Chapter 295: Different

Chapter 295

On the way back to the dormitory, Honey clung admiringly to her roommate's arm and said, "Xiao Qi, you were so cool just now. Every time I see Li Weijin, I'm actually quite nervous. I feel like he only needs to open his mouth and no one can refuse him. I didn't expect you to not only refuse him but also buy him water. Seeing him holding the water with a bewildered look on his face was truly shocking."

Wei Cheng also laughed and said, "I thought His Highness didn't drink water given by others and only drank water from special brands."

Yunshu, who had bought the most fruit, wanted to transfer money to Xiao Qi for things like dates, but Xiao Qi shook her head and refused.

"I have new bonus money recently. Let's go eat beef rice in town another day."

When it came to the beef rice in town, everyone's attention was immediately shifted as they started salivating at the thought of it.

That meal was so delicious with the soft and sticky rice.

The beef had absorbed the braising liquid and went perfectly with the rice.

Yunshu didn't insist. She usually bought fruit back to the dormitory for her roommates to share as well. The flowers were placed next to the fruit. Sometimes she just liked to buy things without necessarily liking everything herself. In any case, she let everyone eat together. Everyone was relatively casual about eating.

Honey had new clothes sent from home. Xiao Qi also often bought a lot of things back to the dormitory and treated others frequently. Wei Cheng was the one who took the initiative to do the most chores in the dormitory, like cleaning the desks. Everyone tacitly let her do it.

Back at the dormitory, Xiao Qi tidied up her desk and started practicing calligraphy as usual. She had a very regular schedule that she followed resolutely.

There were two stacks of calligraphy and painting drafts on her desk, with uneven thicknesses.

There were more calligraphy drafts because she could easily get into the zone anytime to practice. There were fewer painting drafts because coloring and other steps were more troublesome. Xiao Qi was still at the sketching stage for paintings.

Xiao Qi saw that her current calligraphy level was professional+, while her painting level had also improved from beginner to beginner+. She really liked this mechanism where effort led to corresponding improvement. It was the greatest fairness in the world.

So now whenever she did anything, she worked very hard and did not waste time.

After practicing calligraphy for half an hour and basically calming down, she changed her clothes and went downstairs to go jogging.

The weather was a bit cool. Xiao Qi wore black athletic pants and long sleeves, all very fitting. Together with her running shoes, she looked like a female warrior when she went out.

When she came back, she lay on the bed while Honey started chatting on her phone again after self-study. She first explained that her roommate had confiscated her phone earlier to make her do accounting homework, so she did not chat anymore.

Honey did not know why she had to explain. She just saw the other party only send an emoji, leaving her feeling empty. Unexpectedly, the other party immediately replied.

Su Li was fully equipped for jogging with her phone strapped to her arm, latest running shoes on her feet, and bright yellow workout clothes, very eye-catching.

But when she managed to catch up to jog alongside Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi realized that Su Li was quite short. She seriously suspected that Su Li normally wore shoes with internal lifts. Really. Jogging side by side, Xiao Qi found that Su Li was actually shorter than her by a bit. She had to lower her head to look at Su Li.

In normal times, Su Li's aura was like she was 1.88 meters tall so Xiao Qi had not noticed her height issue at all.

Su Li also discovered... There was no lift in running shoes. She was surprised to find that Xiao Qi was quite tall.

She was fully armed, spending several thousand to buy this entire jogging outfit from head to toe.

Yet she saw Xiao Qi just wearing the most ordinary Nike pants and top, basic style, but it looked no worse than her outfit at all, very stylish and full of temperament.

Su Li greeted her and wanted to speak but saw that Xiao Qi continued running with earphones, fortunately not fast. Su Li still managed to ask, "Are you listening to music? What are you listening to? Can I listen together?"

Xiao Qi shook her head and took out an earphone to hand to Su Li. Su Li heard all kinds of Korean inside...

She had gone to Korea before...to shop.

In Xiao Qi’s dream, she rarely had impressions of this classmate. They were two non-intersecting parallel lines.

If she thought hard about it, it seemed like Su Li had studied abroad?

Curiously Xiao Qi asked, "Are you planning to study abroad?"

Su Li thought to herself that there was no way others would think she was going abroad. It must be that little bitch Chuyu with her fake-white-lotus-face spreading rumors all the time.

She quickly shook her head and said, "No! Going abroad is boring. Who told you that? Language barriers abroad, unfamiliar environment. It’s fine to go for travel but going abroad to study is not as good as domestic universities. Besides, our classmates are also very interesting."

Xiao Qi: ......

Are you sure our classmates are interesting? She remembered the system gave an evaluation that they were idlers just eating, waiting to die.

Xiao Qi continued running without talking much more to Su Li. However, she felt that she was overreacting to that dream and being overly concerned about it. In fact, many things had already changed—she had changed, people around her were also changing. The world was not unchanging. If everything was predetermined, then no one needed to strive and there would be no meaning to existence.

After finishing 30,000 steps of running, she saw Su Li still jogging and couldn't help sighing with admiration. So even Student Su Li was alive and vigorous, how hardworking!

Su Li was mentally complaining as she ran until she was as tired as a dog... She would never go for a run again in hopes of a chance encounter. Xiao Qi was truly a weirdo to not be tired from running... Thinking back to her record-breaking marathon, sigh, it was herself who was the idiot...
