The Aloof Academic Genius Has Prepared Something Great for the Trip

Dormitory 2-321, Building 2.

Known across campus as the "Goddess Dorm," the atmosphere tonight was livelier than usual.

After all, tomorrow was the start of a holiday, and both Jiang Qiuran and Chen Yusheng were heading out on trips.

Senior Zhou Jialu had also made a rare return to the dorm, so Liu Yuanyuan eagerly chattered away with them,

too busy to even glance at her phone.

Truth be told, even if she had seen Xue Tao’s messages, she wouldn’t have bothered replying.

More pressing matters occupied Liu Yuanyuan’s mind.

"Yusheng, come on, tell me… what’s it like with your boyfriend?"

Liu Yuanyuan’s face was alight with gossip.

She had no interest in Xue Tao, but as an inexperienced girl, she couldn’t help being curious about… adult matters.

Especially when it came to Chen Yusheng, the naturally expressionless ice queen—it was hard to imagine her being sweet and intimate with Su Bai, let alone… well, that.

At the moment, Chen Yusheng was packing her backpack for the trip.

Hearing Liu Yuanyuan’s nosy question, she answered without hesitation:

"It’s fun."

"…Hah."

Succinct as ever.

Liu Yuanyuan even blushed.

Then again, Chen Yusheng was the type to post those kinds of bold social media updates—she had no qualms about being open.

That kind of unashamed honesty? Liu Yuanyuan admitted to herself she could never pull it off.

If she had been with Su Bai like that, she’d be too embarrassed to let anyone know.

She’d probably even try to hide it.

A girl’s first time was valuable, after all. Liu Yuanyuan planned to keep up the pristine "untouched jade" act until marriage, so she could leverage it for a better deal with a high-quality man.

What if… it was already gone?

Well, there were always ways to fix that~

So seeing Chen Yusheng’s blunt honesty, Liu Yuanyuan couldn’t help thinking the girl was a little too naive.

If she and Su Bai ever broke up, and she later wanted to marry into wealth? Her value would take a nosedive.

People’s personalities could be worlds apart.

Meanwhile, as Chen Yusheng packed, she tore open a freshly delivered package.

The moment the dorm girls saw the product inside, their expressions shifted awkwardly.

Bulk pack!

Without batting an eye, Chen Yusheng stuffed the entire box into her backpack.

If anything, she looked a little smug.

She’d picked this brand carefully on JD.com, tailored to Su Bai’s… preferences.

Ordered yesterday, delivered to campus today.

Chen Yusheng had no plans to become a young mother.

As she packed, she couldn’t help reminiscing, a dreamy, lovestruck smile spreading across her face.

On the other side of the room, Zhou Jialu was also packing.

Compared to Chen Yusheng, her luggage was far more elaborate—mostly an assortment of personal items and flashy designer clothes.

All gifts from Su Bai, of course.

Naturally, her roommates only knew they were from a new boyfriend, unaware of Su Bai’s involvement.

Hehe~

Zhou Jialu decided to keep it a secret for now. Let everyone assume her boyfriend was some old, unattractive guy from outside campus—it’d make them feel better.

On the other hand, if she flaunted her relationship with Su Bai, people would start wondering: Who’s the real girlfriend here, her or Chen Yusheng?

Zhou Jialu had no interest in competing over that.

What she wanted was the role of "housekeeper."

So with perfect nonchalance, she watched Chen Yusheng tuck the bulk-packaged personal items into her bag.

Smirking, she pulled out her phone and messaged Su Bai.

[Zhou Jialu: Ahem, dear underclassman~ Your girlfriend’s really prepared for this trip, huh?]

[Su Bai: [peeking_emoji]]

[Su Bai: Wow, senior, you’re sneaky. Taking secret photos?]

[Su Bai: [judging_emoji]]

[Zhou Jialu: Pfft, it’s not sneaky! I’m just sharing glimpses of your girlfriend’s daily life! Don’t you wanna know what Yusheng’s like in the dorm?]

[Su Bai: Okay, fair. So what’s she usually like? Surely not buying… that stuff every day?]

[Zhou Jialu: Normally, she’s the queen of aloofness. But according to Liu Yuanyuan—who’s been around a lot lately—Yusheng’s been randomly giggling to herself lately, like she’s got a condition.]

[Zhou Jialu: Tsk. Such an innocent girl, corrupted by a certain someone. Shame~]

Bantering with Su Bai, she finished packing.

She wouldn’t be joining the Class 510 group trip—what kind of senior would crash a underclassmen outing? Boring.

Besides, Su Bai needed his space. Men were like yo-yos; you had to let them spin freely before reeling them back in.

That’s how you kept the bearings smooth.

For Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhou Jialu was heading to another city for a butler training camp, organized by an uncle from Xia Lin’s Family.

The instructor? A revered elder who’d once served Xia Lin’s household.

An opportunity like this was rare.

Zhou Jialu planned to use the time to restore herself to peak condition—just in time for some friendly military exercises with Su Bai after the holidays.

Meanwhile, Liu Yuanyuan was still pestering Chen Yusheng for details, though the latter’s sparse, occasionally shocking replies left her mentally reeling.

The dorm buzzed with the warm, chaotic harmony unique to girls’ rooms—nothing like the backstabbing drama outsiders imagined of a "Goddess Dorm."

The only one not basking in the cheer was Jiang Qiuran.

The usually anime-obsessed, doll-like beauty seemed unusually distracted tonight.
