The ssage was sent successfully, and she held her phone with both hands, feeling nervous and apprehensive.
She regretted sending that text a bit, but regret was already too late.
Distracted, she finished off a piece of toast and drank up the milk. Ji Chicheng hadn’t replied to her ssage yet.
She packed up her stuff to prepare for class and glanced at her phone once more, but the screen was still completely silent.
Forget about it, don’t think too much, things will work out when it cos to it.
Ji Anning shook her head, briefly casting aside her worries, and left the dormitory.
"Ji student."
Just as Ji Anning had locked her door, soone from next door suddenly called her. The voice was sowhat familiar; she looked over.
It was Jin Yuanyuan, the Floor Monitor who had inford her about the dormitory’s hygiene competition yesterday. She wore a black hoodie and skinny jeans, looking slimr than in her pajamas from the day before and seemingly taller, too.
After quickly giving Jin Yuanyuan a once-over, she smiled faintly and nodded, "Hello."
"You’re off to class, right?" Jin Yuanyuan said, eyeing the textbooks Ji Anning was holding and stepped towards her with a smile. "I’m heading to class, too. Let’s go together."
Faced with Jin Yuanyuan’s sudden warmth, Ji Anning instinctively felt a bit wary.
Because of Ji Xiangting and Ji Ruoqian, the sisters had been ostracized by everyone except Danning since childhood; no one ever played with her.
There were many classmates she hadn’t even greeted to this day.
The sudden warmth from soone wanting to get close to her could be called guardedness or simply unfamiliarity.
After a pause, she finally nodded, "Okay."
Then she held her textbooks close and walked ahead with her head slightly lowered.
"Why are you staying in the dormitory?"
Jin Yuanyuan followed behind Ji Anning, asking as they walked.
In fact, not just her, but everyone at school who paid attention to Ji Chicheng and the Ji Family were curious.
Every evening, a driver would pick up Ji Xiangting to take her ho to their luxury house with a maid attending to them, enviable living standards that many couldn’t obtain, yet she chose to stay in the small and old dormitories at school.
But Ji Anning was still taken aback by Jin Yuanyuan’s direct questioning. She affird in her heart that this was a straightforward girl, and her plump, baby face didn’t seem shrewd at all.
Her guard gradually lowered, and she replied with a smile, "I have late self-study in the evening, and it’s too tiring, so I don’t want to go ho."
This reason had been solid enough to fend off her sharp grandfather without raising suspicion.
Jin Yuanyuan was no exception, she nodded understandingly, "I think so, too. Staying at school is more convenient."
Then, pointing to her own dorm, she warmly said to Ji Anning, "I live just next to you, co and hang out with when you’re free."
"Hmm," Ji Anning nodded, keeping a slight smile at the corner of her mouth.
The two chatted as they went downstairs.
Ji Anning was increasingly finding that Jin Yuanyuan was quite lively, popping up with a joke from ti to ti that made Ji Anning unable to help but smirk.
"Yo, Jin Yuanyuan, you’re getting scheming now, huh?"
As the two approached the corner of the teaching building, two fashionably dressed girls ca toward them, eyeing Jin Yuanyuan with sarcasm from afar.
As they walked closer, they looked at Ji Anning with disdain in their eyes and a scornful smile on their face.
Ji Anning watched the two girls as they approached, completely indifferent to their attitude towards her.
She thought this was normal.
With Ji Xiangting and Ji Ruoqian around, how could she possibly have good days ahead?
