Chapter 1450: Chapter 1450

"We’re all classmates here, understanding is key."

Liu Junmei clasped her hands together, looking at Li Xiaoli and Liu Mengting: "Also, having the top bunk isn’t necessarily a good thing."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoli and Liu Mengting finally remembered that Liu Junmei was known for having a Curse, and anyone sleeping in the bunk below her would probably be in for some drama.

"What’s your name? We’re all classmates now, no need to make things awkward."

Liu Junmei obediently picked up the girl’s money and warmly asked her.

Ma Jiaran snorted, directed the two upperclassmen who were watching to place the mattress on the top bunk, and then began organizing her things.

Li Xiaoli snorted, "Meng Meng, collect the money and cards, okay?"

Liu Mengting nodded with a smile and said, "Once the last classmate arrives, let’s go out and grab a bite together. It’s a good chance to get to know each other."

"Wu Xiaoxia, is that okay with you?"

Li Xiaoli asked Wu Xiaoxia uncertainly.

Wu Xiaoxia smiled faintly, then put on her headphones and closed her eyes to listen to music.

"I have no objections either. I was just a bit impulsive earlier, sorry."

Ma Jiaran muttered nonchalantly as she continued moving things to the top bunk.

"We forgive you, but whether the heavens will is another story."

Li Xiaoli looked playfully at Ma Jiaran.

Ma Jiaran snorted, climbed the ladder to the top bunk, and then...

Suddenly, her foot slipped, and Ma Jiaran tumbled from the ladder, landing sprawled on the floor.

Ma Jiaran, once well-groomed, lay on the floor grimacing in pain, feeling utterly miserable.

"How could you be so careless? Little Mei, help her up!"

Li Xiaoli called out sympathetically.

Liu Junmei looked on worriedly, unsure what to do.

"Of course you, you’re the closest."

Liu Mengting also smiled oddly.

Liu Junmei smiled wryly and reached out to help Ma Jiaran up: "Are you okay?"

"Damn it, how did I suddenly slip, that was painful."

Ma Jiaran stood up while leaning on a table, puzzled as she felt the ladder without finding anything wrong. How did she just slip out of nowhere?

"Why don’t I sleep on the top bunk instead?"

Liu Junmei kindly suggested.

"No way, I don’t want to sleep below, it’s dirty and messy."

Ma Jiaran coldly snorted, brushed off Liu Junmei, and cautiously climbed the ladder again, wary of slipping.

Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli kept their eyes glued to Ma Jiaran, curious to see what other amusing incidents might occur with her.

"Just be careful then."

Liu Junmei shrugged, ignoring Ma Jiaran, and continued tidying her own bed.

"The top bunk is still the best, it’s clean and bright."

Once safely on the bunk, Ma Jiaran was instantly delighted.

At that moment, the light tube located on the ceiling of the dorm suddenly fell, pulled by the wires, and happened to fall towards Ma Jiaran.

Ma Jiaran screamed and raised her hands to block.

The fragile tube broke upon impact with Ma Jiaran, shattering glass all over her bed.

"Holy cow, can this be real?"

Li Xiaoli glanced at Liu Mengting, both dumbfounded, who could anticipate such an accident?

"What kind of shabby dorm is this? The light tubes can actually break like that. I’m going to report this."

Ma Jiaran shouted furiously.

"I told you not to go up there, you insisted. Don’t blame me for this."

Liu Junmei glanced a few times, then disregardfully continued with her things.

Enraged yet unable to vent, Ma Jiaran could only quietly clean up the glass, angrily arranging her bed.

Soon, the dorm staff arrived to fix the light tube.

After the staff finished and left the dorm, hurried footsteps sounded outside, and the door was pushed open. Two women in fur coats entered, one a young girl, the other a middle-aged lady.

Behind them, seven or eight burly men in suits followed, some carrying suitcases, others carrying mattresses...

"Oh dear, is this a place for people to live? It’s too small."

The middle-aged woman covered her nose, looking around the dorm with disdain: "It’s practically a pigsty. Even the servants’ quarters at our house are ten times better."

"What kind of talk is that?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoli was displeased. If this place is a pigsty, then what does that make them?

"Mom, could you stop talking like that? The school isn’t like home, I’m here to study, not to enjoy myself. Please just leave."

The young, beautiful girl urged impatiently.

"Alright, alright, my mistake. Now that my precious will be staying here for a while, I won’t call it a pigsty."

The woman quickly apologized and waved to her men: "Quickly, get my miss’s things settled."

"Madam, which bed will Miss sleep on?"

One of the men in black placed a suitcase by the door and asked, unsure.

"Sweetheart, which bed do you want?"

The woman eagerly turned to ask the girl.

"I wanted the top bunk, but it seems we’re too late."

The girl slightly frowned, pointing at the last remaining bed, "So maybe here?"

"Hold on, it’s bad enough we have to stay in a place , you can’t sleep in just any bed."

The woman quickly waved her hand, looked around the room, and smiled at everyone: "Hello to you all! I’m Mu Zixin’s mother. Now that my Xinxin will be your classmate, please take care of her."

Mu Zixin greeted Liu Mengting and the others gracefully.

"Let’s see, this is our first meeting, and I haven’t prepared any special gifts."

The woman took several cards from her staff, placing one on each bed: "You’re just starting the semester, you’ll need lots of things. Each of you gets a 5,000 yuan shopping card, buy whatever you like."

"Auntie, this gift is too generous, we can’t accept it."

Liu Mengting quickly declined.

"It’s not too much, this supermarket belongs to my family. You’re Xinxin’s roommates, living together for the next four years. Just help take care of Xinxin for me, and I’ll be grateful."

The woman cheerfully addressed the girls.

"You might as well accept it, we have plenty of these cards, they’re not that valuable."

Mu Zixin quickly added.

"See, now this is a true wealthy beauty, isn’t it?"

Li Xiaoli shot a peculiar look at Ma Jiaran.

Liu Mengting said no more; 5,000 yuan wasn’t much to her, something she could easily replenish.

Liu Junmei anxiously held the shopping card. Five thousand yuan was a semester’s living expenses for her. It felt burning hot in her hand, but since Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli accepted, she wasn’t sure what to do.
