is my sister's name." Wu Xiao Qian showed that sly smile again. "My sister hates it when people call her for no reason. She has a bad temper and gets angry easily, to the point where she won't even acknowledge me. So, please remember, don't get my name wrong."

  Fang Yuan finally discovered that this girl named Wu Xiaoqian was exuding an aura of evil.

  "Hello!" At this time, another girl walked into the dormitory, and the originally spacious 8-person dormitory began to feel crowded.

  "My name is Liu Xueyi, from now on I will formally become roommates with everyone, and please take care of me!"

  The name sounds good and the voice is very gentle, but the appearance is ordinary, with rough skin, belonging to the kind that can be thrown onto the street without a second glance from boys.

  Wu Xiaoqian, Ling Yuyue, Qin Xueman, Liu Xueyi. The originally quiet and peaceful girls' dormitory 441 suddenly had four new female students move in. Fang Yuan's head started to ache, she only hoped that all the girls in the dorm could live together peacefully, study and live together until graduation without any trouble.

  But would things be so simple? Fang Yuan's heart was secretly uneasy.
