Chapter 628: I Didn’t Expect You All to Be So Reserved (Part 1)

"Jeez, Xiao Nian, what took you so long to open the door? We’ve been waiting forever."

Shen Nian had just opened the door when she heard Qi Yunzhi’s voice. Standing beside Qi Yunzhi were none other than Chu Lingxiu and Wang Chunhua.

"You... why are you all here?"

Shen Nian truly hadn’t expected that the ones knocking on her door at this hour would be her three roommates.

"You’ll have to ask your man about that."

"Hmm?"

"It was Lu Cheng. He came to find us this morning. He was worried about you being alone and asked us to come keep you company."

Exasperated by Qi Yunzhi’s vague remark, Chu Lingxiu stepped in to explain.

"Oh, I see!"

Now Shen Nian understood. ’So Lu Cheng didn’t just get up early and leave me a note,’ she thought. ’He also went all the way to my school to get my roommates, all because he was worried I wouldn’t be safe in the hotel by myself.’

A warm, fuzzy feeling spread through Shen Nian’s heart, and a smile blossomed on her face.

"Whoa, look at you two, showing off your love! Good thing it’s just us. If it were anyone else from school, they’d be dying of jealousy! But seriously, Xiao Nian, your man is really good to you. In any case, he’s passed our test!"

Qi Yunzhi had always thought Shen Nian was getting the short end of the stick by marrying so young. But after truly seeing how well Lu Cheng treated her, Qi Yunzhi finally understood why Shen Nian had been so willing to marry him at such a young age.

Besides, not only was Lu Cheng good to Shen Nian, he was also handsome!

Shen Nian had no idea Qi Yunzhi was already spinning such elaborate tales in her head, but even if she did, she wouldn’t have bothered explaining anything.

’No matter how she and Lu Cheng started, all that mattered now was that they were deeply in love. That was enough.’

"Oh, really? And if he hadn’t performed so well today, how exactly were you planning to fail him?"

Shen Nian found Qi Yunzhi’s words amusing. ’It seems my roommate has started to see herself as my family,’ she thought. ’But I have to admit, it’s a pretty nice feeling.’

"Of course! You’re the flower of our dorm, not to mention the belle of the entire school! He can’t just pluck a flower like you that easily! We naturally have to put him to the test! But, seeing as he’s behaved so well, we can skip the inspection."

"So that’s how it is!"

"Yep, yep, that’s exactly right! We have to let him know you’ve got us, your family, backing you up! It’s great that he’s good to you now, but he has to stay that way forever! Otherwise, there are plenty of guys at our school willing to chase after you. He should know he’s always at risk of losing you!"

"Alright, alright, you’re right about everything!"

Shen Nian shook her head and smiled. She was really growing to like this girl, Qi Yunzhi, more and more. ’I wonder what kind of man she’ll end up with someday,’ she mused.

"Okay, okay, enough about us! Let me see what kind of place you two stayed in yesterday! Wow, this room is nice!"

Qi Yunzhi walked inside as she spoke, marveling at the room.

Shen Nian’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly followed her. ’Last night, she and Lu Cheng had a very... wild night in here. What if Qi Yunzhi sees something...?’

’Even though she and Lu Cheng were a legally married couple and anything they did was perfectly normal, it would still be a bit awkward if her roommate saw evidence of it.’
