Following his memory, Tang Qing arrived at his dormitory building. After completing the check-in procedures at the entrance on the first floor and receiving his keys, he ascended the stairs. His dorm was on the third floor - dorm 310.
As he approached, Tang Qing noticed that the door was open. It seemed someone had arrived before him.
Once he stepped in.
Oh boy.
About a dozen people were bustling about the dorm. Three of the beds were already occupied. Besides the three peers, the rest were undoubtedly their parents. Bags big and small were piled up on the beds and floor. It seemed they had all just arrived.
Upon seeing the last roommate arrive, everyone brightened up. Oh boy, this young guy was really freaking handsome.
A slightly plump peer walked up, smiling, "Hey, are you also a resident of this dorm?"
"Yes, 310, I didn’t make any mistake. Nice to meet you, my name is Tang Qing, Tang from the Tang Dynasty, Qing as in green grass." Tang Qing nodded and smiled back. Compared to the other two somewhat shy roommates, this guy was more outgoing. Judging by his clothes, his family should be quite well-off.
Seeing that Tang Qing only brought a bundle of bedding and a suitcase, Zhong Liang smillingly remarked, "Nice to meet you, I’m Zhong Liang. This is Li Mo, and that’s Ding Xiangming. You brought so few things. Didn’t your parents come with you?"
Zhong Liang, from his quick glance at Tang Qing’s clothes, could tell that they didn’t come from an average family. Immediately, he noticed the emblem of Sheng Tang’s custom clothing on Tang Qing’s clothes. It was definitely not cheap.
"Yes, they are pretty busy and didn’t have time to come. Besides, I probably won’t live here much in the future, so I didn’t bring much." Tang Qing replied. He then placed the bedding on his own bed near the door. One parent hurriedly removed the items that were placed on the top bunk.
"Are you going to live off-campus? Is your home nearby?" Zhong Liang asked in surprise. He was a local from Shanghai, and even his home wasn’t that far, but he didn’t choose to move out.
"I am not from Shanghai. It’s because of my girlfriend." Tang Qing, while making his bed, emphasized.
Zhong Liang: "..."
We’ve only just started university, and you already have a girlfriend and are planning to live off-campus. This was kind of a blow to him. Zhong Liang felt he had been internally injured and needed to eat something good to soothe it.
"Ah haha, nice. Here, let me help you," Zhong Liang said, forcing a smile embarrassingly.
"No need. It’s just a few sheets. Just spread them out."
As Tang Qing said so, he managed to set up everything within a minute. He then put the few sets of clothes from his suitcase into the cabinet and placed the two pairs of shoes he had brought along and his toiletries.
"Tang, how about we have lunch together later? You guys are so destined to be together. You’ll be classmates for the next four years. Let’s all get to know each other better," Zhong Liang’s father, Zhong Yang, kindly invited.
Zhong Yang was a slightly overweight middle-aged man dressed casually, along with Zhong Liang’s mother who was decked out in glitz and glamour. Their family should be quite wealthy.
Zhong Yang ran several car dealerships in Shanghai. He had seen many prominent figures and second-generation rich people. Seeing Tang Qing, he detected a faint scent of power. It seemed very faint, yet it felt overwhelming. He couldn’t quite figure out, so he intended to seize this opportunity to get to know him better.
"Uh, my girlfriend is still waiting for me," Tang Qing said awkwardly. It’s rare to dine with parents of friends. Even though roommates are important, they don’t top his own sweetheart.
Zhong Yang nonchalantly replied, "No problem. We’ll invite her as well. Only a few more chopsticks, I’m offering to treat."
"Alright then," Tang Qing could only take this opportunity to have a free meal and would have to treat Miao Ru another time.
"Haha, I know this area well. I’ll make a reservation now, and we’ll go in a bit. It’s not far away." After saying it, Zhong Yang quickly called in to book a large private room, also ordering their special dishes.
It indeed felt like a bit of a show-off, but Tang Qing just shrugged and shook his head. He didn’t think Zhong Yang was trying to flaunt. Maybe that was just his usual lifestyle.
After sitting in the dorm for a while, Tang Qing set out to find Lin Jiaxue. He agreed to meet Zhong Yang at the school’s main gate.
He called Lin Jiaxue and explained the situation.
When he arrived at the girls’ dormitory, Lin Jiaxue and Miao Ru were already waiting downstairs. Standing together, they both appeared as sisters. Although Miao Ru was quite pretty, she couldn’t conceal her age of twenty-seven or twenty-eight.
"Sister Miao, I guess the feast will have to wait for the evening," Tang Qing said playfully.
Miao Ru gave him a sideways glance, muttering, "We are supposed to have a class meeting tonight. We won’t be able to fully enjoy the meal. Perhaps, next time. I need to carefully choose the best time to hit you hard. You better not hold back when the time comes."
Tang Qing couldn’t help but chuckle. Miao Ru was just like a child with her unique thoughts. He promised wholeheartedly, "Alright, it’s up to you to choose the place. I’m not afraid of going broke from eating."
His tone full of arrogance.
"Show off. Let’s go," Miao Ru gave him another glance without competing with Tang Qing, the wealthy man.
As she said so, Miao Ru took Lin Jiaxue’s hand and walked ahead. Tang Qing, not willing to be outdone, held Lin Jiaxue’s other hand. Thus, a peculiar trio was seen walking hand-in-hand across the school.
When they gathered at the gate, they introduced each other again. Looking at Tang Qing, Zhong Yang’s gaze became more peculiar. A gentle and beautiful girlfriend and a university tutor didn’t seem like ordinary people.
The place where they planned to dine was not far away, a ten-minute walk. Therefore, they didn’t take a car.
