Chapter 121: Insipid Roommate Relationship

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The atmosphere in the dormitory became a little strange after that.

Everyone knew how arrogant the girl who occupied Su Yan’s bed was previously. Before Su Yan arrived, the girl’s mother had said a lot of weird things, which stunned her roommates and parents.

However, Su Yan managed to suppress the mother and daughter’s arrogance with just a few words. It seemed that this Su Yan was not easy to deal with either. It could even be said that she was the number one person not to be provoked in the entire dormitory.

As for that girl, after her mother called her out and said something, when she came back to face Su Yan, the flattery on her face made her roommates feel their teeth ache. Wasn’t she arrogant and despotic just now? Now, she suddenly became a lackey. It was really hard to accept.

Looking at the girl trying her best to please her, Su Yan raised her eyebrows and looked at the name on the girl’s bed.

“Sun Mo.”

“Yes, I’m here,” Sun Mo replied obsequiously. She didn’t think there was anything wrong with her appearance.

Su Yan only said, “You don’t have to please me like that. We can just maintain an insipid roommate relationship.”

These words were meant for Sun Mo and the other young ladies in the dormitory. She did not expect that ever since Sun Mo’s mother changed her attitude towards Su Yan, her roommates and parents would even speak softly and slowly.

All of them were being careful around Su Yan, and it made her feel awkward. So in order to prevent herself from dying of awkwardness, Su Yan felt a need to let these people return to normal.

As she thought about this, Su Yan sighed. She clearly wanted to live a relaxed and happy college life. Who would have thought that things would end up like this? It seemed that life in college would be really easy in the future, but not necessarily happy.

As she was thinking, she suddenly heard someone shouting ‘Su Yan’ from downstairs.

Out of curiosity, Su Yan peeked her head out and saw Shi Yuan, her deskmake, waiting for her downstairs. When he saw her, he even waved at her.

Why did Shi Yuan come over at this time? Su Yan did not understand, but she still went downstairs in confusion.

After a month of tutoring by Su Yan, Shi Yuan’s results could be said to have improved by leaps and bounds. Although he wasn’t as great as Su Yan to be able to attend first tier college, his score had still risen for him to get to second tier college.

The Shi family was very surprised by Shi Yuan’s results. For the entire holiday, Shi Yuan lived the life of a local tyrant. His parents coaxed him, and his grandparents supported him. He almost forgot that school was starting soon.

It was only a few days ago, when his cousin called him and told him to take good care of Su Yan, that Shi Yuan realized that his cousin had given him pointers to apply for a university near Jing City University.

It was a good thing that Shi Yuan had a good impression of Su Yan. He was happy to accept Su Yan as his sister-in-law who was willing to help him improve his grades. That’s why Shi Yuan came to look for Su Yan the moment school started.

The moment Su Yan went downstairs, she saw Shi Yuan carrying two huge plastic bags and smiling foolishly.

“What… are you doing?” Su Yan moved away from him. His smile was too silly, what if she was infected?

Shi Yuan did not mind Su Yan’s distance. Instead, he felt that Su Yan was avoiding suspicion because of her relationship with his cousin. However, Shi Yuan’s small head, which was not very agile, was blind and did not notice that the distance between Su Yan and him had already exceeded the normal social distance.

Shi Yuan placed the two bags beside Su Yan’s feet and said, “Thank you for helping me improve my grades in my senior year, I will take care of your snacks during your university life.” Shi Yuan patted his chest as he spoke.

Su Yan pursed her lips without a trace. Was this child’s brain really abnormal?

However, Shi Yuan’s words warmed Su Yan’s heart. She said, “I don’t like snacks. I’ll take your snacks today. Don’t give them to me next time.”

Shi Yuan, who usually only knew how to play the rebellious fool, understood what Su Yan meant. However, he did not know how to respond. His scratching of his ears and cheeks looked a little comical, but it also matched the behavior of his age.

The white plastic bag was not too thick. Su Yan could see the packaging of some snacks through the plastic bag. They were all foreign brands, specialties from Shi Qing’s country.

Su Yan paused. The doubts that had been lingering in Su Yan’s mind suddenly seemed to have been answered.

Shi Yuan, Shi Qing.

The surname Shi was not a common surname. Shi Yuan and Shi Qing both had the surname Shi. This made Su Yan wonder if they were related.

She even wondered if it’s because Shi Qing was unable to personally take care of Su Yan as he was too far away, that’s why he had pulled out such a simple-minded Shi Yuan from his relatives to take care of her.

While pondering, Su Yan kept staring at Shi Yuan. It had to be said that Su Yan was too imposing, causing Shi Yuan to feel guilty for some reason..
