Chapter 294: Chapter 287: Not Fragrant Anymore
“Really?” Ting Yuan ran over to her, lifting Tang Yuxin’s sleeve to take a sniff, “It does sll good, a cool kind of fragrance.” It was the first ti Ting Yuan had t a girl who had a fragrant scent about her.
Tang Yuxin gently rubbed her forehead, feeling as if she had gained yet another goofy roommate. She gazed at the small window behind her, the youthful vigor outside all sohow catalyzed within the confines of this school.
The three girls were all similar in height, only Ting Yuan was slightly chubby. There was no pressure standing together, so they quickly ford a bond. Ting Yuan and Tang Yuxin both hailed from the countryside, and Lin Yile harbored no prejudice against those from rural areas. They soon beca good friends. Ting Yuan was studying internal dicine, Tang Yuxin was studying clinical dicine, and Lin Yile, nursing.
Ting Yuan’s parents set up her bed and left, as they needed to catch the train back ho. The pair found comfort in the fact that their daughter’s roommates seed amiable and left at ease.
The three girls cleaned up the dorm before deciding to go out for a al.
By the ti they returned, another roommate had arrived. With all lower bunks occupied, she took the upper one. She was a tall girl with long hair, pretty and spirited, but she seed a bit aloof.
The girl with long hair tied up her hair with a hairband and glanced at the other three, “What did you guys eat? Why didn’t you wait for ?”
Ting Yuan blinked, and Lin Yile had a similar reaction, while Tang Yuxin lowered her head to stare at her own fingertips. This way of greeting was certainly unusual but maybe it was down to her cold deanor. Turns out, she was a high-spirited woman.
The long-haired girl was called Song Qingtong, with a heroic look and a heroic na, akin to Huo Qingtong from the novel “The Book and The Sword.” Perhaps her father nad her after reading that book?
Song Qingtong was also studying nursing, just like Lin Yile, and they were both in the sa departnt. Laughter rang out between them as they revealed their backgrounds to one another.
Song Qingtong walked over and stood before Tang Yuxin.
“Let sll you.”
Tang Yuxin turned around, telling herself to endure it. Tomorrow she would take a pill to mask her scent. She wasn’t a perfu, why did everyone want to take a whiff?
Song Qingtong leaned in next to Tang Yuxin for a more detailed sniff. She had initially thought that soone had sprayed perfu in the dorm, but had recently co to realize the fragrance ca from Tang Yuxin.
Only in books had she read about won having such a peculiar scent.
“How do you sll so good?”
Song Qingtong suddenly sat, sowhat crudely, on Tang Yuxin’s pillow, causing Tang Yuxin’s eyes to twitch.
It was okay, she would endure this, too.
“I’ve had this scent since I was young,” she gave an ambiguous answer.
“Is it natural?” Song Qingtong beca even more curious, she’d almost dissect Tang Yuxin on the spot if she could, just to figure out the source of the scent.
Vaguely, Tang Yuxin replied, avoiding Song Qingtong’s piercing gaze. She feigned adjusting her blanket. She now truly regretted not taking a whitening pill instead of a fragrant one sooner, the constant fragrance was starting to annoy her.
What was the use of it anyway, just to freshen up her surroundings?
Song Qingtong soon lost interest in Tang Yuxin, and began to chat with Lin Yile. They discussed their past and future, vowing to beco excellent nurses and serve the people wholeheartedly.
The nursing program at Qing University was no ordinary program. Nurses who graduated from here were top-notch, so not just any hospital could afford them. Most typically worked in important hospitals such as military hospitals. Therefore, apart from academic excellence, appearance was also a requirent for studying nursing here.
For the sake of others and for the pleasing aesthetics.
Now there were already four people in the dorm. They wondered if and when the remaining two would arrive. On this first night at university, they were all excited and no one else showed up. Still, they chatted till late into the night.
Being able to gain admission to Qing University, each of them was undoubtedly exceptional. They were outstanding students in their local schools, except Tang Yuyu, whose grades were exceedingly high.
“So, you were the top perforr in the college entrance exam in your province?” Ting Yuan’s eyes sparkled. She looked as if she wanted to take a bite of Tang Yuxin, to see if she was real. Does her at sll as good as she does?
Tang Yuxin filled her mouth with sunflower seeds, cracking one after another, “You’re pretty impressive too.” She raised her eyelids, “You got the top score in your school and had your tuition waived.”
“Hehe….” Ting Yuan scratched her head shyly, “My school paid my tuition fees, and the town also offered a generous scholarship because I had the best score. Once I graduate, I’ll definitely go back to serve my hotown.”
Tang Yuxin simply smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
All promises in this world can not stand against change.
All promises are no match for reality.
All promises succumb to the wear and tear of ti.
In the end, how many people can resist worldly desires and maintain their original intent?
That first night, they chatted late into the night. After only one day, they were already becoming good friends. Tang Yuxin lay down, pulling her quilt over her face, unable to sleep despite her attempts.
Maybe it was just the unfamiliar surroundings making her restless?
The dorm was tranquil apart from the occasional soft snoring. Everyone must be exhausted from traveling all the way from ho.
She sat up, fetched a small porcelain bottle from under her pillow, opened it, and took a pill from it. She swallowed the pill and lay back down attempting to fall asleep.
When morning ca, everyone had gotten a good night’s sleep. Although the beds were a bit small, making it hard to turn around, Lin Yile was the first to rise.
Ting Yuan and Song Qingtong didn’t seem to share her thoughts. They had both been boarding students in high school, so they were used to it.
“Huh, why don’t you sll good anymore?”
