She thought of it, but the problem was that this move wasn't very useful for her.
However, seeing how Li Shiqi couldn't stop thinking about that two hundred yuan, Zhou Yuwen wasn't stingy either, promising an additional two hundred yuan reward for Li Shiqi and, furthermore, if Li Shiqi really could bring in thirty people to sign up tomorrow, Zhou Yuwen would give her another two hundred yuan.
It was Li Shiqi's first ti earning money, and she was certainly very happy, not expecting Zhou Yuwen to be so generous.
Their first chat was very pleasant, and when Li Shiqi returned from taking a call outside the dormitory, the smile never left her face. Her newly t roommates saw this and exchanged knowing glances without saying a word.
"Who were you on the phone with? You seem so happy?"
"Boyfriend, maybe?"
"No, a high school classmate."
"High school classmate? Hey, is it a guy or a girl?"
Li Shiqi hadn't even thought about these things while chatting with Zhou Yuwen, despite being high school classmates for three years, this was probably the first ti the two had communicated alone for so long.
And this, her college roommates certainly didn't know. The college roommates thought, you're chatting so happily with a boy on the first day of school, and he's a high school classmate, that must an there's mutual affection!
Li Shiqi quickly explained, saying there was nothing like that, he and I are just ordinary high school classmates.
Really very ordinary.
However, Li Shiqi's explanation was unconvincing, and everyone understood, jokingly saying, co on, it's not high school anymore. It's normal to have a boyfriend!
"Exactly! It's like everyone has soone or other!"
"Oh, so you have soone too?"
"What about you? Don't you have soone?"
During high school, Li Shiqi was completely focused on studying and didn't think about these matters at all. Hardly anyone around her talked about relationship issues, but after starting college, the first night's dorm chat seed to start similarly with discussions on relationships between n and won.
One of Li Shiqi's roommates had a boyfriend and was very open about their good relationship, while another roommate said although she didn't have a boyfriend, their relationship was more than friendship but short of romance!
Later Li Shiqi found out that, seemingly, she was the only one in her dorm who hadn't had a friend of the opposite sex from childhood to adulthood.
Li Shiqi even asked in surprise, "How co you all had ti for dating in high school, didn't you have to study?"
This question seed to irritate her roommates, "Shiqi, what do you an by that? Are you saying that we were only dating? Don't tell you didn't have any?"
"Exactly, who was that on the phone with you just now?"
"That was a high school classmate!"
"We're high school classmates too!"
On reflection, it was true. Li Shiqi was just too naive, but the other girls in the dorm declared they already saw through it, they've all dealt with high school classmates before.
"Let tell you, Shiqi, if you really like that high school classmate of yours, you have to act fast. These boys get very fickle in college."
"I, I really don't have anything with him."
"Sigh, chatting like this is no fun!"
"Right!"
One evening, the other three girls all talked about their romantic issues, and at that mont, Li Shiqi found she had nothing to contribute.
Her own romantic interests?
Li Shiqi thought for a long ti and could only co up with "An Account of My Hut," "The Record of the Thatched Hut's Disrepair," Yueyang Tower Records, Preface to the Prince Teng's Pavilion, and on and on, then thought of quadratic linear equations, geotric sequences, arithtic sequences.
Alright, there truly wasn't a single notable boy in Li Shiqi's mind.
After the lights were out in the dorm, Li Shiqi lay in bed looking at the ceiling and, after a long ti, the image of a boy slowly appeared in her mind.
Zhou Yuwen, what kind of boy was he?
In the past, Li Shiqi had never thought about this question.
But after interacting with him, Li Shiqi beca curious about Zhou Yuwen, because he seed very capable. While everyone else was still clueless, he had already started making money by dealing cards.
Plus, in their phone conversation just now, he spoke and handled things very efficiently and didn't seem like a high school student at all.
But Li Shiqi and Zhou Yuwen had been in the sa class for three years in high school.
Why had she never noticed before?
What did Zhou Yuwen look like again?
Well, Li Shiqi actually found it sowhat hard to recall, after all, it had been two months since they last t, so she only had a vague idea.
Her dorm mates were chatting about the topic of dating.
Talking about giving small gifts first, then asking soone out for a al, watching a movie, taking a walk.
Li Shiqi was wondering if she should date in college.
But then she imdiately shook her head and dismissed the idea.
Li Shiqi quietly reminded herself that she was different from others; she must study hard to get her college diploma, then find a good job. That was the real liberation!
As for love and dating,
That wasn't for her!
Having figured everything out, Li Shiqi closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.
Zhou Yuwen, on the other hand, still had a pile of things to deal with. After returning to his dorm, he had to compile a list of all the card applications from today, including the list Li Shiqi had just given him.
However, the list from Li Shiqi was really scattered, with thirty people spread across nine universities, half of them at vocational colleges, and the farthest one was three kiloters away.
He felt that they might not specially co over.
But the stats still had to be compiled.
When Zhou Yuwen went out to take Li Shiqi's call, Chang Hao and Li Qiang looked on enviously.
As soon as Zhou Yuwen ca back in, Chang Hao and Li Qiang imdiately surrounded him asking, "Old Zhou, who was that on the phone with you?"
"Nobody, just a high school classmate," Zhou Yuwen said.
"Yo, how co my high school classmates don't call ?"
"Maybe it's because you're not as handso as ,"
"Dammit!"
Zhou Yuwen had no interest in bickering with them and took out his notebook to start compiling the list. In the process, he still received quite a few ssages.
It was at this ti that Zhou Yuwen finally realized it was ti to set his phone to silent mode.
But Chang Hao caught a glimpse of a ssage from Liu Yue to Zhou Yuwen.
Liu Yue liked to visit different dorms in the girls' dormitory and had already rounded up two potential clients for Zhou Yuwen, proudly claiming her credit in the ssages.
"Two clients, does that an I'll get a sixty yuan commission (yay)"
Zhou Yuwen glanced at the ssage and replied that it was true.
Liu Yue ntioned that she had just gone to the neighboring class's dormitory to ask if anyone wanted to apply for cards.
Unexpectedly, she actually found two.
"I was so embarrassed when I went in just now! (covers face)"
Zhou Yuwen replied: "Keep it up! (encouraging)"
Seeing the ssage from Zhou Yuwen, Liu Yue was especially happy, bragging to the other girls in the dorm, "Hey! Yaoyao, I told Zhou Yuwen I got him two clients, and he told to keep it up!"
Liu Yue was chatting with Zhou Yuwen on her phone in bed, her face filled with glee.
"Are you still chatting with Zhou Yuwen?" Li Jing asked curiously.
"Yeah! I noticed that Zhou Yuwen seems a bit of a straight guy who probably doesn't chat much with girls," Liu Yue said with a laugh.
Ma Tian remarked, "Could it be that he just doesn't want to chat with you?"
No sooner had she spoken than they heard a snort of laughter; Li Jing and Gu Yaoyao couldn't help but cover their mouths and giggle.
Liu Yue was annoyed, glaring at Ma Tian crossly.
But Ma Tian just stuck out her tongue and said, "Yue, I'm just joking, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously."
"So annoying!"
Liu Yue couldn't be bothered with Ma Tian; she knew she wasn't as beautiful as Gu Yaoyao, but Liu Yue thought that if you liked soone, you should boldly say it out loud.
If she didn't chat with Zhou Yuwen, she wouldn't have any chance at all.
But who knew, with this chatting, perhaps Zhou Yuwen might really start to feel sothing for her?
